As the fog in the peripheral area of Wujian Lake receded, the imperial garrison at the teleportation points on all sides of Wujian Lake immediately beat their war drums. On the ships of the major colleges, a series of escape lights swept down, and they all began to gather towards the teleportation point.
On the Tiannan College ship, Han Feng suddenly opened his eyes at this moment, and a light flashed in his eyes. After a night of adjustment, his condition had returned to its peak!
Immediately, under the leadership of Vice President Gu, the three palace masters, and the instructors, all Tiannan College disciples flew off the ship and rushed to the teleportation point.
When they arrived at the teleportation point, there were hundreds of Qianlan Empire soldiers guarding a circular teleportation array, and four formation masters were activating the formation.
At this moment, teams from all major colleges showed up to gather, and Han Feng and others finally saw the teams from three first-class colleges at the northern entrance.
Among them, the hundreds of disciples from the Shadow Academy were all dressed in black, with vague auras. Many even covered their faces, revealing only pairs of cold eyes. Their gloomy aura gave people a chilling feeling.
"Jinling College", which is also a first-class college, is also quite unique. Although these participating disciples are all wearing the uniforms of college disciples, they also add many decorations in addition to the college uniforms.
Most of the male disciples wear jade belts around their waists, swords, and forehead mops. Their hands are often also adorned with some conspicuous jade rings, gold bracelets, and other accessories.
And those female disciples were all dressed in gold, jade, makeup and powder, and were dressed extremely delicately and beautifully.
This group of young men and women, all wearing bright clothes and angry horses, chatting and laughing, don't look like they are here to participate in the Inner Sea Trial, but more like they are on vacation at Wujian Lake.
Han Feng didn't find this too strange, because yesterday on the ship, he heard someone mention that Jinling College is a veritable "noble college" among the nine first-class colleges in the empire.
Most of the students in the college are the children of some of the empire's powerful people. Although they have extraordinary talents, they are spoiled and cannot endure hardships. They are not accepted by other first-class colleges, so they are sent to Jinling College by their respective families.
Although the actual combat abilities of the students at Jinling College are often much weaker than those of other first-class colleges, because everyone comes from a prominent family, most of them have various life-saving items given by their families.
In addition, most of the disciples from other colleges did not want to provoke these second-generation ancestors with profound backgrounds, so the elimination rate of Jinling College in previous Inner Sea Trials was extremely low.
Compared with Shadow Academy and Jinling Academy, Zhongzhou Academy, which is both a first-class academy, is a traditional martial arts academy with a profound foundation.
The hundreds of disciples from Zhongzhou College who came to compete were all dressed in dark yellow uniforms. They were all tall and straight, full of energy, and had an extremely compelling aura.
Compared with these first-rate colleges, second-rate colleges such as Tiannan College are naturally much weaker in terms of momentum and overall team strength, but the overall situation can be considered solemn and orderly.
In contrast, the teams from these third-rate colleges present seemed somewhat mixed, even a little chaotic.
At this moment, more than ten martial arts schools gathered at the northern teleportation point. Under the auspices of a military general, the soldiers present distributed a "jade talisman" and a metal "bracelet" to the disciples of each major academy. .
This jade talisman is a "teleportation jade talisman". If the contestant encounters fatal danger during the trial, he can actively crush the jade talisman and be immediately teleported out of Wujian Lake.
However, exiting Wujian Lake before the end of the trial is equivalent to giving up, and your points will be cleared.
Of course, if your jade talisman is broken by another academy disciple, not only will you be directly teleported out of Wujian Lake, but your points will also be transferred to the other party.
That metal bracelet is used to count the personal points of the contestants.
During the Wujian Lake trial, contestants can directly transfer the "spiritual medicine" or "monster inner elixir" obtained through their bracelets. The official will promptly display the points on the contestants' bracelets based on the value of the items.
At the same time, this bracelet also has a certain sensing function. Disciples from the same college can sense each other's position within a hundred miles through the bracelet.
Shortly after everyone received the two items, a ball of yellow aura suddenly bloomed from the teleportation array in front of them.
I saw that the void above the teleportation array suddenly twisted and deformed, forming a huge vortex, and a powerful energy wave spread out in all directions!
The teleportation array has been completely activated.
At this moment, a majestic voice came from the distant void.
"The four teleportation arrays have been activated, and the Inner Sea Trial has officially begun. All contestants are entering the arena!"
As this voice fell, the contestants from the four teleportation points began to enter the "Wujian Lake Battlefield", and the order of entry was based on the ranking of the previous Inland Sea Trial.
At this moment, on the northern teleportation array, the disciples of the Shadow Academy were the first to bear the brunt. A group of ten stepped directly onto the teleportation array. With a flash of yellow light in the vortex, the ten figures disappeared instantly.
Under the guidance of the garrison at the teleportation point, in a moment, all the Shadow Academy teams had entered the teleportation formation, followed by Zhongzhou College, Jinling College...
Soon, it was the second-rate college's turn to enter. At this time, the originally calm atmosphere among the Tiannan College team suddenly became tense.
Because everyone knows very well that as long as they step into the teleportation array and enter Wujian Lake, a severe and cruel test will be waiting for them.
At this moment, many of the instructors in the academy came forward and finally told their disciples to back up.
Jin Buhuan was also snatched out of the crowd by Niu Wudi, lifted directly into the air, and gave instructions in his ear.
Han Feng was watching this scene with great interest, when a figure flashed before his eyes, and a slim and beautiful figure wearing the uniform of a college instructor appeared in front of him.
The visitor was none other than Mu Qianxun. She looked at Han Feng in front of her, raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "How are you? We are about to enter Wujian Lake. Are you nervous?"
