"Boom!" The ground caved in.
Everything seemed to have happened in an instant. Many of the candidates did not even have time to react.
Fang Zhengzhi was also shocked. Or rather, he was still in a state of confusion. He did not know if this was real or not.
Just now...
He had experienced elimination and advancement at the same time.
Then, would the collapse in front of him be the same as before? Wait until the collapse was over and try again?
In reality, Fang Zhengzhi's choices after entering the stone hut seemed like random choices, but in reality, they were all made according to the instructions given to him by the previous two trials.
From the first trial, the Broken Bridge.
To the second trial, the Twin Stone Tablets.
Actually, they all revealed that the World of the Sage had its own rules.
Faintly discernible.
One in the light, one in the dark.
If that was the case, then the probability of choosing one out of four would naturally not appear.
One in the light, one in the dark. Faintly discernible.
Fang Zhengzhi did not know if his guess was correct. However, his instincts told him that if he had to choose, he would rather choose the door at the back.
This did not seem to make sense, and there was no evidence to prove that this was the case.
However, since luck was the deciding factor in the stone hut...
Then...
There was no need to talk about any basis or reasoning.
It was all about luck.
...
Within the Imperial Academy, King Duan and Han Zhangfeng's expressions were distorted.
This was not an expression that should appear on the faces of a prince and a Chief Imperial Messenger. However, it still appeared. Even the Ninth Prince's teacup fell to the ground.
This was the first time that the three of them had the same expression. Even the Imperial Messenger who barged in had an exaggerated expression.
The reason was that the scene in front of them had disappeared.
More specifically, the World of the Sage had lost control.
This was extremely rare in the history of the Great Xia Dynasty. It had never happened before.
Because... There was only one possibility for a pocket dimension to lose control. The pocket dimension had its own consciousness. However... Sagely Battle God Meng Tian was long gone.
Then how could his World of the Sage have its own consciousness?
That was impossible.
Unless...
King Duan Lin Xinjue and Han Changfeng looked at each other. They both thought of one possibility. That was the only possibility that could explain the scene before them.
"Before Meng Tian died, he left a trace of consciousness in the Small World?"
Both of them spoke almost at the same time, and then. Both of them were extremely shocked.
If Meng Tian's consciousness was in the World of the Sage, why hadn't anyone discovered it after so many years? And no one touched it?
Could it be that he left that consciousness in …
"That sword?!"
Han Changfeng first thought of something.
That was a legendary existence. No one had ever seen it, and no one had ever found it.
In fact, it wasn't even certain if it existed in this world.
However, everyone knew of the legend that the Sagely Battle God made his name by using a sword. When he killed Demon Lord Si Kong, he also used a sword.
However …
No one had seen that sword ever since it killed Demon Emperor Si Kong.
Meng Tian left behind the World of the Sage. However, he had never mentioned the sword to anyone else. Naturally, everyone guessed that the sword was in the World of the Sage.
King Duan Lin Xinjue's eyes shone with a cold light. He knew very well what it meant for a pocket dimension to be out of control in the Imperial Examinations.
"Ninth Brother, you and I are both in charge of supervising this Imperial Examinations. Now that the World of the Sage is out of control, the consequences are unpredictable. I have to stay behind with Official Han to deal with the unexpected situation. Ninth Brother, please make a trip to the palace in the rain and report this to the Emperor! "
"Okay!" Ninth Prince Lin Yun didn't even think about it before agreeing.
Then, he turned and walked out the door.
King Duan Lin Xinjue waited for Ninth Prince Lin Yun to leave. Then, he looked at Han Changfeng.
"Official Han, do you have a solution?"
"Go and see if the door to the World of the Sage can still be entered. Then, come back and report to me immediately." Han Changfeng said to the messenger behind him.
"Yes!" Upon hearing this, the Imperial Censor immediately ran out.
"The World of the Sage is out of control. What do you think are the chances of Fang Zhengzhi coming out?" King Duan Lin Xinjue smiled.
"I think the chances are slim!" Han Changfeng replied softly. However … There was a tinge of pity in his expression.
As the Chief Imperial Messenger of the Imperial Academy, Han Changfeng had presided over every Imperial Examinations. He naturally did not want to see the elites of the Imperial Examinations trapped in the pocket dimension.
But …
After all, this was Meng Tian's World of the Sage. To break it from the outside, one would need at least three to four times the power of Meng Tian.
Furthermore, even so, there was a high chance that the World of the Sage would collapse.
This was also why Han Changfeng said the chances were slim.
…
In the World of the Sage, Ping Yang grabbed onto Fang Zhengzhi's arm tightly. Her clear eyes were filled with awe, her cherry lips parted as she breathed out.
Fang Zhengzhi was not happy that Ping Yang was grabbing onto him.
However, the scene in front of him caused him to temporarily give up on trying to shake Ping Yang off.
Sword …
Fang Zhengzhi had always wanted to find a sword.
It was not just Fang Zhengzhi. All these years, everyone who entered the World of the Sage had wanted to find a sword. However, no one had ever found a sword.
But now, there were many swords.
Heavy swords, light swords, long swords, short swords …
Countless swords were stabbed into the gravel on the ground, and in the middle, there was a sword that shone with a faint golden light. It was an extremely gorgeous sword, with a golden dragon coiled around its hilt, and a golden bead embedded in the blade.
However, the sword was bound by four chains.
Black chains wrapped around the hilt of the sword and sealed the sword to a huge black rock in all four directions.
"That sword … could it be?!"
"It must be Sagely Battle God Meng Tian's sword!"
"Oh my god, this sword really exists in the World of the Sage?!"
There were about 30 candidates left in the World of the Sage.
Right now, all of the candidates were gathered together. This included Xing Qingsui and Nangong Mu, who had already entered the fourth round.
No one cared about why there was such a sea of swords after the World of the Sage collapsed. Everyone was looking at the sword.
Yan Xiu also saw the sword. However, he did not move. Instead, he turned to look at Fang Zhengzhi.
Fang Zhengzhi's gaze naturally landed on the sword.
