Chapter Seventy-Six: Assessment?
Qingteng Mountain, a world cultural heritage, is a famous Taoist holy place. The front mountain is a variety of tourist attractions and Taoist temples, and the back mountain is where Master Zhou lived.
The scorching sun was scorching, and there were more than a dozen young men and women standing straight on a clearing, each standing in a military posture and heroic. Even if he was sweating, he did not have the slightest decline, let alone the slightest dissatisfaction, and his attitude was respectful.
Next to the fence wall, there were several middle-aged men standing.
"See, my son is standing perfectly, and he doesn't sweat much, and one of the three who passed the assessment must be my son. A bearded man pointed at one of the tall young men and laughed.
"Hehe, my son has a share. Another burly man laughed.
"What's the use of you selling yourself so much, seeing the young man at the front who didn't sweat a drop, the Ling family is young and young, and the second grade is in the late stage. There are also two positions apart, the girl who is as beautiful as a flower and has a cold face, Yan Xueqi, the young lady of the Yan family, is also in the late stage of the second grade. They are not much worse than the genius Cheng Xinghao, I think at least two of the three positions are theirs, and the others can only grab the other one. A rather delicate middle-aged man said.
The bearded man shouted and the burly man was originally just blindly confident, but when he heard such an analysis, his face suddenly looked a little unpleasant.
At this moment, the gate of the courtyard fence opened, and a man wearing a mask walked in slowly, and several middle-aged men who accompanied him, as well as young men and women standing in a military posture, all glanced at him, and their faces were a little strange.
"Who is this kid? Is he here for the test? Hours late, right?"
"Master Zhou hates people who are late the most, and he might as well not come. ”
"Look at him as a good swimmer, he is also a talent. ”
The masked man glanced around, his eyes fell on Lin Yi and Zhao Dong, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then walked over.
"Hey, what is this kid doing here?" Lin Yi couldn't help but stare when he saw the masked man coming over, for fear of being implicated. Although he also drank the water soaked in the inner pill given by Chen Xuan, and his injuries recovered quickly, he had not yet healed, and his face was slightly pale.
"Just ignore him. Zhao Dong frowned and said.
However, the masked man still walked straight to Lin Yi's side, and asked in a slightly low voice, "Where is Master Zhou?"
Lin Yi and Zhao Dong ignored him, as if they hadn't heard it. Seeing that everyone else looked over, they looked gloating, they all wanted to die, and Master Zhou's eldest disciple said, this is the second level of the assessment, no one is allowed to move, and if they veto, they will not pass. They've been holding out for more than an hour, and they're about to pass, but they can't be disturbed by this guy.
Lin Yi's second uncle Mu Hao and Zhao Dong's father Zhao Jianying both went treasure hunting, so they came alone, and the accompanying parents didn't know them and ignored the excitement.
"If you don't answer, I'll kick you. The masked man said that he was Chen Xuan, and Chen Xuan was a little surprised when he saw Lin Yi and Zhao Dong. He deliberately embarrassed Lin Yi, because he knew that this Master Zhou was not a good person, and it was not a good thing to worship him as a teacher. As for Zhao Dong, Chen Xuan didn't bother to care whether he lived or died.
"Big brother, why did you just find me?" Lin Yi wanted to cry.
"I want to see Master Zhou and become Master Zhou's apprentice. Chen Xuan is nonsense.
Lin Yi really wanted to say, you have been late for so long, there is no play, but it seems that this masked man does not look like a reasonable person, it is better to answer him quickly, so as not to be kicked by him, after all, this kick has to be moved, but it is about to fail the assessment, and said: "We have only seen Master Zhou's eldest disciple, and we haven't seen Master Zhou yet." ”
"Why are there only a dozen people assessed?" Chen Xuan glanced at it.
"The monk is originally one in ten thousand, and the fact that there are more than ten or twenty people can come already shows that Master Zhou is famous. Of course, the first one or two levels filtered out a few. Lin Yi said.
At this moment, the door of the front room opened, and two middle-aged men in Taoist uniforms walked out and angrily scolded Chen Xuan: "Who are you and how did you get in?"
Everyone was stunned, yes, there seemed to be guards outside to prevent tourists from breaking in by mistake, and there was a clear distinction between monks and ordinary people. This guy is so late, it stands to reason that he can't be put in.
With a squeak, the fence door opened, and two young Taoist priests with blue noses and swollen faces ran in, pointing at Chen Xuan and saying resentfully, "Senior brother, this guy knocked us out and ran in." ”
The young people and parents present were all staring at each other, this guy was too bold, didn't he dare to beat Master Zhou's disciples? Although those two were only registered disciples and Taoist children who helped take care of the Taoist temple, they could be regarded as Master Zhou's people.
"What a guts. The two middle-aged men in Taoist clothes were furious, and they wanted to step forward to clean up Chen Xuan.
"If he can defeat two gatekeepers, it means that he has some strength, so count him past the first two levels. A calm voice sounded in the room, and then an old man wearing a Taoist robe and looking like a fairy wind and bones walked out slowly.
The general of the finch tail in Chen Xuan's backpack moved excitedly for the first time, and whispered to Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan's eyes narrowed, staring straight at the old man with fairy wind bones, thinking that he was the legendary Master Zhou.
Master Zhou looked at Chen Xuan, but there was also a flash of light in his eyes, and that look was like a pervert seeing a beautiful woman without clothes.
"He seemed very excited to see me. Chen Xuan was stunned.
"How can you not be excited, I said, some cultivated goblins can see that you have auspicious qi in you, and your merits are added, and it is very beneficial to eat you. It is estimated that there are at least more than a hundred Blood Yin Pills. General Sparrowtail said.
"......" the corners of Chen Xuan's mouth twitched.
As for the others, when they heard Master Zhou say that they didn't blame Chen Xuan, and let him pass the first two assessments, they all felt very unfair, especially the two Dao boys with blue noses and swollen faces, they were very unhappy. However, Master Zhou's words were true, and they didn't dare to refute them at all.
"Okay, you have also passed the second level of assessment, take a break, and carry out the third level, the actual combat assessment. Master Zhou Kaixuan showed a deep smile.
Lin Yi, Zhao Dong and others all breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed their postures, only Ling Xiao and Yan Xueqi looked as usual.
"The third level of assessment, who will come first?" said a middle-aged man in a Taoist uniform, everyone looked at each other, and they didn't want to be the first, but the masked man stepped forward, "I'll go first." ”
Everyone thought to themselves, this guy is really kind, late, injured Dao Tong, and anxious to challenge the third level, who does he think he is?
"Do you know what the third level is? The third level is to fight with me, I will weigh your strength, don't worry, I only use one hand. The middle-aged man in Dao Yi sneered, although Master Zhou forgave Chen Xuan, but Chen Xuan injured Dao Tong after all, which made him very dissatisfied.
Ling Xiao, Yan Xueqi, Zhao Dong, Lin Yi and others, as well as the parents and others who were onlookers, all gathered their attention, this middle-aged man in Taoist clothes is the eldest disciple of Master Zhou, it is said that he is already a monk in the late stage of the third grade, and his strength is extremely strong, and they all want to see him make a move.
"You are not worthy, why don't Master Zhou come to the assessment in person?" Chen Xuan glanced at the middle-aged man in the Taoist suit, shook his head and said, everyone was stunned, and then there was an uproar.
