Outside the magic circle, many people looked at Jian Bufan, and their eyes were full of puzzlement.

"Why didn't he use his sword skills?"

Someone was puzzled. The sword skills in his mouth did not refer to the basic sword skills, but to the deeper sword skills that evolved from the basic sword skills.

Those sword skills are much more powerful than the basic sword skills, making it more difficult for those sword spirits to parry, so as to force out the flaws as soon as possible.

But the sword is extraordinary, from beginning to end, everyone only saw him perform the two basic sword skills of swinging the sword and stabbing the sword.

Someone frowned: "What about his previous sword skills double-edged sword?" Why not? ”

The double-edged sword is one of the famous stunts of Jian Bufan three years ago, which is evolved from the basic sword skill swinging sword, which can greatly enhance the power of swinging the sword.

Someone sneered: "Either it's arrogant, or it's been abandoned for too long and can't be picked up." ”

In fact, what he said was right, during this time, Jian Bufan was busy breaking through the realm and refining his basic sword skills, and he didn't have time to pick up the previous deep-level sword skills.

But as long as Jian Bufan is given enough time, those previous famous sword skills can be recovered.

The time for the half-burnt incense passed quickly, and the test was over.

The sword spirits on the field all dissipated in an instant, and Jian Bufan walked out of the test circle, soaked with sweat all over his body, and a little out of breath.

Looking back, the score displayed in the circle was twenty-two, six different from three years ago.

In fifteen minutes, he only assassinated twenty-two sword spirits, which was expected by Jian Bufan, because he spent all his time on the training of drawing and swinging his sword, and he did not have much training on stabbing swords.

Twenty-two, this score can only be regarded as above average.

At this time, everyone's attention was not on the results of Jian Bufan's sword stabbing, and everyone's eyes were staring at the sword list, waiting for Jian Bufan's ranking to change.

The tests of pulling, swinging, and stabbing have all passed, and the new sword ranking of Jian Bufan is about to be released.

I saw that above the sword list, the name of the thirty-fifth sword was temporarily gone, and after a while, it reappeared on the sword list.

Sword Extraordinary - Forty-first!

As soon as this ranking came out, a sigh suddenly sounded in the martial arts arena.

Three years ago, Jian Bufan's ranking was twenty-nine, and in the past three years, it has stagnated and dropped to thirty-five.

Many people thought that Jian Bufan's strength had recovered, and the ranking should be able to surpass some back, but they didn't expect that not only did they not improve, but their rankings dropped six places.

Many of the older generation frowned, obviously not very satisfied with Jian Bufan's achievement.

Some younger people even laughed strangely: "Haha, forty-one, my ranking is forty, this former first day is not even as good as me." ”

As soon as these words came out, many laughing voices suddenly sounded, and it seemed to be gloating.

Jian Bufan didn't care, his current strength was growing rapidly every day, and it was only a matter of time before he rose in the rankings.

At this time, he was sweating profusely and just wanted to go back and take a comfortable shower.

However, someone blocked his way.

This is a young man with thick eyebrows, dressed plainly, and a very old-fashioned-looking person.

Jian Bufan saw that he didn't seem to be hostile, he just frowned and looked at himself, as if he wanted to say something to himself, and after a long time, he gritted his teeth and said-

"Jian Bufan, with your current strength, it is impossible to win Galen, it is better to find a way to withdraw the bet, the invitation to defeat the academy is too heavy, and you can't lose."

Jian Bufan was stunned for a moment, and then realized in his heart.

The young man in front of him, who looked a little old-fashioned, actually had no ill will towards him, but simply thought that he would definitely lose to Galen, and he didn't want the sword family to suffer losses.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I won't lose."

Jian Bufan smiled and spoke, without explaining much, and walked straight past the old-fashioned young man after speaking, but there was a group of embarrassed laughter behind him, as if Jian Bufan had just told a joke.

