Chapter 294
Li Yi's time for condensing energy was short, and the energy on his body wasn't sufficient. Being able to condense a sword light was already not bad. However, this situation was only temporary. As time passed, his path of practicing energy went further and further, and the energy within his body would become increasingly vigorous, until finally, all his blood and energy turned into energy.
But now, just relying on this strand of energy was enough to help him break the limit.
At this moment, Li Yi held the sword light. Under the enhancement of the guidance technique, it was brilliant and gorgeous. He didn't retreat but advanced instead, actually killing toward Shen Chong at this moment. He knew that Shen Chong was a Soul Realm expert, and also a genius who joined the Golden Academy very early. Facing such an opponent, he didn't need to reserve, nor did he need to hold back, just needing to erupt with all his might.
Accompanied by the sword light tearing through the sky, Li Yi's tall body erupted with vigorous blood and energy. Wherever he passed, the air was vibrating and humming, like a violent extraordinary creature roaring, trying to erupt all its life potential, wanting to break through the great enemy in front of him, and forcefully carve out a path to survive.
The brilliant cold light was as fast as thunder. This distance of nearly twenty meters seemed to have been carved with a hideous opening, and in the blink of an eye, this crack had already torn to Shen Chong's front.
"Not bad speed, what a momentum of going forward without retreat." Shen Chong's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he commented excitedly: "Among so many students participating in the assessment, your ability to fight head-on can be considered among the best."
However, what made Li Yi feel incredible was.
This sword light stabbed over, actually stopping at a distance of a few centimeters from Shen Chong, as if an invisible restraint had entangled his sword light layer upon layer, unable to advance even a fraction.
Li Yi wanted to use force again, but his sword light began to have a tendency to collapse and disintegrate.
"What's going on?" His eyes narrowed slightly, unable to understand the scene in front of him.
One had to know that there was no protective energy in front of Shen Chong. Even if there were, Li Yi felt that relying on his Hundred-Refined Energy, he could tear open an opening. But at this moment, he couldn't feel any power around him at all.
"But your path is still very long. If you want to continue growing, go to the Golden Academy; that place is more suitable for you. Now, I announce that your assessment is passed." Shen Chong laughed loudly at this moment, and suddenly, he stretched out his fingers and pointed directly toward that brilliant sword light.
Both fingers hadn't touched the sword light yet, but Li Yi's Hundred-Refined Energy shattered and collapsed inch by inch in an instant, and then all the way, it was unstoppable. The two fingers hit Li Yi's shoulder just like that.
Instantly.
A terrifying power that was unimaginable surged out.
Li Yi's whole person was like being hit by a violent storm, immediately flying backward. His figure couldn't stabilize, turning over in mid-air. Finally, after being hit out dozens of meters away, he adjusted his figure, stumbled, and landed on the ground. But then, a mouthful of blood and energy could no longer be held, and fresh blood sprayed out with a puff.
"Li Yi..." Lin Yue's expression changed greatly, and she rushed over hurriedly.
"Lin Jie, I'm fine." Li Yi waved his hand to signal, then wiped the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth and slowly stood firm.
"Examiner, that power just now was not something the Spirit Perception Realm could possess."
Shen Chong withdrew his fingers and smiled: "This is the power of the soul, indeed not something the Spirit Perception Realm can possess. I count as having violated the rules, but this doesn't affect the final result. And I feel that your fist energy and sword light still have a lot of room for improvement. I am very much looking forward to what kind of strength you will erupt after you step into the Soul Realm and the shackles of your body are opened."
"And the martial arts level you learned is not low, worth studying diligently. But I hope even more that you use martial arts as a cornerstone to climb to new heights, because in the Golden Academy, there are martial arts methods of a higher level than yours."
"Thank you for the guidance." Li Yi said calmly.
Shen Chong said: "You're welcome, just saying a few words casually, it doesn't count as guidance. Your assessment has ended. Now go to the side and have a good rest."
After finishing, his gaze shifted, and he immediately looked at Jiang Mingtian not far away.
"Now, the next person participating in the assessment, please be prepared. Also, a reminder: you cannot use extraordinary weapons during the assessment process. This thing, logically speaking, is not something you should possess in the Spirit Perception Realm. If you use it during the assessment, it will only make us examiners increase the intensity of the assessment, which is not very favorable for you."
Subsequently, Shen Chong smiled slightly.
But this smile looked like a devil's smile in Jiang Mingtian's eyes...
Obviously.
If the students participating in the assessment used weapons and the like to improve their strength, then the examiners would also release restrictions. This is called "as the path rises one foot, the devil rises ten."
"Damn, there's this rule?" Jiang Mingtian had no choice but to throw down the precious sword made of extraordinary metal in his hand, then took a deep breath and strode to meet him.
No matter what, he just needed to withstand three strikes.
He didn't practice martial arts and couldn't do it to Li Yi's extent, so it was better to... defend.
Li Yi calmed his blood and energy at this moment, then found a position to sit down and rest. Withstanding the examiner's three strikes wasn't easy at all. With his physical fitness, he felt like he was about to fall apart. Fortunately, there were only three strikes, otherwise, he really couldn't have withstood it.
"Li Yi, have a good rest. After this assessment is passed, there shouldn't be any other assessments." Lin Yue walked over and said: "But this time it was a bit unexpected. Didn't expect the special recruitment assessment to become strict. One must know that before, it only required the cultivation value to meet the standard."
"Just like what that examiner said, the cultivation system is mature now, and the application of various techniques has also been spread. The cultivation environment for evolvers is much better than before, so the assessment has become strict. But it doesn't matter, as long as everyone is treated equally, then there's nothing to complain about."
