Chapter 220 The Holy Court has more expectations for us
The stairs from the third floor to the fourth floor can also temper the soul.

Moreover, the tempering effect is stronger than that of the first two steps.

After a defensive battle on the third floor, all the talismans on everyone in the Imperial Academy disappeared.

Many people couldn't bear the tempering of their souls, and one by one they turned into blue smoke and were eliminated.

"To be able to come here and have our souls condensed so much is a huge opportunity for us."

Before leaving, everyone thanked Ye Ranyin and blessed Ye Ranyin: "I hope that Miss Ranyin and the two young masters can successfully pass the examination."

"Well, when you go back, you should also practice well."

After those people left, there were seven people left behind, besides brothers Ye Yixuan and Ye Yihan.

There are only ten people left in their Imperial College, which is not too few.

There are seven sword cultivators left in the Sword Dynasty.

There are only three beast masters left in the Hundred Beasts Dynasty.

Just the stairs from the third to the fourth floor eliminated a large number of people.

The number of disciples participating in the assessment has decreased visibly.

Looking around, there were only about a hundred people who finally walked up.

Moreover, everyone also discovered that after they climbed to the fourth floor, there was a diamond-shaped pattern mark between their eyebrows.

That mark contains a powerful force, which is similar to the force on the ladder. When it exists between their eyebrows, it can continuously refine their mental power.

At the same time that the mark appeared, they were all in a trance and heard a voice appear in their minds.

The voice told them that they had passed the assessment and could report to the Holy Academy with the mark between their eyebrows.

"The assessment is over?"

Everyone standing on the fourth floor looked at each other in surprise.

"should be?"

Someone said uncertainly.

The fourth floor of the tower is very simple, with only one staircase leading upward.

However, at the entrance below the stairs, there was a man in armor, his whole body wrapped in armor, whose appearance could not be seen clearly, sitting there on his knees, guarding the entrance of the stairs like a gatekeeper.

"If the assessment is over, why didn't the secret realm teleport us out? Moreover, there are stairs above this, and there are higher levels."

"I feel like there will be an assessment later."

"We have come here only to obtain the qualifications to enter the Holy Court."

"In any case, we have achieved our goal by obtaining qualifications. If you can pass the next level, you can go through it. If you can't, it won't be a big problem."

After getting the qualification to be admitted to the Holy Academy, the mentality of many geniuses became much calmer.

"Then, go to the fifth floor and have a look?"

Someone tried to step onto the stairs, but as soon as he stepped onto the steps, he disappeared.

Seeing this, everyone looked slightly solemn: "There should be another space in that staircase."

"The test leading to the fifth floor should be to defeat the ladder guardian, right?"

"I also think so."

"Go up and try. Anyway, even if you fail, you will not lose your qualification to go to the Holy Court."

Everyone was eager to try and walked up the stairs together.

Soon, the fourth floor of the tower became empty again.

Except for Ye Ranyin and his party, everyone else has already stepped onto the stairs.

"Cousin." "Miss Ye, next, are we?"

"Everyone is already qualified to go to the Holy Court." Ye Ranyin said with a smile, "Just be more casual next time."

She stretched and walked towards the stairs: "I have the same view as those before. I estimate that as long as we defeat the armored man, we can go to the fifth floor. Next, we will each challenge the armored man. That’s good.”

Everyone nodded.

"but."

Ye Ranyin added: "Sometimes, will is also a kind of power. As long as you don't want to give up, in this secret realm, even if your strength is inferior, it is still possible to create miracles."

She vaguely reminded everyone.

This is a dream, where will and mental strength are stronger than one's own strength.

"Also, if you can go to the fifth floor, try to go to the fifth floor."

"Why do you say that?" Shen Canglang asked curiously: "Have you discovered anything else?"

Ye Ranyin glanced at him: "In the past, the Holy Academy's admissions were simple and crude and only based on talent... But this time, there is a secret assessment."

"Moreover, each level of the assessment in this secret realm is not that simple. Obviously, what the Holy Court wants to assess may not only be our talents or abilities, but there may be others."

"If there is no purpose, why would they make this assessment so complicated? So I guess that the assessment we are participating in this time should be more than just the qualifications to enter the Holy Court. Maybe... the Holy Court, for us, Batch of people, maybe, have deeper expectations.”

Shen Canglang stared at Ye Ranyin dumbfounded.

"To be honest, before you pointed this out, I never thought about it at all, but after you pointed it out - I think what you said really makes sense. Xiao Yinyin, tell me, what's going on in your head? How come you look so good, know everything, and can think of everything?"

"..." Ye Ranyin was tired of hearing these words and wanted to ignore him.

Jian Shaoshang, Ye Yixuan and Ye Yiche all had a strong fighting spirit in their eyes after Ye Ranyin finished analyzing it.

"Cousin, what do you mean, if we continue to persevere, we may have a greater chance?"

"That's just my guess."

"We trust your judgment."

"Then we will go all out for the next assessment and try to persist a little longer."

"Ah."

After everyone cheered each other up, they started to take action and walked towards the stairs.

Ye Ranyin is the last one.

She was in no hurry to go through the assessment.

Before she went up the stairs, she carefully observed the armored man in front of the stairs.

The armored man's whole body was wrapped in armor, and his appearance could not be seen at all. Only the armor on his body and the spear in his hand were all emitting a cold light.

Ye Ranyin could also see some complicated patterns on the armor and spears.

Those lines...

She had never seen it before, but based on the knowledge inherited from the emperor's daughter, she could tell that it was a rune.

However, it is common to have runes carved on spiritual weapons, so there is nothing special about it.

Ye Ranyin watched for a while before stepping onto the stairs.

After stepping onto the stairs, the scene in front of her changed instantly.

What appeared in front of her was a white space, surrounded by nothingness. There seemed to be nothing. Only in front of her, there was a burly figure wearing armor standing there.

That figure was the armored man who had been guarding the entrance to the fourth floor of the stairs.

The armored man exuded a murderous aura. Almost as soon as Ye Ranyin entered this space, he started to attack Ye Ranyin without any courtesy. Holding the long gun in his hand, he slashed the gun at Ye Ranyin aggressively.
