The scorching sun was hanging high, the sky seemed to be on fire, and on the No. 9 small martial arts arena and steel martial arts arena of the Qilin Academy Palace, five or six hundred eight- and nine-year-old children were participating in the cruel entrance test. Only by passing a total of seven Qilin Trials can you become a new student in the Academy and receive an education from the world's most famous university.

In the special stands, the parents of the children were anxiously watching, some were frighteningly high-ranking officials, some were businessmen with huge fortunes, some were big families with family roots, some were officers who had been in the army for generations, and more were ordinary people.

The Qilinzi trial is a major event that everyone is looking forward to, not to mention that this trial is different from the past, the few big clans in the summer capital city have made an appointment to send their own school-age children to participate in the selection on this day, which has attracted the attention of more city citizens, and even many people have traveled thousands of miles to see the excitement.

Therefore, on today's viewing platform, there are ten times as many spectators as in the past, and I saw that the stage was crowded with people, crowded one after another, and could hardly accommodate it.

Parents stared at the venue, looking forward to it, hoping that their children could survive all the levels, successfully enter the Qilin Academy, become the one in a thousand unicorns, and bring incomparable glory to the family.

Every year, there are only less than 800 places for the Qilin Academy to recruit Qilin children, and the reason why there are so few is not that the Palace intends to control the number of people, but that only so many people can generally meet the requirements.

Moreover, the quota of the unicorn, even if you have great power, you can't get it, no matter how much money you have, you can't buy it, and you can't fake it with all the ingenuity in the world, you can only fight for it through the trial of real materials.

The number of people who signed up for this year is still in the tens of thousands, and the enrollment plan began last year, and thousands of people rushed to the summer capital city with their children according to the announced time, to strive for this opportunity that is less than one percent.

Most of the children start to prepare from an early age, carry out all kinds of cultivation and exercise, and teachers will be hired to teach them if they are from good families.

Although they are immature, they need to cultivate their physique in the most perfect way, and they must not indulge like ordinary children, let alone be harmed by excessive exercise or misguide, and they are healthy, strong, tenacious, and spiritual, so that they can have the highest chance of passing the trial.

The children who participate in the trials are eight or nine years old, and they have only one chance in their lives, and when it comes to the martial arts arena, it is time to decide their fate.

Nearly 600 people participated in the trial, and if two or three people could be selected, it would be considered a lot, and it was normal for no one to be selected.

Of course, this time, dozens of children from well-known clans participated, and the pass rate was bound to double.

The first level of the trial is a long-distance run, and the rules are very simple, as long as you run three laps around the arena in a limited time, you can clear the level, and the successful person can move on to the next project.

This is one of the most basic challenges, a test of physical strength, endurance and perseverance, but few children who spend a lot of money to participate in the trials will not be able to pass it.

Of course, some physical conditions are too poor, just to try their luck, or to join in the fun, most of them will be eliminated in this project.

In a corner of the martial arts arena, there is a huge labyrinth like wheels, there is a tunnel under the labyrinth, and there are dozens of strong horses in the tunnel, which pull the maze and rotate rapidly under the drive of the groom, making a "boom" sound.

There are a total of eighteen entrances on the "wheels", leading to the paths in the labyrinth, which resemble randomly distributed and intertwined spokes.

These trails eventually lead to an exit at the central "Wheel Axle", which can be passed through the second level, the "Wheel Labyrinth", within a limited amount of time.

God knows what this strange big creature was testing, a group of more than thirty children entered first, many of them from all over the world, helping each other, leaning against the wall, stumbling and staggering forward.

It didn't take long for most of the people to be dizzy and unable to sit still, let alone move forward. Some people felt so bad in their chests and abdomen that they fell to the ground and vomited, while others even fainted and fell unconscious.

Not long ago, they were still alive and well, but now they are as embarrassed as they are.

Looking down from the high stands, you can see everything in the labyrinth. Some parents couldn't help but cry bitterly when they saw their children fall, while others trembled with anxiety when they saw their children struggling to find a way out, as if countless ants were eating and biting in their hearts.

"Look at the dolls of the Pan Gang Clan!"

Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the crowd, and I saw a boy with black hair hanging down his shoulders in the wheel maze, disdainful of holding on to the wall, swaggering down the path, the rotation of the maze had little effect on it, almost negligible, and it was daunting.

Behind his clothes is embroidered a colorful divine dog squatting on the ground, the treasure is solemn, the god is majestic, it is the symbol of the Pan Gu clan.

However, the strange thing is that this divine dog also wears a golden crown that looks like a dragon's horn on its head, which looks quite nondescript.

It turns out that the Pangyu clan has a great relationship with the Qilin clan, and the colorful divine dog is not wearing a dragon horn, but a unicorn horn, so that they can show that they have the unicorn blood passed down from the golden generation.

