"Such a big mace, it probably weighs a hundred pounds!"
"This guy is so strong!"
The sturdy young man had disheveled hair and full muscles. He was dressed like a savage and had an extraordinary momentum. Under countless pairs of eyes, he strode toward the high platform without saying a word, widened his eyes, and immediately roared, holding the largest bronze giant in his right hand.
The veins of the tripod popped out, and he lifted it up instantly with a sigh of relief, effortlessly.
The strong young man raised the huge bronze cauldron with one hand, and then put it down carefully, for fear of killing the ants on the grass, without trembling at all during the whole process.
It was obvious that this sturdy young man had reached an astonishing level of control over his physical strength.
"Okay!" Someone in the crowd roared, which immediately caused a round of applause.
The sturdy young man smiled honestly, walked to the front of the high platform, and said solemnly to Mo Qingfeng who was standing on the high platform: "My name is Ulei, and I come from Niujia Village, Kun County!"
"So it's here. Yes, it's rare for a good talent to appear. Boy, work hard and the sect won't treat you badly!" Mo Qingfeng nodded and said with a smile.
"I understand, sir, please rest assured. If I eat the food of the sect, I will work hard to do my job well!" Ulei said very matter-of-factly.
Mo Qingfeng smiled lightly and said: "I didn't ask you to come to the sect to do rough work. I won't tell you this for now. Just take the Jade Waist Card and wait in the back!"
"Okay!" Ulei took the jade waist badge, picked up the ferocious and thick mace not far away, turned and walked towards the back of the high platform.
At this moment, Lu Chen's limelight was snatched away by this sturdy young man, and no one would notice anything special about him.
When Liu Yue and Yuexiu saw that Lu Chen had also passed the assessment, they immediately waved to him happily: "Lu Chen, here, here, come here quickly!"
"So it's you!" Lu Chen walked over with a smile.
"Brother Lu Chen, we will be classmates from now on, please take care of me!" Yuexiu smiled softly, like a jasmine blooming in the sun, looking particularly upright and delicate in her fresh clothes.
Lu Chen joked: "I can't take care of you, but I can take care of each other!"
"Brother Lu is so humble. With your talent, you will definitely have a bright future in the sect!" Liu Yue said.
Lu Chen said: "Don't say that. There are crouching tigers and hidden dragons within the sect. My strength is nothing. From now on, we will all be in the same sect, and we should take care of each other!"
"You are very self-aware!" A cold voice suddenly came from behind.
Lu Chen turned around and looked with surprise in his eyes: "It's you!"
Yes, the person who spoke harshly just now was Ji Yun, whom he met on the road that day. He came up behind Lu Chen without saying a word. Hearing their conversation, he couldn't help but sneer at him.
"Hey, why are you like this? Brother Lu's strength is obvious to all. He will be very successful in the sect from now on!" Liu Yue stepped forward and scolded Ji Yun.
Ji Yun folded his arms and said expressionlessly: "Huh, it's crazy. Since its establishment, the Liuyun Sword Sect has a history of nearly a thousand years and a long history. There are more than 20 innate experts and 8,000 disciples.
, the Iron Dragon Army has a hundred thousand, and there are so many masters among them, so who is he?"
This person, of course, refers to Lu Chen, and his words are not polite.
This was completely opposite to the tone of Liu Yue and others, and the joyful atmosphere suddenly dropped a lot.
Liu Yue was unconvinced and said: "So what? People only have dreams, and there is always a chance to get ahead. People like you can only be jealous of others!"
"Dreams, huh, not everyone is worthy of having dreams, and they don't weigh how much they weigh. You people always think so!" Ji Yun responded with a sneer.
Liu Yue was furious when she heard this: "What do you mean? Try saying it again!"
"Okay, Xiaoyue, don't make trouble!" Yuexiu quickly grabbed Liu Yue who was about to take action, fearing that if she got angry and attacked her fellow disciples, they would not be able to bear the punishment from the Law Enforcement Hall.
Lu Chen interrupted: "Brother Ji, that's not what I said. Everyone has a dream. If you don't even have a dream, what's the difference between it and The Walking Dead! I think that when you come to Liuyun Sword Sect, you won't just
You want to be a nobody!"
"Huh!" Ji Yun snorted coldly and ignored it!
Time is like quicksand at the fingertips, fleeting!
As dusk fell, the heroes who came to participate in the assessment came one after another. Most of them left with their heads downcast and disappointed. Only a few stayed. After countless screening tests, the recruitment ceremony finally ended before the sun went down.
The recruitment ceremony is held once a year. This time, a total of forty-seven people met the recruitment requirements, and twelve of them were qualified as elite disciples.
Of course, recruiting so many qualified disciples in one day is a gain for Liuyun Sword Sect.
Today's recruitment ceremony is over, but the preparatory members who have become 'Elite Disciples' still need to go through a round of assessment.
The assessment project is for the twelve new preparatory disciples to challenge the elite disciples with official status within the sect.
"All the disciples who can lift the gigantic bronze cauldron weighing ten thousand kilograms, come here!" Mo Qingfeng stood on the high platform, turned around and looked at Liu Yue, Lu Chen and others behind him.
When Lu Chen and others heard this, their spirits immediately trembled, and they all came to the front of the high platform obediently.
