When he arrived at Yunshao Courtyard, Xue Wu asked the maid to arrange a room for him, and said to him: "Let's live here temporarily these days, and when I settle down, we will rent or buy a shop to start the business, so in the next few days, you can help me take a look around the city, where are there houses to rent or sell, and the location is best near Lingyao Academy." ”

Only then did Ye Yun know that the owner's store had not yet opened, but he was not worried that the owner was lying to him, first, he had nothing to deceive, and secondly, as soon as the owner made a move, he invited him to a meal of more than 300 spirit beads, and arranged such a good place for him to live, which was enough to show that the owner was not short of money.

Since he is not short of money, he can just follow the owner with peace of mind.

"Okay, don't worry, I will definitely do what you explain."

Xue Wan: "My surname is Xue, my name is Sister-in-law, you can call me Sister Xue or Sister Wu, don't call me the owner, I feel that I am old." ”

Ye Yun immediately called "Sister Wu".

The next day, Xue Wan and Ye Yun went out, one went to Lingyao Academy to take the assessment, and the other went to the street to look for a shop.

In the second assessment of Lingyao Academy, Teacher Zeng brought more than 80 people who passed the assessment yesterday to a tall tower.

The tower was towering and covered a vast area, and a group of people stood underneath, lined with small as a swarm of ants.

"Many of you should have heard of this tower, this is the Tower of Babel that has stood here since ancient times, it is even older than the history of Lingyao Academy, it is rumored that the Tower of Babel existed in ancient times, and it is a passage for people from the Nether to go to the Upper Realm, but unfortunately this passage was closed a long time ago, and the path of ascension of Nether monks was also cut off, and I don't know when it will be opened."

Teacher Zeng sighed, and then said: "Today, your assessment place is the first floor of this Babel Tower, the eternal labyrinth, the maze is changing every moment, the exit is not fixed, in the maze, there are countless levels, and there are countless dangers. ”

He swept his gaze over the young faces present one by one, "Once you enter the labyrinth, you are conceited of life and death, so before you go in, you have to think carefully about whether you want to give up." ”

Everyone was in a commotion, was the second assessment so exciting? Is life and death involved? In the past, even if Zenbook Academy failed the assessment, it could still ensure the safety of candidates.

Many of the people present have heard of the prestige of the Tower of Babel, which has a total of 100 floors, each floor is a separate testing ground, the higher the number of layers, the more dangerous it is, and no one has ever broken into the top floor.

The Eternal Labyrinth is the first layer of the Babel Tower's testing ground, although it is the lowest layer, but for these people who come to participate in the assessment, the danger factor is also quite high.

And if you die inside, you're really dead, but there's no chance to do it all over again.

Many people showed hesitation.

At this time, someone raised his hand: "Teacher, I, I give up." ”

Teacher Zeng neither reprimanded nor ridiculed, but nodded very calmly, as if giving up this assessment was a common thing, which made the candidate who was the first to give up breathe a sigh of relief.

That's right, it's just an assessment, you can come back next year if you give up this year, but if you lose your life here this year, then there will be no chance to do it again.

Then a few more people gave up on the assessment.

But most people still want to go in and give it a try, young and vigorous, they feel that since they have finally made it to the second level, how can they give up without trying?

Besides, even if the maze is very dangerous, they are not without a little strength, maybe they can turn the danger into a disaster and successfully get out of the maze and pass the assessment?

One of the top 10 illusions in life: I will be the lucky one.

Teacher Zeng looked at the rest of the people: "Since you have all decided to continue to participate in the assessment, let's go in, I hope you can all come out smoothly." ”

Although he knew it was impossible.

Xue Wu blended in the crowd and walked into the Tower of Babel.

As soon as she stepped inside, she appeared in the labyrinth, and it was randomly thrown, and she had no way of telling where she was in the labyrinth, or how far she was from the exit.

However, to her surprise, the aura in this place is much stronger than that in the outside world, and it is almost in her space.

Xue Wu released her divine sense, spreading out in all directions with herself as the center of the circle, and all the scenes within a radius of hundreds of meters were perceived by her, forming a 3D stereoscopic image in her mind.

This makes it much easier to choose a direction.

Xue Wu turned her steps and walked to the left, and after walking a distance, a group of ghost-faced bees flew out of nowhere.

This is probably one of the dangers that Mr. Zeng said.

The ghost-faced bee is only a first-order demon beast, and its individual strength is not strong, but they usually appear in groups, and their flight speed is not slow.

The tail stinger of the ghost-faced bee is poisonous, and if it is not pulled out of the body in time, the person will be poisoned and die.

It can be said that it is an extremely difficult existence among first-order demon beasts, and its lethality is comparable to that of second-order demon beasts.

But for Xue Wu, this is just a group of monsters.

She stood there and didn't run, she raised her hand, and a small flame appeared from her fingertips, although the flame was small, the temperature was extremely high, and as soon as it appeared, the air around her was distorted.

As the ghost-faced bees surrounded her, the cluster of flames whirled into a basin-sized fireball, enveloping most of them.

Suddenly, a scorching smell rose, and a puff of black dust fell to the ground.

This dust is the scum that those ghost-faced bees were burned.

The remaining dozens of ghost-faced bees flew away at a faster speed than they had come, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Xue Wu continued to walk forward.

Suddenly, she looked up, but saw nothing.

At that moment, she felt like she was being watched.

In the control center on the first floor of the Tower of Babel, a group of people gathered in front of the projection of the Eternal Labyrinth, watching the performance of those candidates inside.

At the moment when Xue Wu raised her head, a voice said "Huh" in surprise, "This little girl's perception is quite keen." ”

An old man said proudly: "Of course, the apprentice I fancy is wrong?" ”

This old man is the old man who was responsible for calculating the stone in the previous first level assessment.

In fact, he was none other than Xiao Shengtian, the dean of Lingyao Academy, and the person who spoke out earlier was Great Elder Wei Ziping.

Hearing this, he snorted: "Why did this little girl become your apprentice?" Whether she can pass the assessment of this level is another matter. ”

Xiao Shengtian glanced at him, "Then why don't we make a bet on whether she can break through this eternal labyrinth?" ”

Wei Ziping actually felt that Xue Ao was more double-eyed in the same batch of candidates, but sometimes it took a little luck to walk the maze, not to mention, the little girl's strength was only in the late stage of Qi refining, thinking that there was a second-order demon beast guarding the exit of the maze, he felt that Xue Ao might not be able to get out of the maze.

"Okay, bet, bet, if you lose, burn the jar of jade ice that has been buried for fifty years to me." Wei Ziping has been thinking about his old friend's good wine for many years.

Xiao Shengtian: "No problem, then if you lose, you will give the fan you recently refined to my apprentice as a meeting gift." ”
