Chapter 1834
If a fight were to break out, the outcome would be predictable.
They could swallow Li Lan and Da Niu whole with a single spit from each of them, so why would he need to give them any face now?
He immediately sneered and said:
"Brother Li, please don't be angry. Brother Xiao Niu is currently following me as an attendant. If he casually befriends others or even contacts them privately, he might leak our plans."
"Then tell me, how am I supposed to explain this to my other brothers?"
Luo Ye's high-sounding words, spoken with an air of moral superiority, left Da Niu speechless, his mouth agape, unsure how to refute him.
He looked at his younger brother with concern, only to find that the little calf was giving him a shy smile and scratching his head sheepishly, seemingly without any danger.
And indeed, as Luo Ye said, he was only slightly restricted in his actions.
Otherwise, how could he tolerate it?
Then, Da Niu snorted indignantly and turned to look aside. He really didn't want to see this person. His impression of Luo Ye was now extremely bad.
Luo Ye didn't care about Da Niu's attitude at all.
Instead, he smiled and looked at Li Lan.
But Li Lan said no more about it.
The path was chosen by himself, and since the young man has made this decision, it's not appropriate for him to interfere.
If the youngsters could simply say that they no longer wanted to stay with Luo Ye's team...
Because of his friendship with Da Niu, Li Lan was willing to risk suppressing all the wealthy young masters and their followers present, and even incurring the displeasure of the Star Devouring Sect, to save Xiao Niu from his predicament.
But when Xiao Niu looked at Li Lan, he only gave her an apologetic smile, and then said nothing more.
Seeing this, Li Lan stopped insisting.
As if sensing that Li Lan remained calm, Luo Ye shrugged and said with a smile:
“Brother Li, as you have seen, I never intended to restrict anyone’s freedom.”
“Ask these brothers; they all followed me voluntarily.”
"Moreover, to be honest, we already knew about the assessment content in advance, so we shared it with our good brothers beforehand."
“We naturally don’t want them to leak it so easily.”
"Even if it is Brother Li, I cannot tell you."
Upon hearing this, Li Lan nodded.
Just as Yue Nu had said, the Star Devouring Sect's assessments were different every time.
The Star Devouring Sect does this to prevent malicious individuals from taking preventative measures against the assessment content in advance, thus preventing them from playing a screening role.
Their Star Devouring Sect only needs true prodigies to join them.
As for the weak, they are merely nourishment for them and are not worthy of setting foot on their precious land.
At that moment, Li Lan and Luo Ye were chatting idly.
Suddenly, a stone pillar rose up in the center of the training ground, reaching a height of 100 meters.
Then a figure suddenly appeared at the top of the stone pillar.
Her clothing was similar to Yue Nu's, except that it was purplish-red, exactly the same color as Gu Tingyi's.
"Now that everyone is here, let's start the assessment ahead of schedule."
……
"What? The assessment is starting early? Wasn't it supposed to be three days later?"
"Could it be that everyone else has been eliminated? That can't be, right?"
"The last three days are usually when more cultivators arrive, why are you in such a hurry?"
……
For a moment, the cultivators in the training ground whispered among themselves, utterly astonished.
Only the three cultivators who had reached the level of Divine Servant remained calm.
Meanwhile, the six wealthy young men in front of Li Lan all had a slight upturn at the corners of their mouths, with calm smiles on their faces.
Clearly, they had already been informed of this sudden turn of events.
Or perhaps the Star Devouring Sect's assessment was predetermined, but it just didn't match the information circulating outside.
"Brother Li, the assessment is about to begin."
Wishing Brother Li a safe journey!
Luo Ye sneered.
Li Lan could naturally see the mockery in his eyes.
Why bother giving face to someone who's just hoping to die?
Li Lan looked down at Luo Ye with disdain in his eyes.
Looking at Li Lan's contemptuous gaze, Luo Ye couldn't believe that Li Lan would dare to treat him like this, showing him absolutely no respect.
Good, very good, someone actually dares to disrespect me.
interesting!
Luo Ye chuckled, then turned and left.
He considered himself extremely dashing in that manner.
The other wealthy young men stared at Li Lan with unfriendly expressions, as if they would attack him at any moment.
Da Niu opened his mouth slightly, looking at Li Lan as if he wanted to say something but ultimately didn't say anything more.
Anyone with a normal mind could understand the implied meaning in Luo Ye's words just now; he was clearly cursing Li Lan and him to die.
The phrase "smooth sailing" is nothing but a curse.
If his younger brother hadn't been in Luo Ye's group, he really would have liked to yell at him.
"Brother Li Lan, let it go, don't bother with this kind of person."
Da Niu tried to persuade Li Lan to stop her from losing her temper and exploding on the spot, which could potentially threaten and affect the assessment.
Li Lan nodded calmly, not taking it to heart.
The Star Devouring Sect deacon naturally witnessed the farce unfolding here.
He merely glanced at Li Lan disdainfully before averting his gaze and coldly saying:
"The assessment content is very simple, just two words: survival."
"All you have to do is live as best you can."
"But only ten people will survive in each exam room. Try to be one of those ten."
Before everyone could understand what it meant.
The deacon simply waved his hand dismissively.
And there they were, on the ground of the entire training ground, mysterious runes radiating brilliant light.
The light was so bright that it seemed to imprint the entire world with its dazzling brilliance.
Li Lan saw only a white light before her eyes, and then she felt the scenery around her change.
"This is the Great Path of Space!"
A few seconds later, the white light in front of Li Lan disappeared, and what came into Li Lan's view was no longer the training ground, but a primeval forest.
The surrounding trees are towering and enormous.
And the roars of monsters echoed in his ears.
"Could this be a primeval forest?"
Li Lan immediately turned around to look, only to find that there was no Wangxing Mountain in the endless distance behind him.
The town where the Star Devouring Sect was located also vanished without a trace.
"It seems this is an unknown area."
