Chapter 280: Great Rewards (1)
In the hall, cultivator after cultivator woke up.
When these people saw that their cultivation had recovered after coming to the hall, many of them revealed the joy of having survived a calamity.
Then, they understood what was going on.
All of them were nervous.
Soon, they had gathered a thousand people.
Lu Ping smiled and said, “Those who give up their vitality will be eliminated.”
Everyone’s expression was gloomy.
After all, they had passed the first stage and then fell to the second stage. They were really unwilling to accept this!
“Everyone, follow me. I’ll take you all away,” Lin Yueyin said with a smile.
Suddenly, a boy rushed to Lu Ping’s side and said anxiously, “Master Lu, can you give me a chance? I’m willing to stay and be a handyman!”
Lu Ping was stunned.
A handyman?
In fact, Lu Ping originally didn’t plan to set up a handymen.
But now that he thought about it, the development of the sect actually couldn’t do without some handymen.
Moreover, these people could pass the Path of Truth, which showed that they weren’t completely without talent.
It was just that they failed in this second round.
“Being a handyman doesn’t have any benefits, nor does it have any decent cultivation techniques. It will take at least twenty years to become a disciple. You have to think carefully.” Lu Ping said.
“Then I’m willing,” the boy said seriously.
“Then stay.” Lu Ping made the decision.
He looked at everyone and smiled, “If you’re willing to stay and become a handyman, you can stay. If you’re not willing to stay, you can leave.”
At this moment, everyone fell into hesitation again.
Finally, after a short moment, most of them chose to leave.
After all, many of the people here were quite talented.
There was no need to stay in the Seven Phoenixes sect.
However, there were still some cultivators who weren’t very talented who chose to become handymen and stay.
In fact, what surprised Lu Ping was that the youth, who spoke first, actually had an a aptitude.
Lu Ping couldn’t understand at all why he wanted to stay.
But now wasn’t the time to ask.
The rest of the people also woke up one by one. After learning that they had advanced, they were all very excited.
Slowly, in the main hall, there were only two people who were still meditating.
Although it hadn’t been a day outside, in the environment, the two of them had already gone through an unknown amount of time.
There was no night, and they couldn’t rest.
Under the scorching sun, Chu Nanxi’s lips were dry and cracked. Her eyes were lifeless, but she was still walking.
Every step was weak and powerless.
In the other illusion, it was Liu Wu.
He was also holding on.
Liu Wu fell to the ground and looked at the sun in the sky.
He closed his eyes.
In this aspect, he was still inferior to Chu Nanxi.
When Liu Wu opened his eyes, he looked around and realized that only Chu Nanxi was left.
He was already outstanding enough.
Lu Ping really didn’t expect that a grade C middle-aged man would have such a temperament.
“Congratulations, you’ve advanced. Go and wait at the side,” Lin Yueyin said to Liu Wu.
Liu Wu hurriedly ran to the side.
He looked at Lu Ping with respect.
Although Lu Ping was young, Lu Ping’s current cultivation level and status were things that he looked up to.
Lu Ping looked at time.
He knew that the flow of time inside and outside was different. At this moment, every minute that Chu Nanxi held on for could mean a day in the illusion.
Everyone waited silently.
They saw that Chu Nanxi still showed no signs of waking up.
In the illusion, Chu Nanxi was as thin as a stick.
Her fair skin had turned dark red.
She was facing sleepiness, hunger, thirst, pain, and heat.
But she still didn’t give up.
She was still moving in one direction with difficulty.
In reality, Lu Ping’s expression was serious.
Chu Nanxi actually lasted an hour longer than the others.
Lu Ping, who had personally experienced the illusion, naturally knew how terrifying it was.
He originally wanted to see how long she could last.
Lu Ping decided to stop.
“System, dispel the illusion!”
As the sect master, Lu Ping naturally had the right to do so.
Chu Nanxi opened her eyes.
She stood up silently.
She didn’t say anything.
The pain was over.
She survived.
Under that endless torture, she survived.
Liu Wu and the others looked at the young girl with admiration.
Having just experienced the illusion, they also knew how terrifying it was.
What they didn’t know was that in this illusion, as long as one’s willpower was strong enough, they could drag their bodies around.
As for Chu Nanxi, in this aspect, she completely surpassed ordinary people.
If Lu Ping hadn’t stopped, she didn’t know how much longer she could have lasted!
To become a demon, she had experienced too many things.
Being alive was her greatest desire. Even in the illusion, she couldn’t accept her own death!
The remaining 1,000 people arrived at the next hall.
Lu Ping looked at everyone and smiled. “This is the last assessment. After this round ends, only 500 people can remain. The rest can only leave.”
Everyone fell into silence.
Having passed two tests, they were even more aware of the difficulty of this test of character.
“Master Lu, I want to ask, does the test of your sect only look at character, and not talent and cultivation?” Someone couldn’t help but ask.
Lu Ping smiled, “In our sect, talent is not important!”
Lu Ping said to himself confidently, “That’s right. With the support of the system, even if one’s talent is a little lacking, in the Seven Phoenixes sect, it is definitely much easier to stand out.”
