Now that the Holy Emperor is near everyone, Zhang Dongli, Wu Yun and the others naturally dare not directly attack Xia Yan in words, but in terms of demeanor, they are still full of hostility towards Xia Yan. Xia Yan is a newcomer, but his status in the Heavenly Palace has soared, and it is impossible not to be jealous. Unless, Xia Yan can show unrivaled strength, which makes these people fearful in their hearts.

"Thirteen!"

Jiao Ziming stepped forward first and drew out a lot, with thirteen numbers written on it, "Xia Yan, I am also the first batch to be assessed, you can draw it quickly and see how many numbers there are!"

It didn't matter how many batches of cultivators were assessed, there were more than ninety cultivators in the Heavenly Palace who were assessed, and they were divided into five batches, with one batch every two hours.

Every assessor has to start with the first-level devil array, because no matter how difficult the devil array he can pass, the number of cultivation points is cumulative, and no one will waste such an opportunity.

For example, if a cultivator has passed the Devil Array of the first level of difficulty within half an hour, then he can take the Devil Array assessment of the second level of difficulty after taking a short rest. And if it takes two hours to pass the first-level difficulty Devil Array, then you can also take the second-level difficulty Devil Array assessment after a little rest.

Of course, if it takes two hours to pass the Devil Array of the first level of difficulty, then there is almost no hope of passing the Devil Array of the second level of difficulty.

Xia Yan nodded to Jiao Ziming, then raised his foot and stepped to the front of the box, stretched out his hand and took out a sign in the box, and looked at it, and there was a 'one' on it.

The Holy Emperor and the others, who were standing on the other side of the box, naturally saw the lot drawn by Xia Yan.

Xia Yan had a feeling that the Holy Emperor always seemed to have his eyes on him, intentionally or unintentionally, but Xia Yan also pretended not to care, he couldn't use his eyes to stare at the Holy Emperor.

"Xia Yan, you drew 'one'. Yang Kai was behind Xia Yan and said with a smile.

"Yes, the first batch of assessments. Xia Yan accepted the sign, held it in the palm of his hand, took a few steps back to the side, and the people behind continued to draw lots.

"Hehe, it's really good luck, but there is no reward in this lottery, it would be nice if you drew the first one to give a reward. Yang Kai shook his head and said with some pity.

His voice was low, but the Holy Emperor could hear it.

"Humph!"

Yang Kai was about to step forward to draw lots, when a low snort came from the side, and a figure suddenly plugged in. Gao Song took a stride and grabbed ahead of Yang Kai. Gao Song was despised by Xia Yan in front of the old man yesterday, and his heart was itching with hatred, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light when he looked at Xia Yan.

Xia Yan looked at Gao Song, the corners of his mouth raised, and he sneered.

Yang Kai was preempted by Gao Song, and the corners of his mouth also twitched, but he didn't say anything. There is no way, he does not have the strength of Gao Song, Gao Song is a strong person among the students of the Heavenly Palace, and he is only a mid-stage Spirit Sect, which is far from the same.

"Eleven!" Gao Song drew out the lot, looked at the numbers on it, sneered in his nostrils, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied with the reading, "I am the first batch to be assessed!"

After Gao Song finished speaking, he turned around and looked at Xia Yan fiercely.

"Xia Yan, after the assessment today, how about we have a fight?" Gao Song looked at Xia Yan with provocative eyes, and challenged Xia Yan in front of the Holy Emperor and others.

The rules of the Heavenly Palace do not prohibit challenges, this can be regarded as a competition, which can hone the combat experience of cultivators.

"How do you fight?" Xia Yan frowned slightly and asked.

"Hehe, of course I won't take advantage of you, in this way, we will all gamble on the cultivation value obtained today, if you win against me, then I will transfer all the cultivation value obtained today to you. And if I defeat you, then you will transfer all the cultivation points you have obtained to me, how about it?" Gao Song said with a sneer.

"Lord Holy Emperor, Ye Lao, and the three other patrols are all witnesses. Gao Song turned his gaze, respectfully saluted the five people, and then turned his eyes to Xia Yan.

Xia Yan pondered for a moment and looked at the Holy Emperor Ye Lao and the others.

"This Gao Song is a famous master in the Zhang Patrol camp, much more powerful than the average late-stage Spirit Sect, and it seems that the strength of the three patrols is not much worse. Studying with such people was also an opportunity for me to hone myself. Xia Yan pondered in his heart.

Seeing Xia Yan's hesitation, Gao Song couldn't help but sneer and said, "Hehe, don't you even have the courage to do this, Xia Yan?" You, but the genius newcomer recommended by Liu Patrol, among these cultivators in the Heavenly Palace, you are all geniuses, much more powerful than us people, don't you even dare to respond to my challenge?"

Gao Song will be Xia Yan!

"Shameless!"

Yang Kai couldn't help but curse in a low voice.

"Huh?" Gao Song's eyes shot at Yang Kai with a fierce light, and the momentum on his body suddenly condensed, and the powerful momentum instantly enveloped Yang Kai, Yang Kai involuntarily took a step back, staring at Gao Song with a miserable face, the gap between his strength and Gao Song was too big.

"Poof~"

At this time, a gentle spiritual power suddenly came from behind Yang Kai, supporting Yang Kai's body, and instantly defeating Gao Song's condensed momentum, it was Xu Changming from Liu's patrol camp.

