"We have to get out of here as soon as possible, can you still go?"
Xia Fan went back to Luo Qing and asked.
The blow just now almost exhausted all his qi. At the moment, all he wanted to
do was to lie down and take a good rest. However, Xia Fan also knew that the
battle was not over yet, and the beams on both sides of the city wall had been
ignited. The fire here would soon be swallowed up by the fire, and he had to
evacuate the breach before then.
Luo tried a few times but couldn't stand up. Judging from her painful
expression, the one hit by the black rope should have hurt a lot.
"I will lend you a hand." Xia Fan stretched out his hand to the other party.
If it were before, he would have been bent over to carry Luo gently. "Don't
worry, no one here will see it."
Luo stunned slightly, seeming to want to laugh, but as soon as the corner of
his mouth turned up, he pulled to the sore spot. He bit his mouth and took a
breath, "Do you consider me a foolish fool? Compared to this, the last half
sentence Words are more likely to cause misunderstandings! It's just about
helping each other and fighting side by side, even if you see it?"
After that, she grabbed Xia Fan's hand and pulled herself up.
"Uh..." Xia Fan didn't know what to pick up for a while. He felt as if he
hadn't said the right words before the other party.
"Hurry up, don't you mean to leave here as soon as possible." Luo gently
urged.
"Pay attention to your feet." He shook his head helplessly, and helped him
walk carefully towards the bottom of the ruins.
Compared with the huge speed gap when climbing, both of them are at the same
level this time.
The only improvement is probably a raging fire ignited behind them, at least
Mei could not attack them.
Just halfway through the climb, Xia Fan was suddenly shocked. I don't know
when the shouts and spells died down, and the town seemed to be shrouded in
silence.
His heart sank suddenly.
It’s not too late to act on his own, other candidates didn’t make it to the
moment when the demon fell.
If the line of defense has been defeated, their situation is extremely
dangerous. With the status of the two of them now, any evil creature can put
them to death.
Luo was also aware of this lightly, but her expression did not change, she
stopped and listened for a long time, and then whispered, "No... you listen
again."
Xia Fan focused and listened for a while, and couldn't help showing a
surprised expression-gradually there was movement in the direction of the city
wall, but it was not a sound of fighting or fleeing for life, but like someone
cheering.
This is by no means an illusion, because the sound quickly came and went one
after another, expanding to all directions. More and more people joined in the
cheers, and Sha Ye's oppression seemed to disappear.
It’s too early to break at this moment, what happened on it?
The two glanced at each other, and unanimously accelerated their pace.
When Xia Fan and Luo climbed up the city wall gently, a surprising scenery
suddenly appeared in front of them——
The dense black fog in the distance has completely faded, and the stars
reappeared in the night, but more eye-catching than the stars, it is the
"spiritual fire" swaying on the ground. They ebb and flow, like some kind of
gentle plants, sometimes emerald green, sometimes lavender, spreading from the
town to the end of the field of vision.
Compared with the usual erratic and unpredictable, the situation at this
moment has a sense of peace and tranquility. Under the reflection of the
spiritual fire, the earth is like a sea of light glowing with microwaves.
That is the relic left by Mei, and it is also the proof of passing the
examination.
The candidates who remained on the wall either raised their arms and shouted
or congratulated each other-at least for this moment, they regarded the people
around them as partners who could fight together.
The Great Desolate Night is over.
……
One day later, all the referees gathered again in the center of Qingshan Town.
Probably because of staying up all night in the final battle, the Privy
Council gave plenty of rest time. During this long-lost idle, the atmosphere
in the town was at its extreme. From the relationship to the brotherhood,
everyone seemed to forget that they were still misunderstanding each other a
few days ago, and even fought for a bottle of spiritual fire.
Xia Fan also learned a lot of news during the chattering--for example, the
residents of Qingshan Town were played by officials of the Privy Council;
another example is that there are official invigilators hidden among the
candidates; in short, the Great Desolate Night seems thrilling, but the whole
process is in Under the control of the Privy Council, the wounded were treated
as soon as possible. Except for a few unlucky individuals, the loss of the
candidates was not as great as imagined.
This confirmed Xia Fan's guess to some extent.
The purpose of shikao is to select talents for Qiguo, not for a death game.
There are risks, but the overall situation is basically within control.
Of course, the one that everyone talked about the most was the Demon Slayer
Thunder last night. Due to the lack of witnesses, the speculation was mainly
concentrated on the head of the three families-after all, the only ones who
have the ability to draw out the lightning strike wood and are willing to use
it for the examination of scholars are the best of the three families.
Among them, Fang Xiandao's supporters are many. Considering from the
perspective of the examinees, Fei Nian was first rescued by Luo gently, and
Fang Xiandao helped Luo gently. This result is not surprising. UU reading

And Xia Fan had no intention of getting out of the limelight. When he talked
about the topic, he basically covered it in one sentence. Even if someone
remembered that he had fallen off the city wall, he was fooled by the fact
that the scene was too chaotic and he didn't pay attention.
After everyone gathered, the invigilator who appeared on the first day finally
showed up.
There was a huge wooden board covered with red silk cloth on the stage with
him this time.
Obviously, that is the "red list" used to publicize the names of qualified
candidates, which corresponds to the gold list in the scientific examination.
This also made the enthusiastic crowd quiet instantly.
"First of all, I have to congratulate everyone here." The invigilator walked
to the long table, and his tone was much more enthusiastic than when he read
the rules. "After seven days of training, you can still stand here and
successfully achieve the exam goals. It has been proved to be eligible to join
the Privy Council!"
"I announce that the results of the Qingshan Township Examination are as
follows: 401 referees, and 189 passed. Among the eliminated candidates, 152
violated Article 1 and 2 violated Article 2. Nineteen people, and thirty-one
people who violated Article 3. The process and results are in compliance with
the Constitution of the Privy Council, and this test is valid!"
There was a burst of applause from the crowd.
There is nothing controversial about the first and second, basically those who
leave the field early and set the goal to be three years later. The key lies
in the third article-the Privy Council clearly classifies those candidates who
fled without a fight into the category of murdering candidates at the same
time, which means that even if they get the source of the spiritual fire, they
will not be able to pass the exam.
Those candidates who stayed on the city wall were naturally happy to see this
result, and they were full of praise for the Privy Council’s rewards and
punishments. Only Xia Fan was a little dismissive. In his opinion, the line of
defense at that time could be broken at any time, and the fighting will of
most candidates was nothing but half a catastrophe.
