"The key is whether or not he can bring back his results. What's the use of a piece of trash like him who hides until the end of the test?" Gao Guan clearly had a different opinion.
Teng Fei disagreed. "It's not important to him whether or not he can bring back his results. His ability was proven at the start of the test. I actually hope he doesn't bring back his results. Heaven Avenue doesn't want him, but I want him!"
Gao Guan added, "Have you forgotten about how he smashed the Sky Shaking Drum at the start of the test?"
Teng Fei abruptly turned around. "You won't pursue this matter after the test, will you? You saw the situation then. He couldn't afford to be weak. He had no choice! "
Gao Guan said, "What's the point of me not pursuing this matter?"
Miao Yi's group didn't notice the two of them. They quickly flew past the planet they were standing on and headed in the direction of the Dragon Medallion. The test supervisors would guide them.
The group of seven landed on one of the six planets that sealed off the exit of the Purgatory.
It was another huge basin with a towering palace high above. The basin itself was a drill ground.
The seven of them weren't the first to arrive. At least a hundred thousand people had already arrived. There wasn't even a place to hide from the sun and rain. Over a hundred thousand people were sitting cross-legged on the drill ground under the scorching sun, either scattered or in groups.
The reason so many people came back alive was largely because the Heaven Court had cleared the area around the exit in advance and strictly forbade fighting and looting within the cleared area. The area was too wide, and it was difficult to catch a target and loot them. For example, Xiahou Long Cheng couldn't find his target no matter how long he waited. Finally, he found one, and it was a freaking lucky guy. Others couldn't find him, but he did. He couldn't even escape in time.
The seven of them descended from the sky, attracting the attention of the crowd. Miao Yi's mount was too eye-catching. When they saw Miao Yi return, whispers broke out.
In the crowd, Zhang Hanfang and the others, as well as the nine Heaven Avenue Great Commanders of Dong Hua Headquarters, were shocked. They looked at each other.
Liu Guiping lowered his voice and muttered to the others, "That bastard actually came back alive."
Sang Ruyue said, "Why should we be afraid of him? He left the Purgatory and returned to his own territory. What can he do to us?"
The others nodded. Yao Xing said, "I wonder how this fellow's results are. If he can't keep his position as Senior Commander, it's not like we won't have a chance to deal with him again."
Yan Su frowned. "Why is he with Xiahou Longcheng? Maybe he's borrowing Xiahou Longcheng's light. I'm afraid his results won't be bad."
For the past hundred years, they had been hiding and did not dare to run around. They should have returned empty-handed, but they could not resist the activities of the forces behind them. When the assessment was about to end, the people behind them stepped up their activities and helped them contact other candidates in their own territories. It could be said that they were using threats and promises.
Those who did not have a powerful background and had risked their lives to get some results were filled with grief and indignation. However, there was nothing they could do. Before they saw for themselves whether the Heavenly Street System was truly separated from the local powers, there were not many who had the guts to not cooperate.
Also, they weren't sure if their results could make it into the top eight thousand. If they couldn't, they wouldn't be able to become the Great Commander of Sky Street and had to return to their local forces. If they agreed to the conditions, no matter what their final results were, they would be given a good position. It would be hard for anyone to refuse after thinking about it.
This was what it meant to have a plan from above and a countermeasure from below!
Of course, there were also those who did not know what was good for them. If they didn't cooperate, what could they do? First of all, it was because they did not know what was good for them that they could not climb up in the Heavenly Court. Second, they were more confident in their results and did not have to worry about being suppressed and ostracized when they returned to their local forces.
As for Xiahou Longcheng, he was a rather unlucky one. As a member of the Xiahou family, he had to go and wait for others to rob him. But there was no other way! It was precisely because he was a member of the Xiahou family and the Heavenly Empress was in charge of the assessment this time that it was inconvenient for the Xiahou family to play dirty tricks in the dark. They had to set an example and could only sacrifice Xiahou Longcheng's interests to protect the overall situation. Therefore, Xiahou Longcheng was indeed unlucky and was repeatedly abandoned by the family.
Seeing Miao Yi return, Kou Wenqing, as one of the supervising Advisors, immediately stepped forward and greeted him.
"Advisor Kou!" As soon as they met, Miao Yi immediately put away his mount. He did not even have time to take off his armor and first cupped his hands in greeting.
On the other hand, Xiahou Longcheng did not take Kou Wenqing seriously and chuckled.
Seeing that Miao Yi was happy, Kou Wenqing's face was filled with joy. She personally reached out to hold Miao Yi's arm and looked him up and down. She nodded and said, "It's good that you're back. How have you been for the past hundred years?"
Miao Yi smiled bitterly. "I escaped from death and was lucky enough to keep my life."
"Being able to survive is better than anything else." Kou Wenqing glanced at Xiahou Longcheng. She was a little confused as to how this pair got together. They seemed to have a good relationship. She turned back and asked, "Did you report your results?"
"Just a little. I'm just afraid it won't be presentable." Miao Yi said modestly.
"Good! Take off your armor and follow me. "Kou Wenqing extended her hand and invited him.
Miao Yi and the others immediately took off their armor and put it away. They followed her into the temporary public pavilion. There were more than ten people inside to receive the assessment results.
