Xiao Hua was overjoyed. He knew that his memories would disappear after leaving the Heaven and Earth Pagoda, so he had to figure out the "Invisibility" escape technique within the limited time.
As for the Battle of the Five Cities, Xiao Hua really did not care about it at all. Facing those students who had been imprisoned, Xiao Hua was definitely a huge monster that he could kill with a wave of his hand.
Xiao Hua was confident, but Mu Yun and the others in the White Jade Capital were not. After they landed around the White Jade Capital, they immediately gathered at the Hall of Excellence.
Of course, the White Jade Capital in the Heaven and Earth Pagoda did not have a Hall of Excellence. There was only a huge military tent, and there were military cases and seals in the tent.
"Is this going to be a team battle?"
When Mu Yun arrived, there were already many students around the military tent. He could clearly see that there were even more students inside the tent. Mu Yun did not enter the tent immediately. Instead, he stood outside and frowned in thought. "Why would such a despicable team battle be introduced in the Heaven and Earth Pagoda's Sage Selection?"
The Heavenly Court's Confucian Immortals and Dao Immortals had one thing in common. They valued individual combat strength. Under normal circumstances, a high-level immortal could easily destroy a team. Therefore, a team's status was very low.
Mu Yun had never taken a team seriously. However, at this moment, most of his combat strength was imprisoned. He did not even have the ability to protect himself. Instead, a team battle was being tested. This puzzled him.
"Mu Yun?"
While Mu Yun was thinking, a familiar voice came from afar. He turned around and saw a middle-aged man in light-colored Confucian robes.
This middle-aged man was called Yu Zhaoyuan. He was a disciple of the White Jade Tower and was an old acquaintance of Mu Yun.
"Yu Zhaoyuan!"
Mu Yun raised his hand happily and said, "I heard that you are also participating in the Sage Selection, but I have never seen you before. I did not expect that we would be working together today."
"Haha, that's right!"
Yu Zhaoyuan flew over and laughed. "No one would have thought that the Sage Selection would test our ability to work together. As a leader, we have to be able to lead a team. Now that you and I are both from the White Jade Capital, we can work together!"
"Aiyo, that's right ~"
Hearing Yu Zhaoyuan's words, Mu Yun was suddenly enlightened. He thought to himself, Regardless of whether it is the Bo Selection, the Mao Selection, or the Ying Selection of the Six Heavenly Awakening Selections, they all test one's ability. We, the Scholarly Immortal Human Clan, are all students of immortal sects or academies. Of course, in the future, we will face organizations, leaders, and even the ability to mobilize troops and kill. The Ying Selection is the best place to test these!
"When it comes to attacking and killing, there are bound to be casualties. Although these casualties are all illusions, they will still create a barrier. Therefore, the Heaven and Earth Tower erased these memories. No one knows what they have done, and no one will hold a grudge …"
"Hold a grudge? That's not right … "
Thinking of this, Mu Yun suddenly shuddered. As if he had thought of something, his face suddenly turned pale.
"What happened?"
Yu Zhaoyuan asked anxiously when he saw Mu Yun's uneasiness.
"It's fine, it's fine."
Mu Yun waved his hand and said, "I'm thinking of Tang Hao from Hundred Songs Tower!"
"Hmph ~"
Yu Zhaoyuan snorted coldly. He looked around and said in a low voice, "I've looked around and didn't see Tang Hao's shadow. If I'm not wrong, he probably didn't pass the Peach Blossom Spring illusion. Otherwise, I will definitely teach him a lesson!"
"No, no ~"
Mu Yun shook his head and said, "Now that we are in the same boat, we can't kill each other in the first round. We must work together. After we pass this round …"
"That's right ~"
Yu Zhaoyuan's eyes lit up. He patted Mu Yun's shoulder and said, "You are so thoughtful. In the second round, we must not be in the same city as him. Let's work together and kill him!"
Mu Yun felt a chill in his heart. This was what he was thinking just now. Even if they were both in the White Jade Capital, or even in the same academy and immortal sect, who wouldn't have conflicts with each other?
At this point, the conflicts would be magnified. Yu Zhaoyuan might work together with Tang Hao in the first round, and they might kill each other in the second round. Then … what about the third and fourth round?
Mu Yun didn't dare to imagine. It was said that human nature couldn't be tested. The 24 Ying Selection tests seemed to be testing human nature!
"Human nature?"
Mu Yun looked at Yu Zhaoyuan, who was looking around, and sneered. He believed that even if they worked together, Yu Zhaoyuan would still attack Tang Hao in the first round!
Because once they left the Heaven and Earth Pagoda, no one would remember what happened here. What did Yu Zhaoyuan have to worry about?
"Everyone, everyone ~"
Just then, a familiar voice came from the tent. "None of us can pick up the imperial seal. This means that if we want to pick up the imperial seal, we need the consent of the majority of the students in the White Jade Capital. Therefore, let's not have any other ideas. Let's quickly gather according to the academies and immortal sects and elect the leaders so that we can discuss this together …"
"Tang Hao!"
Mu Yun looked at Yu Zhaoyuan. Both of them were interested. So, Tang Hao had already entered the tent.
"The Hundred Chant Tower is stationed in the White Jade Capital ~"
Tang Hao said as he flew out of the tent and said, "Disciples of the Hundred Chant Tower, follow me back. We will discuss this first and then come back to the tent!"
"Yes ~"
All the disciples of the Hundred Chant Tower agreed.
"Also ~"
Tang Hao stood in the air and shouted again, "All the branches of the Hundred Chant Tower, follow me back. If the students of the other small sects want to follow the Hundred Chant Tower, I welcome them!"
As he spoke, Tang Hao glanced at Yu Zhaoyuan and Mu Yun. Joy appeared on his face. He quickly flew down and bowed. "Oh, it's Brother Yu and Brother Mu Yun. Congratulations on your return to the White Jade Capital."
"Haha, Brother Tang ~"
Yu Zhaoyuan also smiled and greeted him. He was even friendlier than when he met Mu Yun. He said, "It's really my fortune to meet you here. After this, I will have to rely on Brother Tang to lead the disciples of the White Jade Capital to resist the other four cities!"
"You're welcome ~"
Tang Hao's face was full of pride, but he still waved his hand and said, "Since it's a battle between the five cities, we still have to rely on the strength of everyone. We still have to work together!"
The two exchanged some pleasantries and agreed to meet in the tent. Then, they immediately separated and went on with their own business.
"You're a hypocrite ~"
Yu Zhaoyuan cursed and said to Mu Yun, "Brother Mu Yun, I will also go and gather the disciples of the White Jade Tower. You should also hurry back to the White City Academy and take command of the academy first."
"Yes, yes, I understand ~"
Mu Yun replied and hurriedly rushed to the White City Academy.
However, after flying for a while, Mu Yun felt a chill in his heart again.
"My strength is second to none among the disciples of the White City Academy who participated in the Sage Selection ~"
Mu Yun thought to himself, "But now most of my strength has been sealed. The other disciples are about the same as me. If they don't accept me, what should I do? There are even a few disciples who clearly have some grudges against me. At this time … "
The more Mu Yun thought about it, the more he felt the horror of the 24 tests of the Sage Selection!
The 24 tests of the Sage Selection was not a test of applying what one had learned. It was a test of being a person!
