C24 (2/2)
He had just arrived at the plaza, and the faces of all the Family Head s darkened. The assessment to enter Martial Sect was simply too abnormal, in just a day's time, not even one out of several thousand people had passed the first two stages?
It had to be known that the people participating in the examination were all geniuses raised by the various Profound Martial Family s after exhausting their resources. They were extremely outstanding in their families, so how did they become trash when they reach the Martial Sect?
”Calm down, as long as your aptitude is good, your Martial Sect will definitely not be covered in dust.” The Martial Sect's elder, Duan Yun, had also arrived and said this to the Family Head s of the various great Profound Martial Family s. Although he was apologetic, it was still not satisfactory.
”In the past, at this time, there should have been a lot of people passing through the first two stages, but now, no one has come. Could it be that something has happened?”
Miao Lingshaonv, who was beside Elder Duan Yun, suddenly thought about the osseous spider and her expression became a little ugly.
”Even if today's examinees are weaker than the previous years, there should still be people who have passed the second stage. Wait a bit longer, those who can pass should all be on their way here.” Elder Duan Yun said in a low voice.
An hour passed, but no one appeared.
An anxious expression appeared on the face of the Elder sitting at the side. If this were to continue, the number of people who could pass the examination today would be even fewer than last year.
When the four hours had passed, the Martial Sect Elders seemed to have caught fire as they stood up completely.
Elder Duan Yun was also a little tongue-tied, and said: ”This … This... This assessment shouldn't be too hard, so why haven't we seen anyone else? ”
The other elders were all frowning, someone said: ”No one, this won't do, otherwise our Martial Sect will have no new disciples.”
Amongst the Family Head s, someone shouted loudly, ”Elder, there is still no one here. The set threshold for Martial Sect entrance examination is too high, and not a single person in the thousands can pass it.
Elder Duan Yun's face turned green, not knowing what to say.
It had been such a long time, yet no one had even passed the first two stages. What the heck was there to play about!
The other elders were all restless, continuously stroking their beards, their faces had turned green, and they were unable to calm down. Young Master Tian, the new disciple who had just entered Martial Sect, could it be that there weren't even any new disciples this year?
”Xue Yao, didn't someone head for the second stage earlier? Go take a look, and see if there is any delay. ” Elder Duan Yun said to Miao Lingshaonv in a low voice.
”Yeah, logically speaking, he should have been here a long time ago. I'll go take a look.” Xue Yao nodded, then turned and left the plaza.
”Let's go too. Under normal circumstances, more than half of us have already passed the first two stages.”
”Yes sir!” The few elders behind nodded their heads, and then flew towards the swamp as fast as they could.
An hour later, in the marshland, a few elders were flustered and exasperated. Their silver strands fluttered wildly and they almost vomited a mouthful of blood.
Hearing such tragic and indignant screams coming from far away in the marshland, the Family Head s on the plaza all had strange expressions on their faces, and they all guessed that they had received some sort of provocation.
Even Elder Duan Yun who was sitting cross legged at the top of the plaza could not help but open his eyes at this moment, his face full of suspicion.
After a while, someone finally came back to report.
At that moment, the cross-legged elder at the top of the square was instantly petrified. His expression was as if he had stepped on a pile of dog shit.
”Someone destroyed the formation and dug out all of the precious jade used to set up the formation in the marshland.”
The s and clan elder s sitting below were all dumbstruck. They sucked in a breath of cold air on the spot, then their mouths began twitching, and they almost burst into laughter.
”F * ck!” Finally, one of the elders couldn't hold himself back and stood up with a bang. Staring at the disciple that came to report, he gnashed his teeth and growled, ”Investigate, investigate ferociously. As long as you find out who it is, I'll tear him into pieces!”
”The ones that destroyed the array formation should be among the examinees in the swamp. If I bring them all here, I should be able to find the culprit very soon.”
”That's right, a formation that can destroy our Martial Sect. This person can pass the third trial without any problems. At that time, as long as we pay attention to the new disciples, we can easily find out who did this good.”
The few Elders quickly determined the direction of the criminal and set the area for the suspect.
In the end, all the elders had dark expressions on their faces as they sent someone to throw the wooden board back into the swamp to help the trapped examinees escape.
In the middle of the grass, Ling Yu slept soundly, and only woke up in the evening. He rubbed his eyes, crawled out from the grass, and stretched out the blue medicine towards the sun, feeling relaxed.
”Bro, I was lucky this time. I didn't expect to be able to come out alive.” Just at this moment, the youth not too far away spoke.
”No matter how I look at him, he seems to have just woken up. Look at him, he still has a face full of satisfaction from sleeping.” Another young girl muttered, feeling disgraced in her heart.