"Why is this guy running so fast? It's gone in a blink of an eye......

"Fellows of the White Horse Clan!"

The second group had just entered the labyrinth, and another exclamation rang out.

A young man with a scarf around his neck and a white ponytail on his braided hair was the first to rush into the labyrinth, like a gust of wind, flowing quickly through the path, the maze only turned half a circle, and before the speed was really fast, he had already found the exit and disappeared.

"I heard that the White Horse Clan is not only good at riding horses, but also good at running, today can be regarded as an insight!"

"Isn't it? It's really an eye-opener! That White Horse kid actually uses speed to take advantage of opportunism, I have never seen anyone who can pass the second level like this, it seems that the White Horse Clan is going to produce talents again!"

The teenager broke through the second hurdle resolutely, leaving behind many struggling interlopers, and also leaving a lasting sigh for the spectators in the stands.

Towards the end of the trial of the second group of people, with the gorgeous appearance of a purple-haired girl, the entire martial arts arena was a sensation.

Almost all of them looked at one person, it was an extremely beautiful little girl, with long purple hair like a waterfall, and a pair of eyes that were also dreamlike purple, like two purple stars.

She was dressed in a silver-gold dress, high-waisted pony boots, and a purple hairband on her head, like a purple aura flashing out, and from this moment on, the whole world would be watching her.

She is already extremely exquisite, flawless, and has the qualifications to bring disaster to the country and the people, with unusual hair color and eye color, beyond the ordinary temperament, like a heavenly man, not like the mortal world.

The girl did not walk the labyrinth path like the others, but jumped directly onto the narrow wall, spread her arms like birds, and walked briskly to the center, no matter how fast the maze spun, she could not shake her.

After a while, she jumped out of the door and disappeared from the people's eyes, not looking at anyone the whole time, and spending less time than the young men of the White Horse clan.

"The Purple Star Clan...... Is this the legendary Purple Star Clan?"

"I didn't come in vain this time! I actually had the fate to meet the peerless figure of the Purple Star Clan......"

"I have long heard of the beauty and nobility of the Purple Star Clan, and after seeing it with my own eyes, I know that this clan really deserves its reputation!"

......

The exclamations and clamours in the stands have endured for a long time, which shows the great influence of the Purple Star family.

Although the Purple Star Clan does not belong to the list of founders of the Xia Kingdom, they have an extremely noble status in the current Xia Kingdom, which can be said to be second only to the Lei One Clan.

The origin of this people is mysterious, few people knew about it before the establishment of the Xia Kingdom, and even there is no record of a single word in the history books, only in the ethereal legends.

After the establishment of the Xia Kingdom, since Emperor Tianwu defeated the Tianshu royal family with the ambition of hegemony in the battle of the Heavenly Fall, the golden generation rejected the imperial power, refused the throne, and led the Xia Kingdom, and even the whole world, into unprecedented stability and prosperity, this clan appeared in the eyes of the world, after many twists and turns, the Clan joined the Xia Kingdom under the rule and became the respected and admired Purple Star Clan.

The Purple Star Clan has never lacked legends, all kinds of stories, varied, bizarre, everything, but it has never been confirmed.

Some people say that they, like the Wood Immortal Clan and the Gray Demon Clan who live in seclusion in the world of the Sea of Smoke, originally did not belong to this world, but were an intelligent race from the outer regions with a higher civilization.

Some people also say that they are people of this world, but they are ancient alien bloodlines that survived the destruction of the world tens of thousands of years ago, and they are very different from today's people, with the same origin but different sects.

Some people also say that this clan was originally just ordinary mortals, because they found the purple divine stone that fell from the sky, and they were created by the heavens, so they changed their bloodline and appearance, and possessed incredible mysterious powers.

There are even rumors that the seemingly noble Purple Star Clan actually has a great relationship with the evil Blood Demon Clan, and it is definitely not a good generation, even if they have been naturalized in the Xia Kingdom for nearly a thousand years, have deep roots, and are admired by the world, it is not too much to describe the existence of this clan with "not my race, their hearts must be different......

......

The endless trials are still in full swing, as the heirs of the great clans compete with each other and appear to be extremely hot, and from time to time there will be waves in the stands.

"I didn't expect the little immortal of the Xianlu clan to be stuck in the third level of the 'waterfall wall', didn't it say that the 'Narcissus Deer' is one of the most water-friendly clans on land?

"Hey, you don't know this, right? The Xianlu clan came out of the golden generation of 'deer riders', and there are three major surnames, the Huangpu family, the Shen family, and the Nie family. That young man is from the Nie family from the northern grasslands, what's so strange about not being good at water?"

"Oh, I see......"

"What kind of clan is that baby? This fourth level 'Tongtiansuo' is the most difficult pass in my opinion, I was in this level with hatred, he passed the level as if playing......"

