The promotion assessment to the Inner Sect was half a year ahead of schedule, and was also something like a small festival. The Outer Sect pupils practically all came to watch the assessment competition without any absences.
The Outer Sect pupils of each School could participate in the promotion competition for the Inner Sect. As long as they met the requirements, they would be selected into the Inner Sect. Those with outstanding results may even directly become an Inner Core Pupil.
The opportunity to soar high into the sky was in front of everyone, it just depended on whether one had the ability to grasp onto it or not.
Many pupils were excited to sign up to participate. After all, this was an opportunity. Maybe they could enter after they happened to performed outstandingly.
On the day of the Inner Sect promotion assessment competition, the Headmasters of each School personally brought the pupils who would participate in the assessment into the arena of the Sect.
The Sect’s arena was generally built for the pupils to practice cultivating martial skills. It was wide and could accommodate tens of thousands of Outer Sect Pupils to watch the assessment competition.
When Huo Ling Long brought Lou Mu Yan and the several people to the scene, people from the other courtyards had already arrived.
“Do you think the Talisman School of that tyrant female dragon would be bottom again this time?” The Headmaster of the Alchemist School whispered to the Headmaster of the Array School.
The Headmaster of the Array School had always wanted to dig Lou Mu Yan over, but Huo Ling Long kept slapping his face and kicking him out. He was holding his anger in, “Humph, when isn’t their Talisman School at the bottom?”
“I heard that the tyrant female dragon’s Talisman School has a Grade 5 Array Master. I wonder if they could save themselves a round.” The Smithing School’s Headmaster said with a little gloating as he looked at the Array School’s Headmaster.
He knew that this old thing had been thinking about Lou Mu Yan for a long time, but unfortunately, he was driven out by that tyrant female dragon.
The Headmaster of the Array School’s expression darkened and complained, “Lou Mu Yan being in the Talisman School is a waste. After the Inner Sect’s assessment finishes, if Lou Mu Yan really shows extraordinary talent in Arrays, I must go to the Sect Leader for fair judgement.”
“Hehe, the one who got Lou Mu Yan to the Talisman School was a pupil of your School.” The Alchemist School’s Headmaster said, dropping stones onto one who had fallen into a well.
When this was mentioned, the Array School’s Headmaster was furious. That pupil named Xue Lan’er dared to play such a trick. But he didn’t deal with her immediately. He would just wait to see what would happen when the two faced each other in this Inner Sect assessment.
Xue Lan’er’s Array talent was indeed quite good. She was already a Grade 3 Array Master at a very young age, and she was also a key target for training in the Outer Sect.
But if Lou Mu Yan was confirmed to be a Grade 5 Array Master, she would surely bear the wrath of the Array School’s Headmaster for scheming against Lou Mu Yan before.
“You’ll know if she’s a mule or a horse after taking it out for a walk. We’ll find out during the assessment. Maybe you’ll also want to go to the tyrant female dragon to dig her corner.” The Array School’s Headmaster glanced at the Alchemy School’s Headmaster.
He also heard that Lou Mu Yan could refine Grade 3 pills. This old fellow was watching his joke right now, but he would definitely cry in the future.
Of course, the premise was that Lou Mu Yan was as devilishly talented as rumoured.
Huo Ling Long arranged the seats of Lou Mu Yan and the others, then went straight to the Headmaster’s seats. She glanced at the other Headmasters indifferently, “You want to see my joke?”
“How’s that possible? How could we dare to watch your joke.” The Headmaster of the Alchemy School smiled awkwardly.
This tyrant female dragon wasn’t only arrogant and tyrannical, but also very powerful. They weren’t her opponents in a face-to-face fight. It truly was a waste of such a beautiful face.
Huo Ling Long snorted and was too lazy to care about them. She’d wait to see their jokes later on.
When the time arrived, the Sect Leader stood up and encouraged the pupils below, then announced the start of the competition for the Inner Pupil’s spots.
The opponents were determined by drawing lots, and any means could be used as long as the opponent’s life wasn’t in danger.
This was also the rules of the Six Major Sects’ Grand Competition, and the superiors of the Sects indirectly encouraged pupils to use more means.
