(Updated for the sake of ranking, a new month and a new day, I am asking for your monthly votes, rush, rush!)
In the afternoon, the sun hangs high and spreads blazing heat.
The four members of Chen Zong gathered in the Zongheng Sword Hall again, and then, under the leadership of the sect leader Lin Zhonghan, walked through the Zongheng Sword Hall and walked inside.
"The sword assessment is divided into two parts. The first person to pass within the specified time will be able to become the sect's swordsman, and the rest will be eliminated." Lin Zhonghan said, his plain tone containing undoubted power.
Even if only a trace of the power of a powerful person in the extraordinary realm is revealed, it is still very strong. An arrogant person like Long Changzhi does not dare to refute, otherwise he will be expelled directly and lose the qualification to compete for the sect's sword.
Keep walking forward, passing through door after door, as if you are going into endless places.
A few minutes later, Lin Zhonghan stopped, pointed to the four closed doors ahead and said, "Everyone chooses a door to enter. You will know the assessment method after entering."
"Go ahead and use all your abilities."
Chen Zong and the others took a deep breath, and then Long Changzhi flashed forward, rushing forward with a domineering attitude like a stream of light, and took the lead in choosing a door to open and enter.
Chen Zong opened the door and suddenly felt a burst of fresh air.
After stepping into the door, the door automatically closed, and the originally dark interior suddenly lit up like daylight, illuminating the surroundings to every detail.
Chen Zong glanced over and stared blankly ahead.
It was a wall, a strange-looking wall. This kind of wall gave Chen Zong a feeling of déjà vu.
Mechanism wall!
During the assessment at the Qunlong Pavilion in the capital of the Yunlong Dynasty that day, the first level was to crack the mechanism wall.
What is tested in cracking the mechanism wall is a relatively comprehensive ability, which requires memory, deduction ability, comprehension ability, insight, etc., which happen to be the necessary abilities for warriors.
Compared with the mechanism wall in the Qunlong Pavilion assessment, the mechanism wall in front of us is several times more complex and more precise.
It is certain that an ordinary warrior at the ninth level of the Jinjin Realm will be confused when seeing such a mechanism wall, and may even feel dizzy after looking at it for a few more times.
Speaking of which, the trap wall is a very popular test, but the composition of different trap walls is often different. Cracking one trap wall does not mean that you can crack other trap walls.
There is a timer hanging on the wall on the left. The pointer rotates slowly at a slight speed. When it completes one revolution, it means that the time has expired.
Chen Zong first closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and eliminated all distracting thoughts in his mind. Then he opened his eyes, and his clear eyes reflected the entire machine wall.
His pupils shrank like needles, and he scanned them little by little. First, he memorized the overall outline of the mechanism wall, which was imprinted in his mind. From big to small, from outside to inside, every detail was firmly remembered by Chen Zong.
.
Since receiving the mysterious sword tip, Chen Zong's own potential has been continuously developed. With the improvement of his cultivation and the breakthrough of his realm, his potential has been further developed. It is not difficult to have a photographic memory.
Even so, it took Chen Zong nearly a quarter of an hour to fully memorize this complicated mechanism wall, and the pointer on the timer had traveled nearly a quarter of a circle.
After fully memorizing it, Chen Zong searched for the operating rules. Only by grasping the rules can he proceed to the next step of deduction, and then he can hope to crack it.
"Which school's mechanism wall is this?" Long Changzhi frowned, looked at it carefully, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It doesn't matter which school it is, the basic principles of the mechanism wall are the same, and I, long ago
I have mastered the basics of the mechanism wall."
This is where your advantage lies.
Whether you have learned the basics of office walls or not, it makes a big difference.
The same two people have similar abilities in all aspects, but one has learned the basics of the trap wall and the other has not. When it comes to cracking the trap wall, the former will have an easier time.
After all, if you understand some basic knowledge, you can better understand and better understand the deduction.
Yan Hua and Xiao Jinpeng have more or less come into contact with the basic knowledge of mechanism walls. It can be said that among the four, Chen Zong is the only one who has not learned the basic knowledge of mechanism walls.
"Zhonghan, do you think these four people have any hope of becoming the swordsmen of the sect?" The old man in a green robe with white hair and beard but as rosy as a baby asked, his voice like the roar of a river.
"Senior, I can't tell." Lin Zhonghan, the leader of the clan, replied respectfully.
There is only one person in the entire Zongheng Sword Sect who can treat the sect leader Lin Zhonghan with such respect and call him the elder, and that is the elder of the sect.
This sect elder is also the previous sect leader. After he resigned, he became the elder. In terms of status, he is still above the sect leader. Of course, in terms of actual power, the sect leader comes first.
"Ever since Yu Xie and Zuo Shanmei, no one from our sect has passed the sect's sword test for several years. I hope one will appear this time." The elder sighed softly.
Yuxie refers to Lin Yuxie, who passed the examination and became the swordsman of the sect. Now, he is one of the five geniuses in Tianjiang Mansion. Zuo Shanmei became the swordsman of the sect a few years later than Lin Yuxie.
Now he is ranked among the second-tier talent camp of Tianjiang Prefecture and is expected to reach the first-tier camp.
