Chapter 29: The Assessment Ends

  ?

  The Tianji formation emerged from the grand hall, and everyone's attention was focused on the ten transmission arrays.

  It has been a good hour and a half since the first batch of assessment masters entered the array, and only one person is still holding on.

  Everyone is guessing how long this monk can hold on.

  At this moment, one of the transmission arrays suddenly lit up with a white light that was different from the previous ones, and Li Hui's figure appeared in the array.

  The entire field was silent, with all the cultivators including Lü Yan Zhao having shocked expressions on their faces.

  If Li Hui's first two rounds were impressive enough to make people take notice, then successfully passing the third round would thoroughly stun everyone present.

  To know that in the entire seventh camp, there were less than thirty people who could successfully pass the third level! That is to say, Li Hui was at least ranked among the top thirty in the formal team members of the seventh camp.

  Li Hui walked down from the transmission array with a calm expression, and the cultivator who was guarding the transmission array hastily handed over the jade slip that recorded Li Hui's results to him, and then went to register at Zeng Xin's place.

  "It took one and a half hours, this strength, in the seventh camp is only under the tenth team leader." Unexpectedly, Zeng Xin said so when registering his score, looking at Li Hui.

  Li Hui was taken aback and didn't know what Zeng Xin meant, but Zeng Xin had already shifted his gaze away and started making records on the jade slip beside him.

  "Li Hui, come forward."

  Li Hui was just about to walk over and stand aside when he heard Lü Yanzhao's shout, turned his head to look back, and saw that Lü Yanzhao was smiling at him.

  A slight movement in his heart, but without any change in expression on his face, he walked forward and bowed with a fist: "Participating under the leadership of your excellency."

  Lyu Yan Zhao smiled slightly: "No need to be polite, I didn't expect that the token I gave you on a whim a year ago would actually uncover a talented individual." His words were full of praise.

  Li Hui's face didn't change, and he calmly said: "I was just lucky enough to pass."

  "Haha, no need to be humble. For this third level, I originally didn't think anyone could really pass it. Being able to hold on for a bit longer in the formation is already not bad. You being able to pass, naturally shows that you have something special about you." Lü Yan Zhao laughed loudly and said.

  Li Hui didn't say anything else, standing quietly in place, but his mind was thinking about another matter. The strength shown this time was too astonishing, and with his own qualifications and cultivation, if someone suspected him and asked questions, he would have to think of some excuses.

  "Alright, you wait aside for now. Once the second batch of people finishes their assessment, you can officially join the City Guard." Lü Yanxiang said with a smile.

  Li Hui felt relieved and walked over to stand at one side.

  Li Hui didn't know that in the land of Xia Zhou, countless large and small factions had gathered, and all sorts of rare treasures were emerging one after another. The number of outstanding young men who appeared was also unknown. The strength he showed was indeed admirable, but it would only make people think that he had practiced some superior techniques and had a few hidden tricks up his sleeve.

  Unless he grandly pulls out the Yuán Huàn Immortal Mansion in public and uses it, or takes out a few rare treasures or materials from it, generally, very few people would think that a Foundation Establishment cultivator's body would hide so many secrets.

  At this moment, the ten transmission arrays flashed one after another in different places, which was a signal that someone had entered the array at the other end. The second round of assessment has begun.

  Due to the special nature of the third round, the calculation of scores mainly became the responsibility of Yu Cheng from the entrance, and this time it was a victory for those who could support more time in the array.

  The record of this round is still done by Zeng Xin, but it seems more like a precautionary supplement. The city guard obviously doesn't think anyone can pass the level successfully.

  In fact, among the first batch of one hundred people who attempted to cross the border, only Li Hui succeeded.

  But with Li Hui's successful precedent, everyone's emotions were mobilized again, and they stared at the transmission array with great interest, hoping to see another successful breakthrough.

  This time, the second batch of seventy-five people went through the customs without any unexpected situations.

  More than an hour later, all 75 monks in the second batch of assessment failed to pass the test and withdrew from the array.

  In comparison, this result seems more in line with expectations.

  Lyu Yanzhao stood up and said calmly: "The assessment has ended, let's go to the front hall too."

  Lü Yanzhao and Zeng Xin, along with the other nine squad leaders, stepped onto the large transmission array in the hall. Li Hui, as the only one who had passed, also went up together.

  The Tianji formation entered the main hall of the array, and a white light flashed on the central transmission array. Lü Yanxiang and others walked out of the array together.

