"Bang!"

The thunder and lightning sword light flashed the eyes of Liangzi and the others, and one of Shen Ji's legs flew seven or eight meters away.

Everyone's expressions changed drastically.

Good guy!

Really good guy!

That is the second-ranked top genius among the third-grade disciples!

He is an outstanding person who has reached the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm at a young age, but just after meeting him, he was chopped off by Xiao Nuo...

"Ah!" Shen Ji let out a shrill scream. His eyes were scarlet and he was unsteady on his feet.

His heart was both frightened and angry.

"Junior Sister Liangzi, help, save me..." Shen Ji hurriedly asked Liangzi for help, but Liangzi couldn't save herself.

Although she is Liang Xingchen's sister, Liang Xingchen is not here.

Seeing Shen Ji's tragic situation, Liangzi's mind couldn't help but recall the scene when she faced Xiao Nuo when she challenged the Piaomiao Ladder.

He, Xiao Nuo, is not afraid of Liang Xingchen at all.

Xiao Nuo looked at the shocked and angry Shen Ji coldly, and swung the lightning sword in his palm again.

"Don't talk nonsense next time!"

"Chi la!"

The arc-shaped thunder sword energy stung everyone's eyeballs. Shen Ji, who was still shouting for help, suddenly felt his mouth go cold, and then half of his tongue swung out of his mouth.

This time, Shen Ji couldn't even scream. He fell down and fell out. His anger completely disappeared, leaving only panic.

Liangzi was immediately frightened and collapsed on the ground, her fear of Xiao Nuo rapidly growing in her heart.

The other few people were all pale with fright, and not even one of them dared to step forward.

awful!

Shen Ji was really miserable. Just because he said he wanted to cut off Xiao Nuo's hands and feet and turn Xiao Nuo into a useless person, he ended up humiliating himself and ended up like this.

This time Shen Ji was completely finished. With his opponent's strength, he was definitely able to clear the Phantom Demon Tower and advance to the ranks of second-grade disciples.

But now, let alone the second-grade disciples, they can't even go to the Sky Tower.

"Bring it here!" Xiao Nuo stretched out his hand towards Liangzi and others: "All the Jade Soul Crystals!"

Upon hearing this, everyone was even more frightened.

After looking at Shen Ji's tragic situation, the people behind him didn't dare to think too much and took out their own jade soul crystals.

Liangzi didn't dare to resist. She gritted her teeth and took out more than twenty jade soul crystals from her body: "Ling, I can give the soul crystals to you, and give the Thunder Sword... back to me!"

"Qiang!" Before the other party could finish speaking, Xiao Nuo raised his sword, and the jade soul crystal in Liangzi's hand flew out.

Xiao Nuo waved his hand and took away all the Blue Soul Crystals.

"You..." Liangzi's eyes turned cold, and she said in a deep voice: "My brother gave me the Thunder Sword."

Before he could finish his words, the light from the Thunder Sword had already opened a bloodstain on Liangzi's body.

"hiss!"

The dazzling sword light splashed out, crimson blood flowed, and Liangzi was shocked. Before she could scream in panic, the sharp sword tip was already pressed against her throat.

"Be quiet, or your head will fly away..."

The cold voice reached Liangzi's ears, and the latter immediately closed her mouth. She looked at Xiao Nuo tremblingly, like a frightened bird.

All those people at the back stood there honestly.

Xiao Nuo's methods were really ruthless, not even the title of 'Extreme Blade Sword Ziliang Xingchen' could make him even the slightest bit afraid.

Liangzi shook her head in panic: "Don't, don't kill me..."

Under the pressure of fear, Liangzi had forgotten that this was an assessment arena and no killing was allowed.

But even if she remembered, she couldn't guarantee whether Xiao Nuo would turn her into like Shen Ji.

"Answer my question will keep your limbs intact." Xiao Nuo said coldly.

Liangzi nodded repeatedly.

"Why did you and Zhou An kill me that day at the Piao Miao Ladder?" Xiao Nuo asked.

