Seeing that there was a good show to watch soon, the disciples of the outer courtyard who came to participate in the assessment gave up a wide open space so that Jiang Ziyao could face off against the examiner.

Jin Xuan looked at Jiang Ziyao's slightly thin body, and asked Aster with some concern: "Do you think that nerd can win?"

Aster stared at the True Qi Test Tube that had been broken into several pieces before. There was a little more complicated look in his eyes. After a long time, she said, "What do you think?"

Jin Xuan looked at Jiang Ziyao, and was even more worried: "That nerd, the hand holding the sword is trembling slightly, obviously afraid." Cowardice is a big taboo. Moreover, the strength of the examiner is not weak at all. He was just a disciple of the Outer Courtyard who wasn't even an assassin. I don't think the odds are too high for that nerd. Alas, can't you pass the assessment this year......"

"So that's what you think...... Aster moved her gaze to Jiang Ziyao's resolute face, "I believe in him, I believe that he will definitely win this competition." ”

"Huh, why?" Jin Xuan asked curiously.

"Don't you think he has a strange power in him, and people can't help but want to believe in his strange power......"

"Peculiar...... Strength?"

"Yes, a power called 'dreams'. This kind of power can make him extremely powerful......" Aster's gaze suddenly softened, "Strive unremittingly to realize your dreams, no matter what kind of predicament you are in, never flinch, firm in your faith, and straight forward...... In my opinion, such boys are the most admirable and attractive. ”

"Oh~ I understand!" Jin Xuan smiled sheepishly, "Our aster beauty is attracted to that stinky nerd~"

"Cai, Cai, no!" Aster Pretty blushed slightly, "I just think he's very ......"

"Hehe, I thought that what Aster liked must be a graceful and beautiful man like Tianjian. I didn't expect ...... Hah, that's big news. ”

"Xiaoxuan, don't talk nonsense. How could I have a heart for a man I only met today? Hmph, if you really want to talk about it, someone who came to cheer for Ziyao is the one who has a secret affection for others, right?"

"I-I'm not! I, I'...... I'm here to see his jokes! He'd better be defeated by the examiner at once. The more ugly he is, the happier I feel!"

"Hehe, I don't know who was worried about him just now?"

"I'm not worried about him! Hmph, that nerd is the worst of all. What kind of xiaolongbao, actually say that......"

......

Just as Jin Xuan and Aster were arguing, the duel between Jiang Ziyao and the examiner had already begun. The examiner stepped forward with his sword and moved in front of Jiang Ziyao at an extremely fast speed. Without thinking about it, he raised his hand with a sword and slashed at Jiang Ziyao with his head and face.

The examiner had the intention of asking Jiang Zi to retreat from the difficulty, so he infused a powerful true qi into the sword. Jiang Ziyao hurriedly swung his sword to block. As soon as the two wooden swords collided, the examiner's sword immediately shook Jiang Ziyao and the sword together.

Jiang Ziyao involuntarily took a few steps back before he barely stabilized his figure. The hand holding the sword trembled even more, as if the muscles in his wrist had been numbed by the blow just now.

"Hmph, vulnerable. The examiner disdainfully pulled his sword, "Assassins are not for everyone. With your strength, even if you become an assassin, you won't be able to survive in a cruel world. Stop talking stupid about 'dreams'. ”

Jiang Ziyao gritted his teeth and did not speak. Lean forward and prepare to take the initiative.

"It's too slow!" the examiner saw through his actions in a split second, and took the lead to close the distance. With a big hand, a sword like a broken bamboo immediately fell from the top of Jiang Ziyao's head.

Jiang Ziyao didn't dare to take the move with one hand. Grasp the hilt of the sword with both hands and raise the sword to block.

The wooden swords intersected, making a dull sound. Jiang Ziyao was knocked back a few more steps.

The examiner did not use any assassin's killing skills, but simply injected true qi into the wooden sword to attack. Because he knew that Jiang Ziyao's true qi value was only five, which was far from his level. With this alone, you can completely overwhelm your opponent.

