Chapter 68 - Heart Refining Illusion Array
Chapter 68: Heart Refining Illusion Array
“That’s great. Oh right, Xue’er, if our mercenary group wants to recruit people in the future, we can use this to test them,” Feng Moran suggested. You had to know that as a spiritualist, in addition to improving spiritual power cultivation, mental cultivation was also very important. But the cultivation speed of mental cultivation was very slow, and if the mind couldn’t keep up with the cultivation speed of spiritual power, it would go astray and suffer from qi deviation.
“Okay, that’s a good suggestion.” Leng Ruoxue nodded.
Leng Ruoxue was not surprised that Big Brother Feng was the first to come out. But what surprised her was that Lin Yuan was the second to come out, and then Feng Da also emerged.
Seeing her subordinates emerge one after another, Leng Ruoxue was very satisfied.?They didn’t let me down.?After her people came out from the room with the illusion array, Feng Aoran and Qiao Hua walked out almost at the same time.
“Ah! How were you so fast?” Feng Aoran was a little shocked. He thought he was already fast!
“Ruoxue, did you go easy on them?” Feng Aoran asked doubtfully.
“But I suppose it’s normal for them to be faster than me since their cultivation levels are higher than mine.” Feng Aoran thought about it and said, “I don’t know where Ruoxue found these people. All of them have higher cultivation than mine. I used to be the second strongest person in the academy, but now I don’t even know what rank I can be!”
“The illusion array inside has nothing to do with cultivation level. It tests your character,” Leng Ruoxue said.
“Oh? What about those who can’t come out from inside?” Feng Aoran asked curiously.
After hearing Feng Aoran’s words, Feng Da and the others all looked at Leng Ruoxue curiously.
“If you can’t come out, it can only mean that your character isn’t good, but there’s nothing life-threatening,” Leng Ruoxue said while looking at them.?Their future cultivation speed will also become very slow, she added in her heart.
“It’s been two hours. Why hasn’t anyone else come out yet?” Feng Da said anxiously.?Could it be that no one else can come out?
After waiting for almost an hour, someone finally emerged. It was a very young boy of only fifteen or sixteen years old. He was not very tall and had a very delicate appearance, especially his eyes that were as clear as water. His clothes were wrinkled, and there were still sweat stains on his face.
Leng Ruoxue looked at the young boy and searched for his identity in her memory. Before the test, she had asked Feng Da and the others to investigate the students who registered.
This boy’s name was Xiao Ting, and he came from a commoner family. Due to his talents, he became a student of the Heavenly Phoenix Academy. But the expensive tuition fees of the academy placed a heavy burden on his ordinary family, so this boy often went to the Misty Woods to hunt spirit beasts to exchange for gold coins to pay for his tuition.
“Senior Sister.” Xiao Ting walked to Leng Ruoxue and bowed respectfully.
“Yes.” Leng Ruoxue nodded. This Xiao Ting was tenacious and resolute, and he was the first one to emerge among all the students.
After Xiao Ting, more students emerged one after another.
Leng Ruoxue looked at the time. There was still half an hour to go, and 45 students were already out.
By the end of the test, a total of 48 students had completed it.
“Go home and have a good rest. Gather at the entrance of the academy tomorrow morning.” Leng Ruoxue looked at the 48 students in front of her.
“Yes,” the students said and left.
Leng Ruoxue removed the array and let out the students who didn’t pass the test.
“You can go back now.”
After hearing Leng Ruoxue’s words, the obviously mentally and physically exhausted students rushed out as if they had been granted amnesty.
“Miss, are we going to continue eliminating more from the forty-eight students?” Feng Da asked curiously.?Alas, those students who didn’t pass don’t know what precious opportunities they’ve lost.
“Why should we continue eliminating?” Leng Ruoxue asked Feng Da instead.
“Aren’t we only short twenty-eight people?” Feng Da said foolishly.
“There are no limits on the number of people in the Sacred Hall. Anyone who is qualified can enter.” Ye Chen patted Feng Da’s head lightly.
“Ah, no. I thought there could only be fifty people!” Realization dawned on Feng Da.
“Let’s go back and rest!”
Just as Leng Ruoxue and the others were about to leave, Elder Qiu pushed open the door and walked in.
“Fortunately, you’re still here!” Elder Qiu looked at everyone with an obviously awkward expression.
“What’s the matter, Elder Qiu?” Leng Ruoxue frowned slightly.
“Uh, there’s a little something.”
“Just say it. We’re all tired, and we have to go back early to rest!” Leng Ruoxue said indifferently.
“Uh, it’s like this. Since the Supreme Hall was just established, it has no place for training currently. After some research, the school decided to let them share the training room with you temporarily.” Elder Qiu wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.?Why is this little girl so imposing? No wonder the principal didn’t dare to tell her personally.
“How long?” Leng Ruoxue asked with a smile that was not a smile.
“Uh… this…” Elder Qiu didn’t know what to say. He wasn’t sure either!
“Since it’s the academy’s decision, how can I, a student, dare to have an opinion on it? But I have to warn you not to blame me for not reminding the academy that if the two halls don’t get along, it could result in fights.” Leng Ruoxue saw that Elder Qiu couldn’t answer and didn’t force him. After speaking, she turned around and walked out of the training room.
Ye Chen and the others followed closely behind. But they looked at Elder Qiu with strange and sympathetic eyes before leaving.
“Xue’er, don’t be angry. It’s the same for top families and major academies. They have too many things to consider, and sometimes they can’t help it themselves.” Feng Moran was afraid that Xue’er would be angry, so he quickly comforted her.
“I’m not angry!”?Did I look angry? Those people don’t deserve to make me angry. In fact, she felt that it was good for the two halls to train together. This way, she had a reason to teach those people not pleasing to the eye a lesson.
