I don't dare to oppose a protagonist anymore

Chapter 13.1

The School Opening Ceremony ended.
Practically all the new students were muttering and musing, dissatisfied that as soon as they entered the school, they immediately had to take a test. But those were just words, because it was the headmaster who decided it.
What was the use of opposing?
Lin Xiao was still uncertain on whether to go with Ling Luo or not. After a long time of pondering, he ultimately decided to stay with him, because even though the situation would be dangerous, they would also get many opportunities.
How can he become powerful if he was already scared by such a small thing?
If he died… it meant that he had bad luck… after all, luck was also a kind of strength.

Next morning, they got up at the crack of dawn to get ready. The new students were all amassed in the academy, while the headmaster was standing in front of them: “The Refinement Fire Test will be very dangerous, so much that some of you may lose your lives. So… you can choose to withdraw. I am letting you withdraw now, in this way you won’t need to drop out of Yunqi Academy.”
After listening to her sentence, some students looked at each other, others were restless, because in their opinion, living was extremely important. And also, they didn’t have to quit the school, which was delightful.
“Yet!” the headmaster’s tone got more serious, smashing those people’s ideas: “I tell you, students who want to withdraw, you don’t have any qualifications to become powerful! The road of cultivation is extremely long, how can it be smooth and easy and make you immediately powerful? If you can’t even overcome a little bit of hardship, tell me, do you have any qualifications to become powerful? Some people may say, ‘My clan has money and influence, I don’t need to be worried if I can’t advance…’ Right, Dan Pills can also make you advance, but can you be sure that the level will reach your cultivation? Can you be sure that you will be able to beat a person who is of the same rank?”
This speech calmed down those people who had the intention to withdraw from the test.
Who didn’t want to become powerful?

Who was willing to fall behind?
They weren’t!
The headmaster smiled while looking at the well-behaved students who lowered their heads, and then yelled: “So, now, are there still people who want to withdraw?”
Everyone shook their head.
“Talk!” shouted the headmaster.
“No one!” a loud and clear shout resounded throughout the Yunqi Academy during the early morning.
……
The forest wasn’t far away from the school, in fact, after a short span of time, they already reached the forest’s entrance.
