No hope for eternal life

Chapter 230 Initiating Elimination

At the same time, Yang Wuque finally woke up slowly, and Mu Changsheng hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Sir, you have passed the test."

Yang Wuque was much calmer than Mu Changsheng yesterday. He nodded and said, "This entry test is indeed ingenious and can really serve the purpose of an assessment."

Xia Rong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Oh, Junior Brother Yang is quite calm. Don't you suspect that this is the third level of illusion?"

"There is indeed a possibility of a third illusion, but in my opinion, the extreme contrast created by the two illusions is enough. Adding a few more illusions would be superfluous and too repetitive." Yang Wuque spoke freely.

"Not bad, not bad." Xia Rong nodded and smiled: "That day in the Divine Guard City, I was deeply impressed by Junior Brother Yang's bravery in killing the enemy. I didn't expect that Junior Brother Yang was not only good at fighting, but also so good at speaking."

"I'm just a useless person, not worth mentioning." Yang Wuque clasped his fists and saluted, generous and graceful.

Xia Rong chuckled and said, "You are as powerful as the Tribulation Realm, yet you call yourself a useless person. How can those cultivators below the Tribulation Realm feel?"

As Xia Rong was talking, she suddenly said in surprise: "Oh, today is a triple blessing. Ji Leyao also passed the entrance examination."

At the same time, Wang Tianhua also spoke, but he frowned and said: "Mu Xun also passed the second level of the illusion test."

"Mu Xun has also passed the assessment." Mu Changsheng was overjoyed. He was originally worried about Mu Xun's safety, but at this moment he heard the news that Mu Xun had passed the assessment.

Xia Rong noticed Wang Tianhua's frown and asked, "Junior Brother Wang, do you think there is something wrong with Mu Xun?"

After all, Wang Tianhua had just said that it was still a question whether Muxun could survive. Now there was a sudden reversal, and Xia Rong keenly realized that something was wrong.

"I can't see any signs of cheating." Wang Tianhua shook his head slightly, and then said: "But I suspect that the reason why Mu Xun was able to pass the second level of the illusion test is mostly because he relied on the demon clan as his backing, so he dared to betray Lingshan Sect in the illusion."

"So, Junior Brother Wang, you want to initiate the elimination of Muxun." Xia Rong narrowed his eyes and understood what Wang Tianhua meant.

"Yes, that's exactly what I meant." Wang Tianhua nodded.

However, Mu Changsheng standing by was very puzzled: "Didn't Mu Xun pass the second level of the illusion test? Why did he have to be eliminated?"

"Junior Brother Mu, you don't know." Xiao Jingshan explained to Mu Changsheng: "As supervisors, the three of us have the power to directly eliminate a candidate as long as we reach a consensus, even if he has passed the second level of the illusion test. This is to prevent some unexpected situations from happening. For example, for Mu Xun, we cannot judge how much of his passing the test was out of his own will. Since we can't judge, we can only choose to have nothing rather than something less than perfect."

Xia Rong also explained: "In addition to this, there are some other situations. For example, someone is as smart as a demon and discovered the second illusion in advance. After knowing that it is an illusion, he naturally knows how to make the right choice. In that case, the meaning of the assessment is lost. Although such a person is smart enough, our Lingshan Sect would rather lose such a smart disciple. It is better to have less than to have something bad."

Mu Changsheng nodded slightly after hearing this. He understood the good intentions of the sect, but he still wanted to speak for Mu Xun: "Three senior brothers and sisters, I know Mu Xun. He is by no means an evil person. If Mu Xun is eliminated this time, it will be a heavy blow to him. It is very likely that he will be ruined. I know that the decision is in the hands of the three senior brothers and sisters. I can't ask the three senior brothers and sisters to do anything. I can only ask the three senior brothers and sisters to consider these words of mine. In addition, Mu Xun has entered the Lingshan Sect. I am willing to guarantee him. If he has any improper behavior in the future, I am willing to be punished."

"I am also willing to be a guarantor for Mu Xun." Yang Wuque also said.

Upon hearing this, Wang Tianhua and the other two looked at each other in surprise. Now that Mu Changsheng and Yang Wuque have both passed the entrance examination and become disciples of Lingshan Sect, their words naturally carry weight.

Finally, it was Xia Rong who spoke up: "Since the two new junior brothers have said so, Junior Brother Wang, Junior Brother Xiao, you two should also think carefully about whether you should insist on eliminating Mu Xun."

"I insist." Wang Tianhua insisted. He was Muxun's supervisor and was very dissatisfied with Muxun's performance in the illusion.

"I insist, too." Xiao Jingshan said helplessly, and then he said to Mu Changsheng and the others: "To be honest, I was looking forward to Mu Xun, but compared to those expectations, I still trust Senior Brother Wang's judgment more. Senior Brother Wang is an inner sect disciple, and he must have made such a judgment from the perspective of the sect. I said this just to let you understand one thing, Senior Brother Wang is definitely more trustworthy than Mu Xun, or even me."

Mu Changsheng did not reply, but looked at Xia Rong. Whether Mu Xun would leave or stay, now it all depended on Xia Rong.

Xia Rong saw Mu Changsheng's gaze, shook his head helplessly and said: "My reason is the same as Junior Brother Xiao's. Compared to Mu Xun, whom I have never met, I still trust Junior Brother Wang's judgment more."

"Junior brother understands." Mu Changsheng said with a fist. Now that things have come to this, he can't force Xia Rong and the other two to change their minds. Moreover, this kind of Lingshan Sect and this kind of Lingshan Sect disciples are more in line with the image he expects in his mind.

"The conclusion has been reached, Junior Brother Wang, wake up Muxun." Xia Rong said to Wang Tianhua.

Wang Tianhua nodded slightly, instantly waking up Mu Xun.

When Mu Xun woke up, Wang Tianhua hit him hard: "You are eliminated."

Mu Xun frowned. He remembered that he had passed the test of the second level of illusion, so how could he be eliminated?

"Why?" Mu Xun asked.

Wang Tianhua said calmly: "Because your performance in the first level of illusion was too poor. You can even be said to be one of the worst people I have ever seen."

"The first illusion you set up was very unreasonable, without any clues. It would drive people crazy if it went on for a long time. My poor performance was because I was not careful for a moment and was controlled by my inner demons." Mu Xun defended.

"You can be controlled by your inner demons even in the illusion. Isn't that enough to explain the situation?" Wang Tianhua shouted in a deep voice.

Mu Xun looked embarrassed, but he had no reason to refute.

Wang Tianhua continued: "In addition, the first level of illusion is not really unsolvable, it's just that you can't think of it. You can ask your good friend Mu Changsheng about this."

Hearing this, Mu Xun finally noticed Mu Changsheng and Yang Wuque. He then looked at Chen Qun and Si Deng who were still sleeping around him. Mu Xun understood: "Have you all passed the assessment?"

Mu Changsheng did not answer directly, but comforted Mu Xun and said: "The success or failure of a moment does not mean anything, and there is more to do than joining the Lingshan Sect."

Mu Xun smiled bitterly. If Mu Changsheng and Yang Wuque had also failed, he would still have the face to go back and face Mo Lianyue. But he was the only one who was eliminated. How embarrassing it was for him.

Yang Wuque seemed to understand Mu Xun's mood and said to him in a soothing tone: "You are you, and the demons are the demons. Your life is your own, not the demons'. You have to live your life on your own."

Mu Xun remained silent, probably not knowing how to answer.

On the other side, Ji Leyao also woke up and was told that she had passed the entrance test.

At this point, of the eight people taking the test, only Ji Juan, Chen Qun, and Si Deng were still taking the test in the illusion.
