While everyone was chatting, Elder Lu and three other elders took Ye Qingchen and his party to a place called the "Testing Ground".
In the center of the testing ground, there was a round platform that seemed to be thirty miles across.
There are many tables and chairs around.
"This is the exclusive place to test whether you can become official disciples."
Elder Lu turned around and said solemnly to Ye Qingchen and the others:
"This year's test is different from the past. We will send three official disciples of the Wuyang League to compete with you."
Want to fight against official disciples?!
Except for Ye Qingchen and Ximen Xuanyi, everyone else suddenly changed their colors.
That's an official disciple of the Five Yang Alliance!
It is said that all cultivation levels start at the early stage of Yuxian Realm!
Let them fight against these three official disciples. Isn't this deliberately making things difficult for them?
"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to defeat them."
Elder Lu saw everyone's worried expressions and explained aloud:
"They will fight you based on the principle of 'retaining their strength but not their hands'."
"What you have to do is to hold on for one stick of incense in their hands."
"Once you pass, you can become an official disciple of my Five Yang Alliance."
Hearing this, many people breathed a sigh of relief.
If it only lasts for one stick of incense, that would be fine.
They didn’t believe it and couldn’t even hold on to a stick of incense!
"Just wait here for a while, those three guys will be here soon."
With that said, Elder Lu and the other two elders left the testing ground, and the juniors still chose their seats here to sit down.
Just as Ye Qingchen sat down, he suddenly received a message from Ximen Xuanyi.
"Chen Qingye, it's still too late for you to regret it!"
"I informed my brother about the content of today's test last night, and the three senior brothers who came today are all my brother's friends!"
"If you are more sensible and take the initiative to come to my side and bow to me, I will pretend that what happened last night never happened, and I can also ensure that you pass today's test!"
Ye Qingchen turned around and saw Ximen Xuanyi's sinister eyes casting straight this way.
"This annoying guy..."
Ye Qingchen sighed impatiently and still ignored him.
After being ignored three times in a row, even Ximen Xuanyi, who considered himself extremely well-educated, couldn't help but feel angry, and his face that was originally full of smiles became a little distorted.
"Brother Ximen, what are you..."
The people next to me looked confused and a little frightened.
"It's okay... I just suddenly thought of something unpleasant."
Ximen Xuanyi took a deep breath to calm down.
But when he looked at Ye Qingchen again, it was as if he was looking at a dead person!
He has decided that when the three senior brothers arrive, he will send a message to them to deal with Ye Qingchen... ruthlessly!
It won't kill you, but... you can break your arm or something.
And he has not forgotten that when Ye Qingchen becomes a handyman disciple, he will make trouble for him every day so that he will never live in peace!
"That Ximen Xuanyi looks so stinky."
Qu Wangchen, who was beside Ye Qingchen, suddenly said this in a low voice.
"Oh?" Ye Qingchen raised his eyebrows and said with a slight smile, "Why do you say that?"
"Brother Chen, look, he seems to be very approachable, but in fact he has a lukewarm attitude toward everyone."
Qu Wangchen shook his head and said: "And I always feel that he is too arrogant and has a sense of arrogance."
"This little guy is pretty good at reading people."
Ye Qingchen couldn't help but feel happy.
After thinking for a while, he said: "What about me? I should look more inaccessible than him, right?"
This is also true.
At first, when those geniuses came to him to chat and build closer relationships, Ye Qingchen's response was very cold.
This is also the second main reason why many geniuses would turn to Ximen Xuanyi without hesitation.
"That's different."
Qu Wangchen shook his head seriously and said: "Although you seem cold and indifferent, as long as we interact with you as an equal, you will naturally not show a superior attitude like Ximen Xuanyi."
"When those people talked to you before, although they lowered their posture, they still showed a bit of pride in their words, right?"
Although he was only eighteen years old, he saw this aspect so thoroughly that Ye Qingchen couldn't help but admire him in his heart.
"indeed so."
Ye Qingchen smiled and nodded.
After a while, Elder Lu and two other elders came back.
In front of them, an old man walked with his hands behind his back.
Behind them were two men and one woman.
"This is Elder Du He, who is responsible for determining the results of this test. You can just call him Elder Du."
After Elder Lu introduced Duhe to everyone, he also introduced the two men and one woman to everyone.
The two male disciples are named Lou Yuze and Qiu Jing respectively.
The female disciple’s name is Ding Tinglian.
Among them, Lou Yuze's cultivation level is at the fifth level of Yuxian Realm.
Qiu Jing and Ding Tinglian are both at the third level of Yuxian Realm.
Such a lineup made everyone couldn't help but marvel.
He is worthy of being a formal disciple.
They are all at the level of Yuxian Realm!
Together, they only have three Yuxian Realm Level 3 and one Yuxian Realm Level 2.
There is no one at the first level of Yuxianjing.
There is no need to look at the remaining tenth level of Ascending Heaven Realm.
Fortunately, it only takes one stick of incense.
And they will retain their energy, so passing the test shouldn't be too difficult.
Except for Ye Qingchen, almost everyone had similar thoughts.
