Luo Yan

At this moment, Mo Can suddenly stepped out from the crowd and said loudly, "I saw with my own eyes that it was those Aristocratic Clan Disciples who came up to provoke trouble, and he was the first to hit Luo Zheng!"

Mo Can was very nervous at this time. As a resident of the Imperial City, he knew better than the commoners how terrifying the Scholar Clans were. Even the weakest Scholar Clan had a foundation that ordinary families could not compare to. But at this moment, Mo Can did not hesitate too much.

Seeing Mo Can stand out at this time, Luo Zheng was deeply moved and even felt a little ashamed. Yesterday, he had almost failed the Sea Trials because of him, and now he was coming forward to help him testify, which clearly offended the Wang Family.

With Mo Can as the leader, the other trial disciples also echoed their agreement.

They also hated unfairness, but now that Mo Can had come out to bear the Wang Family's hatred, they were very willing to condemn this unfairness.

"That's right, these Aristocratic Clan Disciples are too unreasonable!"

"They were clearly the first to strike!"

"Exactly, exactly!"

As the many trial disciples joined in the commotion, the faces of Wang Hengzhi and his group of Aristocratic Clan Disciples immediately darkened. The tall Wang Family disciple stared intently at Mo Can, as if he wanted to swallow him whole.

But with so many instructors present, they did not dare to act again.

Instructor Su blinked her eyes and said, "Since that's the case, the matter is very clear. Since they were the first to cause trouble, they should be punished. Which peak is the disciple who hit someone from?"

"He is an inner disciple of Taiyi Peak," Zhong Ming also didn't want to get involved in this matter, so he could only answer like this, "I have decided to deduct one hundred points from him as punishment."

"Taiyi Peak? Instructor Xu! Your inner disciple from your peak caused trouble and hit someone without reason. According to the Sect Rules, how should he be punished?" Instructor Su did not want this matter to be resolved simply, so she turned her head and asked loudly.

Instructor Xu walked out from among the thirty-three instructors and glanced at the disciple from his peak. "According to the Sect Rules, one thousand points should be deducted!"

The corner of the tall Wang Family disciple's mouth twitched. He didn't care about deducting one hundred points, but deducting one thousand points was a bit painful. These points in the Azure Cloud Sect were very useful. Whether it was for cultivation or needing secret manuals, points were needed for exchange.

However, the ways to obtain points were very limited. One way was to complete the tasks issued by the Azure Cloud Sect, and the other way was to buy them with money. Initially, one Square Crystal Stone could be exchanged for one point, but the price had increased in recent years, and now two Square Crystal Stones were needed to exchange for one point.

Although this Wang Family disciple was from a Scholar Clan, the Wang Family was a large Scholar Clan with countless family members, and he was not a core member of the family.

One thousand points, equivalent to two thousand Square Crystal Stones, was definitely a huge sum for him.

Instructor Su smiled slightly and said to Instructor Xu, "This punishment is very good, let's handle it this way!"

Instructor Xu nodded, but he was extremely annoyed in his heart, thinking, Good my ass. If I don't punish him like this, this girl will make a fuss again later, it's simply endless, but I'll feel better myself...

After dealing with this matter, Instructor Su walked up to Luo Zheng and said, "I found that there is something wrong with your disciple token. Can you show it to me?"

Luo Zheng was a little puzzled when he heard this. What could be wrong with his disciple token? But this instructor had helped him and was beautiful and sweet, so there was no reason for her to harm him. So Luo Zheng readily handed over his disciple token.

Instructor Su took it with her jade hand and carefully examined it back and forth before returning the disciple token to Luo Zheng and smiling, "Okay, I just misread it, there should be no problem!"

This action made Luo Zheng feel inexplicably confused, but at this time, he didn't think so much. Being able to smoothly participate in the Bloodcolor Trials was already a blessing for him, and he didn't want any more accidents.

Then Zhong Ming stood in the center of the crowd and began to announce the rules of the Bloodcolor Trials.

"The rules of this Bloodcolor Trial are very simple. Kill Illusory Beasts, and you will get a crystal shard at the same time you kill them. Bloodcolor Mountain is divided into five areas. The outermost area is populated with Level 1 Illusory Beasts. After killing them, you can get Green Crystal Shards. The Illusory Beasts in the second layer are Level 2 Illusory Beasts. After killing them, you will get Yellow Crystal Shards. The third layer follows the same pattern. Level 3 Illusory Beasts give Blue Crystal Shards, the fourth layer gives Purple Crystal Shards, and the fifth layer gives Black Crystal Shards."

