The Xuantian Golden Pagoda has three floors.

On the second floor, wherever you can see, there is a thick spiritual mist.

Spiritual mist surged, and the light was dim.

Let this layer seem like a huge secret realm, full of mystery that cannot be peeped.

Qin Yi, Ye Tian, ​​Chu Fengchen and other nine college students, as well as the more than 200,000 students who entered the second floor later, all showed serious expressions.

They had a strong premonition that the assessment of the second level would be much more difficult than the first level.

At this moment, the thick voice on the first floor sounded again.

"Second pass, the assessment is your martial arts cultivation, magic, formation and other accomplishments. You need to find the most special existence in this secret realm: the devil tree!"

"If you pick the devil fruit on the devil tree, you will automatically get a full score of 10,000 points on the second floor, and you will be eligible to enter the third floor assessment! If you can't pick the devil fruit, you can only stay on this floor to deal with the secret realm. the monsters, and score points."

"The number of points will be automatically accumulated according to the level of the monster, so start now!"

As this voice fell, the surrounding spiritual mist seemed to boil under some profound energy, becoming more intense.

According to their intuition, all the students rushed forward in unison.

After flying about 300,000 miles, the front suddenly became blurred.

In the thick spiritual fog, brilliant lights shone.

"Maybe the devil tree is in front!"

The appearance of the vision lifted the spirits of all the students.

However, just when they were about to cross the splendid brilliance ahead.

One after another, the most tyrannical profound energy burst out suddenly, rushed out in endless brilliance, and slammed into them fiercely.

A wailing scream rang out.

I don’t know how many students were knocked away by these profound energy, and they couldn’t take a step forward at all.

"My God, this is a huge formation!"

"This formation is so tyrannical and mysterious that it can't even penetrate the peak realm of the gods like me!"

"Cultivation is not the only factor! Our Cangmu College is quite skilled in the study of formations. According to my judgment, at least the cultivation base of the Venerable Realm is required, plus the formation attainments of the proficient level to pass through!"

"Hey~ this is too demanding!"

"Sorry, I'm not qualified to enter the third floor!"

…

Faced with such an impenetrable formation, countless students showed despair at this moment.

The cultivation of the Venerable Realm, at this age, for most of them, it is difficult to reach the sky.

Because this requires the talent of Tianjiao level martial arts, the difficulty is too high.

The mastery-level formation attainments are even more difficult.

Cultivating formations is more difficult than pure martial arts.

It not only requires a strong array of talents, but also has a transcendent memory and comprehension ability.

Only then can we understand the billions of formations in this world, grasp the laws of their operation, and gain insight into their strength and weakness.

So when these two conditions are added together, the vast majority of students can only be amazed.

And in the helpless sighs of the students.

A few mysterious lights and shadows easily passed through the splendid brilliance, without being affected by profound strength, they headed deeper into the secret realm.

In front of a huge black tree covering the sky.

Nine lights and shadows fell in a row, revealing the bodies of nine people.

Ye Tian turned his head and glanced at Qin Yi who was standing not far away in a long blue dress. He took the lead and said:

"As expected, only nine of us were able to enter this formation and see the demon tree!"

Chu Fengchen clenched his fists and said;

"It seems that our nine college students are destined to be one point high this time!"

Ye Tian's eyes are full of confidence:

"I've been waiting for this day!"

After he finished speaking, except Qin Yi, Chu Fengchen and the other six college students also expressed that they would do their best to come out on top in the second round of assessment.

For a moment, a strong competitive atmosphere filled the front of the demon tree.

Qin Yi listened to Ye Tian and the others silently, and couldn't help shaking her head secretly.

She knew very well why the atmosphere had become so anxious.

First of all, because Ye Tian and the others are top students in their respective colleges, they want to win glory for their colleges.

Another important point is that these eight college students are all her suitors of Qin Yi.

They both regarded each other as rivals in love, so when they met, they were at each other's throats.

It's just that Qin Yi has no psyche to understand these people now, but shows a deep disappointment.

I can't see Xia Yang's figure until now, which means that Xia Yang has definitely failed, and he didn't even come to the assessment at all.

"It seems that his bet with me was just a farce after all!"

Qin Yi felt very frustrated because she failed to motivate Xia Yang to work hard.

huh~

At this time, the dark demon tree suddenly shone with golden light, illuminating everyone's eyes.

"Devil Fruit!"

Qin Yi retracted her thoughts, and Ye Tian and the others looked at the Devil Tree at the same time.

As long as you get a Devil Fruit, you can get full marks in the second round of assessment and enter the third round.

Thinking of this, they all mobilized their True Qi and rushed towards the Demon Tree.

