Hearing Lu Xuan's words, all the spectating martial artists couldn't help but nod. It seemed that the Peony Palace had really put in a lot of effort this time. Even the illusory array used for the assessment had been changed. Perhaps they really wanted to completely put an end to favoritism.
At this moment, a group of female martial artists who had registered for the top one hundred ascended the stage one after another. With the appearance of this group of beautiful women, it seemed that the entire Hundred Flowers City had become a bit more beautiful. This was simply not a martial arts assessment, but a beauty contest.
The male martial artists below the stage shouted loudly. Pairs of eyes swept over the women, feasting their eyes. Only on the day of the Peony Palace's selection could so many beauties appear at the same time.
The eyes of Lu Xuan and the Elders of the Peony Palace, who were acting as examiners, swept over the faces of the women. This was to test whether these women's appearance had passed the examination. Tian Xin was very excited, but Lu Xuan was quite calm. Although these women were beautiful, any one of Lu Xuan's beauties was enough to make them pale in comparison.
At this moment, Lu Xuan saw a woman who was somewhat evasive, as if she wanted to hide behind someone else. This attracted Lu Xuan's attention. After a careful look, this woman's appearance was not only not ugly, but could be regarded as one of the best among these one hundred women. Lu Xuan felt a little strange. Since her appearance was enough to pass the examination, why was she hiding?
After a careful look, Lu Xuan couldn't help but laugh. This woman's face was actually wearing a thin face-changing mask. If one didn't look carefully, they wouldn't be able to see it at all. It seemed that the success of the registration was due to this mask.
The so-called face-changing mask was actually a kind of use of the illusory array. The illusory array was embedded in the mask, making others see another face. Lu Xuan attentively looked, and his powerful soul power instantly broke the illusory array in the mask. He immediately saw the woman's true appearance. Although it was not ugly, it was still far from the beauty standard required by the Peony Palace.
Lu Xuan shook his head. Although he didn't want to expose someone's shortcomings in front of everyone, as the chief examiner, this was his responsibility. He immediately said, "Number fifty-seven, you can withdraw yourself."
The girl's body stiffened when she heard that. She glared furiously at Lu Xuan, then turned to look at Lu Xuan for help. She understood that her disguise had definitely been seen through by Lu Xuan. This damnable fellow! She had already talked to the examiners, and as long as Lu Xuan didn't say anything, the other examiners would turn a blind eye to it.
Liu Yun slightly knitted his brows and said, "Mr. Examiner, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with this woman, right? You made him withdraw for no reason. Could it be that you have some unspeakable reason? "
The other women also looked at Lu Xuan suspiciously. Lu Xuan had just vowed that he would not allow anyone to show favoritism. Could it be that he was going to be the first to show favoritism? Now that Lu Xuan had eliminated someone for no reason, who knew if the next one would be another one of them?
Noticing everyone's gazes, Lu Xuan knew that he had fallen into a trust crisis. He sighed in his heart. I've already shown mercy. Since you insist on forcing me to expose you, then I'll go along with your wishes.
Lu Xuan raised his hand and waved it. A gentle wave of origin energy shot out and instantly arrived at the girl's face. It just happened to peel off the disguise, but it didn't hurt her at all.
"Disguise mask?" Someone exclaimed. When they looked at the beautiful girl again, she had instantly turned into an ordinary appearance. She didn't meet the registration requirements at all.
Liu Yun's face stiffened. She was annoyed in her heart. She didn't think that Lu Xuan would be so direct and expose her without a second word. For a moment, she was in a difficult position. She was the one who was in charge of the registration, and now that someone had muddled their way through, it would be her responsibility if they pursued the matter.
She laughed dryly and said, "I didn't think that someone would use a disguise mask to muddle their way through. My eyes must be failing me. Number fifty-seven, you can withdraw."
Although she said it lightly, Liu Yun's heart was bleeding. She had received a lot of benefits from this girl's family. Now that she had been eliminated in the first round, she would have to spit out everything that she had received. Her hatred for Lu Xuan instantly deepened.
Favoritism had already appeared in the first round. While everyone sighed in their hearts, they also admired Lu Xuan even more. They didn't think that Lu Xuan would really do what he said and eliminate a cheating candidate first.
After checking that the rest of the girls didn't cheat, Lu Xuan lightly nodded his head and flew up. Numerous array discs were shot to every corner of the stage. The Six Star Illusion Array was already set up.
"After ten breaths of time, I will activate the illusion array. Everyone, please guard your mind. The examiners and I will judge your performance. Those who don't meet the requirements will be sent out of the stage." Lu Xuan said. The hearts of the girls shivered and they hurriedly adjusted their breathing. They guarded their minds and prepared to resist the illusion array.
After ten breaths of time, Lu Xuan released his Soul Strength and the illusion array was instantly activated. In an instant, a dream-like light enveloped the entire stage. At this moment, all ninety-nine girls on the stage had entered the illusion array.