"For Green Crystal Shards, you need to accumulate one hundred pieces to pass the assessment. For Yellow Crystal Shards, you only need thirty pieces to pass. For Blue Crystal Shards, you need ten pieces. For Purple Crystal Shards, you need three pieces, and for Black Crystal Shards, you only need one piece."

Luo Zheng listened carefully to the rules of Bloodcolor Mountain. It seemed that killing the Illusory Beasts in the outermost area was the easiest because they were only Level 1 Illusory Beasts, but he needed to kill one hundred Level 1 Illusory Beasts, which was quite a large number. The most powerful Level 5 Illusory Beast only needed to be killed once to get a Black Crystal Shard to pass the assessment, but the strength of Level 5 Illusory Beasts was too strong, and ordinary people were no match for them.

"Please pay attention to one point. Everything that happens on Bloodcolor Mountain is an illusion, but you will also be injured, feel pain, and even die! However, these are all illusions. After you 'die', you will be sent down Bloodcolor Mountain and lose your trial qualification! You only have one chance, please seize it!" After Zhong Ming finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "You can go up the mountain now. According to custom, Aristocratic Clan Disciples go up the mountain first!"

Another privilege for the Scholar Clans!

Under these rules, those who went up the mountain first definitely had an advantage. It was a pity that the rules were set by the people of the Azure Cloud Sect, and there were intricate connections between the Azure Cloud Sect and those Scholar Clans and even the Burning Heaven Palace. Therefore, although many commoners were unhappy, they could not say anything.

At this time, an Aristocratic Clan Disciple asked, "Can I bring my guard up the mountain?"

"Of course not!" When this question was asked, Zhong Ming immediately didn't know whether to laugh or cry. If helpers could be brought up to the Bloodcolor Trials, then everyone wouldn't need to participate in the Bloodcolor Trials. They could easily pass by bringing a few experts. Was this considered a trial?

Wang Hengzhi said to the two members of their family who were participating in the Bloodcolor Trials, "Wang Qing, Wang Lan, remember the appearances of those two people. Find an opportunity to act after you go up the mountain."

The two nodded and said to Wang Hengzhi, "Seventh Young Master, don't worry, we will definitely make him roll down from Bloodcolor Mountain early."

Wang Hengzhi nodded, and then instructed, "At the critical moment, you can use the Killer Weapon bestowed by the family, understand?"

"But Seventh Brother, there is only one Killer Weapon, and it will be gone after use..." One of them hesitated.

The Wang Family was a family of skilled craftsmen. There were many skilled craftsmen in their family, and Wang Dai, one of the three great refining masters of the current dynasty, was a member of the Wang Family.

Because of this, the Wang Family disciples all had a life-saving treasure called a 'Killer Weapon'. This treasure had great power and could turn the tide when released at a critical moment. However, each family member only had one, and it was extremely precious. Therefore, the two did not want to use the Killer Weapon just to kill Luo Zheng.

Moreover, on Bloodcolor Mountain, people could not be truly killed. Even if Luo Zheng was killed, it would only be equivalent to driving him down the mountain.

"Don't worry, I will apply for another Killer Weapon for you!" Wang Hengzhi was a direct descendant in the family, and his status was naturally much higher than Wang Qing and Wang Lan. The Killer Weapon, which was extremely precious to them, was an ordinary item to Wang Hengzhi.

"Brother Hengzhi, I didn't expect my family matter to trouble you so much," Luo Peiran said from the side.

Wang Hengzhi smiled faintly, "Peiran, this is just a small matter. Besides, my elder brother still needs to ask you to write a few more letters to Purgatory Mountain and say some good things about him!"

"That's what I should do. My little sister is just a bit stubborn. In time, she will surely understand this matter. If she can marry into your Wang Family, it will be a lifelong blessing for her," Luo Peiran said.

It was fortunate that the two were relatively far from Luo Zheng. If Luo Zheng had understood their conversation, he would probably have directly fought Luo Peiran to the death!

In fact, Luo Yan had been staying in Purgatory Mountain of the Azure Cloud Sect and still did not know about the changes in her family, let alone that her father had been killed.

In the correspondence over the past few years, Luo Peiran had also fabricated various reasons and excuses to coax Luo Yan. Now, he even wanted to deceive Luo Yan and make her marry Wang Hengzhi's elder brother after she came out of Purgatory Mountain.
