Time flies, and two months have passed in a blink of an eye. Although I don't know how the One Yuan Instrument Sect and the Demon Lotus Sect negotiated, but since then, the Demon Lotus Sect has been completely dormant and has not invaded again.

However, these things had nothing to do with the large number of outer disciples, and there was another, more important matter in front of them. That is the assessment of the disciples of the Ascending Furnace.

Although there is no restriction on registration, generally a new beginner disciple like Cheng Daonan will not participate, because the ascension furnace assessment means that an ordinary martial artist is promoted to a forging master, and it is impossible to pass the assessment just by relying on three months of study.

Not only the outer disciples attach importance to the assessment of the furnace, but also Zhu Changqing is very concerned, this is the first assessment he has presided over since he took office, and he will naturally take it to heart.

Sitting on a high platform, dressed in brocade robes, surrounded by many deacons, Zhu Changqing looked a little high-spirited. Looking at the outer disciples below with a nervous look on their faces, a feeling of being high and dominating everything slowly rose in his heart, is this what power tastes like?

Under the high platform, there is a large open space, on which hundreds of stoves are placed, and there are nearly two hundred people who come to participate in the furnace assessment, but less than ten people are really admitted, which is the cruelty of competition. No matter how many disciples are likely to stay in the outer gate for decades, they may not have the opportunity to enter the inner gate.

"The first test, the first one, starts now. A deacon dressed in black stepped out and announced loudly. The entire clearing was silent, and all the disciples had serious faces.

Soon, dozens of people came up with baskets of ore and placed them in front of everyone one by one. As a forger. Eyesight is a crucial level, and the first test is to test everyone's ability to identify ores.

In every basket. There are hundreds of ores in place, many of which look extremely similar. It is undoubtedly extremely difficult to distinguish these hundreds of ores.

Cheng Daonan picked up a piece of ore, which was engraved with a numbered "one" with a sharp object. Cheng Daonan picked up the pen and wrote three words "gloomy iron" on the white paper on the desk.

Gloomy iron is relatively common, and many disciples recognize it at a glance. They secretly rejoiced in their hearts, it seems that the topic this time is not too difficult, and there is a great hope of becoming a disciple of the Ascending Furnace.

"Isn't this still gloomy iron!" a disciple shouted out in a low voice, and the ore numbered "Er" was also pitch black, faintly emitting a chill in his hand. It's also a characteristic of gloomy iron.

When he said this, everyone also discovered this. However, in order to confuse the public, the same ore is occasionally numbered differently.

Cheng Daonan put down the No. 2 ore and wrote the words "Xingchen Gold" on the paper. The appearance of gloomy iron is very similar to that of Xingchen Gold, but in the very subtle parts of Xingchen Gold, you can see a little bit of gold, like the stars in the night sky.

Because his spirit is very strong, it is not at all comparable to these outer disciples. So he writes very fast. Just the work of tea, half of the ore was identified.

"Elder, you see, that disciple is good. It is estimated that it is also a good seedling. At Zhu Changqing's side, a deacon flatteringly pointed to Cheng Daonan and said. Sitting on a high platform, you can see the situation below. Cheng Daonan's speed was seen by them.

"At such a young age, so impetuous. It can't be a big deal. Zhu Changqing glanced at Cheng Daonan, and it turned out to be Chen Nan, who was unrelated to Han Duxue. I couldn't help but sneer.

The deacon couldn't help but pause, and then understood the elder's thoughts. "Yes, this person is so unstable that he will inevitably cause a big disaster for the door in the future, and in my opinion, he will never be able to enter the inner door. ”

"Hahaha. Zhu Changqing laughed loudly, and tapped lightly on the table with one hand, deciding a person's fate with a single word, which was really a very happy thing.

"The time has come. After a stick of incense, the black-clothed deacon stepped forward, and no one was allowed to write again. Suddenly, his eyes swept and he noticed a disciple who was still writing.

"You, disqualified. He let out a loud shout, and then two men came over and dragged him out. "No, I don't dare anymore, this is my first time, deacon, let me go. The disciple let out a howl like killing a pig, he had already participated in seven or eight assessments, and he had been stumbling for several years, how could he easily let go of this opportunity.

However, the five fingers of those two people were like iron hooks, so that this disciple could not resist at all. Foul play in the furnace assessment is a very serious matter, and in the next three years, you will not be allowed to participate in the assessment.

Many outer disciples were awe-inspiring in their hearts, and they put away the careful thoughts in their hearts, not daring to make any moves. Soon, some people put away the paper in front of them and handed it to the high platform for the elders and deacons to review.

The taste of waiting is very difficult, especially this fateful waiting. Except for Cheng Daonan, everyone else looked like they were sitting still.

"This Chen Nan really has some ability, but he only made one mistake, it's a pity. Zhu Changqing took a piece of white paper and drew a cross with a red pen on the "Xingchen Gold".

This time, the title is from him, the ore numbered "two" is clearly gloomy iron, although Xingchen gold is very similar to gloomy iron, but Xingchen gold is a high-quality material, relatively rare, which sect will be used to assess outer disciples.

"He is called clever, but he is mistaken by cleverness. One of the deacons also saw this and said with a smile.

Zhu Changqing laughed, stopped talking, put down the paper in his hand, and replaced it with one. Cheng Dao Nan is just a small role for him, suppressing him, just a casual word, it's not worth taking it to heart at all.

Just when everyone was already anxious to the extreme, all the ratings had come out. Looking at the thick stack of paper in the hands of the black-clothed deacon, their hearts suddenly rose again.

"Li Jike, first class, wrong five. The deacon glanced at the nervous crowd and read it slowly. As soon as his words fell, a hint of joy appeared in the eyes of the honest-looking young man in the audience.

"Zhang Hu, first-class, wrong three. The deacon continued, Zhang Hu was the young man with a face full of meat, and when he heard this, the meat on his face kept shaking, obviously extremely excited.

......

In the first assessment, as long as you are above the second grade, you can participate in the next level of assessment. Many of those who have reached the second class are secretly happy, while those below the second class are depressed, which means that they will have to stay up for another year at the outer gate.
