22. Chapter 22
After a three-month long journey, Yechen Star finally arrived at the destination of this trip, which is also the location of the Yantian Sect, the Sulan Mountain Range. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The power of the Yantian Sect is far inferior to the Yanyang Sect, the first sect of the Yanyang Empire, but because of its unique status of the Refining Weapon Sect, even the Yanyang Sect has close contacts with it, so that it can occupy a spiritual energy treasure like the Sulan Mountain Range as the place of the sect.
After a short stop in Sulan City on the periphery of the Sulan Mountains, the Night Star went directly up the mountain. However, on the way up the mountain, I encountered a small trouble.
It's not that the disciples guarding the mountain gate are so arrogant, because Yechen Star hasn't been able to see the disciples guarding the mountain at all...... On the way up the mountain, it was all people! After a little inquiry, he realized that he had come by coincidence, and today turned out to be the day when Yantian Sect opened the mountain gate every three years to accept disciples. Just in time for him to catch up.
"Excuse me, I have something to do on the mountain...... "Yechen Xing is a person who has the token token of the Dugu Lieyang Token of the Elder of the Yantian Sect, so naturally he doesn't need to queue up to go up the mountain after passing the assessment, so he wants to go through the crowd and go directly up the mountain.
But as soon as he took a few steps, he was surrounded by countless swords and weapons......
"Something? Everyone's here! Aren't you here to take the Yantian Sect entrance test? Where did the kid come from, he doesn't understand the rules so much, even if the prince and princess of the Yanyang Empire come, you have to queue up, do you understand? Everyone lined up honestly, and Yechenxing's abrupt move immediately caused some people to be dissatisfied.
Entering the Yantian Sect means that you can become a refiner, even if it is a refiner who can only refine the Yellow Rank Mysterious Weapon at the lowest level, it is a sought-after item from large and small sects and families. Therefore, the triennial entrance assessment of Yantian Sect will attract thousands of young people and girls with the dream of refining weapons to participate every time.
Nightstar originally wanted to say that he had a token and was not all the way with them, but before he could say anything, he was sprayed back by a group of people. Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, he could only blame himself for being too coincidental. Since this is the case, let's give it a try to the disciple test of this Yantian Sect. Giving up reasoning with these people, Nightstar automatically came to the bottom of the line.
The time for the assessment was getting closer and closer, and after a while, there was a young man in a brocade robe behind Yechenxing.
"Uncle Liao, how many times have I said it, I can come alone for this assessment. You can wait for my news in Sulan City, what are you all doing here? "Accompanying the boy were several people who followed the appearance of slaves. Obviously, the boy's identity is extraordinary, but he seems to be very impatient with these people.
"Young master, there is still more than an hour before the assessment begins. If we let the young master stand here and wait, whether we are tired or tired, it will be our dereliction of duty. As he spoke, several of the slaves had already taken up their positions. The boy not only has a cushioned Taishi chair to sit on, but also has excellent tea and fruit pastries to serve.
"I'm here to apprentice, how can I mix in the sect after you make such a big battle! This little brother, you are also here to register for the assessment, why don't you sit with me? Originally, Yechenxing was watching the excitement from the side, but I didn't expect this young man to be hospitable, and took the initiative to invite him to have tea together.
"Okay." I have been in a hurry to come here, and I haven't stayed much in Sulan City at the bottom of the mountain, I am a little tired. Yechen Star didn't say much, and sat down with a big grin. The servants on the side were shocked, but this was invited by their own young master, so naturally they had to serve tea and fruit with a smile on their faces.
"Little brother, I envy you so much, you can sign up for the assessment alone. Like me, these guys can't get rid of them. The brocade-clothed boy shook his head and smiled bitterly. Judging by his age, he should be about twenty years old. The appearance is much more mature than that of the Night Star.
At this, Yechenxing just smiled and said nothing. His family background is something that many people can't envy.
"By the way, it's your first time taking the assessment, and it just so happens that I know some inside information about the assessment, do you want to listen to it?" The brocade-clothed boy whispered mysteriously to Yechenxing.
