Familiar aura?

Hearing the two sisters' statement, Lu Li revealed a flash of realization. He had come to the Trial Road by riding the Red-Eyes Black Dragon, and his body was somewhat stained with a trace of the Black Dragon's aura. The two girls were from the Dragon Valley, so they probably sensed this and expressed confusion.

It's just that, their sensitivity to aura is too strong, or should I say, as expected of Magic Card Masters from the Dragon Valley?

However, can you change the way you ask before asking? This is very easy to cause misunderstandings!

However, before Lu Li could answer the two girls' questions, a terrifying pressure descended from the sky.

"It's here!" Almost instantly, every freshman who felt this pressure had such a thought in their hearts. Even the two Dragon Maidens, Zi Yan and Zi Yao, did not pay attention to Lu Li at this moment, but both turned their heads.

Seeing this, Lu Li was happy to be idle, but his eyes also looked toward the place where the pressure came from.

The originally relatively noisy scene suddenly became silent at this moment. Immediately after, everyone saw a female mentor floating in mid-air. The pressure just now was released from her body.

"Jantai Mingyue, you can call me Mentor Jantai. Next, regarding the test of the Trial Road, I will be responsible for it." Jantai Mingyue, floating in mid-air, spoke slowly, saying words that made everyone nervous.

Although they had all been admitted to the Heavenly Mansion, no one knew what kind of test would be waiting for them on the Trial Road, and more importantly, this was their first battle after entering the Heavenly Mansion. If their performance in the Trial Road was not good enough, then this first impression of entering the Heavenly Mansion would be greatly discounted.

"Being able to stand here proves that your talent is higher and your strength is stronger than the candidates of the same session." Scanning the circle, Jantai Mingyue did not hesitate to praise everyone in front of her. After all, these people were those who stood out from hundreds of millions of candidates, so their talent and strength would naturally not be bad.

If they were bad, wouldn't it mean that the Heavenly Mansion's vision for recruiting students also had problems?

Her eyes scanned Shangguan Wan'er, and Jantai Mingyue nodded secretly. Although she promised Shangguan Pu, she naturally hoped that her students would be outstanding enough.

It's just that, after seeing the others beside Shangguan Wan'er, Jantai Mingyue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. She didn't expect that the other party would actually know two freshmen from the Dragon Valley.

However, now is not the time to consider these things. The test of the Trial Road is still waiting for her to open.

Hearing Jantai Mingyue's praise, everyone couldn't help but show a trace of pride, but the next moment they became nervous again because of Jantai Mingyue's words.

"However, the Heavenly Mansion is different from ordinary Magic Card universities," Jantai Mingyue's mouth slightly curled up, forming a beautiful arc: "In your original high schools, you might all be unique geniuses, but unfortunately, this is the Heavenly Mansion, and the thing the Heavenly Mansion lacks the most is geniuses."

"Or rather, if they are not talented enough, Magic Card Masters will not be admitted to the Heavenly Mansion." Speaking of this, Jantai Mingyue's voice became cold: "So, the test of the Trial Road next, I hope you can give it your all. This concerns your resource allocation in the academy next."

"A lion fights a rabbit with all its strength. If you don't want to be one step behind others just after entering the academy, then treat the test of the Trial Road well!" As her voice fell, Jantai Mingyue waved her hand, and the entire space came with a "rumbling" sound. A portal slowly unfolded in the depths of the void, exuding a strange aura: "Regarding the assessment content of this session of the Trial Road, it will only be announced after you enter."

The assessment content of each session of the Trial Road is different. Besides this, what kind of assessment they will face is only clear to Mansion Lord Wen Xiuyuan and the responsible mentors. Others can only wait until they enter the Trial Road to be announced. This is also to prevent cheating.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, and then they crossed the portal one after another to enter the Trial Road. Lu Li also followed Shangguan Wan'er and the girls to cross the door, disappearing in a flash.

