"The third and final round of the test. I'll remember it in one second.
Wonderful, no pop-up window free reading! The final round of the test will be held in the Sword Trial Pavilion. "
Under Lei Ying's lead, Duan Lingtian and the others entered one of the floating islands in the Heavenly Pool Palace's estate and arrived at a palace.
At this moment, there were quite a few people standing around the palace, sizing them up with curiosity in their eyes.
It was obvious these people were disciples of the Heavenly Pool Palace. Otherwise, they would not be here.
"The Sword Trial Pavilion!"
With just a glance, Duan Lingtian saw the words' Sword Trial Pavilion 'written on the plaque above the entrance of the palace. The words were neatly written as though they were printed.
The Sword Trial Pavilion was spacious. Perhaps, it was because the Heavenly Pool Palace's new disciple assessment was held today, but the Sword Trial Pavilion was deserted.
"Lord Palace Master."
Ten middle-aged men and old men were waiting for Lei Ying at the entrance of the Sword Trial Pavilion. When they saw Lei Ying and the others, they quickly stepped forward to welcome them.
"Yes."
Lei Ying nodded indifferently. Then, she said to the ten middle-aged men, "Bring them in."
Although Duan Lingtian and the others did not know why Lei Ying did not follow them, they still followed the ten middle-aged men into the Sword Trial Pavilion.
After Duan Lingtian and the others entered the Sword Trial Pavilion, a tall young man flew over from afar and arrived next to Lei Ying in just a blink of an eye.
"Lei Ying, I heard there are two talented disciples this time?"
The young man was wearing a blue robe. His appearance was ordinary, but he had a strange temperament, giving people a comfortable feeling.
"Xu Lang, you're quite well-informed."
Lei Ying looked at the young man meaningfully. "However, the Sword Trial Pavilion wants them … Don't think too much about it."
Xu Lang was one of the nine titled Celestial Emperors in the Heavenly Pool Palace. His title was Qing Yuan, and his strength was on par with Lei Ying.
He had received news that there were two talented disciples among the new disciples who were not even 300 years old, but their strength was comparable to a titled Celestial Lord.
"Lei Ying, you are too greedy."
Xu Lang shook his head. "Two people. No matter what, you have to give one to me … Don't forget, a thousand years ago, I also gave one to you."
"Humph!"
Lei Ying snorted coldly, "It would have been better if you didn't mention this … Now that you mention it, I get angry. That brat you gave me only knew how to cause trouble for me. In the end, he even provoked Lord Heavenly Emperor. If I hadn't killed him ruthlessly, Lord Heavenly Emperor would have definitely vented his anger on me. "
A thousand years ago, it was not Lei Ying who presided over the new disciple assessment, but one of her Vice Hall Masters.
That time, there was also a good seedling, but not as good as the two seedlings this time.
However, since Lei Ying was not the one in charge of the Heavenly Pool Palace, the Heavenly Pool Palace's disciples were divided up by Xu Lang and the others.
Since Xu Lang was a titled Celestial Emperor, he had snatched two talented young men from Lei Ying. When Lei Ying finally showed up, he gave one of them to Lei Ying.
The person whom Xu Lang had given to Lei Ying was arrogant and unruly. He had even offended the Heavenly Emperor of the Boundless Heaven when he came to the Heavenly Pool Palace.
At that time, Lei Ying had personally killed the Heavenly Emperor of the Boundless Heaven to save herself from being implicated.
"Lei Ying, that was an accident … When I gave him to you, I didn't know he would cause so much trouble …" Xu Lang said awkwardly.
Then, he continued to say awkwardly, "Ask yourself, did I give one of my disciples to you without hesitation?"
"This time …" Lei Ying interrupted him.
Just as Xu Lang was about to continue speaking, Lei Ying interrupted him. "You'll come with me to watch the assessment. As for whether they're willing to become your disciple, that's not something I can control."
"Don't worry."
Xu Lang smiled confidently. "As long as you're willing to let him go, I have my ways."
Lei Ying did not enter the Sword Trial Pavilion with Duan Lingtian and the others because she had received Xu Lang's message and was waiting for him.
After agreeing to Xu Lang's request, Lei Ying brought Xu Lang to the Sword Trial Pavilion.
As soon as they entered the Sword Trial Pavilion, they found themselves in a spacious square. At first glance, they could not see anything other than the flat ground.
When they turned around, they could no longer see the entrance of the Sword Trial Pavilion.
Currently, apart from Duan Lingtian and the other 500 participants, there were also the middle-aged men and old men who had brought them into the Sword Trial Pavilion.
'Is this a Little World?'
Duan Lingtian's heart skipped a beat when he saw two figures standing in the air.
One of them was Lei Ying.
The other person was a young man. Duan Lingtian had not seen him before entering the Sword Trial Pavilion so he did not know who he was.
