Lin Tian wielded his longsword and charged through the dozens of beasts. Lightning energy swords slashed out one after another, rumbling loudly. ↑ Blue ↑ Color ↑ Book *,
"Roar!"
A Class 3 beast roared and charged at Lin Tian.
Lin Tian flipped his hand, slashing out with his sword, cutting off this demonic beast's head.
"Most of these beasts are ordinary. It's not worth killing them."
Lin Tian muttered.
After thinking for a while, he looked around and activated the Tianyi Soul Art. He stared at the Class 4 beasts.
"Kill!"
With a swing of his sword, Lin Tian rushed out like lightning and pierced through a Class 4 beast's forehead.
Soon, half an hour passed.
On the platform in front of the Illusory Killing Palace, candidates were sent out one after another. Their faces were pale. Not long after, the nineteen people who entered with Lin Tianyi were all sent out of the Illusory Killing Palace. They were all trembling as they walked away.
"I wonder how long this Lin Tian can last."
"He killed Leng Yitong and Xia Wu. Lin Tian is very strong. He should be able to last for half an hour."
"Not bad. He should be able to rank around one hundred."
Outside the Illusory Killing Palace, many people were discussing.
Lin Tian had just arrived at the Northern Flame Imperial Courtyard, but he had already killed Leng Yitong from the Leng family and Xia Wu in the freshmen ranking battle. His name had spread throughout the Northern Flame Imperial Courtyard. There were not many people who did not know him.
Within the crowd, a youth's expression was ugly. It was Du Hongxing. Originally, he was the number one in this year's Ranking Battle, so he should be the one receiving the most attention. However, Lin Tian's appearance had stolen all of his limelight. Now, everyone only remembered Lin Tian. His title as the number one new student had been completely overshadowed by Lin Tian's brilliance.
"He's obviously someone who doesn't follow the rules, but he's receiving so much attention. I really don't know what he's doing."
Mu Zixiang shook his head.
Beside him, some of the older disciples immediately distanced themselves from Mu Zixiang. They did not want to have anything to do with this person.
…
Inside the Illusory Killing Palace, Lin Tian wielded a long sword and killed one with each strike. Almost all of the beasts were Class 4 Demonic Beasts.
He activated the Azure Thunder Sword Force to its limit and used the Heavenly One Soul Art to quickly sense the level of the demonic beasts around him. As he ran across the wasteland, he searched for Class 4 demonic beasts and waited for an opportunity to strike.
"Pu!"
Another Class 4 Demonic Beast died under his sword.
Soon, fifteen minutes had passed. Lin Tian had killed more than a hundred demonic beasts, and more than ninety percent of them were Grade Four demonic beasts.
Gradually, as time passed, Lin Tian felt that his True Essence could not support him any longer.
"At most, I can hold on for a little while longer."
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Tian's eyes gleamed as he swung his sword to the left.
With a clang, a Thunderous Sword Ray streaked across the sky and beheaded a Class 4 Demonic Beast.
There was already some sweat on Lin Tian's forehead. He raised his hand to wipe it off, but his eyes were still looking around. The long sword in his hand vibrated and flashed with electric arcs. He rushed out again and swung his sword. As he killed a Class 4 Demonic Beast, he also killed a few Class 2 Demonic Beasts nearby.
Gradually, a quarter of an hour had passed.
At this moment, a shocking roar resounded. In the distance, a savage beast that was close to 15 meters tall appeared. Its demonic eyes were red and green, and its body was covered in black scales. It gave off an extremely cold feeling.
"Middle Class 5 Demonic Beast, Nine Scales Jackal."
Lin Tian narrowed his eyes.
Slightly sensing the True Essence in his body, Lin Tian took a deep breath and the long sword in his hand suddenly vibrated violently. He gathered all of his True Essence into the long sword and jumped up. Using the Sword of Lightning, he rushed towards the Nine Scales Jackal.
"Pu!"
With a flash of blood, Lin Tian used up all of his True Essence and pierced through the Nine Scales Jackal's throat.
At the same time, the Nine Scales Jackal's claws landed on his body. Coupled with the fact that his True Essence was completely depleted, his body started to fade and a strange force appeared beside him.
"It's time to end it."
Lin Tian whispered.
In the next moment, a light flashed and he disappeared from the wasteland. He was transported out of the Illusory Killing Palace.
Seeing Lin Tian appear, many people around the Illusory Killing Palace looked over.
"Almost half an hour. Not bad. He should be able to rank in the 100th place."
"This result is truly heaven-defying."
"Not bad. For a freshman, it's really amazing."
The crowd was discussing.
Mu Zi Xiang shook his head. "He only lasted half an hour in the Illusory Killing Palace. What's so amazing about that? Ridiculous. " In the first round, he lasted three hours in the Illusory Killing Palace, which was three times longer than Lin Tian.
"Look, Lin Tian's name is about to appear on the Ranking Monument."
"Yes, 59th. It's about what we expected … Eh?! 59th?! "
Everyone's eyes widened as they stared at the ranking.
"How is this possible?!"
"He didn't even last half an hour. How did he get to 59th?"
"A freshman who just entered the imperial courtyard … surpassed half of the inner courtyard disciples?!"
Everyone was stunned.
Xin Chengyun stared at Lin Tian with admiration in his eyes. "As expected of brother-in-law! He's amazing! "
"Very strong."
In the distance, by the bluestone, Ji Yu blinked, her beautiful eyes shining.
