Chapter 9 Entry Assessment
As a well-informed Bao, Zhuang Youqian already knew what the Hengtian Sect's entrance test was.

Not only did he know, he also gave the information he collected to Xie Zhengliu and Yue Mingchou for free, saying, "We are all people who have experienced life and death together, and they are still worrying about what to do with a few pieces of spiritual stone."

But if others want to know the inside story from him, the price they need to pay is not small.

Thanks to Zhuang Youqian, Xie Zhengliu learned that the entrance test of Hengtian Sect was divided into three sessions, namely, training the heart, training the nature, and training the will.

The three-level assessment is all conducted on the long steps of the inner mountain gate. Only the disciples who pass the three levels and climb the long steps within the specified time can be officially admitted to the Hengtian Sect.

It seems that Xie Zhengliu had heard a lot about such assessments in his previous life. It was said that each of the Zhengdao sects had a "ladder to heaven" used to test their disciples.Now it seems that it may not be fake.

A loud ringing of a bell soon came from the inner mountain gate, and Xie Zhengliu knew that this meant the official start of the assessment.

Sure enough, the transparent barrier on the long steps disappeared in an instant, and the children who had been standing at the end of the long steps rushed up like crazy, as if they were afraid of falling behind.

Several of the children wearing magic weapons ran particularly fast. They should have come from a cultivation family in the middle three thousand, and their health was many times better than those children who came from the lower three thousand.

After briefly scanning the people on the long steps, Xie Zhengliu quickly stepped forward with Zhuang Youqian and the others.

As soon as she stepped onto the long steps, Xie Zhengliu felt a weak spiritual power wash over her body.

Zhuang Youqian had mentioned to them before that in order to prevent children with magical weapons from using their spiritual power to cheat, the Hengtian Sect had set up formations on the long steps, which to a certain extent ensured the fairness of the entrance examination.

The end of the long steps was hidden in the clouds, making it unclear how many steps there were.Xie Zhengliu and the others could only keep climbing up, trying to end it all as soon as possible.

But the Hengtian Sect's test could never be so simple. Less than an hour later, when Xie Zhengliu reached the thousandth step, her legs suddenly felt as heavy as lead.Not even raising my feet once did I have to exert all my strength.

Not only her, but the new disciples who had also bought a thousand steps around them all showed difficult expressions. Some even knelt on the long steps on the spot, unable to take a step out.

Guessing that this was probably part of the assessment, Xie Zhengliu gritted his teeth and climbed up using his hands and feet.Zhuang Youqian saw this and quickly started to learn it, which indeed saved a lot of effort.

Walking at the forefront like them was Feng Tianci, who had had a conflict with Yue Mingchou before. The young man glanced at the movements of Xie Zhengliu and the other three, and even though it was equally difficult for him to take steps, he still taunted: "Oh, it really is. A despicable person, even if his spiritual roots are superior, he can't change his despicable nature!"

Xie Zhengliu looked at him silently and said nothing. Instead, he speeded up and quickly climbed in front of the young man.

Zhuang Youqian wanted to argue with the other party, but seeing Xie Zhengliu walking away so fast, he had no choice but to urge Yue Mingqiu to follow him.

Feng Tianci thought that the three of them were afraid of him, and he looked down on Xie Zhengliu and the others more and more.

Unexpectedly, after finally climbing up the first step, Xie Zhengliu, who was in front of him, seemed to have lost his footing and suddenly fell straight towards him!

Feng Tianci was unable to dodge and was hit on the head by Xie Zhengliu.He rolled down a dozen steps and landed directly a thousand steps away. His previous efforts were in vain.

Xie Zhengliu, on the other hand, stepped back one step and returned to the previous position with a force of his hands and feet.

This scene made Feng Tianci very angry. Without the suppression of the formation, he immediately jumped to his feet and cursed: "You, a lowly pariah, dare to plot against me!" "I'm really sorry, Master Feng, I'm just too tired." , His hands and feet were weak for a moment. A person of noble birth like you shouldn't care about a pariah like me, right?" Xie Zhengliu turned around, "It's a pity that you crawled for so long in vain. I don't know if Master Feng still has the strength to continue. climb?"

After saying that, no matter how angry Feng Tianci was behind him, Xie Zhengliu continued to use his hands and feet to crawl forward under the increasing pressure.

Zhuang Youqian laughed twice and patted Yue Mingqiu on the shoulder: "Look, this means that evil people will have their own troubles."

"Are you saying Xie Zhengliu is a bad person?" Yue Mingchou shook off Zhuang Youqian's hand, as if he had grasped the opponent's leverage.

Zhuang Youqian immediately stopped laughing: "Don't talk nonsense, I am praising Xiao Xie for his wit and bravery!"

After saying that, he quickly crawled away, not daring to say these small words to Yue Mingqiu anymore.

In a place unknown to a few people, the sect leaders and elders of Hengtian Sect were sitting on jade chairs, looking at the previous scene through countless water mirrors.

One of them, a middle-aged monk wearing a black robe with deep wrinkles between his brows, pointed at Xie Zhengliu and said, "This woman took action because of a few discordant remarks from others. She has such a cruel temperament. I'm afraid she is not what we, the Hengtian Sect, should do." Disciple!"

"Ha!" The woman in red with an enchanting face raised her lips, "If that boy from the Feng family hadn't provoked him first, how could that little girl take action? Besides, there are many examples of people attacking people around them on the steps. Haven't we seen people beating people directly before? Why didn't Elder Chen say anything at that time? "

Elder Chen's face was not red but his heart was not beating: "It was two male disciples attacking each other earlier. Isn't it easier for men to have friction? This woman is unilaterally harming others. How can they be confused?"

Hearing these words, the female elder in red almost laughed out loud: "I knew that the Feng family gave you a big gift and asked you to protect some of the Feng family's children, but I didn't expect that you didn't even want to lose face. In front of the sect master Chen Lou, do you have any sense of shame in saying such things in front of me?"

Elder Chen's face darkened, and he seemed about to jump up and fight with the female elder on the spot.

But the two of them didn't even have a chance to make a move. The sect leader raised his hand and the tension between the two disappeared: "Okay, I, the Hengtian Sect, will accept the disciple only to see if he can pass the three levels, and will not care about the rest. .”

Sect leader Yu Heng's gaze briefly glanced at Elder Chen and the female elder in red, causing the two of them to swallow back all their anger.

The elders in the hall exchanged glances with each other, and then turned their attention to the water mirror in front of them again, but it was not clear what they were thinking in their hearts.

At this moment, a large number of the new disciples on the long steps are still outside the thousand steps, while a small number have already entered within the thousand steps.

Xie Zhengliu and his entourage, as well as several children from cultivation families, reluctantly walked at the front.At this moment, they were shouldering a pressure that was dozens of times heavier than at the beginning, and every move they made seemed to drain the last bit of strength from their bodies.

Not to mention Zhuang Youqian, who looked weak, even Xie Zhengliu and Yue Mingqiu had been washed with sweat, and they were breathing heavily one after another.

She didn't know how long she had persisted under such heavy pressure. When Xie Zhengliu climbed up another step, her whole body relaxed.The burden on her back seemed to be lifted off instantly, which made her originally difficult breathing easier.

However, before he could relax for long, Xie Zhengliu's eyes went blank and he was pulled into another world.

A loud rumbling sound exploded in her ears, and when she raised her head to look up at the sky, the figure standing under the thick clouds of calamity immediately took away all her attention.
