Hearing the provocative words, Butler Ekri's face changed, but he still patiently explained: "Our Auburn Martial Arts School has always required an assessment before you can sign up. What you said is to pay gold coins.
The ones you can join are those small martial arts schools. ~"
Afterwards, the housekeeper Ekri stopped the big guy who just spoke from talking and continued to introduce: "Our Auburn Martial Arts School is divided into four classes based on the strength of the students, namely the introductory class, the junior class, the intermediate class, and the advanced class.
The introductory class recruits beginners with no swordsman experience, and the junior, intermediate, and advanced classes recruit low-level, intermediate, and advanced swordsmen accordingly."
Next, Ekri went on and on about various matters, and Ryan had to listen patiently.
A quarter of an hour later, Ekri finished his introduction to Auburn Martial Arts School, and then asked everyone to tell them their swordsman level and the class they wanted to sign up for.
Next, everyone tells their level one by one.
Ruian did not compete with others and waited quietly for others to speak first. After a while, Ruian was surprised to find that the approximately ten applicants were basically low-level swordsmen, and only one was an intermediate swordsman.
Ruian thought for a while and could only think of one possibility, that is, intermediate and advanced swordsmen are generally organized and capable, so few people join martial arts schools to learn sword skills.
For the last one, it was Ruian's turn to speak. Ruian said with some embarrassment: "I am a level 5 swordsman and I want to sign up to join the advanced class."
Suddenly, everyone who signed up was very surprised, and they all looked at Ruian in surprise.
The butler Aikli was not too surprised. Their martial arts school had set up an advanced class, and they were ready to sign up for advanced swordsmen like Ruian.
Next, Ekri asked the other applicants to follow the servants around him for the assessment, leaving Ryan alone.
Ryan was a little strange. ~But he still waited expressionlessly.
Immediately, Aikli looked at Ryan carefully for a while, and then asked in a high-pitched voice: "What is your name? Why do you want to join our martial arts school?"
After hearing Ruian say that he was a level 5 swordsman, Aikli's attitude became much more polite, but his sharp voice still made people dislike him.
Regarding this issue, Ruian was not surprised at all. He had expected that he would encounter a lot of doubts before he came. I think so. No matter which martial arts school it is, if he suddenly encounters a level 5 swordsman who wants to join, he will naturally ask questions full of doubts.
Ichiban.
So Ruian said in a calm tone: "My name is Ruian, and I come from the Principality of Purs. Because I was promoted to level 5 swordsman some time ago, but found that I don't know how to use the sword, so I want to join a martial arts gym to learn how to use the sword.
Use the technique and learn other sword skills by the way."
Ryan decided to tell the truth. The reason he said was a bit embarrassing. But it was also a problem that other self-taught swordsmen would encounter, so it was reasonable.
Aikeli was stunned. He didn't expect that Ryan would join the martial arts gym for this reason. He couldn't help but ask: "Don't you have a teacher?"
"No. I learned the fighting spirit sword skills in the academy before. After that, I left the academy and wandered around."
With this explanation, Ekri somewhat understood Ryan's situation, but he still continued to ask a lot of questions. He wanted to ask all about Ryan's background.
In order to join the martial arts school, Ruian had no choice but to answer questions patiently.
Unexpectedly, at the end of the question, Ekri did not say whether to recruit Ryan or not, but said to Ryan: "In a situation like yours, I have no right to recruit you. It is up to the instructors of our martial arts school to decide."
At this moment, Ruian was cursing in his heart. He didn't expect that he had to answer the other party's question for so long, and the other party finally said that he had no right to recruit. But under the roof, he had to bow his head. In order to join the martial arts gym, Ruian had to endure it.
~
Fortunately, Aikeli did not leave Ruian in the courtyard at the entrance, but took Ruian into the corridor and into the martial arts hall, otherwise Ruian would be even more angry.
After passing through a corridor tens of meters long, Ruian saw a huge martial arts training ground. The martial arts training ground was very large, with a length and width of hundreds of meters. The martial arts training ground was divided into dozens of small martial arts training grounds, crisscrossing each other.
A small martial arts training ground is surrounded by a
They are separated by passages more than one meter wide. Most of the small martial arts training grounds are just separated and not surrounded by walls. These are public martial arts training grounds. There are only three small martial arts training grounds in the middle, surrounded by high walls.
, is a closed martial arts training ground.
Ruian glanced over and saw that there were many people in the open martial arts training ground. They were basically students of low-level swordsmen. Some of the students were practicing sword skills alone, some were practicing sword skills in pairs, some were sitting cross-legged on the ground practicing fighting spirit, and even
There are also some people who do nothing but sit on the rest chairs next to the martial arts training ground and chat.