Then, ten heroic elite disciples wearing blue robes and silver crowns slowly walked out from both sides and came to the front of the high platform. They stood side by side opposite Lu Chen and others. They all looked fierce, as if they had killed their father.
He stared at Lu Chen and others like enemies.
Lu Chen was very puzzled. He had no grudge against them, so why did they look like this? But the answer was soon revealed.
Mo Qingfeng stood on the high platform and said loudly: "Listen, Liuyun Sword Sect is one of the eight major sects and has countless elite disciples. You are the sword for the sect to dominate and the cornerstone for guarding the sect. But the sect
We need elites internally, not just rubbish. Therefore, after recent rounds of internal screening and competition, the ten weakest elite disciples have been eliminated!"
"These ten elite disciples will compete with the twelve new reserve members!"
"There is no limit to the opportunity to compete, but the time limit is one stick of incense! Once an elite disciple is defeated, he will lose his status as an elite disciple and become an ordinary disciple of the sect."
"Whoever has confidence can challenge anyone, the premise is that you have enough strength!"
"The sect has only five hundred elite disciples. It will never increase or decrease!"
"After becoming elite disciples, you will have the opportunity to compete for the title of Centurion of the Iron Dragon Army, or be sent to other counties and cities to perform tasks! The more you contribute to the sect, the more you will gain."
"Let me tell you clearly, if you want to get ahead, you have to fight for it and grab it by yourself. Opportunities are only reserved for those who are prepared!"
"The sect gives you the opportunity to achieve great success, but such opportunities do not come every day. Whether you can seize it or not is up to you."
After hearing Mo Qingfeng's words, the ten elite disciples who had been eliminated from within suddenly showed a look of shame on their faces, looking very uncomfortable.
Once you are deprived of your status as an elite disciple, it means that you will lose the high status and preferential treatment you enjoy within the sect in the future, and become a servant with the lowest status, or an outside disciple.
Who would be willing to give up everything that belongs to them?
If he is defeated by these new elite disciples and still has the dignity to gain a foothold in the sect, if word spreads in the future, he will definitely become the laughing stock of his fellow sects. How can he not look ugly?
This is also the ultimate reason why they hate Lu Chen and others so much.
On the other hand, Lu Chen and the others all had excited expressions on their faces, gearing up and eager to give it a try!
"The Liuyun Sword Sect's methods are really clever, allowing elite disciples to compete with each other. The more intense the competition, the more internally powerful masters will be cultivated. Naturally, the more opportunities there will be for innate masters to be born!" Lu Chen heard that Mo Qingfeng
When he said that, his heart suddenly shook and his blood surged.
Mo Qingfeng ordered someone to take out a copper stove and insert a pillar of yellow incense that had just been lit.
As soon as the gong sounded, the competition officially began.
Lu Chen did not move, but the others couldn't help it. They took steps and circled around the ten elite disciples in the field, looking for their favorite opponent.
The first one to find his opponent was Ji Yun.
His opponent was a burly man holding a very domineering broad sword!
Ji Yun took a step forward, cupped his hands at the man and said, "Ji Yun, senior brother, please give me some advice!"
"Hmph, even if you want to defeat me, you're dreaming!" The strong man's eyes widened, and he slashed at Ji Yun with his broad sword like lightning!
Ji Yun's eyes were as bright as lightning, and he slid out a long thin round sword from his sleeve. He quickly drew the sword a little, and the needle-like blade quickly pierced the broad sword, causing the opponent's sword moves to be affected and deflected to the side!
The strong man's moves were wide open and closed, but he couldn't make a single blow. He quickly turned his wrist, and the broad sword changed from chopping to sweeping, whipping up a gust of wind.
Ji Yun's face changed slightly, his figure flickered strangely, and then he came behind the opponent and thrust out his sword like lightning.
Unexpectedly, the strong man seemed to have eyes on his back. He moved a step sideways to avoid Ji Yun's stabbing sword, and the mighty broad sword swept across.
Ji Yun tiptoed, flipped in the air, and nimbly avoided the opponent's sweep. The thin round sword was tilted at an angle and stabbed the opponent's back of the head cunningly.
The strong man didn't even look back, he held the broad sword across his back, the two weapons collided fiercely, sparks flew out with a clang, and he accurately blocked Ji Yun's sneak attack.
Lu Chen, who was not far away, saw this scene and couldn't help but marvel in his heart: "Liuyun Sword Sect is indeed a Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Any elite disciple has such strength. It is unimaginable that this is just the weakest elite disciple!
"
"Boy, you dare to challenge me with this little strength, it's just a dream!" The strong man raised his sword to knock away the opponent's weapon, turned around and sneered.
Ji Yun's face did not change and he said coldly: "You are happy too early. Let me show you my true strength!"
"Drizzle Sword Technique!"
As Ji Yun shouted, the long western sword in his hand suddenly shook wildly, stabbing at the opponent with blurred phantoms.
The sword shadows all over the sky were as dense as rain. Each sword was faster than the other, covering all the vital points of the opponent. The strength of the strong man in blue robe should not be underestimated. He waved the broad sword in his hand like a violent storm, hitting Ji Yun again and again. Every blow,
The momentum is strong and sinking.
"Ding", "ding", "ding"... a series of clashing sounds of gold and iron sounded, and the two weapons created a dazzling spark in the gradually dimming dusk.
