  Everyone in the hall was drawn to the black tiger released by Lou Suifeng, and many people could recognize its origin. After hearing what Lü Yan said, the others also understood that the name of this tiger was Black Flame Tiger. It seems to be Lou Suifeng's spiritual beast.

  Lou didn't care about the gazes of others, stretched out his hand and took out several jade bottles from the storage bag. Some of the jade bottles contained medicinal powder for external application, while others were for internal use by the Black Flame Tiger.

  "Xiao Hei, I'm sorry. It was all my fault for being careless, which led to you getting hurt so badly." Lou Sui Feng's face showed a hint of heartache as he applied medicine to Hei Yan Hu while muttering to himself.

  That black flame tiger's throat emitted a few low growls, as if responding to Lou Suifeng's words.

  After a while, Lou applied the medicine to the spiritual beast with the wind, whispered a few words in Hei Yan Hu's ear, and then flashed with light, putting Hei Yan Hu back into the spiritual beast bag.

  "Everyone, seniors and fellow Taoists, I'm afraid I've made a scene. This spiritual beast has been with me since it was young, and just now when we were charging into battle, it helped me withstand the puppet's attack and got injured quite badly, so it's a bit out of sorts."

  Lou looked around with a hint of embarrassment and said, "Although the spiritual armor on my body is damaged, I still maintain my dignity, courtesy and etiquette."

  "The Tianhu City Lou's family's Yu Shou technique is indeed extraordinary, and it's even more rare to have a young talent like you. Go stand over there." Lü Yan Zhao said with a hint of emotion.

  This building is the second to break through with the wind, and its strength is not ordinary. Its behavior and demeanor are also those of a young master from a large family, and everyone present has a good impression of it.

  Lü Yanzhao himself also came from a large family and seeing other families with such talents, he naturally felt a little emotional.

  After bowing to Lü Yan Zhao and Zeng Xin, he saw Li Hui's figure, smiled slightly and walked over.

  After three more quarters of an hour had passed since the monk left the building, another monk came out.

  Next, almost every few minutes, someone broke through, and white light kept flashing in the transmission array.

  From the start of the trial to one and a half hours later, all the first batch of monks who participated in the trial had come out.

  This time, many of the monks who rushed through the pass were more or less disheveled, and quite a few came out with injuries.

  In the end, 68 people successfully passed the first batch of master's degree, and 32 people failed to exit.

  Five hours later, the assessment of the second pass was all over.

  Two hundred and seventy people, finally only one hundred and seventy-five people passed successfully, ninety-five people were eliminated.

  Li Hui and Lou Sui Feng still lead all participating masters in terms of results.

  Lyu Yanzhao was relatively satisfied with the results and stood up to announce, "The 175 people who passed the second test will undergo the final assessment three days later. Those who rank in the top 80 will become official members of the City Guard, and another 50 will have the qualifications to become reserve members."

  As many people were injured in the second round, the final assessment was held three days later to give them time to recover.

  ……

  Three days later, Tianji Formation entered the Great Hall of Arrays.

  "One hundred and seventy-five of you have passed the assessment of the first two stages, and being able to stand here means that your strength is indeed not weak; however, the third stage that follows will not be passed simply because of strong strength. Perhaps none of you will be able to pass successfully." Yu Cheng said with a stern face to the cultivators who participated in the final assessment.

  "So in the final assessment, what's being tested is not how quickly you can pass through, but rather how long you can withstand the barrage. The longer you can hold out in the barrage, the more it proves your strength."

  Yu Cheng paused for a moment, then added: "Of course, if any of you can pass the test, it's naturally better to do so as soon as possible. I won't say anything else, just remember that when you encounter an irresistible danger, quickly crush the jade symbol."

  At this time, the one hundred and seventy people who participated in the assessment were all solemn-faced. Most of them were injured during the second round and did not dare to underestimate the third round in the slightest.

  Then everyone was divided into two batches again for customs clearance and assessment.

  Li Hui and Lou Sufeng were again assigned to the first batch.

  ……

  In a grand hall with an area of only fifty zhang, Li Hui held the Purple Lightning Sword with a solemn expression, facing nine giant puppets that were entirely golden and over two zhang tall.

  The first pass is iron black, the second pass is silver white, and the third pass is gold.

  The strength of the puppet is: the first pass is the initial stage of building the foundation, the second pass is the middle stage of building the foundation, and the third pass is the later stage of building the foundation.

  Although there are more puppets in the first pass, their strength is undoubtedly stronger than one pass after another.

  Nine golden armored puppets, each holding a different weapon such as knives, swords, axes and spears in their hands, stood in nine different positions surrounding Li Hui.

  As soon as he stepped out of the transmission array, Li Hui found himself surrounded.

  The spiritual consciousness scanned around and found that this pass actually had no restrictions on the spiritual consciousness, and everything in the formation was within its perception.

  A fifty-zhang square and round great hall, with a circular teleportation array on each of the four sides of the great hall, and nothing else superfluous.

  This level looks the simplest, but Li Hui understands that this level is probably the most dangerous. The test is also direct strength, as long as you can break through the siege of the nine puppet puppets in the late stage of building the foundation, any transmission array can be exited.

  "Hoo-hoo! Whoosh-whoosh!"

  Li Hui had just stood firm and was about to investigate the hall when nine puppets suddenly launched an attack, with nine different weapons coming from all directions.

  "Come on!" Li Hui's face was solemn, the purple electric sword in his hand shone brightly, and he charged towards a puppet wielding a giant axe that was heading straight for him.

  "Boom!"

