This scene was within the Food God's expectations, but it dealt a heavy blow to the other students.
Although the trial was for students below the Explorer realm, the Frigid Immortal Sect had also sent out students at that level. When it came time for the Explorer, Cruiser, and Hunter realm students, the Frigid Immortal Sect would send out their own disciples as well.
They had been completely suppressed, which left many students confused. They had expected to be friendly, but what happened to roping them in?
How could this be?
Many students had thought that the Frigid Immortal Sect would be like the Wang family and the White Dragon Clan, but they were wrong. The Frigid Immortal Sect wanted to suppress them and then retaliate, not just rope them in. What was the difference between this and the Wang family and the White Dragon Clan?
Wang Xiaofan and Xia Shenguang exchanged glances, their eyes burning with passion. They had wanted to try the Sky Beyond trial for a long time, but they had not expected to get the chance to do so at Yixian Academy. They were confident that they were not any worse than the four young masters, and the only thing they lacked was luck. Now, luck was on their side. Not just the four young masters, but even the older and more glorious Seven Heroes had not tried the Sky Beyond trial. No, Bai Shaohong must have tried it.
They were already impatient.
"Student Bai, have you tried the Sky Beyond trial?"
Lu Yin asked.
Bai Weiwei replied, "I have, but I failed. I can only reach thirty thousand meters at most, and I'm still halfway to the clouds."
"Even you can only reach thirty thousand meters. It really is difficult." Lu Yin sighed.
"Does Sir want to try it?"
Bai Weiwei asked.
Lu Yin was surprised. "Can I?"
Bai Weiwei smiled. "I'll ask later. It should be possible."
Lu Yin's eyes flickered, and he looked up at the sky. If he could, would he try it?
During the era of the Seven Heroes, he had not tried it. Was it because the Lu family had stopped him or something else?
There had to be a reason why the Seven Heroes had not tried it. Was it good or bad?
With these thoughts in mind, the youths fell from the sky one by one. The best Frigid Immortal Sect disciple had climbed several thousand meters and was looking down on everyone else. Unfortunately, he was still far from Bai Weiwei's thirty thousand meters, let alone reach the clouds.
Yixian Academy's top student was not even half as high as the Frigid Immortal Sect disciple, which made many students fall silent.
Suddenly, there was a wail as a student clutched his head and fell to the ground.
The Culinary God hurried over to take a look, and Lu Yin also stepped forward to stare at the student.
No matter how the Culinary God shouted, the student seemed to have lost his mind. His eyes were lifeless, and he would occasionally laugh or cry. On the other side, a disciple from the Frigid Immortal Sect shouted in horror, claiming that he couldn't cultivate anymore. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't control the star energy in his body.
The other students of Yi Xian Academy were terrified when they saw this, and many of them wanted to retreat.
Lu Yin frowned, unable to understand why things had turned out this way.
The Culinary God did not blame the Cold Immortal Sect. Wu Yao and Bai Su had reminded them before the attempt. At the same time, the Culinary God also made the cultivators who attempted to ascend to the clouds promise to keep everything they knew a secret.
Regardless of whether he remembered it or not, the Trials of the Heavens Beyond Heaven were not allowed to be spread to outsiders.
The crazy student was brought back. The Culinary God glanced at the students and said in a low voice, "Cultivation won't be smooth sailing. Some of you are independent cultivators, and you've already experienced life and death on your way to the academy. Some of you have clans or sects backing you, so your cultivation has been smooth sailing. But once you leave these, what will you have?"
"Whether it's cultivating in the academy or adventuring outside, you'll have to experience life and death.
I can see fear in your eyes, but I can also see anticipation. You can choose not to go through this trial. "
Wu Yao and the other cultivators from the Frigid Immortal Sect looked at the Yi Xian Academy students with interest. The Frigid Immortal Sect's disciples all had arrogant looks on their faces, as if they were superior. This was the Frigid Immortal Sect's goal, and no one wanted to be outdone. Since they couldn't reach that position in Yi Xian Academy, then they might as well join the Frigid Immortal Sect.
The Explorers and Hunters all walked out with resolute looks on their faces. Since they had decided to come out, they were willing to accept the consequences, even if it meant losing their minds.
The Frigid Immortal Sect's disciples' gazes didn't change. They knew much more about the Outer Sky than the Yi Xian Academy students, and they had long since known that such a situation would occur.
As for the disciple who couldn't use star energy, he faced the fate of being abandoned. This was the cruel and merciless world of cultivation.
One cultivator after another ascended, their eyes glazed over. This time, Yi Xian Academy wasn't as miserable. There were a few students who could match the Frigid Immortal Sect's disciples, or even surpass them. For example, the little fatty was fat, but his speed was very fast. He continued to climb, fat and steady. He overtook one Frigid Immortal Sect disciple after another, and Bai Su and Wu Yao couldn't help but raise their eyebrows.
Very few people could be so fast on their first attempt at the Outer Sky. This speed was comparable to Bai Weiwei's.
Bai Weiwei hadn't expected the little fatty to be so fast, and she was a little surprised.
However, the little fatty was only fast in the early stages. When he reached fifteen thousand meters, he began to slow down. A female disciple from the Frigid Immortal Sect was hot on his heels. Although she was slow, she was more stable, and she gradually caught up to the little fatty.
The two of them were neck and neck, and the rest of the students were left behind.