Liangzi timidly replied: "Zhou, Zhou An, it was Zhou An who said..."

"say what?"

"Say..." Liangzi started to speak but stopped.

The next moment, the Thunder Sword penetrated half of the flesh again, and a drop of crimson blood trickled down from Liangzi's neck.

"It's my brother..." Liangzi held her head in her hands and was about to cry without tears: "Zhou An told me that it was my brother who wanted him to intercept you on the way, so I..."

Xiao Nuo didn't seem too surprised by what Liangzi said.

But his eyes became increasingly cold.

"I told you, don't kill me..." Liangzi begged for mercy, completely losing her previous arrogance.

Xiao Nuo drew back her sword slightly and glanced at everyone coldly: "Get out!"

Liangzi felt relieved, but her hands and feet were trembling and she couldn't stand up.

Seeing this, several people at the back quickly stepped forward to help Liangzi and Shen Ji, who were covered in blood, and left the abandoned palace in despair.

"Liang Xingchen..." Xiao Nuo's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a chill in his eyes.

Immediately, Xiao Nuo stuck the Thunder Sword vertically on the ground, and gathered the jade soul crystals that he had snatched from Liangzi and his group together with the ones he had "snatched" before.

It was okay if he didn't count, but when he did, Xiao Nuo was overjoyed.

Added up before and after, the total number of jade soul crystals actually exceeds more than two hundred.

"Absorbing these 'Jade Soul Crystals' should be able to condense a 'Bronze Shield', right?" Xiao Nuo asked.

"Just do it! You can give it a try..." Ta Ling replied.

"good!"

Xiao Nuo nodded and then found a clean place to sit down.

Then, Xiao Nuo activated the "Hongmeng Hegemon Art", and as a powerful force surged through his body, ancient bronze patterns appeared on his arms...

"Crack!"

More than two hundred jade soul crystals suspended in front of Xiao Nuo shattered almost simultaneously. Then, wisps of pure spiritual energy were like rising phantoms, intertwined and dancing with Xiao Nuo as the center.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, more than two hundred wisps of blue heart phantoms flew up and down like enchanting elves, and then, pulled by the invisible force, penetrated into Xiao Nuo's body and flowed through the major meridians.

The pure spiritual power was quickly refined by the ancient bronze body, and the ancient cyan patterns on Xiao Nuo's arms became clearer and more dazzling.

Slowly, Xiao Nuo could clearly feel the airflow coming from all directions, and at the same time, a blue cyclone was moving around him.

"Buzz!"

An ancient trembling sound shook from Xiao Nuo's body, and cyan light emitted from the inside and gradually expanded outward.

Immediately afterwards, a circular bronze light shield appeared outside Xiao Nuo.

This is a shield that exudes an ancient aura. It looks hollow and solid, with mottled green lines visible. Circles of ripples spread out from under Xiao Nuo's body, like ripples on the water's surface.

Xiao Nuo's eyes flashed with green light, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Success!"

"It's still the early days!" Ta Ling said: "If your realm is higher, this 'bronze shield' will be more solid."

The bronze shield that Xiao Nuo initially condensed did not look particularly solid, and even showed a transparent color in some places.

However, Xiao Nuo was quite satisfied. Even the early bronze shield could withstand the power of high-grade spiritual weapons.

At this moment, wind and thunder suddenly rolled outside the abandoned palace...

"Huh?" Xiao Nuo was slightly startled. He immediately put the bronze shield into his body and pulled out the Thunder Sword from the ground.

When I walked outside the palace, I saw that the sky above was dark and low, with dark clouds covering the sky.

Immediately afterwards, a solemn voice spread to the earth.

"The first phase of the assessment is about to end. Disciples who have not yet gone to the Climbing Platform, please hurry up!"

"I repeat, the first phase of the assessment is about to end. Please hurry up for those disciples who have not yet gone to the Climbing Platform."

The entire assessment arena was shaken by this magnificent momentum.

Xiao Nuo's heart felt a little chilled, it was almost time to go to the Sky Tower.
