Looking at the situation, this time Grandmaster Shaoguang accepted the apprentices, and it was also handed over to the four princes and the lord of Luolin County.

"Everyone, be quiet, the master has an order, this time the disciples will be recruited, and the subordinates will be presided over, and below, first invite all the qualified young martial artists to line up by the lake. The Four Princes shouted.

The qualifications for recruiting apprentices for Grandmaster Shaoguang are very simple, and those under the age of twenty are martial artists in the Flesh Refining Realm, which is the only requirement.

One by one, young talents stepped forward and consciously lined up, and those who did not meet the qualifications did not step forward.

No one dares to deceive the grandmaster, that is looking for death.

In the crowd, Zhenyi stood at the back.

His tent was too far back, so he noticed the movement and came out late, and by the time he arrived at the lake, a long queue had already been discharged!

"Okay, here's the first test, everyone, use your own way to cross the lake and reach the island in the middle of the lake, remember, the body is not allowed to get wet, and the time limit is one hour. The fourth prince said.

"Across the lake to the other side?" the people in line looked at the remote island in the middle of the lake, stunned.

"How is this possible?"

"If you want to cross such a distant lake, how deep your true qi is, I'm afraid you have to be a Bone Realm martial artist to do it!"

"You have to have excellent light skills so that you don't get wet. ”

The young talents shook their heads.

But Zhen Yi keenly found that some of these young people had smiles hidden between their eyebrows, and they seemed to have a way to do it a long time ago.

"It seems that there is some insider!" Qin Xuan said secretly in his heart.

Obviously, some people have known how to cross the lake for a long time, and have even prepared for it, but it is still early, so they do not act rashly, so as not to be learned by others.

Time flies, and soon, half an hour is gone!

At that moment, a young man took a huge plank from the servant's hand, spread it on the water, and paddled it towards the island in the middle of the lake.

"Fourth prince, he's foul, how can he use a raft?" Seeing this, the other young men hurriedly questioned.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this prince only said that he crossed the lake, but he didn't say that he had to rely on martial arts, as long as his body didn't get wet, it wasn't a violation!" the fourth prince said indifferently.

"In that case, are there ships here?" a young man hurriedly shouted.

"Yes, isn't there a boat behind the four princes, do you dare to rob it?" another young man pointed behind the four princes.

The young man who asked the boat looked embarrassed, and he didn't say anything!

Some of the youths quickly walked to the nearby grassland, where there was a lot of green grass, and tied them up to make straw mats, which could also carry people to the small island in the middle of the lake.

But there was only half an hour left, and it was obviously too late to tie the straw mats, so many people paid attention to other things.

There was a young man who stepped on two wooden barrels and walked towards the lake, and the wooden barrels carried buoyancy, but they could not get water.

There are also some people wearing leather jackets, wading through the water, their leather jackets are dense and impermeable, and when they reach the other side, as long as they take off their leather jackets, there is naturally no water on their bodies.

Zhenyi looked at these people and had an idea in his heart.

He returned to his tent, picked up the bamboo pole that supported it, and walked towards the lake.

Shout!

The bamboo pole is inserted into the water, and most of it is exposed, obviously, the lake is not deep.

Zhen Yi nodded, holding two bamboo poles in both hands and walking on the water, his body bent up, and took the two bamboo poles as two legs, walking in the water.

"It's such a powerful wrist, the quagmire in the lake is of different depths, and this person didn't fall. Lord Luolin looked at Zhen Yi, who was holding a bamboo pole deep into the lake, and showed a look of surprise.

Among these young talents, Zhenyi was the first to let her speak.

"Sister Luolin, don't you have a crush on him?" the fourth prince smiled.

The Iron Sword King is a royal nobleman, and he is a brother to the Emperor of the Varnation Kingdom, so the Lord of Luolin is the cousin of the four princes.

"You bastard, you dare to talk nonsense!" Lord Luolin slapped the fourth prince on the back, hitting him with pain in his spine.

"Sister, I was wrong, I can't do it if I'm wrong!" the fourth prince hurriedly begged for mercy.

Half an hour had passed, and only forty-seven people had crossed the lake, and many of the young men had gathered their servants to weave straw mats, but they still did not have time.

After all, it also takes time to cross the lake.

On the embankment of the small island in the middle of the lake, the forty-seven people who passed the pass were wide-eyed, there was no one on the island to receive them, and the four princes and the lord of Luolin were standing far away on the other bank, and they had no intention of coming by boat.

"What do you do next, do you want to wait here?" said a young man.

"Wait, the Fourth Prince and the Lord of Luolin can't come, we can't walk around, in case we disturb Grandmaster Shaoguang, it won't be good!"

Each of the forty-seven people chose a place, meditated cross-legged, and waited quietly.

And so it was three days

。

The Fourth Prince and the Lord of Luolin had already returned to the island in the middle of the lake, but strangely, the two of them ignored these young men and let them sit on the embankment and meditate.

Three days later, many people were already hungry.

If you are thirsty, you can still drink the water in the lake, what to do if you are hungry, you can only endure it.

"No, I can't stand it anymore, if I continue like this, I'll have to starve to death on the island. "A young man struggles to the depths of an island in the middle of a lake in search of food.

When the other young people saw this, they all watched from afar.

Zhen Yi looked at the departing young man, his eyes condensed slightly, "It is rumored that Grandmaster Shaoguang was a beggar when he was a child and suffered a lot, he should be testing our endurance." ”

Sure enough, the young man quickly disappeared into the depths of the island and lost his trace.

Cuckoo!

There was another sound in Zhen Yi's stomach, he had been hungry for three days!

"I have to endure it, the Grandmaster's acceptance of apprentices is my only chance, and I must not give it up. Zhenyi closed her eyes and lay down on the embankment to minimize energy consumption.

His mind kept flashing the scene of the palace of Zhiguo being broken and bleeding all over the ground, as well as the queen mother's advice to him.

The hatred of the country and the family accumulated in the bottom of his heart, so that he never dared to forget.

After another four days, there were only fifteen people left on the embankment, all of them lying on the grass, some of them were so hungry that they could not stand it, and they had already begun to gnaw on the bark!

Zhen Yi's eyes were foggy, he hadn't eaten a drop of rice for seven days, his head was dizzy, and he instinctively wanted to bite the blade of grass under him, but the only reason left stopped him.

"Bear with it, bear with it again, there are only fifteen people left!" Zhen Yi muttered.

At that moment, a figure approached.

"Let's drink some porridge, I'm hungry too!"

This is a maid holding a pot of rice porridge and coming to everyone.

The fifteen dying people opened their eyes in unison, and one by one they tried their best to crawl up to the maid, take a spoon and drink porridge in a big gulp.

"Fifteen of you, you can be regarded as having passed the second round of tests, the grandmaster said, martial artists, must have extraordinary patience and perseverance in order to achieve something. The maid said.

Sure enough, the second round of tests was a comparison of endurance. Zhen Yi gulped down the rice porridge and breathed a sigh of relief.

Grandmaster Shaoguang's meaning, he had already guessed in his heart, he believed, others also guessed, but only fifteen people could hold on to the end.
