Dean Dugu was simply stunned!
If he weren't one of the parties involved, he would've almost believed what Feng Xi said!
How could she lie so naturally?
Her face didn't redden, her eyes didn't blink, and she didn't feel guilty at all!
What made him even angrier were those Yellow Class students. They believed whatever she said? Where was their basic judgment?!
Those not of my race must have different hearts, how could I possibly let you team up with the human race?!
No wonder they were all assigned to Yellow Class, a bunch of fools!
Elder Hai and the other three were no less shocked than him, they'd thought the little brats would be ganged up on. In the end, they turned the enemy into… classmates?
What kind of operation was this?
If you can't beat them, join them?!
Seeing the red flame marks between Feng Xi and the others' brows, they became even more speechless.
Finally, Elder Hai said faintly, "Xiao Xi, this child's art skills are quite good. Look at how vividly that red flame was drawn."
Everyone: "..."
Feng Xi bounced around for a while, then stopped and asked Xin Mu, "I was just focused on being excited earlier and forgot to ask. What's our mission? Is it to beat all the other classes to the ground?
I'm good at that, I can fight eight by myself!"
Xin Mu: "..."
Did humans all like boasting this much?!
You're just a little piece of trash in the first layer of Qi Refining, yet you can fight eight by yourself?
If not for the fact that you have four mid Foundation Establishment cultivators among you, we wouldn't even want you!
You're just… an extra!
Xin Mu suppressed the disdain in his heart and said, "Our Tianxu Academy assessment doesn't directly issue the final mission. Instead, missions are issued in stages, and each stage ranks us according to points.
The class ranked first will all advance to the next stage. The class ranked second must eliminate three students, the class ranked third must eliminate five students, and the class ranked fourth must eliminate eight students.
Only after an entire class is eliminated will the final mission be issued."
Feng Xi nodded. Oh, the Yan Clan really knew how to have fun.
"So that means you have four classes in total?"
Xin Mu nodded, "Mm. Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Yellow, four classes."
Feng Xi thought, there's no need to ask, the Yellow Class was definitely the most useless one.
Xin Mu continued, "This stage's mission is to mine Dream Glass Stones."
Seeing Feng Xi and the others look confused, Xin Mu had no choice but to explain, "Dream Glass Stones help us absorb nightmare qi. The testing spheres we used in the entrance assessment were polished from extra-large Dream Glass Stones.
But under normal circumstances, Dream Glass Stones are very small, only about the size of a fingernail.
They are all buried underground and mixed into the soil, they cannot be distinguished with the naked eye alone. You must use divine sense to perceive them before you can find them."
Feng Xi found this very novel and immediately became eager to try, "Then do we start digging now?!"
Xin Mu shook his head, "The Dream Glass Stone mine is over a hundred kilometers from here. A thicket of shrubs lies between here and there, and there are many Foundation Establishment Stage Jiji Beasts inside.
If we force our way through, there will probably be casualties, so we are currently studying the countermeasures."
Feng Xi froze, "You mean people can die during the exam? Actually die?"
Xin Mu looked at her in confusion, "Yes, isn't that very normal? If it were fake, who would fight with all their strength?"
Feng Xi fell silent.
Not only did she fall silent, Elder Hai and the other three outside the Image Transmission Stone also fell silent.
The humans' assessments always had a safety net. In other words, lives wouldn't really be lost.
It seemed that the humans still protected sect disciples a little too much.
Dean Dugu guessed what Elder Hai and the others were thinking and said, "What our Tianxu Academy cultivates are warriors, not cowards who worry about every little thing.
Only by experiencing life and death can they truly grow.
You humans' cultivation methods are too soft-hearted!
There's no need for me to say much. In a while, you will see the difference between our two races."
He felt like he had regained the upperhand, and his mood became quite good. He had people bring Elder Hai and the others spiritual tea and spiritual fruits.
At this moment, inside the assessment grounds, Xin Mu was introducing the situation of the Jiji Beasts.
Jiji Beasts, as the name suggested, made ji ji, ji ji sounds.
Although they weren't large, they were extremely fierce.
Not only could they spit venom, they could also use the sharp spines on their bodies to attack enemies. With the slightest carelessness, one would be stabbed into a sieve.
Xin Mu said, "For the time being, we haven't thought of any good countermeasures. If nothing else works, we can only force our way through. Even if there are casualties, there's nothing we can do about it.
Because if we delay too long, we will definitely rank last in the first stage."
Feng Xi blinked, "Are these Jiji Beasts all real Jiji Beasts? Not formation beasts or anything like that?"
Xin Mu was speechless, "Of course they're real! Time is tight. Let's hurry over!
Also, although we've teamed up, you're responsible for your own safety. We don't have the energy to look after you."
Feng Xi nodded, "Mm. We'll each play by ourselves."
Xin Mu: ...Play?
These human personal disciples really were mud that couldn't be helped onto a wall!
Half an hour later, they arrived near the thicket.
Just as Xin Mu was preparing to force their way through, Feng Xi took out a gourd from her storage ring, poured out a large handful of pills, and threw them toward the shrubs.
Xin Mu was speechless, "What you threw are poison pills, right? Didn't I tell you? Jiji Beasts can spit venom. Poison pills are useless against them!
What's more, those are poison pills aimed at demon beasts. They may not necessarily work on Yan Beasts… right?"
The reason Xin Mu said this was because he heard several indescribable sounds.
Immediately afterward came wave after wave of ji ji ji ji ji…
A large stretch of shrubs was flattened.
Xin Mu: "..."
The Yellow Class students: "..."
Dean Dugu and the others outside the Image Transmission Stone: "..."
Elder Hai and the other three looked at one another and silently raised their heads to look at the ceiling.
The Yan Clan's buildings were truly exquisitely constructed!
Look at how beautiful these patterns were!
