As direct descendants of the seven major families, they naturally know more than others.

Lu Yun'er looked around and saw no one around, so she whispered to Han Feng.

"The matter about Governor Zhang...it seems that the academy deliberately suppressed it and prevented everyone from talking about it."

"Hmm... intend to suppress?"

Han Feng became more and more puzzled when he heard this.

Lu Yuner said again.

"I also heard from the elders of my family about this matter. At that time, Governor Zhang was in the limelight at Tiannan Academy, and even the younger generation of the empire's major martial arts academies, no one could compete with him.

As the pride of Tiannan College and the personal disciple of the dean, the dean intends to train Governor Zhang to be the next president of Tiannan College.

It can be heard that Governor Zhang rejected the proposal in the end and was determined to join the empire.

Originally, the college and the empire were not separated from each other, which was fine, but Governor Zhang chose to join the military.

You know, before this, Tiannan College has always been supported by the officials. The rise of Governor Zhang has also been valued by the officials, so they have increased their investment in Tiannan College.

Unexpectedly, Governor Zhang chose to join the military and became a "pioneer of the main combat faction".

In the eyes of the officials, this move was tantamount to betrayal. Some big figures got angry because of this and implicated Tiannan College.

For more than ten years since then, Tiannan College has been suppressed. It had hoped for a rise, but it has plummeted instead, and the resources of the college have also fallen to the bottom. It is only these years that have gradually improved. "

Having said that, Lu Yun'er couldn't help but sigh.

"Hey...Although Governor Zhang has now become the Governor of Xichuan Province and has made a lot of compensation to Tiannan College, but his "betrayal" back then made the teachers and students of the college who were implicated back then feel very sad.

Until now, there are still many strong men of the older generation in the college who hate Governor Zhang deeply and think he is a traitor to the college. Therefore, although the college has not erased the history of Governor Zhang, it has secretly suppressed news about him.

Now the relationship between the Governor's Mansion and Tiannan College is also very delicate. "

After listening to Lu Yuner's narration, Han Feng couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

It turns out that behind all this, there is actually a factional dispute between the "military and political circles" of the Qianlan Empire.

But no matter how famous his elder brother is in Tiannan College, or how others judge him, in Han Feng's heart, he only has respect and admiration for him!

But at this moment, Nangong Qi reminded her aloud.

"Okay, Junior Sister Lu, it's better for us to talk less about these things, let's advance to Honglu Pagoda."

Lu Yun'er stuck out her tongue when she heard the words, and didn't say any more.

Outside the Honglu Pagoda, a mentor and several instructors personally guarded in front of the pagoda gate.

To enter the Honglu Pagoda, one has to pay two hundred merit points at a time.

This price is not a small figure for ordinary intermediate disciples.

Therefore, most of the passers-by choose to enter the Honglu Pagoda because they have made considerable progress in their cultivation and want to fully test or hone their combat power.

The four of Han Feng came to the registration office together, paid the merit points directly, and then each received a jade talisman.

The mentor warned the four of them.

"After you enter the Honglu Pagoda, remember that the jade talisman cannot leave your body. Once you encounter a danger that you cannot face, you can automatically send it outside the tower by crushing the jade talisman. Otherwise, if you fall into the tower, you will be doomed!"

Unlike junior disciples, whether it is trials or various tasks, the risk factor is extremely low, and they are usually protected by mentors.

In Tiannan Academy, after being promoted to an intermediate disciple, the difficulty of all the tests will increase exponentially, and death is not uncommon, and it is inevitable.

After all, most of the students of these colleges will go to the battlefield in the future to fight for the empire.

If they went to the battlefield in the future because the college's test was too safe and simple, they would just be a bunch of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

After the four of them collected the jade talismans, they prepared to enter the Honglu Pagoda.

The entrance of Honglu Pagoda is located directly south of the first floor of the pagoda, an elliptical light group exuding crimson light.

Han Feng led the three of them, and stepped into the light group first.

The next moment, he only felt a slight sinking in his mind, with a feeling of dizziness.

After only a moment of discomfort, he opened his eyes again, and he had already appeared in a brand new space.

