141: :Mirror of the Illusion

After he finished speaking, he directly led his subordinates and also left.

The crowd was left bewildered, looking at each other, unsure what to say for a moment.

"What? Young Master Feng said that this person named Lin Xiao is not an Ancient Prodigy?"

"Uh... it seems so."

"How is that possible? If he's not an Ancient Prodigy, how could he possess such powerful strength?!"

"Yes, looking at his strength, he should be on par with Young Master Feng and Saintess Yaoyao."

"Exactly, exactly. With such Heaven-Defying strength, how could he not be an Ancient Prodigy?"

The crowd discussed animatedly, questioning Feng Tianyang's words.

However, as they chatted, the topic soon returned to Li Qingyu.

"This guy named Li Qingyu is really lucky, to have latched onto such a powerful big shot."

"Yeah, who cares if Lin Xiao is an Ancient Prodigy or not, he's just awesome. But I'm genuinely envious of this Li Qingyu."

"How is this Li Qingyu merely lucky? This is practically the Emperor of Luck possessing him, getting an entry qualification for free."

"Sigh, if only I could also latch onto such a big shot. I've already participated in the selection trials twice."

"Little brother, you're not good enough. That guy Li Qingyu has tried four or five times, and you've only tried three."

"Is that so? Do diligent people really become lucky?"

"You're dreaming. Luck is always for others, not for yourself."

"It seems so..."

After the crowd's discussions, two thunder-like voices resounded in the center of the plaza.

"The first round of the competition has ended. Disciples who failed the challenge, please remove your wristbands and quickly exit."

"The first round of the competition has ended. Disciples who failed the challenge, please remove your wristbands and quickly exit."

It was the Elder who had presided over the competition from the very beginning.

As the Elder's voice fell, a large number of people walked out of the plaza.

In a short moment, two-thirds of the people in the entire plaza instantly disappeared.

Seeing the people in the plaza continuously retreating, leaving only the four hundred successful challengers, the Azure Emperor Sect Elder continued to speak.

"Alright, we will continue the competition. The second round is the Illusion Realm Trial."

"My Azure Emperor Sect has never recruited Disciples of great evil since ancient times, so if you can pass this round of the competition, you can officially become an Outer Sect Disciple of my Azure Emperor Sect," the Azure Emperor Sect Elder said, looking at the remaining people in the plaza with a serious expression.

After confirming that no one was trying to sneak in and remain in the plaza, he took out a huge mirror and began the second round of the competition.

"This is the Illusion Heart Spirit Mirror, a mid-grade Sacred Artifact."

"Later, you just need to relax your mind and await the Spirit Mirror's test," the Azure Emperor Sect Elder said indifferently.

After speaking, he threw the Illusion Heart Spirit Mirror into the air, injected a trace of Saint Origin spiritual power into it, and then left.

Boom!!!

The moment the Azure Emperor Sect Elder left.

The entire Spirit Mirror suddenly erupted with an extremely powerful spiritual power fluctuation.

Five-colored divine light burst forth, and accompanied by this spiritual power, it instantly swept across the entire Moon Spirit Plaza.

"Alright, everyone, relax your minds and prepare to receive the Spirit Mirror's baptism," seeing this, the Azure Emperor Sect Elder said indifferently.

As soon as he spoke, all the Disciples in the entire plaza sat down cross-legged.

They tried to communicate with the Spirit Mirror floating in the air and begin the trial.

As time passed, more and more Disciples opened their eyes.

They stood up with a calm aura and walked to the side of the plaza.

The Azure Emperor Sect Elder nodded with satisfaction at this scene.

Because maintaining a calm aura after receiving the baptism was the best state for passing the test.

"Ah, I can't take it anymore, I want to withdraw from the competition."

However, at this moment, a Disciple in the center of the plaza suddenly stood up, his aura chaotic and his expression flustered.

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly ran out of the Moon Spirit Plaza.

"Hmph, only those with extremely evil hearts will be unable to withstand the test of this Illusion Heart Spirit Mirror. Do you think you can escape?"

Looking at the fleeing Disciple, the Azure Emperor Sect Elder coldly snorted.

As he spoke, a needle of Spiritual Qi formed in his hand, flying towards that person at an astonishing speed.

Crack!!!

Accompanied by a crisp sound, the Disciple hadn't even run out of the Moon Spirit Plaza.

He was instantly pierced through the head by the spiritual needle, and blood flowed all over the ground.

This caused all the Disciples who witnessed it to collectively gasp, looking at the Azure Emperor Sect Elder with wary eyes.

However, this was only limited to those Disciples who had already passed the trial.

As for the others, since they had not yet passed the trial, their Divine Sense was still trapped in the Spirit Mirror, and they did not know what was happening outside.

As time passed, the trial quickly ended.

Except for the Disciple who was killed by the Azure Emperor Sect Elder at the very beginning, all other Disciples passed the test.

At this time, there were three hundred and ninety-nine people remaining in the plaza.

This meant that all three hundred and ninety-nine people advanced, gloriously becoming Outer Sect Disciples of the Azure Emperor Sect.

"Congratulations on successfully passing the trial. The third round of the competition will be held the day after tomorrow. You may first come and collect your Sect Disciple tokens."

After the competition ended, the Azure Emperor Sect Elder said.

As soon as he finished speaking, he took out three hundred and ninety-nine Outer Sect Disciple tokens from his Storage Ring and threw them towards the crowd.

"Tomorrow morning, the third round of the competition, the arena challenge, will be held on the arena of the Sect Trial Platform."

"This competition is not mandatory, so participation is not forced."

"But if any Disciple wishes to participate, they can register with their token. The top ten ranked Disciples will receive incredibly generous rewards," the Azure Emperor Sect Elder said, and then disappeared from the spot.

"Oh yeah, hurray! I've finally become an Outer Sect Disciple of the Azure Emperor Sect!"

"Yes, I've worked hard for over a decade, and this moment has finally arrived."

"I need to go tell my parents the good news first. If they know I've joined the Azure Emperor Sect, they'll be overjoyed."

"I need to go back too. How about we go together?"

"Great! Let's go back and share the good news."

After the Azure Emperor Sect Elder left, a huge cheer erupted in the entire plaza.

However, as the crowd gradually dispersed, the cheering also slowly faded.

"Brother Lin Xiao, where are you planning to go next?" After the competition ended, Li Qingyu asked Lin Xiao.

"Hehe, where else can I go? Of course, I'm returning to the Azure Emperor Sect," Lin Xiao laughed.

Aside from the Azure Emperor Sect, he didn't seem to have anywhere else to go.

"Mm-hmm, I need to go home first to tell my father the news of my joining the Azure Emperor Sect. Then I'll go to the Azure Emperor Sect to find you," Li Qingyu said.

"Of course, we can meet at the arena then," Lin Xiao said.

"Alright," Li Qingyu nodded.

After speaking, he ran off into the distance.

"Greetings, Father God."

After Li Qingyu left, a clear voice suddenly rang out behind Lin Xiao.