Although Duan Lingtian did not know who the young man was, it was not difficult for him to guess that the young man's status in the Heavenly Pool Palace was on par with Lei Ying when he saw the young man standing next to Lei Ying.
At this moment, a voice rang in Duan Ling Tian's ears. "I think there are only two people in the Heavenly Pool Palace who have a higher status than Lei Ying and who look like young men."
Based on his appearance, he seems to be the Verdant Prairie Celestial Emperor, Xu Lang. "
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man. Duan Lingtian had a vague impression of him. He was in the group between 900 and 1,000 years old.
During the second round of the examination, this middle-aged man had come out after the third young man, Jun Haoxuan.
During the second round of the examination, Jun Haoxuan's results were second only to Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er.
"Xu Lang? The Verdant Prairie Celestial Emperor? Why is he here? "
"There must be a reason why he's here. Otherwise, why would a titled Celestial Emperor like him come here just to watch the show?"
"He must have found out about the two young men."
…
Many people whispered among themselves as they looked at Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er in unison. Most of them thought Xu Lang's appearance had something to do with Duan Lingtian and Huan' er.
'Another titled Celestial Emperor?'
Duan Lingtian's eyes glinted as he thought to himself, 'There are only nine titled Celestial Emperors in the Heavenly Pool Palace, and yet, two of them are here?'
"Huan 'er!"
Duan Lingtian sent a Voice Transmission to Huan 'er. "If Xu Lang is here for us, let's see if Lei Ying wants to accept you as her disciple after the examination ends. If she does, you can join her.
As for me, I'll choose Xu Lang. "
Duan Lingtian said.
"Brother Ling Tian, I don't want to be separated from you," Huan 'er said through Voice Transmission.
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"Silly girl, Brother Ling Tian doesn't want to be separated from you … I'm only doing this so I can use the resources I have to investigate your parents' whereabouts."
Duan Lingtian said.
Huan 'er's eyes lit up when she heard Duan Lingtian's words. However, she did not say anything else.
"The third examination …"
At this moment, Lei Ying, the Merciless Celestial Emperor, began to explain the rules of the third examination.
In the third examination, the participants would be divided into ten groups.
Each group would only have ten people remaining in the end.
In other words, some groups that had more than a hundred people would only have ten people remaining in the end.
Some groups that only had thirty to forty people would only have ten people remaining in the end.
"A battle royale?"
After a while, Duan Lingtian and the others learned from Lei Ying that the third examination would be a battle royale. Each group would fight among themselves until only ten people would remain in the end.
"The ten groups will be divided into groups. Those who are eliminated will be resurrected and have a chance to join the Heavenly Pool Palace," Lei Ying said.
Duan Lingtian nodded.
The ten groups would fight one by one.
The first group to fight was the group of people who were younger than 100 years old. They were the group with the most people remaining in the end. There were about 116 people in the group.
116 people would fight to their heart's content until the remaining ten people would join the Heavenly Pool Palace and become its disciples.
"The competition in this group is really intense."
The rest of the people were watching from the side. Seeing that over a hundred people were walking around the vast stone platform, but no one made the first move, they couldn't help but whisper among themselves. "116 people, only 10 people are left … That is to say, 106 people will be eliminated."
As soon as Lei Ying finished speaking, more than 100 people who were younger than 100 years old made their moves in unison.
A battle royale began.
It was a battle royale.
As soon as the battle began, some people were killed by other people. After the other people killed their opponents, they began to look for their next target.
Naturally, there were also some people who knew they were no match for the other people so they retreated.
About half an hour later, there were only 32 people left who hadn't been eliminated.
At this moment, the 32 people were scattered all over the place, glaring at each other.
"Huan 'er, who do you think will make it to the next round?"
Duan Lingtian asked as he looked at the 32 people on the stone platform.
"I think it's him."
Huan 'er looked at one of the 32 people. This person was the one who had the most outstanding performance so far.
Although he was outstanding, he was not as outstanding as Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er.
He was only slightly stronger than the others.
"I don't think so."
Upon hearing Huan 'er's words, Duan Lingtian shook his head. He had also paid attention to the person Huan' er mentioned. Indeed, he was the strongest among the 32 people on the stone platform. However, it was a pity he was too outstanding.
As it turned out, Duan Lingtian was right.
It didn't take long for more than twenty of the thirty-one people to join forces against the person Huan 'er had just mentioned, killing him in the blink of an eye.
"This …"
Huan 'er was stunned.
"Huan 'er, unless you're strong enough, you should learn to conceal your strength and bide your time. If you know how to conceal your strength and bide your time, you'll definitely be able to stay in the palace and go far! "
Duan Lingtian said patiently.
After the stronger person was killed, the remaining 31 people began to fight. In just a blink of an eye, a portion of them were defeated.
After a quarter of an hour, only ten people were left standing.
"Take them away and complete the procedures to enter the palace."
After deciding on the last ten people, Lei Ying looked at a middle-aged man behind her and said faintly.
"Yes, Lord Temple Master."
