Since the news of the trial came out, it has attracted the attention of countless people, both covertly and covertly.

Everyone wants to know which three wizard apprentices will stand out in the end and become the elites representing Dawn City in the competition.

And after countless people have been waiting for it, this day has finally arrived.

The trial location was arranged in the mountains more than fifty kilometers outside the city.

Early in the morning, the mountain was crowded with wizard apprentices who came to watch the battle.

The four major wizard academies, the City Guards, the Silver Light Legion, and even some mercenary groups also have wizard apprentices who came here specially.

In the past, wizard apprentices who were quite rare in the outer city were now everywhere in the mountains and plains. As far as the eye could see, they were filled with black heads, at least tens of thousands of them. It was a rare sight.

On the top of the mountain, a group of wizard apprentices gathered to participate in the trial.

Pei Ze looked around and saw that there were no less than five hundred people in the crowd.

You must know that the weakest ones who dare to sign up for the trial are all third-level wizard apprentices, and they are either academy elites who have practiced advanced meditation methods, or veteran apprentices who have accumulated many years of experience in the third-level wizard apprenticeship realm.

Anyone here would be considered an elite if they were anywhere else.

These more than five hundred people are enough to fight a medium-intensity war on the plane battlefield.

It is worth mentioning that the crowd seems to be crowded, but in fact it is clearly divided into four parts.

Teenagers and girls who looked very young gathered together. Both men and women wore gray robes and badges on their chests, indicating their identities as wizard academy students.

And these people were faintly divided into four small groups, representing the four wizarding academies of Shadow, Violet, Tower and Moonstone respectively.

Among them, the wizard apprentices from Tower Academy gathered around Pei Ze, vaguely headed by him, even the senior students.

This scene attracted the attention of many people.

Many scrutinizing eyes looked back and forth on his face and the first-year badge on his chest, either with doubts or curiosity.

On the right side of the college group, there is a group of wizard apprentices wearing gray robes with leather armor underneath and behaving very capable.

They belong to the city guard.

On the left side of the academy group, there is also a group of apprentices wearing gray robes and leather armor.

It's just that compared to the wizard apprentices who were born in the city guard, their auras are more powerful, and there is a sharp bloody murderous aura all over their bodies.

There is no doubt that these people are wizard apprentices from the Silver Light Legion.

Only Silver Light Sergeant, who has been fighting on the battlefield for many years, has such a fierce aura.

The people in the last group wore different clothes and stood in a disorderly and chaotic manner, giving people the feeling of a ragtag group.

They are wizard apprentices from various mercenary groups and adventuring parties.

Compared with the members of the other three groups, the spirit of these people is obviously weaker.

In fact, the strength of these people is indeed inferior to that of the other three groups.

The reason why they came to participate in the trial was just to try their luck.

What if I get lucky and pass the trial?

That’s a lot of money!

They did not hide their purpose at all, and talked about it loudly while laughing and scolding, which attracted the contempt and contempt of the other three groups.

Pei Ze secretly shook his head after hearing this.

These people didn't think about it carefully. The purpose of this trial held by the Dawn Council was to select the elites who would represent the duel between Dawn City and Red Lotus City.

When it comes to the distribution of income from a plane, the Dawn Council will definitely be cautious in this matter.

Even if someone really lacks strength and gets a spot in the competition purely by sheer luck, will the Dawn Council allow this person to participate in the competition?

The answer is obvious.

In all likelihood, the lucky person will withdraw from the competition due to accident, or even disappear directly from the world, and then the Dawn Council will choose another powerful wizard apprentice to take over.

This is almost predictable.

To be fair, this trial did.

But that's for the elite few.

They can compete fairly for three competition places on this stage prepared by the Dawn Council.

As for the others, they are just green leaves to accompany the flowers.

If someone cannot figure out his position and wants to be a flower, he will be uprooted.

It is a pity that few people can understand this in the face of the huge temptation of interests.

While Pei Ze was deep in thought, a group of people on the other side were secretly sizing him up.

That person is Pei Ze?

The speaker was a tall young man.

He has a pair of ice-blue eyes, his facial features are as tough as ice sculptures with a hint of coldness, and his body also exudes an icy temperament.

