Three days later, Zhongzhou City, the vertical and horizontal sword faction.

Hundreds of miles of flat land, the hall is dense, the sound of the bell chime, the momentum is magnificent, and the morale is high.

Outside the mountain gate, Chen Xiu's big eyes were round, his mouth was wide open, he didn't react for a long time, and looked at the four big characters on the top of the gate in front of him.

"The Vertical and Horizontal Sword Sect has finally arrived. Chen Xiu showed a long-lost smile on his face.

After three days of difficult trekking, he got lost during the period, and after a few laps, he found that there were many people who were also rushing to the direction of the Zongheng Sword Sect, so he simply followed these people from a distance and rushed to the Zongheng Sword Sect together.

Outside the mountain gate, there were thousands of people, dressed in strange costumes, all walking towards the gate with great anticipation.

On the left and right sides of the gate, there were six people standing on each side, these people were all dressed in white and carrying a sword on their backs, and everyone greeted this year's candidates with smiles on their faces, they were naturally the outer disciples of the Zongheng Sword Sect.

......

Half an hour later, the martial arts training ground, which was wide enough to accommodate 10,000 people, was crowded with people who had come to participate in the annual assessment of recruiting new disciples from the Vertical and Horizontal Sword Sect.

On the martial arts field, it is very chaotic, the voices of people are boiling, on all sides of the martial arts field, there is a stone pillar dozens of zhang high, on the stone pillar, there are all kinds of iron swords, which is particularly spectacular.

Chen Xiu squeezed for a long time before he squeezed to the first position, and at this moment, to his left, stood a slender girl in a pink dress, the girl looked about eighteen or nineteen years old.

Chen Xiu took a cursory look at the woman, only to feel that her heart was rippling, as if she had the feeling of first love, the girl had a tall and slender figure, a standard melon seed face, fair skin, and a long black ponytail, which looked particularly clean, pure, delicate and cute.

"Everyone, be quiet, and then I will announce the assessment rules. An old voice sounded, and the sound was like a flood, resounding in all directions.

As this voice came out, the thousands of people on the martial arts training ground instantly fell silent, and they looked up at the top of the martial arts training ground one by one.

At the seventy-two steps up the martial arts training ground, on the wide square stone platform, I don't know when, seven men and two women were already sitting on the stone chairs.

"Old man Han Invade, is the elder of the Law Enforcement Pavilion, the 332nd new disciple assessment of the Vertical and Horizontal Sword Sect, presided over by the old man, next, every word the old man says, you need to keep it in mind. At the front of the square stone platform, a white-haired old man stood with his hands in his hands, and the whole person looked majestic and upright, and it was the white-haired old man who spoke.

"The enrollment rules of this assessment, first of all, those who enter the top 200 in the grades, pay a fee of 1,000 copper coins, they can enter the outer door to practice, and obtain the qualification of the outer disciple, and those with exceptionally excellent grades will be exempted from their fees, and they can become the closed disciples of any of the other Seven Pavilion elders except me and the head of the sect, and obtain the qualification of the inner disciple. ”

As soon as the white-haired old man said this, the thousands of people in the audience were even more high-spirited, and they all looked like they were bound to win, but Chen Xiu looked at the old man above and was sullen.

"Pay a thousand copper coins, so much money, even if you pass the assessment, you can't do it without copper coins, it seems that you can only strive for the qualification of a disciple of the inner sect. Chen Xiu had secretly made up his mind that no matter what, he would also enter the inner gate to practice.

"Next, the assessment begins, the first level, enter the Warcraft Forest, hunt the demon beast, take its demon core, the time is one hour, after an hour, the assessment is over, no matter what method you use, as long as you get more than three people with the demon core, you can enter the second level. "White-haired old man, with a high-pitched voice" Each person will issue a teleportation order to open the Warcraft Forest. ”

After the white-haired old man finished speaking, there were thousands of people on the field, and in everyone's hands, a purple round token instantly appeared, and everyone on the field raised their hearts to their throats, looking at one by one, each thinking about it.

