59: As long as you can see it from a distance, you will die without regret
The interval was less than a second.
The stone tablet lit up and then dimmed.
This made the Senior Sister in Green Skirt suspect she was dreaming.
However, the line of small text appearing on the stone tablet, along with the stone tablet lighting up for the second time, reminded her that all of this was not a dream.
"Passing the first floor in less than a second, how is this possible..."
However, just as this thought arose in her mind.
The stone tablet dimmed once again.
Immediately after, another line of small text appeared below the first line.
Second floor: Passed.
Senior Sister in Green Skirt: "?!"
This time, it was two seconds!
Passed the second floor in two seconds!
"Impossible, I must be seeing things!"
The Senior Sister in Green Skirt clenched her delicate fists, trembling with excitement.
Passed the first floor in one second.
Passed the second floor in two seconds.
This represents absolute invincibility in strength among the same Realm!
"Could it be—"
A terrifying thought flashed through the mind of the Senior Sister in Green Skirt.
In reality, to become an Inner Sect Disciple.
It does not truly require clearing all nine floors of the Trial Tower.
By reaching certain other extreme conditions, one can also be accepted as an Inner Sect Disciple by the Yuxu Academy and be declared to have cleared the Trial Tower.
The term "cleared" here needs to be in quotation marks.
At most, it can only be considered a partial clear.
For example, clearing the first four floors.
Or, for example, clearing the first five floors.
And the so-called extreme conditions are of two types.
The first type: Clearing at least the first five floors within one hour.
The second type: Clearing the first four floors within one minute.
The first four floors of the Trial Tower are a test of pure combat potential.
Starting from the fifth floor, it involves an assessment of Comprehension Ability.
Being able to pass the first five floors within an hour is enough to prove that the examinee's combat potential is not weak, and they also possess a certain level of Comprehension Ability.
For such examinees.
As long as they Cultivate diligently and resources are sufficient, they still have a chance to reach the Peak Transcendent and possess terrifying combat strength.
Such people are undoubtedly worth cultivating.
Of course, if it takes more than an hour to pass the fifth floor, then there is no need to continue to the sixth floor.
Because, in this situation.
Once the examinee enters the sixth floor, they will be judged as having failed by the Trial Tower.
Because of this, clearing the first five floors within an hour is defined as an extreme condition.
And the second extreme condition is clearing the first four floors within one minute.
Although the first four floors are purely a test of combat potential.
However, for an examinee capable of clearing the first four floors within one minute, their combat potential is undoubtedly invincible.
Such a person is hard to find an opponent for within the same Realm, and they even have the chance to fight against those in higher Realms, killing enemies across major Realm gaps.
"The first floor took one second, the second floor took two seconds—"
"The third floor, the fourth floor—"
Thinking of this, the breathing of the Senior Sister in Green Skirt became somewhat rapid.
"Even if the third and fourth floors are much harder than the first two, Mo Yingying still has hope of clearing the first four floors within one minute, reaching the extreme condition, and becoming an Inner Sect Disciple of the academy!"
It has been a long time since anyone in the Yuxu Academy succeeded in clearing the trial, or achieved a pseudo-clear by reaching the extreme conditions.
Now that Mo Yingying is clearing the trial so aggressively, the Senior Sister in Green Skirt is naturally excited.
At the same time, the stone tablet lit up again.
"The third floor has started. As long as the third floor is cleared within fifteen seconds, there will be enough time to clear the fourth floor!"
The Senior Sister in Green Skirt hurriedly held her breath, staring fixedly at the stone tablet while starting to count.
One second—
Two seconds—
Three seconds—
With a swish, the lit-up stone tablet dimmed again.
A third line of small text appeared below the second line.
Third floor: Passed.
"Huh?" The Senior Sister in Green Skirt, who was just about to count "four," froze instantly.
"Passed the third floor in just three seconds?"
"The third floor is so much harder than the second, yet it only took one second longer?"
"This, this, this, this... could it be that the Field and Magic Array of the Trial Tower have malfunctioned?"
However, very soon, she dismissed this thought of hers.
"That possibility does not exist. The Field and Magic Array are maintained jointly by the Sect Head and several Grand Elders. Over so many years, there has never been any error..."
"In that case, Mo Yingying is a true combat Genius, possessing a one-in-ten-thousand, peerless combat talent!"
"One second plus two seconds plus three seconds; the first three floors only consumed six seconds in total. Clearing the first four floors within one minute is a certainty!"
"No, I must notify Master immediately. Such a promising Disciple must become my Junior Sister!"
Thinking of this, the Senior Sister in Green Skirt hurriedly took out her communicator and dialed her Master's number.
Soon, the call was connected, and a somewhat lazy female voice rang out: "Ling'er, why are you contacting your Master?"
"Master, something terrible has happened!" Tang Ling shouted hurriedly.
"Hmm? How did Master teach you on a daily basis?" The voice on the other end of the phone sounded somewhat displeased.
"Master usually teaches us to be calm and composed, and not to panic when encountering matters..." Tang Ling said quickly.
"Hmm, it is good that you know. Remember to copy it a thousand times when you return, and hand it to Master tomorrow."
Tang Ling: "..."
"Speak, why are you contacting Master." The voice remained lazy.
