Peerless Taoist

On the door at the bottom of the tower, there was a golden signboard with the words Combat Examinations written by Lu Yu himself.    

This was a place specially used for the combat examination of the Imperial Examinations. The projections of experts from all over the world were recorded inside. It would only be opened during the Imperial Examinations and major trials to test the strength of the cultivators.    

The strength displayed by these projections wasn't much different from that of the original body.    

Even though there was a difference between the selection of officials and the Imperial Examinations, but in the end, it was the same thing. It tested both the theory and combat examinations, hence the Tower of Trials became the venue for the selection of officials and the combat examinations.    

If it was before, the combat examination of the Imperial Examinations would be varied and varied.    

Back then, when Lu Yu participated in the combat examination, not only did he have to step on the pressure ladder, he even had to ring the Fuxi bell. The time was too complicated, and he couldn't directly test a person's true strength.    

Now, Lu Yu had improved the combat examination method.    

A scholar only needed to step into the Tower of Trials and fight with the projections inside to judge his true level.    

After all, nothing could experience a person's true strength better than actual battle.    

"Is Lord Zhang speaking the truth? If the projection of the monster inside is strengthened, won't we be at a disadvantage?" a scholar loudly shouted.    

"Believe it or not, I never lie," Zhang Xuance said lightly. "You have the serial numbers of the monster candidates. If you think it's unfair, you can challenge them according to their serial numbers."    

"Okay, Lord Zhang is the disciple of the Saint. We believe you."    

The group of scholars couldn't control the anger in their hearts and charged toward the Tower of Trials.    

Because of the consideration of fairness and to prevent cheating, the positions of each of the examination halls in the selection of officials had been disrupted and redistributed.    

Therefore, these scholars had never met their opponents before, yet they had received the news that they had been eliminated. Naturally, they were unwilling to accept it.    

"They are just some Demonic Beasts. They are just barbarians. What right do they have to fight with us for the position?"    

"The human race is the master of the Ten Thousand Ancient Races. Suppressing a few Demonic Beasts is just a piece of cake for us."    

These scholars either looked down on him or had cold smiles on their faces as they swarmed into the Tower of Trials.    

Inside the Tower of Trials, there was a space that had been opened up by himself. It was unusually spacious. This was an alternate world that Lu Yu had opened up with his supreme magic power. The situation inside was exactly the same as in the Golden Millet Dream. Although it was an illusion, it was extremely real.    

If one fought inside, one could be injured or even die.    

Almost every time, someone would die inside.    

But even then, the Tower of Trials still attracted countless people.    

Several officials of the Bureau of Rites immediately came out of the Tower of Trials, their faces filled with worry. "Milord, if they really do defeat the monster disciples, are we going to revoke the results of our previous recruitment?"    

Zhang Xuance's expression was calm as he indifferently said, "I think all of you are overthinking things."    

"Although His Majesty has agreed to let the Yao students participate in the test this time, in reality, the Yao Race's test is the strictest."    

"The Yao Race disciples selected from the test must be dragons among men and have outstanding strength. They can't be defeated so easily."    

At this point, Zhang Xuance suddenly laughed again, "But if they were defeated, then they were defeated. I also want to see if there are any hidden gems in this group of people."