"I don't have a family emblem on my body, so I can't see it!"

"What kind of family? Look at the clothes he wears, they are clean and clean, without a trace of patterns, is it obviously the surname of the country raised by Hongdu Xuegong!"

"The surname of the country? Oh, it turned out to be the surname of the country, and it is said that the surname of the country produces talents, and it is really true!"

“......”

"Boom!"

A bell rang, the tremor sounded like thunder, and the pleasant clear sound slowly spread, and the girl from the Purple Star clan was the first to ring the white bell and successfully passed the test.

She rang the bell and left immediately, not caring at all.

"Boom!"

There was another sound, and the young man of the White Horse clan also passed the test.

Immediately afterwards, a young man with a tense little face, step by step came to the pure white giant bell that was taller than an adult man, with a worried expression on his face, stretched out his hand, and hesitantly patted the bell.

He went through a lot of hardships and hurdles, and finally came here, but when he reached the last step, he did not dare to ring the bell.

"Smack!"

There was a muffled light sound, and the giant bell did not respond.

The sound was like a slap in the young man's face, and he turned pale and fell to his knees, knowing that he had lost the election after all.

The enforcers forcibly carried away the paralyzed teenager, and another person walked up to the bell stand to meet the final challenge.

......

Ringing the bell is the final level of the trial, some people say that it is the easiest level, and some people say that it is the most difficult level.

In the previous pass, no matter how good you are, if you don't ring the bell, it means elimination, and no matter how unsatisfactory you are, as long as you ring the bell, you will become a noble unicorn.

The white bell is also known as the iron heart clock, which is nearly 1,000 years ago, the legendary caster of the Xia Kingdom, Candle Longzi, with strange iron and different stones to create in a mysterious way.

It is said that this bell is solid, carved from a single piece of white stone on the outside, and filled with unknown treasure iron, which can only be ringed by people with special qualifications or who inspire special qualifications.

At one point, it was suggested that the first level of the Kirin Trial should be set as a bell.

However, it turns out that this is a magical strange bell, and some people can't ring it at first, but after going through many trials, there is a certain chance that it will ring......

Iron heart clock, as its name suggests, its heart is iron, cold and ruthless, ringing from time to time, it seems to all depend on your own mind, happy to let you pass, unhappy not to let the body pass, success or not, like the will of God.

But it is undeniable that the children of those big clans who have inherited bloodlines often have a much higher chance of passing than ordinary people.

"Boom!"

There was a loud bang, resounding through the steel arena, and everyone was stunned.

A short-haired boy punched the iron heart clock, his short but strong body seemed to be electrocuted in an instant, and his slightly purple hair stood up like a hedgehog.

On the giant bell, there is a trace of electric light visible to the naked eye, such as countless small snakes flowing indiscriminately, making it make a shocking loud sound, like rolling thunder on a sunny day, which is terrifying.

"The son of the Thunder Clan!" someone exclaimed.

"See clearly, that is not an ordinary Thunder Clan child, it is the son of the current Lei family's head of the Lei family, the son of the Great Duke of Lei, the great-grandson of the thunder!"

"I know, that guy's name is Lei Heng, he is the child of Lei Gong and the princess of the Purple Clan, it is said that when he was born, he came out horizontally, so he was named Lei Heng, and he is one of the double prides of the Thunder Clan's generation, which is amazing!"

......

The people in the stands were full of praise, and the shocking wave brought by the short-haired boy was only high and not low compared with the girl of the Purple Star clan.

The boy withdrew his fist, the current on the clock quickly dissipated, his erect hair also fell back, and his eyes that were half-covered by bangs were full of cold arrogance, and he stepped off the stage with full aura.

The back of his clothes is embroidered with a pure black seal "Lei" character, which is the family emblem of the Lei family, which is simple, but domineering and noble.

In the establishment of the Xia Kingdom, the Lei clan was second only to the Qilin clan and the mysterious nine-tailed fox clan, and the ancestor Lei Shuai was called the only heroic man who could compete with Emperor Tianwu by later generations.

For thousands of years, contrary to the deteriorating Qilin clan, the inheritance of the Lei clan has not been severed, but has become more and more prosperous.

More than 300 years ago, the Heavenly Tree Royal Clan broke through the Xia Capital City, and the last Heavenly Warrior Lin Cheng fell in a tragic war, and the only hope in the Black Iron Generation of the Qilin Clan was lost.

Since then, the Qilin clan has fallen into the abyss of sinking, and under the trouble of black heart disease, one generation has become weaker and weaker than the next, and finally on the verge of despair, and the clan is about to be wiped out.

In the past three hundred years, thanks to the strength of the Lei clan, they were able to barely resist the large-scale invasions of the Tianshu royal clan again and again, crushing their ambition to conquer Xia Zhou that they had never abandoned.
