Jiang Ziyao stood in the long line and looked at the table in front of the examiner. I saw a slender glass tube resembling a mercury thermometer on the table. There are a total of 100 scales on it.

Each disciple who participated in the assessment had to pour his true qi into the front end of the glass tube. The red liquid in the glass tube is then pushed by the True Qi and rises.

The full scale is one hundred. Just use True Qi to push the red liquid in the glass tube to reach the 60th scale, and you will pass the assessment.

"This year's test is the strength of true qi......" Jiang Ziyao has basically understood.

True Qi was not only the basic energy for a samurai's cultivation, but also a source of energy necessary for the Assassins to perform various skills. If you have a large amount of True Qi, you will be able to perform more and more powerful assassin killing skills.

It can be said that true qi is the foundation of every assassin. This year's assessment is simple, but it is not easy to pass as always.

"Hmm His hands tightly pinched the tip of the True Qi Test Tube, desperately pouring True Qi into it.

The examinee's expression looked like he was taking a tuba. The facial muscles are extremely distorted. It's a pity that the strength of his true qi is not enough. The red liquid in the tube crawled hard for a long time, and could only struggle up and down the fifty scale.

"Didn't pass. Next, Jiang Ziyao!" The examiner saw that the red liquid could not continue to climb upward, so he announced the verdict to the candidate. Then according to the application list, Jiang Ziyao's name was called.

"Yes!" After all the red liquid flowed back, Jiang Ziyao pinched the tip of the test tube, secretly mobilized the power of the Jiuyang Bead, and quickly poured it into it along with his true qi.

This year, you must pass the inner hospital assessment and fight!

The test tube emitted a humming sound, and instantly glowed with a blinding red light. The red liquid swished, soared from zero scale, and rushed to kill on a hundred scale!

After the red light flashed, the True Qi Test Tube was suddenly broken into several pieces and scattered on the table. The red liquid inside also flowed out.

"Oh?" The purple-clothed elder sitting behind the examiner suddenly opened his eyes and felt a little surprised.

He knew that the red liquid inside the True Qi test tube was easy to push at first. But after sixty scales, it is extremely difficult to advance each scale. In the Xinghua Sect, which is full of talents, there are very few disciples who can go to the seventy scale, let alone the full scale.

There is not a single assassin who can break through the hundred scales in the entire Xinghua Sect.

Therefore, the disciple of the outer court in front of him is definitely not simple!

"Okay!" Jin Xuan, who was watching from the sidelines, waved his small fist and exclaimed excitedly: "Even the test tube is broken, but the real qi is very strong." It should be no problem to pass the assessment this time. ”

Jiang Ziyao was secretly frightened and blamed himself. You shouldn't have used the power of the Nine Yang Beads just now. The Luna Witch's eyeliner can be found throughout the continent. Maybe there are assassins she planted in the Xinghua Sect. There are so many people here, and if it is exposed, it will cause a lot of trouble.

The gentleman hides his weapons and waits for the time to move. Now I don't have enough strength to compete with it, so I should try to keep a low profile.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ziyao touched the back of his head and asked cautiously, "Examiner, am I considered to have passed?"

The examiner shook his head and said, "It may be that the candidate in front of you is pushing too hard, causing the test tube to exceed the tolerance limit." The result just now...... To be honest, I didn't see it clearly. Well, I'll get you a new one and test it again. ”

"Whew...... saved. Jiang Ziyao muttered in a low voice. This time, you must not use the power of Jiuyang again.

After replacing a new True Qi Test Tube, Jiang Ziyao only injected his True Qi into the test tube. This time, instead of climbing as quickly as before, the red liquid climbed like a snail, with great difficulty to the height of the five scales.

"Drink!" Jiang Ziyao mobilized all the true qi in his body and pushed the red liquid desperately. It's a pity that the damn liquid is lazily stuck on the fifth scale, not seeking progress, eating and waiting for death.

Since the Moon God's True Qi was only cleared today, the True Qi in Jiang Ziyao's body was still very weak and was in the recovery period. If you don't use the power of the Nine Yang Beads, it's too difficult to qualify. If you take the test a few days later, I believe the result will be very different.

In the end, he blushed and took out all the strength to feed, but he couldn't break through the five scale.

The examiner looked at his sweaty and strenuous appearance, and couldn't help but smile: "Okay, that's it." It's a pity that you didn't pass. ”

"Examiner, let me try again!" Jiang Ziyao hurriedly shouted, "Give me another chance." I'll be able to do it!"

The examiner tilted his head, looked at Jiang Ziyao, and said with a smile: "Just rely on your true strength of those five scales? The weakest disciple in the history of the Xinghua Sect also has fifteen scales. You don't have the talent to be an assassin, so An An should be a disciple of the outer court and do odd jobs. ”

"I, I ......" Jiang Ziyao was ridiculed by the examiner and his face was flushed. The clenched fists also trembled slightly with shame. Nails dug deep into the palms of his hands.

"How can this be...... Jin Xuan sighed in disappointment, "It's clear that the results are great just now! Examiner, give him another chance." ”

The examiner shook his head and said, "The previous time was that there was an abnormality in the True Qi Test Tube, which cannot be used as a criterion. If he is given one more chance, it will not be fair to other candidates. ”

"Examiner, please! No matter what, I want to try again!" Jiang Ziyao suddenly bowed deeply to the examiner and begged.

If you can't become a disciple of the Inner Court, you won't be able to learn those superb assassin skills. Then that's all he can do in this life. He will never allow himself to do nothing and die depressed.

