I, the Holy Son of Yaoguang, am invincible in the world / Even my beautiful master is invincible.

Even at the very least, they wouldn't go all out.

The difficulty of the assessment will be reduced significantly.

I'm such a clever little devil.

Lin Xiao secretly felt smug.

"Humph!"

But at that moment, a series of cold snorts rang out.

"Lin Xiao, stop trying to get close to us!"

"If you want to pass this second hurdle, you must rely on your own strength."

On the first stone step, the inner disciple spoke.

He had a stern face, a cold expression, and an air of indifference.

"Yo!"

"You think you can get away with this by just showing me a little bit of attitude? You've really opened up a whole new world of possibilities!"

Lin Xiao was somewhat annoyed by the cold shoulder he received.

According to the rules, among these ten inner disciples, the one on the first level of stone steps is the weakest.

No one else spoke.

You're the weakest one, why do you have so many things to say?

Believe it or not, I'll teach you a lesson in no time.

Lin Xiao rolled up his sleeves and sneered, "If that's how you put it, then I'll show you why the flowers are so red."

"Okay!"

The inner disciple said indifferently.

"I will not change my name or surname!"

"My name is Song Cheng!"

"Then I'll see you off!" Lin Xiao said immediately.

"boom!"

At that moment, an incredibly powerful surge of Yuan energy erupted from Song Cheng's body.

The surrounding area is a radius of 100 feet.

Countless plants bowed low, and a fierce wind blew, creating a truly astonishing scene.

This power surpassed Jiang Guanyu's by countless times.

Lin Xiao felt a powerful sense of pressure descend upon him, and his expression immediately changed.

"Yuan... Yuanhai Realm, Ninth Level!"

At this moment, Zhang Hanlin exclaimed in surprise, recognizing Song Cheng's cultivation level.

"What the hell?"

Lin Xiao almost doubted that he had heard correctly.

In the past, none of the inner disciples guarding the second gate had a cultivation level exceeding the fifth level of the Yuanhai Realm.

Especially for someone like Song Cheng, who is standing on the first step.

Most of them are only at the second or third level of the Yuanhai Realm.

After all, if the cultivation level is too high, the outer disciples simply cannot last ten moves, and the assessment would lose its meaning.

But now, Song Cheng is actually at the ninth level of the Yuanhai Realm...

Lin Xiao was completely dumbfounded.

"Pfft!"

On the mountain peak, Ye Guo'er saw Lin Xiao's bewildered expression and immediately burst out laughing.

This is exactly the effect she wanted.

Although she estimated that Lin Xiao's combat strength was no match for a disciple at the fifth level of the Yuanhai Realm, she did not choose that path.

Instead, they directly assigned someone to the ninth level of the Yuanhai Realm.

That's what a surprise should be!

At this moment, everyone else also noticed Song Cheng's cultivation level.

"Hahaha……"

"Lin Xiao, do you think you can pass the test just because you've taken all the jade tokens?"

"I didn't expect it?"

"Surprised? Unexpected?"

Countless male disciples burst into gloating laughter.

Ye Pei, Xiao Shaoyang, and the others, in particular, were all smiles as they emerged from the chaotic rocky forest.

For them, this was an incredible surprise.

"Lin Xiao, let's see how arrogant you are."

"Now let's see what you're going to do. You're at the ninth level of the Yuanhai Realm! How are you going to pass the test?"

Jiang Guanyu slowly woke up from his coma, and upon seeing this scene, he almost fainted again from laughing.

"Come on! Whether you want to give me a ride or just let me see why the flowers are so red, I'll accept it."

On the stone steps, Song Cheng smiled calmly.

"..."

Lin Xiao's lips twitched slightly.

He turned to look at Liu Zhang and Zhang Hanlin, and said with a resentful expression, "You two, you can't be this cruel to me!"

"This……"

Liu Zhang and Zhang Hanlin were also somewhat bewildered.

Neither of them expected this to happen.

"If you two want to see the sun rise tomorrow, you'd better shut your mouths!"

At that moment, a voice rang in the minds of both Liu Zhang and Zhang Hanlin.

The two of them were startled.

Then one looked up at the sky, and the other looked down at the ground, ignoring Lin Xiao's questions.

It seemed that both the sky and the ground were so enchanting.

"Two deacons, we must have backbone. How can a man of seven feet tall back down so easily?"

Lin Xiao said with a righteous and awe-inspiring expression.

He had already realized something.

Unfortunately, Liu Zhang and Zhang Hanlin still ignored it.

What exactly is backbone?

There is no place more important than saving your life.

"puff!"

"Good disciple, stop struggling, just admit defeat!"

Ye Guo'er's voice entered Lin Xiao's mind.

Even through the air, Lin Xiao could feel Ye Guo'er's happiness and pride.

Lin Xiao ignored him.

He looked at the inner disciples on the second level of stone steps, seemingly intending to find a different opponent.

"Boom!"

At the same time, the inner disciple on the second stone step also revealed his cultivation level.

He was actually also at the ninth level of the Yuanhai Realm.

"..."

Lin Xiao looked at the third set of stone steps.

"boom!"

"Boom boom boom!"

The third floor, the fourth floor, the fifth floor...

Up to the tenth floor, all the inner disciples released their full cultivation.

They were all at the ninth level of the Yuanhai Realm!

Chapter 45 I'll Take on Ten of Them All by My Own

The entire room fell silent.

The ten inner disciples guarding the second gate were all at the ninth level of the Yuanhai Realm.

This has never happened before.

Song Cheng and the other ten people unleashed their full cultivation, creating a terrifying scene.

It had a tremendous impact on countless outer disciples.

Everyone was shaken to their core.
