Chapter 13 Selection and Assessment (III)
"Clang!" A loud bell came from the sky above the tilted Lingtai Hall. Ning Shusheng looked up at the sky and said calmly: "It's time to have lunch."
"Junior brother, the morning test has not yet been released, but there is no doubt that your strength is the strongest. By the afternoon, the test results of the Middle Third-grade Zone will also come out. At that time, the quota of 50 disciples who went to Langya Mountain will come out. I will tell you something, if you don't mind, Shusheng and I will go to your room and chat while we are having a meal." Liu Changhong said.
Lin Junxuan was slightly surprised, but he could see that Liu Changhong had no malice and nodded: "Don't mind."
"Okay, wait for me first," Liu Changhong said, and shook his sleeves slightly and walked towards another young disciple in the crowd. Lin Junxuan saw that he had the young disciple whispering a few words, and then the young disciple nodded, turned around and walked away.
"Okay, I'll give you instructions. Our lunch will be delivered to your room later," Liu Changhong said with a smile.
Lin Junxuan didn't say anything, and the three of them walked towards their room. Back in the wing room, Xiaoxue Fox shouted happily, jumped into Lin Junxuan's arms, and the three of them sat down at the tea table. After a while, the kitchen in the sect brought the three of them lunch.
"I'm so tired," Liu Changhong said when the kitchen disciple went out.
"It's nothing, please use it slowly, Senior Brother," several disciples who delivered meal bowed and walked out. Judging from their expressions, they obviously respected Senior Brother.
"There is still a contest this afternoon, which is to make the top five masters in the competitive zones of the lower third-grade period, and then produce the top five masters of the lower third-grade period. As long as you can enter the top five..."
Before Liu Changhong could finish his words, he was interrupted by the excited screams from afar: "Brother, brother..." As he cried, a sound of running came towards Lin Junxuan's wing.
Under the eyes of Liu Changhong and Ning Shusheng, Lin Junxuan stood up and said calmly: "It's my junior brother." The two understood that in the sect, everyone would have one or two brothers who got along well, just like Liu Changhong and Ning Shusheng. Open the door, Ying Donglai ran in with a wooden box serving rice.
"Brother, today--" Ying Donglai was stunned when he saw Liu Changhong and Ning Shusheng in the room: "What are they?"
"This is Liu Changhong, the senior brother of the sect, and this is Senior Brother Ning Shusheng," Lin Junxuan introduced after turning around: "This is Ying Donglai, and we are entering Fangcun Mountain together."
"So that's it," Liu Changhong nodded. Those who went up the mountain on the same road could join the sect again. Their relationships were always deeper than those of other brothers.
"Hello, two senior brothers," Ying Donglai called out.
"Haha, it's just right, the four of you are just gathering together, come and sit here," Ning Shusheng said, pointing to another vacant position.
"Yeah," Ying Donglai wiped his sweat and sat down on the remaining empty seat.
"Looking at your look of excitement when you entered the door, are you doing well in the exam?" Lin Junxuan asked when Ying Donglai sat down.
Ying Donglai started to see two more in the room, and was a little restrained. When Lin Junxuan asked about this, he immediately became excited again and said with a dance: "Brother, you don't know. If I just did well in the exam, I wouldn't have to be so happy."
Ying Donglai stretched out a hand and said happily: "Brother, you don't know. Today I was assigned to another arena and actually met Dongfang Yu."
"Ah," Lin Junxuan's heart was slightly shaken. Ying Donglai and Dongfang Yu were opponents, and the grudges between the two had been around for a long time.
"Defeated him! He beat him hard, haha!" Ying Donglai laughed happily. After all, he was still a young man, and when he was happy, he couldn't help but dance.
Lin Junxuan was slightly surprised. Dongfang Yu's magic power was several years higher than Ying Donglai. In the past, Ying Donglai often suffered losses, and this reason was also due to this.
"Dongfang Yu? Is Fang Zheng's disciple?" Liu Changhong and Ning Shusheng looked at each other and asked.
"Yes. I have been pressed by him since I went up the mountain. I have been practicing hard. This time, I finally defeated him in a dignified manner during the assessment. I have been proud for the first time in the sixth year of entering the sect!" Ying Donglai said with great spirit. In the Dafangcun Sect, Ying Donglai and Dongfang Yu's wing room were only one wall of paper. Every day, I looked up and didn't look down. As soon as I went out, I could see the other person's face. When I went to bed at night, I could still hear the sarcasm of slogging and scolding the other side of the wall. Although Dongfang Yu dared not act according to Donglai, there was a group of people gathered around him and showed Ying Donglai's face a lot every day. After holding his breath for several years, he finally stood up and was proud this time. Of course, Ying Donglai couldn't help but get excited.
"Tell me what's going on?" Lin Junxuan asked. Ying Donglai's expression was stagnant, hesitating, and it took him a long time to say it. Ying Donglai's five elements belong to earth, and the earth-based Taoist magic has strong defense. In the past three years, Ying Donglai has reduced his sleep time and practiced hard. The gap between Ying Donglai and Donglai's magic power has become smaller and smaller. When the two faced each other, Dongfang Yu attacked with all his strength, and Ying Donglai defended. Although Dongfang Yu's attack was sharp, the damage caused was limited. Ying Donglai waited for Dongfang Yu to consume almost the same magic power, and suddenly found an opportunity and pounced on him. First, his hands entangled Dongfang Yu like a python, and then he fired his bow left and right, using the trick of fighting children in the mountains. Dongfang Yu was born in a family with fine skin and tender flesh. He had never experienced such a rogue fighting style. He felt even more panicked and couldn't stand it.