If you can't become a top-level assassin, sooner or later you will be cornered by the Moon Spirit Witch. Not to mention revenge. What's more, he once promised his mother that he would revive the Yi God Clan.

I took the exam for four years in a row, but I didn't pass. This time it doesn't work, and it's the fifth year. How many five years can there be in life?

In the past few years, what is the purpose of being strong and forbearing, and sharpening one's mind? This time, there is no way to back down from anything. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we must not give up!

"Do you really want to be an assassin?" Just as the examiner was about to sternly reject Jiang Ziyao, the purple-clothed elder sitting in the back suddenly came here and asked.

"You are ......" Jiang Zi raised his head abruptly and looked at the rather majestic elder.

"It doesn't matter who I am. You just have to answer my words. Do you really want to be an assassin?" the purple-clothed elder asked seriously as he looked into Jiang Ziyao's eyes.

"Yes!" Jiang Ziyao nodded vigorously.

The purple-clothed elder asked again, "Why do you want to become an assassin?"

Why do you want to become an assassin? Jiang Ziyao recalled the situation when he escaped from the village five years ago.

In order to seize the Nine Yang Pearl, the Moon Spirit Witch took the top assassins of the Moon God Palace and attacked their Yishen Village. The people fled in all directions. The whole family fell apart. His mother was ready to die in order for him to escape.

Before parting, his mother tearfully handed over Jiuyang Zhu to Jiang Ziyao and told him to live strong no matter what. The mother's eyes full of strong family affection, Jiang Ziyao will never forget in this life......

It was from that moment that Jiang Ziyao clearly realized that he was just a useless nerd. Without strength, even your own relatives can't be protected.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ziyao stared at the purple-clothed elder with resolute gaze and said, "It is my lifelong dream to become a top assassin. Only with unparalleled strength can I protect the people I want to protect. Only with the strength of the unparalleled in the world can I let justice be served. Only with the cultivation of the best in ancient and modern times can I prevent the weak from being eaten by the strong, so that the good will eventually be rewarded!"

The most important thing is that with enough strength, he has the capital to seek justice from the Moon Spirit Divine Witch on behalf of the entire Yi God Clan!

"Is the power of guardianship ......" The purple-clothed elder stared at Jiang Ziyao's firm eyes, suddenly nodded approvingly, and said to the examiner, "You can officially register him as a disciple of the inner court." ”

The examiner hurriedly shouted, "Elder, are you joking?"

The purple-clothed elder said, "Do you think I'm joking?"

The examiner sighed: "But, but he only has five scales of true qi." His poor qualifications made it difficult for him to be a good Assassin. I hope you think about it again......"

The purple-clothed elder asked, "What do you think a good assassin should look like?"

The examiner respectfully replied, "This ...... In my opinion, a good Assassin must have superior qualifications, good understanding, and superb Assassin skills......"

The purple-clothed elder shook his head: "I don't think so. To become an Assassin, the most important thing is not those, but the mind. The lack of innate qualifications can be made up for by acquired diligence. If the heart and ambition are not good, even if the qualifications are good, it will be difficult to achieve great achievements. ”

Speaking of this, the purple-clothed elder suddenly changed his words and asked the examiner: "Since you look down on him, what is your dream?"

The examiner was stunned at first, then touched his head embarrassedly, and said abruptly: "When I was a child, I wanted to be a big official who governed the Quartet. But when I grew up, I realized that I was not qualified enough in that area. So ......"

The purple-clothed elder snorted, "That's why you can only be an examiner in the Xinghua Sect in this life. A child who has a dream and is determined to work hard for it will always be worthy of respect. I saw a strong faith in him. In my opinion, this child will become a great man in the future. ”

The examiner muttered in embarrassment: "Although you say so, but relying on dreams and wills alone, in the end, is still too illusory. His qualifications are really ...... It's so clumsy. ”

"A person who has abandoned his dreams, who has the right to despise a clumsy child who is trying to chase his dreams?" The purple-clothed elder glanced at Jiang Ziyao with a gaze that seemed to be able to see everything, "What's more, this child's 'clumsiness', in my opinion, is precisely his intelligence. Register him with my door. ”

The examiner was surprised: "You, are you serious? You, who have never accepted disciples, would actually value a guy with only five scales of true qi so much......

The purple-clothed elder raised his eyebrows: "I accept disciples, do I still need you to take care of them?"

The examiner was very embarrassed and said, "Even if you say so, it will be difficult for me, as an examiner, to make him pass." After all, his assessment results are too outrageous. If he is allowed to pass the assessment like this, I am afraid that the other disciples will be unconvinced. ”

"What a rigid guy. The purple-clothed elder frowned, "It's better than this." Xinghuazong has a rule. Elders can bypass the assessment and directly promote disciples. Now I'm going to use that right. The qualifications are...... Examiner, you have a competition with Jiang Ziyao. If he can beat you, then he will pass the inner court examination this time, how about it?"

The examiner was silent for a while, then nodded: "Since you have said this part, you can only obey below." ”

As he spoke, the examiner took two wooden swords and threw one of them to Jiang Ziyao: "This is your last chance for this assessment." Defeat me, and you will be able to enter the inner courtyard of the Xinghua Sect and become an assassin. If you lose the competition, you will be asked to go back. ”

"I'm willing to take on the challenge. Jiang Ziyao clenched the wooden sword in his hand, his eyes were full of determination, "Examiner, please advise!"

"Hmph, there is a word first, for a guy like you who has only five true qi value, I will not release water. The examiner raised his sword and pointed at Jiang Ziyao, "Next, let you see what the level of a real assassin is!"
