The bear-man soldiers raised their spears in their hands and shouted vigorously, driving us to the east side of the Purple Bamboo Forest, where a second test should be waiting for us.
After walking for half an hour, the crowd finally stopped at the end of the bamboo forest.
I glanced ahead, and there was obviously a cliff in front of me, with gusts of wind at the bottom of the cliff, and a white mist in the middle to cut off the view, which had to be hundreds of meters high.
The bear-man soldiers behind him pointed their spears at us and motioned for us to jump off the cliff.
The students' eyes suddenly widened, everyone only has the demon spirit realm, and they have no wings to fly, jumping from here, where can they still use their lives?
No one wanted to die, so under the persecution of the bear soldiers, no one stepped forward, and in desperation, the leader of the bear soldiers yelled, "This is the second stage of the assessment, if you don't jump from here, it will be regarded as an automatic abstention." ” Hearing this, Namu hesitated to step forward, stretched out his head to probe down the cliff, and his neck shrank sharply in fright, and he stammered a little, "More......
Dorjee, this cliff is too high, you will definitely fall to your death if you jump down. ” I patted him on the shoulder and told him not to panic.
Jumping off this cliff is indeed a bit scary, but since this is an entrance examination, THAAD Academy is measured in its own right, and it will definitely not treat the lives of students as child's play, I estimate that there should be some Mingtang under this cliff.
After hearing this, Namu nodded suspiciously, and said no more, but the expression on his face was still a little struggling.
At this time, there was a tattered minotaur, suddenly strode to the edge of the cliff, and after standing still, he said angrily, "You are afraid, my old cow is not afraid, I will go first to see what is down there." ” With that, the minotaur howled, turned and jumped down.
Seeing him so simply, the people around him immediately rushed up, wanting to see the situation of the minotaur.
But after half a minute, there was still no sound from the bottom of the cliff except for the sound of the wind calling sign.
With the first, there is the second.
Before everyone could retreat, the cold black cat man who had performed well in the first level before also jumped down without saying a word, and there was no abnormal sound.
Seeing this, I was even more convinced of my thoughts, and I pulled Namu and the others to jump down the cliff.
Unexpectedly, Tana, who looked timid, did not have much fear on her face, as if she trusted me, but Namu was a little twisted.
But after a few seconds, he gritted his teeth and his gaze became firm again, "I can't let the village chief and them down, even if they die here, they can't disgrace Lushui Village." ” After saying that, he took the initiative to take a step forward and pulled me and Tana to jump down together.
The body was so weightless that the wind kept pouring into my mouth and nose, and it was difficult to breathe for a while.
In the midst of the raging winds, the eyes could not be opened, let alone the directions.
After about 100 meters of landing, the surrounding wind suddenly changed direction.
The gust of wind was much stronger than the previous one, and seemed to blow our bodies towards the rock face.
After a few seconds, the wind became quieter and quieter, and as soon as I felt my body light, I landed somewhere.
There seemed to be something hard behind me, pressing against my back.
I rubbed my sour nose and sat up to take in the surroundings.
We were lying at the mouth of a cave outside the cliff from which we had jumped.
There was a vast white space outside the cave, and I couldn't see the situation inside clearly.
As he was watching, Namu beside him suddenly exclaimed, "Hey, I'm still alive, Dorjee, we're really fine." ” The shout woke Tana, who was much calmer than Namu, just to see if she was hurt, and then asked me, "Brother Dorjee, what are we going to do next?"
Do you have to wait in this cave all the time?
” There is no need to die here, I guess the minotaur and the black cat man from earlier have also fallen into this hole.
At this time, they were nowhere to be seen, apparently leaving along the cave behind them.
The cave is long and narrow, with no end in sight and no one where it leads.
I called the two of them and walked inside.
As soon as I raised my foot, there was the sound of something falling behind me, and I didn't need to look back to know that someone must have jumped down again.
The area around the cave was very dry, and there was nothing but dirt scattered on the ground.
After walking along the cave for half an hour, I could no longer see the entrance to the cave when I came, but I still didn't feel oppressive in the cave, and it was clear that my previous thoughts were correct, and there must be another exit ahead.
After walking for half an hour, a glimmer of light suddenly came from a hundred meters ahead.
After following the light for a while, I finally came out of the cave.
It should be noon, and after staying in the dim cave for too long, I was suddenly exposed to the sun, and it was difficult for my eyes to adjust for a while.
