Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

Chapter 309 Killing Luo Xu with One Move
As more and more people from Yunwu Commandery passed the second level of "Martial Tower Challenge", Prince Huo Xing of Sifang Commandery's expression became increasingly grim.
After all, he and Zhao Shuang had a bet that whoever lost would become the other's dog.

The number of people from Sifang Commandery who passed the first level alone is not as high as that from Yunwu Commandery, and not a single one has passed yet.

This is completely doomed to failure. The most important thing is that as one side gains strength while the other loses strength, Yunwu County will inevitably surpass Sifang County.

At that time, it will be troublesome.

However, it is not unsolvable.

"Zhang Ji, if you dare to allow your Yunwu Commandery warriors to pass the Martial Tower again, don't blame me for sending a message to my father. I will send an army to attack Yunwu Commandery immediately and have it removed from the list of the Thirty-Six Commanderies."

Prince Huo Xing of Sifang Commandery threatened viciously.

"Hmph!" Although it was a telepathic message, how could it be hidden from the nine silver-robed elders of the Wu City Academy? The Dean of the West Courtyard snorted coldly, and Prince Huo Xing of Sifang Commandery turned pale in an instant.

"If Sifang Commandery dares to attack Yunwu Commandery within the next ten years, don't blame Wushi Academy for giving up Sifang Commandery's admission quota."

As soon as these words were spoken, Prince Huo Xing of Sifang Commandery realized that he had shot himself in the foot. His face turned pale and blue, and the consequences were unimaginable.

"This Prince Huo Xing is such an idiot. He actually threatened the Eighth Prince of Yunwu Commandery in this way. How could the dean tolerate this?"

Duanmu Xingling laughed.

"Yes, he is indeed an idiot, but I don't know how many levels he can get through."

Huang Yanchen also nodded in agreement and said.

"He should be able to pass the test. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be the only one in Sifang Commandery who can pass the second level of the 'Martial Tower Challenge' test."

Duanmu Xingling guessed.

"This should be."

Huang Yanchen also agreed.

And while the two were talking, it was indeed the turn of Prince Huo Xing of Sifang Commandery.

Ten minutes later, the tower lights on the second floor of the Wu Tower lit up, which meant that Prince Huo Xing of the Sifang Commandery had reached the second floor of the Wu Tower.

"He reached the second floor in just ten minutes. His talent is truly astonishing. I heard he's also a beastmaster. With such talent, he should be able to clear the third level of the second floor of the Martial Tower."

A good-looking female student from the outer palace in the West Courtyard said with her beautiful eyes shining.

"Why, Huo Xiuxiu, do you want to become a prince's consort?"

Another female student next to her teased.

Female student Huo Xiuxiu snorted softly and said, "Of course. After all, Prince Huo Xing is not only a prince, but also extremely talented. Who wouldn't want to marry him?"

"Really? I heard he made a bet with the Eighth Prince of Yunwu Commandery, betting on which country would have more students entering the academy. Apparently, the Eighth Prince of Yunwu Commandery won. And if he loses, Prince Huo Xing will become his dog. Haha! Could it be that you want to be a bitch?"

A female student who was an enemy of Huo Xiuxiu mocked her, causing Huo Xiuxiu to look extremely embarrassed and snort coldly.

"Hmph, that eighth prince of Yunwu Commandery, who knows if he's a spy sent by the black market? Elder Situ has already sent people to investigate, and I believe we'll find out soon. If he's a spy sent by the black market, the entire Yunwu Commandery will be gone."

"Really? What if he isn't?"

……

Zhao Shuang was naturally aware of what other people were saying, so he paid more attention to her. Huo Xiuxiu was pretty and worth a try.

……

"Wow!"

Half an hour later, the tower lights on the third floor of the Wu Tower lit up.

This means that Prince Huo Xing has reached the third floor of the Martial Tower!
"Could it be that Prince Huo Xing will be the top freshman this time?"

"Impossible. His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince of Yunwu Commandery is even more powerful. The reason so many people from Yunwu Commandery passed the assessment is because of him. So, for him, passing the third round of the assessment and surpassing Prince Huo Xing is completely normal."

"That's not necessarily true. The warriors of Yunwu Commandery were able to pass the assessment simply by relying on the inscriptions and talismans. It's nothing special."

"Hehe, any one of these inscribed talismans is worth dozens of spirit crystals. It's really nothing special. Because you can't afford it. Haha."

"you!"

For a moment, many warriors outside the martial arts tower were talking about who was the first.

More than ten minutes passed before Prince Huo Xing walked out of the Wu Tower.

Then, Elder Situ, the guide from the Four Directions Commandery, stepped forward and asked, "Have you passed the first level of the third level?"

At this time, Prince Huo Xing deliberately glanced at Zhao Shuang and said with some pride.