He was wearing a dark apprentice robe, and the badge on his chest was engraved with a long, winding and deep river.

The river of netherworld!

The emblem of Shadow Academy.

Around the young man, there were more than a dozen wizard apprentices gathered around him, surrounding him like stars over the moon.

As soon as the young man finished speaking, a young man with short brown-red hair and three horizontal black lines on his left cheek immediately said: It must be Pei Ze. Apart from him, there is no other first-year student in the Tower Academy who can make the senior students better. So obedient.

A black-haired young man wearing earrings next to him sneered: The guys at Tower Academy are getting more and more useless. A group of third-year students is actually headed by a first-year student. After Yin Xue was promoted to wizard, there will be no one left in the third grade. ?

You can't say that. The red-haired young man shook his head solemnly, I heard that this Pei Ze killed a binge drinker and a heretic overnight during the previous operation to suppress the Hand of Resentment. The legendary knight who colluded, if this is true, then his strength cannot be underestimated.”

The black-haired young man snorted and said disdainfully: Do you believe this kind of rumor?

How can a third-level wizard apprentice who has just been promoted be able to kill a legendary knight?

To say the least, even if he really killed two legendary knights, he must have used some special method, either a potion or some powerful consumable magic item!

As soon as this was said, several students from the Shadow Academy around him nodded in agreement.

They also didn't believe that a first-year student could defeat the legendary knight openly. After all, that was too unbelievable.

You must know that even Meng Wei, who is recognized as the leader of Shadow Academy, could not do this in his first grade.

The red-haired young man shrugged, looked at the blue-eyed young man who had been silent, and said, Mengwei, what do you think?

Meng Wei glanced in Pei Ze's direction and said calmly: I'm not interested.

Regardless of whether the rumors of Pei Ze killing the legendary knight were true or false, it was meaningless to him.

There were at least twenty or thirty people present at the wizard apprentice who had the ability to kill the legendary knight.

But among these people, only Sang Fan and Su Shouhai were opponents truly worthy of his attention.

As for others, there is nothing to fear.

At this time, Meng Wei's expression suddenly changed and he raised his head and looked forward.

coming.

Others also reacted and followed his gaze.

I saw three wizards in white robes appearing in the empty open space a hundred meters away.

Soon, other people also noticed the wizard's appearance.

The originally noisy mountaintop quickly became quiet.

Everyone was staring at the three wizards intently, looking either nervous and solemn, or looking forward to being excited.

Among the three wizards, the first one is tall and wears a silver mask on his face, covering the left half of his cheek. On the exposed right half of his cheek, there are no eyeballs in the eye sockets. Instead, there is a silver pocket watch dial.

The minute and hour hands inside are still moving slowly.

The masked wizard looked around, and a strange smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Too many people.

Before the confused wizard apprentices could figure out the meaning of this sentence, they saw the masked wizard suddenly open his mouth and let out a howl.

The sound was so sharp that it instantly resounded over the top of the mountain.

Pei Ze instantly felt as if a steel needle had pierced his eardrum into his brain. The pain made his eyesight go black, his feet were unsteady, he staggered back two steps, and almost fainted.

The Banshee's Wail!

Pei Ze immediately remembered a famous spell.

This spell is created to simulate the howl of a banshee. It can cause mental damage in the slightest and death in the worst. It is extremely powerful.

Plop! Plop!

There were muffled sounds of bodies falling to the ground one after another.

Amidst the terrifying howls, many wizard apprentices rolled their eyes and passed out on the spot without even humming.

In less than two seconds, more than half of the wizard apprentices fell to the ground.

After another two or three seconds, the extremely sharp howling finally stopped.

Pei Ze shook his head, finally calming down the dizziness in his head. He raised his head and looked around, and was shocked to find that there were less than a hundred wizard apprentices still standing at this time.

Carry these overestimating fellows away!

The masked wizard sneered and waved his hand.

Immediately, a group of sergeants walked quickly from the bottom of the mountain, picked up the unconscious wizard apprentices and took them away.

The wizard apprentices who were still standing looked at this scene in silence, with complicated expressions.

Obviously, the 'howling' just now was the first level of the trial, and the purpose was to screen out those participants who were not strong enough and wanted to fish in troubled waters.