Jian Bufan stopped, felt the mocking voices, and suddenly realized a very serious problem-

As a person who wants to become the head of the Sword Family in the future, because he has been absurd for three years, he has no prestige among the children of the Sword Family at this time......

That's not going to work!

Jian Bufan frowned, he was going to become the next head of the family, but if he didn't establish his prestige, even if he forcibly inherited the family business, it would be difficult to get support.

Jian Bufan fell into deep thought, his brows gradually relaxed, isn't there an opportunity to establish his prestige in front of him.

He turned around, returned to the old-fashioned young man, and asked, "Then what do you think I need to be at least to reach in order to have the strength to fight Galen?" ”

The old-fashioned young man thought seriously for a moment and replied, "The first twenty-five is needed." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the martial arts arena shook their heads. It's not that I don't agree with the words of the old-fashioned young man, but I think that it is impossible for Jian Bufan to reach that ranking.

Jian Bufan looked up at the twenty-fifth place in the sword list-

The distance between drawing the sword is six meters, the swing of the sword is one hundred and thirty swords, and the stabbing sword is thirty-five.

Jian Bufan stared at the ranking of the sword list and pondered for a while, and then smiled at the old-fashioned young man: "Twenty-five is still too low, it's better to be twenty." ”

"What ......" The old-fashioned young man was shocked.

I saw that Jian Bufan suddenly faced the people in the martial arts arena, and said loudly: "Three days later, I will test again, if the ranking does not reach the top twenty, I will never step into this martial arts arena for half a step, but if I successfully squeeze into the top twenty, you must respectfully call me a young master when you see me in the future, how about it?" ”

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderclap.

"Is he crazy?"

"The top 20 are all elites of the older generation...... It's simply impossible! ”

In the crowd, some people seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly shouted to Jian Bufan: "Jian Bufan, are you serious?" ”

These people were all people who had a grudge against Jian Bufan before, and at this time, they jumped out one after another like fierce beasts that had only found their prey.

"Seriously."

Jian Bufan's concise response immediately made those people excited, as if he was afraid that Jian Bufan would regret it, and said loudly: "Okay! Ha ha! What a spirit! Then we will come to see your extraordinary demeanor in three days. ”

……

The crowd gradually dispersed, and the expressions on everyone's faces were wonderful.

Presumably, Jian Bufan's promise in the martial arts arena today will become the focus of attention of the sword family, and even this news will spread to the outside world......

"Xiaofan, you are too reckless......"

A middle-aged man in iron armor walked over and sighed deeply, he was the head of the martial arts arena, Jian Chang.

"Uncle Chang."

Jian Bufan bowed respectfully to the middle-aged man and said, "Since I dare to promise, I am naturally sure." ”

Jian Bufan was right, the swordsman in the dojo had a rune on his body that increased his attack speed, as long as Jian Bufan got this rune, the test of his sword skills would not be a problem for him.

If he wasn't sure, Jian Bufan wouldn't have made such a promise at all.

Uncle Chang said: "If you lose, you will never step into the martial arts arena for half a step, do you know what it means?" ”

Jian Bufan replied calmly: "It means that I will lose my qualification to become the head of the Sword Family." ”

The martial arts arena is the core place of the sword family, and those who can't step into the martial arts arena naturally can't become the head of the sword family.

"But if I succeed, I will be truly qualified to become the head of the Sword Family, and even if I lose the duel with Galen, no one will be able to shake my foundation."

The greater the risk, the greater the reward.

Jian Chang looked at Jian Bufan in silence, as if he didn't know what to say for a while.

After a long time, he sighed, as if encouraging: "Young man, since you have made your choice, then go for it!" ”

After speaking, he reached out and gently patted Jian Bufan's shoulder.

At this moment, a flash of golden light flashed on Jian Bufan's shoulder, and at the same time, an immature voice of incomparably excitement sounded in his mind-

"Congratulations to the hosts! This time, you have successfully stolen the skill: Critical Blow! ”

Jian Bufan was so stunned that he watched Uncle Chang go away, frozen in place, stupid for a long time......
