Zi Mu didn't have much hope for the newbie trial at Beidou Academy. He has no special bloodline or outstanding talent. He even feels that the dean's choice of him is just a random person - there are still students in their Tianwu Academy who have the power of the sixth level of Tianpu like him. There were several of them, but Zimu didn't see any advantages between himself and them.
The dean didn't have any expectations for him, he just gave a few symbolic instructions. Several other outstanding figures from Tianwu Academy didn't even have any emotions because of this.
Everyone is so self-aware. Because although Tianwu Academy is small, it is located in Dongdu. This most prosperous town on the continent is the capital of the Qingfeng Empire. There are a total of thirteen colleges in this city alone, among which two colleges, Tianqing and Tianfeng, are among the top five in the mainland college rankings. The other colleges are also unique. Only Tianwu, talking about the Thirteenth Academy of Dongdu, didn't even count them. Obviously they are also a formal academy with a name on the academy rankings, but the people of Dongdu are unwilling to recognize them. They only hope that they will disappear soon so as not to disgrace the reputation of Dongdu's academy.
It is said that Tianwu Academy was once glorious in its early years, but now it has fallen to the bottom in the entire continent. People say that a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, but Tianwu Academy seems to be an exception.
But no matter what, they are still in Dongdu after all.
Living in this kind of environment, I have never eaten pork, and I have always seen pigs running or even flying. Most of the students at Tianwu Academy have poor backgrounds, low qualifications, and weak abilities, but their eyelids are as mixed as those of Dongdu people. Many people in Dongdu are not surprised by the experts and strangers from the academy, the court, and even the streets, let alone that they are still considered a group of cultivators.
The students of Tianwu Academy are extremely yearning for strength, but in the face of the cruel disparity, they give up their fate earlier. The goal of these people is just to go to other colleges in Dongdu to study for a few more years to learn some skills after graduating from Tianwu. Tianqing and Tianfeng didn't dare to think about the four major colleges that were aloof and beyond the rule of the empire? Don't even fantasize.
No one envied Zi Mu. Including himself.
He came just to go through the motions and make an explanation. This explanation was not even to himself, nor to Tianwu Academy. It’s about that referral opportunity they have. The opportunities from Beidou Academy, even if they know they cannot grasp them or even become a liability, they still have to respect them.
So Zimu came and was silently assigned to the group of twenty-eight people. The newcomers around me come from all over the mainland. They are all first-class talents. Zimu could not help but feel ashamed when he was among them. This inferiority complex was something he developed as early as when he was at Tianwu Academy. His patchy eyelids and higher vision would only make this inferiority complex more profound.
Then he met Lu Ping, a young man with the same insignificant background as him and the same low strength that made others dislike him.
Zi Mu and Lu Ping came together without thinking too much. I just want to have someone to comfort each other on this hopeless journey.
He didn't comfort Lu Ping much, and what Lu Ping brought him was not comfort, but shock, excitement, surprise, doubt, but more importantly: hope.
The hope he had never dared to have was gradually aroused by Lu Ping.
From what he saw, Lu Ping kept walking relentlessly.
He was thrown onto Lu Ping's shoulders and carried on his shoulders.
From what he saw, Lu Ping slapped Wei Ling down.
Now, Lu Ping wants to move forward. Go to the end of disappearance.
No matter what you are, I will go too!
Zimu followed, with a determined look on his face. He had decided to go this way to the end. The worst thing is, the worst thing is that I can’t walk anymore and let Lu Ping carry me!
People have achieved this level, but if they still flinch, are they still considered human beings?
Zimu decided resolutely.
The two of them continued on their way, and Lu Ping's expression was much more focused than before.
From the first moment I set foot on this mountain road. Lu Ping's listening ability caught the sound, the sound of the power of the spirit. It is vast and misty, like a net slowly moving between heaven and earth.
Lu Ping could hear its existence, but he couldn't hear its movements or changes.
So as he walked, he kept studying the power of courage he heard.
From Xiafeng Mountain to Beidou Mountain, Lu Ping's strength had improved somewhat in a few months. Tingpo is not only sharper, he has also accumulated a lot of experience along the way, which plays a vital role in using Tingpo well.
But after setting foot on this mountain road, the vast and smoke-like soul power gave him a disincentive.
This was another power that he had never seen before and could not judge how to start. However, Lu Ping still admired the cultivators who displayed such powers.
But now, he knew the name of this cultivator and the name of this superpower.
Li Yaotian, the end of disappearance.
This time, Lu Ping will never forget that Li Yaotian and his powers have left a deep impression on Lu Ping.
The people from Beidou Academy are indeed very strong. In fact, he had already felt this way in his heart.
But none of this will affect his continuation. He will not guess what the content of the trial is. In short, this road will eventually go on, right?
The end of disappearance? Wherever you disappear, you will go wherever you go.
Lu Ping kept walking, and when Zi Mu couldn't walk anymore, he picked him up. When Zi Mu regained his strength, he put Zi Mu down again. This was just a trivial matter to him, far less important than his study of the vanishing end.
He has listened to Po for so long, and he has listened to Po all the way. But the power of soul laid down by this superpower is really vast. Lu Ping worked hard to grasp some changes and some rules, but it was useless. There were more changes and more rules running. This ability is not as simple as punching and sword fighting at all.
But after hearing a lot about these changes and patterns, Lu Ping finally noticed something subtle.
In the process of the power of soul completing these changes and forming a regular pattern, the sound seems to have a common direction.
Ahead, right in front, the sound drifted away from that front.
This judgment is not clear, just a vague direction. However, it was always the same direction. Lu Ping faced forward and walked resolutely; Zimu followed him, and he would not give up his efforts until he could walk.
Just like that, I don't know how long it took, the sun gradually turned to the west and started to set. Lu Ping was still walking without wavering; Zimu also kept following without wavering. They never met any other newcomers and realized what the trial was, but no one would move forward along the mountain road like Lu Ping and Zi Mu.
