"Hehehe." The first-year students from Canyon Peak Academy were all smiling. Their smiles looked modest and not arrogant at all, but compared to the high-spirited and arrogant expressions of Zhenfeng College's Bo Yong when he reached the eleventh floor, the Canyon Peak Academy's pretense of modesty became the greatest mockery.
The students of Zhenfeng College all felt ashamed. Bo Yong was dumbfounded and couldn't speak for a long time.
In Zhenfeng College, the students all called him a genius, and the teachers often used him as a role model, which slowly made him accept this setting. Although there were teachers who reminded him that there was always someone better than him, he always felt that the teachers were afraid of him becoming arrogant.
He wouldn't become arrogant, but he wouldn't belittle himself either.
He was a genius, but he had to be a genius who worked hard.
That is what Byron believed, and what he did. But now, it seemed that sensing the five types of soul power was nothing at all? Some of the first-year students even broke through to the first Heavenly Layer.
"Continue to work hard. You are still a first-year student, so your cultivation level isn't important." The teacher of Zhenfeng College specially came over to talk to Bo Yong.
"Oh …" Bo Yong replied, but his heart was already wavering. Was he really not outstanding enough, or was it that … the Canyon Peak Academy's training method was more outstanding?
The Canyon Peak Academy's first Heavenly Layer of soul power had given Zhenfeng College a good show of strength. Everyone became listless, no longer cheering each other on, and no longer dared to provoke the other side of the gorge. Even the way they looked at each other had become fearful.
"Do your best!"
"Keep your spirits up!"
On the other hand, the students of Canyon Peak Academy seemed to have a caring spirit as they cheered for Zhenfeng College. But with their mischievous smiles and their purposely dragged out endings, it was obvious that they were hitting Zhenfeng College while they were down.
The students of Zhenfeng College were even more depressed, but what could they do? The first Heavenly Layer! Who could contend against it? Even Bo Yong was completely defeated.
"Hahahaha."
Ba Li Yan, who was on the invigilator's platform, would probably be dancing with laughter if not for his demeanor and steadiness.
This year's first years were really satisfying!
He could only think about this in his heart. If he said it out loud, it would seem like he had no magnanimity.
"The kids from Zhenfeng College are a little dispirited," Barley said.
That's right, after suffering such a blow, the students of Zhenfeng College completely lost their spirit. They lined up, listened to their names being called, and very mechanically walked into the Tower of Soul one by one to take the exam, as if they were all looking forward to the end of the exam.
After that, none of the students who took the exam had any outstanding performance. Most of them only reached the seventh or eighth level. There were even two students who didn't manage to reach the seventh level. This was definitely an abnormal performance. This caused the two of them to become even more dejected.
It was finally going to be over …
The students of Zhenfeng College heaved a sigh of relief as they watched the queue shorten. At the end of the line, Lu Ping's name was called and he entered the preparation area.
The students of Zhenfeng College lowered their heads even more.
How unfortunate! They had already been humiliated by the Canyon Peak Academy, and in the end, there was still this guy who came to lower their standards. This guy with no soul power at all, he wouldn't even be able to enter the tower!
Many students were already covering their faces. It wasn't just them, even many of the teachers of Zhenfeng College on the invigilator's platform revealed an awkward expression.
Because of insufficient soul power, or because of an abnormal performance, there were still situations where one couldn't reach the seventh level. But if one couldn't even enter the tower's door and couldn't even get eight points on the first level, then it would be an utter disgrace. What kind of standard was required to produce a student with no soul power at all? The teachers didn't care about Lu Ping's face, but the faces of Zhenfeng College and the teachers of Zhenfeng College.
"It seems like everyone is looking forward to this student?" Ba Li Yan noticed the predicament that the entire Zhai Feng Academy was in, and spoke sarcastically to Guo Youdao with interest. The ones who were looking forward to Lu Ping's performance should be the Canyon Peak Academy.
Guo Youdao smiled and didn't say anything. At this moment, the two invigilators also tried to sense Lu Ping and revealed a strange expression. After exchanging glances, they strengthened their senses and tried again.
"What's wrong?" The invigilator walked over.
"He … doesn't have soul power." This wasn't something the two invigilators should be responsible for. They just noticed it when they sensed it earlier and carefully sensed it again out of curiosity. In the end, they really didn't have it.
"What?" The invigilator also sensed it. Indeed, there was nothing.
Right, don't let him take the exam!
The students of Zhenfeng College were all looking forward to it. If they could get rid of Lu Ping here, it would be much better than this guy who couldn't even open the tower's door, right?
But …
"You want to take the exam too?" The invigilator gave the choice to Lu Ping.
Don't! Everyone screamed in their hearts, but Lu Ping's answer was, "Yes, or I'll be expelled."
A deathbed struggle!
That was what everyone in Zhenfeng College was thinking. When they thought about how they would lose face because of this trash, they felt sullen.
