Is there any hope for me, who proposed to the world-destroying empress at the very beginning?

"Someone else has come out!"

As time passed, more and more prodigies from various sects who had failed the assessment appeared outside the island. They came out at different times and had different information about the assessment. Based on their accounts, everyone looked at each other in astonishment and were dumbfounded when they saw the information.

The first place winner of the Star River Emperor Road assessment subdued a black dragon that appeared to be an ancient giant, making way for the human race's prodigy. He overpowered the Wang family's prodigy and the Primordial Royal Family, causing them to barely rank near the bottom. This alone shocked the people of all sects to the point of speechlessness, let alone what followed.

In the second round of assessment, Su Liang won three consecutive matches, including against Wang Tian and Han Bo.

Just hearing this oral account made everyone dizzy. At first, the elder of the Wang family did not believe it and disdainfully said that the prodigy who came out to give the oral account was lying and giving Su Liang face.

However, as time went on, more and more prodigies from the second assessment left the forbidden area. Regarding Su Liang's three consecutive victories, they all stated that he had defeated Wang Tian and Han Bo, which made everyone from various sects believe it.

The elder of the Wang family had a gloomy face; even now, he had no choice but to believe it.

The strongest person in this forbidden area was not the ancient freak Wang Tian, ​​but a modern-day Su Liang. With both old and new grudges settled, a strong killing intent surged in his heart.

Upon hearing all the good news from Su Liang, a faint smile appeared on Donghuang Yiren's pretty face, which broke the hearts of the group of soldiers behind her.

Although their time together was short, it was in the hands of this world-renowned military genius.

They were like invincible, proud soldiers of the gods, which made them admire Donghuang Yiren even more, and at the same time, they began to look up to her.

Donghuang Yiren possessed exceptional insight; she saw through the Wang family elder's ulterior motives at a glance, and said in a voice as cold as ice in hell:

"Your Wang family had better not think too much, or don't blame us for doing something irrational."

Threat, **the threat of exposing bare land!**

The elder of the Wang family blushed, and seeing the coldness in Donghuang Yiren's eyes and the powerful and imposing soldiers behind her, he had no choice but to suppress his anger and remain silent.

The Wang family disciples behind him also blushed. As a reclusive family, when had they ever been threatened like this?

When has this humiliation ever happened! But look at the elders at the very front—they are all silent.

They had no choice but to suppress their anger. Today's incident made them realize that even the Wang family behind them was not invincible in this world.

Inside the forbidden area, Su Liang opened the treasure list, and a long list unfolded before him, containing rewards several times greater than those from the last assessment.

"Marrow Cleansing Iron: Wearing accessories made from it year-round can alter one's own aptitude."

"Brahma Gu Flame: The uncle of the Western Regions' secret techniques, can manipulate Gu worms to release them from a distance."

"Illusion Fruit: It bears fruit only once every ten thousand years and can be used to transform demonic beasts into human form."

The dazzling list of rewards made Su Liang dizzy.

Su Liang was envious of these rewards and didn't want to miss any of them, but due to the rules of the forbidden area, he had no choice but to select three.

Just then, the Reincarnation Seal in his arms emitted an astonishing heat. This reaction was even more intense than the previous two. Su Liang took out the Reincarnation Seal and looked at the yin and yang fish on it, which were now merging. The black and white yin and yang were transforming into a cycle.

After the Yin and Yang fish merged, the surface of the Reincarnation Seal was completely renewed, and the new functions were transmitted to Su Liang's mind. Su Liang quickly learned about the functions of the new Reincarnation Seal in his hand and was overjoyed.

In this forbidden area, Su Liang displayed extraordinary skill, not only subduing numerous puppets on the Emperor's Road but also achieving three consecutive victories in the arena, successfully transforming the Reincarnation Seal and granting it new privileges.

The Reincarnation Seal itself is something closely related to the Ancient Emperor of Reincarnation.

The new permissions, simply put, mean that Su Liang now has control over the list of treasures.

Although he couldn't take all the treasures out at once, he could manipulate the system and tamper with other people's rewards.

In a good mood, Su Liang casually selected three items from the treasure vault. Ripples spread across the space, and a figure appeared in front of Su Liang.

Su Liang looked closely and saw that it was indeed Li Qingmo. However, Li Qingmo was disheveled and looked somewhat embarrassed. Like Su Liang, Li Qingmo's opponents seemed to have been deliberately arranged. Coincidentally, they were the three ancient royal family's long-forgotten prodigies.

Although he couldn't last more than a few moves against Su Liang, as one of the top geniuses of his era, he was superior to others of this time in terms of both background and strength.