After a moment of relaxation, I found myself standing in the square where we had started, and the minotaur and the black cat man who had jumped off the cliff one step earlier were sitting upright on the ground.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but look at the hole I came out of, and found that there was still a bamboo forest behind me, and there was no hole at all.
Dreamland?
No, the cliffs and caves before were extremely real, and even those who cultivated to the highest level could not be able to confuse the real with the false.
The only possibility is that something resembling a formation has been laid here, connecting the cave to the square.
Namu patted his head with surprise written on his face, and asked me, "Dorjee, I'm not dreaming, why did we come around in a circle and come back?"
” I shook my head and didn't tell Namu what I was thinking, the square was so empty that the slightest sound could be heard by the people on the high platform.

Naam's voice startled the minotaur sitting in the distance, he didn't seem to expect us to come back so soon, he paused and said as he walked, "Hehe, interesting, I heard that you kobolds are very timid, I didn't expect you to dare to jump off such a high cliff." ” The Minotaur has a simple temperament, and he doesn't have too many fancy intestines, and he speaks straightforwardly, and this sentence is also casual and has no irony.
Namu scratched his head and squeezed out a smile in response, "I was really hesitant at first. ” Seeing Naam's response, the minotaur leaned closer, patted his chest, and said, "My name is Sedar, I'm from Blackstone Village, what's your name?"
” After introducing us, Namu and Sedar started chatting word by word.
Perhaps seeing that Sedar did not dislike his identity, the more the two chatted, the more energetic they became, as if they had almost forgotten the purpose of coming here.
The voices of the two became louder and louder, but the black cat man on one side still looked grim and was not affected in the slightest.
While the two were chatting, many people had already returned, and when they counted carefully, there were only one hundred and fifty people left.
One hundred places at THAAD Academy, we're pretty close.
After about a stick of incense, no one came back.
On the other hand, on the east side of the bamboo forest, the bear-man soldiers opened the way and walked over with people who failed to jump off the cliff.
The men, all with their heads hung down and their faces depressed, did not stop as they passed us, but followed two or three bear-man soldiers towards the place where the cadets were resting.
After they left, the purple-robed elder glanced at the students in the square twice, then nodded with satisfaction and stood up.
Before he could speak, the surrounding students instantly fell silent.
The purple-robed elder stood with his hands in his hands, looked at everyone and said, "Congratulations on passing the second stage of the assessment.
Thanks to the trust of the city lord and the dean, this last pass was personally assessed by the old man. ” As soon as I heard that it was the last level, the square exploded instantly, and the students were very excited.
Speaking of this last level, it reminds me of the talent test that Otto had mentioned a few days ago when he told us about the division of the five schools of the Thad Academy.
According to him, the talent test is the final level of the assessment, and the sorting gate is also based on this.
Bloodline talent refers to the compatibility of blood and aura.
In terms of talent, the people present are far inferior to me.
However, although I am the reincarnation of the Demon Emperor, I don't know if the talent test of the demon clan can show effect on me.
Even if it worked, it was a bit of a struggle for me.
I'm only here to find a high-level beast pill to repair my injuries, and I have to be very cautious in everything I do before my strength recovers.
If you show your amazing talent, I am afraid that it will attract the attention of the city lord, and I will definitely find out my identity at that time.
In this way, I will be in great danger among the demon clans.
This bloodline talent is something that is innate, and even if I was a person who was a rusher, I couldn't hide my talent.
How to avoid being discovered, this matter still needs to be carefully pondered.
While thinking about it, the purple-robed elder stretched out his hands and pressed them down, signaling everyone to be quiet and continue to speak.
His next words confirmed my earlier suspicion that the final hurdle was indeed a test of talent.
But not today, but tomorrow.
After listening to the elder's story, Naam's face was a little gloomy, it was obvious that he was worried about talent, kobolds have extremely low talent, which is well known among orcs.
He can sit at his best in other areas, but he can't do anything about talent.
For the inferior demon clans, the bloodline talent is an insurmountable mountain that stands in their way, and no matter how hard they try, they will eventually fall under the mountain.
This is also the fundamental reason why they are willing to be slaves.
But looking at his sad appearance, I couldn't help but laugh on the side.
After my transformation of his acupuncture point, coupled with the effect of the elixir fruit, when the test starts tomorrow, I hope Namu will not be frightened by his talent.
