Assessment Begins

His oppressive aura was like a giant hand, slamming down directly towards Lin Mu.

Lin Mu's eyes held a hint of indifference.

A surge of Divine Soul energy emerged.

Zhou Cong's giant hand seemed to land on an iron mountain, having no effect on Lin Mu.

Zhou Cong's expression changed, and he took half a step forward, at which point an even stronger pressure surged forth.

At that moment, several giant hands slammed towards Lin Mu.

Lin Mu neither dodged nor evaded, his Divine Soul attaching itself to the surface of his body.

He was as solid as a rock.

Boom!

Despite the clash of their Divine Soul, Zhou Cong's oppressive aura had no effect on Lin Mu.

On the contrary, those around him showed expressions of pain.

Those with weak Divine Soul cultivation retreated repeatedly, spitting out blood.

"What are you doing?" a shout rang out.

Zhou Cong immediately withdrew his Divine Soul Power.

Several Staff Member ran towards this side.

"The assessment hasn't started yet, no fighting allowed!" one of them shouted.

"Yes!" Zhou Cong nodded.

He knew that these people were all Staff Member, and if he reported the matter to higher authorities, he would not fare well either.

Lin Mu's face held a somewhat indifferent expression.

"You're nothing special!"

Zhou Cong clenched his fists, his eyes filled with resentment.

He hadn't expected Lin Mu's Divine Soul to be so resilient, remaining completely unmoved even by Divine Soul of his own level.

"The assessment is about to begin, don't get cocky!" Zhou Cong said coldly.

"Still making noise!" the Staff Member snapped.

Zhou Cong took a deep breath and immediately turned around and walked towards one end.

He dared not go against these people.

Lin Mu's eyes were indifferent, and he didn't take him seriously at all.

The Staff Member glanced at Lin Mu, said nothing, and turned to leave.

Bai Mo's face was somewhat pale.

Her Divine Soul cultivation was not strong.

The attack on Zhou Cong's Divine Soul also made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Fortunately, she was standing next to Lin Mu, who blocked most of the Divine Soul attacks for her.

"Is this what Fourth Order Divine Soul is?"

"That's really impressive!" Bai Mo thought to herself.

She also deeply felt the gap between herself and Lin Mu in terms of Divine Soul.

If Zhou Cong had targeted her, she probably would have collapsed to the ground.

The strength of the Fourth Order Divine Soul far exceeded her expectations.

Not far from here, several figures withdrew their gaze.

These people were dressed in extraordinary clothes, and their Divine Soul aura was extremely powerful.

It's not hard to tell from the way people around them look at them.

These are the top students who participated in this assessment.

They all have Fourth Order Divine Soul.

"Interesting. Under Zhou Cong's pressure, it has no effect whatsoever!" A man with a somewhat effeminate appearance said with a smile.

His name is Bai Wugu, and he is a member of the Bai family. He is born with a powerful Divine Soul, but he is skilled at using insidious methods, so many people do not like to associate with him.

"That's Lin Mu! He looks pretty good! He was able to enter the Eighth Floor on his first attempt at the Inverted Tower. That's something not everyone can do!" An Zian said at this moment.

"It's only the Eighth Floor! If I had prepared beforehand and used other methods to hone my Divine Soul, I could have done it too!" a burly man said with some disdain.

His name is Zhang Zigang, and he ranks third among these people.

"That's true, but who knows if he's practiced specifically before?" Liao Yuting ranked second, said with a smile.

"Without special training, to break through to the Eighth Floor in one go is truly remarkable. Even those elders might not be able to do it!" said a bald monk.

He ranked fifth, and his name was Li Wushan.

"We'll find out soon enough! Hopefully, he's not just a show-off!"

"..."

These people were discussing it, showing great interest in Lin Mu.

After all, his record of Inverted Tower is something that many people cannot do.

It's just that Lin Mu has only been in the Sorcerer Alliance for a relatively short time.

They also didn't know Lin Mu's true skill level.

Boom!

Just then, a dull sound came.

All that could be seen were Mist spreading across the horizon not far away.

A towering Immortal Platform that seemed to pierce the clouds was revealed at that moment.

Several figures were on the Immortal Platform.

They were all Examiners for this assessment, responsible for supervising the entire process.

Tang Daidai was also sitting among them.

She was in the third position from the left.

Ji Xi sat in the very center.

Because this assessment was related to the promotion of sorcerers, he naturally paid close attention to it.

Ji Shiyao sat to his left, her beautiful eyes scanning the crowd below the stage.

A thin, elderly man, around sixty years old, sat on the right.

His eyes were like lightning, extremely penetrating.

If Divine Soul is not strong enough, even just looking into his eyes will cause immense pressure.

"That kid is Lin Mu? He doesn't look like much!"

The old man's gaze lingered on Lin Mu for a moment, and he said with some disdain.

He is An Zian's grandfather and an elder in the Sorcerer Alliance.

He also knew about Tang Daidai's recent visit to Ji Xi on behalf of Lin Mu.

Ji Xi has already agreed that as long as Lin Mu stands out, he will be given the status of an outstanding student.

Promoted to a managerial position through exceptional promotion.

An Zian is already in charge, so there's no need for a promotion.

However, his status as an outstanding student could attract the attention of headquarters.

It can also help An Zian go further.

An Mo naturally didn't want to give up such a spot.

Therefore, he had considerable opinions about Tang Daidai.

"Elder An truly has discerning eyes; he can tell a person's character with just one glance!"

"How about you take charge of personnel selection for our college from now on?"

Tang Daidai said, her words carrying a sharp edge.

There was a hint of coldness in An Mo's eyes.

"After so many years in the league, don't you have this much discernment?"

Tang Daidai said, "You just think your grandson is very outstanding, right? But there are always mountains beyond mountains, and people beyond people! Don't take yourself too seriously!"

An Mo scoffed, "What kind of skill is it to have made it to the Eighth Floor of the Inverted Tower with your help?"

"If he really did it on his own, why didn't you have the Staff Member at the Inverted Tower report it to their superiors?"

"I have my own plans, so you don't need to worry about them!" Tang Daidai said.

Ji Mengyao's beautiful eyes fell on Lin Mu.

She was well aware of Lin Mu's talent.

Why would someone like that need to do such a thing?

Any one of his deeds would be enough to shock everyone present.

"He made it to the Eighth Floor the Inverted Tower in one go! That's really impressive!" Ji Mengyao thought to herself.

When she first tried it, she only made it to the Sixth Floor.

Compared to Lin Mu, there is still a considerable gap.

Ji Xi smiled slightly and said slowly, "The outcome will be clear in time. There's no need to make a fuss here!"

"Li Zhong, let's begin!"

An old man nodded slightly, walked forward, and spoke in a loud voice to the crowd.

"The assessment begins. All contestants, please enter the examination room!"