In the end, the little fatty overtook the female disciple, but he failed when he was close to eighty thousand meters. He almost reached Bai Weiwei's original height.
After landing, two students from Yi Xian Academy had problems. One of them kept meowing like a cat and completely lost his mind. The other was motionless as if he were dead. No matter what was done to him, he was still dead. His eyes were still open, and it was a horrifying sight to behold.
As for the Frigid Immortal Sect, there were also two problems. One of them had a very strange posture and didn't dare to put it down. The other was constantly laughing. His laughter was so disgusting that it made people shiver. He was immersed in his own world.
Lu Yin exhaled. This thing was really strange.
The Outer Sky trial didn't look at one's cultivation base. Even if it was the trial of a half-step ancestor, there might be all kinds of strange symptoms after failure. And this was just the beginning. The others were fine now, but they might also have strange symptoms after returning.
The Food God looked at the remaining students. They were Xia Shenguang and Wang Xiaofan's group.
Strictly speaking, this group of people was not from Yi Xian Academy. They represented the Square Scale, the Seed Garden, and the Liu family. However, they were more than happy to be able to use Yi Xian Academy's name to attempt the Grandmaster's Trial.
Three Enlighters walked out from the Frigid Immortal Sect.
The appearance of these three shocked the students from Yi Xian Academy who had already passed the trial. These three people meant that the Frigid Immortal Sect had three more Enlighters in their generation. How shocking was that?
Lu Yin's eyes narrowed. This was the foundation of a colossus.
Wang Xiaofan and Bai Weiwei were about the same age as the former Ten Arbiters. In the entire Fifth Mainland, there were only ten Enlighters in the Outerverse, and even if one added the Neoverse, there wouldn't be more than twenty.
Twenty of them were still Hunters, and some had only become Enlighters when they were over forty years old. However, the Frigid Immortal Sect could produce four Enlighters.
Bai Weiwei was even qualified to challenge an Emissary as an Enlighter. What kind of foundation was this?
In comparison, the White Dragon Tribe was far inferior. They couldn't even find a decent elite in this generation. There might be cultivators from outside the tribe, but they might as well not bring them out.
When the three Enlighters saw Bai Weiwei, they bowed respectfully. "Senior sister."
Bai Weiwei glanced at them. "Let me see how much progress you've made."
The three disciples looked at each other. "Yes."
When the trial began, a total of ten people started to climb the clouds. The most eye-catching one was naturally Bai Weiwei, and her speed left the little fatty speechless. Although his eyes were also glazed over, she continued to ascend. In the blink of an eye, she had already traversed three thousand meters, and she continued to climb.
Following closely behind were not the three Enlighters from the Frigid Immortal Sect, but Wang Xiaofan, followed by Xia Shenguang and the other three disciples from the Frigid Immortal Sect. After them were Qing Feng, Nong Siniang, and Jin Zhongshan. At this moment, everyone's eyes were on the last person, and that person was Liu Que.
No one had expected Liu Que to be the slowest, not even Wu Yao.
Among this generation's geniuses, Liu Que was known as the person closest to the Four Young Ancestors. He was an absolute expert of his generation, and he could kill Jin Zhongshan with a single finger. However, such a person had actually been left behind by Jin Zhongshan.
It wasn't that Jin Zhongshan was talented; if he was, he wouldn't have been ranked behind. It was just that Liu Que's performance in this trial was too poor.
"The Sky Beyond Heaven trial doesn't look at cultivation, so no one knows what will happen. It's obvious that Liu Que isn't used to it," Mr. Tang sighed.
"Not necessarily." The Culinary God watched Liu Que slowly ascend. "Let's wait and see."
After a while, Bai Weiwei reached a height of thirty thousand meters, and ordinary people couldn't see her from below. As for Wang Xiaofan, who was originally not far from her, he had stopped. Xia Shenguang also stopped not far from Wang Xiaofan.
Everyone looked up at the sky. The clouds emitted a soft white light that fell like pillars of light. Bai Weiwei looked like a fairy, beautiful and unattainable.
Bai Weiwei was still ascending, and Wu Yao's eyes were filled with anticipation. If the Frigid Immortal Sect produced someone who could become an immortal, it would have a huge impact on the future situation. They would also be one step closer to the Lu family.
The reason why the Lu family could control the Fifth Mainland was not only because of the Lu family's ancestor, but also because of the Ancestor Realm. They could even call upon the Ancestor Realm. This was something that other families could never compare with. The only thing they could do was to train as many Ancestor Realm powerhouses as possible.
However, Wu Yao's idea fell through as soon as it rose. Bai Weiwei stopped when she reached a height of twenty thousand meters. She was still thirty thousand meters away from the clouds, which was unreachable.
Wang Xiaofan and Xia Shenguang stopped when they reached a height of thirteen thousand meters. They were far from Bai Weiwei's level.
Qing Feng was still several thousand meters away from Wang Xiaofan, not even thirty thousand meters. Nong Siniang was second only to Qing Feng, followed by Liu Que and Jin Zhongshan.
Unknowingly, Liu Que had surpassed Jin Zhongshan and was not far from Nong Siniang and Qing Feng.
As for the three disciples of the Frigid Immortal Sect, they were second only to Xia Shenguang and Wang Xiaofan. They had already experienced the trial, but they still couldn't compare to these two.
Now everyone should have reached their limit, and those who should stop had stopped. Only one person was still climbing slowly, and that was Liu Que.