If it weren't for awakening her past life memories and gaining a perspective far beyond others, allowing her to see through the flaws in her opponent's moves at a glance, Li Qingmo would probably have perished in the river.

Chapter 955 The Roulette of Life and Death

Looking at Li Qingmo, Su Liang's eyes showed worry, but then...

One by one, the people who passed the test emerged.

"Hehe, Su Liang, look at me, look at me! I handled all three matches so easily!"

Tang Xiaolu ran happily in front of Su Liang with a grin on her face.

"Good good."

Su Liang felt quite helpless about Tang Xiaolu, who was like a girl next door but inexplicably clingy to him.

While dealing with the situation, he secretly manipulated the Samsara Seal to adjust the rewards that the top ten players could obtain.

Xie Hong, Yu Qiu, and the other two looked rather grim. After exchanging a silent glance, they turned their gazes sharply towards Li Qingmo in the corner.

The three of them suffered consecutive crushing defeats at the hands of Li Qingmo, causing their morale to crumble. They were finally summoned back from their long-dormant state by the clan.

But instead of becoming powerful and influential, he was brutally beaten. First, he was defeated by his own clansman, Han Bo, then by Su Liang, and finally by a woman. How could they possibly talk about anything?

Hanbo, standing beside them, also looked grim. He glanced at Su Liang, who was surrounded by the crowd and looked like the moon among the stars, and fear flashed in his eyes. The brutal beating that Su Liang had given him, who was powerless to resist, had terrified him.

Xie Hong watched as Han Bo stepped forward and whispered a mocking remark:

"Heh, it seems that even Brother Hanbo from the Black Horned Bull Clan is no match for this Su Liang. He didn't join us in the fight back then, but now he's suffered a crushing defeat at his hands. What a disgrace."

Although they are of the same race, they are not on friendly terms. In this forbidden land of reincarnation, they are even considered competitors.

Hanbo's expression turned cold.

"If you say another word, I'll beat you to death in front of your entire clan once we're outside, and your clan won't dare to interfere, believe it or not!"

Xie Hong shrank back, gave an awkward smile, and remained silent.

Because he knew that this might be true. Although the Evil Moon Serpent Clan and the Black Horned Bull Clan were both ancient royal clans, the Evil Moon Serpent Clan was weaker than the Black Horned Bull Clan in terms of both foundation and clan strength.

Seeing that her side was on the verge of internal strife, Qingbi frowned and stepped forward, saying, "Is this the time for internal strife?"

Hanbo glanced at Qingbi and suppressed his anger. Although Qingbi was weaker than him, the Black Horned Bull Clan was weaker than the Azure Phoenix Clan, which made him have to be more considerate.

Qingbi continued, "Hanbo, we need to know the details of your battle with Su Liang. When I set off, my clan gave me a secret treasure that can slightly manipulate this forbidden area. Based on the difference in strength between you and Su Liang, I need to make some plans."

With a somber expression and a hint of fear in his eyes, Hanbo said, "It was a crushing defeat. My fight with Su Liang wasn't even a fight. I don't even know how much strength he used when he fought me. We were just physically exchanging blows."

Yuqiu exclaimed in surprise, "So you were completely outmatched by Su Liang in terms of physical strength?"

Yuqiu knew all too well how domineering the body of this Black Horned Bull was; he had single-handedly fought against all three of them in his clan, a feat he still could not forget.

Qingbi and Xie Hong both showed disbelief on their faces. Although Hanbo felt ashamed, he still confirmed it:

"Yes, the fight between Su Liang and me was one-sided. He didn't even use his full strength. Judging from your stance, did you also encounter Su Liang? Or Wang Tian?"

Hanbo naturally noticed the disheveled state of Qingbi and the other two.

He wondered if he had run into Wang Tian and Su Liang.

Qingbi and the others exchanged glances, and Qingbi said:

"Let me explain. We didn't encounter Su Liang and Wang Tian. Instead, we met a woman, the one who ranked second on the Emperor's Road. I'm afraid she's also an ancient freak from a hidden human sect."

Following Qingbi's gaze, Hanbo looked at Li Qingmo, who stood quietly in the corner, and frowned as he said:

“It seems we have underestimated the human race this time. Qingbi, if you have any trump cards or secret treasures left, then hurry up and use them, otherwise we may end up with nothing in the forbidden area this time.”

While the ancient royal family members were whispering among themselves, Su Liang had already secretly adjusted the rewards on their respective treasure lists. Li Qingmo's list was mostly for healing injuries, Tang Yuan's was for rare minerals, Luo Tian's was for body-refining treasures, and Tang Xiaolu's was mostly for magical artifacts.

Li Qingmo opened the list and looked at the rows of rare healing treasures.

"Qingzhi Pill: Made primarily from ten-thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, it possesses powerful vitality."