"Phew, finally they all went in." After a while, waiting for all the freshmen to enter the Trial Road, Jantai Mingyue waved her hand again to close the portal. The coldness on her face disappeared instantly, and instead, she had a bitter face: "Sure enough, I am not suitable for this kind of work on the stage."

Although Jantai Mingyue possesses the strength of the Sovereign Realm and handles various things with ease, she becomes very nervous in front of people, especially in big scenes.

This matter has nothing to do with strength, it is purely a personal problem. But this Trial Road is also an assessment for her. No matter how unsuitable Jantai Mingyue is, she can only bite the bullet.

"Yes, Mingyue girl, your various aspects are not bad, but only in this point, you haven't grown much for so many years," Wen Xiuyuan's figure walked out of the void accompanied by his voice: "To be honest, with your strength of the Emperor Realm, and being a mentor of the Heavenly Mansion, is it necessary to be so afraid of a group of freshmen who are at most in the Commander Realm?"

"Yes, Sister Mingyue, your performance just now was actually quite good." Behind Jantai Mingyue, Meng Ningdie also appeared from the void.

"Good, so you arrived early, and you were actually hiding on the side to watch the show." Startled by Meng Ningdie, Jantai Mingyue retorted in annoyance, and her fair hand pinched Meng Ningdie's small face: "Can't you change a position to appear? I was almost scared to death by you."

For Wen Xiuyuan, Jantai Mingyue couldn't be so unscrupulous. After all, the other party is the Mansion Lord of the Heavenly Mansion and her immediate superior. But for Meng Ningdie, it was different. Even if the other party is a student of the Night Queen, Jantai Mingyue didn't have too many scruples. The relationship between the two is not ordinary.

Being pinched by Jantai Mingyue, Meng Ningdie could only make meaningless "woo woo woo" sounds in her mouth.

174. Trial Road · Survival Game!

After a while, Jantai Mingyue, who finally vented her anger, retracted her hand with satisfaction, but there was also a trace of doubt on her face: "The Mansion Lord is fine. According to his meaning, it was a whim, so he came. But why did you come this time? I remember that even if someone from your family was admitted to the Heavenly Mansion in the past, you wouldn't show up."

"Mingyue girl, don't think I didn't hear you." Wen Xiuyuan couldn't help but have black lines on his head. What is "the Mansion Lord is fine"?

"Chuyun is different from others. After all, she is my niece. If I, as an aunt, don't show up, it wouldn't be right." Rubbing her small face pinched red by Jantai Mingyue, Meng Ningdie couldn't help but roll her eyes at the other party: "Sister Mingyue, your hand is too heavy."

"Is that so?" Jantai Mingyue didn't quite believe Meng Ningdie's explanation, but the other party's statement didn't seem to have any problems.

"The Trial Road has started, how long are you going to chat?" Countless light screens had already unfolded in front of Wen Xiuyuan, each screen corresponding to a freshman, which could be called all-around monitoring of the dynamics of all freshmen.

If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that just one glance would make them dizzy, but for Wen Xiuyuan in the Immortal Realm, this did not even cause him any discomfort.

Hearing Wen Xiuyuan's reminder, Jantai Mingyue and Meng Ningdie also gave up their bickering and looked at the countless light screens. Even if their strength is a bit worse than Wen Xiuyuan, they can clearly see the situation of each freshman.

And among them, Lu Li, who is in the very center, is undoubtedly the most conspicuous.

"If I remember correctly, this is Lu Li, the first place in this college entrance examination. I don't know how he will perform on this Trial Road." Jantai Mingyue's gaze carried a trace of interest. After all, judging from the results of the college entrance examination, Lu Li was indeed a point stronger than Shangguan Wan'er: "It's a pity that under the rules of the college entrance examination, we have no way to view the process back then."

In her impression, Shangguan Wan'er was standing beside Lu Li just now. Could it be that these two know each other? But it's also right, both are from Cangdu, the probability of both sides knowing each other is indeed very high.

