Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Looming Threat

Five mountains and colorful lotus. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

As soon as Su Zhan came here, the first thing he saw was not the five colorful lotuses, but a large number of people.

"Are the more than thirty silver-hilted sword cultivators in Fifth Mountain?"

Su Zhan felt a little strange.

The fifth mountain defines the level of comprehension as "excellent".

These silver-hilted sword cultivators in front of them should have all passed through the fifth mountain and were in the sixth mountain.

After all, this was the last chance for a silver-handled sword cultivator to enter Sword Mountain, and it was impossible to waste time on the Fifth Mountain.

Not only that, if there were only a few silver-hilted sword cultivators staying in the fifth mountain, it would be reasonable, but if more than thirty and close to forty silver-handled sword cultivators stayed here, something would definitely be strange!

"Could it be that the difficulty of the Colorful Lotus has increased?"

Su Zhan guessed.

He couldn't have imagined that these thirty or nearly forty silver-handled sword cultivators were all staying here because of him alone!

"Rather than wasting precious time in fruitless speculation, it is better to comprehend the fifth mountain. ”

Su Zhan walked up to the colorful lotus, and according to the usual practice, began to look carefully up and down, left and right.

And wandering around, all the silver-handled sword cultivators who had always been paying attention to Su Zhan, when Su Zhan's figure appeared on the fifth mountain, they began to inadvertently reveal a fighting posture.

Not only the silver-handled sword cultivators, but also the sword cultivators who were trapped in the fifth mountain and really wanted to cultivate, were also paying attention to Ye Jia.

The reason why they paid attention to Ye Jia was not because of the assassination, but because Ye Jia was a new student in the Iron Handle Realm, how long had it been, and it hadn't been an hour yet, and he had come to the Fifth Mountain?

What a terrifying comprehension speed?!

"It's inexplicable that so many people with silver handles gather here......"

"Now that such a new man with an iron handle has jumped out so quickly, and he has risen to the fifth mountain ......"

"What is going on in this Sword Mountain Trial?"

These sword cultivators couldn't figure it out.

It's so weird.

However, the silver-handled sword cultivators present seemed to be comprehending the Colorful Lotus, but they were actually talking to each other in a low voice.

"You don't have to deliberately get close to Su Zhan, just keep your position. ”

"Keep an eye out for people who are close to Su Zhan, and once you find an unfamiliar face, stop it immediately!"

"Always be on the lookout, don't take it lightly!"

"I don't know the exact number of the other party, so be careful!"

“......”

In order to protect Su Zhan, the Battle Academy deliberately selected 17 people with clear backgrounds and distinct backgrounds among the many silver-handled sword cultivators to form a "phase protection team", which was specially responsible for protecting Su Zhan and preventing the enemy from succeeding in this assassination operation.

From the information they obtained, the only number they could know was the list of 7 enemy countries, and the actual number was not known.

They also couldn't take the initiative to tell Su Zhan that they were sent to protect him.

Because in this way, Su Zhan is likely to be afraid and unable to comprehend with peace of mind, which will lead to the failure of the Sword Mountain trial.

Su Zhan came to participate in the Sword Mountain Trial, which in itself was taking a risk to improve his comprehension.

If it fails, it is tantamount to wasting a major opportunity, which will cause a heavy blow to Su Zhan's future.

From this, it can be seen that the tasks of these sword cultivators who are responsible for protecting Su Zhan are multiplied...... Neither could he inform Su Zhan that he was in danger, nor did he know the specific number of enemies, so he could only take one step at a time and try his best to ensure that the task could be completed smoothly.

And they didn't know that in addition to their 17 people at the scene, the remaining 20 sword cultivators were all part of the assassination of Su Zhan!

However, they did not know the number of enemy countries, and the enemy assassination team did not know their numbers.

Both sides are speculating and suspicious of each other.

"Su Zhan has appeared, and the operation is finally ready!"

"At present, the number of people identified is 9, and the number of suspects is 3, a total of 12 people...... We have an absolute advantage in numbers!"

"Don't take it lightly, once you make a move, all of us will be exposed, be sure to kill Su Zhan with one blow!"

"The bait is ready and about to be released!"

"Watch, focus on the man with the silver handle!"

“......”

The enemy assassination team was also operating against Su Zhan at this time.

According to the plan, they needed to determine the number of people protecting Su Zhan first, so they had to release "bait" to lure the silver-handled sword cultivators who protected Su Zhan to reveal their purpose, so as to assassinate Su Zhan in a targeted manner.

This is an operation that must be successful, and any small mistake can lead to a failure!

"Brothers, go, remember, step by step closer to Su Zhan...... This scene must be performed well!"

The rugged man took a deep breath, his eyes flashing.

The group nodded, then slowly stood up, and the natal sword was inadvertently pulled out of their palms.

They had a distance from the multicolored lotus, which was deliberately designed by Sha Yilu.

The longer the road, the more people will pay attention to them.

In this way, the people of the assassination team can also observe more information and perceive how many people are protecting Su Zhan!

Almost at the moment when they took a step in the direction of Su Zhan, there were already 9 silver-handled sword cultivators in the protection group who looked at the rugged man and the others, with a look of vigilance in their eyes.

"9, the faces have been noted, the degree of certainty, 100%!"

The group pretended to approach the direction of the colorful lotus unconsciously, as if to look at the colorful lotus twice, so that they could feel it more appropriately, and their steps couldn't help but speed up.

All of a sudden, they entered the first protective circle of the phase protection team.

The four of them were staring at them at the time, their eyes falling on the natal sword in their hands.

"4, the faces have been noted, the degree of certainty, 100%!"

However, the people in the phase protection team were not impulsive.

They know that they are watching the enemy, and that the enemy is watching them.

Whoever has the information first will have the first opportunity.

In this way, make a targeted plan so that the other party has nothing to do.

The rugged man and the others did not stop, and continued to approach in the direction of Su Zhan.

As they walked, the natal sword in their hands was almost completely exposed, and the hilt of the sword was grasped in their hands.

"1, the face has been noted, the degree of certainty, 100%!"

"2, the faces have been noted, the degree of certainty, 50%!"

Completely certain, the degree is 100%.

If it's not entirely certain, it's 50 per cent.

Don't look at it as only 50%, but it's all in the consideration of the enemy country's assassination team, and the plan will also design the suspected 50% of the people.

As a result, 16 of the 17 members of the phase protection team have been exposed.

There was only one person left, and he had not yet been discovered.

The rugged man and the others walked faster and faster, and finally, they came to Su Zhan's back.

Seeing this, almost all of the eyes of the people in the protection team focused on the rugged man and the others.

They stared at the rugged man and the others, paying attention to their every move, if the rugged man really wanted to make a move, these silver-handled sword cultivators would definitely kill them directly at the moment of their move!
