The First Academy in the Cultivation World

Dongfang Zichu and Ling Ziye both accepted this suspicion, and Ling Yan'er's analysis made sense.

The dangers of these two rooms are not very high, and anyone in the foundation-building stage can basically pass through these rooms.

If this is a trial ground for teams, it would make sense.

With this guess, the three of them encountered a new fork in the road. Ling Yan'er still chose a path and entered a new room.

If Ling Yan'er hadn't been able to see the date on her phone, the three of them wouldn't have known how long they had been there.

Each time it is a different room. When you come out of a room, you will encounter a three-way intersection, and there is only one room at the end.

Half a month later, the three of them were teleported out in a mess.

Ling Ziye and Dongfang Zichu had used up all the spiritual power in the Spirit Heart Stone, and Ling Yan'er was also very listless. She had not eaten or slept well in there.

After coming out, she released the flying boat. The three of them got on the flying boat and found a room each. After Ling Yan'er entered the room, she placed the eleven spirit heart stones on the table, took a shower, and quickly lay down on the bed.

When she was in there, she didn't even have a place to take a bath, and she had to rely on Ling Ziye and Dongfang Zichu's Cleansing Technique. She felt that washing with water was more comfortable.

It was already the next afternoon when Ling Yan'er woke up. After dinner, she came out and saw Ling Ziye and Dongfang Zichu had also come out.

Before coming out, she didn't know how many rooms the three of them had broken into. She only knew that in the last room was a puppet in the late stage of out-of-body state.

If Ling Ziye and Dongfang Zichu couldn't defeat the previous monsters together, she would use a mirror to get more things. The mirror could kill the monsters by reflecting them, but unfortunately it didn't work against the puppet.

When Ling Ziye and Dongfang Zichu were unable to defeat the puppet and their spiritual power was exhausted, Ling Yan'er shouted, "We surrender," and the news was spread out.

Seeing Ling Yan'er come out, Ling Ziye from Class A asked, "Didn't you say before that we wouldn't need a flying boat?"

Ling Yan'er looked down from the flying boat and saw quite a few people gathered below. Feeling guilty, she said, "Isn't it because I was so tired from coming out that I forgot about it?"

Dongfang Zichu said, "Someone just came up to ask about it, and Ling Ziye introduced our academy."

Ling Yan'er gave Ling Ziye a thumbs-up: "Not bad, you're actively promoting our academy."

Ling Ziye pretended not to hear the compliment and said, "At least having an academy is better than knowing that we are independent cultivators. We won't be targeted by others."

"Really?" Dongfang Zichu asked, "What's the difference between an academy I've never heard of and a casual cultivator?"

"Even an academy I've never heard of has a dean, but a casual cultivator is just a casual cultivator." Ling Yan'er said, "There's a huge difference. The dean's protection for you is not just talk!"

"Then why did you admit defeat yesterday?" Dongfang Zichu asked.

If you can't win, why not just admit defeat? Ling Yan'er pretended to look down and didn't hear what Dongfang Zichu said.

"How do you know you can get out by just admitting defeat?" Ling Ziye asked.

After entering the room and releasing the metal puppet after various tests, the three of them knew that they could not win. Beating him until his spiritual power was exhausted was not because he wanted to train, but because he wanted to live.

But Ling Yan'er shouted out her surrender at the perfect moment, and the three of them were teleported out. It can be seen that Ling Yan'er had known about it for a long time. She was really tight-lipped and didn't reveal anything.

Ling Yan'er withdrew her gaze from the crowd below. "I guessed it when I found out this was a trial scene. I've observed that the corridors along those routes are absolutely safe. If there's a way out, it must be from there."

"But we've all checked. There's nothing special about those corridors. There's no place to teleport out. And there's only one room. Find the monsters, puppets, and hidden weapons in the room. Defeat them and survive to move on to the next room."

"If it could be teleported out, then there would be them in all the corridors, but in reality there aren't any. So there's only one way to get out: admit defeat. Anyway, no one else can see it, and there's no shame in admitting defeat."

Ling Ziye and Dongfang Zichu listened to Ling Yan'er's analysis. They looked at each other, and Dongfang Zichu asked, "Do you know how their people got out?"

