Chapter 10: The Stone Stairs to Heaven
"Knock, knock, knock—"
Just as everyone was talking, a buzzing sound suddenly sounded in the distance, and this sound directly turned into a sound wave, enveloping the entire Supreme Sword Sect, and the bell made all the disciples standing on the square be able to hear it!
As the bell rang, several figures suddenly flew out of the back mountain of the Supreme Sword Sect, like a dazzling light, instantly attracting the attention of countless disciples.
The bell rang three times, reverberating inside and outside the Supreme Sword Sect, melodious and shocking!
The bell rang three times, and the once-in-a-decade disciple assessment finally began!
Because this day, all the disciples have been waiting for too long!
At this moment, whether it was an outer disciple, an inner disciple, a top disciple or a core disciple, they all put down what they were doing and looked at the top of the Tsinghua Hall, their eyes full of incomparable yearning.
All the disciples stood in a clear position and did not transgress.
Standing in front of the disciples were the elders who were in charge of various affairs.
At this moment, the bell rang, and there was a marble platform in front of the Qinghua Palace, and the five people on the platform were all wearing golden robes, standing proudly on the crowd, signaling everyone to be quiet, they were the supreme sword sect master, deputy sect master, Dan king, sword master, and treasure master.
Next to the five people, there is a stone pillar, and at the top of the stone pillar is a jade platform.
There are nine jade pillars carved on the jade platform, constantly exuding dazzling light, there is a platform in the middle of the jade pillar, the platform is hazy and all the disciples can't see through, and there are figures flickering from time to time.
After a moment of bells, looking at the disciples who were gradually quieting down, the deputy sect master on the marble platform used spiritual power to exert his voice and shouted, "The disciple assessment starts now!"
Hou Yu is about to participate in the assessment at this moment, but his heart is not as excited as it was at the beginning.
"I've never been here, and when I look at fantasy novels, my heart is extremely yearning for a life in another world. However, when I really came to this other world, the darkness of this world was much more than that of the previous life. Hou Yuzheng muttered in his heart, and suddenly there was a constant noise in the distance, and everyone looked up towards the place where the sound came from, only to see that in the square of the Supreme Sword Sect, the originally flat ground suddenly began to shake.
With a loud vibration, the earth began to tear apart, countless figures began to retreat, and super dazzling light continued to shoot out from the torn earth!
The sound of "boom" and "boom" was constantly emitted, and this sound was like thunder, resounding throughout the Supreme Sword Sect.
In the eyes of countless disciples, there were ten stone steps comparable to a small mountain, rising to the sky!
Looking at these ten stone steps rising from the ground, everyone's pupils shrank and gasped.
Hou Yu also felt the same way, because the scene at this moment was really too shocking, the ten stone steps were like sitting and lying on the desolate giant beasts, comparable to the mountain peaks, I really couldn't imagine what kind of cultivation it was to be able to pull up these ten stone steps alive!
"If an outer disciple wants to become an inner disciple, he has to go through this level. Guo Gu whispered to Hou Yu: "This stone step is called Tongtian Stone Steps, it is a level for outer disciples to assess inner disciples, there are six hundred steps on it, the more you go up, the stronger this pressure is, if you can step on one hundred and fifty steps, you can become an inner disciple." ”
"What if you can step on two hundred steps?" asked Hou Yu.
"Two hundred steps, it is very difficult for our disciples in the early stage of the Huangyuan Realm of the outer sect. Let me tell you like this, the two hundredth steps have the coercion of the peak of the Huangyuan Realm, the three hundredth order has the coercion of the early stage of the Xuanyuan Realm, the four hundredth order has the coercion of the peak of the Xuanyuan Realm, and the five hundredth order has the coercion of the early stage of the Earth Source Realm. ”
Guo Gu saw that Hou Yu wanted to know this, so he patiently explained, because he knew that Hou Yu had been in retreat all these years, and there were several times when Senior Sister Xia came to him halfway, but he didn't leave the customs.
Therefore, he knew that Hou Yu didn't know anything about these things in the assessment, so he hurriedly explained.
"What about the second and third scenes?" Hou Yu asked as he looked at Guo Gu.
"The second level is the experience between the inner disciples, the training ground is in Kunlun Mountain above our sect, and the third is to test the strength, by everyone to draw lots to challenge, compete for the ranking, the top 100 can become the top disciples, the top 10 can be designated to challenge the core disciples, and the core disciples will be defeated and then replace the ranking. And the top ten core disciples will compete again, and the top three can be appreciated by the five elders of the sect and accepted as true disciples. For example, if we have an inner disciple, we are already content. Guo Gudao.
