A quarter of an hour
The opening of Tong Tian Tower had caused a sensation in Ying Tian Academy. Most of the students were lagging behind in their cultivation. Their biggest interest was to discuss those monstrous geniuses.
Gu Xuan was one of the most dazzling geniuses. This time, Gu Xuan's challenge to Tong Tian Tower caused a sensation that was only lower than the year when Zhou Juechu was crowned as King.
"I wonder if Gu Xuan can complete the first level in two hours? Since Gu Xuan is determined to take the test, he should have some confidence, right? "
"Not necessarily. There are many people who are full of confidence and want to challenge Tong Tian Tower, but how many of them can pass the first level? The first level tests the understanding of martial arts. Those who can understand martial arts are all world-shaking geniuses."
"That's true. I heard that Senior Brother Zhou Juechu couldn't pass the first level. This is too terrifying. Could it be that Senior Brother Zhou Juechu isn't ranked in Ying Tian Sect?"
"That's not the case. Although Senior Brother Zhou Juechu can't be the top existence in Ying Tian Sect, he can't be too weak. Senior Brother Zhou's strength lies in other fortuitous encounters. His understanding of martial arts isn't that strong, so it's impossible for him to pass the first level. However, according to his talent, he should be on the third level."
"The third level is actually so terrifying?"
…
Hearing the chaotic discussions around her, Su Tianxin's mouth revealed a trace of a sneer. "Gu Xuan, oh Gu Xuan, this time you really want to lose face. Martial arts understanding isn't something you can talk about. Even if you know what others will say in advance, everyone's situation is different. If you can pass based on this, then no one will pass."
Su Tianxin was filled with 'pity' for Gu Xuan. This matter had caused such a huge sensation. If Gu Xuan failed, then he would lose face.
Rumble!
At this moment, a tremor suddenly came from the Heaven Connecting Tower. Following which, the first level of the tower suddenly shone brightly.
"So fast?" Old Lin frowned. The first level required continuous verification of one's understanding of martial arts. When the guardian's understanding was more or less complete, the result would be determined.
However, this required quite a bit of time. Among all the people who succeeded, the shortest required an hour, and the longest took an entire day!
As for Gu Xuan, he had only entered for a quarter of an hour. That also seemed to mean that Gu Xuan's martial comprehension was too weak, and he was directly judged to have failed.
"Ridiculous." The mocking expression on Su Tianxin's face became even more pronounced. Even though she had failed, she had persisted for four hours. Even so, she was still very far from passing.
For Gu Xuan to fail in such a short time, just how bad was he?
Boom!
There was another explosion and the flickering light suddenly stabilized. However, this light wasn't like before, where it only lit up half of the floor. Instead, it lit up the entire floor!
Did he pass the first test?
The originally noisy crowd suddenly quieted down. Hundreds of gazes landed on the first floor at almost the same time.
If it wasn't for the dazzling light, many people would have doubted the authenticity of this matter.
"Monster! A peerless monster!"
Old Lin looked at the Sky Piercing Tower, his eyes filled with surprise.
Gu Xuan's performance was simply too shocking. In less than fifteen minutes, with such little effort, Gu Xuan had actually succeeded?
Not only had Old Lin never seen or heard of such a thing before!
To be able to pass the first level of the test, one was considered a genius in martial comprehension. Their future achievements would be extraordinary. However, Gu Xuan had left those geniuses far behind.
"What a monster. No wonder the Patriarch would arrange this assessment for him. Another genius has appeared in the academy!" Elder Lin laughed loudly. His laughter was unbridled and crazy.
He was the founder of the Yingtian Academy in the Great Wilderness Dynasty a hundred years ago. However, his talent was average. After a hundred years, he had only cultivated to one-star King Realm. Moreover, his potential had been completely exhausted and he couldn't advance any further.
Therefore, Old Lin had put all his energy into the Yingtian Academy. The development and prosperity of the academy was his everything!
Now, the academy had produced a genius who could pass the Sky Piercing Tower. Moreover, he was personally supervising him. How could he not be ecstatic?
"Impossible! This is impossible! There must be a problem with the Sky Piercing Tower!"
Su Tianxin looked at the light of the first level and her face turned ugly. How could Gu Xuan pass the first level in a quarter of an hour? Wasn't it supposed to take at least an hour?
No matter what, Su Tianxin didn't want to believe the truth in front of her eyes. However, the Sky Piercing Tower was personally created by the Sect Leader, Mo Jingyun. For a hundred years, there hadn't been any problems. It was just her wishful thinking.
"I have looked down on Gu Xuan for so long. It turns out that I have overestimated myself." Su Tianxin laughed at herself.
She had always thought that she was better than Gu Xuan. However, Gu Xuan's actions were like a slap to her face.
To pass the test of the Yingtian Academy in a quarter of an hour, what kind of talent was that? Compared to Gu Xuan, it was like the difference between heaven and earth. What was even more ridiculous was that she had always thought that Gu Xuan was arrogant and didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
Now, it seemed like she was the one who was arrogant and didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
After a moment of silence, the crowd also exploded with a loud bang!
After such a long exchange, they had already understood what it meant to pass the first level of the test. They also knew how long it would take to pass the first level of the test.
However, when they had just started to understand the common knowledge of the Sky Piercing Tower, Gu Xuan had used his actions to break the so-called common knowledge.
"Monster!"
"He's too monstrous. To be able to pass the first level, he would have a place in the Yingtian Sect."
"Previously, there were people who said that Gu Xuan's potential was ordinary. What a joke. It seems like it's not that Senior Brother Gu Xuan's potential is low. It's just that the academy wants to train Senior Brother Gu Xuan on purpose."
"Of course. Otherwise, do you think that the academy would be willing to spend five million Spirit Crystals to give him such an opportunity?"
At this moment, those who had mocked Gu Xuan for overestimating himself had completely changed their attitude. They began to praise him. If they didn't cover up their embarrassment, their words of looking down on Gu Xuan would be exposed. They would probably become a laughing stock.
Among the crowd, the Azure Dragon Envoy's face was ashen. There was even a trace of fear.
Zhou Juechu had sent him to inquire about Gu Xuan's situation. He had just arrived and had to return to report. He could imagine how furious and violent Zhou Juechu would be when this matter reached his ears.