"Oh? I would like to hear about it. "Yechenxing just participated in the assessment with the interest of playing tickets, but since he participated, of course he was unwilling to be pressed down. At the same time, he was also full of expectations for what the entry assessment of the Refining Sect would look like.
"Refining a weapon is a very boring and arduous job, and it often takes months or even years to refine a mysterious weapon. Therefore, the first two assessments of Yantian Sect do not test talent, but heart. If you can't persevere, it's useless even if you have good talent......" The young man in brocade should have little contact with his peers, and he can't stop talking about it as soon as he opens it.
"When you pass the mental assessment, it is the real talent assessment. Don't think that this talent is not important after testing the mental nature, in fact, the talent is just as important. It is said that if you are lower than the fourth-grade fire spirit root, they will let you go home directly. ”
Nightstar tested his talent once when he was three years old, and he still remembers the vision of heaven and earth produced at that time. At that time, the talent displayed by the talent stone pillar was seven grades!
You must know that the family cultivators who can generally break through the mysteries basically have a two-grade spiritual root. Those who have such talent are already one percent among ordinary people. And those who can have a three-grade spiritual root are one in a thousand. Those who have reached the four-rank spiritual root, which is the minimum requirement of the Yantian Sect's assessment, are one ten-thousandth of the remaining people!
But this one ten-thousandth is not the last, you are a fourth-grade spiritual root, yes, but the spiritual root is divided into five elements: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and it is only one-fifth of the fourth-grade fire spiritual root! One can imagine how harsh the requirements for joining the Yantian Sect are for the talent spirit root! And how rebellious the original seven-rank fire spirit root of Yechen Star was. It's no wonder that the night family protected him like a great enemy.
It's just that the Xingyue Continent is much larger than the Earth in the memory of Yechen Star. Luzhou alone is thousands of miles long, and the entire Yanyang Empire, as a medium-sized country on the Star Moon Continent, occupies a territory larger than the entire Eurasian continent. Every three years, a group of fire-type geniuses with more than four grades of talent are born, which is more than enough.
"Also, you must not think that as long as you complete the talent assessment and enter the Yantian Sect, everything will be fine. There is also the final level, which is the phantom array test. In the phantom array, there will be many different tests, and those who can't stick to a stick of incense can't pass it. By the way, from the level of testing talents, the elders and even sect masters of the Yantian Sect will watch from the high platform. Whoever can show strong talent and strength will be favored by the elders and even the sect master and directly accepted as a disciple. Those who were not selected could only become ordinary disciples, and could not be personally taught by the elders, and received very few sect resources. ”
"Thank you Brother Tai for solving my doubts, dare to ask Brother Tai's name." Yechenxing toasted Brother Hua with tea instead of wine. The information he provided would be of great help to the assessment of the Nightstar.
"Whereever, you and I hit it off at first sight, these are all small meanings. My name is Song Yushu. "Song Yushu was very happy, and he made a friend as soon as he arrived in Yantianzong.
"My name is Yechen Xing......" After reporting to each other's homes, they continued to chat.
"Knock...... Boom...... ......The two chatted happily, and a melodious and heavy bell suddenly came from the top of the mountain, echoing between the Sulan Mountains.
"The assessment has begun!" The flow of people in front of them immediately stirred, and everyone hurriedly began to go up the mountain.
"The old servants will go first, young master, be more careful!" Uncle Liao and the other attendants hurriedly collected their things and went down the mountain very reluctantly. Yechenxing found that these servants and entourage truly loved Song Yushu. A person who can treat even a servant like this can never be a bad person. This friend is really good. Wait a minute, if Song Yushu encounters trouble in the assessment, he will also help out with the favor of just a cup of tea.
"Haha, it's finally alone, little brother night, let's go." There are really not many opportunities for this kind of servant to act alone from home, Song Yushu was very excited, and pulled Yechen Star and walked towards the mountain.
The two of them walked all the way until they finally stopped at a platform halfway up the mountain. There are already a lot of teenagers and girls who have come to participate in the assessment.