The assessment of the Sect Sword Master is very difficult, and under normal circumstances, the outer sect elders only have one recommendation opportunity in their lifetime. If they make great contributions to the sect or use their own sect contribution in exchange, they can get a second or even a second recommendation.
The third recommendation opportunity.
To put it simply, the first opportunity is free, and subsequent opportunities require sacrifice.
As for the inner sect elders, they are not subject to this restriction. Of course, the inner sect elders will not make random recommendations because of this.
The Sect Swordsman Examination is held almost every year, but for several years since Zuo Shanmei, no one has passed the examination to become a new Sect Swordsman.
I don't know if the four people who took the test this time will be wiped out like they did in previous years, or if some of them will be able to pass the test and become the new generation of swordsmen after Lin Yuxie and Zuo Shanmei.
"Yan Hua and Xiao Jinpeng are both disciples of the sect. They know the basics. The probability that they will pass the examination is not high." Lin Zhonghan analyzed: "Chen Zong comes from a small dynasty. In terms of origin and inheritance, he is not as good as Yan Hua and Xiao Jinpeng.
, but his combat power is still higher than that of the two, which shows that this boy is indeed extraordinary. If he could become a disciple of the sect a few years earlier and receive better training, he would be more likely to pass the examination. As for the Dragon Chief,
I have some origins in my ambition, and I have a lot of family background since I was a child."
"If any of these four people can pass the assessment, Long Changzhi's chances will be greater." Lin Zhonghan finally said.
Although Lin Zhonghan is not very willing to let a person related to the royal family become the swordsman of the sect, on the whole, it does not violate the rules passed down by the Zongheng Sword Sect. Furthermore, if Long Changzhi can pass the examination, if he is not allowed to
If the other party becomes the swordsman of the sect, it will be unreasonable and it will attract the royal family to intervene, which is not a good thing.
As for the arrogant character, that's nothing. In the world of geniuses, there are all kinds of characters, so there's nothing strange about them.
After all, mind and character are two different things.
What Lin Zhonghan hopes most is that Yan Hua or Xiao Jinpeng can pass the examination. After all, these two people have been worshiping the Zongheng Sword Sect for a long time.
The elder did not speak again, but the mountain breeze remained the same.
"Rise to the middle heaven position... go to the lower heaven position... and then pass the thick position..." Long Changzhi used his own abilities and the basic knowledge of the mechanism wall to deduce, and muttered: "No, I deduced it wrong.
, start over.”
Chen Zong didn't understand the meaning of the middle heaven position and the lower heaven position, because he had never studied it, but he had his own way of deducing it.
Everything in the world has its own laws. As long as you observe carefully and are keen enough, you can find out the laws bit by bit and then master them.
Anyone who has rich experience and is well-informed will find it easier to deduce, because the laws of everything do not exist independently, but are interdependent, and are inextricably linked to each other and can confirm each other.
Gradually, the pointer on the timer slowly turned, and it had already gone through more than half a circle. Chen Zong also found out the rules of the mechanism wall and continued to deduce it.
Yan Hua and Xiao Jinpeng stared directly at the mechanism wall, and tried their best to use the basic knowledge of the mechanism wall they had learned to perform deductions. However, as they pushed and pushed, they found that they seemed to have entered a dead end, and gradually deviated.
.
Fortunately, they woke up in time, quickly got out of the corner, took a deep breath, adjusted a little, and started from the beginning.
There was a detour, and the re-extraction became much smoother.
In terms of the basic knowledge of the mechanism wall, neither Yan Hua nor Xiao Jinpeng can compare with Long Changzhi. It can be said that Long Changzhi has truly mastered the basic knowledge of the mechanism wall, while Yan Hua and Xiao Jinpeng have only mastered the basic knowledge of the mechanism wall.
Having just started, Chen Zong is a complete layman.
"The throne of heaven... is right here, break it!" With a low shout, Long Changzhi's eyes shot brightly, he took a step forward, and slapped a palm with his hand, restraining his strength on his palm, and hit a spot on the wall of the mechanism.
There was a clicking sound, and immediately, the operation of the entire mechanism wall stopped. After a moment of silence, the clicking sound continued, like fried beans, and the mechanism wall separated from it, allowing one person to pass through.
At the moment when Long Changzhi successfully cracked the mechanism wall, Chen Zong also deduced the operating rules and found a way to crack it.
Pointing with the referring sword, the mechanism wall also stopped running with the clicking sound, and then there were dense clicking sounds continuously. You can clearly see that every mechanism component on the mechanism wall is moving, and the connection between them is
They were disconnected one after another, and a gap was created from which a person could pass.
After glancing at the timer on the wall on the left, he saw that there was less than half a circle left. Time was running out. Chen Zong stepped forward and walked into the gap in the wall of the mechanism.
This is the first level of assessment, and going forward is the second level of assessment.
As Long Changzhi and Chen Zong successively broke through the agency wall, Yan Hua and Xiao Jinpeng were still working hard.
Seeing that the hands on the timer were gradually completing a circle, Yan Hua and Xiao Jinpeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and they all took action. The clicking sound sounded continuously, and the mechanism wall was successfully cracked.
The two glanced at the timer from the corner of their eyes, and were immediately startled. They were almost timed out, just a short time away, and timeout meant elimination.
