Qin Mu stopped dwelling on it and asked in return:
"One more question, what about the Geniuses from the Transcendent Factions later? If they come to trial, do they also take these stone steps?"
Ao Mengmeng nodded.
"There are five trials on Sword Mountain, and Green Peak is the only guardian!"
"Can't we just kill them directly whey they come in?" Qin Mu asked back.
"No~!"
Ao Mengmeng said helplessly, "Daylight's rule back then was that no matter the method, once they entered, they were trial participants. If they could make it to Sword Mountain despite the Heavenly Sword Sect Disciples obstruction and successfully pass the trial, they could be exceptionally accepted as Inner Sect Disciples."
This was a two-way trial.
Besides Yao Beasts, Heavenly Sword Sect Disciples also needed to guard against Geniuses from other forces who managed to enter the Secret Realm.
Hm!