"Alright, you're next." The invigilator didn't stop Lu Ping.
"Let me confirm again. As long as I rush to the top of the tower, I can pass, right?" Lu Ping suddenly said.
The invigilator glanced at him and nodded. "Yes."
Was this guy trying to play some tricks?
Many people who had heard Lu Ping's last words had the same feeling. But the invigilator didn't care about whether Lu Ping's words had any traps. Trying to use some tricks to force the exam rules? Did he really think the invigilators were brainless blockheads?
Dong!
A bell rang from the Tower of Soul. The Zhaifeng candidate who had just entered stopped at the seventh level. He didn't continue upwards, but he still passed and was sent out by the Tower of Soul.
"Pass!" The invigilator announced on the spot, and then called out the last name of Zhenfeng College. "Lu Ping."
"Here," Lu Ping answered.
The invigilator didn't say anything, only indicating that he could begin.
The entire Zhai Feng Academy was filled with sighs and sighs. There were only two people …
Morin pushed Siffin and quietly returned to the first-year exam hall to watch Lu Ping take the exam. Morin had a look of anticipation on his face, while Siffin was in a dilemma. He didn't want to see Zhenfeng College being so depressed, but he also didn't want to see Lu Ping, who everyone thought was trash, shatter his eyeball. Because he had experienced it before. That feeling wasn't wonderful at all.
What should he do?
Siffin couldn't think of anything. Lu Ping had already walked to the door of the tower, raised his right hand, and pressed in that handprint.
There was no reaction from the tower door.
See, I knew it!!
Everyone in Zhenfeng College wanted to cry, but no tears came out. As for the Canyon Peak Academy, the first-year students had limited cultivation, so they didn't know that Lu Ping didn't have soul force. They were stunned for a moment before realizing why there was no reaction from the tower. They had never heard of such a situation before. They had no idea at all!
How … how could there be such a lousy student? He couldn't even open the tower door?
"Hahahahaha!" This time, the Canyon Peak Academy couldn't be bothered to pretend to be humble anymore. Many people clutched their stomachs, laughing so hard that tears came out.
The laughter was like a sharp sword, stabbing into the hearts of everyone in Zhenfeng College.
The invigilator had already expected this and was about to step forward to signal Lu Ping to end the exam. He didn't even enter the tower, which saved him the effort of teleporting.
Who would have thought that at this moment, there would be a loud bang.
The door opened.
No, to be more accurate, the door flew away!
By the time everyone reacted, the door that Lu Ping's right hand was pressing on had already disappeared.
Then, they saw him walk into the Tower of Soul, but the door behind him didn't close. His back remained in everyone's line of sight.
Following that, in their minds.
Because his back had already disappeared.
He went up to the second floor?
Everyone looked up. Sure enough, a halo quickly lit up, but … wasn't it a little too high? This didn't seem to be the second floor. This was … the seventh floor?
One step … to the seventh floor?
What was going on?
Everyone was dumbfounded. The first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth floors didn't light up at all. With this step, Lu Ping directly went up to the seventh floor!
"What's going on?" The Canyon Peak Academy's Dean, Bao Liyan, cried out involuntarily. He stood up from his seat and puffed out his stomach. His vigorous soul force was released involuntarily, directly sending the table in front of him flying.
Crash!
The table was smashed into pieces. The halo of the tenth floor of the Tower of Soul also lit up.
One step, seven floors. Second step, ten floors!
Many first-year students couldn't reach this height even if they tried their best. However, Lu Ping only used two steps in the blink of an eye.
Then, the third step.
The twelfth floor!
The eleventh floor was also skipped. This was the best result You Boyong had ever achieved in Zhenfeng College. But now, Lu Ping didn't even have the qualifications to stop him.
"This …" Bao Liyan finally didn't remain stunned. His gaze instantly turned sharp as he glanced at the Canyon Peak Academy's mentor beside him.
This mentor immediately understood.
They had some special arrangements for the twelfth floor, but they originally didn't think of using it on the first-years. For the first-years, this arrangement was too much. If they didn't handle it well, it might cause trouble.
But the Dean had already signaled, and this guy didn't look like an ordinary first-year student.
Activate it!
The mentor was preparing to use his ability.
Boom!
A loud sound!
The twelfth floor was broken! A figure was already standing at the top of the tower. Those who had reached the Soul Realm could clearly see that it was Lu Ping, the calm Ping.
Boom boom boom boom boom!
Before anyone could react, a series of rumbling sounds came from the Tower of Souls. Dust flew in all directions from every level as the tower tilted and sank.
"Run!!" The main examiner shouted.
The proctors and students gathered under the Tower of Soul hurriedly scattered in all directions.
The Tower of Soul collapsed, turning into ruins in an instant. The thick dust rose into the sky and a figure gradually walked out, becoming more and more distinct.
Lu Ping.
"This tower doesn't pass." Lu Ping said.
