Lin Xiao had to shake Song Hua one way or another. But he felt as if his soul has been drained dry. The young man was so annoying that if he could, he wished to stitch Song Hua's mouth.
The other three pretended that they didn't hear anything or know Lin Xiao, so they stayed at some distance from him. Thankfully, Song Hua's'friends' were not only Lin Xiao so he left after spotting someone he knew and pestered that person. 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝙣oν𝙚𝚕 - 🅽🅽novel
"He's very noisy, " Lin Yun commented.
Lin Xiao shot a glare."Why don't you help me out when he continues to pester me before? Don't you think that I need your help?"
"Brother, you're so amazing, so I don't think that you will need any help."
The praise only made Lin Xiao annoyed. He chose to stay silent and meditate. At the very least, Song Hua was also a cultivator and clearly knew the importance of meditating for them. There was no way he would interrupt a cultivator who was meditating unless he wished to make himself an enemy.
With that trick, Lin Xiao managed to pass the day peacefully.
The next day, there were still a stream of people coming. In fact, the number of people seemed to increase so much that the spacious area began to feel a bit cramped. After all, every cultivator kept their distance from each other to make sure that they would not fall for any unsound trick from others.
Swish!
The sudden pressure made everyone turned their head to the entrance. At this time, the two guards had already turned around.
"The time is up. Now, we're going to hold the examination test for Sun Dragon Academy. There are a total of 17, 984 cultivators in this area who have passed the first test. For the second test, we'll eliminate half of you."
Half?
Many people sucked their breath and looked at the two guards with solemn expression. They didn't want to be the eliminated one but it was clear that the guards didn't care about them in the slightest bit.
They only wanted to do their work.
"All you have to do is to stand firm in your place until the time is up."
Stand firm?
Lin Xiao furrowed his brows as he looked at the entrance. At this time, a beautiful woman walked to the entrance from the path. She was dressed in beautiful pink dress and the hem of her dress swayed slightly in accordance to her movement. Elegant and enchanting, that was the impression they all got from the beautiful woman.
The woman stood near the two guards and swept her gaze across them. The men who were drooling when they saw her body and the women who were envious of her features, all focused instantly. The faint pressure from her gaze alone was more than enough to tell them that she was a Golden Core Stage Cultivator.
No one wanted to seek trouble from someone who was more powerful than them like that.
"Hmm, there are a lot of geniuses in this place, " the woman said in careless tone. She merely looked at the people in the area without the slightest interest. More than 99 percent would be eliminated eventually, so there was no need for her to pay attention to everyone here.
"You may start, Senior Su."
Senior Su?
The woman was older than them? Or probably more senior than them?
With the woman's feature, everyone would only think of her as someone around the age of 20, but the words of the guards made them feel sweat dropping on their back. It seemed like Golden Core Cultivators had their own means to make sure that they didn't look like their age but younger.
The women cultivators were envious. Everyone wanted to look young forever. Even though they were all still very young right now, they knew that they would look older as time passed in the future.
"So beautiful, " Sui Wenyan murmured.
Senior Su, Su Lin, looked at the crowd and smiled."I hope you're ready."
A beautiful zither appeared on her hand and Sui Wenyan's expression changed. At that moment, she instantly realized that the woman would be playing a song for them. Even though she was only at Foundation Establishment, Sui Wenyan knew the effect of soundwave attack very well.
For those who have weak defense, just one attack was more than enough to bring them down.
Tring!
The melodious song began to play. The pressure was not that big as Su Lin maintained the power behind her song at moderate amount. If she went full power, it was clear that not a single one of them would be able to stay standing up until the very end.
Lin Xiao felt his mind buzzed a bit, but the three of them had already practiced with Sui Wenyan until they wanted to vomit blood. Sui Wenyan's skill at playing song and using soundwave to attack them was very good and at this time, the power that Su Lin used couldn't even count as half of what Sui Wenyan used to play for them.
After just a moment, Lin Xiao focused once more and looked at the front. The song was slowly getting more intense as he noticed that several people had fallen to the ground. They were unable to withstand the power of the soundwave.
Thud!
Lin Xiao had no time to care, though. As the soundwaves attack grew intense, they all could feel that the pressure was increasing. The guards were watching them with their clear gazes so that whoever fall down would be recorded by them.
No one would be able to escape.
'How easy. '
Sui Wenyan smiled bitterly. Since she was very familiar with soundwave, she knew how to use the same method to protect herself. The clash of soundwaves around her protected her at the very same time. For her, passing this stage would be easy as long as Su Lin didn't play hard song.