Hou Yu pondered alone, looked at Su Heng and Guo Gu with strange eyes, and said with a somewhat strange expression: "What are your rankings?"
"Ahem! That's a little embarrassing!"
Su Heng and the others all turned a little red, but the corners of Guo Gu's mouth twitched slightly, and he whispered to Hou Yu: "We haven't even entered the inner disciples, how can we have a ranking." ”
Hou Yu was stunned for a moment, smiled slightly, and didn't ask any more, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.
"Actually, you don't have to be nervous, because your strength is much stronger than ours, and we almost passed back then. It seemed that he felt a little embarrassed and embarrassed, and Sun Heng suddenly came out with this sentence.
"Close?" Guo Gu immediately answered: "At that time, you were the one who had the most rank among us, but you couldn't bear it when you only reached the forty-fifth rank at most, and now you tell him that we are a little worse." ”
Hearing this, Su Heng was full of black lines in his head, and wanted to scold Guo Gu for exposing him, but he still held back for the sake of face.
The corners of Hou Yu's mouth curled slightly, looking at the two living treasures around him tearing each other, shaking his head and saying nothing.
......
"Senior Brother Chenyu! It's Senior Brother Chenyu! Come and see!"
At this moment, the uproar suddenly rang out again.
Hou Yu looked up and looked forward, only to see Chen Yu dressed in white, with his hands behind his back, with pride and contempt in his expression, slowly walking through the crowd, standing directly in front of the disciples, but no one dared to stop him.
Gongsun Hu stood in front of Hou Yu, Hou Yu looked up and just saw him, Gongsun Hu also turned his head and glanced at each other, Gongsun Hu seemed to be lip syncing to him: "Trash! It's better not to let me meet you, anyway, if you can't cultivate, you will definitely not meet me." ”
Hou Yu also lip-pouted with him: "Today you are destined to be trampled under my feet!"
Gongsun Hu also seemed to understand Hou Yu's mouth shape, and lowered his head to say something to Lieyang Ning'er next to him.
I saw Lieyang Ning'er standing on the right side of Gongsun Hu, suddenly grabbed Gongsun Hu's arm, turned his head and snorted coldly at him.
"During these times of my retreat, did Liu Weichun come to me?" Hou Yu suddenly asked, now that the sect assessment has begun, it is inevitable that the enemy will meet, so it is better to inquire about his whereabouts now, and take the initiative in everything.
"No ......" Sun Heng shook his head slightly and said first: "Then Liu Weichun has never come to him since Liu Dachun died, usually Liu Dachun took the initiative to contact Liu Weichun, and now that Liu Dachun is dead, no one has contacted him, so he naturally did not appear." ”
Hou Yu's eyes flashed, in fact, he was not afraid of Liu Weichun, because after five years of retreat, Hou Yu knew what his current strength was.
......
On the jade platform, the fog was cloudy, and someone heard the sound from time to time.
An old man with a slight masculinity raised his voice and sighed: "The ten-year sect assessment is finally about to begin." ”
And another old voice responded lightly: "I don't know if this year's disciples, if there are one or two outstanding talents, can we surprise the old man and let my Dan Dao line have an heir." ”
The slightly masculine old man's tone was rather dissatisfied, "What kind of surprise do you want? You already have a true disciple, right?"
The old man's voice still responded lightly: "There are regulations in this sect that the number of true disciples brought by the grandmaster level shall not exceed ten, and my true disciples have really not changed for a long time in these years. ”
The old man, who was the first to speak with a little masculinity, mocked mercilessly: "What else do you want, we can accept ten true disciples, you have only accepted one apprentice after thousands of years, and this is still called no change? You don't want to accept it at all!"
"Hmph, Jian Wuji. Shut up for me! How do you let me collect these crooked melons and cracked dates, you must know that I never care much about accepting disciples, but care about essence, and I want high-quality products!"
The old man was surrounded by a fiery red light, and through the fiery red light, he could see that he was wearing a fiery red robe and said with some annoyance, speaking of which, the old man seemed to be unable to vent the grievances in his heart, and he was extremely excited!
This person is Xia Ye's father, the old sect master of the last session, a person who has lived for 10,000 years, named Xia Jiuling!