Ying Donglai had been holding his anger for several years, and this time he was filled with hatred and tried his best to punch each punch. When the master in the sect was in charge of the assessment, Dongfang Yu had already been praised to the point of being blue and swollen, like a pig's head.
"Haha..." Liu Changhong and Ning Shusheng laughed after hearing this. The atmosphere in the wing room suddenly became relaxed. At the feet, the little snow fox also stood up. He looked at Ying Donglai from the table and shouted happily, as if he was happy for him, which made Liu Changhong and Ning Shusheng look sideways.
"By the way, when I first came in, you seemed to be talking about something?" Ying Donglai asked with a mouthful of rice.
"I'm telling Jun Xuan some things in the sect, let's talk while eating," Liu Changhong stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
"Just mentioned, the power of the top five in the lower third rank challenged the power of any disciple in the 50 strongest ranks in the third rank district. Junior brother, if you want to go to Langya Mountain, you have to defeat one of them," Liu Changhong said.
"How is this possible?" Ying Donglai said in surprise: "My master said long before the assessment. We, the group of low-class disciples, should not be kicked into the list of the 50 worst-savvy disciples, so as not to be kicked into the list of disciples of the outer sect. As for the gathering of Langya Mountain Dao Alliance, we almost have to wait until we enter the middle third rank before we have hope of entering."
"You are right. The difference in realm between the lower third and middle third grades determines that the strength of both sides is different. According to the previous rules, those who go to Langya Mountain to attend the gathering are basically disciples of the middle third grade. But there are exceptions in everything."
"Ah?" Ying Donglai raised his head and looked at Liu Changhong. He had never heard from his master.
Liu Changhong paused and looked at Lin Junxuan. Ying Donglai also recruited the inner sect. When he could not defeat Dongfang Yu, he would run to Lin Junxuan's room to take refuge. It was not stupid. Seeing this, he blurted out: "Are you talking about the eldest brother's master?!"
On the side, Ning Shusheng smiled indifferently: "Indeed, decades ago, Master Songyu once challenged the fourth-level disciples of the inner sect at the third level and won completely. It is precisely because Master Songyu that the disciples of the lower third-level disciples in the sect also participated in the assessment. - Whether you can participate or not, at least you have to give this power, this is what the sect thinks."
When the three of them laughed, Lin Junxuan lowered his head and said silently. With the third-grade rank against the fourth-grade, ordinary people basically have no chance, but it is different for swordsman. The Sword Master can deal with powerful people in the Dragon and Tiger stage. According to the principle, Lin Junxuan can use the third-grade rank against the fourth-grade rank. However, no one can say what the last level is. If a fifth-grade rank is a fifth-grade rank, Lin Junxuan will not be able to use the fourth-grade rank. However, if Lin Junxuan does not use the fourth-grade rank, there will be no chance. However, the weapon like the fourth-grade rank of Zhuxian has never been seen and will not be returned in vain. If one sword is taken, it will be seriously injured at the least, and it will be deceased at the worst. It is not suitable for the inner sect to compete. Therefore, Lin Junxuan dare not guarantee that he will definitely be shortlisted for Langya Mountain.
"I am the 'master brother' in the sect. I entered the sect early and knew the situation of the inner sect well. In the assessment of the third-grade area, most of the top 40 people came from the Master Yujinzi, and were my brothers. Other uncles had some outstanding disciples, and they were among them. Fang Zheng, Fang Yuan, and Fang Xiao had very few subordinates. Although Master Yuetian was respected as the number one master in the sect, his mind was not about teaching the lessons at all. Therefore, there were not many outstanding disciples under their sect, and most of them were concentrated in the lower 3rd grade. - I guess, if you challenge, you will encounter them basically from these three masters."
Liu Changhong suddenly made a move, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the desk in the corner of the wing room floated out of thin air and fell gently on the tea table. Liu Changhong grabbed the pen and ink, dipped it in the inkstone, and wrote: "There are ears in the partition wall!" Then he stretched out his index finger and pointed to the top of his head. The three of them understood.
The brush ran away on the rice paper. In the blink of an eye, another line of words was added to the rice paper: "The three parties expanded their power and endangered the interests of the sect!"
As soon as the three of them showed their eyes, Liu Changhong put down the rice paper again. In the blink of an eye, another line of words appeared on the rice paper: "The master is dissatisfied, and the inner sect has taken action!"
The three lines of characters are neatly crafted and there are not many techniques in it, but there is a sense of grandeur between the lines, and square. Liu Changhong sets up the rice paper. Under the gaze of the three, two words were written on the rice paper: "Not the mouth!"
"Wow!" With five fingers grabbed, the rice paper was kneaded into a ball, and a flame surged out, immediately swallowing the whole rice paper.
"Come on, let's have a meal. Otherwise the food will be cold," Liu Changhong said loudly.
Chapter completed!
