"Oh? I wonder if Brother Huiyi needs my help in any way?" Zhou Xing also looked confused.
Hui Yi struggled for a while, and then said in a firm and slightly pleading tone: "The first place in the examination of the disciples of Xiyoumen can bring a servant with him. I hope that the master can bring me with him. I know that this request is unreasonable.
But I will definitely be loyal to you from now on!"
Zhou Xing was stunned. Seeing the pleading expression on Hui Yi's face, he couldn't help but ask: "I think brother Hui Yi's life is not rich, but there is no problem in having enough food and clothing. Why would you rather think about it?"
Do you want to follow me?"
Upon hearing this, Hui Yi immediately said: "Young master, I don't know something. Hui Yi was abandoned by my parents when I was young. It was my master who brought me up and taught me how to survive. But not long ago, my master was killed by a warrior, but I didn't do anything for him."
Master’s ability to take revenge.”
When Hui Yi said this, he seemed to think of his master. He paused and clenched his hands unconsciously, his eyes full of hatred and helplessness.
Zhou Xing did not interrupt, and Hui Yi looked at Zhou Xing for a while and continued: "Young Master is the most talented and powerful young man I have ever seen, so I want to follow you. I just hope that Young Master can give me a revenge in the future."
Chance."
Zhou Xing looked at Hui Yi's determined face, and then thought about his own experience, but he also felt the same way. But it was the first time Zhou Xing encountered this kind of thing, and he didn't know what to do.
"Accept him! Although this kid is only at the fourth level of physical training at the age of fifteen, his talent is still good, but it has not been revealed yet. Besides, you will have your own power in the future, and the people you accept now are more loyal.
It's guaranteed." Axzu suddenly interrupted.
Zhou Xing doesn't have much idea of his own power yet, but for the time being, he still quite recognizes Hui Yi.
"Okay, then you can follow me from now on! But you don't have to be a servant, we can treat each other as brothers." Zhou Xing agreed under the anxious gaze of Hui Yi.
After hearing this, Hui Yi looked happy, and then he raised his hands with a little respect and said: "Thank you, Master. How dare Hui Yi match up with the brothers of the Master? It's better to be different from top to bottom."
Zhou Xing did not accept this trick. He only wanted to be pleasing to others, so he continued: "Brother in gray clothes, you don't have to be like this, otherwise I won't want you to follow me."
Hui Yi was also moved when he heard this, and secretly sighed that he was not with the wrong person. He also said stubbornly: "Then I will call you big brother from now on, otherwise I will not have the shame to follow you."
"Hahaha, okay, then you will be my brother Zhou Xing from now on." Zhou Xing was very happy to have a brother and friend for the first time.
"Hahaha, Huiyi has met eldest brother..."
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Zhou Xing and Hui Yi were walking on the road leading to the Lingcheng school ground. People around them kept rushing towards the school ground with excited faces.
The news that Xiyoumen is coming to recruit disciples has spread throughout Lingcheng in the past three days, and many people want to take this opportunity to send their children to Xiyoumen.
Hui Yi also sold his house and spent the past few days with Zhou Xing. During the day, he went out to collect some information about Xiyoumen's recruitment of disciples, while Zhou Xing continued to practice. In the evening, the two would chat about everything.
Also understand each other better.
"Brother, I recently found out that the leader who came to Lingcheng to recruit disciples this time is a very strict elder, so this time the disciple assessment depends entirely on one's own strength. Of course, with the strength of eldest brother, in Lingcheng
It should be unmatched by anyone in the same generation."
It can be seen from Hui Yi's words that he has great confidence in Zhou Xing, but few people can use the obsidian on Zhou Xing's back freely.
"Oh! Then do you know the contents of the examination for the disciples Xiyoumen will recruit this time?" Zhou Xing asked.
Hearing this, Hui Yi scratched his head and said: "Brother, I heard that there are three levels for recruiting disciples this time. The first is to test the bone age, the second is to test the realm, and the third is to test the actual combat. All the disciples to be recruited this time are those who are sixteen years old and have not reached the physical training realm.
Those who are at the seventh level will not be accepted, and then those who are fifteen years old must reach the sixth level of the physical training realm, and those who are fourteen years old must reach the fifth level of the physical training realm. Those older than sixteen years old will not be accepted..."
When Zhou Xing heard the information told by Hui Yi, he felt calm in his heart. After all, it was not a challenge to him.
Over a cup of tea, Zhou Xing and his wife arrived at the Lingcheng school grounds. At this moment, the school grounds were already crowded with people. Most of the men, women, and children from Lingcheng were here, and they all wanted to have a glimpse of the sect elders.
The Lingcheng campus is surrounded by circular stairs with exits in eight directions, and in the middle is an open space of nearly a thousand square meters.
