In front of Yun Shu, a man looked around and then whispered something to his companion.

Yun Shu narrowed her eyes. Even though she couldn't hear anything, she could guess roughly.

The college offers places to the first fifty, which is fifty people.

Including Liu Rufeng, there are a total of eighty-six people taking the assessment.

Liu Rufeng himself was qualified for admission, so there were still eighty-five people competing for the spot.

That is to say, only thirty-five people will be eliminated.

The word 'elimination' is very interesting.

One is to be eliminated if you fail to reach the top of the tower among the top 50, and the other is to be directly expelled if you die in the assessment.

They ran for so long but still couldn't see even a shadow of the top of the tower, so many people started to have evil thoughts.

There are fifty places. What if the remaining thirty-five people all die?

Will the academy simply interrupt the assessment and allow these fifty people to pass directly?

No one is sure, but everyone has a hopeful thought in their hearts.

It’s just that the one who started it was more impulsive and stupid. He was the first to commit murder and even used his closest people as stepping stones.

In the academy meeting room, the elders gathered around a table again, and the images of the remaining seventy-eight people were projected on the screen.

Qi Xi was surprised and asked, "Why did the dean take out the inversion tower?"

Fuxiting said with a smile: "The things left by the first dean will never see the light of day again if they are not taken out."

Qi Xi was a little worried and said, "The children are young. Would it be too dangerous for them to reverse the tower?"

"Huh! Reversing the dangerous training path of the high tower is not dangerous anymore?"

Ma Dewen snorted coldly and said, "The path of cultivation itself is long and difficult. If you can't even bear this, you might as well die early and be reborn early! In the next life, you can be reborn as a pig and eat and wait for death!"

"That's what I say, but..."

"But what but? What the academy and the continent need is spiritual practice that can lead everyone to progress and strength, not a group of flowers raised in a greenhouse!"

"Alright, alright, we are all deans of branch schools, why are you making such a fuss here?"

Fuxiting said in a serious tone.

"Qixi, Devin is right. The second round of assessment has made them comfortable enough. It's time to let them see some blood."

"Although the tower reversal is dangerous, it is also a good experience."

The Reversal Tower is a relic of the first president of Yaosheng College and is a semi-artifact.

The inside and outside form a separate space, and there are many extremely ferocious fantasy beasts that love to eat human blood.

This was the spirit beast that Yun Shu and the others saw in the tower, devouring the fallen person.

"I have set the level of the phantom beasts in the tower. Although dangerous for most of them, they are not impossible to deal with."

Seeing that Qixi was still worried, Fuxiting explained.

"Besides, this is also a screening for them. The academy was originally established to train talents for the mainland, those with bad intentions, those with weak character, and those who are extremely selfish and cruel."

"Neither should be allowed into the academy."

Inside the tower, Yun Shu and everyone else had no idea what had happened in the conference room.

I don’t know what the secret of the tower I’m in is.

Just groping by feeling.

The steps at the back were still disappearing, and there was still no end in sight in front.

Everyone is going through both mental and physical challenges.

Should I use the people around me as stepping stones, or should I persevere to the end and reach the top of the tower?

As time passed, some people with lower cultivation levels in the crowd began to feel tired and fell to the end of the team.

Spiritual weapons can be used in the tower, and Yun Shu and the others have sufficient supplies of elixirs, so they will not be exhausted and fall behind.

Looking up, the top of the tower was still nowhere to be seen.

Just as Yun Shu was thinking about how to break the impasse, a cry of surprise suddenly sounded from behind her.

"Help!!!"

"Hold me!"

When Yun Shu turned around, she saw Mu Ge pulling up a gentle-looking girl from the disappearing stairs.

The girl looked very disheveled. Her cultivation level was relatively low among the group of candidates, and she was at the bottom of the list. So she was obviously unable to cope with the long-term intense consumption.

The girl smiled shyly and said, "Thank you."

"It's okay, let's go."

Time waits for no one. Mu Ge spoke quickly, stuffed the Soul-Accumulating Pill that Liu Rufeng had just given him into the girl's hand, turned around and followed Yun Shu's steps.

When Yun Shu saw this scene, her brows slightly frowned, but she didn't say much.

I hope nothing unexpected happens.

The girl took a look at the high-quality Soul-Enriching Pill in her hand and put it into her mouth without any hesitation.

While everyone was busy running for their lives, no one noticed the subtle change in the girl's eyes when she looked at Mu Ge's back.

After taking the Spirit-Replenishing Pill, the girl's spiritual power recovered rapidly. Her eyes lit up and she caught up with the main group, even running to Mu Ge's side.

The girl panted, showed a friendly and harmless smile, and said: "Hello, thank you for saving me just now. My name is Meng Xuan, from the Qinglong Empire. What's your name?"

"My name is Mu Ge, and I'm from Canglong Country." Mu Ge didn't want to talk much with someone he didn't know, but it's not polite to not reply.

"Canglong Nation?"

"One of the vassal states of the Qinglong Empire."

"Oh——" Meng Xuan nodded, a faint light flashed across his eyes, and he asked casually, "Mu Ge, did you buy the Soul Accumulation Pill just now?"

"How much have you prepared? I want to buy some."

Seeing that Meng Xuan’s cultivation was low, Mu Ge didn’t think much about it. He just thought that she wanted to gain more opportunities, so he said.

"I didn't prepare the Soul Accumulating Pill. It was given to me by my friend who is an alchemist. If you want it, you can discuss it with my friend."

Meng Xuan did not continue to ask about the Soul-Enhancing Pill, but instead asked, "Xiao Ge, are you on good terms with your alchemist friend?"

The overly friendly attitude made Mu Ge feel a little uncomfortable, so he said, "It's not that bad."

After saying that, Mu Ge accelerated and followed behind Yun Shu, moving away from Meng Xuan.

Everyone climbed up the winding stairs with all their might. Many of them noticed something was wrong, but they couldn't figure out what the mystery was.

It is easiest to have evil thoughts when you are in an extremely tired and stressful environment.

Just now, many people had erupted in fierce conflicts for various reasons. Several people were thrown down directly, turning into balls of blood mist blooming below.

There are now 75 people left on the field. If they want to advance, they need to eliminate 25 more people.

Although the companions of the person who was thrown down looked very sad, no one offered a helping hand.

Yun Shu saw it clearly.

One of the companions of the person who just died was a wood element. He was clearly at a distance that could have pulled his companion up, but the wood element cultivator chose to just stand by and watch.

It was not until his former companions turned into blood under his feet that he revealed a look of relief, then put on a mask of sadness and nonchalantly condemned the murderer's behavior.

The steps of the tower seem to have no end, and people's malice is spreading in an endless direction.