"In the Warcraft Forest, all the demon beasts are real, this teleportation order, in the case that you can't compete with it, throw it casually, you can be teleported out, once it comes out, it will be regarded as giving up, and the qualification for this year's assessment will be cancelled. ”

"Assessment, start. ”

As the white-haired old man finished speaking, the thousands of people on the scene instantly disappeared into a blue-brown whirlpool hovering above the martial arts training ground.

By the time he reacted, Chen Xiu was already standing under an ancient tree, surrounded by towering trees, small trees and weeds, lush and quiet.

Chen Xiu looked around and found that there was no figure, at this moment, he was alone in this place.

"Inner disciple. The corners of Chen Xiu's mouth showed an arc, and his right hand quickly pulled out the long knife on his left shoulder, and his eyes scanned around, looking for prey.

......

On the square stone platform, the white-haired old man Han Chong, and the other eight elders all looked intently at a piece of jade in the center of the stone platform, which was a hundred inches wide and long, and at this moment, a colorful picture appeared on the jade.

"I don't know who among these thousands of people in this session can be qualified as an inner disciple. On the left side of the stone platform, a woman in a light blue dress said, the woman looked like twenty-seven or eight, her appearance was amazing, under the background of the blue dress, the whole person looked like a hibiscus out of the water, pure and elegant, quiet and natural, her voice was very crisp, giving people a listen, relaxed and happy, in her eyes, revealing a trace of expectation.

"Haha, Elder Shen Yu, just your Sword Spirit Pavilion, don't think about it, what can you learn, don't delay the future of these children! Opposite the woman, a middle-aged man with golden hair and an obese body laughed loudly and said loudly.

"Just your Imperial Sword Pavilion is powerful. ”

"Haha, my Imperial Sword Pavilion, of course it's amazing, you don't look at who is the elder of the Imperial Sword Pavilion, it's not like your Sword Spirit Pavilion, which has been established for a hundred years, and no decent person has come out, just say that the last year's talented man broke the South Gate, that is, he entered your Sword Spirit Pavilion, and a Taoist cultivator was made into a madman alive, hahaha, ridiculous. ”

"Jin Xiaolei, don't go too far. ”

"Haha, I'm telling the truth, what, you still can't accept it, hahaha. ”

"Okay, you two, who are also the two elders of the No. 1 Sword Sect in the continent, how can you still be as strong as a child here. Above the stone platform, a white-haired old man suddenly spoke, his voice was fierce, and he stopped him sternly.

"Boss. ”

Shen Yu and Jin Xiaolei spoke at the same time, put their hands on each other, looked at the old man above the stone platform, bowed slightly, and then both quieted down, and their eyes returned to the inky jade.

"Look, someone has encountered a fifth-order demon beast. Han Yan said suddenly.

On the ink-colored jade, the picture is frozen in the position where Chen Xiu is.

"He, he was born with blocked meridians, dry dantian, unable to practice, in front of him, but that terrible carnivorous bird. A middle-aged woman beside Jin Xiaolei looked a little ugly, and said with a frown.

"Haha, it's so bold to think that I'm fishing in troubled waters across the Sword Sect! Jin Xiaolei laughed loudly, looked at Chen Xiu in the picture, and looked disdainful, "I want to see what he should do." ”

The people on the stone platform looked at Chen Xiu in the picture with relish.

Chen Xiu wandered around the forest for a long time, and when he reached the edge of a mountain cliff, a behemoth suddenly appeared behind him, this big thing was a big bird, with a beak half a meter long, big eyes, a little scareless, three meters tall, flapping his wings all the time, looking at him fiercely in front of him.

"But you really know how to choose a place! Forward, you are blocking me, and backward, there is a cliff, is this trying to kill me?" Chen Xiu's eyes were sharp, he held the long knife tightly, and looked at the big bird in front of him with a majestic fighting spirit.

He had never seen anything about this big bird, he didn't know what its name was, and he didn't know how powerful it was, so he had to be calm and fight against it without any waves.