"That's right, you can look forward to Lu Li's performance." Meng Ningdie's tone was full of trust in Lu Li. Regarding the strength of this junior brother, she still knew better than Jantai Mingyue.

"Is that so?" Hearing Meng Ningdie's inexplicable confidence, Jantai Mingyue flashed a trace of doubt in her eyes: "Why do I feel like you seem very familiar with Lu Li?"

"Is there? It must be your illusion." Meng Ningdie replied calmly: "However, I did use the teacher's authority to watch Lu Li's performance in the college entrance examination."

I always feel like this girl just showed off in front of me! Hearing Meng Ningdie's words, Jantai Mingyue couldn't help but roll her eyes. Having a Domain Lord teacher is really something to show off.

"It is indeed possible to look forward to Lu Li's performance. After all, it is also the first time I have seen a freshman participate in the Trial Road of the Heavenly Mansion with the strength of the Monarch Realm." Wen Xiuyuan spoke at the right time, stopping Jantai Mingyue from continuing to question, but his words also made the two girls' eyes shrink, even Meng Ningdie was no exception.

"Monarch Realm? Mansion Lord, you didn't say it wrong, did you?" After the shock, Jantai Mingyue was the first to refute. She really found it hard to believe that the strength of a freshman who had just enrolled had reached the Monarch Realm.

You know, even in the Heavenly Mansion where geniuses are like clouds, the Monarch Realm is enough to rank in the top fifty. Generally, students in this position are at least third-year students.

Although the Heavenly Mansion adopts a credit ranking system, it still cannot erase the gap brought by time, especially since every student here is a genius, so senior students still have a certain advantage compared to junior students.

"Junior brother Lu Li is too ruthless. I feel a bit of pressure now." Unlike Jantai Mingyue's first-time refutation, Meng Ningdie was still inclined to believe Wen Xiuyuan's words, but this made her feel pressure.

After all, even she did not break through to the Monarch Realm when she enrolled and participated in the Trial Road.

"Although this is indeed quite unbelievable, I don't think I'm wrong." Wen Xiuyuan also sighed.

Since talking with Meng Ningdie, he had studied the information about Lu Li in detail, and even ran to Cangdu to find Cang Ao and Shangguan Hong to understand. Being able to be favored by the Night Queen and accepted as a student, and also being an original Magic Card producer, Lu Li is enough for him to attach such importance to.

It's just that Wen Xiuyuan didn't expect that when he first saw Lu Li in person, the other party had already broken through to the Monarch Realm: "This has broken the record for the highest level of freshmen entering the Heavenly Mansion."

Hiss! Getting Wen Xiuyuan's affirmative answer again, Jantai Mingyue couldn't help but gasp. This Lu Li seems a bit fierce!

……

【Theme of this Trial Road: Survival Game!】

【After each freshman enters the Trial Road, a stronghold and a trial crystal will be automatically generated with themselves as the center. The trial crystal possesses 100 basic points. While in the stronghold, the trial crystal gains 1 additional point every hour.】

【The Trial Road refreshes a batch of mimic beasts every thirty minutes. The higher the level of the beast killed, the higher the points obtained. Mimic beasts not killed within thirty minutes will increase by one level when the next batch of mimic beasts is released.】

【Every two hours, the two freshmen whose positions are closest to each other are randomly teleported to the battle space. After defeating the opponent, they can continue the Trial Road. The defeated freshman loses the qualification to continue participating in the Trial Road.】

【For every freshman eliminated, additional points can be obtained.】

【The final result is determined by points. The credits obtained in the Trial Road can be exchanged for corresponding credits after enrollment. Please pay attention to all freshmen.】

【Countdown: 20 minutes!】

Spending a few minutes, Lu Li digested the assessment points related to the Trial Road in his mind. During this period, a special stronghold had been formed radiating a hundred meters outward with his location as the center, and a slightly dim diamond-shaped crystal floated beside Lu Li.

"Survival game? But it seems that wanting to get high points and good rankings is not an easy thing." Speaking of this, a trace of strange expression rose on Lu Li's face: "Speaking of which, if all other contestants are eliminated, this seems to be a way to win."

