The Scorpion King Mountain Range is a huge mountain range that stretches tens of thousands of miles in the easternmost part of Yuzhou, this mountain range runs through the north and south and borders the East China Sea, like a natural stone wall dividing the vast sea and the vast continent in two.

So much so that the Pang Long Empire and the Wanyan Divine Kingdom, to which the Scorpion King Mountain Range belongs, have been adjacent to the sea for tens of thousands of years, but few people can have a glimpse of the grandeur and vastness of the East China Sea, let alone experience the mountain treasures by the sea, which only the two royal families have the ability to fish and enjoy.

After all, there are countless demons in the Scorpion King Mountain Range, and not everyone can pass through them safely.

There is such a peaceful place in the endless Scorpion King Mountain Range, surrounded by hundreds of miles away from the birds and flowers, the spirit birds and fruits are all over the mountains, this place is directly adjacent to the East China Sea, you can watch the sunrise in the east every day, you can listen to the ebb and flow of the tide, you can enjoy the east seafood shrimp, you can eat the deep-sea crabs, and at night there is a chance to enjoy the stars and the stars of the sea mirror, which is regarded as the reversal of heaven and earth and has a unique charm.

This peaceful place originally had only one apricot grove, but the four seasons are like spring, and the apricot blossoms are flying, falling into the forest all year round, and over time it turns into an apricot forest pond. However, all the apricot blossoms that fall into this place do not wither or rot, but only flutter in the wind, making the entire apricot forest and the mountains full of vitality.

Originally, even if this paradise was beautiful and quiet, it would never make the whole of Yuzhou a household name.

Just because in this foreign land, it is not only an apricot forest pool, but also the opening door of the long-standing martial arts gate 'Apricot Forest Pond'.

Although 'Xinglin Pond' is not one of the top martial arts holy places in Yuzhou, it is the most complete collection of martial arts classics in Yuzhou and the most widely studied martial arts school.

It's just that maybe the luck is not good, or the disciples of the sect are not qualified, there has never been a martial immortal born here, or the pseudo-martial god who can survive the tribulation of the martial god survives, and the legendary martial god has never been included in the assessment of the major martial arts sects.

After all, there have only been two of them in the past 100,000 years, but this is already a glorious scene of martial arts for millions of years.

However, even so, Xinglin Pond has still stood in the world for tens of thousands of years, which has to have a lot to do with its transcendent realm powerhouses all over Yuzhou and the protection of martial arts by the martial gods in the world.

The martial arts of the world, which is guarded by the eight martial gods, once said to the world, "The immortal gate must not take the initiative to slaughter the martial arts court, otherwise it will be destroyed." ”

After all, martial arts are really bumpy and difficult compared to immortal dao, and it is even more difficult to achieve success, if not, martial arts will be difficult to prosper.

What's more, there are not only those eight martial gods in the world, even if the martial arts are transferred to the immortal path, the martial immortals are still martial arts people after all, and they are not willing to offend the immortal sect, even if there is a sect of immortal kings in the world, they are not willing to exceed the rules.

However, today's apricot forest pond is no longer as quiet as it used to be, and the hustle and bustle around has long broken the Scorpion King Mountain Range, which has been silent for a long time.

Outside the Xinglin Pond, on the coast adjacent to the East China Sea, there are tens of thousands of young children, ready to try.

Because the next tens of thousands of people will accept the entrance test of Xinglin Pond, and those who can finally pass these three postgraduate examinations can stay here and worship Xinglin Pond.

The eliminated people will turn around and get on the boat, sitting on the exclusive sail of the apricot forest pond and drifting back.

On the edge of the shoreline, two inconspicuous gray figures are whispering.

"Second brother, you are so powerful, it is so easy for us to pass the preliminary examination and come here to participate in the entry selection, otherwise I don't know if we will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey. Xu Changan, who kept rolling around with two big smart eyes, whispered to Su Jingran.

Su Jingran pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "It's not all money. Thinking of the already small savings, and now it is about to bottom out, although Su Jingran said that there was nothing on his face, his heart was already painful as if he was dripping blood.

Because when the two of them once again rushed to the Pang Long Empire on the immortal boat and followed the instructions of Su Jingran's leyline immortal map to the direction of Xinglin Pond, Su Jingran did not take the liberty to lead Xu Changan straight to this place.

Instead, he first inquired about the location of the sect and the way to accept disciples from the local county, and the locals were already surprised, so they skillfully collected the money and began to explain the two in detail.

After all, although Xinglin Pond is not the best martial arts holy place in Yuzhou, it is indeed the best court in the entire eastern part of Yuzhou.

Locals say that Xinglinchi lives along the coast, and it is supposed to start accepting apprentices every winter, and the people who accept them have to investigate their names and household registrations before they can participate in the registration.

As for the usual times, it is not that there are no individual disciples who are included in the door wall, all of them are good seedlings with excellent qualifications, and they are fortunate to skip the outer gate directly, and go straight to the inner door to worship the major elders and the first to be accepted as a disciple, but that is one in ten thousand.

