259: Chapter 259, Fifteenth Floor! Three People on the Same Floor!

Outside the Star Tower.

The moment Jiang Mengxi's figure appeared, it immediately caused an uproar.

After all, besides Xiao Xun, Jiang Mengxi was the recognized top student of their year.

Everyone had assumed she would definitely pass the fifteenth floor and enter the Star Academy.

To everyone's surprise, she had failed on the fourteenth floor.

Even the teachers were somewhat surprised.

Teacher Gu Chuan frowned deeply and couldn't help but ask, "Jiang Mengxi, why did you come out early?"

"Was there an unexpected incident inside the Star Tower?"

Jiang Mengxi shook her head with a calm expression. "I apologize, Teacher. I was careless and was surrounded and poisoned by Nine-Segment Emerald Pythons."

"Although I was lucky enough to shake off the monsters and delay until the toxin's effect wore off, I no longer had the strength to continue fighting."

Teacher Gu Chuan sighed.

This situation was not uncommon.

Due to the special restrictions inside the Star Tower, once someone is poisoned or falls into other negative states, the situation becomes extremely dangerous.

In previous years, there were even times when no one passed the assessment.

He waved his hand. "Then go down and rest, and prepare well for next year's assessment."

Jiang Mengxi nodded. "Yes."

Afterward, she walked down.

However, she had only taken two steps when she saw Luo Siyue waving at her. "Captain! Captain, come here!"

Only then did Jiang Mengxi realize that Luo Siyue had also already withdrawn from the assessment.

She subconsciously wanted to walk over.

However, her gaze inadvertently fell upon Gu Rongyu, who was standing to the side.

The expression on her face froze for a moment.

She hesitated for a second before saying, "Jinx, I'm not feeling well, so I'm going back first."

However, how could Luo Siyue let Jiang Mengxi leave so easily at this moment?

Ever since she had been taken in by Gu Rongyu, she had been feeling incredibly guilty.

She was terrified that if she wasn't careful, she would blurt out what she had done when facing Lin Mo inside the Star Tower.

She was even more afraid that Gu Rongyu would notice her guilt.

To avoid this, she only dared to speak to Song Cheng.

Now that she had finally seen Jiang Mengxi, she ran directly in front of her. "Captain, where are you injured? Let me help you take a look."

"I have medicine here."

As she spoke, Luo Siyue was about to check Jiang Mengxi's injuries.

Jiang Mengxi's mouth twitched.

How could she dare to let Luo Siyue check?

Anyone with a discerning eye would know that her injury was caused by someone sucking out the venom with their mouth.

The marks from the suction were still there.

Jiang Mengxi raised her hand to block Luo Siyue. "It's fine, they're just minor injuries."

"I just need to drink a bottle of holy spirit potion."

"Let's just wait here and see."

"Coincidentally, I'm also curious to see who exactly will be able to pass the assessment."

Jiang Mengxi forcibly suppressed the emotions in her heart and, with an expressionless face, came to Gu Rongyu's side with Luo Siyue.

Song Cheng was the first to step forward and say, "Captain Jiang, you will definitely succeed next time!"

"I believe in you!"

Jiang Mengxi nodded slightly without saying much.

Gu Rongyu asked curiously, "Captain, did you see Lin Mo when you were on the fourteenth floor just now?"

"How is he doing?"

Jiang Mengxi tried her best to keep a calm face and shook her head. "I didn't see him."

"Has he also reached the fourteenth floor?"

Gu Rongyu looked a bit disappointed upon hearing this.

However, every floor inside the Star Tower is like a Small World, and the area is extremely vast to begin with.

Not meeting each other is the norm.

Seeing that Gu Rongyu believed her, Jiang Mengxi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Afterward, Jiang Mengxi also looked toward the Star Tower with some curiosity.

Currently, there were five points of light remaining inside the Star Tower.

Having broken through again, Qin Yao was on the 19th floor.

Located on the 15th floor were Jiang Wu and Xiao Xun.

Located on the 14th floor was, naturally, Lin Mo.

And there was Duan Lei on the 5th floor.

Jiang Mengxi felt a sense of emotion.

There were thirty people who signed up for their year alone.

Unexpectedly, in the end, only Xiao Xun and Duan Lei remained.

Moreover, it was clear that Duan Lei had encountered trouble and was unable to enter the next floor.

Otherwise, she would likely have failed long ago.

The difficulty was evident.

While she was thinking this, the point of light representing Lin Mo jumped upward once again, entering the fifteenth floor.

The disappointment on Gu Rongyu's face vanished instantly. "He's entered the fifteenth floor."

"As long as he passes this floor, he can become a student of the Star Academy!"

However, Luo Siyue's expression was somewhat serious.

Her gaze scanned back and forth between the light points of Jiang Wu and Lin Mo.

Others might not know, but she was very clear that the Jiang Family would absolutely not let things rest.

Jiang Wu's strength was actually at most just a little bit worse than Qin Yao's, and his previous Breakthrough speed was similar to Qin Yao's.

But now, he had suddenly stopped on the fifteenth floor.

She suspected that Jiang Wu was likely waiting for Lin Mo, wanting to cause trouble for him.

Luo Siyue thought for a moment, then decided to share her worry with Gu Rongyu and the others.

Gu Rongyu's expression changed drastically. "Jiang Wu wants to attack Lin Mo inside the Star Tower?"

"Is he not afraid of the academy holding him accountable after he comes out?"

Jiang Mengxi had a serious expression. "The inside of the Star Tower forms its own world and does not fall under the academy's jurisdiction."

"Unless there is clear evidence, they will usually turn a blind eye."

The expression on Gu Rongyu's face became increasingly ugly. "Then what should we do?"

"I'm going to find Teacher Bai now!"

Jiang Mengxi quickly grabbed Gu Rongyu. "It's useless; life and death are already at one's own risk inside the Star Tower."

"It's meaningless for you to go now."

"Let's wait."

"I believe…" Jiang Mengxi's gaze fell on the light point representing Lin Mo inside the Star Tower. "Lin Mo will not let us down."

"With his strength, perhaps he will have already entered the next floor before even encountering Jiang Wu."

Gu Rongyu stopped in her tracks, but the look of worry on her face could not be contained.

Inside the fifteenth floor of the Star Tower.

After just teleporting here, Lin Mo didn't even check the mission requirements, but instead looked at Ling'er immediately.

"How is it? Is there anything?"

Ling'er nodded heavily, and a feeling of desire was transmitted into Lin Mo's mind.

Her tail pointed toward the street to the front right.

The corners of Lin Mo's mouth curled up slightly. Sure enough, his guess was correct; he could feast again!

Afterward, Lin Mo glanced at the notifications on the panel.

[Star Tower Trial Fifteenth Floor Mission]

[1. Obtain 250 points (killing a Yellow Spring Dew Avatar grants 25 points)]

[2. Kill the Huangquan Emperor Dew BOSS]

[Mission Reward: Enter the next floor]

"Yellow Spring Dew Avatar?"

Lin Mo frowned slightly.

Isn't this the thing from the Slaughter City in Douluo that affects the sanity of Spirit Masters?

Unexpectedly, it had turned into a brand-new type of monster here.

Interesting.

The corners of Lin Mo's mouth curled up slightly. Let's see what this thing is actually capable of.

Lin Mo walked along the direction Ling'er pointed.

However, after walking only a few steps, Lin Mo discovered with some surprise that something inside his Storage Pouch was trembling.

Hmm?

Lin Mo took it out of his Storage Pouch and, upon glancing at it, realized it was actually the star mother-son stone that Xiao Xun had given him earlier.

"Is Xiao Xun also on this floor?"