Of course, no matter what means one used, one must understand limitations. Otherwise, if the opponent was fatally injured or crippled, then the Sect would deal with it according to the Sect rules.
Ling Fei Yang, Yan Jun, and Mo Ling all participated in the Inner Sect assessment, and they all performed very well with winning streaks.
The opponents Lou Mu Yan drew were all from other Schools and she basically defeated them all within three moves.
The examination competition was held for three days in total. The first two days weren’t very interesting, and only the third day was the crucial competition.
Lou Mu Yan entered the assessment competition on the third day without any suspense. This time, her opponents would become the Elite Pupils of the Outer Sects of each School.
Seeing Lou Mu Yan’s lazy and inattentive look from the very beginning of the competition, Zi Che Shi said with a smile: “It seems that Junior Sister doesn’t take the assessment competition seriously at all!”
Lou Mu Yan folded her arms and replied lightly: “Senior Brother is joking, I don’t dare not care so much.”
“Your turn now. I’m waiting for good news from Junior Sister.” He said meaningfully when he heard Lou Mu Yan’s name read below.
“Alright, then just you wait.” Lou Mu Yan stood up and flew down to the battle platform.
Zi Che Shi was a person who couldn’t be underestimated, and she believed that this man would amaze everyone today.
After she arrived on the platform, a burly-looking pupil also jumped onto the stage. He swept Lou Mu Yan with a bit of disdain in his eyes and said: “You’re the Lou Mu Yan who randomly picked up a hundred thousand contribution points?”
“None of your business.” Lou Mu Yan raised an eyebrow, showing absolutely no face to this Elite Pupil of the Smithing School.
“Truly don’t know good from bad, I’ll make sure you can’t be arrogant in a bit.” The burly man snorted.
The situation about Lou Mu Yan meeting Shen Mu Feng, who was severely injured and on the verge of death, and killed him by a sneak attack had long spread throughout the Sect. Many pupils were secretly jealous, envious, and hateful that she picked up the one hundred thousand contribution points so easily.
At the same time as envious of her luck, many arrogant genius Outer Sect Pupils also looked down on her, and they didn’t believe that she was a Grade 5 Array Master at all.
“If you want to battle, then battle, what’s the point of talking nonsense.” Lou Mu Yan said indifferently.
When the burly man saw that he was being despised by Lou Mu Yan, he was furious and immediately took out a Saint Treasure Magic Tool to attack her.
Lou Mu Yan didn’t even bother to draw her sword. She directly took out two Grade 4 Talismans and smashed them towards him.
As soon as the talismans landed on the burly man, a roaring fire dragon and an ice dragon emerged from the talismans and rushed towards the man fiercely.
In only one round, he was knocked off the battle platform with the power of the talismans and that taste of ice and fire was enough for him to endure for a long time.
…
Seeing Lou Mu Yan’s simple and crude actions, many of the pupils present twitched the corners of their lips. She won just like this? Could it be any simpler than this?
Huo Ling Long looked at the ugly expression of the Smithing School’s Headmaster and couldn’t resist laughing and applauding.
Lou Mu Yan was too much to her taste. Was there anything more interesting than using talismans to defeat the geniuses of the other Schools?
The next rounds were as Huo Ling Long expected. The geniuses from each School took turns to go into battle, and no matter whether they acted or didn’t act, they were all smashed down the stage by Lou Mu Yan’s talismans.
Her actions also successfully attracted the attention of the Sect Leader and Headmasters.
The faces of the remaining pupils who hadn’t yet competed were also very strange.
The pupils present were all envious, jealous, and hateful again. Didn’t this woman feel any heartache after smashing so many high-level talismans?
Even if she didn’t care, they all felt their flesh hurt—that was all money…
“Huo Ling Long, what Lou Mu Yan smashed out were all Grade 4 Talismans, you couldn’t have given them to her right.” The Alchemy School’s Headmaster saw another one of his School’s geniuses smashed down the battle platform by a Grade 4 Talisman of Lou Mu Yan’s and couldn’t help saying as he looked at Huo Ling Long
