The Evil Emperor's Beloved

Yunhai College Elders' Council Chamber,

"The children are all here, let's go out and meet them!" Ouyang Chen, the president of Yunhai College who was sitting at the top, said to the elders sitting below.

The ten places for trial rewards all belong to Yunhai College, so the people staying in the Elders' Council at this time are all the elders of Yunhai College.

Ouyang Chen walked in front, followed by a group of elders, and walked out of the meeting hall of the Council of Elders in a mighty procession.

Jing Yueli and the others entered the courtyard where the Elders' Council was located and, under the guidance of the leading elder, sat down on the cushions in the courtyard.

Jing Wenhao, Feng Xuanyi and the others did not go in, but waited outside the courtyard.

Soon, footsteps were heard in the yard, and following the direction of the footsteps, Ouyang Chen and his group walked slowly towards them.

The immortal demeanor of these elders cannot be described with ordinary words.

In the Xuanyuan Dynasty, Jing Yueli and her friends had met many elders from various families. But compared with the elders from Yunhai College in front of them, the only adjectives Jing Yueli could use to describe the elders from various families were rubble and porcelain.

But the exception is her master, the fourth elder, and that is definitely just an exception.

When Jing Yueli and her group saw the elders coming, they all stood up and performed the student salute, which was what the leading elder had instructed them to do before.

Ouyang Chen looked at the new students below and nodded with satisfaction. Finally, his eyes fell on Jing Yueli, and Jing Yueli also noticed Ouyang Chen.

When their eyes met, Jing Yueli did not feel nervous as she stared at the legendary dean of Yunhai College.

How could Jing Yueli be so sure that this person was the dean of Yunhai College? Because from his appearance, one could vaguely see the shadow of Ouyang Rui.

"Are you the disciple that the fourth brother has his eyes on?" Ouyang Chen said.

Jing Yueli took a step forward and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, "In reply to the dean, this student is none other than the fourth elder's closed disciple, Jing Yueli."

"Hahahaha...how does the little girl know that I am the dean?" Ouyang Chen asked, touching the few strands of beard on his chin.

"I had the honor of meeting Ouyang Rui in Xuanyuan Country before, so..." Jing Yueli looked up at Ouyang Chen and did not say anything else, but everyone present understood what she meant.

This was the first time that the elders had looked at this girl directly, and the Fourth Elder treated her like a treasure.

"Ahem..." This damn kid, I forgot to settle everything with him before.

Seeing Ouyang Chen's embarrassment, Jing Yueli was about to change the subject when the elder who had led the way stood up and spoke again, "First of all, congratulations to all of you for officially becoming students of Yunhai College. You are lucky. This time, Yunhai College will only accept ten students in the inner courtyard, and the rest will be assigned to the outer courtyard."

As soon as these words came out, Jing Yueli and her group were very sure of one thing, that there would be no exceptions to the ten places, which also meant that three of them could only stay in the outer courtyard. No one would feel good about who would be the one to take charge of this matter.

Just when everyone was in this heavy atmosphere, a messy sound of footsteps was heard outside the yard. Everyone turned around and looked. Wow, Xuanyuan Xu had just arrived.

Looking at this person, Jing Yueli remembered that she had actually forgotten about this person, and quickly looked at other people.

Well, everyone had the same expression, obviously they had all forgotten about this person.

"Who is it?" The elder who led the way asked Xuanyuan Xu, whose hair and clothes were extremely messy.

"I...I am with them." Xuanyuan Xu said, pointing at Jing Yueli and the others standing in the yard.

The guide elder looked at Jing Yueli and his group with an inquiring look, and finally his gaze fell on Jing Yueli. Jing Yueli had no choice but to nod as a representative, indicating that she agreed with Xuanyuan Xu's statement.

"Then come in quickly!" The elder who led the way was a little impatient. The elders also looked at Xuanyuan Xu curiously, wondering how a team could end up in such a state.

The guide elder continued, "Are you also curious? The trial was said to have six levels in total. Why did you enter the academy after getting the fifth token?"

That's true. Everyone is very curious, but they all choose to keep silent about it. If there is one less hurdle, everyone would definitely be happy to see it happen. It would be stupid to bring it up.

"Haha, because the sixth level is right here." The elder who led the way looked mysterious.

"Ahem, that's enough!" One of the elders couldn't bear it anymore and reminded.

"Okay, okay, this is just to tease them, hahaha!" The leading elder touched his nose with his right hand, slightly embarrassed.

The sixth level came so unexpectedly, and a powerful pressure overwhelming Jing Yueli and his group.

Xuanyuan Xu probably hadn't adjusted his disordered breathing yet. With a crisp "click" sound, he knelt on his knees and then fell to the ground.

The others were not feeling well either. They heard a voice coming from above their heads, "Let's see how long you can withstand the pressure from the Nascent Soul cultivation level. The ten places for the inner courtyard will be decided from now on."

"Someone, pull him away." The leading elder pointed at Xuanyuan Xu who was lying on the ground.

As soon as he finished speaking, two people wearing college uniforms with a ruler pattern embroidered on their chests appeared in the yard and took Xuanyuan Xu away.

Within a quarter of an hour, people were taken out of the yard one after another as they could not bear the pressure. The first to be hit were Si Mowen and Leng Tianshuang.

Blood was oozing from the corners of Si Mojue and Si Moxuan's mouths. One of their knees was already on the ground, but they were still gritting their teeth and holding on.

"Puff!" Wen Jinyu had already vomited blood. He had been injured before and hadn't recovered yet, and now...

Seeing them like this, Jing Yueli felt uncomfortable at all. This was a crushing defeat due to strength, and an unknown anger gradually rose in her heart.

Si Mojue, Xuanyuan Chen, and Si Moxuan finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground.

The two people from before appeared again and pulled them out of the range of the pressure.

Next came Leng Tianchao, Xuanyuan Chen and Su Heqin.

Jing Yueli felt as if all her bones were about to break and her skin began to bleed.

"Master, give up!" Li Yu looked at the young lady beside her, tears already flowing from the corners of her eyes. When had their master ever suffered such humiliation?

Jing Yueli's ears had begun to deteriorate and her eyelids could hardly open.

"Puff!" Jing Yueli spat out a mouthful of blood.

Jing Yueli was almost stuck to the ground, but she refused to give in. Her nails dug into her palms and blood dripped onto the ground through her fingers.

Taking a deep breath, Jing Yueli turned the spiritual power in her body and let it flow through her entire body along the eight extraordinary meridians, trying to relieve some of the pain in her body in this way.

With Jing Yueli's cultivation, an ordinary person would not be able to withstand such pressure. This is also due to the fact that she usually drinks spiritual spring water as ordinary water and soaks in hot spring pool water.

However, being able to hold on until now is almost reaching Jing Yueli's limit.
