Chapter 1922: You're using this to test perseverance?

Watching Ye Changqing and the others drift down, the prodigies present were ecstatic, while the deacons hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Greetings, Elder Ye, Peak Master Baihua, Peak Master Jueying."

Nodding slightly, Ye Changqing looked at these ecstatic young prodigies with a somewhat strange expression.

He, Fairy Baihua, and Jueying coming here naturally couldn't be to preside over the mountain-opening recruitment.

Having the elders present was enough for that; he was only here because he had been entrusted by Until Hong Zun to help complete the second round of the assessment.

It was just that, how should one put it, Until Hong Zun's idea—even Ye Changqing felt it was a bit perverted. Is this a method a human could come up with?

But since he was already here, he could only follow through. As for the result, that wasn't something he needed to worry about.

Nodding to the deacons, the deacons turned to look at the young prodigies and said.

"Quiet."

"The second round of the assessment begins..."

As they spoke, the deacons waved their hands, and circles of light appeared beneath the feet of the young prodigies.

"The rules are simple: you must not leave the circle of light beneath your feet. Those who step out are eliminated."

Just this one requirement? Hearing this, the prodigies were stunned. So simple? If it was just not leaving the circle, they could sit for half a month without any problem at all.

Could it be that this round was just to see who could keep their cool?

The prodigies secretly guessed in their hearts, but at this moment, with the help of Fairy Baihua and Jueying, Ye Changqing had already set up a stove.

Watching Ye Changqing's actions, the prodigies were all a bit bewildered. What did this mean? Cooking during an assessment? Could it be that they were fortunate enough to eat food personally prepared by Lord Food Ancestor?

Providing meals during the sect entry assessment, and personally prepared by Lord Food Ancestor at that? Many prodigies couldn't help but beam with joy.

One must know that in the outside world, being able to eat a box of dry rations personally prepared by Lord Food Ancestor was something that made countless people envious and jealous.

But now, Lord Food Ancestor was actually cooking for them right in front of their eyes?

Thinking this, some were already unable to stop themselves from drooling.

And looking at the smiles on the faces of these young prodigies, the deacons shook their heads. These little fellows were probably unaware of what they were about to encounter.

The Peak Master's idea was simply inhuman.

Ye Changqing didn't waste words, directly setting up the pot to start preparing the delicacies.

As time passed, a rich fragrance slowly drifted out.

This fragrance rushed into the noses of the prodigies in an unreasonable way. For a moment, the prodigies, who were already drooling, could no longer hold back.

"What are you doing?"

Watching the person beside him stand up inexplicably, eyes fixed straight on where Ye Changqing was.

The person beside him hurriedly shouted. Did this guy not want to succeed?

It was a pity that the other person didn't hear a word of it; with one step, the person walked right out of the circle.

"Eliminated."

At this moment, the deacon's voice rang out, and this prodigy directly ended in failure.

"This..."

Watching someone get eliminated just as it started, the many prodigies present were stunned on the spot, a terrifying thought involuntarily surging in their minds.

"This assessment wouldn't be..."

The previously joyful eyes instantly turned fearful.

They had previously thought Ye Changqing's appearance was to give them a benefit, but looking at it now, where was the benefit? This was clearly being inhuman again. ===== CHAPTER 1923 =====
