The Seven Star Trials had already begun. But compared to the blossoming training field in the outer ring, the inner ring was increasingly deserted.
Compared to the outer ring, the inner ring had fewer Big Dipper Sect disciples, but they were also stronger. In the ring closest to the center of the Seven Star Tower, the Divine Weapon inheritors occupied an extremely high proportion. Most of them had already opened their doors to accept disciples. In the North Style Academy, they were considered teachers and not students.
But the Seven Star Trials required all Big Dipper Sect disciples who were still in the academy to participate. Some of the disciples who had already left the mountain would even rush back to participate on this day. The seven academicians standing on the rooftop of the Seven Star Tower each carried three Seven Star Badges. If someone from the sect challenged them, they would not be able to refuse.
But the seven academicians who attended this year, excluding Guo Wu Shu who was absent as usual, suddenly had one less. There were only five of them guarding the rooftop of the Seven Star Tower.
But regardless of whether there were five or seven, it could not be said that there had never been someone who would challenge the seven academicians, but it was extremely rare. Because of this, the second ring, which was second only to the seven academicians, had very few challenges between them.
This was already the highest level of the Seven Star Rankings, excluding the seven academicians. Those who were ranked here had already sufficiently proven their strength. There was no need for them to challenge each other. Unless there was a rift between the two of them and they wanted to use this opportunity to humiliate the other party.
It seemed that this year, the first-rate students were getting along very well. Currently, there were no challenges. And for the invited spectators, what they wanted to see the most was a battle between the first-rate experts of the inner ring. It would be even more satisfying to see the seven academicians challenge each other.
But for those who were familiar with the Seven Star Trials, they knew that this was unlikely. These experts who already stood at the peak would not use this kind of method to prove their existence.
Therefore, although the innermost ring was deserted, it did not affect the mood of the distinguished guests at the rooftop of the Seven Star Tower. Although the strongest round was not fought, in the third and fourth rounds, the training field was already in full bloom. The guests on the rooftop were not stingy with their praises for the members of the Big Dipper Sect at the first moment. Those at Xia Bojian's level were even more alarmed.
He was only invited to the rooftop of the Seven Star Tower because of his status as the dean of the academy. Together with the seven academicians and other distinguished guests, they watched the Seven Star Examinations. But with his Three Spirits Linked Together strength, Xia Bojian estimated that he would at most be able to obtain a position in the fifth round of the Seven Star Trial.
The strength of the North Style Academy is really too terrifying. This made Xia Bojian inevitably think of the neighboring district. Zhenfeng College, which had been eradicated by the College Board.
Overtake the Big Four? How much of a frog at the bottom of the well was he? That Lu Ping should have experienced it by now, right?
At the thought of Lu Ping, Xia Bojian's gaze involuntarily shifted to the side. A white-robed young man with a sword hanging from his waist was quietly watching the battle from a distance. He was able to become an honored guest of the North Style Academy at this age. There were not many people who could reach the top of the Seven Star Tower. This person was the head of the Black Army Empire's Supervisory Board. He was the representative sent by the Black Army Empire to attend the Seven Star Examinations. On the entire rooftop, the only person who could be mentioned in the same breath as Qin Qi in terms of age was the one who represented the Green Peak Empire.
Because the North Style Academy was located within the borders of the Green Peak Empire, the Green Peak Empire gave the North Style Academy considerable respect. The person sent to watch the Seven Stars Trial was none other than the crown prince of the Green Peak Empire, Yan Ming.
As the heir to the throne of a country that occupied close to half of the continent, Yan Ming's status was second to none in the Seven Star Tower. The one who came from the Chang Feng Empire was an elder. He was the head of the Zhu Family of the Chang Feng Empire. However, in terms of prestige, he was still incomparable to Yan Ming.
The representatives of the three empires had only greeted each other when they first met. After arriving at the top of the building, they seemed to have come to a tacit understanding and stood in a triangle, as if the three empires had a tripartite balance of power on this continent. The academies and forces in their respective territories subconsciously gathered around them. On the other hand, the representatives from the other three academies were not divided by country. The representatives from the three academies were gathered together. They chatted happily. Other than that, there were also representatives of forces like Precious Treasure Reading who wandered between many parties. They would not alienate themselves from any party, but they would not get too close either.
