Chapter 18: Leaving a Name in the Martial Arts Test (3)

Half a month later, it happened to be the day of the biennial Jialan martial arts test in the camp of the Zhennan Governor.

On this day, the camp was full of tiger-headed flags, and the ground was divided on the training ground, and two open spaces were divided, and a square stone platform about ten zhang wide was erected as a test site. One stone platform is the field for the warlock to be examined, and the other is for the samurai.

At this moment, the people of all camps gathered here, watching around the two assessment venues, and the crowds were crowded. Everyone talked about it, some were eager to try, some were hesitant and hesitant, and many were just here to watch the excitement. At this time, the test audit had not officially begun, and the White Tiger Grand Overseer, led by the Heavenly Fury Mage, Zhang Musha, the head of the Knight Battalion, Liu Lingkong, the deacon of the Mage Battalion, and several other battalion supervisors, as well as a group of test officers, were standing on the supervision and test bench in the middle of the two assessment venues.

The audience was noisy, and all kinds of discussions and jokes were endless. It's no wonder that the biennial Jialan martial arts test is like the grandest festival in this camp, in this day, from sunrise to sunset, everything is closed, just for the test, for most people, the right to watch a play in the market, wonderful and exciting.

In order to have a good time, You Ruo pulled Luo Yin to rush to seize the closest position to the stone platform early in the morning. At this moment, the two of them were crowded on the sidelines, surrounded by circles of people behind them.

"What is this assessment?" Luo Yin Chao asked.

"The examination of warlocks and samurai is divided into two classes, one is the second-class examination, and those who have completed the first year of naturalization can apply for the examination, and those who pass the examination will be promoted to the second-class warlock or samurai, and the other is the first-class examination, all second-class candidates can apply for the examination, and those who pass the examination can be promoted to the first-class warlock or samurai. The application for the examination is entirely based on personal wishes, and those who believe that their ability has been reached can register for the examination on the spot. After that, You Qiruo pointed to a row of iron frames in front of the Nadu test bench, and said: "Look, the shelf is full of test marks, and if you take the blue one, it means that you want to apply for the second-class assessment, and if you take the red one, it means that you will apply for the first-class assessment." ”

"Why don't you see the Moonlight Knight and the Black-robed Mage Test?"

"Do you know that if you want to become a Moon Knight or a Black-robed Mage, you must be the best of those talents, and you must be a battle-hardened and successful person before the Grand Overseer and the Heavenly Wrath Mage can test it for themselves at a certain date. It is said that the test is extremely rigorous, and it is necessary to challenge a current Moon Knight and a black-robed mage respectively, and at least one or two battles will be won before they can be promoted. ”

"I see, it seems that if you want to become a Moon Knight, you really have to go a long way to go in penance. ”

After speaking, Luo Yin sighed, and glanced at the majestic few people on the test table, and couldn't help but show a little envy and admiration. The people on the stage are all one in a thousand, and they are all LinkedIn members of the Jialan family.

"Good and dignified, why do you sigh? At this moment, the test test begins, and the masters of all walks of life show their skills, and the eighteen kinds of martial arts are undoubtedly revealed, how wonderful and beautiful, don't you feel excited?"

"Alas, this is a spectator, of course, and it is pleasant and enjoyable, but it is only a temporary pleasure. Luo Yin shook his head and said, "And all I want is to become a figure like the Moon Knight." If one day I can be among them like this, my father will be very proud of me, and I will be able to keep my fishing village safe. With that, Luo Yin sighed to himself.

"Wow, I can't see that you have such great ambitions, I believe you can, when you are beautiful, don't look down on my old friend!"

Hearing this, Luo Yin smiled helplessly, where did he want to be a beautiful person, but the murder scene on the beach that night often appeared in front of his eyes, and the fear of that night was as if he was at the scene even if he recalled it at this moment, so he wanted to become a first-class master, so that he could protect his loved ones when disaster came. At this moment, he thought of Luoshui Han, Yu Bao'er and Granny Lu, and Liu Qin'er......