"I passed the first level of the third floor, but unfortunately failed at the second level of the third floor."

"it is good!"

Elder Situ was overjoyed, as if everything was about to come to light.

Before he finished speaking, the atmosphere outside the Wu Tower began to boil over.

"I told you! Prince Huo Xing is definitely the top freshman. That Eighth Prince from Yunwu Commandery can't compare to him at all."

"Who said that? How can His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince of Yunwu Commandery be compared to Prince Huo Xing?"

Amidst the discussions among many martial arts students, the next batch of martial artists entered the martial arts tower.

Among this group of warriors, there are not only Zi Qian, the Lord of the Nine Counties Zhang Yuxi, Miss Lin Ningshan of the Lin family, but also Yao Qingtong, a proud daughter of heaven from Jingyue County.

Like other batches, ten people entered the Wu Tower at the same time.

In just three minutes, the first warrior failed to break through and retreated from the martial arts tower.

Ten minutes later, three more people retreated from the Wu Tower.

Not much, at the same time, the lights on the second floor of the Wu Tower lit up.

Seeing this, the nine elders outside the Wu Tower all looked satisfied.

One of the elders couldn't help but exclaim in admiration: "This group of warriors is truly amazing. To think that so many of them have entered the second level."

"Yao Qingtong from Jingyue Commandery unlocked the sixth-grade Flying Snow Divine Martial Seal at the age of four. Clearing the third level of the second level isn't a difficult task for him."

Similarly, Elder Xie was also full of confidence in Zi Qian, the Ninth County Lord Zhang Yuxi, and Miss Lin Ningshan of the Lin family. Given their relationship with Zhao Shuang, it would be easy for them to pass the third level of the second layer.

Just like that, more than half an hour passed before the lights on the third floor of the Wu Tower lit up.

At this time, in addition to Yao Qingtong from Jingyue County, the people in the Wu Tower also included Ziqian, Zhang Yuxi, the Lord of the Ninth County, and Miss Lin, four proud daughters of heaven.

"These four should be Yao Qingtong from Jingyue Commandery, Ziqian from Yunwu Commandery, the Ninth Commandery Lord Zhang Yuxi, and Miss Lin Ningshan from the Lin family. How come the West Courtyard has four extremely talented female prodigies this year?"

For a moment, the nine academy elders outside the Martial Tower looked very strange.

You know, this West Courtyard has been dominated by yin and weak by yang for nearly a hundred years.

Here come four more proud girls, and they are planning to kill the male students in the West Courtyard!
"How about letting two of the four of them join other colleges?"

One of the silver-robed elders suggested with ill intentions.

"wishful thinking."

The dean of the West Courtyard was furious.

Not long after, Yao Qingtong from Jingyue County walked out of the Wu Tower.

One of the silver-robed elders came forward to inquire about the results.

Yao Qingtong said: "I passed the first level of the third floor, but failed at the second level."

At this moment, the Ninth County Lord Zhang Yuxi, Miss Lin Ningshan of the Lin family, and Ziqian did not come out.

This means that they might be able to pass the second level of the third floor.

And the facts proved to be just as it was. Not long after, Zi Qian came out with Miss Lin Ningshan from the Lin family and Zhang Yuxi, the Lord of the Ninth County.

Nine silver-robed elders came forward to inquire about the results.
"I passed the second level, but failed at the third level." Zi Qian, the oldest, said, "Same to me." Zhang Yuxi, the head of the Ninth Commandery, nodded slightly.

"Me too." Miss Lin Ningshan of the Lin family also nodded.

The three women's words made the nine elders look at each other with red faces.

After all, it was incredible that three geniuses had passed the second level of the third layer in one go.

After all, even looking at the history of the West Courtyard, there were often times when a genius who could pass the first level of the third level would not appear for ten consecutive years.

In recent years, it has appeared frequently.

This is a sign of great prosperity!

"Okay, okay, you guys practice well, practice well. Hahahaha!"

Elder Xie of Yunwu Commandery laughed heartily.

With so many talented people here, his status in the West Courtyard and the resources he has access to will definitely improve significantly.

What's more, the most important thing is that the Zhao Shuang brothers have not yet entered the Martial Tower.

Elder Xie was certain that the brothers Zhao Shuang and Zhang Ruoji's performance must be better than Zi Qian, the Lord of the Nine Counties Zhang Yuxi, and Miss Lin Ningshan of the Lin family.

"Miss Zi, Ninth Commandery Princess, and Miss Lin, you are truly amazing! You have actually made it past the second level of the third level. You will definitely be given special training."

I originally planned to fight for the top ten, but now it seems like pure wishful thinking." Liu Chengfeng said with a wry smile.

Just as he was complaining, Elder Situ's face darkened and he announced the next list.

