The leader of the alliance, Wang Wukui, glanced at the old man gratefully. Then he ordered: "Your name is Lu Chen, right? Congratulations on passing the first level of the heart-refining test. Our evaluation is excellent, and the next step is the strength test.
I hope you can keep up the good work!"
"Yes!" Lu Chen nodded in agreement. On the way, the observer surnamed Wang said. The assessment scores are: excellent, good, and poor. If there is a poor score, you will miss out on the candidate for alliance leader.
If you pass three levels and get a good reputation, you can become a candidate for alliance leader. However, your ranking will be very low, and the training and attention you receive will also become lower.
If you can get straight A's, your ranking will be higher. The more potential a person has, the more training and attention they will receive.
Candidate ranking is a comprehensive ranking of each person. The higher the candidate is, the greater the training will be.
The selection of alliance leader candidates starts within a hundred years of the term of the general alliance leader. We look for unskilled weapon geniuses from the Western Region and closes after a hundred years. Candidates who pass the three levels will be as many as they have. No more additions will be made.
, but will decrease.
There is another assessment every hundred years, and 30% of the candidates will be eliminated in each assessment. These eliminated candidates can continue to practice at the headquarters. They can also serve as branch leaders, and there is no requirement to leave.
After three hundred years, 90% of the candidates will be eliminated. In the last hundred years, the best person will be selected from the remaining 10% to take over the position of overall leader.
This complete set of procedures has been run by the Weapon Refining Alliance for tens of thousands of years. It has become very complete and errors rarely occur.
The contents of the three levels are not kept secret, so you can prepare in advance. The only thing is whether you can pass it and what kind of score you will get after passing it. That depends on your real talent and learning. If you want to fish in troubled waters, you are in the wrong place.
The leader of this year's general alliance is Wang Wukui. It is now a century-old selection. Eighty years have passed, and the selection will be canceled in twenty years. There are now thirty-five candidates, which is equivalent to thirty-five rankings.
The strength assessment for the second level is in the assessment hall not far away.
Lu Chen followed the thirteen people. Many people stopped to watch along the way. Then everyone went about their business. These people were all very strong.
But they are also very busy, just like Earth's scientific researchers. Apart from their own research and refining, they basically don't care about other things.
Even if you pay a little attention, it's just for a moment.
There won't be that kind of crowd watching, after all, this is not a sect power that respects its strength. This is the Weapon Refining Alliance, the basic base of the Qi Xuan Sect, a holy place for a group of like-minded weapon masters, and the men and women here are all improving.
Focus on your own weapon refining skills and hope to become a master!
What a lovely bunch of people!
This is what Lu Chen said about them!
There are three portals in the assessment hall. Each portal reads: Heart Refining, Strength Refining, and Weapon Refining. It is simple, clear and easy to understand.
Wang Wukui pointed to the portal of strength and said: "Lu Chen, you can go in and perform well!"
"yes!"
After Lu Chen saluted Wang Wukui and the twelve Supreme Elders, he walked into the portal marked with strength.
It was said to be a portal, but it was just a layer of light. Lu Chen went directly through it, but Lu Chen's figure appeared in the light. The guards had prepared thirteen chairs for Wang Wukui and the twelve Supreme Elders to sit down.
.
You can see Lu Chen's performance score in the photo mask.
Lu Chen felt as if he had traveled through time and space after passing through the portal. He knew in his heart that the portal was a teleportation formation. Looking up, he saw that it was a sandy space. The ground was made of sand, and there were dots of bright lights in the sky.
It was just these bright lights that allowed Lu Chen to see his surroundings clearly. It gave Lu Chen a strange feeling, as if these eyes were hidden in the light. Lu Chen felt like he was being spied on, but he didn't care.
Strength assessment is nothing more than an assessment of a person's comprehensive combat effectiveness. After all, the level of a weapon master is linked to one's own realm. And the strength of one's strength requires the support of one's realm.
The relationship between the three is mutually reinforcing. If one party fails, the other two parties will not be able to think about it.
Lu Chen took a step forward, and the ground suddenly trembled. A bright light above his head suddenly descended rapidly and melted into the sand thirty meters away from Lu Chen.
Then in Lu Chen's eyes, the bright spots and the sand quickly merged. A sand warrior as tall as a person appeared in Lu Chen's sight. He was said to be a warrior, but Lu Chen knew that this was a puppet warrior.
It can only be defeated but not killed. That highlight is its driving core and part of the entire assessment space.
