Within the Nanming Academy, there was a huge building. Over ten thousand ten-year-old children were gathered here.
Today was the most important day of the Azure Wood Examination. The students who had successfully passed the first round had all rushed over to participate in the second round of the examination.
Strictly speaking, the second round of the examination wasn't really an examination. It was more like a reward and a ranking competition within the academy.
The location of the examination wasn't within Nanming City. Instead, it was on a huge island far away in the sea. One could only reach it by using a transportation formation.
Within the huge building, on a high platform in the center, the chief examiner used a loud voice to announce the method of this round of examination and the basis of the ranking.
This island was located in the depths of the sea. It was extremely large, spanning over a hundred kilometers.
On the island, there was a huge ancient pagoda. Within the pagoda, there was an incomparably large space. Within the pagoda, there were large amounts of spiritual flowers, spiritual herbs, and spiritual fruits.
The examinees participating in this round of examination had to enter the pagoda and pick large amounts of medicinal herbs. The final ranking was based on the amount of medicinal herbs they picked and the value of the medicinal herbs.
Within the ancient pagoda, there were a total of nine floors. Different medicinal herbs were planted on each floor. The higher the floor, the higher the grade of the medicinal herbs. Naturally, the higher their value.
Among them, the medicinal herbs on the first floor were basically all grade one medicinal herbs. The highest floor was the ninth floor, and the medicinal herbs there were all grade nine medicinal herbs.
The points were calculated according to the grade of the medicinal herbs. Grade one medicinal herbs were worth one point, grade two medicinal herbs were worth ten points, grade three medicinal herbs were worth a hundred points, grade four medicinal herbs were worth a thousand points. If one could pick a grade nine medicinal herb, one stalk would be worth a hundred million points.
Of course, as a ten-year-old child, it was impossible for him to reach the ninth level. After all … there were spirits of plants in the Primordial Pagoda. Once he was defeated, he would be instantly teleported out of the pagoda and lose the chance to explore the next level.
Listening to the chief examiner's endless speech, Yan Guilai's eyes couldn't help but light up. As of now, he had officially become a Martial Emperor. Although he was only a Martial Emperor of the First Heaven, his realm was extremely stable.
Yan Guilai was greatly impressed by this unique Manifestation of the Void Celestial Body. It was as if there was no limit to this Manifestation of the Void Celestial Body.
If it had been an ordinary person, even if they had entered the realm of Martial Emperor, they would not have been able to stabilize their realm and establish a firm foothold without a few years of hard work.
However, the Manifestation Void Celestial Body was different. No matter which realm it entered, its foundation would be extremely solid. It was as if this body originally possessed such a foundation and foundation, and now it was just recovering its strength.
Finally, the Chief Examiner finished his explanation. Following the Chief Examiner's command, as the top seed of the assessment, Yan Gui was the first to step into the teleportation formation and head towards the deserted island.
White light flashed, and in the next moment … Yan Guilai appeared on a huge island. Looking around, in the center of the island, there was an ancient tower that towered into the clouds.
Although it couldn't be compared to the Tower of Babel, it was still incomparably huge, with a diameter of over a thousand meters. From afar, it looked like a mountain.
After looking around for a while, Yan Guilai took a step forward and rushed towards the huge ancient pagoda.
As he ran closer, he saw that there was no door at the entrance of the huge pagoda. Instead, there was a swirling mass of dark green fog that formed a whirlpool-shaped passageway.
After taking a deep breath, Yan Guilai took a big step forward and jumped into the dark green passageway.
Behind Yan Gui Lai, the other examinees also rushed over. They followed behind Yan Gui Lai and entered the dark green vortex one after another.
With a flash of dark green light, Yan Guilai appeared in a lush forest.
It was different from the primitive forests in the Qian Kun World. The trees here were very short, with the tallest being only five or six meters.
Moreover, the trees here were very dense. It could be said that the trees were green and shady, and the distance that they could see was very close.
Looking around, Yan Guilai tried to determine the direction. However, he realized that there was no target in this world that could be used as a reference. Hence, he couldn't determine the correct direction.
If this was a normal world, there would be a sun and stars that could help humans determine the direction.
However, there was no sun in this huge pagoda. The light in the sky was very warm, but the sun couldn't be seen.
Feeling the warm light in the sky, it was obvious that it wasn't sunlight. However, Yan Guilai couldn't figure out what was emitting this light.
According to the information provided by Aoki University, the stairs of this huge ancient pagoda were located in the middle of every floor. From the outside, it looked like a huge ancient tree.
Yan Guilai didn't care about the medicinal herbs on the first floor. After all … there were only first-grade medicinal herbs on the first floor. Even if he spent time and effort to collect a lot of them, he wouldn't be able to exchange them for many points.
Hence, Yan Guilai's goal was very clear. He wanted to find the entrance to the second floor and go straight to the second floor to look for higher quality medicinal herbs.
Of course, although he didn't purposely look for them, Yan Guilai still casually collected all the medicinal herbs within ten meters of him. After all, it was just along the way.
As he walked, Yan Guilai gradually determined the direction and confirmed his position.
Although there was no sun or moon in the space of the ancient pagoda, there weren't even any stars.
However, it was obvious that the space of the ancient pagoda mimicked the natural environment of the outside world. There was day and night.
After all, medicinal herbs were also plants. They also needed to have day and night. Hence … there was logic to determine and capture and analyze.
However, this wasn't the most important thing. What really allowed Yan Guilai to determine the direction and position was the mysterious connection between himself and the python.
With the python as the location, Yan Guilai only needed to test the waters for a while to determine the four directions. Combined with the surrounding environment, it was easy to determine his position.
As he ran at full speed, Yan Guilai occasionally encountered danger. On the first floor of the pagoda, there was a strange type of plant.
These plants usually wrapped around the tree trunks and looked no different from green vines.
However, once someone approached them, these green vines would shoot out like poisonous snakes. If one didn't dodge in time, they would be entangled.
However, even though the speed at which these green vines shot out was extremely swift, it was still too slow for Yan Gui Lai who'd already attained the 1st level of the Martial Emperor Realm. He casually executed the Myriad Tribulation Finger and was capable of shooting the green vines into a green mist that dispersed with the wind.
Actually, it wasn't just Yan Guilai. The first floor of the ancient pagoda was very safe for all the candidates participating in the assessment. The green vines here were only at the Body Tempering Realm. How could they be a match for candidates who were at the Spirit Gathering Realm?
Along the way, Yan Guilai was attacked by dozens of green vines. However, not a single green vine could get within ten meters of Yan Guilai.
As Swallow Returns moved forward at full speed, he headed straight for the center of the ancient pagoda.
Using the wood-based energy in his body, Yan Guilai could sense all the medicinal herbs within a hundred meters of him.
However, Yan Guilai didn't want to waste time here. He only collected the medicinal herbs within ten meters of him. As for the other medicinal herbs, he would leave them for the other candidates.