Ling Yan'er shook her head: "Did the people down there also come out from inside?"

Dongfang Zichu said, "Part of it is that each team inside has a maximum of five people, and a minimum of two people. None of them admit defeat. Just like the demon-suppressing tower in your academy, they were teleported out when they were on the verge of death."

Ling Ziye added, "Unlike the Demon Suppression Tower, the near-death experience there wasn't real, but here, it's like actually dying once."

Fortunately, the three of them were not in very good condition after they came out, so it was not out of place compared to them.

When those people came out, their condition was really bad. Those who had sects were okay, but as for the independent cultivators, the two of them had seen several cases of people taking advantage of the opportunity to kill people and steal treasures.

Ling Yan'er released the flying boat just in time. When Ling Ziye came out, there were people attacking the flying boat, but they were all blocked by the flying boat's protective formation. He had to kill a few people before they were frightened.

Someone tried to please him, and he inquired about the information but didn't dare to let anyone on the flying boat. Of course, he didn't know that only Ling Yan'er had the authority to let people on the flying boat.

Ling Yan'er touched her neck, feeling a chill even in the summer heat. "Is it really that scary?"

Dongfang Zichu said: "Not only that, the fatal wounds will not be healed after coming out, but will still be hanging on for a breath."

Because the three of them had Ling Yan'er's Yin-Yang Mirror, although Ling Ziye was injured, it was not fatal.

Dongfang Zichu would just attack from a distance to help, and Ling Yan'er would just stand wherever it was safe.

The last puppet also injured Ling Ziye, but not seriously. Before he suffered more serious injuries, Ling Yan'er shouted "surrender".

So among those who came out, only these three were in the best condition.

"Our Demon Suppression Tower is still the best," Ling Yan'er said proudly, "You'll find you're not hurt when you get out."

Ling Ziye nodded: "Not only that, it will also reduce the fear of death."

When Ling Yan'er heard this, she frowned and said, "This is good, but also not good."

"What do you mean?" Dongfang Zichu asked.

Ling Yan'er said, "Ease the fear of death. If they're used to exchanging injuries for injuries and don't take death seriously, then they might not take death seriously when they encounter a real monster."

Ling Ziye recalled his experience in the Demon Suppression Tower and said, "No safe trial ground is perfect. Take this place for example. I encountered those monsters here with ease and didn't suffer any injuries. That's because I fought them in the Demon Suppression Tower before and knew their weaknesses."

"Isn't it because I used the Yin-Yang Mirror?" Ling Yan'er said.

Ling Ziye held his forehead with his hand and said, "Those are monsters I have never seen before. I have never lost to any monsters I have encountered in the Monster Suppression Tower."

Not only here, but the monsters he encountered in this secret realm before were much easier to deal with than those in the previous secret realms.

There's no other reason. Not counting those with lower realms, he can deal with five of them at a time, and of course it's easy to deal with a single one as well.

Ling Yan'er set the destination to the next one. After the flying boat took off, she said, "Have you guys recovered enough? Let's go pick some spiritual herbs first."

She saw a spiritual herb garden on the map, but there was no one there yet.

Ling Ziye and Dongfang Zichu had no objection.

Ling Ziye once again truly felt the sense of security that accompanied Ling Yan'er in the secret realm. Although he had no cultivation and should have never been exposed to these things before, he was able to analyze the trial settings and rules in the secret realm.

Before, Ling Yan'er would specially find some monsters with higher cultivation than him for him to test. Well, if he got injured, he would return to the flying boat and continue fighting after he recovered.

In other words, monsters act on instinct and have no intelligence, otherwise they would not wait to be beaten.

Ling Ziye used this method to obtain many monsters with higher cultivation than him, and his swordsmanship also improved greatly.

Although he told Ling Yan'er that the Demon Suppression Tower was safe, it was too safe, which sometimes made him lack the sense of crisis when fighting against real monsters.

When facing a real monster in the secret realm, even if he has Ling Yan'er's flying boat not far away as a retreat, he has to retreat into it to count as having a retreat; if he can't retreat into it, it will be useless.