  A two-zhang-long giant axe swept across the sky, directly smashing onto Li Hui's Purple Electric Sword. Immediately afterwards, Li Hui himself "whooshed" and flew backwards.

  The other eight puppets naturally wouldn't wait any longer, and various knives and swords all flew towards Li Hui's body in mid-air.

  Li Hui only felt a numbness in his arm, almost unable to hold the sword, and heard the sound of the broken weapon. He quickly twisted his body, regained control over it, and then made several flashes in the air, with the Purple Electric Sword stabbing out repeatedly, barely blocking all nine puppets' attacks before landing back on the ground.

  "A hard collision, these puppets are not even opponents, can only rely on agility to dodge and find gaps to rush out, as long as they step on the transmission array, it's a victory!" Li Hui's mind turned rapidly, making a judgment in an instant.

  These nine puppets are indestructible bodies for him, and their strength is unparalleled. With his cultivation, he cannot move them at all!

  "Whoosh!"

  Li Hui held the Purple Electric Sword and transformed into a purple light that drilled into the gap between two puppets.

  "Ah!"

  These two-zhang-tall golden puppets were exceptionally agile, and in a flash, the two puppets had blocked the gap between them, swinging their weapons at Li Hui.

  "Hiss!"

  A burst of weapon-piercing sound, and the other puppets' spiritual instruments flew out of their hands, intersecting to attack Li Hui.

  "Sword Shadow Split Light!"

  "Hiss, hiss, hiss!" Li Hui's Purple Lightning Sword instantly transformed into dozens of sword lights, blocking all the attacks from these puppets. His body moved swiftly and agilely, constantly attacking these puppets.

  "Pffft! Pffft! Pffft!"

  A series of dull thuds came, these puppets were struck by swords one after another, but their bodies didn't stop for a moment, various weapons still attacked like a storm.

  Li Hui's figure was still moving quickly, with sword energy constantly emerging from the Purple Electric Sword, but it couldn't hurt these puppets in the slightest. His face gradually became more and more solemn.

  "Kill!"

  Li Hui's body suddenly emitted a faint golden light, and his bones made a crackling sound as the power of the Golden Body was fully activated. The long sword in his hand attacked the puppet with a fierce storm.

  These puppets were attacked in places where a burst of golden light flashed, but they still had no damage at all, and their bodies were knocked back several steps.

  "It's effective!" Li Hui's face showed a few shades of joy, his body didn't stop, continuing to attack frantically.

  ……

  The Tianji formation entered the main hall of the array.

  Two quarters of an hour after the start of the challenge, people kept being sent back, apparently having failed the challenge.

  At this point, twenty people have already been transported back.

  ……

  An hour later, the Tianji formation emerged from the grand hall.

  Lü Yanzhao's face was stern as he stared intently at the ten transmission arrays, suddenly speaking up: "Zeng Xin, how many people are still inside the arrays at this moment?"

  "Reporting back to General, at this time there are only twenty-five people still holding on."

  Lü Yanzhao nodded, his expression unreadable.

  In the following time, the white light representing failure in the transmission array flashed back to the original place one after another.

  Two quarters of an hour later, Lü Yanzhao asked again: "How many people have not come out yet?"

  "There's only two people left!"

  Lü Yanzhao's eyebrows slightly twitched, but he didn't say anything.

  Two more ticks passed and another teleportation array flashed with light, leaving only one person in the array.

  ……

  In the Tianji formation, Li Hui's body emitted a crimson-golden glow, and the purple electric sword in his hand transformed into multiple sword shadows. Threads of sword energy continuously emerged from the tip of the sword.

  Nine puppets trapped Li Hui in the middle, although occasionally being beaten back, but soon surrounded again, continuing to besiege.

  "If this continues, I'm afraid my spiritual energy will be depleted and my body won't be able to hold on much longer." Li Hui's forehead was covered in fine sweat, and the golden light emanating from his body also dimmed slightly.

  "Success or failure hangs in the balance with this one move. If it fails, I can only crush the jade token!" A resolute glint flashed across Li Hui's face.

  "Pffft!"

  Zi Dian Jian launched a sudden attack, and the nine puppets were temporarily repelled. However, Li Hui's figure no longer wandered around, standing firmly in place with a stable stance.

  The purple electric sword suddenly surged up to several feet long, its body seeming like a cluster of purple flames burning.

  "Starfall!"

  Li Hui let out a loud roar, the Purple Electric Sword emitted a dazzling light like a shooting star, with an unstoppable momentum, it cut through the air and struck the puppet that was approaching from the front once again.

  "Boom!"

  Like a meteorite impact, the gigantic body of the golden armor puppet, over 20 feet tall, crashed and flew upside down!

  Li Huidan's spiritual energy burst out of his dantian like a mighty river, and in an instant, his dantian was empty.

  But Li Hui's figure didn't stop for a moment, the golden light on his body surged greatly, and he flew forward like the wind!

  The Golden Puppet flew backward for dozens of feet before crashing heavily to the ground.

  Li Hui relied solely on his physical strength to rush past the original location of this puppet like the wind, stretching out his hand to grab the purple electric sword that had dimmed its light, and he rushed towards the nearest transmission array without looking back.

  "Heeheehee!"

  The sound of spiritual tools breaking through the air kept coming from behind, and Li Hui's other hand tightly grasped the transmission jade symbol, ready to burst at any moment.

  "Whoosh!"

  Just as the fastest flying sword was only a few feet away from Li Hui, he finally stepped into the transmission array, and a white light rose up, Li Hui's figure disappeared.
