Xu Chunniang heard the news and went out. At some point in front of the Tianshen Academy, a male cultivator appeared and blocked her way.

She took out the recommendation letter from Yan Ruyu and said, "I am here to apply for the position of academic officer of Tianshen College."

The male cultivator took the letter in her hand and glanced at it, "I see, just follow me."

He turned around and walked inside. As he walked, a gust of wind blew up from the ground.

As the wind blows, faint runes appear from the sky.

It turns out that the silence outside Tianshen Academy is just an appearance. Once someone breaks in without permission, the formation will be triggered.

Xu Chunniang stared at the runes around her, her eyes slightly focused.

I don’t know how advanced the person who set up the formation was, that he could actually conceal the formation so perfectly.

Seeing that she didn't move, the male cultivator leading the way paused slightly, "If fellow Taoist doesn't follow me, the formation will close automatically soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, another gust of wind blew up, the runes in the air showed signs of dissipating, and the figure of the leading male cultivator gradually became blurred.

Xu Chunniang didn't dare to delay any longer and hurriedly followed.

Strange to say, after entering Tianshen Academy with the male cultivator who led the way, I didn't meet anyone else during the whole journey.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be.

Seeing her frowning and saying nothing, Wang Tianyuan snorted and laughed.

"Xu Yatou, are you wondering why there is no one in this huge Tianshen Academy?"

Xu Chunniang couldn't help but sigh to herself, "I really can't hide it from you. It is said that there are one hundred thousand students in Tianshen Academy, but I didn't see even a single person along the way."

"Hey, how about you take a closer look?"

Xu Chunniang's heart moved slightly, she guessed that Wang Tianhuan must have a reason for saying this, and looked around intently.

After taking a closer look, she finally noticed something, with a look of shock in her eyes.

"Is this... a teleportation formation? No, it's more like some kind of special space formation."

"Haha, you are right. The entire Tianshen Academy is covered by a huge space formation. It is this formation that separates Tianshen Academy into different spaces.

You can't see other people because the two of you are in an independent space."

Xu Chunniang was shocked and speechless. The person who set up this great formation not only had a superb understanding of the formation, but also had reached the pinnacle of application of the laws of space.

"arrive."

A voice interrupted Xu Chunniang's thoughts. She composed herself and followed the guidance of the leading male cultivator and stepped into a main hall.

After the male cultivator who led the way left, the person who received Xu Chunniang in the main hall was an old man in the Void Refining Stage.

The old man glanced at her and said, "According to the rules set by the mountain chief, fellow Taoists need to pass three passes before they can become academic officers of our Tianshen College."

Xu Chunniang nodded. She understood all this clearly before coming.

Her cultivation is not enough, no matter how many military achievements and fame she has, it will be useless.

The only way to enter Tianshen Academy is to get a recommendation from a powerful person in the integration stage and then pass the three trials in front of you.

The old man nodded slightly and said, "In that case, let's ring the bell."

After saying that, he closed his eyes, as if he had already anticipated the outcome.

Xu Chunniang looked at the Dragon Soul Bell in the center of the hall, her expression slightly condensed.

To start the trial, you must first ring the Dragon Soul Bell ninety-nine times.

If the Dragon Soul Bell cannot be sounded or the number of strikes is not enough, the challenge will be considered failed.

Wangtianhuan glanced at the Dragon Soul Bell and was amazed.

"It's interesting. I actually smelled the soul of a real dragon from this dragon soul clock. This dragon soul clock is a bit interesting. Could it be that it really sealed an unlucky dragon?"

Xu Chunniang was thoughtful, "Look at this Dragon Soul Bell, do you feel familiar?"

Wang Tianxuan was startled, "What do you mean by this?"

"Look at the Dragon Soul Bell and the Soul Calming Pot. Are they made by the same person?"

"How is it possible? Although these two are both soul-type magic weapons, their refining techniques and materials are completely different. There is no way they are... ah!"

As Wang Tianhuan spoke, he screamed. At the same time, the Dragon Soul Bell suddenly started to tremble slightly and kept buzzing.

The old man who originally closed his eyes suddenly opened his eyes and glanced sharply at Xu Chunniang.

Xu Chunniang's heart tightened and she didn't dare to show any emotion. She asked Wang Tianhuan with her consciousness in her heart.

"What did you do to alert the Dragon Soul Bell?"

Wang Tianhuan's spiritual thoughts were obviously much weaker, "Didn't you say that these two might have been created by the same person? I just want to see the magic patterns in the Dragon Soul Bell..."

Xu Chunniang was speechless for a while, not knowing whether to call him stupid or big-hearted.

"Then do you see clearly?"

"I saw it. You are right. The pattern inside the Dragon Soul Bell is exactly the same as the Soul Calming Pot."

Xu Chunniang was shocked and was about to ask more questions when she felt a gaze on her.

It turned out to be the old man who had finished checking the Dragon Soul Bell and looked towards her again.

The old man glanced at her without leaving any trace, and thought to himself.

He had just checked and found that everything was normal with the Dragon Soul Bell.

This female cultivator is not very advanced, and she can't do any tricks under his nose.

The movement just now was probably caused by the evil dragon trapped in the clock.

He said calmly, "Why don't you step forward and ring the bell? If you don't make any move, it will be regarded as a waiver."

Xu Chunniang did not dare to hesitate, and quickly walked to the Dragon Soul Bell and held the bell's spine tightly.

She didn't know what kind of spiritual wood this bell spine was made of. As soon as she held it with both hands, she felt her whole body and mind calm down, and she could still vaguely smell a faint fragrance.

Xu Chunniang felt that her whole body was in a strange state, and she subconsciously pushed the clock back towards the big clock in front of her.

"clang!"

The melodious and resonant bell rang, accompanied by a faint dragon's roar, resounded throughout the entire hall, and continued to spread in all directions, until it spread to the entire Tianshen Academy.

Many students stopped and looked in the direction where the bell was coming from.

"Someone rang the Dragon Soul Bell again."

"The Dragon Soul Bell is not that easy to ring. The day before yesterday, the Dragon Soul Bell only rang six times, and the challenger vomited blood and fell into a coma."

"Let's see how many times the challenger can knock the bell this time."

The students of Tianshen Academy are naturally very familiar with the sound of the Dragon Soul Bell. After all, someone will come to challenge it every few days.

Almost all challengers can ring the Dragon Soul Bell, but there are very few people who can ring the Dragon Soul Bell ninety-nine times continuously.

But today's challenger seems a little unusual.

Ten breaths have passed, and the Dragon Soul Bell has been rung ten times.

The bell still sounded as loud and melodious as the first time, and even the volume did not decrease by half.

Seeing the continuous ringing of the bell, many students showed interest.

"It seems that the challenger this time is in a very stable mood. Maybe it is really possible to ring the Dragon Soul Bell ninety-nine times."

"It would be too early to draw a conclusion now. Let's wait."