When Han Feng heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Wujian Lake shouldn't be more dangerous than the coastal battlefield."
Mu Qianxun also chuckled. She knew that with Han Feng's strength and combat experience, even in Wujian Lake, there would be no accidents.
However, she couldn't help but remind: "Han Feng, in Wujian Lake, the scary thing is often not the monsters, but the contestants from other colleges. You still have to be careful and don't show off!"
Hearing Mu Qianxun's concern, Han Feng nodded and said: "I will be careful, thank you for the reminder!"
At this moment, it was Tiannan College’s turn to enter.
Han Feng immediately called everyone in the team and waved to Mu Qianxun and others. A group of ten people walked towards the teleportation array. Finally, they stepped onto the teleportation array together, and their figures disappeared in the whirlpool.
Seeing Han Feng's figure disappear into the whirlpool, Mu Qianxun was still very casual on the surface, but for some reason, she was full of worries about Han Feng in her heart.
His mood was inexplicably complicated. Mu Qianxun rubbed his forehead and couldn't help but mutter to himself: "Huh, considering that you saved me once in the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars, I will barely care about you for once. !”
…
Time passed quickly. In just a quarter of an hour, all fifty-four martial arts academies and thousands of participating disciples at the portals in the southeast, northwest and northwest had entered the venue.
After receiving the order, the array masters at the teleportation point withdrew their mental support and immediately sealed the entrances to the four teleportation arrays.
At this moment, on the Tiannan College ship, the dean and vice dean Gu looked at the direction of Wujian Lake at the same time.
Vice President Gu said with a hopeful look on his face: "I hope these little guys can achieve good results in this trial."
The dean on the side shook his head and said: "Compared with their grades, I hope these children can return safely. After all, they are the foundation of my Tiannan College!"
…
But he said that the moment Han Feng and others entered the Wujian Lake teleportation array.
A powerful energy instantly enveloped his whole body, and his eyes fell into darkness, accompanied by a strong sense of dizziness and weightlessness.
This feeling lasted for several breaths, and Han Feng suddenly felt his body sink and his feet had landed on solid ground.
Before he could open his eyes, a scream suddenly came from behind him, and along with this fishy wind, it suddenly hit the back of his head.
Almost as an instinctive reaction, Han Feng used his spiritual power to condense a palm sword and swept it back suddenly.
"laugh……!"
Accompanied by a harsh sneer, the screams behind him stopped abruptly.
Han Feng opened his eyes and looked back, only to see a ferocious monster that looked like a beetle but was several feet long and wide, with a sharp horn on its head, about a few feet behind him.
But at this moment, this monster beast has been cut in half from the abdomen by his own spiritual power, and its blood and internal organs are scattered all over the ground.
But even so, this beetle monster with only half of its body left and in a dying state still crawled towards Han Feng. Looking at its eyes, which were as red as blood, it actually carried a crazy killing aura.
Seeing this scene, Han Feng couldn't help but frown. Seeing that the monster had crawled in front of him, he flicked his finger and a spiritual light shot out, instantly piercing the monster's brain.
This monster, which was not even in the false star realm and only had a nine-star Chen level cultivation, died instantly.
Immediately, Han Feng directly drove up the ark and soared into the sky. Only then did he realize that he was on an island with dense green plants, surrounded by vast water, and the outlines of some islands could be vaguely seen in the distance.
But none of his team members were nearby.
Han Feng had already anticipated this situation, so he directly raised the metal bracelet on his left arm and injected a bit of spiritual power.
The next moment, a white light spot and nine red light spots appeared on the surface of the bracelet.
Before entering Wujian Lake, everyone had been told that the same teleportation team would appear in different areas, but the distance between them would not exceed the range of a hundred miles sensed by the bracelet.
Han Feng looked at his bracelet and saw that the nine red light spots had begun to move and were approaching the white light spot where he was. It was obvious that the team was coming to join them.
Han Feng simply stayed where he was and waited for everyone. Sure enough, in just a stick of incense time, Miao Xing, Jin Buhuan, Nangong Qi and Lu Yun'er... all nine people had already arrived in the spirit boat.
Among them all, except for one intermediate disciple of the False Star Realm, he was unlucky. When he was teleported in, he fell directly into the lake, and was accidentally attacked by a group of Chen-level monsters. He was killing these monsters. At that time, he suffered some skin injuries, but the others were all safe.
After the team was assembled, everyone discussed the next plan of action together on the island.
Miao Xing, who had experience in a trial, told everyone that because Wujian Lake is vast and everyone is in the outermost area, there is basically no chance of the teams meeting each other in the first two days.
Even if some strong teams want to snatch points from weak teams, they will not start taking action when everyone has just stepped into Wujian Lake and before they have accumulated points.
Therefore, the environment that everyone is currently in is relatively safe, and they can safely explore the surrounding area, search for elixirs, or hunt monsters.
After some discussions, Han Feng decided to proceed with a "fixed-point search" based on his experience as a captain in the Ten Thousand Stars Sea.
Because there is a mysterious power lingering in Wujian Lake, ordinary communication charms, induction charms and other items cannot work. Instead, the metal bracelets worn by everyone are the most reliable.
In the subsequent search operation, Han Feng focused on himself, and the others spread out in an arc formation to ensure that everyone was within a hundred miles and could call each other for help.
Next, everyone followed Han Feng's plan and began to search from nearby waters.
Because only the outer areas of Wujian Lake are now open, and there are still a few days until the fog in the central area recedes, everyone has enough time to explore.
Han Feng also wanted to take this opportunity to find out the situation of Wujian Lake first in order to deal with various dangers that may arise next...