Gao Song challenged Xia Yan, and the cultivators in the Zhang Patrol and Jian Patrol camp all had gloating expressions and even whispered about it. And the cultivators in Liu's inspection camp were all a little worried.

"This Gao Song, it's really shameless, he actually challenged a newcomer who just came to the Heavenly Palace!"

"It's clearly bullying our academics!"

“......”

The cultivators of the academic school were all a little angry, Gao Song challenged Xia Yan in front of the Holy Emperor, Ye Lao and others, although Xia Yan was a newcomer, but if he didn't accept it, then who knew what the Holy Emperor would think of Xia Yan?

This Gao Song, indeed, despicable.

"Gao Song, Xia Yan is just a newcomer, and he hasn't done a day of formal cultivation in the Heavenly Palace. And you, who have been cultivating in the Heavenly Palace for more than 40 years, have to challenge a newcomer! You are bullying people. After Xu Changming defeated Gao Song's momentum, he took a step forward and looked at Gao Song, "In this way, if you want to challenge, I will accept your challenge instead of Xia Yan, and after the routine assessment, we will start fighting in the Tumble Stone Formation!"

As Xu Changming spoke, he smiled at Xia Yan and signaled Xia Yan not to be nervous.

Xu Changming is the strongest cultivator in the Liu Patrol camp, and he has the responsibility to protect the cultivators below from being bullied, but he is alone, and many times he still can't protect everyone. Especially Wu Yun and Zhang Dongli, who were in the Jian patrol camp, were almost the same as his strength, and he was really powerless to deal with so many people alone.

"Hehe, Xu Changming, do you think I'm afraid of you?" Gao Song smiled strangely when he saw Xu Changming standing up for Xia Yan and Yang Kai, and his eyes rolled gloomily.

"I accept your challenge!" Xia Yan suddenly said behind Xu Changming.

"Huh?"

"What?"

"This Xia Yan actually dared to accept Gao Song's challenge, he didn't want the cultivation value, right? If he loses the cultivation value obtained in the first routine assessment, then he can only cultivate in the devil's array for the next month. ”

"Hmph, self-defeating fellow!"

The people in the Zhang patrol camp and Jian patrol camp suddenly let out all kinds of discussions, and looked at Xia Yan with an idiot look.

These discussions naturally heard Xia Yan's ears.

"Wait and see, who doesn't know whether to live or die, and I don't know yet. I want you to know that I, Xia Yan, am not a soft persimmon!" Xia Yan said in his heart, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Gao Song.

"Xia Yan, are you sure?" Xu Changming was slightly surprised, then turned to look at Xia Yan and asked suspiciously.

"Yes, I'm sure, accept this Gao Song's challenge!" Xia Yan nodded heavily.

"Hehe, okay, then it's decided, after the routine assessment, the two of us will see you in the stone formation!" Gao Song didn't expect Xia Yan to really accept his challenge, and laughed after being stunned.

"Xia Yan, don't be fooled! Gao Song has been cultivating in the Heavenly Palace for many years, and his strength is very strong, you ...... compete with him" Yang Kai pulled Xia Yan's sleeve and said anxiously in a low voice.

"It's okay, I also want to see how strong Gao Song's strength is!" Xia Yan shook his head, his words were extremely firm, and at the same time there was a sense of arrogance.

Yang Kai opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.

"The challenge of the two cultivators of our Heavenly Palace!" the Holy Emperor spoke at this time, "Night Elder, the three of you are on patrol, and when the assessment of the Heavenly Palace is over, we might as well go over and have a look." Well, Gao Song and Xia Yan, if any of you wins in the end, I will give him a reward, and the reward cultivation value will be doubled!"

The Holy Emperor said in front of everyone.

The Holy Emperor's words made everyone gasp, and the cultivation value doubled, that is to say, there were originally one hundred and fifty cultivation points, then it doubled to three hundred points.

Such a good thing is rare. Moreover, the Holy Emperor also watched the battle in person! If he behaved very well, the Holy Emperor looked at it differently, then he would not ...... in the future, "Now, the cultivators who have not yet drawn lots should speed up the lottery and draw lots, and then the assessment will begin!" The Holy Emperor looked around, and those cultivators who had not yet drawn lots hurriedly walked to the box to draw lots.

After half a tea time, the cultivators numbered one to twenty returned from the control room to the Devil Formation on the ground, and everyone was facing a Devil Formation. The number drawn by Xia Yan was number one, standing on the far left of the first row of the devil array, and to his right was a cultivator from the Jane Patrol camp, who was only in the early stage of the Spirit Sect realm.

"Let's go!"

With a sound coming from the control room, everyone entered the devil's array almost at the same time.

This is the first-level difficulty Devil Array, which is not very difficult for the strong of the Spirit Sect, but it will not be easy for the Spirit Sect to pass this first-level difficulty Devil Array in the early stage.

"Whoosh~"

As soon as Xia Yan entered the formation, a whip twitched from the left front with a strong wind, and Xia Yan's body moved sideways, avoiding the attack of the whip.

As soon as the space in front of him was blocked, a devil stood in front of Xia Yan and slammed into Xia Yan fiercely.

Xia Yan's footsteps staggered, his body leaned back slightly, the Dawn Sword in his hand was instantly unsheathed, and a black sword light flashed, and the devil's body that crashed into Xia Yan was instantly cut in two.
