"Come in, you two are qualified to enter the sword pavilion and participate in the sword pavilion assessment."
The closed door opened, and a cold voice came out.
At the same time, a girl wearing a white dress and waist-length hair came out.
She has a slender figure, black hair as smooth as satin, an oval face, and big eyes. She is very stunning.
However, she didn't look very good.
His face was as pale as paper, his eyes were unfocused, and he lacked energy.
Looking at this scene, Mo Fan was stunned.
When he was tortured the most by the female ghost in red, he was almost in this state, and he looked very weak.
While thinking about it, Mo Fan threw an appraisal skill out of habit.
The virtual panel flashed.
Identification information appears.
[Chu Qian, a disciple of the Sword Pavilion of Yuxu Academy, with a third-level foundation cultivation level. Nine years after entering the Sword Pavilion, she was injured by the sword energy and her vitality was almost cut off. She still has half a year left to live at most. 】
Looking at this identification information, Mo Fan couldn't help but be startled, and he suddenly understood.
The fact that there are few people in Jiange is not necessarily just because the requirements for recruiting disciples are high.
It can be seen from the sword intention on the stone tablet.
Jiange is not a good place.
There are countless swords hidden in the seventh floor of the Sword Pavilion. With the sword energy everywhere, it would be difficult for ordinary people to live long in such a place.
Of course, it is not ruled out that Jiange has some special means that can weaken or eliminate the impact of sword energy on the human body.
But judging from Chu Qian’s situation.
At best, Jiange can only weaken the influence of sword energy on the human body, but cannot eliminate it.
If not.
There will never be so few people in Jiange in previous generations.
Mo Fan guessed.
Wen Buyan didn't tell all the information.
The reason why there are so few people in Jiange is.
Most likely because his evil reputation has been spread.
As a result, there will naturally be fewer disciples who dare to come to Jiange.
After all, it's easy to die.
Even in the Holy Land of Swordsmanship, not many people are willing to come.
"Come in with me." Chu Qian's voice sounded again, and then she turned and entered the pavilion.
"Go quickly, you two. You have passed the cornerstone test. If you can pass the test in the Jiange, you can stay in the Jiange and have a bright future!"
Wen Buyan looked excited. Seeing that Mo Fan and the others passed the test, he seemed even happier than himself.
Mo Fan ignored this and even wanted to beat Wen Buyan up.
Now he is a little hesitant.
He was wondering if Xu Jing would have any problems taking this path.
Maybe you can really become stronger quickly.
But if it comes at the cost of reducing lives.
It would be better to be mediocre and practice slower.
At least there is hope if you are alive.
When you die, there is nothing.
He who lives longer smiles longer.
Of course, the final decision on this matter rests with Xu Jing.
He thought for a while and briefly explained the matter.
What surprised Mo Fan was that Xu Jing remained firm after hearing his story.
"No, it's okay...I can do it."
"Have you decided yet?" Mo Fan frowned and looked at her.
"It's decided, I, I can feel it..."
"Huh? What do you feel?" Mo Fan was confused.
"Here... this place suits me very well. I can also feel that the sword energy in the sword pavilion is very, very gentle." Xu Jing explained.
Hearing this, Mo Fan looked strange.
He turned his face, concentrated his energy and looked at the sword pavilion, and immediately felt the sword energy that Xu Jing mentioned.
However--
boom!
There was a roar in his mind, and his brain was buzzing. He almost vomited blood, and it took him a while to recover.
He turned his head and looked at Xu Jing, his head covered with black lines.
Is this what you call gentle?
"Are you okay?" Seeing that Mo Fan looked a little strange, Xu Jing asked worriedly.
Mo Fan shook his head and said nothing more.
At this moment, he also understood somewhat.
People cannot be generalized.
You will be injured by the sword energy of the sword pavilion.
But Xu Jing may not.
Mo Fan estimated.
This situation is related to your swordsmanship talent.
In this case, maybe this ghost place is really suitable for Xu Jing.
After all, there are only a few people in Jiange.
But every one or two generations, there will be a person with the ceiling of combat power who can intimidate the entire existence of Blue Star with a sword.
It is precisely because of the existence of the Sword Pavilion that Yuxu Academy can always have a stable position, and the human race can always deter the demons and monsters.
"Okay, let's go in and take a look." Mo Fan nodded, turned around and walked towards the sword pavilion.
Seeing this, Xu Jing quickly followed.
Boom!
As soon as he entered the sword pavilion, Mo Fan's expression darkened. He felt the oncoming sword energy, which made him breathless.
Fortunately, after a while, the pressure became much less.
Although it still exists and makes people very uncomfortable, at least I can move around normally.
Xu Jing, on the other hand, acted like a normal person, just looking at the sword pavilion curiously, her eyes lingering on the simple sword boxes where swords were hidden.
"It seems that the sword energy here will not hurt her..."
Mo Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
"You come with me to the backyard."
Chu Qian's figure reappeared, leaving a word and continuing to move forward.
Walk through two long corridors.
Not long after, Chu Qian led Mo Fan and Xu Jing to the so-called backyard.
It's very spacious here and very empty at the same time.
There are no rockeries and no spiritual plants.
Some are just five huge stone tablets that are more than one meter wide and almost three meters long.
The stone tablet looks a bit old, with some damage on both sides and some moss growing on it.
But its surface is still smooth and spotless.
If you look carefully, you can find that the five stone tablets are densely engraved with characters.
Those characters are a bit like ancient characters. Occasionally, a flash of light will flash between the characters.
Obviously, there are formation patterns engraved on the stone tablet.
Of course, they are said to be ancient characters, but to be precise, they can only be regarded as ghost drawings.
Ancient Chinese characters are one of the compulsory courses in high school.
The martial arts in the early stage of spiritual recovery relied on documents unearthed from some ancient tombs.
There is something strange about those ancient tombs.
They were all from an era that could not be verified, and had never been discovered before the spiritual energy was revived.
These ancient tombs seem to have appeared suddenly after the spiritual energy was revived, and they are suspected to be relics left from the previous martial arts era.
From the excavated ancient documents, people discovered many secret methods of cultivation.
Some are suitable and some are not.
After all, times have changed, the sea has changed, and I don’t know how many years have passed.
The environment is always changing.
The secret method that was suitable for practice at that time may not be suitable for now.
But no matter what, these secret methods are of great reference value.
Most of the current mainstream exercises evolved from this.
Therefore, the cultural department has listed ancient characters as a compulsory course.
As a top student, Mo Fan knows a little bit about ancient characters, and he knows them all as long as they are not too complicated.
However, he was confused by the characters on the stone tablet and could not decipher their meaning at all.
So, what is engraved on it?
A new type of ancient writing that has not been published?
Is it the inheritance of Jiange?
A peerless sword classic?
The assessment content is to interpret these words and understand this sword canon?
This is so fucking outrageous... right?
Just when Mo Fan was confused.
Chu Qian's voice rang out.
"These five stone tablets are the content of Jiange's assessment.
"You release your spirit, try to blend with the stone tablet, and resonate with it.
"If you can make any of the stone tablets shine, you will have passed the sword pavilion's assessment and you can stay in the sword pavilion to practice."
After a pause, Chu Qian explained: "Of course, the more glowing stone tablets, the stronger the swordsmanship talent.
"Okay, you two can start the assessment.
"Junior sister, please come first."
After saying that, Chu Qian stood aside with her sword in hand, indicating that Xu Jing could start the test.
