Strength Test

How could the Heavenly Border test be so easy to pass?

However, what Shen Fei didn't know was that in a short very time, the Xiao Ning'er who was practicing the Wind Lightning Winged Dragon technique was already not the same as the Xiao Ning'er from the past. After soul forming, her cultivation had soared leaps and bounds. At the same time, Xiao Ning'er had the support of the whole Winged Dragon Family. The current Xiao Ning'er could no longer be compared with the past her.

"Talk after you even get the qualifications to enter Heavenly Sacred Border," Shen Fei coldly laughed. Only the most outstanding students could enter the Heavenly Sacred Border.

'Heavenly Sacred Border!' Nie Li lightly smiled. It was exactly the place that he wanted to go. In his previous life, he had once returned to the destroyed Glory City, into the Heavenly Sacred Border. The things hidden inside were something an ordinary person couldn't imagine. Therefore, Nie Li had to get the qualifications to enter the Heavenly Sacred Border!

"Be at ease, Xiao Ning'er will pass the qualifications to enter the Heavenly Sacred Border. Just wait and see. Now scram!" Nie Li coldly said. A person like Shen Fei didn't even deserve to be considered an opponent for Nie Li. Nie Li's ultimate motive was not a descendent of the Sacred Family, but the whole Sacred Family itself.

Shen Fei's gaze fell onto Nie Li, his mind suddenly flashed with a wicked idea. He coldly smiled and said, "Nie Li, do you dare? The Sacred Family will organize a genius martial arts tournament. At that time, we will also invite the Heavenly Marks Family. You and me, to the death, no complaints. Do you dare?"

Despicable! The surrounding onlooking students couldn't help secretly cursing Shen Fei. He was a student from the Genius class and was already seventeen years old. His cultivation had already reached Silver rank, whereas it was still unknown if Nie Li had even reached 1-star Bronze rank. Shen Fei actually suggested to have a battle to the death with Nie Li, he was simply trying to kill Nie Li!

Even if Nie Li refused, no one would say a thing.

"So? Do you dare? If you don't, then you're just a coward!" Shen Fei disregarded the opinions of the surrounding onlookers and said, coldly laughing.

Xiao Ning'er suddenly tensed up, looking at Nie Li. Nie Li lightly smiled, squeezing Xiao Ning'er's delicate hand a little, giving her a reassuring look.

"Since you already challenged me, why wouldn't I dare?" said Nie Li, laughing loudly, covered with confidence.

The surrounding onlookers could never have imagined that Nie Li would actually accept Shen Fei's challenge, because Shen Fei was a Silver ranked student from the genius class. Was Nie Li crazy?

Seeing Nie Li's confident look, Xiao Ning'er relaxed. His confidence convinced her that nothing was too difficult for Nie Li. Nie Li had a mysterious strength, to be able to resolve any problem.

"This is what you agreed to, so don't back out. I'll wait for you at the martial arts tournament hosted by my Sacred Family!" Shen Fei snorted. His eyes were as sharp as a knife, as they swept passed Nie Li and Xiao Ning'er. 'I'll let you two enjoy your affair for the moment. Once you're defeated by me, I'll enjoy your pleas for mercy before I kill you in front of Xiao Ning'er at that time!' he thought sinisterly.

Shen Fei turned around and left. Shen Yue, who was not far away from his brother, also fiercely stared at Nie Li, but soon left and followed behind Shen Fei.

After quite a while, Ye Ziyun returned. Looking at Nie Li, she asked with concern, "I heard that you accepted Shen Fei's challenge."

"It's nothing, I have my plans. Seeing how you care for me, I'm feeling touched," Nie Li chucked.

Ye Ziyun couldn't help being speechless. She angrily stomped her feet and said, "Who says that I care about you with your unrequited feelings? Shen Fei has already long reached Silver rank. He's at least a 2-star Silver rank Demon Spiritualist. Do you really think that you can beat him?"

Although she said that she didn't care, the truth was that Ye Ziyun was still concerned.

"We'll see at that time," Nie Li shrugged.

"You definitely accepted that challenge because of Xiao Ning'er. It seems to me that your feelings for Xiao Ning'er are real. Better be good to her, otherwise, I won't let you off," Ye Ziyun coldly snorted. She didn't know why, but when she said these words, she sighed in her heart.

'Since you like Xiao Ning'er so much, why do you still come after me?' she thought, recalling the incident in the underground palace. She felt a little indignent in her heart. Nie Li had seen everything that he shouldn't have seen.

"Shen Fei's character is garbage. I can't stand for such a kind girl like Xiao Ning'er to be in that guy's hands. That's why I helped her out!" Nie Li swiftly explained. He only had a good impression of Xiao Ning'er, but no matter how good the impression was, it still couldn't be compared to the destiny that Ye Ziyun and him shared together.

"You're not any better," Ye Ziyun pouted.

Hearing Ye Ziyun's words, Nie Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry. In his previous life, he had experienced far too much. His hands had been drenched with the blood of countless lives. He had done a lot of things that went against his conscience. However, even so, he was not a despicable person like Shen Fei.

"You don't need to explain it to me. It's not like I care," Ye Ziyun's brows slightly twitched, and she snorted.

