Before dawn, the dew ** He Xiaoduo's hair.

She had been standing in the stone tower for a day and a night.

Standing here with her, including Yun Tianjia, Long Yuandong, He Dali, fifty members of the Guards Battalion, and the preparatory students selected by the Tuhao Empire from other regions except the six states of Western Xinjiang to participate in the academy's assessment, added together, a total of one hundred and forty-six people.

However, now only one hundred and thirty-nine remained, and seven were disqualified. For these seven men, after standing in a military posture for twelve hours, fainted.

In fact, the soul master's body has been tempered by soul power, and his physique is many times stronger than that of ordinary people, and the people standing here are all carefully selected elites among the young soul masters, regardless of physical strength, endurance, and spiritual power, they have a considerable foundation, and this should not have happened.

But it happened anyway.

He Xiaoduo felt a little nervous.

She knew in her heart how difficult these twelve hours were.

The rigor of the selection of students far exceeded her expectations.

The invigilator said that the First Soul Master Academy has the ability to protect the safety of any student. Therefore, at the selection site, even Dai Zhong, Wen Yanxin and other guards were not allowed to enter.

Here, she must put aside her status as the county lord for the time being, and honestly return to being an ordinary candidate waiting to be selected, without the slightest privilege.

It is gratifying that none of the seven people who were disqualified were brought by her. This made her very glad that she had been training Yun, Long, He and other pro-guard members for more than three months before, otherwise, she was not sure if everyone would be able to stand for so long.

The military posture continues.

The eight high-level soul masters were leisurely circling around the stone towers around the examination room, and they had no intention of stopping at all.

He Xiaoduo even suspected that if there was a bed here, they would have laid down and slept long ago.

The full name of Stone Tallinn is Agni Stone Tallinn, and some people call it Vermilion Bird Tallinn Array, which is the fence in the south of Shizhu Island, and the same as the Xuanwu Stonehenge in the north, which can be called a masterpiece of heaven and man.

The stone towers in the stone tower are high and low, with different shapes, all carved from the same kind of stone.

They have been standing quietly on the southern edge of Pillar Island for many, many years.

The rain washes the wind and the years erode it, and every stone in the stone tower forest has become mellow and convergent.

The smooth stone surface is covered with mottled black-brown moss. The moss peels off and grows again, over and over again, never stopping.

Plain, simple, elegant and quiet.

This is everyone's first impression of Stone Tallinn.

And then there's the big one.

Every year, more than a dozen stone towers are added here, and each additional one represents the fall of another strong man in the human race.

Stone Tower, in fact, is a cemetery forest.

The ultimate destination of the human powerhouses in the Blue Dragon Continent.

Perhaps by now, no one has made it clear how extensive the stone tower is and how many stone towers there are.

But if Stone Tallinn is just big, how can it be worthy of the title of "miracle on earth"?

Stone Tallinn is actually an ingenious and natural maze.

It may seem random, but it is well laid out.

Here, there is no winding water corridor, no pavilion wall courtyard, only one step at a time, one by one, all directions.

No matter how long or how far you walk, you'll feel like you're in the same place.

In the middle of the game, the direction is difficult to distinguish, but if you look down from a high altitude, its shape resembles a sacred bird flying with wings and flying Vermilion Bird, with colorful feathers, gorgeous and elegant.

Suzaku is a symbol of fire, and a tombstone is synonymous with darkness.

One is the Burning of Fire and the other is the Tomb of the Strong, two very different elements that have given this stone tower countless magical legends.

Every night, in the stone tower forest, there will be intermittent shadows howling, dark and cold wind, and during the day, there is never a trace of the sun.

In the tens of thousands of years since the establishment of Shizhu Island, no army has attempted to challenge this strange level, let alone overcome it head-on.

The Suzaku Tallinn Formation also has only one entrance, the entrance is at the sharp beak of the Suzaku and the exit is at the tail gate of the Suzaku Bird, which is open for one hour every morning and evening.

The section of the road between the entrances and exits is rarely visited because of its long and winding nature. People in the southern region mostly detour through the east and west side gates to enter the city.

Stone Tallinn, as quiet as ever.

At this moment, in a certain corner of Stone Tower, there were seven groups of no less than a hundred people standing at the same time, but they were completely unaware of each other's existence.

The size of the stone tower can be seen.

After a day and a night of physical and mental testing, everyone was very tired.

He Xiaoduo was drowsy and desperately opened her eyes wide.

A tall and thin invigilator slapped his face and said unhurriedly: "Yes, after standing for so long, there are only seven of them, and even I have to give you a thumbs up." However, if I leave all of you behind, I'm afraid I'll have to roll up the quilt and leave. ”

The tall and thin teacher is over seventy years old, surnamed Cai Mingyan, originally from Xijin Kingdom, seconded by the founding of the Soul Master Academy, and his face is full of acne marks and scars, sandwiched in the wrinkles of the ravines, looking ugly and vicissitudes.

However, no one dared to laugh at him for being ugly. Because of his cultivation, he was as high as the peak of the ninth order.

This is the existence that everyone present should look up to.

"So, we have to do it differently. What to test? Let me think about it. He pretended to pat his head and said, "Ah, there is." Well, those over the age of twenty-five will be listed!"

Nineteen people had no choice but to stand out of the queue, of which He Xiaoduo's personal guard battalion accounted for six, all of them were members of the Li Battalion and the Min Battalion, and Zhao Hu, the old captain of He Dali, Long Yuandong, and Yun Tianjia, was impressively listed.

He Xiaoduo was unwilling, and said: "Teacher, although they are more than twenty-five years old, their cultivation is not low, if the time goes back a few years, they can still be called elites." ”

"Whether it's elite or not, now it's up to me to decide. Cai Yan smiled and said, "I'm sorry everyone, I can't accommodate the rules of the hospital." ”

Zhao Hu and the other nineteen people knew that they were older, and they actually had a premonition about such a selection result. With deep nostalgia and reluctance, they waved goodbye to their former companions, turned around gloomily, and retreated to the sidelines.

Since he Xiaoduo wanted to cultivate for a long time, of course, he hoped that the younger the team members were, the better, but the truly talented soul masters were few, and in the eagle's beak pass, the range of options was not large, and after repeated trade-offs, nine sergeants over the age of twenty-five and less than thirty years old were finally recruited as team members, except for the three sacrificed in the Demon Flame Forest, there were still six left.

After people get along for a long time, they have feelings and tacit understanding, after He Xiaoduo returned to the Shield King's Mansion, he had more choices, but from beginning to end, he never thought of replacing the six older team members.

However, the principle that the Soul Master Academy only admits students under the age of twenty-five was determined by Shi Zhengyang at the beginning of his initiation of the academy.

He Xiaoduo has never agreed with this because six of the guards are overage, and he planned to negotiate with the hospital before the assessment, so as to let them relax the age limit.

Without the barrier of age, she believed that with the true strength of the guards, most of them should be able to be selected as official students of the academy.

Who knew that the enrollment process of the First Soul Master Academy was completely out of common sense, and she didn't get the opportunity to negotiate on an equal footing at all.

It had just begun, and out of the fifty people in the guard battalion, as many as six people had been eliminated. He Xiaoduo was very angry, but he could only watch and couldn't interfere.

Yun Tianjia, Long Yuandong, and He Dali all regretted it.
