In the early morning of the next day, ten disciples who had obtained the qualifications to enter the inner sect, accompanied by lecturers from their respective Taoist schools, came to Wanjian Square at Luyan Peak.
When they arrived at the square, the inner sect elders of the three main peaks were already standing in a corner of the square waiting for them.
The ten disciples of the Third Avenue Academy were divided into three groups and stood in front of the three elders.
Su Xing stood beside Han An and Du Jia and looked around. There were all familiar faces to him in the crowd.
Song Xinghe from Shenji Taoist Academy, Baili Yangqiu and Guan Yaner from Xuanguang Taoist Academy were all disciples who fought with him yesterday, and now, they have also obtained the qualifications to enter the three main peaks.
Got here.
It can even be said that the disciples who came here today are the most outstanding representatives of Wanjian Sect's Outer Mountain in the past year.
When Lu Sheng glanced at the selected disciples from each Taoist academy and made sure that everyone was here, he coughed twice.
One by one, the excited boys and girls immediately suppressed the turbulence in their hearts, took a few deep breaths and then calmed down.
Lu Sheng looked at the excited young disciples, smiled with emotion, and then said loudly: "Disciples, today is the day when you leave the Third Avenue Courtyard and enter the inner mountain of the Wanjian Sect.
As one of the two sects in Linzhou, our Wanjian Sect has taken root and grown in the Wanling Mountains for more than a thousand years, and has provided many talents to our Dasen Dynasty and even the entire Lingwu Continent.
Some of the disciples trained by the three main peaks are fighting bloody battles with monsters on the battlefield, some are refining elixirs, and the weapon refiner guild has made contributions to the entire human race, and some have even taken over the power of the dynasty.
Disciples, you are very lucky to have the key to open the door of light. But this does not mean that your future is destined to be bright."
Lu Sheng's high-pitched words suddenly changed, his tone became serious, and his eyes as he scanned the crowd became slightly solemn, making the people watching feel tense.
"The three main peaks are not a place for you young people to live and enjoy themselves. Entering the inner mountains does not mean that you will be superior to others and that you can despise the journey of cultivation. On the contrary, as inner disciples, you have to work ten times harder than those in the outer mountains.
Sweat and work hard! Your strength not only protects the reputation of Wanjian Sect, but also protects the entire Lingwu Continent. Disciples, do you understand?"
"Understood!" Everyone affected by Lu Sheng's words was in high spirits, and their words in unison resounded through the sky.
"Very good!" Lu Sheng nodded with satisfaction, "Now, the three of us will explain to you the differences between the three main peaks."
After saying that, the old man in black robe pulled out his long sword with sharp movements and held it in front of him. The black long sword flashed with faint fluorescence, and dense black thick liquid suddenly emerged from the polished blade.
"Crack."
A drop of black liquid flowed along the blade and fell to the ground. All the disciples looked at it and saw that the hard stone bricks were dented by the erosion of the black liquid, leaving a deep pit as big as a fist.
"The three main peaks have different abilities. What I am good at at Baidu Peak, as the name suggests, is 'poison'!"
poison.
The simple words suddenly appeared in everyone's minds, and the disciples realized that the drop of black liquid that fell on the stone bricks turned out to be a drop of venom.
"Uh-huh."
Lu Sheng suddenly lifted the long sword and swung it hard into the open space aside. The black venom covering the blade turned into a thin line and sprinkled on the gray stone bricks.
The next moment, the gray stone bricks with sharp edges and high quality materials were actually broken into two pieces by the venom. The ground of Wanjian Square was actually eroded into two halves by the venom!
Seeing this terrifying power, all the disciples felt chills in their hearts.
What would happen if Lu Sheng spilled the venom on their bodies?
The disciples swallowed and felt a little scared.
"Poison is the foundation of our Hundred Poison Peak. The methods I am showing you now are just the most basic 'sword poison' of our mountain sect. Don't think that poison is a method that only despicable people can use.
After a Tao is cultivated to the extreme, it will undergo a terrifying transformation.
The same goes for the way of poison. Those who are masters of poison regard all things as tools for applying poison. The swordsmanship of Baidu Peak is to understand the way of self-poison, and it pays attention to surprise."
The shocking words reached the ears of every disciple, causing many of them to fall into deep thought. However, some disciples shook their heads secretly, having already denied Baidu Peak in their hearts.
