Chapter 1924: Everyone is a badass

Teeth bleeding, watching not only the prodigies but also the deacons responsible for the assessment with blood overflowing from their mouths, Ye Changqing was directly paralyzed.

This isn't going to cause a death, is it?

"Are you all okay?"

He asked the dozen deacons with concern. Hearing this, the deacons turned their heads, showing Ye Changqing a smile uglier than crying, and shook their heads heavily.

Vaguely, Ye Changqing even seemed to see tears in the eyes of these deacons.

What is this all about?

Not knowing what was wrong, Ye Changqing could only shake his head and continue preparing the dishes.

He had agreed with Hong Zun to try to cook for half an hour, and the speed could be slower.

Not in a rush, Ye Changqing operated slowly, but this made it miserable for everyone present.

"I can't hold it anymore."

Many prodigies roared in their hearts. If I have sinned, please let the Heavenly Dao punish me, don't mess with me like this.

"Damn it, is this Dao One Sacred Ground a devil? How could they think of such an assessment method?"

"Damn it."

Many prodigies were indeed reaching their limits. That fragrance was like it could hook a soul; their stomachs had long since been unable to stop growling.

This feeling was like someone dying of thirst in the desert suddenly seeing a mouthful of water—what kind of feeling is that?

But even so, the prodigies still gritted their teeth and held on.

After all, everyone understood the principle of "one full meal vs. meals every day."

If they could join the Dao One Sacred Ground, would there be few opportunities to eat in the future? But if they gave up now, not only would they not be able to eat now, they wouldn't be able to eat in the future either. Therefore, no matter what, they must join the Dao One Sacred Ground.

Desperately gritting their teeth and persisting, but as time passed, the prodigies found it increasingly difficult to endure.

Suddenly, one of the prodigies hardened their heart, directly took out a dagger, the blade flashing with cold light, and then, without hesitation, stabbed it into their own thigh.

"Holy shit..."

Startled by the sudden scene, Ye Changqing was instantly paralyzed.

No, testing perseverance, why resort to self-harm?

And, damn it, the whole dagger went in. Wouldn't that pierce the femoral artery?

"I must join the Dao One Sacred Ground."

Ignoring the gazes of Ye Changqing and those around, the prodigy gritted their teeth and pulled out the dagger, and then, a pillar of blood sprayed out, a full meter high.

"With this amount of bleeding, it must have hit the artery."

Watching the blood pillar like a fountain, Ye Changqing's eyelids twitched, but the prodigy turned a deaf ear.

As long as they could join the Dao One Sacred Ground, a mere stab or two was nothing.

And the other prodigies, after the initial shock, had their eyes light up. This seemed like a good method.

Immediately, more than ten people imitated this prodigy, took out daggers, and without mercy, stabbed their own thighs.

For a time, blood splattered everywhere.

It was clearly just a test of perseverance, but these people made it so bloody. Not just Ye Changqing, even the deacons couldn't help but speak up.

"What are you all..."

"Senior, this doesn't count as a foul, right?"

"This... it doesn't count as a foul, but why bother?"

"Since it's not a foul, then it's fine."

"I can't take it, I can't hold back again, one more stab."

Watching one of the prodigies, without hesitation, stab themselves again, this time in the right leg.

This, this, this... watching these ruthless prodigies, the deacons were also paralyzed.

This is truly ruthless.

In the time that followed, one would see scenes of blood splattering from time to time.

Until half an hour later, the mountaintop was almost swallowed by blood.

But fortunately, Ye Changqing finally stopped his movements. Looking at the many prodigies who were now pale, he opened his mouth, but for a moment didn't know what to say.

They are truly ruthless. These young people are so vicious to themselves; they are characters. ===== CHAPTER 1925 =====