As soon as the puppet warrior's body shook, the body of sand and earth condensed. The aura it displayed was the same as that of Lu Chen, who was in the middle stage of the magician. And in its hands, it also held a pair of giant sand and earth hammers.
Rumbling footsteps sounded, and the puppet warrior charged towards Lu Chen.
Lu Chen's Four Arts Demon surpasses the existence of the Grandmaster. Just by looking at it, you can know the weakness of this puppet. It is the bright spot on the heart. Just hit the bright spot out of the sand body and it will be killed!
Lu Chen made a move with his right hand, and a fifth-level high-grade magic sword appeared in his right hand. On the hilt of the sword, there was Lu Chen's exclusive mark. His feet tapped slightly on the ground, and his body turned into an afterimage.
Passing by the rushing puppet warrior, Lu Chen's body appeared ten meters behind the puppet warrior.
The puppet warrior, however, kept its charging posture unchanged. But between its body and Lu Chen, lying quietly on the ground, was a shiny hexagonal rhombus crystal.
But the puppet warrior turned into a handful of sand in the next second.
"This sword is very good, fast, accurate and ruthless!"
"Although he doesn't have any moves, his judgment is accurate and his landing point is steady and ruthless! He's a good seer!"
"Not bad, not bad."
The thirteen people sitting in the assessment hall looked at Lu Chen's actions on the mask. They all nodded in appreciation, and Wang Wukui also nodded with satisfaction.
The bright spots on the ground shook slightly, and then the group of bright spots above the head landed again. Then behind Lu Chen, they once again condensed into a puppet warrior as tall as one person. It's just that this time the strength of the puppet warrior has been improved to the late stage of the magician.
.
Moreover, the weakness of this puppet warrior also changed from one to two. Still holding the giant hammer in both hands, he charged at Lu Chen again. This time the charge was faster and more powerful.
With a smile on his lips, Lu Chen twisted his body. He suddenly passed by the puppet warrior, but Lu Chen's sword move was blocked by a giant hammer.
“Interesting!”
The attack did not work, so Lu Chen did not worry. Instead, he stepped forward again and fought with the puppet warrior. As the sand and dust flew, three moves passed.
When the sand fell, there was no figure of the puppet warrior on the ground. There were only two diamond-shaped crystals lying quietly on the ground.
"Have you seen the origin of this kid's moves?"
"No, it's a bit like a wild road. It also means a bit of great simplicity!"
"I also feel that it has the charm of great simplicity, but I shouldn't! From the intelligence point of view, this Lu Chen is obviously just a casual practitioner of a magician!"
"It's not that it shouldn't be done, it's simply impossible. Even if you and I are both strong men in the Demon Lord realm, we still don't have the ability.
Do you think you already have this little doll? I think this little doll must have understood the artistic conception of kendo. Only in this way can complexity be reduced to simplicity, and the charm of simplicity can be achieved."
"Yeah, it's possible!"
Among the thirteen people in the outside world, several people got into a quarrel. Wang Wukui and the first general leader did not interrupt, but they were very satisfied with Lu Chen's performance.
If you fight against a puppet warrior of the same level and fail, it is bad. If you defeat a puppet warrior of the same level, it is good. If you can defeat a puppet warrior who is one level higher than your own, it is excellent. If you can defeat a puppet warrior who is two levels higher than your own, it is double.
excellent!
Double excellence means that even if you fail one test, you can still use it to pass. If you can defeat a puppet warrior who is three levels higher than yourself. That is a perfect excellence. Even if you fail to refine your mind and weapon, you can become
A straight-A candidate.
Although the selection of candidates depends on three aspects of assessment, whether it is mind refining or weapon refining, they can all be improved through acquired efforts. Only strength is the foundation.
The stronger the strength and the higher the state, the longer you will naturally live. The longer you live, the more time you have to study the art of weapon refining and the time to temper your mind.
So when a puppet warrior of the Great Perfection of the Magician appeared in the mask screen, the elders who were arguing just now suddenly became silent. They all looked at it expectantly, hoping that the handsome figure inside could complete the whole task.
Excellent feat.
After all, among the thirty-five candidates, only one has almost accomplished this feat. He has already been recognized by many supreme elders as the next leader of the alliance.
The three diamond-shaped crystals merged with the sand, just as Lu Chen expected. What appeared in front of him was a puppet warrior of the Magician's Dzogchen. The three bright spots were on its forehead, chest, and waist.
