Ximen Yu and Shi Yang stayed at Su Xingzhi's training place not long before they left.
"Brother Ximen, the annual assessment will be held in less than two months. Are you confident that you will win the crown?" Shi Yang asked.
"Haha, the important thing is to participate. I didn't think about getting a good ranking."
"Brother Ximen's mentality is just good, so it's okay. Let's just say goodbye." Shi Yang said goodbye.
"Yeah, see you later." Ximenyu responded.
More than two days passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, although Ximenyu was always working hard to practice, he found that the results were minimal, and neither the techniques nor the realm were at all affected.
"Alas, it seems that cultivation will become more and more difficult in the future." Ximenyu said helplessly.
"No matter what, let's take the annual assessment first. Alas, it's really boring to compete all day long." Ximenyu sighed.
When Ximenyu arrived at the assessment competition site, almost all the elders and disciples were there.
"Dear elders and disciples, one year has passed and the time has come to test everyone's cultivation achievements. This year's assessment is the same as usual. Last year's annual ranking is the pre-ranking for this assessment. You can challenge those with higher rankings at will.
As long as the challenge is successful, you will get the corresponding ranking. Now, I would like to ask Elder Qi to say a few words to you." Zhenqiu Elder Yi Ning said.
After Elder Yi Ning finished speaking, thunderous applause suddenly erupted. After two months of spreading and fermentation, the news that Qi Zhouzi assisted Dean Wuliang in defeating the Sound Demon was known to everyone. It can be said that Qi Zhouzi is now in the Imperial Academy.
His reputation is soaring, and he is the idol and goal of almost all cultivating disciples.
"Disciples, I'm glad to see you are so enthusiastic. Cultivation is extremely boring, so every progress is worth celebrating. I hope everyone will go smoothly in the assessment and improve their skills." Qi Zhouzi said with a smile.
"Bah bang." Everyone applauded.
"Thank you, Elder Qi. Now I announce that the assessment has officially begun." Elder Yi Ning said loudly.
The assessment suddenly enters the most exciting moment, and everyone is looking for their intended challenge partner.
"Junior sister Qingyi, then let me challenge you." Zhang Wang came to Zheng Qingyi and asked.
"You?" Zheng Qingyi frowned slightly.
"Yes, just over ten days ago, my level improved a lot, so I came here to ask for advice." Zhang Wang chuckled softly, with a hint of pride in his tone.
"Oh, come on then." Zheng Qingyi nodded without saying anything. Since others want to challenge her, she will naturally not be timid. She just looked at one foot and just stepped into the emperor level. Will he be her opponent?
.
"Yes, please."
Zheng Qingyi didn't say anything. She grabbed the air, and some mist appeared in her palm. Zheng Qingyi turned her hand and pushed, and the mist suddenly turned into a downpour. Finally, the raindrops turned into sharp swords and attacked Zhang Wang with great speed.
Zhang Wang raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and the next moment the sound and shadow disappeared out of thin air. By the time Zheng Qingyi reacted, he was already on top of Zheng Qingyi and struck Zheng Qingyi with a palm.
Zheng Qingyi raised her hands to resist, but Zhang Wang's palm grew larger and larger, and finally suppressed Zheng Qingyi like a mountain.
But Zheng Qingyi just refused to admit defeat, so even though she was sweating like rain, her feet had sunk deeply into the ground, and she still persisted.
Zhang Wang saw that his sweetheart was suppressed to death, and he felt very proud and had a sense of accomplishment. He secretly thought that after this experience, Zheng Qingyi would never dare to look down on herself again.
"I agree." Zhang Wang withdrew the spell and said apologetically.
"Huh, you won." Zheng Qingyi said depressedly, is she really that bad?
"Actually, you and I are evenly matched. It's not easy for me to win." Zhang Wang consoled him.
"If you win, you win. There's no such nonsense." Zheng Qingyi said coldly.
"Gulu." Zhang Wang couldn't help but swallowed his saliva. Because Zheng Qingyi had spent too much in the competition, she was sweating profusely and wet the skirt of her clothes. At this moment, her clothes clung to her body tightly, outlining her flawless figure.
, I looked around and couldn't move my eyes away at all.
"Humph." Zheng Qingyi felt Zhang Wang's gaze, so she waved her hand and all the moisture on her body was dried, and she suddenly felt much more at ease.
After Zheng Qingyi finished all this, she turned around and left.
"Wait..." Zhang Wang was about to say something but stopped, alas, Zheng Qingyi was still so cold and cold, so difficult to approach.
"Hmph, one day, I will get you." Zhang Wang hummed to himself.
"Junior Brother Zhang, congratulations on your mastery of the technique." Su Xingzhi said with a smile. He was really shocked when he saw Zhang Wang defeat Zheng Qingyi so easily. He didn't expect that the latecomer would catch up so quickly.
If this continues, my number one position may not be guaranteed.
"Thank you. I wonder if Brother Su is willing to accept this challenge?" Zhang Wang asked.
"Haha, this is natural." Su Xing said with a smile.
"That's offending." Zhang Wangzheng said solemnly. Su Xingzhi was very good at palm techniques. Although he also had a lot of research on palm techniques, it might not be that easy to defeat Su Xingzhi.
"please."
Suddenly Zhang Wang and Su Xingzhi's palms met, slowly beads of sweat appeared on Zhang Wang's forehead, but Su Xingzhi still looked calm.
"Ah, I can't hold on anymore, I give up." Zhang Wang voluntarily gave up.
"I agree." Su Xingzhi smiled.
"Thank you, Brother Su, for showing mercy." Zhang Wang thanked him, but he was not as convinced as he seemed on the surface, because he still had more advanced techniques that he had not yet used, otherwise he might not be Su Xingzhi's opponent.
"Haha, Junior Brother Zhang is serious." Su Xingzhi chuckled, his smile was very hard to understand.
...
"Brother Ximen, who do you want to challenge?" Shi Yang came to Ximen Yu and asked aloud.
"Haha, I don't have anything to challenge, so let's forget it." Ximen Yu said without interest. After all, Su Xingzhi is no match for him if he uses the formation, so as long as he wants to win the first place, that's it.
It's a very simple thing, but so what if he gets the first place. If his level has not reached the level of a great god, he is not qualified to enter the emperor's class. Ximenyu doesn't want to stand out when he thinks of this.
"Um, but I don't have a ranking. Isn't that bad?" Shiyang asked.
"Haha, there's nothing wrong with that. They are all fifth-level disciples anyway." Ximenyu responded.
"Okay, then I'll challenge it first."
"Yeah, brother Shi, please help yourself."
I saw Shiyang walking towards the fifth-level disciple who was ranked tenth. After a hard battle, Shiyang successfully squeezed into the top ten of the year on the fifth-level hill.
Since Ximenyu did not participate in the assessment, he could only be ranked at the bottom.