Every two hours, the two closest freshmen will be teleported to the battle space. Winning naturally allows them to continue the trial, and losing means they can only be eliminated.

But this does not mean that they can only eliminate opponents in the battle space. Right now, everyone is in the Trial Road, which means that while they are killing mimic beasts, they can actually take action against others.

This clearly tells everyone that only the strongest can survive to the end of the Trial Road, which also corresponds to the theme of this time. ===== CHAPTER 93 =====

175. Intelligence Expert! Sistermon Ciel!

"One more thing, the rules also mentioned at the end that for every freshman eliminated, you can get extra points. And the points obtained on the Path of Trials can be exchanged for credits after official enrollment. Credits are related to rankings and the acquisition of resources. This time, it really forces everyone to be competitive." At this moment, Lu Li finally understood how great the competition in the Heavenly Mansion was.

Damn, they had only just reported for enrollment, and it was already this competitive. One can imagine how competitive it would be in the Heavenly Mansion after official enrollment.

"I don't know if others have thought of this, but now everyone is scattered. Even if you want to make a move, you don't know the location of others. Since that's the case, let's scout and confirm first." While speaking, Lu Li waved his hand and summoned Sistermon Blanc, and the D-3 Digivice and the Super Evolution Component S appeared on his hand simultaneously.

"Blanc, get ready." As the words fell, the Super Evolution Component S in Lu Li's hand was swiped into the D-3 Digivice. The next moment, an endless amount of data enveloped Blanc's body.

"Tamer, we finally meet." The data covering Blanc's body had disappeared, but the one who appeared this time was not Noir, but another member of the Sistermon family, Sistermon Ciel.

【Sistermon Blanc successfully evolved, Sistermon Ciel information updated, obtained Magic Power Reflux!】

As another older sister of Blanc, Ciel and Noir are twins. Besides their figures, the most noticeable difference among the three Sistermon sisters is the hood they wear on their heads, representing different animals.

Blanc is a rabbit, Noir is a black cat, and the animal on Ciel's hood is a mouse. Besides that, the weapon Ciel uses is not a trident or dual pistols, but a long, narrow blade.

In terms of personality, it is also different from Blanc and Noir. Ciel's personality is more steady and generous, and her heart is the most resilient among the three, which is one of the reasons Lu Li values her.

"Ciel, I'll trouble you with the scouting and investigation tasks." Hearing Sistermon Ciel's words, Lu Li didn't feel too surprised. After all, when Noir was summoned for the first time, she had a similar performance. The three Sistermon sisters seem to possess some kind of special connection.

【Sistermon Ciel】

Race: Digimon Doll Type

Quality: Perfect

Level: Five-star

Skills: Blanc-tome Ichimonji-giri, Blanc-satsu, Grand Sistermon Cross, Awakening

Blanc-tome Ichimonji-giri: Wields the beloved sword Blanc-tome Ichimonji, launching a powerful slash at the target. The blade is imbued with the power of light, capable of absorbing all light effects. The attack is silent and soundless the moment it is launched, and only hitting the enemy directly will attract attention.

Blanc-satsu: Sistermon Ciel is adept at using various assassination skills. During battle, she throws the ninja blades hidden in her sleeves to launch silent and soundless attacks, with a certain probability of triggering an armor-piercing effect.

Grand Sistermon Cross: A combination skill inherited by the Sistermon lineage. During the release, she will split into Blanc and Noir forms to launch a coordinated attack. The destructive power of the full-force strike is comparable to a Perfect-level Digimon.

Awakening: Activates the Holy Brand to enter the Awakening state, increasing the level by one.

"The data is not much different from Noir's. I had already predicted this before. However, among the Magic Cards I currently hold, Ciel is undoubtedly the most suitable for the current needs." Glancing over Sistermon Ciel's information, Lu Li had a more intuitive understanding of this big sister of the Sistermon family.