However, this year is different, there was a chance to sign up for entry in the same month that Xu Changan and the others came, as for the specific reason, they didn't know, they only knew that this was 500 more places than the usual normal apprentices, which was bizarre.

After Su Jingran understood it clearly, he took Xu Changan to the nearby Qianji Palace, and spent some spirit beads to inquire about anyone in the nearby state capitals who could buy a person with a suitable identity and no worries for money.

After a busy night, Su Jingran and Xu Changan finally got two reliable identity documents, and then swaggered to Xinglindu to sign up for the entry selection.

After waiting for a few more days, the two finally came to the mountain gate of Xinglin Pond today.

"Second brother, what do you say they will assess us later?"

"It's nothing more than just five kinds, qualification, wisdom, understanding, roots, and perseverance. ”

"Oh, then the second brother, wouldn't it be very easy for the two of us to pass the test, what if I performed too well and was directly accepted as a disciple. I still want you to teach me. ”

"I'll teach you a fart, you will try to drive your full strength later, and then get the attention of the people inside, I, a martial arts layman, have been guiding you for a long time, do you think your progress is very fast now? You can tell me that you yourself are also diligent during this time, what stage is the first realm of martial arts? What style of "Swordsmanship" has been practiced? Compared with the original, what progress have you made? There are less than two and a half years left for us. If you want me to say it a few times, your target is the Supreme Immortal Temple. Su Jingran said with some hatred that iron does not become steel.

Xu Changan lowered his head and thought about it, it seemed that he was still only in the early stage of the Three Realms of Martial Arts, although "Swordsmanship Serious" had some good results, but the description of the power on it was still very different.

Thinking of this, Xu Changan said stupidly: "But people have worked really hard, and their cultivation has been growing, but I don't know why the initial bottleneck that was once easily reached is not visible now." ”

Su Jingran said coldly: "Then have you considered it, maybe you haven't worked hard enough, you haven't been diligent enough, maybe becoming stronger in your heart is far less happy than your usual leisurely life, maybe you don't have the luxury of reaching the god realm in the past." Although Su Jingran knew that he was completely unfair to Xu Changan when he said this, and even a little ruthless.

But he had to stimulate Xu Changan again, because Xu Changan's progress was really slower than he expected.

Although he knew that Xu Changan was not to blame for all this, just because his physique was already like this, and he was not to blame him for not working hard, just because he couldn't speed up even if he worked hard for ten hours a day.

Su Jingran was already a little anxious in his heart, because the time left was really not much for the two of them.

Xu Changan was smart after all, even if he heard Su Jingran's ruthless blow, he still heard the meaning of concern from it.

However, knowing and knowing does not prevent Xu Changan from really doubting whether he is really working hard. Because the results of facts always speak louder than words, he Xu Chang'an and before leaving Yuhuangguan, it seems that he has not changed much. Has he really worked hard in the past four months?

A long conch sound shattered Xu Changan's deep thoughts, and in an instant, the entire coast returned to calm. I saw a muscular man wearing short clothes and long trousers standing on the stone platform with a steel knife on his back, Lang Lang said: "All the disciples who signed up for the competition, take out your spirit and spirit, and prepare well for the postgraduate entrance examination you are about to face. ”

After speaking, another white-bearded and white-haired elder stood up and explained the following three rules for the postgraduate entrance examination to everyone.

The first level is the sea of bitter bamboo, a group of 1,000 people, who can cut down the caryophyllus in the forest and arrive at the designated place ten miles away, the top 500 will be considered to have passed, and the first 100 people who arrive within the 100 and knock down the most caryophyllus will directly advance to the third round, and the second round will be exempted.

The second level is the plum blossom crossing, the first round of the same group of the rest of the people as a group, across the same ten miles long plum blossom pile, as long as one step on the air, fall into the mountains and forests under ten zhang, it is considered to lose, must remember that peers can not hurt people's lives, otherwise directly killed. Again, the first two hundred are counted as passing the trial.

The third level is Moyun Cliff, the remaining two thousand people in a group, climb the cliff of the East China Sea together, the first thousand to pass the level, remember that there will be our apricot forest pond domesticated beasts to interfere from it, if it falls into the sea, it will be directly lost.

After hearing this, Xu Changan laughed and smiled at his second brother Su Jingran: "I thought that the difficult postgraduate entrance examination was not difficult at all. ”

Su Jingran also smiled knowingly, just this difficulty is really not difficult, even if Xu Changan, who can't use the power contained in his body, can still easily pass the test with his bare hands.

Soon after, everyone was grouped, Xu Changan was divided into the first group, and Su Jingran was divided into three groups. After that, the group was taken to different venues to prepare for the trial.

As a martial arts court that has been inherited for tens of thousands of years, this trial site is really not a fight, even if tens of thousands come, Xinglin Pond can still withstand it at the same time.

Thinking that in the next day, Xinglin Pond will enter a more lively scene, as for the people involved in it are happy or sad, it all depends on destiny and personal ability.

Life in the world is three points of hard work, seven points of providence, all depends on the present day.