"The list of players for the next round of the Martial Tower: Zhang Ji, Liu Chengfeng, Zhang Ruochen, Xie Zhaowu..."

Zhao Shuang, Zhang Ruoji, Liu Chengfeng and ten other young warriors entered the Martial Tower.

As you enter the gate of Wuta, ten small doors come into view.

Above these ten small doors, three ancient characters are engraved - The First Level.

Zhao Shuang chose the corresponding small door.

Zhang Ruoji and other warriors also chose a small door and walked in.

As soon as Zhao Shuang entered the small door, he came to an enclosed martial arts training ground surrounded by iron walls on all sides.

This enclosed training ground was twenty meters long, twenty meters wide, and thirty meters high. Its four iron walls had sixteen recesses, each housing sixteen bronze lamps, making it appear considerably wider.

Then, Zhao Shuang's gaze fell on the stone wall above.

Just as he remembered, a young warrior in his twenties emerged from the stone wall. He came to face him and said, "I am Luo Xu, representing the strongest power in the middle stage of the Xuanji Realm. If you can withstand three of my attacks, you will pass the first level."

"Yes, please."

Facing this legendary figure, Zhao Shuang showed all his respect.
At the same time, in the Wu Tower, in a secret room in the center, Huang Yanchen and Duanmu Xingling were sitting in it.

In front of them were ten spiritual mirrors floating, through which they could see the scenes of ten warriors passing through the levels.

The people who originally guarded the Wu Tower were two silver-robed elders from the Wu City Academy.

However, since they asked to see it, the two silver-robed elders naturally would not refuse.

Huang Yanchen exuded a cool and elegant aura. Her long, sapphire-blue hair cascaded down her face, making her skin appear exceptionally fair. She stared at the ten spiritual mirrors and spoke calmly.

"Zi Qian of Yunwu Commandery, Zhang Yuxi, the Ninth Commandery Lord, and Miss Lin Ningshan of the Lin family were able to pass the second level of the third layer mainly relying on the inscriptions and talismans given to them by Zhang Ji, the eighth prince of Yunwu Commandery. Now let's see how many levels His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince can pass."

"Not bad, not bad, then let's take a good look..."

Duanmu Xingling hadn't finished speaking.

Luo Xu was hit in the chest by Zhao Shuang's palm, and his entire spiritual body disappeared.

"He actually defeated Luo Xu with one move. How is that possible? Is he an Earth-level warrior? Impossible. If he were an Earth-level warrior, he wouldn't be able to hide it from the Martial Tower. Only the legendary Half-Saint could do that."

Huang Yanchen's jade-like face showed surprise.

"Yes, this is too powerful! Defeating Luo Xu with one move is incredible. I wonder who will be his opponent in the future. You know, Luo Xu is the most powerful warrior in the late Xuanji realm in the West Courtyard in the past 460 years."

Duanmu Xingling also felt incredible.

"Wait a minute, his younger brother is really amazing. He was able to fight Luo Xu for so many moves."

……

After Zhao Shuang defeated Luo Xu in the first level, he headed to the next level. It was still a closed martial arts training ground, very similar to the first level of the first level.

"Wow!"

Another warrior with a spiritual body walked out of the stone wall.

At the same time Luo Xu.

Luo Xu smiled and said, "We meet again!"

"Let's just use one more move!"

Seeing this, Zhao Shuang said in a calm tone.

"it is good."

Luo Xu was slightly stunned and smiled.

Then, another punch defeated Luo Xu!
"He defeated Luo Xu again. He's so amazing!"

Duanmu Xingling said in shock.

"It must be reported to the elders." Huang Yanchen said coldly.

"No, at most we can only tell the dean. Otherwise, he might be in danger."

Duanmu Xingling shook his head with a serious expression.

"what do you mean?"

Huang Yanchen seemed to understand what Duanmu Xingling said.

"There have been cases in the history of Wushi Academy where silver-robed elders have been spies in the black market or the Demonic Cult. Therefore, reporting this to the dean is the safest thing to do."

Duanmu Xingling nodded slightly and said,
"Well, you're right. Let's see how many levels he can get through!"

Huang Yanchen agreed.

"Another move, so powerful."

"Yes, very powerful, he defeated Luo Xu with just one move."

……

"What? Another move. This is really amazing."

"Should we stop him from continuing like this? After all, if he gets past the fourth level, he'll definitely overshadow us."

Duanmu Xingling said meaningfully.

"Besides, we are doing this for his own good. If he gets past the fourth level, he will definitely be targeted by the black market and the demonic cult."

"Yes, we are doing this for his own good." Huang Yanchen nodded in agreement.

"Hey! We're doing this for his own good. He should be grateful to us."

Duanmu Xingling chuckled.

"Yeah! You should thank us."

Huang Yanchen also nodded quickly.