And sensing that they were approaching, the originally silent Devil Tree suddenly moved.

Its slender and messy horned branches turned into arms that covered the sky, lashing at Jiu Dazi with unparalleled terrifying strength.

bang bang bang bang~

The nine people made moves at the same time and entangled with the horned branches of the devil tree.

For a while, the spiritual energy exploded, and the mysterious light flickered, turning the space of the demon tree into a tragic battlefield.

The nine students discovered that the cultivation of this demon tree is quite profound, and it is definitely not lower than the mid-level realm of Venerable.

Moreover, it has luxuriant foliage and quite a few horned branches, and when combined together, it is even more powerful in combat.

Fortunately, the nine students are all at the peak of the Venerable Realm, and apart from their cultivation, they all possess hundreds of thousands of mysterious techniques to protect their bodies, so they finally suppressed the attack of the Devil Tree.

Boom boom boom~

With a burst.

The nine students broke through the blockade of the devil tree at the same time, and quickly flew to the devil fruit in front of them, picking them off the tree.

"I picked it up!"

"I picked it up too!"

However, they found that everyone picked the Devil Fruit almost at the same time, and no one showed a greater advantage.

Grit your teeth.

Everyone looked at the tenth Devil Fruit on the Devil Tree.

"It seems that one more devil fruit is just for me to tell who is the most powerful!"

Thinking of this, the nine people ran their True Qi with all their strength once again, rushing towards the last Devil Fruit.

huh~

A cyan light and shadow burst out, rushing in front of everyone and landing on the tenth Devil Fruit.

Ok? ? ?

Ye Tian, ​​Chu Fengchen, and the others all looked cold, and there were still people coming to grab the Devil Fruit!

Blue light flashed.

Everyone saw that it was a young man in green clothes holding a devil fruit with a smile on his face.

"Xia Yang!"

Qin Yi was the first to cry.

Her voice trembled, looking very excited.

Because she didn't expect that Xia Yang appeared at the last moment.

This means that his performance in the Wen Dao assessment is quite excellent, and he has extraordinary formation attainments and cultivation, so that he can penetrate the huge formation outside the Devil Tree.

Xia Yang smiled at Qin Yi:

"Senior Sister Qin, I promised you that I will definitely fight for the top three, and then be with you, so I won't let you down!"

Qin Yi couldn't help being silent when she heard the words.

I really did not expect that Xia Yang had such strength!

only…

Since Xia Yang entered the Xuanyu Academy, his grades have always been very low. How did he suddenly rise?

Ye Tian and other eight college students showed strong vigilance and hatred after hearing the conversation between Xia Yang and Qin Yi.

They had long heard that there was a person named Xia Yang who was ranked last in the Xuanyu Academy for three consecutive assessments.

And this Xia Yang, for two consecutive years, stood at the foot of Yunfeng Mountain every day, waiting to meet Qin Yi.

Originally, in view of Xia Yang's achievements and reputation.

They didn't take him seriously, they only regarded him as a brainless and shameless suitor of Qin Yi.

Who would have thought that Xia Yang was so secretive.

Merely meeting each other for the first time stole the limelight from all of them.

"It turns out that the tenth fruit of the Devil Tree appeared because of your existence."

Ye Tian stepped forward with an invisible coercion and looked at Xia Yang sharply:

"However, even if you get the Devil Fruit and get full marks, I still advise you to give up your pursuit of Qin Yi!"

Xia Yang showed a slight contempt: "Why do you say this?"

Ye Tian raised two fingers:

"One, if you pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger and hide your true identity to approach Qin Yi, it's easy to make people feel that your motives are impure, and it may even be detrimental to Qin Yi!"

"Secondly, Qin Yi and we both fought against the devil tree and picked the devil fruit, but you took advantage of the opportunity of our attack, which obviously shows that you are not strong enough to be worthy of Qin Yi. For the team!"

After he finished speaking, Chu Fengchen and others greatly agreed.

Compared with each other's eight people, they rejected Xia Yang even more.

Because, no one likes a nameless person suddenly appearing on an equal footing with himself.

Facing Ye Tian and the others, Xia Yang smiled confidently.

"First, my identity will be told to Senior Sister Qin at the right time, so you don't need to worry."

"Second, the third round of assessment is about to start. I think you should focus on the assessment, so as not to be overwhelmed by me and feel inferior!"

Hearing the words, Qin Yi only glanced at Xia Yang silently.

She was waiting for Xia Yang's performance in the third round of assessment to uncover the mystery.

But Ye Tian, ​​Chu Fengchen, and the others had fighting spirit on their faces: "Okay, let's just wait and see!"
