Outside the Thousand Mountain Gate, Long Xiao Yun finally saw his benefactor, Elder Bai. However, with a single glance, Elder Bai was able to tell that the heavily injured Long Xiao Yun was indeed an expert.

"What happened? Have you not recovered from your injuries?" Elder Bai's tone was a bit reproachful. He really admired Long Xiao Yun and didn't want him to fail the smelting trial because his old wounds hadn't yet healed.

Long Xiao Yun smiled awkwardly and replied, "In reply to Elder Bai, I was feeling much better. But a few days ago, someone challenged me to a life or death match, so I got injured again!"

"A life and death challenge?" Why didn't you refuse? "Could it be that the one challenging you is your conceited little brother?" Elder Bai was very surprised. It was because he hadn't seen Long Xiaochuan in the Long family's group that he had asked this question.

A life and death challenge wasn't something an ordinary person dared to do. Unless there was a deep grudge, who would be willing to gamble their life on it? If someone with a high cultivation challenged someone with a low cultivation, the other party could simply refuse it. But if they refused, then they had to accept it!

"Hmph, I wish it was him, but he doesn't have the guts!" Long Xiao Yun turned around and pointed at the Wang family's people and said, "He did something shameful, so he went to hide at the Wang family's side. As for the person who challenged me, it was the young master of the Wang family, Wang Zuolin.

Elder Bai was even more surprised. He didn't want to care about the personal grudges of others, but he was very puzzled. How did Long Xiao Yun defeat Wang Zuolin? Elder Bai had also gone to watch the Wang Family Martial Arts Competition, especially Wang Zuolin, who had left a deep impression on him. Fifteen years old, yet he had the cultivation of a first level eighth heaven. This kind of cultivation was definitely outstanding among the younger generation in the entire Yan City!

And the last time Elder Bai had seen Long Xiao Yun, he had only just stepped into the first level fifth heaven. How could a first level fifth heaven martial artist defeat a first level eighth heaven martial artist? It wasn't impossible, but the chances were too small, unless that person was a peerless genius.

Elder Bai didn't say anything. Instead, he reached out his hand and placed it on top of Long Xiao Yun's head. He wanted to experience just what cultivation Long Xiao Yun had now. He didn't know, but with a touch, he was shocked. Elder Bai could actually feel that Long Xiao Yun's cultivation was close to the first stage of the seventh heaven. To be able to rapidly increase two small realms in just a month, this wasn't something that anyone could do.

Even though he was astonished, Elder Bai had seen a lot of things. He didn't tell what he knew. In his opinion, if Long Xiao Yun was close to the seventh level of the first stage, it was not impossible for him to defeat Wang Zuolin of the eighth stage. As for how Long Xiao Yun was able to raise his cultivation so quickly in such a short time, Elder Bai didn't want to ask any more questions.

"Long Xiao Yun, you are quite good. To be able to reach today's level, you have indeed made me look at you in a new light!" "But haste makes waste, do you understand what I mean?" Elder Bai asked.

Long Xiao Yun was a smart person, he understood what Elder Bai meant. Elder Bai was afraid that he would mislead and use a forbidden technique that he shouldn't have used. He would overdraw his spirit energy for a short period of time and raise his cultivation. This benefit was obvious, but the drawbacks were also very serious and could affect Long Xiao Yun's future development.

"Thank you for Elder Bai's concern. Long Xiao Yun understands!" Of course, Long Xiao Yun wouldn't tell them how he had raised his cultivation. This was his secret, and no one was allowed to reveal it.

"Mm. There is one more point. You are severely injured right now, and it might affect the entrance exam. Are you sure you want to participate?" If you can't pass the entry level smelting trial, then you will gain nothing. Elder Bai said bluntly.

The reason why Long Xiao Yun had spent so much time and resources to refine ten Spirit Concentrating Flowers was because of this entrance exam. How could he be willing to give it up? However, Long Xiao Yun and everyone else were not clear about what the trial was.

"Elder Bai, thank you for your concern. Since I, Long Xiao Yun, am here, there is no reason for me to retreat!" Long Juyun respectfully asked, "But, what is this entrance exam, I ask Elder Bai to give me a few pointers!"

"It's actually very simple." Elder Bai pointed at the gate of Thousand Mountain Gate and said, "Do you see the registration tables behind them? You will see a sealed space array and inside each space array, there is a puppet! The golem would adjust according to the challenger's own cultivation level, which meant that it would lower the practitioner's cultivation level by a small amount. It would be better if you were a first stage fifth heaven, then your opponent would be a first stage fourth stage. If you defeat him, then you can enter the Thousand Mountain School! "

Defeating an opponent with a cultivation level lower than his first opponent didn't seem like it would be the case, but in reality, it wasn't necessarily. The golem had lowered its cultivation by a small realm, but it was still at the peak of the next realm. Therefore, the downgrade was not very obvious. If a challenger's strength was insufficient or they were not careful, they would easily be eliminated.

For someone as heavily injured as Long Xiao Yun, he would definitely be at a disadvantage. This was why Elder Bai was worried that Long Xiao Yun would fail.

"Junior Yun, you're not in your best condition right now. If you fail, then …" Long Ziyuan didn't want to strike a blow at Long Xiao Yun, but she had to say it.

Hearing this, Long Xiao Yun was not only not nervous, he laughed out loud, "Elder sister is overthinking things. She is just a puppet, how could I, Long Xiao Yun, be afraid of a puppet? Even if he is a devil, it will not be able to stop my determination to enter the Thousand Mountain School! "

"Good, you are ambitious!" I hope you will not disappoint me! " Elder Bai left with a smile. There were also many aristocratic families that he had to take care of, so he couldn't stay in the same place forever.

After that, Long Xiao Yun and the rest joined the line to register themselves. It seemed like there were a lot of people in the plaza, but the Thousand Mountain Gate's efficiency was still quite high. After waiting for an hour, it was Long Xiao Yun's turn.

"1194, this is your number plate. Go wait over there. When the time for your survival training comes, someone will naturally call for you!" The Thousand Mountain Sect disciple in charge of registration said mechanically.

Long Xiao Yun took the plaque and went to the waiting area. From time to time, he would see people coming out of the spatial array. Some people were happy while others were sad! Those who laughed naturally passed the trial, and those who cried were naturally eliminated. And there were only half of those that cried and laughed. In other words, only half of those that entered the smelting trial had a chance of passing the smelting trial.

"One Nineteen Four! Dragon Roar Clouds! " someone shouted.

"Here, here!" Long Xiao Yun stood up.

"Second space array, I wish you good luck!" That person pointed to one of the spatial arrays and said.

Long Xiao Yun took a deep breath, silently cheering himself on before stepping into the array.