Zhou Xing and the two finally found a step that was not crowded and sat down. At a glance, the steps in all directions were almost full of people.
In the middle of the school grounds, there is a row of stone tablets with the word "bone" written on them. Not far behind, there is the same row of stone tablets, but with the word "jing" written on them. There are some seats and records next to the stone tablets.
paper and pen, as well as the guards at the city lord's mansion to maintain order.
"Brother, the stone tablet with the word "Bone" written on it is a stone tablet for measuring bone age, and the stone tablet with the word "Jing" written on it is a stone tablet for measuring realm." Just when Zhou Xing looked at those stone tablets with confusion, Hui Yi beside him quickly spoke up.
explained.
"Who do you think will be the first among the disciples Xiyoumen recruits this time?"
"Needless to say, it must be either the young master of the Li family or the daughter of the Liu family!"
"That's not necessarily the case. I heard that the young city lord's cultivation has increased greatly recently, and he may have a chance to take first place. Uh! Look, the city lord and the others are here..."
"Dong...dong...dong"
Zhou Xing was listening to the discussions of people around him, when suddenly a big drum was brought up from the school grounds. At this time, it was beaten slowly and slowly, and the crowd suddenly became quiet, and figures began to appear in the passage representing the direction of the city lord.
.
Finally, the figures in the passage gradually appeared in people's eyes. The leader was a half-century old man wearing a blue robe with a silver stripe embroidered on the right side of the chest and a serious expression.
Behind the old man were two young men, a man and a woman. They were handsome but slightly arrogant. They wore the same robes as the old man, except that they did not have the silver stripe on their chests.
Immediately behind them was He Feng, the Lord of Ling City, and beside him was He Xu, whom Zhou Xing had met before. Although the two of them were quite well-behaved at this time, many people still saw pride in their eyes.
"Strange! How did He Xu reach the eighth level of the body training realm?" Zhou Xing suddenly used the Breath Condensation Technique to detect the fluctuations in He Xu's realm, and he couldn't help but be confused.
"Hahaha, boy, his realm is illusory. He should have used that spiritual material in advance. Your plan to use the beauty trick has failed!" Ax Zu explained.
Only then did Zhou Xing understand. However, with He Xu's combat prowess, Zhou Xing would still have nothing to fear even if he was promoted to the spirit-gathering realm. Moreover, since he was about to enter the sect, a spiritual material was no longer needed for him.
Then He Feng and others walked to a few seats on the side of the school ground, and the old man and others sat down first.
When He Feng saw this, he immediately walked out and said loudly to everyone: "Dear citizens of Lingcheng, today Elder Yan of the Xiyou Sect and two young outer disciples came to Lingcheng to recruit disciples. As long as your
If your children are talented, they can enter the sect to practice, and from then on they will be a glorious family member!"
"oh oh…"
When the people around heard this, their emotions suddenly rose and they began to cheer. Elder Yan still looked solemn, but the two outer disciples raised their heads higher.
He Feng seemed to be very satisfied with the performance of the crowd. He pressed his hands and continued: "Okay, today's assessment process will be carried out in accordance with the notice posted yesterday. Now I ask all young talents to line up and quickly enter the assessment process."
After He Feng finished speaking, he walked up to Elder Yan and said something. Then Elder Yan nodded, and He Feng returned to sit behind the three of them, and started talking to He Xu again.
People saw that the recordkeeper and others at the stone monument were already in place, so many young people began to go to the school grounds and began to line up.
Seeing this, Zhou Xing also got up and walked towards the school ground. Hui Yi looked at Zhou Xing's back, clenched his fists, and his eyes were full of determination: "Brother, I believe you can get the first place!"
There are many stone tablets that test bone age and realm, so even though there are many people taking the test, the queues are not very long.
Among the various queues, there are three queues that are the focus of attention.
One of them was He Xu's team. At this time, he looked very proud and looked down upon his peers who were taking part in the test. However, Zhou Xing found that his eyes would glance at the girl from Xi Youmen from time to time.
disciple.
Zhou Xing looked at the inexplicable sense of superiority between the two and secretly laughed in his heart that they seemed to be a good match.
Another line that attracts attention is headed by a handsome young man dressed in white. He is Li Xuan, the son of the Li family, one of the two richest people in Lingcheng. Obviously, the third focus is the daughter of the Liu family, one of the two rich people.
Liu Yu is gone.
Liu Yu was wearing a long blue dress today, with a pretty face and a smile. Apart from the disciple of Xi Youmen, she was the most outstanding woman.
Due to the strong power of the city lord's palace, although the Li and Liu families are the two richest people in Lingcheng, they usually keep a low profile. Therefore, Li Xuan and Liu Yu rarely appear on various occasions in Lingcheng, and in people's eyes they are just
It's become a bit mysterious.