Ruian made a rough estimate and found that the number of all students was about a hundred. This number was far from reaching the limit of the number of people in the martial arts training ground. It can be seen that even if the Auburn Martial Arts School disclosed the intermediate secrets, come and sign up.
There are not as many students in the martial arts gym as expected.
Surrounding the martial arts training ground is a row of buildings, with densely packed bungalows on both sides, which look a bit like accommodation for students. In front of the martial arts training ground are several buildings similar to auditoriums, which are probably the interiors of martial arts halls.
A martial arts training ground, or other office, etc.
On both sides of the hall are a row of bungalows with many rooms. They don't look like accommodation, so Ruian doesn't know what they are used for. Behind the hall, there seem to be many buildings, and even several buildings with several floors can be seen.
The attic is probably where the martial arts instructors live.
The housekeeper Aikli led Ryan through a row of small training grounds and came to a small room next to the hall. Then he asked Ryan to wait in the small room while he went to report to the instructor.
As a result, Ryan waited for a full two-quarters of an hour before Aikli came and took Ryan to a slightly smaller hall.
Ruian glanced over. In the middle of the rectangular hall, there was a large table more than ten meters long. There was a chair with a backrest at each end of the table, and a dozen chairs with a backrest on each side. Seeing the hall
The decorations in the conference room in the previous life suddenly appeared in Ruian's mind, and they were very similar to the current decorations.
At the end of the table in the hall, the main table was empty, and there were three people sitting at the first table on both sides and the second table on the left.
"These three people should be the three disciples of the master." Ruian thought to himself, carefully looking at the three people present.
The first person sitting on the left is a middle-aged man in his forties. He is the oldest of the three. His hair on his temples is slightly white, and the wrinkles on his face are beginning to show. Cultivation
People who wield heavy swords are generally stout, and this middle-aged man is no exception, but he is very thin, revealing a much thicker frame than ordinary people.
The person sitting in the first seat on the right looks a few years younger, close to forty years old, but with his fair face and slightly fat body, he looks younger. If not for this person, he is also very tall.
, with his slightly fat body and the smile that always appears on the corner of his mouth, people who don't know better think he is an ordinary shop owner. Ruian doesn't like this person because he feels that this person has a pair of thin lips on his slightly fat face.
There was a cunning look in his eyes.
Sitting in the second seat on the left was a young man who looked to be about thirty years old. He sat there with a very serious expression, as if there was no one else around. Ruian only took a glance and could feel the arrogance exuding from this man.
Yi Ruian knew right away that this was not an easy person to get along with.
Butler Ekri brought Ryan to the table in front of the three of them. Without letting Ryan sit down, he introduced to Ryan in a low voice: "These three are the three major instructors of our Auburn Martial Arts School." After a pause, he continued the introduction.
Said: "This is the chief instructor Kesiari, this is the second instructor Batu, and this is the third instructor Zdino."
During the introduction, Ryan nodded to the three major instructors, but only the senior instructor Kesiari nodded in return, and the other two showed no response.
After the introduction, Aikli retreated, leaving Ryan and the three instructors in the hall.
To Ruian's surprise, the other party did not speak first, and there was a silence. Ruian had to say: "Hello, three instructors, I am Ruian from the Principality of Purs. I hope to join the martial arts gym and learn sword skills."
After saying that, Ruian stared at the three instructors with neither arrogance nor humility, waiting for their answers.
Kesiari, who was sitting in the first seat on the left, reacted and said with a smile: "The housekeeper has just told us about your situation, but we need to confirm the authenticity now."
Ruian was a little unhappy, but judging from the current situation, he could only agree. Such a trivial matter was not worth falling out with. After all, the three people in front of him were all level 6 swordsmen. Although Ruian was confident that he was not afraid of them, he was still in a one-on-one situation.
Under such circumstances, if the three opponents join forces, Ryan will have no chance at all.
"Please speak." There was a hint of displeasure in Ryan's tone.
"Are you really a level 5 swordsman?"
"Yes."
"Please prove it."
Suddenly Ruian didn't know how to prove that he didn't know how to use the iconic sword blade of a level 5 swordsman. After thinking about it for a while, Ruian came up with an idea. He reached out and pulled out the epee from behind, and then used his fighting spirit. In an instant, the epee was ready.
A sword light more than four feet long emerged.
A level 4 swordsman can also display a sword light that is more than four feet long, but it is definitely not as easy as Ruian is doing now. Only a level 5 swordsman can display it so quickly and easily.
"Well, judging from your fighting spirit, you are indeed at the level of a level 5 swordsman. I heard that you want to join our martial arts gym to learn how to use the sword. Why don't you buy a secret book?"
"I have always been self-taught and practiced. I encountered many difficulties in the process of training. Therefore, I joined the martial arts gym not only to learn how to use the sword, but also to learn from the experience of other level 5 swordsmen." Ruian has already prepared for this problem.