A huge coercion enveloped Lu Chen, and the huge double hammers touched lightly. The air exploded, and they rushed toward Lu Chen forcefully.
Lu Chen's eyes changed from casual to focused. At the same time, the demonic energy in his body was roaring.
Rubbing his feet together, an afterimage was left on the ground. After his body avoided the attack of the two hammers, he appeared on the left rear of the puppet warrior. The magic sword in his hand stabbed hard at the highlight of the puppet warrior's waist.
It's just that the magician's puppet warrior's reaction speed and magic activity have increased too much. Lu Chen's magic sword was shaken away by the powerful force, and Lu Chen's body was also shaken back.
But the puppet warrior rushed forward again, clearing the way with both hammers and continuing to hit Lu Chen.
The gap in realm led to an imbalance in power between the two. If it were a human being, it would have weaknesses because of its thoughts. So Lu Chen was confident that he could win the battle, but he encountered a puppet warrior who had no pain-sensing thoughts.
Lu Chen could only try to find opportunities to defeat it bit by bit.
The two figures were tossing and turning in the sand, and Lu Chen was at a disadvantage from the beginning. It was just a magic sword, and it was impenetrable when used by Lu Chen. Even if the puppet warrior had the upper hand, it could not break through Lu Chen's defense.
.
Every attack of Lu Chen was blocked again and again by the puppet warriors. It seemed that they were all in vain, but Lu Chen didn't have any discouraged look on his face. Instead, his eyes became more focused and his offensive became stronger and stronger.
"This kid is completely a fighting madman who was delayed by his weapons!"
"Who says it's not the case! He is the first weapon master I have seen with such a strong practical ability."
"If you are not strong, can you become the successor of an extraordinary master?"
"Why do I feel that his actual combat ability is stronger than Chen Wuyi?"
"It's not a feeling, it's a fact. Even if Chen Wuyi's level of strength has broken through the magician level, if he is in the same level as Lu Chen.
Lu Chen was able to defeat him. When he took the assessment, he relied on the nine magic swords and the sword formation to last for so long. But Lu Chen is really powerful in combat!"
"Understanding the sword formation is also part of the strength!"
"Old Monster Dong, let me remind you. The candidate for alliance leader is held in a fair and just manner. You can't favor Chen Wuyi just because you have a good relationship with him. If I find out, don't blame me for not caring about friendship.
Got it!"
"Bah! Mr. Zhang, you are such a slut! I, Dong Feihong, am not that kind of person!"
"Okay, stop arguing!"
The crowd was so noisy that two of them almost staged a full-scale martial arts show.
The others quickly stopped, but the two of them stared at each other.
Wang Wukui looked for help and glanced at the first general leader. Nalan Cheng, the first general leader, stared and shouted: "That's enough!"
The whole place suddenly fell silent. Dong Feihong and Zhang Hua were still glaring at each other but did not say anything. Nalan Cheng still had to give him some face.
Nalan Cheng said in a deep voice: "I don't care how you get along with or even interact with these candidates. I would like to remind you here, don't forget the former Wang Zhan. How did he die and why did he die?
.You all can think clearly, I hope you won’t make mistakes!”
As soon as the name "Wang Zhan" came out, even Dong Feihong and Zhang Hua's hearts were beating wildly and they no longer dared to say anything harsh. Even their eyes became frightened. The name Wang Zhan was the most popular in the Weapon Refining Alliance.
A taboo.
Only Nalan Cheng dared to mention it, and only he would. Because this person was his disciple, an ambitious man who wanted to turn the Weapon Refining Alliance into his own private property. It was he who secretly cultivated the candidates of that class and transformed himself into
His son became the number one existence.
At that time, several people who were better than his son died inexplicably when they were traveling or hunting for treasures, but there is no airtight wall in the world. In the end, the incident came to light and he was executed by Nalan Cheng.
Nalan Cheng's disciples and his family, as well as the Wang family, which were already somewhat decadent, were all destroyed by Na Lan Cheng. Therefore, in today's Weapon Refining Alliance, these supreme elders never mention the third general leader.
things.
And Wang Zhan's incident was also regarded as a wake-up call by various Supreme Elders and the current leader of the alliance. After all, they colluded with candidates and suppressed other candidates.
This is a serious crime that will lead to death, and as soon as you are discovered, you will be attacked in groups. At that time, it will not matter whether you were the former leader of the alliance, or whether you are the supreme elder.
