The first time I said let it go, it was still reasonable.
But the second time, Broken Blade obviously tried his best, but still lost to Lin Chen, which can be described as terrifying.
"Illusion?"
"Looks like a tough nail!"
"This boy's cultivation is obviously weaker than Brother Duandao, so why can he easily defeat Brother Duandao? Is there something fishy about the sword in that boy's hand?"
"That kid must have a magic weapon to rely on. Otherwise, with his strength, how could he be the opponent of the Broken Knife brothers?"
…
Feng Ying and others were shocked to the extreme, and then they became deeply suspicious.
"Hall Master, am I sure you read it correctly?" Jian Hai asked in shock.
"You read that right, this little guy is indeed a real person without showing his face!" Jian Qiu's eyes flickered, as if he had discovered a treasure, he was surprised and admired at the same time.
"I know that little brother's strength is not simple, but I didn't expect that he could be so strong that he even defeated Broken Sword. It seems that there is no need for you, Hall Master, to make an exception." Jian Hai thought of what he had said before.
Lin Chen was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat when they fought.
At this time!
Lin Chen put away his sword, cupped his fists and said, "I'm offended!"
Hear the sound!
Duandao woke up from his frustration, stood up slowly, looked directly at Lin Chen, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You won, I am convinced that I lost, forgive me for being disrespectful to you before."
"That's serious." Lin Chen smiled slightly.
"There is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. I sit in a well and look at the sky. I am too self-righteous. If there is a chance in the future, you and I will have a good discussion and say goodbye!" Duandao sighed.
"Wait!" Jian Qiu suddenly said: "Although the number of places is limited, both of you are rare talents. Personally, I don't want you to miss this Hidden Dragon Festival."
"I have lost, this is the rule." Duandao looked sad. Although it was a pity to lose to Lin Chen, it would be a huge regret to miss the Hidden Dragon Festival.
"The rules are set by people. You should stay and wait for the good news. As the leader of Jianyun Hall, it is no problem to get an extra spot for you." Jian Qiu said sternly.
"Thank you, Hall Master!" Duandao was overjoyed and said to Lin Chen: "Brother Xingyan, although I lost to you this time, if Hidden Dragon Sheng is lucky enough to fight you again, I will definitely defeat you!"
"I'm looking forward to it too." Lin Chen smiled.
Feng Ying and the others had a bitter look on their faces. It turned out that Lin Chen and Duan Dao both got the Qianlong Ranking to compete for spots, which meant that they lost two chances for spots.
"Okay, the Hidden Dragon Festival is here, I will arrange a room for you to retreat, and you will go to Jianzong with me tomorrow." Jianqiu ordered: "Xiaohai, take little brother Xingyan to register first."
"Yes, little brother, please come this way." Jianhai was quite friendly and respectful. This is the treatment of a strong man.
"Thank you." Lin Chen followed.
As soon as Lin Chen left, Feng Ying asked in confusion: "Brother Duandao, are you sure you didn't release the water?"
"If you have doubts, you can go and ask him for advice." Duandao rolled his eyes, feeling depressed in his heart.
"Uh..." Feng Ying looked embarrassed. Everyone looked at each other in disbelief. He was easily defeated even with his broken sword. Wouldn't they bring shame on themselves if they challenge Lin Chen again?
Soon!
After Lin Chen registered, he was arranged to a secret room with a small spirit gathering array. In addition, Jianyun City was a natural treasure, so it was naturally rich in spiritual energy and very suitable for meditation.
Lin Chen didn't want to cause trouble in vain, he just wanted to retreat quietly and try to improve his strength as much as he could before the Hidden Dragon Festival. Anyway, not a minute of time could be wasted.
…
The next day!
Lin Chen was awakened by the sword sea early, got up and left the secret room.
After a whole night of meditation, Lin Chen's cultivation improved slightly.
"Little brother, you are so secretive. You even defeated me with Broken Sword." Jianhai smiled and said, "It was my honor to be defeated by you before."
"You're welcome." Lin Chen smiled and asked, "By the way, there are many participants in this Hidden Dragon Festival. How are the rules of the competition conducted?"
"Except for the predetermined quotas, all other contestants must be eliminated through auditions!" Jianhai said seriously: "After all, there are many contestants, and our Jianzong, as the organizer, must also relieve the pressure."
"What are the rules for auditions?" Lin Chen asked again.
"Actually, just like the peripheral assessment, our Sword Sect will set up many tests to select the most elite warriors. With your strength, it is not difficult to pass the test." Jianhai said with a smile.
"Just do your best." Lin Chen nodded slightly.
From time to time!
Arriving at the lobby, Jianqiu, Duandao and other outstanding warriors have been waiting for a long time.
The difference from yesterday was that Duandao and the others looked at Lin Chen obviously differently, especially Duandao who greeted Lin Chen with a smile on his face.
"Master, I'm sorry, I kept you waiting for a long time." Lin Chen said with cupped hands.
"It's not too late." Jian Qiu said calmly: "Although everyone present is a martial artist, the Hidden Dragon Festival is fair. Here, I congratulate you on your great achievements and becoming a truly world-famous knight! Of course, our Sword Sect has always
Recruiting talents, if you are willing to become a disciple of our Sword Sect, I will also strongly recommend it to you!"
A disciple of the Sword Sect?
There is not much temptation for the martial arts warrior who lives alone.