At this time, Master Heavenly Fury walked to the front of the stage and said loudly in front of everyone: "Before the test begins, the old man also has a few rules to be clearly stated, one is that the skills are mainly based on competition, and you must go all out, each person only has one chance, if you fail, you will come back after two years of penance." Second, you can't fight for your life or kill the killer...... Third, if you have the ability to be confident, you don't have to be naturalized for one year to apply for the exam. ”

As soon as the last words of the Heavenly Fury Mage were finished, they caused a quiet discussion from the audience. Everyone is puzzled - in the past, those who dared to apply for the second-class examination for two or three years of naturalization are already amazing, but now those who have been naturalized for less than a year have not yet been qualified to receive training, and have not even enlightened the formal practice, how can they have the ability to apply for the second-class examination?

Not only was everyone in the audience puzzled, but even the White Tiger Grand Overseer, Liu Lingkong and others on the stage couldn't help but look at the Heavenly Fury Mage who was standing with his hands behind his back with an indifferent expression, and they couldn't guess what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, and they didn't know what his intention was to do this.

However, if you heard this, she pushed Luo Yin and said, "Hey, then in this case, you also have a chance to give it a try?"

"Me?" Luo Yin shook his head, "I've only been naturalized for less than three months, and I'm just standing guard all day long. ”

And the Heavenly Fury Mage looked calm and relaxed, as if he had already calculated something, and had already guessed everyone's reaction. But he didn't explain much, just picked up a wooden mallet hanging next to the Shen test frame, and struck it on a gong with a crisp sound, indicating that the test had begun.

As soon as the gong fell, I saw two people jumping out of the black crowd and walking to the front of the superintendent test platform, one of them looked like a warlock, took the blue test mark from the shelf, and walked to the warlock assessment field on the left, while the other person was wearing leather armor, took a red test mark, and walked to the samurai assessment field on the right. Immediately, from among the examiners on the test bench, two people also walked out, one walked towards the warlock in a long sleeve and a wide robe, and the other walked towards the samurai.

The warlock jumped left and right, and used several methods one after another, although they were all resolved by the examiner one by one, but it could be seen that he was already proficient in the essence of the method, and finally the examiner defeated the warlock within three moves. The audience couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him, and when he was sighing lightly, he heard the test officer announce loudly: "The test has passed, and he will be promoted to the second-class Heavenly Gate Warlock." ”

Luo Yin was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and asked You Yiruo: "Isn't he defeated, why is he promoted?"

"I don't know, this is the first time I've witnessed such a martial arts test. You Yanruo shook his head and said.

"You don't know that this test is not just about victory or defeat. It was a warlock who was huddled around the two of them, and by looking at his blue robe with a yellow leader, he knew that he was already a first-class warlock. The man continued: "This examiner is a first-class warlock, and how can he easily lose to a mere three or five years beginner warlock, so this test examines the proficiency of the exercises and the comprehension of the enemy's routines. ”

"Oh, I see, the strange way that the warlock can be promoted, I see that he is skilled, his body is smart, and he is quite sober about the enemy, and he pays attention to coherence and complementarity between moves, if it is not for the huge gap in strength, it can be said that there are few flaws. Luo Yin suddenly realized.

As soon as Luo Yin's voice fell, on the other side, he only heard the samurai assessment field, and the test officer announced loudly: "If you fail the test, you will not be promoted." I hope to practice diligently and come back next time!"

"In that case, then tell me about it, why can't this second-class warrior?" the warlock laughed.

"Hmm..... Although this person is powerful and fierce, and his sword skills are also clear-eyed, he is rigid, reckless, and inflexible, so he has fought the examiner for five or six rounds, but each round is the same way, so it is very easy for the opponent to catch the flaw. Presumably, this is the reason why the examiner did not allow him to pass the test. ”

"Really, why didn't I understand it?" You Yiruo frowned, puzzled.

"Hehe, this is personal understanding, when the exercises are there, naturally everything can be seen through. The warlock smiled leisurely, then looked at Luo Yin again, and said: "This little brother, you can see this at a glance, you must be very skillful, dare to ask what rank of warlock and how many rank warriors are you now?"

When Luo Yin heard this, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "You are exalting me too much, I have only been in the camp for three months, and I am only a junior samurai." ”

The warlock was stunned for a moment, then carefully looked at the cloth and leather armor he was wearing, and then smiled, and said with an incomprehensible expression: "I see." With that, he looked up and continued to look at the field of assessment.