The purpose of the examiner is to make Jiang Ziyao understand, and talent is more important than the so-called will. No matter how big your dream is, without the support of the corresponding talents, it will be a dream bubble after all. The disadvantage of his true qi value is the chasm that prevents him Jiang Ziyao from becoming an assassin.

"Brush brush brush ......" The examiner slashed out a dozen swords at an incredible speed. Every time, Jiang Ziyao could only tremble and barely block.

Every time the two wooden swords collided, Jiang Ziyao was forced to take a few steps back. In terms of situation, he completely fell into the upper hand.

Seeing Jiang Ziyao's blind block, the examiner snorted disdainfully: "Didn't you just say that you want to become a top assassin? Now you don't even have the strength to fight back? I haven't even used my killing skills yet." ”

Another wooden sword strike. Jiang Ziyao stepped back again. My back was cold, and before I knew it, I was clinging to the wall.

"Whew, whew, whew......" Jiang Ziyao gasped. It seems that the physical strength has also reached the limit. The hands holding the sword trembled.

With a mocking sneer on his face, the examiner dragged the wooden sword, walked towards Jiang Ziyao step by step, and said, "People should know what they are good at and what they are not good at. It's wise to choose the direction you're good at. Knowing that you have no talent for assassins, and clinging to unrealistic fantasies, this is the biggest reason for your failure. So, ...... next"

The examiner slowly raised the wooden sword in his hand, and while slashing it down, he suddenly shouted loudly: "Let me use this sword to cut off your childish and ridiculous dreams!"

In this wooden sword, all the true qi of the examiner is infused. The examiner didn't have the slightest intention of keeping his hand, and planned to cause flesh wounds to Jiang Ziyao, the more painful the better. Because only by opening the heart can people wake up from blindness and see the situation clearly.

"Oh no!" Jin Xuan, who was watching the battle, frowned and showed a worried expression, "Stinky nerds can't do it at all." I'm going to lose now!"

The aster next to it was noncommittal. A pair of beautiful eyes stared at Jiang Ziyao without blinking, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The examiner's wooden sword slashed through the air and let out a sword roar, slashing unstoppably at Jiang Ziyao's head. Surprisingly, when the tip of the sword touched the top of Jiang Ziyao's head, it did not give the examiner the feeling of actually hitting the other party. On the contrary, the examiner felt as if his wooden sword had hit nothing.

When the examiner noticed that something was wrong, the wooden sword had already split Jiang Ziyao in half without hindrance!

"This, this is ......" The examiner was surprised to see that the "Jiang Ziyao" in front of him actually disappeared after being split!

"Lord Examiner, I'm sorry!" Before the examiner could come back to his senses, Jiang Ziyao's voice sounded from behind him.

"Oops! Hit!" The examiner suddenly woke up and immediately turned around, "This kid can even use afterimages!"

Remnants were a common technique of the Assassins. It can only be activated the moment the main body is attacked by the opponent. The principle is to use your superior movement speed to go around the opponent's back. Due to his own speed, the opponent can still see a figure remaining in place with the naked eye. This remnant of the illusory image is the afterimage.

Afterimages have high requirements for the timing of their activation. If you don't have the right time, you will be hit by the opponent and then injured. Or they dodge the opponent's attack, but the action of going around the opponent's rear is seen through.

Therefore, it is not so easy to successfully unleash a perfect afterimage that can confuse your opponent. However, Jiang Ziyao did it.

Not only did he deceive the examiner's eyes and go around the examiner's back, but he also got a chance - a great chance to win!

Jiang Ziyao, who reversed the situation, seized the opportunity to inject all his true qi into the wooden sword, and slashed at the examiner with great speed!

With that powerful sword momentum, where is there still a little bit of malaise before?

But the examiner has a lot of combat experience after all. Although it fell into passivity, it was not chaotic in the face of danger. In his haste, he raised his wooden sword, ready to block the blow.

With only five true qi for an attack, it is absolutely impossible to break through his defenses. So he wasn't afraid of it.

