Chapter 15. Trial
Time flies like a horse, the days and months pass by like a shuttle.

As the days go by, Li Ye and his people are growing continuously.

It’s time for the annual upgrade assessment.

In order to advance from the beginner class to the intermediate class, and from the intermediate class to the advanced class in the Zhenhun Street Genius Class, students need to take assessments and pass the assessments to successfully advance.

The assessment is to pass the first three levels of the Demon Suppression Tower on Dead Soul Island.

The Demon Suppression Tower is a building located in the center of the Dead Soul Island. Inside is another space with a total of nine floors, filled with evil spirits, fierce beasts and monsters.

The nine-story Demon Suppression Tower, the higher the level, the stronger the evil spirits inside. The first level is mostly evil spirits of the level of life, and the ninth level even has evil spirits comparable to the level of the Great Scorch.

The last three layers are completely different from the first six layers. In the last three layers, especially the last two layers, there are many Scorch-level evil spirits, and even Super Scorch-level super evil spirits.

Even for students in the gifted class to graduate, they only need to pass the seventh level.

Early in the morning, all the students of the beginner class gathered in front of the Demon-Suppressing Tower, and Yan Xinyue told everyone what to pay attention to when entering the Demon-Suppressing Tower.

"The Demon Suppression Tower is full of evil spirits. You need to kill enough evil spirits and find a way to the next level. If you pass the third level, you will pass the assessment."

"Well then, I wish you all good luck in the exam and good results!"

……

The Demon-Suppressing Tower is as black as ink and towers into the clouds, standing like a giant in the center of Dead Soul Island.

Students from the Genius Class and the Junior Class entered the Demon-Suppressing Tower one after another.

Soon, only a few instructors were left in the originally bustling square. Teacher Yan watched the students until everyone entered the Dead Soul Island, then murmured in a low voice: "I hope everyone can pass smoothly."

Li Ye walked into the door and suddenly felt dizzy. When he opened his eyes again, he was in another world.

The sky here is gloomy, with dark clouds covering the sun, and the whole space looks gray.

As soon as Li Ye stepped into this world, countless evil spirits with scarlet light in their eyes moved and surrounded Li Ye. They were like hungry wolves that smelled blood, opened their mouths, showing their sharp teeth and bloody mouths, and let out bloodthirsty howls.

Li Ye quietly watched the evil spirits approaching him from all directions, but he did not panic. When countless evil spirits jumped high and pounced on him, he held the black gilded sword case in his left hand, held the hilt in his right hand, and drew out the Seven Star Dragon Spring hidden in the sword case.

In an instant, golden light appeared, light golden sword energy spread everywhere, and terrifying energy spread around with Li Ye as the center, suffocating like a tide.

The evil spirits around them dissipated in the golden tide like sand blown away by a hurricane.

"A bunch of evil spirits waiting to be killed, not knowing whether to live or die. Let me free you."

Li Ye put the Seven-Star Dragon Spring sword back into the sword case and patted the non-existent dust on his robe.

Li Ye continued to move forward, and along the way, countless evil spirits attacked him.

Li Ye also summoned Li Cunxiao, which was both a test of his own combat experience and a confidence in his own strength.

Just a bunch of ants. Even if Li Cunxiao was not summoned, Li Ye could destroy them with just a wave of his hand!
He vaguely saw a beam of light in the distance to the northwest, and his intuition told him that this should be related to entering the next level of space.

He continued to move towards the pillar of light. There were evil spirits everywhere along the way, but they were basically of the same level and posed no threat to him.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally reached the beam of light.

Countless evil spirits were crawling near the light column. In front of the light column, there was a huge evil spirit with a green face and fangs, four arms, and a height of more than ten meters. He was wearing black armor, and his dark green explosive muscles were exposed in the places not covered by the armor. He held a huge axe in his hand.

"It seems that this is the leader of the evil spirits here. No, he is only at the peak of the Black Rope level. It seems that this first level is really a gift."

When the evil spirit leader saw Li Ye not far away, he roared excitedly, raised the giant axe in his hand high, and ordered all the evil spirits to charge towards Li Ye.

The evil spirits, who had no consciousness but only bloodthirsty killing instincts, immediately rushed towards Li Ye. Looking at the army of evil spirits rushing towards him, Li Ye showed a cruel smile, "Then I have no choice but to let you all go!"

"Yao Guang Jue"

The dazzling golden light rushed towards the huge army of evil spirits. In an instant, countless evil spirits were reduced to ashes in the golden light.

This kind of large-scale destructive attack still consumes a lot of spiritual energy, but with the help of the Seven Star Jue and spiritual power training, Li Ye’s spiritual power reserves far exceed those of the spirit hosts of the same level in Hell.

In addition, the Yaoguang Jue comes from the power of the Seven Stars, which is naturally able to restrain evil spirits. With the blessing of "Pojun", its lethality to evil spirits is astonishing.

It can be said that he is the real evil spirit nemesis. This kind of evil spirit tide with large numbers and low levels is simply his favorite.

"It would be great if we could have more of these evil spirit waves. It would be a great gift." Li Ye had a little hope in his heart.

When the evil spirit leader saw that Li Ye had destroyed the evil spirit army but was still standing there motionless and grinning foolishly, he felt extremely insulted and let out an "evil spirit roar". Only then did Li Ye remember that there was still a big evil spirit here.

"Saury, I almost forgot about you. I'm here to take you on your way."

After saying that, Li Ye pulled out the Seven Star Dragon Spring, and his whole body turned into a shadow. Before the evil spirit leader could react, he saw his own body in a dizzying moment, but this body was headless.

Li Ye cut off the head of the evil spirit leader with a sword, and inserted the Seven Star Dragon Spring back into the sword case. Without saying anything more, he turned around and walked into the column of light.

At the same time, outside the Demon Suppression Tower, a voice rang out: "Congratulations to student Li Ye for completing the first level of the assessment and entering the second level of the assessment. The current score is 34,560."

The instructors who had been paying attention to the situation in the Demon Suppression Tower froze in shock, and the same thought emerged in their minds at the same time: "So fast? Such a high score?"

"His speed and performance in the first level are both better than Xiang Kunlun's."

"He is even younger than Xiang Kunlun was back then."

……

Even though the instructors outside were extremely shocked, Li Ye inside the tower didn't know about it. Even if he did, he had no time to care.

Li Ye is frantically killing evil spirits in the Demon-Suppressing Tower, because killing evil spirits can earn points.

On the first level, he saw people killing one after another.

Now I come to the second level, just like the first level, I start a killing spree and harvest evil spirits crazily.

The evil spirits on the second floor are stronger than those on the first floor, and there are many more black rope-level evil spirits.

However, it was harmless and did not pose a threat to Li Ye. It could only slow down his harvesting speed slightly. However, the stronger the evil spirit, the more points it was worth.

The points obtained in the assessment can be exchanged for contribution points, and ten points can be exchanged for one contribution point.

Moreover, the top three in each level of assessment and the top three in this assessment can receive additional rewards.

I heard from Teacher Yan that the reward is very valuable.

Even if you break the record, you can get additional rewards.

Thinking of this, he became full of energy.

"I'm not doing this for the so-called reward. After all, eradicating evil spirits is the glorious duty and responsibility of every spirit host."

Li Ye said silently in his heart.
