As Nangong Lingyun spoke, Tang San and Tang Hao beside him were both dumbfounded.
To intercept fragments of time and space and compete on the same stage with legendary figures whose abilities and strengths have been proven by facts is an unheard-of method of assessment.
Even with their confidence,
at this moment, they couldn't help but feel apprehensive.
San Zi asked with a grim expression:
"Isn't this a bit too difficult?"
"Difficult?
Heh heh!
What do you think Feixian City is?
Under normal circumstances, in a lower-level Lesser World with a population of hundreds of billions, it would take hundreds or even tens of millions of years of evolution to produce a transcendent.
It can be said that naturally born Immortals are one in a billion. If you include the other living beings, which are far more numerous than humans, it would be more than one in a trillion.
Feixian City isn't without non-human Immortals, and they account for a significant proportion.
Although there is now an assessment to help, providing various conveniences and special resources that would not be accessible in one's own World, the actual standards have not been lowered much.
You need to know that this is only the second trial.
To pass all nine trials, is that just a matter of difficulty? It's almost impossible. In previous batches of thousands, it's rare for even one to stand out.
However, as long as you pass the third trial, entering Feixian City as an ordinary resident, a soldier in the subordinate legions, or a low-ranking officer is not a problem.
After the third trial, each additional trial passed will result in a corresponding increase in treatment, status, and conditions.
Those who pass all nine trials are all Cruisers, Regional Commanders, Pacification Commissioners, Commanders, and other key positions with great power and control over one area.
The idea that passing three trials would give a chance to enter Feixian City was something Nangong Lingyun came up with on the spur of the moment.
He was afraid that setting the tone too high would discourage San Zi too much, and it wouldn't be good if he gave up on himself.
And as expected,
as soon as these words came out, Tang San and Tang Hao were overjoyed.
If the second trial is already so heaven-defyingly difficult, one can imagine that the later trials will only be more insane, perverted, and invincible.
If they were only allowed to join after passing all nine trials, not to mention San Zi, even Tang Chen would have no hope.
Although the hope of passing three trials is also very slim, at least it can be seen.
After digesting the information, Bing Qing Yu Jie suddenly had a flash of inspiration,
"By the way, Feng Ge, what are your current results? What's your ranking?"
"Don't try to get information out of me. Can I tell you classified information?"
Hao Zi also took the opportunity to ask a question he was wondering about,
"Then what about Nangong Lingyun? Since Feixian City is even more powerful than the God Realm, why did he accept the God Realm's inheritance instead of participating in the Flying Immortal Assessment?"
"What makes you think he didn't participate? Because those four words didn't appear on the ranking monument?
Dragons seek dragons, snakes seek snakes. He just didn't team up with ordinary students under his command.
"I see. But with his strength, he should have a chance to enter the top few on the ranking list, right?"
"How would I know that?
The passing rate for the second trial is as high as 30%. If one's strength reaches a certain level, one can easily control their results, and it's normal to hide one's strength for the more difficult trials later on."
… …
After asking several questions in a row, and having nothing left to ask,
Tang San and Tang Hao suddenly exchanged glances.
As their eyes parted, San Zi quickly retreated, while Hao Zi slowly stood up, and with a wave of his right hand, the huge Clear Sky Hammer instantly appeared in his palm.
In the next instant, Tang Chen also appeared silently at the door of the room,
his entire body tightly wrapped in the Shura armor with blood-colored magic patterns, a pair of bat wings gently fluttering behind him, and the heavy Shura Blood Sword in his hand.
"What are you trying to do?"
Nangong Lingyun appeared very calm, feigning surprise for a moment before quickly regaining his composure.
Upon hearing this, Tang Hao actually revealed a trace of apology on his face.
He turned the Clear Sky Hammer to his chest and held it with both hands, as if performing a weapon salute, his waist slightly bowed, and his expression extremely pious.
"I'm sorry. You've helped Little San a lot and told us many secrets.
If it weren't for Feixian City, whether it's me, San Zi, or Grandpa, or even the entire Sect, we would all be willing to be your friends, and even consider it a godsend.
Unfortunately, with Tang San's current condition, the chances of passing the assessment are completely zero, and we can't even see a glimmer of hope.
Therefore, we need you to tell us more secrets, the kind that can't be easily revealed to outsiders.
For example, the other information about the Flying Immortal Assessment that you've been hiding.
Also, the God King Laws, God King Techniques, and God King Skills that you mentioned earlier. Being able to know these things means you must have come into contact with them in the past.
Also, you must have cultivated Cultivation Methods, martial skills, and secret techniques, right?
As long as you're willing to confess, I can guarantee not to harm your life. How about it?"
When Tang Hao bowed,
the expression on Nangong Lingyun's face suddenly froze. This time it wasn't a pretense, but genuinely extremely uncomfortable.
For some reason, looking at Tang Hao like this, he suddenly felt a heartfelt revulsion.
Every second he spent here made him feel uneasy all over.
If you're going to kill, then kill. If you're going to steal treasures, then steal treasures. But to put on a pitiful act as if you didn't want to and were just forced to is a bit too shameless, isn't it?
Moreover, the iconic bowing gesture easily reminded him of certain humanoid garbage from his previous life.
Speaking of which, the Tang Clan is actually a bit similar to those Japanese pirates: hypocritical, shameless, double-standard, without any bottom line, and with an unbroken lineage.
This makes it even more disgusting.
However, the plot hasn't entered the real climax yet,
Nangong Lingyun didn't act prematurely. His expression returned to calm, and he said indifferently:
"I'm a little curious. What makes you think you can take me down?"
Tang Hao laughed, a very unrestrained laugh, as if he was greatly amused.
"It seems like I should be asking that, right? Facing a Super Douluo, a Demigod powerhouse who has surpassed the Ultimate and possesses a God King inheritance,
you're just an unweaned kid with a Cultivation of only a Spirit King. What makes you so calm and composed? Do you really think we wouldn't dare to kill you just because you have some background?
Stop bluffing. We're not easily scared. You have no choice but to cooperate obediently."
In his words,
two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red, nine spirit rings emerged one by one. They didn't appear instantly, but slowly lit up and expanded one after another, deliberately slowing down the movement as if showing off.
After all the spirit rings were released, there was also a very powerful aura that crushed in all directions like a flood.
Tang Chen didn't speak or make any obvious movements,
but his standing there already indicated his attitude.
"It seems that the lesson Kaiyuan Sect taught you last time wasn't big enough?
Aren't you afraid of trying to steal a chicken only to lose the rice?"
Tang Hao laughed even louder.
In this World, it's not just San Zi who is frustrated. The once-majestic Clear Sky Douluo in the original timeline also suffered countless setbacks and desperately needs to use boasting to restore his inner confidence.