Li Yi slowly exhaled a breath. After the blood and energy were gripped, his body began to become active, and the previous pain was gradually disappearing.
"Lin Jie, the martial arts method I gave you must be practiced diligently. From the few words revealed by the examiner this time, it can be seen that the Golden Academy is not peaceful either. There may also be cruel battles, otherwise, there wouldn't suddenly be this actual combat assessment."
"I understand, I also smelled the scent of a storm coming."
Lin Yue nodded solemnly and said: "After I go back this time, I will stay in the cultivation room of the training base and not come out. And I will also restrain others, let others practice hard. And this time after listening to the teacher's lecture, I also have some insights into condensing the soul, and I believe there will be great progress."
"That's good." Li Yi said.
When the two were communicating simply, suddenly, a loud noise came.
It turned out that Jiang Mingtian, who had just participated in the assessment, was smashed to the ground, a large pit appeared around him, and at the same time, a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out, and his face instantly turned pale. Obviously, he was not slightly injured, but he was still unconvinced, let out a roar, and rushed out from the ground, proving that he still had the strength to counterattack and was not completely crushed by these three strikes.
"You have also passed the assessment." Shen Chong didn't make a move again. Under his probing, this Jiang Mingtian was also qualified.
Although the performance was a bit poor, considering that this Jiang Mingtian specialized in cold weapons, it was understandable.
"That's good." Upon hearing this, Jiang Mingtian immediately stopped, stopped his hand, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.
If he had been weeded out in this assessment, it would have been too embarrassing. Fortunately, it passed without any danger.
"Shen Chong, you've worked hard too. There's only one last one left. Let me be responsible for the assessment." At this time, the female examiner named Jiang Lin spoke at this moment, then she walked over slowly, her gaze looking at the woman in plain clothes on the other side.
"Alright, then I'll trouble you." Shen Chong nodded, not refusing.
What was surprising was that this woman in plain clothes looked very weak, but her strength was not simple at all. She forcefully took the examiner's three strikes and didn't lose or retreat, still having the strength to counterattack.
Obviously, that woman in plain clothes also passed the assessment.
"Now everyone has finished the assessment. There shouldn't be any other requirements, right?" The purple-eyed man stared at the three examiners and said at this moment.
Yu Hai smiled and said: "Cultivation value test, actual combat assessment, after passing these two items, you can be specially recruited into the Golden Academy. There won't be any other requirements. It's just that before that, you need to register some of your information. After the information registration is completed, you can leave. It will be about ten days, and there will be a plane to pick you up to the Golden Academy."
Hearing this, everyone's hearts couldn't help but relax.
They didn't want to be tossed around by the assessment anymore.
Although the content of this assessment only had two items, the difficulty was not ordinary.
"However, don't be happy too early. After entering the Golden Academy, there is also an assessment system. If you can't pass, it's still possible to be kicked out. Of course, I believe that with your strength, you can complete the assessment." Yu Hai said suddenly again.
"Alright, don't waste time. Come and register your information. We'll meet again in the Golden Academy if there's a chance." Shen Chong on the side said.
Everyone remained silent at this moment, all walking forward to register their names and information one by one.
After Li Yi finished registering his information, he didn't stay long either, but took Lin Yue and left here quickly.
Since the assessment of the Golden Academy had ended, he should return to Tianchang City as soon as possible to deal with some things, and then go to the Golden Academy with peace of mind.
However, just after he walked out of the building, the evolvers who had participated in the assessment followed him one after another.
"Hey, Li Yi, you seem to have been targeted by them." Lin Yue pulled his hand and whispered.
"I felt it." Li Yi paused his steps at this moment.
However, before he could speak, suddenly, the tall man with purple pupils wearing sci-fi armor walked over and said: "Li Yi, let's make a deal. I want to use that spaceship to trade for a copy of your martial arts method. This spaceship is worth a lot, and it has never been sold to the outside world. It is a product of cross-dimensional travel. I believe it is enough to prove my sincerity."
He didn't have the slightest concealment, directly stating his purpose, and also proactively showing his chips.
Once this price was offered, the expressions of the other few people changed.
Good fellow.
He was really generous; a spaceship was given away just like that?
Li Yi stared at this person and looked him over.
The purple-eyed man said: "And I can guarantee that I won't pass on your martial arts method. You can sell it to others in the future."
"The conditions are good, but you are willing to offer such a high price without even determining the level of my martial arts method?" Li Yi said.
He didn't oppose normal trading; what he opposed was the way Yang Yi Long coerced him back then.
"Since it's a trade, naturally there are gains and losses. Let's just treat it as a gamble." The purple-eyed man said with a calm gaze, obviously having great courage.
Li Yi looked at the others again: "Do you also want to trade with me?"
"Not bad. My chip is that I will take you across dimensions to learn the totem method and sacrificial dance of another world." The man named Di Zhuan said with burning eyes: "At present, I am the only one who knows about that world, but for the sake of the martial arts method, I can share it with you."
As soon as he opened his mouth, the chips were also shockingly large, actually willing to share a cross-dimensional point.
As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Yue on the side had her breathing quicken.
Mastering a cross-dimensional point meant being able to easily cross dimensions without opening the cross-dimensional gate, and being able to learn the cultivation method of another world and obtain the resources of another world, with endless benefits.
This Di Zhuan was really desperate to obtain the martial arts method.
Di Zhuan seemed worried that Li Yi wouldn't agree, and continued: "Now the Heaven-Tilting Incident could happen at any time. No one is sure how long this world can last. Now, resource exchange is the most important thing. This is helpful to everyone and can quickly improve strength. Otherwise, even if we enter the Golden Academy, we might become the bottom existence."