"Look at you so scary, grandpa will give you a name! Just call you a scary bird, and let you die a decent death." ”

Chen Xiu's eyes collided with the eyes of the scary bird, both of which were full of fighting intent.

......

"Haha, what a big breath, it's extremely stupid, this demon beast is a fifth-order demon beast, and its attack power is extremely strong, even if I want to kill it, it's a little difficult, even a kid who can't practice wants to fight with it, and I can't help myself. Jin Xiaolei was so angry that his beard skyrocketed, he looked at Chen Xiu's ignorant appearance, scratching his cheeks and making trouble, like a crazy lion.

Everyone on the stone platform glanced at Jin Xiaolei and ignored it, it seemed that they were used to him like this, although they were watching, they were also sweating for Chen Xiu.

If Chen Xiu really didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and fought with the terrifying bird, he would only be the food in the belly of the terrifying bird, and he would only be killed in this demonic beast forest.

The picture on the ink-colored jade made the people present sweat again.

Rattle!

The scary bird suddenly flapped its wings and struck towards Chen Xiu.

After a stalemate with the scary bird for a few quarters of an hour, the moment the frightening bird attacked, Chen Xiu held the long knife and quickly attacked the frightening bird.

When he was about to get close to the Hacking Bird, Chen Xiu suddenly changed direction and attacked towards the Horror Bird's flank.

With a wave of the long knife in his hand, he slashed at the wings of the hacking bird, but due to the large difference in height, the wings of the hacking bird were extremely long and extremely large, and Chen Xiu cut it down with a knife, only cutting off a few feathers of the hacking bird.

Chen Xiu didn't stop for anything, thinking about quickly turning over behind the hacking bird, but the speed of the hacking bird seemed to be faster, and before Chen Xiu could turn over, he was fanned back to his original position by the hacking bird with its wings.

The strength of the terrifying bird was too strong, and this time, Chen Xiu's limbs that were fanned seemed to fall apart, and the pain was incomparable, and he endured the severe pain and got up.

The hacking bird suddenly flapped its wings and rushed towards Chen Xiu, Chen Xiu saw this, and he didn't have time to care about the pain in his body, holding the long knife, and rushed towards the horror bird again.

Because the cliff is too narrow, Chen Xiu must rush to the back of the Hacking Bird to have room to play, and if he fights the Horror Bird head-on, the end will only be death.

Boom!

Just as Chen Xiu wanted to rush behind the Horror Bird, the Horror Bird's feet suddenly jumped up, its wings shook, and it slapped heavily on Chen Xiu's body.

Before Chen Xiu could react, he was slapped out and fell only half a zhang wide from the cliff, and the long knife came out of his hand and fell off the cliff.

Looking at the cliff behind him, he couldn't help but change color, if he fell from here, there would be only one way to die, thinking, Chen Xiu stood up suddenly, quickly took out the longbow behind him, took out three arrows and put them on the string, and shot them violently.

"My long knife has been with me for more than ten years, and today I fell off the cliff because of you, you go and die!"

Chen Xiu's eyes were red, and the whole person exuded a murderous aura, and three arrows were shot, followed by three more arrows, and nine arrows were shot out by Chen Xiugang, heading straight for the terrifying bird.

The terrifying bird was tall and couldn't fly, and the nine arrows shot by Chen Xiu, it had nowhere to hide, and they all shot at its body.

The terrifying bird let out a few low chirps, and then his eyes were fierce, ignoring the pain caused by the bow and arrow entering his body, and rushed straight towards Chen Xiu.

Seeing this, Chen Xiu touched his back again, the arrows had run out, and in the face of the rushing horror bird, he quickly pulled out the dagger from his waist with an expressionless face and rushed towards the horror bird.

Rumble!

A flash of pink rainbow light pierced the Hacking Bird's body, followed by a flying sword, heading straight for the Horror Bird's head and slashing off.

In an instant, the huge bird lay on the ground, fluttering up clouds of dust.

"Dead. Chen Xiu was sluggish, his hanging heart finally relaxed, he looked up and saw that it was a girl in a pink dress.

"It's her. ”
