Maybe I shouldn't die.

Seeing this, Liu Yihe also replied:

"I hope we can all come back alive. Okay, let's go."

Upon hearing this, the disciples dispersed and walked towards their own residences in twos and threes.

After everyone had left, Ming Xiu finally began to sigh.

“I don’t know how many people will be able to return alive this time.”

Liu Yihe also looked at their backs in silence, and replied after a moment:

“I hope there will be more.”

Disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage were the most likely to die on the battlefield, and only two-thirds of their group of disciples returned in the end.

Mingxiu also sighed:

"Yeah, hopefully more."

After Fang Yue found her residence, she received a message from Junior Sister Ke Yu.

"Senior Sister, are you going to the Trial Tower tomorrow?"

Fang Yue thought for a moment and replied:

"go."

Soon another message came from there.

"I'll go too, we'll go together."

Fang Yue did not hesitate and replied immediately:

"it is good."

At the same time, she also received a message from Qian Mo Ning.

"Junior Sister Fang, we must go to the Trial Tower together tomorrow."

Fang Yue thought it was okay, but she had already promised Junior Sister Ke Yu, so she replied:

"Brother, it's too late. I've already promised Junior Sister Ke Yu."

Qian Mo Ning replied.

"It doesn't matter. I have also made appointments with other fellow disciples."

Fang Yue hesitated for a moment before answering:

"I need to ask Junior Sister Ke Yu first."

After all, Junior Sister Ke Yu seemed to be a bit of a loner. She had been on the Dukong Boat for several months but she had not been seen getting close to any of her fellow disciples.

Except that I became closer to her because of the purification technique.

Therefore, I still need to ask Junior Sister Ke Yu’s opinion first to see if she is willing to join others.

Qian Mo Ning naturally would not refuse and replied:

"No problem, you can ask Junior Sister Ke Yu first."

Fang Yue did not reply, but turned around and sent a message to Ke Yu, asking for her opinion.

Junior Sister Ke Yu also responded quickly:

"no problem."

Seeing the quick response, Fang Yue couldn't help but wonder if her previous judgment about Junior Sister Ke Yu's withdrawn personality was wrong.

However, she did not think about it too much and just quickly gave Brother Qian Mo Ning a positive reply.

Afterwards, she put away her disciple token and began to complete her daily practice.

Early the next morning, her disciple token vibrated. When she picked it up, she saw that it was a message from Junior Sister Ke Yu.

"Senior Sister, are you awake? Let's go to the Trial Tower as soon as possible."

Fang Yue did not refuse. There must be many monks who wanted to go to the Trial Tower, and it would be good to go there earlier, so she replied:

"Wake up, Junior Sister, wait a moment, it will be ready soon."

"Okay, Senior Sister, I'll wait for you downstairs."

Afterwards, she put all the tools for drawing talismans into the storage bracelet. Since she found that drawing talismans was most efficient when getting up early, she moved her daily talisman drawing time to the morning.

When she went out and came downstairs, Junior Sister Ke Yu was already waiting there. There were a few other fellow disciples gathered not far from her, discussing something.

Seeing Fang Yue coming down, those people immediately greeted her:

"Junior Sister Fang, now you are here. Now the only ones missing are Senior Brother and Senior Sister Qian."

Fang Yue replied:

"When I came down, I saw Senior Brother Qian going to look for Senior Sister Qian. He should be coming down soon."

It was indeed very fast. Before she finished speaking, Qian Mo Ning and Qian Mo Yu had already walked downstairs.

After saying hello, a group of people went out and walked towards the Trial Tower.

Fang Yue thought they had arrived early enough, but when they arrived at the trial tower, there were already quite a few people inside.

Fortunately, the Trial Tower does not allow only one person to enter at a time. The formation at the entrance will only be opened once every half hour. As long as the number of people exceeds twenty, they can enter as long as each person hands in one thousand low-grade spirit stones.

Of course, there is an upper limit. The formation can accommodate no more than 500 people, including those who have entered before.

The price is not expensive. As for why it is for twenty people, it is because each activation of the illusion array consumes twenty thousand low-grade spirit stones.

When they arrived, the previous group of trial-takers had just entered. There was a small light curtain at the entrance of the formation, which showed how many people were still inside the formation.

The number on it now was 168, which meant that there were 168 people undergoing the trial in the formation. Soon 168 became 167, and at the same time a figure appeared at the exit on the other side of the formation.

The man looked obviously unwell and had many wounds on his body.

Fang Yue couldn't help but take a closer look. Wasn't it said to be an illusion array? How come the people coming out of it had wounds on their bodies?

However, if you look closely, you will find that these wounds are not deep and are only on the surface.

But after just two glances, the man soon cast a cleansing spell on himself and left quickly.

Just a moment after he left, someone else came out from the formation.

When the entrance to the formation was opened again, the number displayed on the light screen at the entrance had changed to 109.

Fang Yue and his fellow disciples had already paid the money and were waiting at the entrance. When the time came, an entrance wide enough for one person to pass through appeared at the entrance of the formation.

The monks immediately walked towards the entrance of the formation in the order of their queue.

Fang Yue also followed the team into the formation.

As soon as she stepped into the formation, she immediately noticed that the surrounding environment had changed. She seemed to be in a wilderness. The land here was full of traces left by various spells, but there was no sign of any life.

The whole wilderness was silent.

Fang Yue couldn't help but look around. Even though she knew that this was an illusion, she couldn't find any flaws in the surrounding environment, as if she was really in a wilderness.

But she knew that this was impossible. She could only say that the illusion created by the formation was too real. She could even feel the wind blowing from the front of her.

There was a hint of blood in the wind.

Fang Yue guessed that her trial object should be in that direction.

So she walked in the direction of the wind.

Soon a huge monster figure appeared in her sight.

This monster was covered in black gas, and it was impossible to tell what color its body was. However, the black horns on its head were very conspicuous, and it was easy to recognize at a glance that it was a primary monster.

Fang Yue did not hesitate. He took out the talisman launcher in one hand and walked towards the monster with a few talismans in the other.

As the distance to the monster got closer and closer, Fang Yue could clearly feel the evil and tyrannical aura emanating from the black air surrounding the monster.

The contact with this breath made her feel very uncomfortable, and even the circulation of spiritual energy in her body stopped for a moment without her noticing.
