The huge, ancient bronze mirror floated in the sky. The space around it was obviously twisted as if it were about to crash. It seemed the space couldn’t support the existence of such a formidable divine artifact.

Everyone was watching the Mirror of Judgement with eyes full of awe and amazement. For many onlookers, it was the first time they saw such a powerful divine artifact.

“Are the following semi-finals related to this Mirror of Judgement?”

“According to Chief Tian Sheng’s words, it is supposed to be this way…”

“That sounds interesting.”

“…”

Many people were whispering. Some of them were quite puzzled. This Academy Competition seemed to be different from the previous ones. There was no draw ceremony to pair up the teams. Some other way must have been adopted. However, this uncertainty made people more curious.

In the previous competitions, the Five Great Academies had never summoned the Mirror of Judgement. Therefore, it was a feast for the eyes for everyone this time.

Of course, not only the onlookers were puzzled. Even the four teams on the combat stages also cast their surprised glances towards the Mirror of Judgement. It seemed the contestants also didn’t know how the following matches would be chosen.

In front of countless eyes, Chief Tian Sheng stood with his hands behind his back. Then he said with a smile, “Next, the four teams will enter the Mirror of Judgement. All of you share one goal – to walk out of the Mirror of Judgement!

“If all members of a team fail to walk out, that team will lose their qualification and be deemed a loser.”

Mu Chen and the other contestants narrowed their eyes a bit. It seemed the trial inside the Mirror of Judgement could even eliminate the whole team. Under the control of the five Chiefs, their lives wouldn’t be endangered. However, once they failed, they would lose the qualification to strive for the championship.

“Do you understand?” Chief Tian Sheng asked slowly, looking at the four teams.

All members of the four teams nodded.

“Well…” Chief Tian Sheng nodded slightly and turned to the other four Chiefs. “Let’s open the Mirror of Judgement!”

The rest of the four Chiefs stood up at the same time. After gripping their palms, four ancient bronze seals casting light appeared in their hands. Finally, five light beams burst out and shot onto the dull surface of the Mirror of Judgement.

Hum! Hum!

It seemed as if a strange hum was echoing between heaven and earth. The vast bronze mirror started to rotate. Along with the rotation of the Mirror of Judgement, the space around it was crushed bit by bit. Many scary cracks emerged, pitch black and bottomless.

While the Mirror of Judgement was rotating, its dusty surface gradually became clear and bright. Dim light was radiating from the mirror’s surface as if it could penetrate the barrier of space.

On the combat stages, all members of the four teams were staring at the mirror’s surface, which was becoming increasingly brighter.

Taking a deep breath, Mu Chen shouted in a low voice and waved his hand. “Let’s go!”

Whoosh!

The instant his voice broke off, he dashed out and turned into a light beam streaking across the sky. The next moment, he dashed into the Mirror of Judgement and immediately disappeared. Behind him, Luo Li and the other three teammates followed him closely.

At the same time, the other three teams also dashed into the Mirror of Judgement without any hesitation.

When all the teams had disappeared, the Mirror of Judgement became even brighter. At last, a large image emerged in which the figures of the four teams were displayed.

Everyone widened their eyes to watch the trial of the Mirror of Judgement.

…

When Mu Chen and his teammates dashed into the Mirror of Judgement, dazzling light was radiating in front of their eyes. However, the radiance only lasted for a short while before the light dissipated.

Once the light dissipated, Mu Chen and his teammates were reflexively on alert. With spiritual energy covering their tense bodies, all of them were scanning the peripheral region with their vigilant eyes.

The next moment, all of them couldn’t help changing their expressions.

It seemed they were standing in the depths of an extremely vast, chaotic sea. The sea was indeed boundless as far as the eye could see and gave them an unfathomable feeling.

In addition, this chaotic sea was emitting a formidable sense of pressure. The feeling could freeze the blood of Mu Chen and his teammates.