Jian Qiu also understood the temperament of Jianghu warriors and said without further words: "If you have no objections, follow me to Jianzong immediately. But I want to remind everyone that Jianzong is different from Jianghu. Everything follows the rules of Jianzong.
Otherwise, you will be severely punished!"
"Yes!" everyone responded.
Soon!
Jian Qiu was in charge of leading the team, and Lin Chen and others followed. Yukong headed to Jianzong in high spirits and glory.
Jian Yunfeng!
Stretching to the peaks, it is majestic and domineering. Those who are not familiar with the terrain may get lost in Jian Yunfeng.
Jianyunfeng is also a good place for treasure hunting, containing countless heavenly and earthly treasures, rare and rare beasts, and ancient ruins. However, generally only the disciples of the Sword Sect are active in Jianyunfeng.
Sword Sect!
As the largest sect in the Heavenly Sword Region, it is naturally not easy to find.
Where Jian Zong is located, there are many secret formations and illusions, and even a strong man in the Dragon Transformation Realm may not be able to find the mountain gate of Jian Zong.
There are even rumors that the Sword Sect is established on the peak of the clouds, but the clouds and mist are lingering in the sword cloud front. If you want to find the Sword Sect, you will undoubtedly be looking for a needle in a haystack.
As the leader of the Jianyun Hall, Jianqiu also has certain authority in the Jianzong. He led Lin Chen and the others through the clouds and mists, and over many strange peaks.
Lin Chen and the others were full of surprise, admiring the magnificent mountains and rivers in front of them.
Perhaps because he was approaching the Jianzong Mountain Gate, Lin Chen faintly sensed many powerful auras gathering in front of him. The thought of being able to compete with powerful men from all over the world in martial arts was unavoidably exciting.
soon!
Jian Qiu said solemnly: "As we approach our sect's holy land, there is a forbidden formation outside. We must walk on foot! Remember to follow my footsteps to avoid accidentally touching the forbidden formation."
Finished!
Jian Qiu led Lin Chen and the others down slowly towards a winding and rugged mountain road. With jagged rocks, deep valleys, and overgrown weeds, it felt like they had entered a natural maze.
Lin Chen and the others seemed quite cautious, carefully following Jian Qiu's footsteps.
After grinding around for a long time, I finally heard a faint noise. As martial artists, Lin Chen and the others did not have predetermined quotas like each sect, so naturally they were ranked last.
Lin Chen was excited and said to himself: "With Yao'er's strength, she should be able to get a spot in the Hidden Dragon Festival. It's been so long, and I really miss her."
certainly!
There are also friends that Lin Chen is familiar with, and we should be able to meet them too.
See you at first sight!
Under a majestic front, there is a towering and majestic mountain gate.
The three words "Jianmen Mountain" are quite eye-catching and full of momentum, which creates a strong sense of intimidation and gives people a sense of sacredness and inviolability.
See!
At the foot of Jianmen Mountain, a huge crowd, up to a thousand people, was gathering, rustling and noisily discussing.
On Jianmen Mountain, there are countless stone steps extending straight to the sky, which is the masterpiece of Jianzong's gate and a great wonder in Tianjian Domain, the ladder to the sky.
In the past, the Sword Sect opened its gates to recruit disciples. As long as they could climb the ladder to the sky and pass numerous tests, they would be qualified to become disciples of the Sword Sect.
As for the contestants of the Hidden Dragon Festival, each sect has a few predetermined quotas and can be exempted from the peripheral test. In a sense, it is unfair.
As the host, the Sword Sect is very powerful. There are many contestants in this sect, and there are hundreds of them if you don’t count the reserved quota.
Lin Chen couldn't wait and searched carefully among the vast crowd.
really!
A slim and graceful figure stood out like a flock of chickens, and caught Lin Chen's eyes dazzlingly.
"Yao'er!" Lin Chen was overjoyed. Sure enough, he saw the daughter-in-law he had been longing for day and night. However, due to his identity, Lin Chen could not recognize Qin Yao for the time being.
then!
Lin Chen saw many acquaintances in the crowd, such as Yunyue from Fenyun Valley, Mingyue from Dao Sect, Huang Yanxuan, his friend from Sword Sect, opponents at the weapon refining event, and among the four major families in Piaomiao Domain.
people.
What surprised Lin Chen even more was that it was the Beast Control Pavilion of his current master's school.
Sima Tianqi received the inheritance from the Immortal Tomb, and his cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds. He was able to overcome the calamity and gather pills in a short period of time, and Lin Chen was not surprised to get a spot on the Hidden Dragon Ranking.
On the contrary, Dugu Xue, Dugu Chong and Su Meng, these three former good partners, actually increased their cultivation greatly and successfully obtained the quota for the Hidden Dragon Festival.
All of a sudden!
When Lin Chen saw his beloved woman and familiar brothers and friends, he was inevitably excited. But Lin Chen now represented the identity of a warrior in the world, so he had to control his emotions.
at the same time!
Qin Yao and others who knew Lin Chen well were also searching carefully in the crowd, but it would be difficult to find traces of Lin Chen.
Since the Hidden Dragon Ranking and the Hidden Dragon Ranking are two completely different rankings, with obvious levels of strength, it depends on how the Sword Sect formulates the assessment rules?
However, there are only 50 final places in the two lists. Presumably the peripheral elimination assessment is not easy, and most of the contestants should be eliminated first. 15