In the front of others, Ye Ziyun was indifferently elegant. She would distance herself thousands of miles away from others. That little temper of hers proved that she was concerned about him. Nie Li crossed his arms, taking a deep breath. The world was too beautiful. He enjoyed his current life. Compared to the endless drifting and killing in his previous life, school life was much more peaceful. He was disgusted and annoyed by despicable people like Shen Yue, Shen Fei, and Chu Yuan; he teased beauties like Ye Ziyun and Xiao Ning'er, life was really comfortable.

Seeing Nie Li's complacent look, Ye Ziyun felt angry, and asked "What are you laughing at?"

"Am I laughing? I'm not!" Nie Li said, trying to control his laughter.

Ye Ziyun felt depressed, Nie Li was too annoying, she felt like giving Nie Li a good bash. However, not knowing why, although she hated Nie Li, she still liked being together with him. Perhaps it was because she hadn't had a true friend for a long time now. Being together with Nie Li felt comfortable, without the need for restraint.

Seeing Nie Li and Ye Ziyun talking, with Goddess Ziyun seeming to be throwing her temper at Nie Li, made a group of boys simply crazy with jealousy. That charming look of hers caused others looking at her to be dazed. Nie Li had just grabbed Goddess Ning'er's waist earlier on, and now he was teasing Goddess Ziyun.

Why did all the good things get taken away by Nie Li? The heavens were being unfair!

Du Ze, Lu Piao, and bunch felt a little envious of Nie Li, however, they were not jealous in their hearts. Nie Li was their brother, a lifetime brother of theirs. Du Ze, and Lu Piao were chatting with the students from their class. Du Ze's unique leadership characteristic had already attracted lots of commoners to follow Du Ze.

After a moment, Shen Xiu walked over, swinging her hips. Her gaze swept passed the group of students and fell onto Nie Li. Her eyes turned sharp when they fell on him.

Shen Xiu said in a poor tone, "The yearly examination for our class is starting soon, everyone follow me!"

"Teacher Shen Xiu, as you said before, if I were to reach 1-star Bronze rank, you'll resign from the school. Is this still valid?" Nie Li suddenly talked, laughed and continued, "If you were to apologize to me, beg me to cancel our bet, maybe I can consider it."

'Are you trying to trick me? I'm not so easy!' Shen Xiu thought, snorting and said, "I, Shen Xiu keep my word. If you reach 1-star Bronze rank, I'll resign."

Nie Li shrugged and said, "Then you'd better hurry up and get your resignation letter done."

"Talk after your test shows 1-star Bronze rank," Shen Xiu snorted, bringing all the students in the class, walking towards the test hall.

There were several thousands of students in the Holy Orchid Institute. Everyone taking their turn for the test took some time.

Along the way, lots of student began talking among themselves.

"I heard that in the Demon Spiritualist Apprentice class, there are two people whose soul force have reached 3-star bronze rank! The Demon Spiritualist Apprentice class is marvellous!"

"That's a given. Many of them have been cultivating for one or two more years than us."

"I've even heard that in the Inscription Pattern Apprentice class, there is one whose strength is at least 2-star Bronze rank!"

A bunch of students wearing different clothes were busy discussing.

...

Within the Holy Orchid Institute, there were six apprentice classes. As indicated by their different names, the things they were good at were also different. However, kids were always changing. It wasn't surprising that people would adjust their cultivation direction. Among all the classes, the Demon Spiritualist Apprentice class had the most attention because this was where geniuses were most concentrated.

According to his previous life's development, Xiao Ning'er and Ye Ziyun would enter the Demon Spiritualist Apprentice class and Nie Li would remain in the Fighter Apprentice class. Although he had done his best to train, his cultivation had still risen very slowly, close to no advancement.

But this life was not the same as his previous one. Not only Xiao Ning'er, and Ye Ziyun, but even Du Ze, Lu Piao, and the trio had had their fates changed.

"The people from the Fighter Apprentice class are here!"

"This is the class that has the most garbage? It's said that among them, there are lots of people with only red soul realm!"

"Can red soul realm still cultivate?"

"However, I heard that there are a few whose talents are not bad, soon reaching Bronze rank. For example, Ye Ziyun and Xiao Ning'er!"

Hearing these two names, several boys' eyes lit up. No matter where it was, beautiful girls were still the center of attention for everyone. Although their age was still young, they had been cultivating since they were young, therefore, their sensitive minds already knew many things.

Among the Fighter Apprentice class, the two most beautiful girls were without a doubt Ye Ziyun and Xiao Ning'er. The boys in the Demon Spiritualist Apprentice class all showed anticipation in their eyes. If everything went well, Ye Ziyun and Xiao Ning'er would enter the Demon Spiritualist Apprentice class. At that time, they would have plenty of opportunities to get close to them.

Seeing those students from the Demon Spiritualist Apprentice class with eyes filled with anticipation, Nie Li couldn't help but to lightly laugh. In this lifetime, they would be disappointed. Because no matter if it was Ye Ziyun or Xiao Ning'er, they would both enter the Demon Spiritualist Genius class.

Under Shen Xiu's lead, the Fighter Apprentice class entered into the test hall. On a stage far away, the school's higher ups were overlooking the whole test.

"First round, the strength test. Who will be first?" One of the teachers asked towards Shen Xiu.

Shen Xiu looked at all the students in the Fighter Apprentice class. Shen Yue walked out and proudly said, "I'll be first!"

After speaking, he walked towards the towering Strength Testing Stone.