Ji Yu didn't cultivate in the Northern Flame Imperial Courtyard, but she knew many things about the Northern Flame Imperial Courtyard. As far as she knew, there had never been anyone who could rank 59th in the first round of the competition after entering the Northern Flame Imperial Courtyard.
On the other side, Leng Feng's expression was dark.
"Deacon Elder." A voice sounded. Mu Zi Xiang stepped forward and glanced at Lin Tian. He then said to the deacon, "The ranking monument is probably broken. He only lasted half an hour in the Illusory Killing Palace. It's impossible for him to rank 59th. To be fair, please cancel his result and retest."
Many people turned to look at Mu Zi Xiang.
"That poor scholar is at it again."
"But this time, what he said makes sense. After all, he only lasted half an hour."
"That's true. Hmm, let's see what the Lord Deacon has to say."
Many people stared at Mu Zi Xiang.
After glancing at Lin Tian, Mu Zi Xiang spoke again, "Deacon Elder, please order him to retest."
In the distance, Xin Chengyun was furious. "That bastard." Lin Tian had such a heaven-defying result, but Mu Zi Xiang jumped out and said that the ranking monument was broken. He wanted the Deacon Elder to retest Lin Tian. This made him very angry.
In front of the Illusory Killing Palace, the Deacon Elder glanced at Mu Zi Xiang and said, "Don't worry, the ranking monument is normal."
Mu Zi Xiang frowned. "Impossible. If it's normal, he'll only rank 100th at most. There's no hope for him to enter the top 80." As he spoke, Mu Zi Xiang's expression became very solemn. "Deacon Elder, please be fair. Don't let others take advantage of you."
"Shut up!" The middle aged deacon coldly glanced at Mu Zi Xiang and said: "Although he only lasted for less than an hour in the Illusory Killing Palace, in this hour, he practically killed all of the Class 4 Demonic Beasts. After accumulating the total number of Class 4 Demonic Beasts killed, his overall score is naturally high. It is normal for him to be ranked 59th."
The Illusory Killing Palace of the Northern Flame Imperial Courtyard was not ordinary. The Deacon had a special method to observe the situation of the imperial courtyard disciples in the Illusory Killing Palace. Although Lin Tian had not been in the imperial courtyard for long, he was quite famous in the imperial courtyard. The Deacon naturally paid attention to him.
"What? He only killed class 4 demonic beasts? "
Everyone's expression changed when they heard the Deacon's words.
"This …"
Many people looked at Lin Tian and could not help but widen their eyes.
In the Illusory Killing Palace, demonic beasts covered the sky and covered the earth. The disciples who entered the Illusory Killing Palace would kill any demonic beast that came. Among the demonic beasts, there were not many class 4 demonic beasts. Most of them were class 2 and class 3 demonic beasts. Because the situation the examinees faced was basically the same, people usually judged the examinees' results based on how long they lasted in the Hall of Illusionary Death. However, these people did not expect that Lin Tian would specifically look for class 4 demonic beasts to kill while facing the demonic beasts in the Illusory Killing Palace!
One had to know that this was an extremely exhausting task! Ordinary people would not choose this method. There was no benefit to it at all. Furthermore, class 4 demonic beasts were very strong and not easy to kill. However, Lin Tian relied on this method to reach the 59th rank on the Ranking Tablet. This shocked many people to the point that their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
"Freak!"
Someone gasped.
"If he can achieve such a result when he just entered the imperial courtyard, he will have no problem entering the King Courtyard in another year."
"Super freak!"
"At this rate, it is very likely that he will enter the Imperial City Billboard in a year's time."
Many people were shocked.
The Deacon looked at Lin Tian with admiration in his eyes and said, "Lin Tian, you are in the top 80 on the Ranking Tablet. According to the rules of the academy, you can challenge an inner courtyard disciple. If you win, you can replace that person and become an inner courtyard disciple. Of course, if you lose, you will not lose anything."
Lin Tian nodded and looked at the Ranking Tablet.
"You have two hours to choose."
The Deacon said.
As soon as the Deacon finished speaking, Lin Tian turned his head and said, "I have chosen."
"So fast?" The Deacon was surprised, but then he understood and shook his head with a smile. "I was shocked by your results and almost forgot. Of course, I don't need to think too much about this."
If the disciples in the top 80 wanted to challenge an inner court disciple, then they would naturally choose the person at the end of the inner court. There was no need to hesitate or think about it. After all, challenging the person at the end of the inner court was the easiest and easiest.
Quite a number of disciples looked towards the ranking tablet. All of them stared at the eightieth ranked name. "Liu Qing Er, this lady is usually quite diligent in her training. Six months ago, she had barely charged into the Inner Academy. However, this time around, it is likely that she will be in danger."
"In the imperial courtyard, strength is king. This is something that can't be helped."
Someone shook his head.
In the crowd, Liu Qing 'er also came. After all, she was the last one. Although she knew that she could not be on the Ranking Tablet for the time being and did not participate in the competition for two consecutive times, she still came to watch the competition. She was afraid that someone would surpass her in the top 80. At this moment, staring at Lin Tian, her face became very pale. She knew that she would definitely fall out of the inner courtyard. After all, Lin Tian's name had spread throughout the imperial courtyard. Moreover, Lin Tian was ranked 59th on the Ranking Tablet, so his combat strength must be much stronger than hers.
"It's over."
Liu Qing 'er murmured, looking a little sad and pitiful.
At this moment, on the platform in front of the Illusion Killing Palace, Lin Tian's voice sounded, "I choose Mu Zi Xiang."