As the saying goes, one small clue reveals the general trend. Fallen leaves indicate autumn. From the small rooftop of the Seven Star Tower, one could already see the distribution of the various forces on the continent.
Xia Bojian was a complete nobody on this rooftop. He was cautious and did not dare to speak too much. Like the two deans from the Xuan Army Empire, he stood near Qin Qi.
Among the representatives of the three empires, Yan Ming was the most respected. In terms of experience, The head of the Zhu Family of the Chang Feng Empire had the most experience. But in terms of compatibility, it was Qin Qi. The head of the Academy Commission was in charge of all the academies in the country. Although the four big academies were superior, they were still academies. It was most appropriate for the head of the Academy Commission to attend the academy's activities.
But now that Qin Qi was here, what would she say to Lu Ping?
Xia Bojian was very curious about this, but he did not dare to ask. He had only seen Qin Qi this morning. He had not heard of anyone from the Xuan Army Empire. However, he had heard that Qin Qi's elder brother, Qin Yue, had also come to the North Style Academy. However, he was a disciple of the Southern Sky Academy. At the rooftop of the Seven Star Tower, the Eastern Woods Gate Master of the Southern Sky Academy, Cheng Luozhu, was there. However, Qin Yue was the same as Xia Bojian's group of students. He could come to join in the fun, but he was not qualified to ascend to the rooftop of the Seven Star Tower. He could only watch the Seven Star Exam from another place arranged by the North Style Academy.
While they were focusing their attention on the high level duels in the inner circle, the North Style Academy, which was missing two academicians, had their attention focused on the furthest position in the outer circle.
"How could this be? Why did he start from there?"
Not to mention the people of the seven circles, even the academicians were puzzled. Lu Ping, who was able to become a divine weapon inheritor, was actually at the bottom of the Seven Star List.
"On the Star Fate Chart, he is at that position." Chen Jiu, who was in charge of the Megrez Peak and responsible for the Star Fate Chart, said, "It should be an accident when he was drawing the stars into his life. At that time, he actually lost all of his soul power."
"Oh." The one who was puzzled was the Celestial Pearl Academician Wang Xin. Among the seven academicians, only he and Merak Peak Song Yuan had not had any direct contact with Lu Ping.
"Lu Chenfeng still did not agree." Dean Xu Mai suddenly opened his mouth and said with a sigh.
"As expected." Although everyone sighed at this answer, they were not surprised.
"Announce it, this time's Seven Star Exam will also select Yao Guang Academy's academician." Xu Mai said. Before getting a definite answer from Lu Chenfeng, they did not announce this news.
But very quickly, the news spread.
The eyes of the first-rate experts in the innermost circle of the Seven Star Tower, who only came to participate in the Seven Star Exam as a formality, immediately became fiery. They all raised their heads and looked up.
The Seven Star Tower was not tall, but the rooftop had always been too high for them to reach.
But this time, they had a chance.
There were vacancies among the academicians.
And it seemed that the academicians did not have a suitable candidate.
Hence, the Seven Star Tournament.
This opportunity came too suddenly.
The first-rate disciples in the inner circle looked up at the rooftop of the Seven Star Tower, then looked at each other.
These people undoubtedly had the highest chance of success.
How should they start?
They did not act immediately. Instead, they all began to plan.
The Seven Star Tournament was not something that could be achieved easily. Especially when no one thought that they had the strength to crush the others in this circle.
This was a rare opportunity.
The difficulty of this opportunity was also very high.
But in everyone's heart, there was a goal.
Whether they could succeed or not was one thing, but this goal could germinate in everyone's heart.
Standing on that rooftop.
Countless people looked up at the rooftop of the Seven Star Tower.
Yan Ge, who was in the third circle, was also looking up.
But he did not look at the five academicians, nor did he look at the empty seats beside them.
He was looking at the young man whose appearance somewhat resembled his own. On the rooftop of the Seven Star Tower, the position that received the most sunlight in the Seven Star Valley, the young man's smile was as bright as the sun.
That was his brother, his biological brother.
Yan Ming also saw him and immediately waved at him, his smile became even brighter.
Yan Ge smiled and bowed respectfully.