Tang Ling had no doubt that her Master was lying on her side on a soft couch reading, while eating chilled watermelon with a spoon.
Taking a deep breath, Tang Ling then said unhurriedly:
"Master, Mo Yingying, whom I brought to the Trial Tower earlier, only consumed a total of six seconds for the first three floors."
"Now she is about to start the fourth floor assessment, and there is a very high probability that she will be able to clear the first four floors within one minute."
Just after finishing, Tang Ling was stunned. She widened her eyes again, looked towards the stone tablet, and counted in her heart at the same time.
The stone tablet lit up again.
"One second, two seconds, three seconds—"
Tang Ling counted silently in her heart.
When she counted to "five," the stone tablet dimmed again.
At the same time, a fourth line of small text appeared below the third line.
Fourth floor: Passed.
Seeing this result, Tang Ling's eyes widened more than a cow's.
Passed!
It only took five seconds!
Passed the fourth floor in just five seconds!
The first four floors combined only took eleven seconds!
Is this even human?!
At the same time, rustling sounds came from Tang Ling's communicator.
It sounded like someone spitting out watermelon seeds.
After a moment, the still lazy voice sounded again: "Ling'er, what was it that you said just now?"
Tang Ling rolled her eyes and said quickly:
"Mo Yingying only used six seconds for the first three floors, and only five seconds for the fourth floor."
"The total time consumed for clearing the first four floors was only eleven seconds."
"According to the regulations, she has achieved the second extreme condition and can be considered to have cleared the Trial Tower."
After finishing, Tang Ling looked at the stone tablet again.
She discovered that the stone tablet lit up again, seamlessly entering the next floor.
Thus, she added: "Oh, now she has started challenging the fifth floor."
After she finished speaking, there was a pause of several seconds on the other end of the communicator.
After a while, the originally lazy voice became urgent:
"You Rebellious Disciple, why didn't you notify Master about such an important matter sooner? Stay there and don't move, Master will be there immediately!"
If I go late, the Disciple will be snatched away by someone else!
Tang Ling: "?"
Why is my Master so unreliable?
"But I'm about to have a new Junior Sister, happy~"
...
The next day.
Mo Fan got up early, washed up simply, ate something casually to make do, and then began to Cultivate.
Today is November 11th.
Suitable for staying at home, avoid going out.
The rain was heavy, and he couldn't Cultivate the Golden Body Art facing the morning sun, so the efficiency was greatly reduced.
Regarding this, Mo Fan was also very helpless.
In the blink of an eye, a morning passed.
The rain finally stopped, and the dazzling sunlight shone down through the clouds, refracting ripples in the puddles.
After the rain cleared, a clearly visible, almost tangible rainbow bridge hung over Sunset Glow Peak.
Mo Fan pushed the door open and walked towards the Spirit Herb Garden.
The Golden Body Art becomes saturated after a few hours of Cultivation a day. At this time, the Qi and blood are surging; without digesting it, continuing to Cultivate will not have any effect.
Since he was idle anyway, Mo Fan prepared to go to the Spirit Herb Garden to take a look, work one last shift, and by the way, say goodbye to his colleagues.
Walking on the road, Utility Disciples were hurrying, but each and every one of them was talking excitedly.
"Have you heard? Yesterday someone succeeded in the trial!"
"How could I not have heard? This matter has already spread!"
"Yes, yes, I heard from a Senior Brother in the Outer Sect that the Sect Head and several Elders were waiting under the Trial Tower, waiting from yesterday morning until past six o'clock this morning!"
"Holy crap! Seriously? Wasn't there a heavy rain this morning?"
"Yeah, it is said that the Sect Head and the Elders just stood there, motionless under the tower, without even blinking, staring at the top of the tower the whole time, not even noticing that it was raining heavily!"
"It wasn't until seven-colored rays burst from the top of the tower and the Heavenly Gate opened that the Sect Head and the Elders breathed a sigh of relief and laughed out loud, shaking the dark clouds in the sky until they dispersed, and the falling rainwater even flowed back up!"
"Hiss? There is such a thing? Could the person who cleared the tower be the Granddaughter of some Grand Elder?" Mo Fan curiously leaned in and casually mentioned this.
Immediately, the few who were talking rolled their eyes at him.
"What nonsense are you talking about? That is a peerless Genius who cleared the Trial Tower, an ancestor that the entire Yuxu Academy has to worship!"
"Uh, that might be a bit exaggerated, but anyway, they are very powerful, not an existence that Utility Disciples like you and me can reach!"
"Yes, yes, I heard that that Genius also possesses the world's most perfect, peerless appearance, with beauty that tops the world. For such a Fairy, if one could just catch a glimpse from afar, one would die without regrets!"
Everyone: "!!!"
Mo Fan: "?"
I don't believe it. My daughter's appearance is the best in the world, unless you send me a photo to take a look!
Mo Fan shook his head and did not meddle in other people's business anymore.
This kind of gossip is mostly hearsay, and it is unknown how much of it is true.
Of course, no matter what the truth is, it has nothing to do with him.
"Forget it, time to go to work, and have a drink with Xiao Huohuo and the others tonight."
Shaking his head, Mo Fan walked unhurriedly towards the Spirit Herb Garden.