Chapter 552 I'm Not Here

In front of Han Feng, there was a vast red space, with endless mountains on both sides, and only a wide plain in the middle stretched forward, with no end in sight.

On the plain, the gust of wind howled, engulfed by waves of heat and swept head-on.

As soon as he entered this space, Han Feng felt a strong sense of dryness and heat.

The temperature here is much higher than the outside world, and being blown by the scorching hot and dry wind and waves on the face is like countless sparks hitting the face, and the burning sensation is doubled!

As Han Feng stepped into this place, Jin Buhuan, Nan Gongqi and Lu Yuner also appeared not far from him one after another.

Although it was the first time for the three of them to enter the Honglu Pagoda, they had already collected the information of the Honglu Pagoda in advance, so they naturally knew better than Han Feng.

Nangong Qi stretched out her tender white palm to block the hot wave blowing in front of her, and said to Han Feng.

"This is the first floor of the Honglu Pagoda, the "Sea of ​​​​Red Fire", which tests the endurance and profundity of the spirit warriors.

We can only move forward along this plain, at the end, there is a teleportation point for the next level. "

Unlike Han Feng, who has practiced body training techniques, his body is so strong that he can fully withstand the temperature here.

When the three of them entered the sea of ​​fire area of ​​Chilian, they felt hot and unbearable, and their bodies were strongly uncomfortable. At this moment, they released a light mask of spiritual power on the body surface to block the erosion of the heat wave.

Every second they stayed here, the three of them would consume more spiritual power, and they immediately decided to move forward together, heading for the lower floor of the Honglu Pagoda.

However, everyone was about to leave.

Not far away, another figure flickered and was teleported into Honglu Pagoda.

Four figures appeared one after another, and it was the four of Murong Cheng who followed Han Feng and others into the Honglu Pagoda.

When the two sides met again, Murong Cheng sneered at Han Feng.

"Junior Brother Han, since it's such a coincidence, let's meet again."

Seeing the four people following in, the faces of Jin Buhuan and others changed slightly, while Han Feng glanced at them coldly and said to the three people beside him.

"let's go!"

Immediately, the three of them set off directly, heading all the way from the plain between the mountains on both sides.

Seeing Han Feng and the others set off, Murong Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly.

"Then let's go too."

Both sides set off at the same time.

At first, everything was normal, and the two teams kept moving forward at a constant speed, but as time passed, everyone gradually realized that something was wrong.

This sea of ​​red training flames seems to be filled with a strange energy, which can actually burn the spiritual power in everyone's body, doubling the speed of spiritual power consumption.

Even if Han Feng didn't use his spiritual power, his spiritual power was still evaporating.

Not only that, the farther forward, the higher the surrounding temperature, and the hot wave that was blowing towards him became more violent.

"Hot", "dry" and strong "wind resistance" not only quickly consume the spiritual power of the passers-by, but also test their physical strength and perseverance.

After only one stick of incense had passed, the two daughters, Nangong Qi and Lu Yun'er, were already dripping with sweat on their foreheads, and they were slightly tired.

This is not because the strength of the two is too weak, but because part of their combat power comes from spiritual power.

In this case, their mental strength can't play a big role at all. On the contrary, their weakness of a little lack of physical strength is undoubtedly exposed.

In this case, the gold is not exchanged, but it is stronger.

Possessing the outstanding talent of the ninth-rank Jin Lingmai, although Jin Buhuan only has the cultivation base of the fourth-rank Chen rank, his spiritual power is far from being comparable to spiritual warriors of the same rank in terms of quality and strength.

At this moment, he was surrounded by golden light, resisting the attack of the heat wave, except that his lips were a little dry, but his steps were smooth.

As for Han Feng, let alone.

Although Han Feng also condensed a layer of spiritual power shield on his body at the moment, he was just putting on a show to avoid being too conspicuous in Honglu Pagoda.

With the temperature and wind resistance here, it does not constitute the slightest threat to his tyrannical physique.

Murong Cheng's group of four, whose progress was similar to that of everyone else, also showed a gap at this moment.

Among the four, the weakest is Liu Xiuwen. This person only has a two-star cultivation base at the Chen level, and his foundation is very vain.

At this point, he was already sweating profusely, panting heavily, and the spiritual power shield on his body was already unstable.

