“Fellow Taoist, you’re very courageous and have a bright future!”

Lu Zijia took the necklace. After confirming that there was no problem, she took out the mid-level Mystic Rank spiritual sword she promised and threw it to the black-robed man directly.

The black-robed man checked the spiritual sword. After confirming that there was no problem, he cupped his hands at Lu Zijia and immediately left quickly.

From the beginning to the end, the black-robed man didn’t say a word.

Most cultivators knew that Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan had a lot of flags on them, so many people looked at them from time to time.

When the black-robed man appeared, they noticed him immediately.

Seeing that the black-robed man gave Lu Zijia a necklace that looked good and exchanged it for a mid-level Mystic Rank spiritual sword, they immediately couldn’t stay calm anymore.

Those who knew about it couldn’t help feeling regretful.

They thought that even if they took the risk to snatch Shi Shuangshuang’s necklace, Lu Zijia would never really reward them with a mid-level Mystic

Rank spiritual sword. They didn’t expect… Lu Zijia to be so straightforward!

That was a mid-level Mystic Rank spiritual weapon! A spiritual weapon that even a Golden Core expert would be tempted by. How could Lu Zijia give it to her so readily?

This… This didn’t make sense at all!

The two Golden Core mentors hiding in the dark couldn’t help looking at each other when they saw this.

They thought to themselves, Lu Zijia might be the junior of a refining master. Otherwise, how could she possibly give a mid-stage Mystic Rank spiritual weapon to someone without batting an eyelid?

Indeed, it was good to have a master of techniques as one’s backer!

After exclaiming, the two Golden Core mentors appeared and announced the end of the assessment.

After one mentor announced that the assessment was over, all the cultivators rushed to the foot of the mountain range to gather, waiting for the results of whether they were accepted by Hongtian Academy.

More than two hours later, the group of more than 10,000 people gathered.

The one who announced the results was Instructor Feng, who explained the rules to them yesterday. And beside Instructor Feng, a huge jade stone tablet that was three meters tall had appeared at some point.

“Now, take out your information wooden token and raise it up high.”

Instructor Feng used his spiritual power to transmit his voice clearly to every cultivator present.

Hearing that, the ten thousand disciples participating in the assessment all did as they were told, including Lu Zijia and Mu Tianyan.

Instructor Feng glanced at everyone before flying his hands and casting unfathomable spells on the huge jade stone tablet at the side.

As time passed, Lu Zijia felt that the information wooden tablet in her hand seemed to be a bit hot.

Instructor Feng quickly cast more than ten Dharma spells and said to everyone, “Alright, take out the flags you obtained.”

Everyone did as they were told again.

The moment everyone took out the flags, they flew towards the huge jade tablet as if they were alive and entered it.

Obviously, the jade tablet was a spiritual weapon.

After all the flags entered the jade tablet, names quickly appeared on the huge jade tablet, and behind each name was a number.

And the first place was Lu Zijia’s name.

As for Mu Tianyan, he was ranked at 1000 places, and he had only ten flags!

The cultivators who knew how terrifying Mu Tianyan’s strength was found this outcome very unbelievable.

Then, he saw the number behind Lu Zijia’s name and immediately understood.

Lu Zijia had been with Mu Tianyan almost all the time. Many of Lu Zijia’s more than 6,000 intermediate flags must belong to Mu Tianyan..
