Chapter 1637: Elimination
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
If they signed, no one could guarantee that they would definitely survive inside the Lava Mountain Range.
Immediately, there were several teams that beat a retreat.
Frankly speaking, Apex Academy was only their second choice. In reality, didn’t most of them originally want to go to the four great Sun, Moon, Star, and Celestial academies?
However, their costly tuition compelled them to settle for second best, so they planned to first try their luck at Apex Academy. After accumulating experience or wealth, they would try their luck at the four great academies next year.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDon’t be kidding. This was only an entrance exam. They didn’t want to gamble their lives away.
There were immediately seven to eight teams that dispersed with the announcement of this life-and-death contract. They looked toward Mentor Wei Xu with foul-looking expressions, questioning, “Since we are no longer taking Apex Academy’s exam, should Mentor not undo the seal on our mystic conscious?”
However, Wei Xu swept those teams with a cold look. “The seal on your mystic conscious will automatically be undone in seven days.”
In other words, he had no way of undoing the seal now??
Those people’s faces promptly turned green. They glowered at Wei Xu frustratedly, gnashing their teeth in anger.
If this Wei Xu had taken this life-and-death contract out at the beginning for them to sign, hell knows how many people would be left going with him into the mountains at this moment.
But he just had to wait until after he led them into the Lava Mountain Range before bringing this up.
How was this an entrance exam or practical training? This was simply putting them in a life-and-death struggle.
Whoever wanted to could go, but leave them out of it.
Excluding those people who withdrew, there were 15 teams remaining on the spot. Besides Qiao Mu’s party of five who were calm and collected, the other people’s expressions were more or less… stiff and unsightly.
Che Ruman turned to glance at Qiao Mu, and her gaze involuntarily flickered.
These two girls were rather gutsy. Even at this kind of time, they actually still hadn’t batted an eyelid.
But that was because they actually had true ability.
Che Ruman examined Qiao Mu and Qi Xuanxuan once more before withdrawing her gaze. She walked up to the scroll and left her signature with the brush, in addition to leaving her own seal in blood.
The other people in Che Ruman’s team also went up one by one to leave their blood seals and signatures before quietly stepping back.
After Qiao Mu and company followed suit, they turned around to see that there were two teams left who were still discussing and hesitating whether or not to sign.
Yet they saw Wei Xu abruptly putting away that Heavenly Law covenant with a firm attitude and declaring indifferently, “Alright, those who have signed the Heavenly Law covenant continue following me.”

The members of those two wavering teams got agitated. “Mentor, we have also decided to participate!”
“Time waits for no one. Be quicker next year.” After telling those crestfallen team members these two sentences, Wei Xu immediately set out deep into the Lava Mountain Range with the remaining 13 teams.
“I trust that the majority of you all who have remained should have decent mental toughness. Those people from earlier who got scared and withdrew from just a few sentences are not fit at all for this time’s large-scale trial.”
Suddenly, a rather large map appeared in his hands. After looking it over, he said, “Everyone follow me.”
“The Lava Mountain Range is divided into three large zones. The location of our trial this time is mainly going to be Zone One.”
“Also officially known as the Lava Mountain Range’s… interior.”
“Of course, entering this area can be considered a deep venture into the interior when comparing the periphery of the Lava Mountain Range.. But in actuality, it is not.”
