Chapter 39 Outer Court Assessment

Heavenly Spirit Academy

In the early morning, just after a drizzle, all living plants are growing vigorously, sucking this wonderful rain. The soft sunlight was pouring down, and the air smelled of dew.

"Qin Yubin, get up so early?" On the playground, Qin Yubin was exercising in the morning. Several classmates passed by and greeted him.

"Well, you too. Qin Yubin waved his hand at them.

"Are you sure of today's outer court assessment?"

"I can't say, just do my best. Qin Yubin smiled slightly, the warm breeze brushed his brows, and there was some longing in his eyes.

It's been almost a year since he came to the Heavenly Spirit Academy. In the past year, Qin Yubin has been "devastated" by Twilight every day, and his training methods have become more and more bizarre, refreshing Qin Yubin's tolerance limit again and again.

However, I have to say that under great pressure, Qin Yubin's growth is also very rapid. Over the course of a year, his strength has taken a big leap.

And Qin Yubin's performance in training greatly surprised Twilight. His physical strength, spiritual control, reflexes, strength, speed, as well as mental quality and coping strategies are all remarkable.

Don't forget, while being trained by the Twilight Owl, Falling Dust is also constantly tempering him.

A year later, the day of the outer courtyard assessment has arrived. At the end of each year, the outer courtyard will arrange an assessment, and those who pass the assessment can be promoted to the inner courtyard, and those who fail the assessment will stay in the outer courtyard to continue their studies. If you fail the assessment three times in a row, you will be discouraged by the academy. The rules of the assessment are simple, the test taker challenges an inner courtyard student, a stick of incense time. In the battle, you don't necessarily need to defeat the opponent, the most important thing is to show your strength, there will be judges and teachers to watch the whole process, and finally decide the result of the assessment.

In previous assessments, it is not that even if the challenge is successful, if it loses, it will not necessarily fail, because the opponent is strong or weak, and how well it plays, are all uncertain factors. It is your overall performance that determines the success of the assessment. And the place of the assessment is in the arena.

......

arena

"Boom-" With a loud bang, a ball-like round figure flew out a long distance, smashed on the ground and bounced a few times, making it unbearable to look at.

On the stage, Xi Yue stretched her waist and said a little boringly: "It's really boring, it's not fun at all." ”

This challenger was powerless under Xi Yue's onslaught. A stick of incense had just burned less than halfway before he was already unconscious.

"Failed the assessment and sent him to the infirmary. The judge's face was expressionless: "Next, Qin Yubin of the outer courtyard challenges Xiao Ming of the inner courtyard." ”

Hearing his name, Qin Yubin moved his muscles and walked into the arena calmly. Xi Yue was about to end the game, and when she passed by Qin Yubin, she patted him on the shoulder and whispered in his ear: "Be careful of his knife." ”

"Don't worry, no problem. Qin Yubin smiled confidently, walked to the stage, and stood still.

Opposite him, there stood a tall and thin man, with a long knife, only standing quietly, without the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power, and he did not show any mountains and waters.

Qin Yubin smiled at him in a friendly manner, and the man nodded politely.

"Hey, isn't that Xiyue's flower protector? His opponent is the ghost knife Xiao Ming?"

"Isn't it, guess which of them wins?"

"Do you still need to ask, is the name of the ghost knife a joke?"

The audience was full of discussions.

Qin Yubin put his hand on the hilt of the Shen Yin Sword, squinting his eyes, observing his opponent's every move. Xiao Ming stood with a knife in his shoulder, his expression was flat, and he looked very relaxed.

"The challenge begins!" In the audience, a stick of incense was lit.

At the same time as the words fell, two cold lights flashed, and with the crisp sound of metal colliding, Qin Yubin and Xiao Ming had already switched places.

Before everyone could see what was happening, a spark had already sparked between the swords and swords.

Qin Yubin's face became solemn, and Xiao Ming's eyes also showed surprise, this collision just now made both of them realize that the strength of the other party should not be underestimated.

"Bang-bang-" There were several more sonorous sounds, and the swords flew and were dazzling.

The moves of the two became more and more aggressive, more and more rapid. Finally, Xiao Ming grabbed Qin Yubin's flaw and flew away with a sword. Qin Yubin's reaction was not unpleasant, and when Xiao Ming failed to restrain his strength, he hit him in the wrist with a whip leg and kicked the knife in his hand out.

The two weapons were taken out of their hands almost at the same time, and they fought hand-to-hand, which was exactly what Qin Yubin wanted. With the momentum of thunder, he punched with a ferocious punch, hitting Xiao Ming in the chest. Xiao Ming immediately turned sideways and wanted to unload his strength, but Qin Yubin's punch was too domineering, and the strength could not be unloaded, Xiao Ming took a few steps back to stabilize his body, and he didn't look very comfortable.

"Bah!" At the same time, the sound of weapons smashing on the ground sounded. Qin Yubin was about to pursue, and was suddenly startled: both weapons flew out, why was there only the sound of one hitting the ground? He realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly moved away, and a long knife almost slashed against his ribs.

Qin Yubin broke out in a cold sweat.

"Good skills!" Xiao Ming said approvingly. His talent is: Edgeworth. This knife is almost connected to his spiritual source, and can move with his mind. The knife technique is flexible and ghostly, and it can often take the enemy by surprise. The name of the ghost knife comes from this.

The long knife slashed through the air in an arc and slashed with sharp killing intent. A cold glow flashed through Qin Yubin's pupils, and his figure suddenly became illusory.

He easily dodged the attack of the long knife, flashed to the side of the Shen Yin sword with a sliding step, picked the sword into his hand with his toes, and threw the sword at Xiao Ming without the slightest pause. The whole process was done in one go, and it was unimaginably fast.

Shen Yinjian stabbed at Xiao Ming in a concise and clear straight line, this attack was not difficult to dodge, Xiao Ming leaned slightly, avoiding the path pointed by the sword blade, and at the same time controlling his long knife to find Qin Yubin again.

Suddenly, Xiao Ming's brain was dizzy, and the connection with the long knife was cut off at once. At this moment, his entire body seemed to lose its strength, like a machine with no electricity, and it stopped running.

Spiritual impact! Qin Yubin was waiting for this time. Xiao Ming had to pay attention to dodging the Shen Yin Sword on the one hand, and on the other hand, he had to be distracted to control the long knife, and he was dual-minded, which was originally a test of spiritual power, and at this moment, he naturally couldn't bear another spiritual impact.

However, Xiao Ming's foundation is really good, and in just one second, he woke up from his dizziness. However, this second was enough to decide whether to win or lose, and the two ice blades were already pressed against his temple.

Xiao Ming was stunned, relieved, sighed, and said convincingly: "I lost." ”

Qin Yubin smiled slightly, put away the ice blade, picked up the long knife on the ground, and handed it to Xiao Ming: "I agreed, thank you senior." ”

A stick of incense is only burning a third at the moment.

Although the time is short, the duel between the two is fierce. The dance of knives and swords, like an elegant waltz, is a feast for the eyes.

"Qin Yubin of the outer courtyard, the assessment is successful!"