And the effect is also very significant.

More than four-fifths of the participants were eliminated directly.

Especially the wizard apprentices from the mercenary group and the adventure group were all wiped out, leaving no one behind.

Those who can still stand on the top of the mountain at this time are basically the elite of the elite.

Pei Ze sighed secretly.

He guessed that the Dawn Council might take measures to screen out a group of people, but he did not expect that the screening would be so intense, eliminating more than four-fifths of the participants on the spot.

And it was done in such a straightforward way.

But that one just now shouldn't be the real Banshee's Howl. The power of the nine-ring spell is not that weak. Pei Ze thought thoughtfully.

If it were a real nine-ring spell, I'm afraid no wizard apprentice would still be alive.

What the masked wizard just cast should be a weakened version of the spell based on the Banshee's Wail.

Not long after, the unconscious wizard apprentices were taken away.

The top of the mountain suddenly became much more spacious.

The masked wizard glanced around, nodded with satisfaction, and with a wave of his hand, a two-meter-high light door appeared out of thin air in front of everyone.

This is the entrance to the maze.

The masked wizard spoke calmly.

There are three iridescent gems placed in the center of the maze. The apprentice who gets the iridescent gem and holds it until the end of the seventy-two-hour trial period can get a place in the competition.

During the trial, the use of potions, scrolls, external puppets and consumable magic items is prohibited.

After the trial starts, everyone will get a teleportation ring. The teleportation technique is attached to the ring. After being activated, you will instantly leave the maze and return here, but that also means you gave up the trial.

Now everyone enters the maze in order, and only one person enters at a time.

After explaining the rules of the trial, the masked wizard did not leave anyone time to react and announced the start of the trial on the spot.

Everyone looked at each other, but soon someone came out of the crowd and walked towards the light door.

Pei Ze also took steps and followed the team into the light gate.

Not long after, all the wizard apprentices disappeared behind the light door, and the top of the mountain became empty in an instant, with only three wizards left.

The masked wizard waved his hand, and the light gate instantly disintegrated into countless light particles. Under the influence of invisible pulling, all the light particles shot up into the sky like sharp arrows, suddenly exploded high in the sky, emitting pieces of dense halos, intertwined Forming a huge light curtain.

The apprentices who were waiting eagerly on the mountainside noticed the appearance of the light curtain immediately, and stretched their necks to look high into the sky, showing excitement.

It's finally starting!

It's finally started. I'm impatient to wait.

Don't know what the trial is like?

Look, there's a picture.

In the astonished eyes of everyone, separate scenes quickly appeared on the light curtain high in the sky.

A figure appears in the center of each frame.

It was a wizard apprentice taking part in the trial.

However, someone soon realized something was wrong.

Hey, why are there so many fewer people?

Indeed, I clearly saw four to five hundred people on the top of the mountain just now. Why are there less than a hundred people left now?

Where are the others?

Everyone was talking and looking confused.

At this moment, an apprentice suddenly exclaimed: Someone is coming down the mountain.

Everyone quickly turned around and saw a group of sergeants carrying people down from the top of the mountain and rushing down the mountain with flying strides.

It's those who took part in the trial!

What happened? Why are so many people unconscious?

A curious apprentice quickly stepped forward to stop the sergeant. After questioning, he quickly learned what happened on the top of the mountain.

As the news spread, the crowd suddenly burst into uproar.

More than 80% of the participants were eliminated before the trial officially started. What kind of operation was this?

For a time, everyone had a deeper understanding of the severity of the trial.

Fortunately, I didn't go to participate, otherwise I would be embarrassed and embarrassed now.

Gu Lin patted his chest with a happy expression on his face.

She had thought about joining in the fun before, just to train herself.

Now it seems that she is lucky enough not to have a fever and sign up to participate, otherwise she may be one of the people who will be carried down the mountain.

That's so embarrassing!

Speaking of which, where is Pei Ze?

Gu Lin was talking to himself while looking for Pei Ze's figure on the light screen.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a soft snort coming from beside him.

She turned around, rolled her eyes at Yin Guang, and said, Hey, don't be so stingy, okay? How long has it been since that incident? Why do you still dislike Pei Ze?