Starting from this end of the pavilion, Kou Wenqing taught Miao Yi what to do. First, Miao Yi had to write down his position and name in the Celestial Court on the results he brought back. Then, he stamped his transcendence seal to confirm that the results belonged to him.
After that, Kou Wenqing quickly checked that there were no mistakes. Then, she stamped her transcendence seal again and recorded it on the jade disk she carried with her, indicating who she had recommended and handed in the results. After that, Miao Yi's results were handed over to the dozen or so members of the Celestial Court's Supervisory Right Department. These people checked the results one by one and stamped their transcendence seals. The dozen or so people took turns to read it and record it on their records, indicating whose assessment results they had received and the general situation of the items they had brought back.
Finally, the results were handed over to a supervisor for collection. The supervisor's acknowledgment was then passed back to Miao Yi. The jade disk with the names and transcendence seals of the dozen or so people finally returned to Miao Yi's hands. Miao Yi accepted it after confirming that there were no mistakes.
During this time, there were law enforcers patrolling the side and keeping an eye on the dozen or so receiving personnel. Before the assessment was completely over and the assessment results were completely collected, these people were not allowed to contact the outside world. Otherwise, they would be killed!
This precaution was to prevent people from using their connections to cheat after the assessment.
After they were done here, Kou Wenqing led Miao Yi and the others away. She walked to the cliff and waved her hand towards the basin below. "Everyone who has returned from the assessment has to wait here. You guys can find a place to rest."
Miao Yi asked, "When will the results be out?"
Kou Wenqing replied, "Within a year."
"A year?" Miao Yi was surprised. Looking at the unobstructed state of the basin, he actually had to stay in the open for a year? For a cultivator, this was nothing, but it was a little too long. He couldn't help but ask, "Why do we have to wait so long?"
Kou Wenqing smiled bitterly. "After your assessment results are collected, a group of people will immediately be organized to review it and classify the results of the overlapping areas. Then, an expert will be organized to lead a team to verify the information you have reported. Only after confirming that there are no mistakes in your results and the degree of difficulty will it be easier to rank the results. This is also to prevent people from falsifying and casually handing in items. There will definitely be such people. The on-site verification is also to be responsible for all the participants and to give everyone as much justice as possible. "
She then switched to voice transmission and said, "I won't hide it from you. This time, Emissary Gao has changed the assessment process at the last minute! After some of the arrogant fellows who relied on their family background submitted their results, when they heard that they were not going to wait for the results after they returned, but on the spot and that they could no longer use their connections to cheat, some of them panicked and made a big fuss to demand their results back. Emissary Gao has already ordered the execution of more than ten nobles' children. Even the relatives of Marshal Teng Fei's family were executed. He did not give Marshal Teng any face at all. The others were so scared that they did not dare to move. Just wait and see! There will definitely be more heads rolling on the ground. Who knows how many of the hundreds of thousands of people are panicking right now. An array has already been set up here to cut off Star Bell's connection with the outside world. It will be difficult to find someone to help them. Emissary Gao is so ruthless this time. He is purposely kicking a group of nobles' children out of the Heaven's Street system to make room for them! "
Miao Yi did not expect Kou Wenqing to not find it troublesome. Gong? Rendezvous in the cabin? Rendezvous in the kitchen? Pagoda Zhu? Yuanjie Nunnery Dusk Zhu? Stealthily Dusk Zhu? M? The Emperor of Silk Reeling Zhu Zhu? Stealthily Dusk Zhu? Di Shan Zhu? Carbonized Moat Curtain Rake? Acting Mu Zhu Zhu? Flattering Qiao Shacha Zhu Zhu?
He immediately cupped his fists and thanked her for the reminder, indicating that his results were clean and that he did not falsify anything.
Kou Wenqing was finally relieved. She extended her hand and said, "I still have official business to attend to. I won't be accompanying you."
Miao Yi cupped his fists and thanked her again. Then, he led Xiahou Longcheng and the others, who were curling their lips at Kou Wenqing, and flew into the basin to find a place to sit.
The drill ground was empty. Everyone had no choice but to find a place to sit. Miao Yi swept his gaze around and met Zhang Hanfang's and the others'. He remembered how they had humiliated him in public. It was indeed time for him to pay them back. He immediately transmitted his voice to Xiahou Longcheng.
Xiahou Longcheng turned around and immediately opened up a path in front of them like a lackey. He forced the crowd to make way for him with a domineering aura! He rushed in front of Zhang Hanfang and the others and shouted, "Get lost! Your Grandpa Xiahou is taking this place! "
Zhang Hanfang and the others had an ugly expression on their faces. They looked at Miao Yi. They didn't have to guess to know that Miao Yi was deliberately making trouble for them.
"What are you waiting for?" Xiahou Longcheng had a bad temper. He immediately kicked Ding Zequan, who was a little slower to get up, and was sent flying by the kick.
The nine people quickly stepped aside. They were angry but didn't dare to speak. They could bully Miao Yi in terms of family background, but compared to Xiahou Longcheng, it was still not enough. Although this bear was a good-for-nothing, he belonged to the ranks of the top nobles. Not many people could compare to him in terms of background.
Whoosh whoosh. The commotion immediately attracted a purple-armored general and several people to descend from the sky. He shouted, "What's going on?"
Xiahou Longcheng's eyes immediately widened. He glared fiercely at the nine people from the Dong Hua Headquarters, looking as if he was going to kill them!
