The Soul Returns: The Peerless Imperial Daughter Begins to Abuse the Scumbag

"But," the second elder's voice suddenly became solemn and serious, "the next test will be more cruel and rigorous. I hope you can be fully prepared."

"The second round of assessment is a true test of your strength, willpower and intelligence. Only by passing it will you be qualified to enter the Cang Luo Holy Academy." The second elder continued.

The Second Elder's voice echoed like thunder throughout the waiting area, causing everyone's heartbeat to accelerate involuntarily, as exciting as the beat of a drum.

Everyone looked at each other, with worried and solemn expressions on their faces.

Although they don’t know the content of the second round of assessment now, they have already heard about how cruel it is.

Su Chenyin pursed her lips slightly. She could feel the atmosphere around her becoming more tense.

She looked around and counted the number of people present.

There were more than 200,000 people who signed up in the morning, but after the first round of screening, there are only more than 20,000 people left.

The first round of assessment was so rigorous, it seemed that the second round would undoubtedly be even more rigorous and cruel.

She took a deep breath, adjusted her mentality, and with a determined light in her eyes, she waited for the second round of assessment to begin.

The second elder's eyes were as sharp as torches, scanning everyone present, as if he wanted to see through their hearts.

Then, he finally announced the content of the second round of assessment:

"The second round of assessment has two assessment tasks, which will last for three days. You will be sent to a place called 'Phantom Spirit Secret Realm'. In the Phantom Spirit Secret Realm, spirit beasts are everywhere, and the Phantom Spirit Fruit is unique to this secret realm."

"The first task is to hunt spirit beasts. Every time you hunt a spirit beast, you will get corresponding points. The amount of points depends on the level of the spirit beast."

"A level one spirit beast is equal to one point, a level two spirit beast is equal to two points, and so on. The higher the level of the spirit beast, the higher the points, but correspondingly, the difficulty of hunting will also be greatly increased."

After hearing the words of the Second Elder, people in the waiting area began to whisper to each other, some seemed excited while others seemed nervous.

Su Chenyin's eyebrows slightly raised, and his eyes couldn't help but become fiery. Hunting spirit beasts was a good opportunity to show his strength.

"The second assessment task," the second elder's voice sounded again, drawing everyone's attention back: "You need to find the Fantasy Spirit Fruit in the Fantasy Spirit Secret Realm. Each Fantasy Spirit Fruit is worth 1,000 points."

"The most important point is that if you want to pass the second round of assessment, everyone must pick at least one complete Fantasy Spirit Fruit and bring it back. The quantity is limited, and not everyone can get it."

"Moreover, the Fantasy Spirit Fruit cannot be picked easily. Some Fantasy Spirit Fruits are guarded by spirit beasts, and some are surrounded by traps, temptations, illusions, and various tests."

"If you want to pick the Fantasy Spirit Fruit, you need to rely on your own wisdom, strength, and willpower to succeed and pick more Fantasy Spirit Fruits."

As soon as the second elder finished speaking, a buzz of discussion immediately broke out in the crowd.

Everyone's eyes widened, with different expressions.

Some looked astonished; some looked solemn; some frowned; some had a flash of determination in their eyes, and they were eager to try.

But more than that, I am both excited and nervous. After all, this second round of assessment not only tests my strength, but also my wisdom and willpower.

"I will say it again. If you want to pass the second test, everyone must pick at least one complete phantom fruit. Otherwise, even if you get a high score for killing spirit beasts, you will not be able to pass this test."

"Also, the points for killing spirit beasts and the points for obtaining phantom spirit fruits, when added together, directly affect your ranking in the assessment. The top ten will receive rich rewards."

As soon as these words were spoken, some people rubbed their hands together, with greed flashing in their eyes, and they were obviously tempted by the rich rewards.

At this time, the second elder waved his hand, a white light flashed, and a crystal clear jade plate appeared in front of everyone. This was the pass to enter the Fantasy Spirit Secret Realm.

The second elder explained: "Each of you has a jade plate with your name and unique mark on it. Every time you hunt a spirit beast, your points will be automatically recorded on it."

"At the same time, if you are in danger, you can press the red button above and you will be immediately teleported out of the secret realm. Once you are teleported out of the secret realm, you will not be able to enter again."

Su Chenyin picked up the jade token in front of him and held it tightly in his hand. It felt icy to the touch.

Looking closely, I saw my name engraved on it, two buttons, one red and one blue, and a faint light.

The second elder took out a golden scroll from his storage ring. It was engraved with intricate patterns and he slowly unfolded it.

Then, the second elder injected spiritual power and chanted an ancient spell.

suddenly!

The golden scroll emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the entire waiting area as bright as day, and everyone's attention was drawn to it.

Followed by.

The intricate patterns on the scroll seemed to come alive and began to slowly rotate, eventually converging into a giant golden gate.

"This huge golden door is the entrance to the Phantom Spirit Secret Realm. All you have to do is press the blue button on the jade token to enter the Phantom Spirit Secret Realm."

“But remember, the Phantom Spirit Secret Realm is full of dangers, so you need to be careful.” The second elder said in a deep voice: “Also, you are not allowed to kill people to steal treasures, otherwise you will be eliminated.”

Hearing this, Su Chenyin's eyes lit up. The Second Elder said that one cannot kill people to steal treasures, but he did not say that one cannot injure people to steal treasures!

Su Chenyin quietly came up with a plan in his mind, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes.

Perhaps, she could exploit this loophole in the rules.

Since you can't kill people to steal treasures, then you can use some non-special means to win by wits, and perhaps you can gain an advantage in the competition.

"Okay, go in!" The second elder gave an order, and everyone pressed the blue button on the jade token in unison.

In a moment, blue light flashed and enveloped them, and their figures gradually disappeared into the huge golden gate.

Su Chenyin took a deep breath and glanced at Jun Yijue beside him. They smiled at each other, "Jue, come on!"

Jun Yijue held her hand tightly and said softly, "Okay, Yinyin, let's go in too."

Su Chenyin nodded slightly, then turned to look at Yu Zhiyan beside him. The two smiled at each other, and then the three of them pressed the button at the same time.

In an instant, Su Chenyin's eyes were filled with light. When the light faded away, he found himself in an unfamiliar forest.

She knew that she had entered the mysterious realm of illusion.

Su Chenyin looked around vigilantly. Although the forest seemed peaceful, it actually hid countless unknown murderous intentions.

The trees are towering into the clouds, and the sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves onto the ground, creating mottled light and shadows.

The surroundings were silent and quiet, with only the occasional roar of spirit beasts coming from afar.

Su Chenyin glanced to the side, only to find that Jun Yijue, who had been holding her hand tightly, was nowhere to be seen. It seemed that he had been teleported to another place.

She gently touched the phoenix ring on her finger, transmitted her location to Jun Yijue through the phoenix ring, and then quickly collected her mind.

Then, she tied the jade token in her hand tightly around her waist to ensure that it would not be lost in the battle, and then took out a long sword from the space.