In the next moment, Jiang Ziyao's wooden sword actually cut off the examiner's wooden sword in an instant. This is a blow that carries the dream, breaks the block, and hits the examiner hard!

Then, a powerful force came from Jiang Ziyao's wooden sword, and immediately knocked the examiner to the ground.

All the outer courtyard disciples who were watching were stunned for a while. No one thought that Jiang Ziyao, who had been beaten so hard that he couldn't fight back, would reverse in the end and turn defeat into victory.

After a full five seconds, Jin Xuan suddenly came back to her senses and cheered: "Okay, it's successful!"

Aster's tense pretty face was also relieved at the moment, and a moving smile bloomed. Afterwards, the disciples of the outer courtyard erupted in thunderous applause one after another, as if they had won.

"Impossible...... How could a guy with a true qi value of only five cut off my wooden sword......" The examiner who fell to the ground still couldn't accept the facts in front of him.

At this time, the purple-clothed elder came to the examiner and said, "Haven't you noticed? At the beginning, Jiang Ziyao was just showing weakness to the enemy. trembling hands, forced to retreat again and again, breathless and breathless...... This series of details is only to make you think that he is weak, and then make you paralyzed and show flaws. ”

"This ......" The examiner looked at Jiang Ziyao's resolute expression in amazement, and was speechless for a while.

The purple-clothed elder continued, "Maybe now he is inferior to you in terms of true qi strength. But his tactics made up for it. He lures you into taking the bait with a string of defeats. Just when you think you're sure you've won, he turns the tide with an afterimage and defeats you. All the previous false moves are to pave the way for the final fatal blow. The essence of the Assassin's battle lies in the final brilliant one-hit kill. Can you still say that this kid doesn't have the talents of an assassin?"

"I'm ......," the examiner hung his head in frustration, "I'm so ashamed!"

"One last word of advice, don't underestimate the power of dreams. Today, isn't your conceited 'talent' defeated by this child's immature 'dream'?"

Speaking of this, the purple-clothed elder no longer paid attention to the examiner, and instead smiled at Jiang Ziyao: "Child, from now on, you are an inner court disciple of the Xinghua Sect. ”

Jiang Ziyao's eyes lit up with excitement, and he hurriedly bowed to the purple-clothed elder again and again: "Thank you so much!"

The purple-clothed elder nodded and smiled, "From now on, I will be the teacher who will teach you assassin techniques." You can call me Stardust. Now you can go back and prepare. Tomorrow morning at 7 o'clock, report to the elders' house on time. ”

After speaking, the purple-clothed old man brushed his sleeves away.

Hearing the last words of the purple-clothed elder, Jin Xuan and Aster looked at each other, both stunned. After a while, Jin Xuan smiled, patted Jiang Ziyao hard, and exclaimed in surprise: "Stinky nerd, you are lucky! That's Elder Stardust, the legendary Elder Stardust!"

Jiang Ziyao asked puzzledly, "Elder Stardust...... Isn't it amazing?"

"It's not just a powerful ......" Zi Wan looked at Jiang Ziyao with envy, "Elder Stardust can be said to be the strongest assassin in the Xinghua Sect. Usually his whereabouts are erratic, and he rarely appears in public. He never accepted disciples. It is said that only a genius who is rare in a thousand years is qualified to receive his teachings. ”

"Well, that's right, even a talented and beautiful assassin like Wan'er can't get into his eyes. Jin Xuan looked at Jiang Ziyao from head to toe, "But no matter how I look at it, I don't think this nerd is a genius who has not been met in a thousand years." There is only a five-scale true qi value, and it is almost the same as a rare wonder in a thousand years, hehe......"

Jiang Ziyao said depressedly: "You just said that I am a scumbag with only five combat strength, why bother beating around the bush?"

Aster smiled and played the round: "Okay, Xiaoxuan, don't be poor." In this competition, Ziyao did win beautifully. All in all, congratulations on entering the inner courtyard, Zi Yao. From now on, you will be an assassin of the Xinghua Sect just like us. ”