"Eight Treasures Flower: A rare flower famous for its eight extraordinary healing properties."

From the list, Li Qingmo keenly sensed the deep concern. Sensing this, she looked at Su Liang. Su Liang quickly turned his head and nonchalantly whistled at the sky. This clumsy disguise could not fool Li Qingmo. Underneath the veil, she smiled charmingly, her voice like a silver bell, melodious and unparalleled.

While the human race was happily selecting their favorite rare and precious materials, Wang Tian and the Primordial Royal Family looked at the sparse 'trash' on their list with gloomy faces.

Xie Hong asked, puzzled, "Does the Reincarnation Emperor have a problem with us? Is he deliberately trying to fool us with these century-old items? Otherwise, he wouldn't have arranged the assessment so deliberately."

Hanbo's face also showed surprise and doubt. He was also somewhat swayed by what Xie Hong said. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that their ancient royal family was so unlucky among so many people?

In the end, the ancient royal family gave up, because they couldn't possibly ask an 'ancient emperor who had been dead for countless years'. Helplessly, or rather, having no other choice, they took a piece of 'trash'.

After the selection was completed, the Emperor's voice rang out.

"Congratulations to all the inheritors for passing the first two trials. In the first two trials, you have proven your strength and perseverance."

But cultivation

The road is not always smooth. In addition to one's own strength, extraordinary luck is also indispensable. The third test is precisely a test of everyone's luck.

"A spinning wheel will appear before you shortly. It will display tasks of varying levels, from Heaven to Earth, Black to Yellow. Only those who complete all the tasks will be able to enter the final inheritance ground."

As soon as the words were spoken, a rotating wheel appeared in front of Su Liang and the others, displaying a dense array of tasks of different levels.

What's remarkable is that among the densely packed tasks on the wheel, the majority are Earthly Mystic tasks, with only a few Heavenly and Yellow tasks.

Su Liang stroked his chin and looked at the spinning wheel in front of him. He quickly grasped the mystery of the wheel. To be clear, this level was also a test of strength, since strength is also a kind of luck.

Unless you're incredibly lucky and get selected directly into the Yellow rank, or incredibly unlucky and get selected into the Heaven rank where there's almost certain death, most people will likely only get Earth Profound rank missions.

Entering the mission still relies on skill to clear the level; without solid skills, everything else is meaningless.

Chapter 956 You're courting death

Xie Hong asked somewhat nervously, "Is this really feasible?"

"This was given to me by the elders of the clan. Unless I encounter a really difficult situation, I am not allowed to use it."

Looking at the small phantom of a blue phoenix moving through her wrist, Qingbi was also a little nervous. According to the elders of the clan, this phantom of a blue phoenix was left behind by an ancient emperor with great supernatural powers. It could forcibly change the rules in the forbidden area, but using it too much would also consume the power of the phantom.

Yu Qiu said, "Now we need to ambush Su Liang. I'll go and observe. If Su Liang makes a move, I'll give him a hand signal, and you can follow my signal. By the way, I also can't quite figure out that veiled woman. Let's take her down with us when we make our move."

Qingbi and Xiehong nodded in agreement with Yuqiu's words.

After fighting with Li Qingmo, they realized that this woman was not simple, and the feeling of having one's whole body seen through was not pleasant.

Hanbo disagreed, believing that the opportunity should be given to Wang Tian. However, the Azure Phoenix Phantom was provided by Qingbi, and how she used it was her own business. Hanbo felt embarrassed to interfere.

In the shadows, Yuqiu's eagle-like eyes were fixed on Su Liang. After watching Su Liang turn the dial, he nervously made a hand gesture behind him.

Upon seeing Yuqiu's gesture, Qingbi activated the illusory image of the Azure Phoenix in her hand. Following a silent cry, the illusory image of the Azure Phoenix spread its wings and danced high in her hand.

Su Liang watched as the pointer on the roulette wheel slowly turned, predictably pointing to a simple yellow-level task. Although Su Liang didn't know if he was a chosen one, he had indeed overshadowed all the other chosen ones of the Great Qin Dynasty in this era. If the concept of destiny truly existed, then the level of destiny in his case would definitely not be low.

Just as the pointer was about to stop in front of the Yellow-level mission, it suddenly jumped, skipping the Yellow-level mission and turning to the next Heaven-level mission with no chance of survival. This made Su Liang narrow his eyes and look at the Primordial Royal Family beside him with a hint of emotion.

Seeing Su Liang looking over, Xie Hong and the others nervously retracted the Azure Phoenix phantom. Although Su Liang couldn't see clearly what tricks Qi had played, he was certain that it was indeed something they had done.

He sneered inwardly, "Not bad!"