Seeing this, Tian Xin curiously asked, "Lu Xuan, what is the test of this illusion array?"
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "The illusion array I created has a total of four parts. The first part is the temptation. Those who enter the illusion array will subconsciously want something or something. If they can't resist it, they will be immersed in it and won't be able to enter the second part. Let's see the situation of the temptation array first."
Lu Xuan released his Soul Strength and enveloped the entire stage. He could clearly sense the situation of all the candidates. The other elders of the Peony Palace also did the same.
At this moment, the illusion array had already begun to take effect. All kinds of expressions appeared on the faces of the candidates. Most of them were full of smiles. After all, they saw what they wanted the most. This kind of feeling was like having a sweet dream.
Looking at these girls, Lu Xuan thought of the Wind Sword School's examination in Lin City. However, he was no longer a candidate below the stage. He was the examiner who sat on the stage and controlled the future of these girls.
The effect of the illusion array began to become stronger. The candidates who couldn't resist the temptation were completely immersed in it and made all kinds of gestures. Lu Xuan shook his head. If they couldn't resist the temptation, entering the cultivation world might not be a good thing.
Immediately, Lu Xuan shot out waves of yuan qi and sent the girls who were immersed in the illusion array back to the stage. At this moment, Tian Xin poked Lu Xuan and said with a mischievous tone, "Look at number 45, 62, and 78."
Lu Xuan shifted his gaze. These girls were also immersed in the illusion array. However, at this moment, their faces revealed a hint of seduction. They slightly opened their mouths and panted. Lu Xuan couldn't help but laugh. These girls were really …
In order to prevent them from making a bigger fool of themselves, Lu Xuan quickly sent them back to the stage. After leaving the illusion array, they suddenly sobered up and looked at their surroundings. When they felt that their lower body was wet, their faces immediately turned red. They knew that they had made a fool of themselves. They glared at Lu Xuan with hatred and turned to leave.
Tian Xin quickly memorized the information of these girls. She was thinking that after the examination, she might be able to have a good chat with them. Hehe.
At this moment, Liu Yun said with some dissatisfaction, "Lu Xuan, why didn't you discuss with us before eliminating the contestants? Although you are the main examiner, we are also examiners. We are not just for show."
Lu Xuan asked back, "Then do you think that these people that I eliminated shouldn't be eliminated?"
"You!" Liu Yun raised his eyebrows and gritted his teeth. "No, it's just that …"
Lu Xuan directly interrupted Liu Yun's words. "That's enough. I am the executor. If you find someone that should be eliminated but I didn't, you can tell me. As for these things, you don't have to worry about them. "
Liu Yun was directly rendered speechless by Lu Xuan's rebuttal. He thought to himself, I'm afraid that I won't be able to accomplish many things this time. This Lu Xuan is simply incomparably overbearing and merciless. If Xiang Yi really found a good helper.
About one-fifth of the people were eliminated in the first examination. It seemed that the majority of the girls were still relatively strong. After all, they were able to cultivate to the spirit-refinement realm. They were far from those warriors who had just started on the path of martial arts.
By then, the remaining women had all entered the second stage of the test. Lu Xuan took the initiative to say, "The second stage of the illusory formation is about killing. To be a qualified warrior, one must have the courage to kill, yet not be addicted to it."
Tian Xin nodded in agreement. Then, she looked at the candidates on the arena. At this moment, their expressions were completely different from the first examination. Some of the girls were incomparably terrified, some were solemn, and some had a crazy look on their faces.
Without saying anything, Lu Xuan sent the terrified and crazy girls out of the arena. The former didn't dare to kill, and the latter were bloodthirsty. He didn't expect that as a girl, there were actually people who were bloodthirsty.
In the second examination, another eighteen people were eliminated. Among them, twelve didn't dare to kill, and six were bloodthirsty.
The remaining people had already entered the third examination. As soon as they stepped into the third examination, the expressions of the girls changed again. Almost all of them revealed a look of fear.
Seeing this, Tian Xin was incomparably shocked. She quickly asked, "Lu Xuan, what is the third examination? Why are they so scared?"
Lu Xuan couldn't help but laugh, "I created the evil flood dragon in the illusion array. This examination is a test of courage. Let's see if they dare to make a move against the evil flood dragon in a desperate situation."
Tian Xin gave a thumbs up to Lu Xuan in admiration. She spat out two words, "You are ruthless enough!"
In the past, the evil flood dragon almost killed all of them. Letting these warriors in the spirit-refinement realm face a Demonic Beast Emperor, just thinking about it made them feel … excited!
After about three breaths of time, a girl finally revealed a resolute look. Obviously, she had made a move against the evil flood dragon. Lu Xuan nodded lightly. These people had passed the examination. As long as they made a move against the evil flood dragon, they would automatically step into the last examination. It was also the most difficult examination to pass — the demon of the heart.