"This should be the place where the first level of assessment begins." The assessment is finally about to begin, and Song Yushu looks eager to try. Of course, the same is true for the Nightstar.
"Please note that this is the first level of the assessment, climbing the ladder. All the stone steps on the way from here to the gate are subject to a gravitational circle, and you must walk to the end without relying on external forces. If you cheat, you will be disqualified immediately. Well, good luck guys! The elite disciple in charge of this level of examination loudly announced the rules, and the assessment officially began.
"Let's go." The people in front had already begun to climb, and the two of them did not wait and immediately climbed the stone steps. The moment he stepped on the stone steps, Yechenxing immediately felt as if a thousand pounds of weight were pressing on his body in an instant.
Even if he is now at the peak of the five-star mystery, he still feels a little struggling. The nebula cyclone in his body spun at an accelerated pace, and surging Xuan Qi surged towards his legs, and he began to climb upwards step by step.
In contrast, Song Yushu didn't seem to be struggling, and in order to wait for Yechen Star, he deliberately slowed down.
"Brother Song, you better pass the checkpoint first and wait for me in front." There is still a long distance from here to the mountain gate, and Yechen Star does not dare to take it lightly, step by step, and walk forward. But he didn't want Song Yushu to consume too much Xuan Qi because of waiting for him.
"It's okay, this level needs the support of Xuan Qi, I definitely have no problem." Song Yushu is optimistic. Yechen Star didn't say anything more, and concentrated on his own path.
Song Yushu said a little wrong before, although this first level focuses on testing whether the people who come to participate in the assessment have the heart to persevere. But it also implicitly implicitly puts the strength test in it. I believe that without the strength of the Xuan Rank, it is impossible to pass. Song Yushu behaved so easily because he had already advanced to Xuanshi! The people of the big family are really extraordinary. The genius among them is also something that Nightstar has never encountered. After all, Zhou Yi, who won by luck in Shenglongtai, was just an ordinary elite disciple in the Yanyang Sect.
Some of the impatient men lunged at first, but soon lost their strength and stopped halfway through. But even if you stop, this thousand pounds of weight will not be lighter than even a point. The final result was that he exhausted his Xuan Qi and physical strength and fell directly on the stone steps, and was quickly taken away by the disciples of Yantian Sect. These people, of course, also lose their entry qualifications.
The difficulty of the first level is very amazing, and I will come to participate in the assessment, and I also feel that I have the hope of getting started. Otherwise, who would come from thousands of miles just to go through the first pass of the assessment and go home.
Even so, from the first level to the end, more than half of the people who participated in the assessment were brushed down. Even the Night Star, in the end, was soaked with sweat and panting.
However, Song Yushu, who has always followed the Yechen Star in the same way, just spoke a little bit and didn't sweat! If he hadn't known that Song Yushu was already twenty years old and four years older than him, Yechenxing would have been a little unconvinced.
"Please take a break and move on to the next level in an hour." Seeing that the last person insisted on climbing to the finish line, the elite disciple in charge of the assessment announced loudly.
Except for a few people who had broken through the Xuanshi level like Song Yushu, it didn't matter much, and the rest were basically paralyzed on the ground. This hour's rest time is mandatory.
Yechen Xing didn't say much, and immediately sat down on the ground and began to exercise pranayama. Originally, because of the special relationship of the cyclone in his body, his Xuan Qi recovery speed was extremely fast. Later, he learned the Flame Sun Mind Method passed down by the ancestors of the Night Family, and the recovery speed was doubled. It only took half an hour for him to finish pranayama. Unlike some people, who need to rely on medication to recover within an hour.
"Now let's start the second level, please follow me!" The disciple in charge of the assessment brought the rest of the people into a pre-prepared formation this time.
"You have eleven bowls before you, and the largest bowl contains a thousand iron beads of various sizes. Wait a moment and we'll light a stick of incense and open the formation before you can begin. The beads must be placed in ten small bowls in front of you with chopsticks, according to their size. We will check after a stick of incense burns out, and if there is an error, it will automatically be disqualified! "I didn't expect the requirements of this second level to be perverted!
