The first of the twelve cities in the Longwu Empire.
"Quick, quick! The natal sword level test is about to begin."
At this time, a sound of urging came from the Chen Clan, one of the three major families in Spring Wind City, and then a large group of Chen Clan disciples ran towards the martial arts field.
One of them, who was dressed in white and had a slightly green face that looked a little pale, but still looked extremely delicate, did the opposite.
When everyone who was rushing towards the martial arts arena saw him, they all avoided it. Facing a large group of people on the stone steps that were not very spacious, the young man did not feel crowded.
After taking a look at the people who were avoiding him like the god of plague, the young man just smiled as he was used to it and walked forward quickly.
After taking a few steps, three people walked towards them, but the three people did not avoid the young man like the others. The young man stopped and looked at the three people.
The three of them also stopped and glanced at the young man with disdain. The leader said: "Chen Tian, the natal sword level test is about to begin. I wonder if you, the son of the patriarch, will awaken a spiritual level sword."
Where’s the natal sword?”
Before Chen Tian could speak, another one of the three people immediately complimented him and said: "Brother Chen Qi, you think too highly of him. He is a waste who has not even introduced the sword energy into his body. He is qualified to awaken the spiritual level."
His natal sword?”
"Hahaha." Several people laughed and left, Quan Dang treating Chen Tian as a tool for fun.
Chen Tian clenched his fists, glanced at the backs of several people, and then continued walking towards the main hall ahead.
After arriving at the main hall, Chen Tian saluted a middle-aged man who was above the throne and said, "Father."
Before the middle-aged man could speak, a woman's voice came from the side, "Tian'er is here."
Then a woman in her early forties came over. Chen Tian turned around to look, and then shouted: "Mother."
The woman quickly came to Chen Tian, tidied up his clothes, and then said: "Today is the day of the natal sword level test. Although you have been unable to draw Gang Qi into your body, I believe that my son, Ye Xinrou, is not a waste."
"Haha, well said!" The middle-aged man in a high position came down, patted Chen Tian on the shoulder and said, "Your mother and I believe in you, and you must also believe in yourself."
Chen Tian nodded vigorously, "I understand, and I have always believed that I am not a waste."
"Okay, it's getting late, we should go, otherwise the elder will gossip again." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he walked out of the hall first, followed closely by Chen Tian.
When the three of them arrived at the martial arts arena, the area was already surrounded by water. When everyone saw the middle-aged man, they all made way for them and respectfully said: "Chief of the clan."
The middle-aged man nodded and took Chen Tian and the two of them to the martial arts arena. Then he turned back and smiled kindly at Chen Tian and said, "Tian'er, let's go!"
Chen Tian nodded, and then walked towards a huge stone in the center of the martial arts arena, but the two middle-aged men stepped onto the high platform.
Upon seeing this, the ten elders of the Chen clan on the high platform stood up and bowed. One of them, an old man with a gloomy face and a fierce light in his eyes, sneered and said: "Clan leader, who do you think has a higher level of natal sword, Chen Tian or Qi'er?"
There are some!”
"Great Elder, you will come to a conclusion later, why bother guessing here." The middle-aged man said expressionlessly.
"Humph!" The great elder snorted coldly and said nothing more.
...
When Chen Tian came to the front of the boulder, there were already more than ten people around the boulder, all of whom were already sixteen years old and had reached the age to test the level of the awakened natal sword.
After this test, people with high-level natal swords will be specially trained by the clan. If the lowest natal sword is awakened, then they can only become ordinary people doing odd jobs in the clan.
When several people saw Chen Tian approaching, they all turned away, as if taking another look would dirty their eyes. Chen Qi looked at Chen Tian and sneered, and ignored him.
At this time, the great elder stood up and said: "The time has come. Those who need to be tested will put their hands on the grading stone in turn. It will show the grade of your natal sword. Let's start now!"
As soon as the Great Elder finished speaking, a man came forward and put his hand on it. The boulder gave off a faint light, and then the word "Dharma" slowly appeared.
"This... Chen Hui has reached the fifth level of Gang Qi. How can he be the lowest level natal sword?"
"Yes!" Seeing this result, the people around him immediately started talking.
The man named Chen Hui also left the martial arts arena in despair after seeing this result. After that, several people came forward to test it one after another. Only one of the dozen people awakened the spiritual level natal sword.
Finally, only Chen Tian and Chen Qi were left beside the boulder. Chen Qi glanced at Chen Tian and said, "Why don't you come first."
Just as Chen Tiang was about to take a step forward, Chen Qi came to the level-testing stone first, turned around and sneered: "I really thought you were the young clan leader."
After saying that, he put his hand on the grading stone.
When people around the martial arts arena saw this scene, they all suppressed their laughter and said, "This is a naked humiliation!"
At this moment, the grading stone suddenly emitted a burst of intense light, and then slowly appeared the character '人'.
People around the martial arts arena immediately exclaimed, "It's actually human level."
"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Even the great elder on the high platform stood up and said three good words in a row.
Chen Qi put down his palm, and then said to Chen Tian: "It's your turn, don't let me down, young patriarch."
Chen Tian didn't speak. He took two steps forward and slowly placed his palm on the grading stone. He could clearly hear his heartbeat at this time. The middle-aged man on the high platform also sat up straight.
, staring at the grading stone.
One breath, two breaths...it wasn't until five breaths later that the boulder emitted a burst of dazzling light, and then slowly appeared the words 'No natal sword detected'.
Seeing the extremely dazzling eight big characters, Chen Tian was stunned for a moment. Even the middle-aged man on the high platform suddenly stood up and said repeatedly: "How is it possible?"
The Great Elder said with a gloomy face: "Chen Tian actually does not have his natal sword. This is something that has never happened in the history of the Sword Continent for millions of years."
The second elder stood up and said angrily: "This is simply a shame for our Chen clan, no, it is a shame for the entire Yujian Continent."
"If this matter spreads out, how can our Chen family gain a foothold in front of the other two families?" The fifth elder and the seventh elder immediately echoed.
Everyone under the high platform also started talking about it.
"Chen Tian actually does not have a natal sword. This is the first time he has seen someone without a natal sword, and he also appeared in our Chen clan."
"Yes, the Fifth Elder and the others are right. If this matter gets spread, we will never be able to raise our heads in front of the other two families in the future."
