"Since everyone is here, why not start?" Gu Jingqing suggested to the Junior Sect Master.
Emperor Beichen nodded slightly, his noble and handsome face exuding authority. "The qualification assessment for the assessment competition starts now!"
With Emperor Beichen's words, the elders immediately understood and their gaze fell upon the group of cultivators preparing to enter the assessment formation.
"To obtain the qualification to participate in the assessment competition, you need to pass the assessment formation. As long as you can last the time it takes for three incense sticks to burn, you will qualify. If you fail to last beyond three incense sticks, you will lose your qualification."
"In this assessment formation, you will be in the midst of a mountain range, and various demonic beasts will appear. You will need to handle them on your own."
"Once you die in the illusion, you will automatically exit the assessment formation. Does anyone have any questions?"
The elder succinctly explained the situation of the assessment formation. Many foreign cultivators were unfamiliar with what the assessment formation actually was, so the introduction was necessary.
"No!"
Everyone shook their heads. They had obtained a certain level of understanding about the assessment formation from various sources before, but they had never truly experienced it themselves.
"Now, five people at a time, enter the assessment formation!"
As the elder's words fell, the five cultivators at the forefront hesitated for a moment before walking into the assessment formation.
The elder placed a spiritual stone next to the assessment formation, and then the formation was activated.
Everyone saw a burst of light enveloping the five individuals within the formation, and from their facial expressions, it was clear that they had entered the illusion.
"The situation inside the assessment formation can be quite brutal and violent. I was quite startled when I first entered the formation."
"Yes, especially the first time, the results were the worst. It's not an easy task to last the time it takes for three incense sticks to burn."
"Although the cultivators who can participate in the qualification competition at the sect are all strong, there are still not many who represent the sect in the assessment competition each year. I wonder what results Baili Hongzhuang and the cultivators from Canglan Academy will achieve this time. If they can't last for a long time, it would be embarrassing."
Baili Hongzhuang and the others were observing the situation of the cultivators in the assessment formation, but the discussions of the surrounding cultivators gradually reached their ears.
After all, their appearance today was quite remarkable and attracted a lot of attention.
Xia Zhiqing and the others couldn't help but have a serious expression after hearing these words. Before coming to Tian Gang Sect, they hadn't thought too much about it, thinking it was a good opportunity.
However, now that they were faced with the current situation, they realized that everything wasn't so simple.
Both Baili Hongzhuang and Emperor Beichen were under tremendous pressure to allow them to participate in the assessment. If their performance today was poor, not only would they be mocked by others, but Baili Hongzhuang and Emperor Beichen would also be implicated.
This was not what they wanted to see.
Gong Shaoqing, Dongfang Yu, and the others exchanged glances and felt the presence of this pressure.
In a situation where no one had high expectations for them, they could only motivate themselves. Only by performing well could they shut the mouths of these cultivators!
They were well aware that whether in Tian Gang Sect or in other dynasties, if they didn't have enough strength, they would become objects of ridicule.
