Chapter 260: Inner Door Assessment
Early the next morning, Feng Yi, who had been cultivating all night, slowly got up from the bed in the cabin. After tidying up his appearance a little, he went out directly and walked towards the assessment place of the inner disciples.
Today is the day of the Inner Sect Disciple Assessment in Qingxuanzong in March, and all the outer disciples who sign up for this assessment must arrive at the assessment venue before the hour, otherwise, if they miss the hour, they will have to wait for another three months.
At the door of the assessment place, two disciples on duty were guarding on both sides, and when they saw Feng Yi coming here from a distance, the disciple on the left couldn't help but say: "This should be the thirty-second, it seems that after this inner door assessment, the number of inner disciples will increase a lot." ”
"Hehe, this is not necessarily, I have never seen this person in front of me, it must be a new disciple who only entered the sect three months ago, and he was promoted to the transcendent realm in just three months, nine times out of ten he took pills, do you think such a disciple can pass the assessment later?"
"Also, although the pill can help a martial artist quickly improve his cultivation, the side effects are not small, and I am afraid that there is no possibility of improvement within a year and a half......
While the two disciples were talking, Feng Wei walked quickly to the door, took out an assessment sign that was distributed during the registration yesterday and handed it over: "I'm here to conduct the inner disciple assessment." ”
The disciple on the left took the sign casually and glanced at it, and then nodded lazily: "Go in, I wish you a smooth assessment!"
Feng Wei didn't care, and stepped in.
The assessment site is a place similar to the ancient Colosseum, with a depression in the center of the field, like a basin, and at the rock wall at its edge, there are nine black holes of four or five zhang in size, which are closed by iron gates outside.
Seeing such a venue, and then feeling the murderous aura faintly coming from the nine black holes, Feng Yi immediately guessed the content of this inner door assessment. There is no doubt that it is to fight monsters.
Whether it is in the Qingxuan Sect or other sects, if you want to become an inner disciple, you must undergo an assessment. Martial arts cultivation to reach the transcendent realm is only the first step, after all, there is a big difference between cultivating to the transcendent realm and using pills to ascend to the transcendent realm, and the combat effectiveness cannot be compared, in order to prevent this from happening, and in order to ensure the elitism of the inner disciples, the sect has to set up various assessments to ensure that there are no indiscriminate people.
And a fight with demon beasts is undoubtedly a good way to test the true combat effectiveness of the disciples under his disciples. In the case of the same level, the combat power of demon beasts is generally stronger than that of human warriors, and only those disciples with higher talent have the ability to independently defeat a demon beast of the same level, and it is precisely such a disciple that Qingxuanzong needs.
After a brief moment, Feng Yi turned his gaze to a platform on the side of the venue, where a group of other disciples who participated in the assessment were gathered, and the number was about thirty. Compared with the huge assessment venue, the number of more than 30 people is undoubtedly very small. However, as far as Feng Wei knows, such a number of people is already relatively large compared to the past, and in the past, the number of people who participated in the inner disciple assessment each time was basically around twenty.
Among the disciples who participated in the assessment, two people attracted the attention of Feng Yi. One of them is Han Fei, who explored the ancient tomb of the Sword Venerable with him a few days ago, Han Fei will participate in this inner door assessment, it is not surprising that the seal is reversed, before obtaining the Sword Venerable inheritance, the other party's strength has far exceeded the level of the inner disciple, and even more powerful than the senior sister Zhao who made his heart move, and now, after obtaining the Dao Venerable inheritance, the other party's strength is naturally increasing by leaps and bounds. For Han Fei, an inner door assessment is as simple as eating and drinking, and there is no pressure.
As for the other person, it was Zhao Qing, a genius of Jinguang City who had a confrontation with Han Fei when their new disciples first came to Qingxuan Sect. At the beginning, because of the festival between the Xuanhai City branch manager and the Jinguang City branch manager, Han Fei and Zhao Qing had a fight, and as a result, in just two moves, Zhao Qing was defeated by Han Fei's fist, which can be regarded as a loss of face. Unexpectedly, three months later, Zhao Qing was also promoted to the transcendent realm and participated in the assessment of the inner disciples.
Except for Feng Yi and Han Fei, he can be regarded as the first person in their group of new disciples.
At this time, Zhao Qingzheng kept scanning Han Fei with an obviously hostile gaze, obviously, he had been haunted by the fiasco last time. And although Han Fei sensed Zhao Qing's hostility, he didn't react, just stood aside silently, looking at his nose and nose, his nose and his heart, and the whole person seemed to be wandering out of the world, completely treating Zhao Qing as air. It wasn't until Feng Wei slowly approached that he suddenly cast his gaze as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Looking at the Feng Wei who was pacing, Han Fei's eyes narrowed slightly, and an imperceptible light flashed in his eyes, obviously sensing the different changes between Feng Wei and before, and immediately, he nodded lightly, which was regarded as a greeting. Similarly, Feng Yi also nodded at him, walked up to him, and stood with his hands in his hands.
