The third stage of the trial of the candidate disciples had been successfully completed, and Zhang Zhao and the three groups had successfully completed the last task. Since Zhang Zhao and Chen Yang were both completed by leapfrogging, Chen Yang made great achievements, not only completed the seven-star task and captured the evil sword heaven, but also comprehended the rare heavenly sword in five hundred years in the process of fighting, so he was directly accepted by the head of the sect as a closed disciple.

The people in these two groups were all promoted to inner disciples by exception, and Zhang Zhao and his group were called ordinary disciples. And the remaining five people in Chen Yang's group became senior disciples and did not need to participate in the final assessment.

As for the Evil Shadow group, they need to participate in the final assessment of the candidate disciples, and only after passing it will they become an official inner disciple. If it does not pass, it will be a registered disciple and will continue to run for election in the coming year. If they are not selected three times in a row, they will be permanently disqualified from joining the Sword Gate.

On this morning, there were many elders from the Sword Sect here in Yuntai, some of them had gray beards and looked like fairy wind bones. And some are dressed in black, with a solemn posture, and they are in the heyday of middle age.

Among the elders, there were men and women. The ages of the women are also very different, some are already old ladies who have entered the sixtieth year, and some seem to be gentle women in their early thirties.

Among them, the most eye-catching one is the female elder in red who came with the head of the sect yesterday. She has a graceful figure, a face that captivates the country and the city, and an elegant posture and noble temperament. Even in a place like Jianmen, where there are dragons and phoenixes and beautiful women, it is a top-level existence.

It's just that for some reason, the people present stayed away from her intentionally or unintentionally, and looking at their expressions, they seemed to be afraid of the woman in red.

Regarding the appearance of the martial arts world, as a martial artist, everyone knows that, in general, they are all unharmed with ordinary people. But as the higher the cultivation, the appearance of the martial artist will appear younger and younger, and the higher the cultivation, the younger it will be. It is said that there is also a secret technique, and after practicing this secret technique, people can stay young forever and never grow old.

Zhang Zhao is also very clear about this, although this red-clothed elder doesn't know if she is the kind of secret technique that cultivates eternal youth, but judging from everyone's jealous expressions, her cultivation is definitely not lower than that of the head of the Xuanqing Zhenren.

The sun is blazing, and the sun is shining. The white marble floor sparkles in the sunlight, and the temperature around it has risen a lot.

"Ahem!"

At this time, the Great Elder Cang Hong, who was in charge of the punishment, took a step, his indifferent gaze swept over the eleven candidate disciples present, and after coughing dryly, he said in a solemn voice: "Today is an important day for the final assessment of my Sword Sect's annual candidate disciples, and you eleven people, each of you needs to do your best to pass the final assessment and worship under my Sword Sect." Of course, if you don't pass it, it doesn't matter, you can become a registered disciple of the Sword Gate, practice the basic mental method of the Sword Gate, and there will be a chance in the coming year. ”

Canghong's voice has a strong penetrating power, listening to people's ears and ringing in people's hearts. As he spoke, none of the people present dared to make any noise, which also determined that the occasion at this time was a very solemn and solemn occasion.

"In today's trial, there are three items: one, hitting stones, two, hitting posts, and three, potential testing. Three items, each item with a perfect score of 10 and a passing score of 7. If you fail two projects, you will be judged as a failure, do you understand?"

"Understood!"

After explaining the assessment items, everyone quickly divided the venue. The place was in front of the stone sword, and three items were placed. The first was a coffin-like stone with ancient rune patterns carved on it, and the second was a piece of cloth, which seemed to be just an ordinary cloth, but the elder explained that this cloth was a dragon cloth. The so-called dragon cloth is the skin of the python monster that successfully transformed into a dragon after the dragon tribulation, this skin has a lot of spirituality, as long as you hit it with all your strength, this dragon cloth will become transparent.

Transparency isn't about brute force making it happen, it's about your potential. The higher the potential, the more subtle the color on the dragon cloth will be, as a way to test the potential of the warrior.

And the last item, which Zhang Zhao had seen before, was a transparent-colored crystal ball, which could accurately test the current level of a martial artist, so accurate that there was no difference.

"The first item is to hit the stone. Evil Shadow, you're the leader, so it's up to you to take the lead. ”

The Shadow nodded, stepped forward, and stood five meters outside the horizontal line in front of the stone.

I saw that his eyes were indifferent, and he slowly took down a sword from behind his back.

When the cloth wrapped in the sword was torn apart, what appeared in front of everyone was a slender sword glowing with a faint blue light and shining like water waves.

The Shadow straightened up, turned to the right, and gave a sword salute to the elders. After the salute, in an instant, the evil shadow pulled out a gorgeous sword flower with a sword in one hand, and then took a step with his right foot, and at the same time, a sword stabbed out.

With the sound of a sword roaring, I saw a wave of water like a wave burst out from the tip of the sword and rushed forward.

"Boom..... Whoa......"

The water waves hit the stone monument and splashed countless water. After the water splashed to the ground, the stone tablet suddenly bloomed with a strange light, and the light shot out twenty meters high, which was particularly dazzling.

Seeing this scene, the elders nodded in satisfaction, it was obvious that the results of the evil shadow were very good, and they were very satisfied.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhao also gradually understood that this first stone hit should be a test of attack power, and the more dazzling the light of this stone tablet bloomed, the stronger his attack power was.

In the first item of the test, the evil shadow passed it easily, and several elders present, including the head of the sect, gave a full score of 10.

After passing the first item, the Evil Shadow came to the second item.

Unlike the stone striker, this time, the evil shadow didn't use too much of his strength, and casually slashed at the dragon cloth, which was simple and clear, and only contained a very small amount of aura. What can be seen is that after the sword went out, the sword qi hit the dragon cloth, and then the entire cloth began to spread around like a drop of ink on a piece of white paper.

And this ink of the dragon cloth is the hidden potential of the potential, allowing him to become transparent.

The golden cloth began to become transparent, gradually spreading to the surroundings, one by one, and finally converged into a leaf-like pattern, except for the edges and corners of the entire dragon cloth, the rest of the cloth became transparent like water, without any trace of magazines.

"Well, yes, it's a quick material. ”

This time, the expressions of several elders were also more satisfied, although they were not as good as the last time, but even Cang Hong nodded, which shows that the talent of the evil shadow is still relatively high.