Zhou Xing could tell at a glance that Li Xuan and Liu Yu were at the seventh level of the body forging realm with the help of the Breath Condensation Technique, and it seemed that they were not far from the eighth level of the body forging realm, but their realms were much more solid than He Xu's.
.
"Zhang Xing, you are sixteen years old. Take this certificate and go to the realm measurement monument at the back to test your realm."
When the test began, Zhou Xing saw a young man put his hand on the stone tablet for testing bone age, and the number sixteen was immediately displayed on it. Then the recorder gave him a piece of paper and asked him to go to the back to test the realm.
"Zhang Xing, the fifth level of the body training realm, failed!" The young man was full of disappointment after hearing this. He had a bit of luck, but the fact could not be changed.
Seeing that the test was so simple, the people behind them all showed expressions of novelty and anticipation. However, Zhou Xing thought of the assessment requirements mentioned by Hui Yi. It was estimated that these people were taking chances.
"Wang Wei, fifteen years old, sixth level of the body forging realm, passed the test! Li Feng, fifteen years old, fifth level of the body forging realm, failed..."
A considerable number of the next people were unqualified. It seemed that everyone wanted to give it a try. After all, the test did not cost anything.
"Li Xuan, fifteen years old, seventh level of physical training, qualified!"
"Liu Yu, fifteen years old, seventh level of body training, qualified!"
"He Xu, fifteen years old, eighth level of physical training, qualified!"
Soon, the test results of the three eye-catching people came out, and an uproar ensued.
"As expected of the young city lord, he actually has the strength of the eighth level of the Body Forging Realm at the age of fifteen. This is the genius of our Lingcheng."
"Tch, why are you so proud? He Xu just relied on his father to be the city lord and used spiritual materials to increase his realm. Li Xuan and Liu Yu cultivated themselves."
"That's also because the Young City Lord's realm is higher..."
These discussions came and went. Li Xuan and Liu Yu didn't seem to care about it, but He Xu looked more arrogant. Only He Feng secretly scolded He Xu as a waste in his heart, because he knew how his son got to this state.
Finally, Zhou Xing began to test. He put his hand on the stone tablet and felt a cool air circulate in his hand, and then the number fourteen appeared on the stone tablet.
"Okay, here's your voucher, go to the back!"
Zhou Xing took a certificate from the recorder stating that he was fourteen years old and walked towards the stone tablet for measuring the realm.
When the recorder looked at the fourteen-year-old certificate in his hand and the number seven on the stone tablet, he was stunned for a while and then said loudly: "Zhou Xing, fourteen years old, seventh level of physical training, qualified!"
"What? There is actually someone more talented than Li Xuan and the others! Who is Zhou Xing this time?"
"When the news comes out this week, doesn't it mean that there will be suspense on the first day of Lingcheng?"
The discussion caused more people to focus on the young man carrying a heavy ax, but most people said they did not know Zhou Xing.
Li Xuan and Liu Yu glanced at Zhou Xing curiously, while He Xu was not interested in the sudden appearance of Zhou Xing, and even looked at Zhou Xing with his eyes that became unkind.
"Who is this Zhou Xing? There is no one named Zhou in Lingcheng. Could it be that he came from other cities?" He Feng looked at Zhou Xing with a puzzled look on his face, constantly guessing about his origins.
Zhou Xing was indifferent to everyone's discussions and speculations. He just walked silently to the people who had passed the test and quietly began to wait for the next assessment.
Elder Yan, who had been sitting upright in front of He Feng, suddenly raised his head and glanced at Zhou Xing. When he saw him waiting silently and the heavy ax obsidian behind him, Elder Yan's eyes flashed: "Haha... finally there is something interesting.
The little guy..."
When the scorching sun was in the sky, the test of bone age and realm had ended. There were only thirty-three young people in Lingcheng who had passed the test. I have to say that there were a lot of people who wanted to fish in troubled waters, but they were still tested for bone age in the end.
The stone tablet with the realm has returned to its original shape.
The city guards removed both kinds of stone tablets, and a large open space suddenly formed in the middle of the school grounds.
"Dong...dong..."
At this time, Elder Yan suddenly waved his hand, and eight small arenas appeared out of thin air and landed on the open space one by one. Facing this scene, many people were surprised, and only a few knowledgeable people understood what was going on.
"This arena can actually grow from small to large?" Zhou Xing couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Knowing Zhou Xing's doubts, Ax Ancestor immediately explained: "This is just a yellow-level spiritual weapon. It can only be changed in size by adding special ores. It has no combat capabilities."
"That's it!" Zhou Xing also understood, and then he looked at He Feng who stood up again and was about to speak.