The relationship between the two is more delicate, let's say it's a friend, it's not, it's a stranger, and the two sides have had an unusual intersection and cooperation, and the cooperation is quite pleasant. If you have to say it, the two should be roughly the kind of rivals who cherish each other. However, both of them are the kind of people who are silent and not good at words, so even if they stand together, they don't have the slightest intention to communicate with each other, they are like puppets, standing there quietly, without saying a word.
Time passed slowly, and it was getting closer and closer to the time when the assessment officially began, and during this period, two more outer disciples who participated in the assessment arrived before and after.
After a while, when the sun rose overhead, the examiner in charge of the assessment finally arrived late. The examiner was none other than the Zhou Protector who led the new disciples of the Rebellion into Qingcheng when he first entered.
Standing at the front of the crowd, Zhou Protector looked at everyone slightly, and when he saw Feng Yi, Han Fei and Zhao Qing, Zhou Protector's gaze paused obviously, but he quickly skipped it silently.
"Ahem!"
Coughing lightly, Zhou Protector said indifferently: "Seeing this venue, presumably you and others should also guess the content of the assessment for the promotion of inner disciples this time, that's right, it is to fight and kill demon beasts, the rules are very simple, later, each of you will fight with a demon beast in a one-on-one form, and those who defeat the demon beast can be directly promoted to inner disciples, and those who lose will have to practice for another three months before participating in the assessment, what questions do you have to wait?"
"May I ask Protector Zhou, I don't know what level of demon beast we are fighting with?" an assessment disciple asked.
"Most of them are low-level and low-level demon beasts, however, there will occasionally be a few low-level and middle-level demon beasts, as for what level of demon beasts you are facing at that time, it depends on your own luck, you know, many times luck is also part of strength. Zhou Protector said lightly.
"Low-level and mid-level demon beasts?"
Hearing Zhou Protector's words, the disciple who spoke out gasped. Not only him, but many of the assessment disciples around him also looked at each other. A low-level mid-level demon beast is much more difficult to deal with than an ordinary transcendent mid-stage martial artist, and most of the disciples present to participate in the assessment are just martial artists in the transcendent early stage realm, and once they encounter it, there is absolutely no possibility of winning by half a point.
However, Rao was like this, and the people did not have the slightest thought of dissatisfaction or protest. As Zhou Protector said, luck is also a part of strength, and no matter how talented a martial artist is, it is difficult to achieve anything too high if he is unlucky. Moreover, Protector Zhou had already made it clear that most of them were low-level low-level demon beasts, and there were only a few low-level middle-level demon beasts, if they really met a low-level middle-level demon beast so coincidentally, then they could only consider themselves unlucky.
"That's it!"
Zhou Protector waved his hand a little impatiently: "Without further ado, the assessment starts now, which of you will go first?"
"Qi Qi Zhou Protector, I am willing to be the first to take the assessment!"
As soon as Protector Zhou's voice fell, a figure immediately stood up, it was Zhao Qing, one of the only three new disciples.
"Good!"
Zhou Protector nodded lightly: "There are nine beast caves below, you can choose one!"
"Yes!"
Zhao Qing took a deep breath, and immediately jumped forward, falling into the first beast cave. Each beast cave is isolated by a gate, and you can't see the situation inside in advance, let alone judge the strength of the demon beast inside.
"Are you ready?" asked Zhou Protector as he walked over to the office.
Zhao Qing nodded.
Titicaca!
In the next second, the mechanism was activated, and the iron gate at the entrance of the cave slowly rose up, revealing the inside of the black hole little by little.
Whew!
Before the iron gate could be fully opened, a huge black shadow pounced out of it, sweeping towards Zhao Qing with a murderous aura.
"Ice and Fire Slash!"
Zhao Qing was not flustered, quickly pulled out the long sword from his waist, and landed on the black shadow with a sword.
Sonorous!
The sparks splashed around, and the black shadow showed its true body, it was a wolf-shaped demon beast the size of a calf, with black hair all over its body, red and green eyes, and a huge wolf snout that was slightly bared, revealing its hideous canine teeth, at this time it was crawling on all fours ten zhang away, and its murderous gaze was only locked on Zhao Qing, ready to attack at any time.
"Wind Wolf!"
Seeing the true body of this demon beast, Zhao Qing breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Don't look at him before, he has always looked calm and breezy, but he is still quite nervous in his heart, for fear that he will be unlucky and meet a low-level mid-level demon beast at the beginning. With his strength, if he was really unlucky against a low-level mid-level demon beast, he would have no chance of winning. Fortunately, his worries were unnecessary, the wind wolf in front of him was just a low-level low-level demon beast, if there was no accident, there should be no problem in promoting the inner disciple......