"Although Baidu Peak's swordsmanship is not powerful visible to the naked eye, it is actually extremely weird. When I was practicing in the inner mountain, I often practiced swordsmanship with the disciples of Baidu Peak to hone my reflexes." Du Jia said to the side.
The two disciples explained.
"Sir, what was the main peak you entered that year?" Han An asked.
Du Jia smiled, raised her chin towards the woman in white dress who stepped forward to take over from Lu Sheng, and said, "Lingwu Peak."
Seeing Yu Jing, who was wearing a clean white undershirt, approaching, the scene suddenly became quiet, and only the slightly rough breathing of some male disciples could be heard.
Yu Jing, who was outstandingly beautiful, took a few steps forward and came to the front of the crowd. With her slender hands, she elegantly drew out the long sword from her waist.
It was a slender long sword that was all green and white. Su Xing estimated that the blade was not as thick as a piece of bamboo, but it seemed to fit perfectly in Yu Jing's long fingers.
A bunch of pink and white sword tassels hang from the end of the hilt of the blue-white long sword, which at first glance looks somewhat similar to commonplace decorations.
Some disciples were immediately confused. Elder Yu Jing's sword was tied with a decorative spike that was nearly a foot long. Wouldn't it be troublesome during the battle?
Du Jia seemed to see the doubts on Su Xing and Han An's faces, and explained with a smile: "You will know later."
At this time, Yu Jing suddenly moved in everyone's eyes.
I saw the woman in the white dress holding the green and white sword tightly, taking mysterious and light dance steps, and stepping out towards the open space in front of her.
The graceful woman in a white dress without makeup, with blue silk hair dyed in ink, brandished a misty sword, and her sword-dancing posture was as if she was dancing on the spot, as if she were an immortal or a spirit. Everyone who watched it was mesmerized for a moment.
The pink sword tassel tied to the green and white sword hilt actually started to fly in the sky following Yu Jing's sword dancing movements, like a wisp of dancing pink mist.
Yu Jing's sword dance movements were graceful, her steps on the ground were as light as stepping on clouds, and in the blink of an eye, she danced more than a dozen steps in a graceful and ethereal way.
"Buzz."
The next moment, the graceful fairy and the ethereal sword were in front of the female disciple Ding Xue's chest at some unknown moment. Everyone woke up from a dream and looked at the scene in front of them in amazement.
None of the disciples, including Ding Xue who was pointed at by the sword, realized when Yu Jing withdrew from a distance and came to them.
All this seems to be a dream, both real and illusory.
"Yu...Elder Yu..." Ding Xue was at a loss for a moment.
Yu Jing gave Ding Xue a gentle and friendly smile, and retracted the sword gracefully.
Seeing Yu Jing's charming smile towards her, Ding Xue blushed slightly and immediately understood that this was the other party's invitation to join Lingwu Peak.
Seeing the purple-robed girl finally nodding vigorously, Yu Jing smiled with satisfaction, turned around and walked back to Lu Sheng and Yang Yu.
"Despicable!" Yang Yu cursed in a low voice, but Yu Jing ignored him and gave him a blank look.
Lingwu Peak Yu Jing's demonstration was over, but she didn't say a word during the whole process. She was completely explaining the characteristics of her mountain gate in the form of a sword dance.
Smart, swift, ethereal, light and graceful.
This is the trait she has displayed for her ten disciples, and it is also the path that Lingwu Peak has always followed.
At this time, Su Xing seemed to realize the purpose of the pink sword spike. Perhaps just as the common people viewed it, in the hands of Elder Yu Jing, the sword spike was indeed just a decoration.
But if it were missing the way it flutters in the wind when dancing the sword, Yu Jing's swordsmanship would probably be missing something.
This is the essence of Lingwu Peak, using swords to show the beauty of dance.
He recalled that the swordsmanship he had seen Du Jia display earlier seemed to have some of the charm of Yu Jing, but Du Jia's swordsmanship was mostly unrestrained.
"Let's go to Lingwu Peak!"
After seeing the display of Yu Jing, the elder of Lingwu Peak, almost half of the ten people had secretly made up their minds to join the misty and elegant Lingwu Peak.
Only by practicing swordsmanship there can one be called a true swordsman!
