Li Rui has been learning the Seven Star Fist at the Academy during this time, mastering it like a dragon and a tiger, just short of finding someone to spar with to see if there has been any progress.
As soon as he stepped out the front door, he saw Ma Mingwei.
"Isn't this our Dean's closed-door disciple?" he remarked.
Li Rui felt something strange about this comment; it seemed to carry a hint of sarcasm, as if there was some underlying meaning.
After exchanging a few simple pleasantries, Ma Mingwei couldn't help but talk about the Dean. From him, Li Rui learned that the Dean hadn't taken on a disciple in over ten years and wondered what qualities Li Rui possessed.
Thinking about the Dean made Li Rui frown. He hadn't seen that guy in quite a while; where had he gone? Moreover, he was anxious about how the tasks assigned to him were progressing; it was truly exhausting!
Just then, Cao Cao arrived unexpectedly.
"The situation is a bit troublesome, but there is still a slim chance! First, you need to come with me to the back mountain."
This...
Li Rui felt somewhat displeased, but for the sake of his weapon, he was willing to give it a shot.
"Hurry up and call the Grand Elder; otherwise, it won't be so easy for you to get your weapon later!"
After they arrived at the back mountain, Li Rui saw an old man with white hair. The guy looked rather eccentric, his hair unkempt; if seen in a market, one might mistake him for a beggar!
"Your eyes are quite special!" unexpectedly said the Grand Elder at that moment.
Li Rui couldn't help but furrow his brows. A sense of unease washed over him; what was this about? He felt an inexplicable sense of danger from those words. Moreover, the Azure Dragon Breathing Technique was Li Rui's trump card, and he couldn't let anyone know about it.
"You don't need to be so nervous, I have no hostility!"
This guy's words are quite ridiculous; why say the previous sentence then?
Li Rui stood there calmly, not saying anything.
However, Dean kept tugging at Li Rui's sleeve, trying to get him to greet someone.
At that moment, the Grand Elder suddenly rushed towards Li Rui, pulling Dean aside, and a strong attack enveloped Li Rui's body.
This startled Li Rui greatly, and in the following moments, he retaliated repeatedly; otherwise, he would be at a disadvantage.
One star connected to another, and suddenly fourteen stars appeared during their confrontation. Neither of them moved, as if waiting for something.
"Not bad, I quite like this guy!" The Grand Elder's sudden remark left Li Rui stunned.
At that moment, Li Rui realized he couldn't move; it seemed the Grand Elder's Seven Star Fist was indeed superior to his own! There was nothing he could do; after all, his strength was lacking.
"He can accept that challenge! If he wins, he can take something away, but he cannot touch that one thing."
Li Rui couldn't help but frown upon hearing this. What kind of challenge was it? And what was that one thing? It sounded increasingly confusing.
Then Dean led Li Rui into the main hall. The surrounding Elders saw Li Rui's situation; some merely sneered, and it was unclear what they were whispering about.
"You must endure for three hours inside; otherwise, you won't be able to take anything away, and you must properly serve as my disciple in front of me."
Li Rui nodded and then walked towards the room pointed out by Dean.
Who would have thought that in the next second, with a "bang," the door closed shut. It was pitch black!
The sound of "whoosh whoosh whoosh" echoed as flames ignited one after another on the torches.
There was only one path to take, and what lay ahead was unknown. Suddenly, an overwhelming sense of pressure erupted, startling Li Rui; it seemed that this entity's power was even more terrifying than that of the Grand Elder just moments ago.
Along this path, only the sound of Li Rui's footsteps, "tap tap tap," and a strong aura could be heard.
At that moment, a lion's roar resonated in Li Rui's mind. This...
Li Rui began to slow his pace, faintly sensing that something significant lay ahead. It seemed he had heard about such a thing from Dean; could it be that "terrifying monster"?
Li Rui involuntarily swallowed the saliva in his throat, contemplating two choices: should he proceed or stop here?
However, thinking of his wife gave him courage, and he steadied himself to move forward.
Outside, there was a mirror, and sitting in front of it were two people—no need to guess that it was the Grand Elder and Dean.
At that moment, Dean's expression was clearly not good. As he watched Li Rui step forward, he had a vague feeling that someone was about to face trouble.
"Is he going to be okay? That guy hasn't been there for decades. Ever since I first walked in, I haven't dared to think about that place again."
"It's just a test of character; it's nothing serious," the Grand Elder replied with a calm smile, seemingly aware of something.
The further Li Rui walked, the more anxious he felt; it seemed as if something was blocking his heart. The air was present, but this sense of pressure was particularly uncomfortable. He wondered if...
Suddenly, the flames dimmed slightly, and Li Rui's steps slowed even more. He faintly sensed that ahead lay a Prison Gate; from afar, he could hear the sound of chains sliding.
As he approached, he saw that the Prison Gate was towering at least ten zhang high, seemingly constructed from an entire mountain. What kind of monster required such confinement?
Li Rui's curiosity surged, and he took step after step toward it. The sound of chains moving grew increasingly frequent, as if the two were gradually drawing closer.
"Roar!" Just as Li Rui reached the Prison Gate, a loud noise echoed in his ears, accompanied by a powerful aura that erupted directly.
Naturally, Li Rui dared not move; he had no idea what was happening. Trying to leave had already become impossible, as his feet no longer obeyed him.
It felt as if blood was flowing from his ears. Was he going deaf?
"Elder!" Dean shouted at the Grand Elder upon seeing something.
The Grand Elder, however, was incredibly pleased with the situation; perhaps it was true that a young calf is not afraid of tigers!
Suddenly, Li Rui's gaze met that of the monster, and an overwhelming sense of fear welled up within him.