  "Participating in the unified leadership, sir!"

  At this time, all the masters who participated in the assessment were gathered in the main hall, looking towards Lü Yan Zhao and others, but their eyes were almost all focused on Li Hui.

  "It's actually him!"

  This was almost everyone's idea who participated in the assessment master, and no one thought that the only one who successfully passed the third level was Li Hui, who was just in the initial stage of building his foundation.

  Lü Yanzhao nodded towards Yu Cheng, but walked directly to a temporary seat that had been set up, with ten squad leaders standing on either side.

  Li Hui glanced at the participating masters and found that more than 200 pairs of eyes were staring at him, with different expressions on their faces, some in surprise, others clearly disbelieving.

  His heart moved slightly, and he happened to see Lou Sui Feng smiling and nodding at him. Li Hui smiled slightly and walked over to stand beside Lou Sui Feng.

  Yu Cheng, Zeng Xin, you two will review and report the results of this assessment together. Lü Yan Zhao said calmly.

  Two people took orders and calculated together in front of a table full of jade slips, and soon got the result.

  "I report to Your Excellency, the results of this assessment are as follows: first place Li Hui, second place Lou Suifeng..."

  The two hundred and seventy monks below all pricked up their ears to listen carefully to Yu Cheng's reading, knowing that the next result would affect whether they stayed or left.

  The top eighty results were quickly announced, and those who made the list couldn't help but show their joy, while those who didn't make it couldn't hide the disappointment on their faces.

  "Those who scored in the top 80 will become new members of the City Guard. If anyone has any objections, please speak up now." Yu Cheng announced after reading out the list of the top 80 names, looking down at the crowd below.

  At this time, Li Hui and Lou Suifeng both took a step forward simultaneously, but they also discovered each other's movements.

  "Brother Li, you first!" said Lou Sui Feng with a slight smile.

  Li Hui nodded and stood up: "Commander Lü, Captain Yu, I came to participate in the city defense team's assessment in order to obtain the qualification for joining the Divine Wind Camp. Therefore, I give up my qualification to stay in the city defense team. As long as I can participate in the Divine Wind Camp's assessment, it will be enough."

  Cheng furrowed his brow slightly and looked at Lü Yanzhao, but found that Lü's face was calm, as if he had expected it.

  "After passing the City Guard assessment, you can indeed directly sign up for the Divine Wind Camp assessment. However, the Divine Wind Camp's assessment is at least ten times more difficult than the City Guard's. If you fail to pass the Divine Wind Camp's assessment, you can still choose to stay in the City Guard. Are you certain you want to give up this qualification?" Lu Yanxiang asked calmly.

  Li Hui remained expressionless and calmly said: "I've already thought it through, if I fail the Shinpu Corps assessment, I'll also give up staying in the City Guard."

  Lü Yanzhao nodded: "Since you've made up your mind, I won't keep you here. You can leave first."

  Li Hui returned the courtesy with a fist and palm salute, then walked back to his original position and stood still.

  Suddenly, Lou stepped forward with the wind: "Commander Lü, Captain Yu, I also want to sign up for the Divine Wind Camp assessment and give up my qualifications to stay in the City Guard."

  Lü Yanzhao's face moved slightly, Li Hui and Lou Suifeng were the top two performers in this assessment, but both of them had to participate in the Shenfeng Camp assessment, giving up staying in the City Guard. It was clear that the City Guard was not challenging enough for these two people.

  But Lü Yanzhao didn't think it was unusual, the seventh battalion of the city guard changed personnel every year, and he didn't know how many talented people came and went, so he wouldn't pay attention to the comings and goings of two people.

  "Alright, since you've all made up your minds, I won't say anything more. If anyone else wants to participate in the Divine Wind Camp assessment, report now." Lyu Yan Zhao said calmly.

  Another monk stood up to sign up for the Divine Wind Camp assessment, but did not give up his qualifications to stay in the City Guard. If he couldn't get into the Divine Wind Camp, he could still stay in the City Guard.

  Yu Cheng then added two more places in the top 80, filling the vacancies left by Li Hui and Lou Sui Feng. The list of fifty reserve players was also announced.

  In the end, 132 monks stayed behind, while the others left separately.

  Among the remaining 132 monks, most were in the middle stage of foundation building, a few were in the later stage, and Li Hui was the only one in the initial stage of foundation building.
