The Spirit Mountain Sect's unspoken rule was that no one was allowed to take first place in three trials in a row. The first and second trials could be affected by operation, but the third trial couldn't be affected by operation.

Thus, if one wanted to control the rankings, they could only do so in the first and second trials. Although the first and second trials took different forms of examinations, the core targets of the tests were the same: The stronger the practitioner, the stronger their body, the tougher their willpower, the higher their rank; The second exam took on the will and state of mind of the cultivator. The simpler and more determined one was, the higher their rank was.

However, these two types of tests could easily cause a person to quickly emerge from the masses, and that was: a warrior!

One had trained in martial arts since he was a child, had tempered his body from a young age, and could withstand the tribulations of three to nine degrees of cold and suffering.

Therefore, the more powerful a warrior was, the easier it was for them to obtain the best rankings in the first and second trials, and the easier it was for strong people to appear in the first and second trials.

Otherwise, if this Consecutive Champion was another talented genius with great potential in the third stage, then the Spirit Mountain Sect would have to give up the initiative. If this person really came, then the Spirit Mountain Sect would not be able to do anything anymore.

Where would the Spirit Mountain Sect put their face?

Sun Boyi didn't fear being seen through by others at all. This was because controlling the rankings guaranteed that no one would win the championships. This was what he should have done in the first place. Compared to his lower cultivation level older brother Sun Bohun, his younger brother Sun Boyi could be said to be a talent for cultivation.

Sun Boyi was full of confidence, Ouyang Xiu naturally could not say anything.

Sun Boyi pointed at Li Chengfeng and said, "Look, I was just playing a little trick on you. This kid has already fallen into the sea of clouds, he's probably going to fall into the sea of clouds soon!" I don't think he'll make it through the second test. If we can't get through this, and if I find another excuse to not let him participate in the third trial, then everything will come to an end and he will be chased down the mountain. No one can criticize him! "

Senior sister Ouyang nodded slightly when she saw Li Chengfeng slowly descending through the clouds, "I didn't realize that this kid's mind was quite strong. He was able to hold on for so long."

Sun Boyi smiled and said, "It's just a matter of time."

Senior Ouyang turned her gaze onto another person as she asked, "So this is the Zhan Clan's Fourth Young Master?"

Unlike the others, he took almost every step with a very steady pace. Although his speed was relatively slow, his figure was extremely stable, and at most, his body would sometimes sway slightly when he stepped on the ground, but he quickly regained his balance and steadily walked forward.

A look of admiration appeared in Senior Ouyang's eyes as she said, "As expected, after a famous sect, their will is firm and they are different from ordinary people. Truly extraordinary!"

Sun Boyi ingratiatingly smiled and said, "This is just a pig among dragons, phoenixes, dogs, and pigs, yet already so impressive. I wonder just what sort of heavenly figure that dragon and phoenix are?"

Senior Sister Ouyang said faintly, "The Zhan Clan has dominated the northwest region for hundreds of years, and they are now so deeply rooted that they naturally aren't ordinary people."

Sun Boyi smiled and said, "Senior-apprentice Sister Ouyang, do you think that the Zhan Family's Fourth Young Master will be the champion of this second trial?"

Senior Ouyang slightly nodded her head and said, "It looks like that's the case. After all, he is the closest to the finish line."

While the two of them were talking, Li Chengfeng suddenly changed his direction while they were trapped in the illusion.

In the illusion world, the stork that was swallowed by Li Chengfeng raised its head and roared. Its roar shook the earth, and suddenly, a golden light shot out from its stomach.

Its two claws were desperately trying to grab onto its abdomen, but more and more gold light kept shooting out from its abdomen. Soon after, the stork's body suddenly exploded, its flesh and blood disintegrating into countless pieces, and a golden human figure appeared in its abdomen. This person's entire body was releasing a dazzling golden light, extremely glaring, almost covering the entire world, and as he stood in the middle of the gold light, his appearance could not be clearly seen, only the outline of his body and the golden pupil in front of his forehead was emitting a blazing gold light.

At this moment, the golden pupil was slowly closing and the golden light was dissipating. When the golden light faded away, this person revealed his appearance. It was Li Chengfeng.

Li Chengfeng opened his eyes and looked around in a daze. He noticed that the beautiful woman in white dress, the terrifying devil stork, his mother's figure, and the beautiful birdsong garden had all disappeared. At this moment, there was only a door with a glimmer of white light standing in front of him.

Li Chengfeng walked towards the main door. At this moment, his path was smooth and he was no longer obstructed. In the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Li Chengfeng had already arrived at the door. He saw that the door only had the frame of the door, standing in the middle of the sea of clouds.

Li Chengfeng thought for a while, then he stepped forward and disappeared into the doorframe.

Once through the door, Li Chengfeng suddenly felt empty space beneath his feet, and his body fell down. Li Chengfeng turned pale with fright, but before he could react, he fell to the ground.

Just as Li Chengfeng fell to the ground, Sun Boyi and Ouyang Xiu heard the crisp sound of a bell ringing above the clouds, and their faces immediately changed.

"Someone has reached the end?" Senior Ouyang's eyes widened as she cried out, "That's impossible! The fourth young master of Zhan Clan is still here!"

Right now, Zhan Qi was still forty to fifty meters away from the finish line, but he was still steadily moving forward.

Senior Ouyang and Sun Boyi looked at each other in dismay. Senior Ouyang said, "Could it be that we missed out on the others?"

Sun Boyi subconsciously looked towards the direction of Li Chengfeng, only to find that there was no one there. Sun Boyi smiled and said, "It shouldn't be that kid."

Senior Sister Ouyang said, "This year, there will be a few with decent talent. I wonder who will be the first to enter the second trial?"

Sun Boyi apologetically smiled and said, "Senior apprentice sister Ouyang, you will know once you go with me."

Their figures flashed and disappeared into thin air. When they reappeared, they were in an incomparably large stone house.

At the center, there was a stone platform that was very tall and very tall. At the top, there was a chair that could not be seen clearly, but it gave people a feeling that it was very imposing. On the other side of the stone pillar, there were two stone pillars on the left and right side of the room.

Underneath these five stone pillars were the stone steps of the first step, which were divided into seven steps. Each step was circular in shape and had distinct levels.

At the bottom of the stone steps was a circular field. In the center of the field, there was a cauldron that three people were carrying. Inside the cauldron, there were nine joss sticks of varying lengths.

There was a man lying under the cauldron with a piece of cloth covering his eyes. He was getting up in a daze. He stretched out his hand to pull off the piece of cloth and looked around in a daze.

When Sun Boyi and Senior Ouyang saw this, they were dumbfounded.

If this wasn't Li Chengfeng, then who was it?