"Luoyin, you're amazing. You said from the bottom of her heart.

"When I was in a fishing village, I practiced some boxing and kicking with Uncle Lu Tieshou, and I knew a little bit about it. Luo Yin waved his hand and disagreed.

On the stage, there are people who go up one after another to apply for the test, although the martial arts are high and low, but they are all full of confidence and preparation, among which there are also some talented or profound practitioners, the fight is wonderful, exciting, attracting cheers and applause. Luo Yin was deeply attracted, and when he saw the wonderful place, he couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart and clench his fists. The crowd around the audience also watched happily and talked about it, and from time to time the crowd erupted into bursts of cheers or regrets, all of which were affected by the applicants on the stage.

This martial arts test is not lively, looking at it, the whole camp is really like a festival market, full of people, noisy and extraordinary. It is rare for several people on the test table to be so idle, and they are all relaxed and happy when they put military affairs for the time being, and from time to time because they fancy a certain candidate, they talk to each other and make comments.

In the blink of an eye, there were about 180 applicants, and only 20 or 30 passed. At this time, the sun was at the beginning, and Luo Yin couldn't help but feel a little tired, and it looked the same, so he couldn't help yawning again and again.

Seeing this, the Heavenly Rage Mage quietly turned around and whispered a few words to the White Tiger Grand Overseer. I saw the White Tiger Grand Overseer nodding frequently with a smile on his face.

At this time, the test came to an end, and at this moment, in addition to watching the excitement, everyone who had the ability or willingness to apply for the test was left with only those who hesitated and continued to wait and see. Master Heavenly Fury took advantage of this gap to get up, walked to the front of the stage, and said loudly to everyone: "In the past, the test was all taken to apply for the test, and it could only test those who studied and practiced hard, and there were many people in the audience, but they didn't know what their daily practice level was. Therefore, in the second half of this test, we changed the rules and selected those below the first class to take the stage for the test based on the roster of each battalion. If there are those who have been in the camp for many years but are still lazy in martial arts, they will be sent back to the battalions for severe punishment after the meeting. ”

After finishing the sentence, the audience exchanged heads and ears, and there were many discussions, and the atmosphere became a lot more tense. Some people who originally only reported waiting and seeing came were panicked for a while, for fear that they would not be able to apply for the test after being selected for the stage.

"Then I'll start with this knight's camp. With that, the Heavenly Fury Mage took the roster of the knights' camp and looked at it with concern.

His gaze stayed on Luo Yin's name, and he was about to open his mouth to name him, but he hesitated for a moment, skipped Luo Yin's name, and then named another person, "Zeng Hai Manatee, you have been in the camp for more than seven years, but you are still only a second-class heavy-armored warrior, and you should also be promoted to a first-class light-armored warrior, why don't you come up and give it a try?"

The samurai, named Zeng Hai Niu, had no choice but to reluctantly jump on the stage and accept the test. After twenty rounds of encouragement, Zeng Hainiu still lost the battle and lost to the examiner in front of him, who was a first-class lightly armored samurai.

The Heavenly Fury Mage couldn't help but shake his head a little disappointed, and said, "After you go back, you have thought about it behind closed doors, why is your progress so slow, if you practice weekdays but are limited by qualifications, and then so, it is better to return to your hometown as soon as possible, don't miss the rest of your life." ”

Everyone in the audience was quiet, everyone secretly compared themselves, asked themselves, and at the same time was panicked, for fear that the next person to come to the stage would be themselves.

Only the one who was hidden, innocently looking around, looked like he didn't care about himself.

"Next, Fall! Come up and give it a try!"

Hearing the sudden shouting of the Heavenly Fury Mage, Luo Yin was stunned for a moment, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

"What are you still stunned about, come to the stage quickly. The Heavenly Fury Mage said with a pretended anger.

Luo Yin couldn't, so he had to shrug his shoulders towards You Yiruo, and then reluctantly picked up the crowd and walked onto the assessment field. When passing by the superintendent test platform, Zhang Musha, Liu Lingkong and others sitting behind him couldn't help but look at Luo Yin, both of them recognized Luo Yin, and also knew that he had only been in the camp for three months and had not yet been trained, so he wondered why Master Heavenly Fury named him to come to the stage.

