The whole family went mad, but the junior sister turned the tables and her luck soared.

Not long after the Nanhua Sect members arrived, all twelve sects had arrived.

Yun Yici looked into the distance and saw that the various sects maintained a polite distance. Then, the elder in blue robes who was leading the Wenxin Academy strode out.

The unsealing token for the entrance to the Rakshasa Illusionary Sea is kept in rotation by the twelve sects to prevent any sect from having the selfish desire to keep it for themselves.

This year it happens to be the turn of Wenxin Academy to keep the warrant.

From a distance, Yun Yici could only see that the elder of Wenxin Academy took out his spirit brush and pointed it into the air. Then, a circular pattern resembling the yin and yang fish rotated and grew larger.

The changing patterns seemed to contain endless array intent, and in the next moment, streaks of light flew out from the patterns and shot towards all the disciples present.

Yun Yici subconsciously reached out and took it, the warm, smooth wood making her hand sting slightly.

She turned her hand over and saw that the wooden plaque was engraved with a yin-yang symbol.

After the yin-yang fish seal above everyone stopped emitting light, everyone heard the elder at the front say, "Disciples of each sect, please infuse your spiritual power into the wooden tablets."

Yun Yici followed her instructions and infused her spiritual power into the wooden plaque. The yin-yang fish pattern on the plaque gradually disappeared and finally turned into the ancient characters of her name.

A short while later, her name also disappeared, replaced by a ranking of 1-10, but the ranking on the wooden sign was now empty.

"The wooden plaques serve as identification for each disciple, recording your scores and rankings during the trials, and also as notifications of kills."

"When the wooden sign determines that you have suffered fatal damage, it will trigger the protection mechanism in the secret realm and teleport you out directly."

"Disciples, please use your wooden tokens to enter the secret realm."

As soon as the elder finished speaking, the perfectly sealed yin-yang symbol on the sky slowly opened.

Yun Yici felt the wooden plaque in her hand pulling her upwards. Following the plaque's pull, she transformed into a stream of light and was sucked into it.

In the blink of an eye, the dense crowd of disciples on the open ground were all drawn into the secret realm, leaving only a few scattered elders from various sects standing in place.

Seeing that nothing had been missed, the elder in charge of opening the secret realm at Wenxin Academy closed the entrance. At the same time, ten empty water curtains appeared in the sky.

These ten water curtains correspond to the top ten disciples, but they are currently empty, indicating that everyone's scores are the same and no one is in the lead.

With nothing else to do, Feng Nian casually mingled up to Wen Fuyue and said, "I cast a divination this morning when I saw purple qi coming from the east. There's no need to worry about your disciples."

Wen Fuyue looked at the water curtain and was about to speak when her expression changed.

Nothing more than the first figure appeared on the empty water screen. The woman in the picture was heroic and valiant, and with a single shot, blood splattered everywhere.

The next moment, they saw a disciple in blue robes fall from the sky, whimpering.

Feng Nian watched with a blank expression as his disciple rolled awkwardly on the ground.

The elder from the Dan Sect next to him laughed and said, "It seems that your Bagua Sect is going to be at the bottom again this year."

So fast, not even half an hour.

The disciple in blue looked around and realized that he was the first one to be eliminated.

Upon seeing Feng Nian's recent photo, he couldn't help but cry out, "I went in and didn't even see what happened before I was stabbed right through!! Elder Feng, I didn't even have time to calculate!!"

Feng Nian gazed silently at the sky and said, "People are subject to both fortune and misfortune, alas..."

As soon as Yun Yici entered the secret realm, she felt her body sinking. Fortunately, she was extremely quick and used her spiritual power to condense a rope and throw it out of Huaichuan, successfully pulling herself out of the muddy swamp.

She clung to the dead tree that had rescued her, and just as the crisis was over, she felt the wooden plaque in her arms begin to tremble.

She picked it up and saw a line of text flashing across it: Lu Yiguang successfully killed Song Xiao.

Then, in the blank ranking list, Lu Yiguang's name appeared in the first row: Lu Yiguang, points 10.

They haven't been here long, and no one has earned any points yet. It seems that simply killing a basic disciple is worth 10 points.

Yun Yici surveyed the area and saw many withered trees standing in the damp, dark swamp. Their branches grew upwards, like the outstretched claws of a person who died with their eyes wide open, looking ferocious and terrifying.

There was no one else in sight.

Yun Yici wasn't some kind of murderous maniac, so naturally he didn't intend to specifically hunt down disciples from other sects.

She'd rather find treasure than kill someone.

As Yun Yici thought this, she casually put away the wooden plaque in her hand, but before she could put it away properly, the wooden plaque in her hand trembled again.

She initially thought it was Lu Yiguang again, but when she casually glanced down, she saw that Mu Yunjian had successfully killed Xiang Luanzhi.

Then, the name "Mu Yun Jian" was placed directly below Lu Yiguang, becoming second place.

Yun Yici's lips twitched, sensing that with Mu Yunjian's involvement, this trip to the secret realm was going to turn into a battle royale.

However, seeing the people intermittently appearing on the leaderboard, she knew she couldn't delay any longer.

Yun Yici climbed to the top of the dead tree and identified the direction of the green space.

Originally intending to turn back and leave, she suddenly saw a glittering expanse deep in the swamp, so she turned around without hesitation and walked into the depths of the swamp.

She moved with the agility of the wind, using the dead branches growing in the swamp as footholds, and soon reached the center of the swamp.

In the center of the swamp was a deep pool, with thick black fog billowing from it, giving it an ominous feel.

However, within the black mist, the petals of several lotus-shaped spirit flowers shimmered with a strange light, attracting lost travelers who had wandered into this place.

Only after Yun Yici got closer did she discover that the deep pool was full of these spiritual flowers.

Recalling her knowledge of spiritual herbs, she recognized that this should be the Fallen Flower, an ingredient for refining some kind of poison pill.

Although this flower is used as a raw material for erysipelas, it is also quite precious.

Unfortunately, the flower heads of these flowers grow on top, while the leaves that can identify their quality are hidden in the pond.

Just as Yun Yici was about to pick the flower, Huaichuan Sword Spirit suddenly said, "Don't pick the flower. What's truly precious is the water spirit pearl on the petal."

Yun Yici originally thought that the strange light on the flower was inherent to the Fallen Glory Flower, but Huai Chuan pointed it out and she noticed the abnormality of the petals.

She gently tested the water droplets with the help of the wind, and sure enough, the different colored water droplets rolled slowly on the petals, round and extremely cute.

Huai Chuan explained, "This Water Spirit Pearl is formed from the essence of the pool water, making it a hundred times more precious than these Fallen Flower Pearls."

This is because Huai Chuan recognized this item; otherwise, Yun Yi Ci would have been busy picking flowers.

Yun Yici said, "If it is so precious, I'm afraid there will be a guardian monster guarding the pool."

However, with the treasure right in front of her, turning back like that wouldn't be in line with her style.

She took out a clean porcelain bottle from her sleeve, gathered her spiritual energy in her dantian, and moved it to the edge of the pool like a gust of wind. She pressed the mouth of the porcelain bottle against the petals and pressed hard, causing the water spirit beads on the petals to roll into the porcelain bottle.

As soon as she got her hands on the Water Spirit Orb, she quickly retreated behind a withered tree to conceal her presence and observe the situation.

Yun Yici waited for ten breaths and saw nothing unusual, so she quickly followed the same method to collect a water spirit bead from a flower.