If it wasn't for his elder brother, Liu Xuan, who was on the sidelines to help him, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to hold on any longer.

Among the four, Liu Xuan and Murong Cheng were able to handle tasks with ease, without the slightest discomfort, while Tian Fengxiu was obviously weaker than the two, and it was also a little difficult at the moment.

The two teams moved forward and walked for a quarter of an hour.

The air became hotter and hotter, like being in a sea of ​​flames, and the terrifying scorching waves made an ear-splitting whistling sound.

In Murongcheng's team, Liu Xiuwen finally couldn't hold on anymore, crushed the jade talisman in his hand, his body turned into a red light, and was teleported out.

But at this moment, on Han Feng's side, Nangong Qi and Lu Yun'er were already sweating profusely, walking with difficulty, even Jin Buhuan was breathing slightly short of breath, and began to reach out to wipe his sweat.

Seeing this situation, Han Feng frowned, and simply stepped out and stood in front of everyone.

"You all stand behind me and line up!"

After hearing the words, the three were slightly taken aback, and then understood what Han Feng meant.

They hesitated for a while, and seeing that Han Feng was still looking very relaxed at the moment, they followed behind him as promised.

Lu Yun'er was ranked second, Nangong Qi was third, and Jin Buhuan was last.

Han Feng walked in the forefront, withstood the violent heat wave, and the pressure of the three people behind was greatly reduced, and the forward speed was also greatly increased.

Everyone continued to move forward, and encountered some other passers-by on the way, and the situation of these people was not easy.

Some people still gritted their teeth and persisted, but some couldn't stand the blazing heat, crushed the jade talisman, and withdrew from Honglu Pagoda.

In this way, another half an hour passed, when the surrounding temperature had risen to an astonishing level, and the wind was howling like thunder, which made many people unable to bear it.

In the crimson and dim space ahead, finally a group of light shining bright red light appeared!

"Ah...that's the entrance to the next floor!"

Behind Han Feng, he poked his head out and tried his best to look at Lu Yun'er in front of him, shouting excitedly at this moment.

Nangong Qi and Jin Buhuan at the rear were also refreshed after hearing the words.

I'm finally leaving this ghost place.

However, it didn't take long for everyone to be happy, and they walked forward for a certain distance, and the scene in front of them made them all change their faces.

I saw that the original flat plain road had not yet reached the entrance of the second floor, but it was interrupted ahead of time.

Instead, there was a piece of magma that was billowing green smoke, roaring heat, and filled with red light!

These fiery magma, like a rolling river, cut off the road ahead.

Jin Buhuan came to the edge of the magma and looked around. A heat wave accompanied by the pungent smell of sulfur nearly knocked him over, and his face was flushed red from the scorching.

"Damn... there is still magma in this shit, how can I get over it? Is it possible that I can swim through it?"

Jin was so angry that he cursed.

However, Han Feng glanced at the surface of the magma, and found that in the magma pool shrouded in green smoke, there were many protruding stone pillars, scattered all over the magma pool.

Obviously, the passers-by need to use these stone pillars to pass through the magma, which is similar to the crossing piles under the Linghe Waterfall.

However, the difference is that if you stumble and fall on the river crossing pile, at most you will choke on a few saliva.

And there is high-temperature magma below, and if it falls, there will be no bones left. Rao Hanfeng thinks that his body is tough, so he is determined not to be contaminated by this magma.

Although, with the skill of a spirit warrior, it is not difficult to jump up these stone pillars with precision.

However, the temperature above the magma was extremely high, almost reaching the peak of the sea of ​​flames, and ordinary Chen-level spirit warriors couldn't bear it for too long. Once they stepped onto the stone pillar, they had to pass quickly.

At the same time, in addition to the high temperature above the magma, there are also extremely strong heat waves, and green smoke obstructing the line of sight. It is absolutely difficult to pass through safely and quickly.

And those who were also blocked by this checkpoint were not only Han Feng and others, but the passers-by who entered the Honglu Pagoda before them, and the three people from Murong City who arrived after them, also stopped here.

Everyone looked at the last difficulty of the sea of ​​fire in Chilian, each hesitating whether to set out to break through.