"Luoyin, why don't you test the second-class heavy armor samurai first. The Heavenly Fury Mage said.

“...... Good. Luo Yin said in a low voice.

"That, Zeng Hainiu, don't go, come and test with Luoyin. You are also a second-class samurai for many years, and those who have been on the battlefield can't fight first-class samurai, and they will never lose to a first-class hairy boy. The Heavenly Fury Mage looked around, and suddenly shouted out to Zeng Hainiu, who had just stepped down and was depressed, and provoked him.

That Zeng Manatee was frustrated, and this time he was called to be a test examiner, so he thought that he had nowhere to vent his resentment, and he just beat this nameless boy called Luo Yin all over the ground to find his teeth and spread his anger. Then he jumped onto the stage and opened his posture to face Luoyin. If you can't beat a first-class lightly armored samurai, can't you still clean up the little naturalized samurai?" he said in his heart.

But it was said that Luo Yin only learned some self-defense techniques with Lu Tieshou in the fishing village, although it was practical, but there was no trick or style, so he stood straight in the center of the stage, staring at Zeng Manatee.

There was a burst of ridicule from the audience: "This kid can't even start his hand, how can he beat it!"

When the manatee saw Luoyin's posture, he immediately didn't take him seriously, and immediately kicked his legs, and waved his fists and flew towards Luoyin, but he didn't want to pounce upside down. It turned out that Luo Yin and Lu Tieshou learned some hand-to-hand grasping and self-defense techniques, and their eyes kept staring at each other's fists, until Zeng Manatee pounced in front of him, Luo Yin waited for the opportunity to move, one sideways to dodge, and then hooked the Zeng Manatee with his foot, hooking the Zeng Manatee into a dog to gnaw mud. immediately caused the audience to burst into laughter.

Hearing the laughter, Zeng Manatee's face was red, and he felt humiliated, so he turned over and swept his legs in the air, only forcing Yin to fall into his chest. Luo Yin hurriedly crossed his arms in front of his chest to block, but he couldn't match the opponent's strong strength, and retreated more than ten steps back. The two then fought together, the Zeng Manatee fought fiercely, but this Luo Yin also hid for seconds, fighting for thirty rounds in a row, although Zeng Manatee seemed to have the upper hand, but there was no substantive victory.

After more than ten rounds, the manatee fought too hard, and was already a little out of breath and slowed down. Seeing the opportunity, Luo Yin made a very clean close grab, twisted Zeng Manatee's right arm behind him, and then pulled it hard, pulling Zeng Manatee to his side, exposing his chest in front, and then Luo Yin made a riveting elbow blow to Zeng Manatee's chest, beating him to a short breath for a while, and he didn't slow down for a while. Luo Yin took advantage of the victory to pursue, rushed forward in one step, and raised his foot to make a gesture to kick out.

"Stop, stop, don't fight, I'll admit defeat!" Zeng Hainiu clutched his chest, half-knelt on the ground, and suddenly stretched out his palm and raised it high.

Shocked, Luo Yin had no choice but to turn over with a swallow and retract his body, and then he retracted his feet and stood still half a step in front of Zeng Manatee. The audience immediately applauded, and they were all amazed by Luoyin's neat figure.

Zhang Musha and the others on the test bench couldn't help but light up, with a little surprise and a little relief, looking at Luoyin.

Luo Yin had already won, and he was about to turn around and step down, but unexpectedly, the Heavenly Fury Mage stopped him again and said, "Fall Yin and slow!"

"Huh?" Luo Yin looked at the Heavenly Fury Mage with some confusion.

"Just now, I saw that you made a good hand, and your strength and body skills are actually not inferior to the second-class warriors of our battalion. Why don't you try again and compete with a first-class samurai?" said the Heavenly Fury Mage.

"This ...... I'm afraid not......" Luo Yin said with some fear.

"How do you know if you don't try?" said the Heavenly Fury Mage.

With that, the Heavenly Fury Mage waved his hand and assigned the tester who had just been tested with Zeng Manatee to step forward.

Zhang Musha had already understood that this Heavenly Fury Mage had made it clear that he was going to test and test this retreat, and he intended to probe his depths.