But when they saw that the first three geniuses all failed, they realized how difficult this test was!
Those three senior brothers and sisters have indeed retained their strength.
But the people on their side can't hold a stick of incense in their hands at all!
The reason is also very simple.
The martial arts skills they master are not as good as those of the official disciples of the Wuyang League.
Regarding the movement of Qi, the control of timing is also far inferior.
Even if Lou Yuze and the others have their own strength, it is still not something they can deal with!
"These senior brothers and sisters are so ruthless in their attacks. Although it can be seen that they have some reserve, I still feel that it is still a bit too much."
"There is no way. We are new students and they are formal disciples. There is a big gap between them."
"I feel like I should fail this test..."
Many people were talking about it, with worries on their faces.
For them, it would be a good thing if they could directly become formal disciples.
After all, they have all heard how hard it is for the handyman disciples.
Then six geniuses continued to take the stage, but in the end only two managed to survive the time of the incense stick.
This once again allowed them to see the difficulty and cruelty of this test.
"Next, Ximen Xuanyi, Yu Kan, He Feng, you three come on stage."
Elder Duhe, who was holding the list, called out the next three names in a calm tone.
At the end, he added: "Ximen Xuanyi, you go and fight against Lou Yuze."
"yes."
Ximen Xuanyi clasped his fists in response, and immediately walked onto the round platform with the other two people.
When Ximen Xuanyi walked across from Lou Yuze, Ye Qingchen could see it at a glance. He and Lou Yuze exchanged glances.
And Lou Yuze nodded imperceptibly.
"Heh, it seems he should have passed easily."
Ye Qingchen sneered secretly.
as expected.
Just as he thought.
The battle between Ximen Xuanyi and Lou Yuze unsurprisingly lasted longer than a stick of incense.
Not only that, Ximen Xuanyi was able to "force" Lou Yuze to continuously use defensive martial arts, which was the most exciting of the several competitions.
"Well, Ximen Xuanyi, you have successfully passed this test and can become an official disciple of my Wuyang League."
Du He nodded slightly and said, "Come to me."
After Ximen Xuanyi bent down to thank Lou Yuze, he responded and walked behind Du He.
His eyes suddenly met Ye Qingchen's.
This time, Ye Qingchen saw the sinister look in his eyes.
Obviously, when he takes this test, he may not pass it so easily.
But Ye Qingchen is naturally not afraid of this.
If anyone dares to deliberately block him, he will just blow that person away.
"Qu Wangchen, Qiu Tao, and Mo Feiyan, you three, please go up to the round platform."
Duhe continued to call names.
"It's my turn."
Qu Wangchen stood up, eager to try.
Thinking of the sinister look he had just received, Ye Qingchen thought for a moment and then sent a message to Qu Wangchen:
"You have to be careful, they are very likely to be cruel to you."
"Don't worry, we are all official disciples of the Five Yang Alliance, how could they be so cruel to me, a new student?"
Qu Wangchen replied nonchalantly: "I'm going up."
His figure soon appeared on the round platform.
"Qu Wangchen, you go and fight Qiu Jing."
After arranging the opponents for the other two people, Du He gave a special reminder: "Qiu Jing, the freshman in front of you is the youngest among these freshmen. Don't be too harsh, do you understand?"
Just as Qiu Jing was about to answer, he suddenly heard Ximen Xuanyi's voice transmission.
After a moment, he smiled and nodded.
Seeing the sudden change in the other person's eyes, Qu Wangchen began to have an ominous premonition in his heart.
But the test has already begun, and at this time, he can take it even if he bites the bullet.
His cultivation level is at the seventh level of the Heavenly Realm, which is the lowest among these new students.
Logically speaking, Qiu Jing should not use too strong martial arts.
But when the battle between the two of them began, Qiu Jing immediately displayed a powerful martial arts, beating Qu Wangchen until he vomited blood and flew away!
Ye Qingchen: "!"
His expression changed and he stood up from his seat.
After Qu Wangchen landed, before he could calm down his energy and blood, he saw Qiu Jing's figure suddenly appeared in front of him, grabbed his arm, and then gave it a hard break!
"ah--!!!"
Qu Wangchen suddenly let out a scream, and his arm was violently broken!
His face instantly turned pale and he fainted!
"Qu Wangchen!"
Ye Qingchen's figure suddenly appeared on the round platform and hugged him into his arms.
But Qu Wangchen had completely passed out, and it was impossible to wake him up now.
"He has no grievances against you, why do you have to deal with such a heavy blow!?"
Ye Qingchen suddenly raised his head, and a pair of sinister eyes locked on Qiu Jing instantly, making his heart tremble for a moment.
After suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, Qiu Jing sneered and said:
"The cultivation level is too weak. Isn't it natural to be beaten?"
Ye Qingchen turned his head and glanced at Ximen Xuanyi behind Du He.
At this time, Ximen Xuanyi looked at him with eyes full of pride and provocation.
"In that case..."
Ye Qingchen turned around, gently put Qu Wangchen back on his seat, and then returned to the stage, his dark eyes locked on Qiu Jing.
"Then I'll let you taste what it feels like to be beaten!"
