Chapter 309: Chapter 9

In order to assess students' perception and learning results, Bailu Academy has an assessment every three months and half a year. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Among them, the assessment once every three months is called the White Deer Festival, and the half-year one will be jointly held with Yingtian Academy and Nanyang Academy, called the "Star Picking Conference". At the Star Picking Conference, the first place winner can even get quite attractive rewards.

The White Deer Festival has a long history, and according to legend, it has a lot to do with the first president of the academy.

Legend has it that the first dean of the academy walked the world, and there was always a white deer by his side, so he was called Mr. Bailu, and after the dean passed away, this white deer was nowhere to be found. Later, someone saw it carrying an old man in white on its back, running between the mountain streams, looking so unhappy. But since then, no one has seen it again. So that's just a legend.

In order to commemorate the legend of the first dean, the March assessment of the White Deer Academy was called the White Deer Festival by the Academy.

The White Deer Festival is still two days away, but the various topics about the White Deer Festival are already very hot.

The new trainees of the first house of Luxco are very beautiful and moving. Although this teacher often speaks so frankly that people have nothing to say, whether it is the pipa or the flute, she can play a beautiful natural sound. Because she is there, the first place in Leke may be her student.

As for mathematics and etiquette, there is no need to talk about it, but the most concerned is of course the competition of technical subjects.

Because Zhou is the most martial artistic, of course, it is the students of the art department who attract the most attention.

Originally, there was no suspense in the examination of the technical subject, and everyone thought that Shen Xueshuo could become the first place. However, when the news of Li Jundu's entry into the realm of oblivion spread throughout the Jingshi, people began to feel very interested in this technical assessment. Is it Shen Xueshuo, who won the first place in the admission assessment, to win the first place for a second time, or is Li Jundu, who has become a cultivator in the Forgotten Realm, better?

Or could it be someone else?

No one thought of the other person, because that person had left the capital two months earlier. Some people say that he was recuperating from his illness, some people say that he went to a certain place to recuperate because he lost all his realm, and some people say that he was afraid of Li Jundu's challenge -- this kind of argument accounts for the vast majority.

......

The examination of the technical department lasts for five days.

Because of the need for cultivation talent, the number of disciples in the various disciplines is the smallest. However, there are a total of fifty disciples in this year's session, which is already considered to be the peak of incense compared to the situation of only twenty-six in the previous session.

The assessment venue is set up in Xuanwuping, and sixteen people are selected on the first day, and after the competition on the second day, there will be only four people left, and on the third day, after the competition, the top two will be born.

On the fifth day, the top two after a day's break will have a final battle, and the winner will be rewarded by the Academy.

In three months, the top four students will represent Bailu Academy in the Star Picking Conference, winning supreme glory for Bailu Academy.

Therefore, the assessment of technical subjects is more eye-catching than the assessment of other subjects.

The Liuyuntai in Xuanwuping was set up by the instructors with some kind of prohibition and runes, and the competition of the top four was carried out on it.

The previous competition was conducted on several stone platforms distributed in Xuanwuping. After all, time is limited, and it is impossible for students to learn and evaluate in front of teachers one by one.

Gongsun Qingyang stood on the Liuyun Platform, looking at the people standing in front of the Liuyun Platform, with some anxiety and worry between his eyebrows.

"On the first day of the competition, the test platform is divided into eight heaven and earth Xuanhuang and cosmic flood wilderness, and the gossip elephants are distributed around the Liuyuntai. The competition time on the first day is one day, a total of 48 people, three groups of competitions, and a total of three groups of competitions on each stone platform. After all the assessments of the eight stone platforms are completed, the assessment of the day is over. ”

Gongsun Qingyang looked at the empty seats of the dean and vice president and frowned slightly.

Although the current dean cannot be compared with the first dean, no one can deny his strength. His strength does not only refer to his cultivation realm, but also to his knowledge, cultivation, and fame. Some people even say that the contemporary dean is a "living myth".

As the two most important figures in Bailu Academy, they didn't show up on the same day, which surprised Gongsun Qingyang.

It wasn't just him who was surprised, most of the students were aware of the problem.

So there was a lot of discussion for a while.

Gongsun Qingyang coughed twice, and the sound reached the ears of every student, making their discussion stop.

"The next day's competition was still held on these eight stone platforms. After the top four are selected, the top two are selected on the third day. ”

"On the fifth day, the last two will compete on the Liuyuntai, and the winner will receive a reward from the Dean himself. ”

"Now, each of you is in place, I announce, the assessment, start now. ”

..............................

The student on the Hongzi platform was a little trembling, holding the sword in his hand tightly, and stepped into the ring.

Everyone could see that he was a little nervous, but few people cheered him up. Because doing so may only exacerbate his fear and nervousness, and make him lose faster.

........................

Shen Xueshuo looked into the distance with some scattered eyes, and didn't seem to take the opponent in front of her in her eyes; she seemed to be looking at Li Jundu in the distance, but she quickly withdrew her gaze.

At the same time, there was an exclamation from Hongzitai.

Soon, the crowd there gave way to a path, and Li Jundu silently walked out of the way.

Behind him, a handyman who had been waiting for him carried out a student who was lying on a stretcher without saying a word—presumably fainting.

Shen Xueshuo's opponent swallowed a mouthful of saliva silently, at this moment, he was very glad that his opponent was not Li Jundu.

However, Shen Xueshuo's gaze did not stay on Li Jundu's body for too long. She withdrew her gaze and calmly looked at the student in front of her, looking at the hint of happiness in the other party's eyes, and understood what the other party meant.

In her calm gaze, there was finally a trace of arrogance that was extremely difficult to detect.

The student drew a sword from behind his back, saluted with a sword, and said, "In Xia Leng Jianqiu, please advise." ”

"Shen Xueshuo. ”

Three words burst out of her lips, one word at a time.

The three words were like three stones, and they smashed into each other's chests again.

Leng Jianqiu's face turned pale suddenly, his body shook, and it was his sword that landed first, and then Leng Jianqiu fell to the ground.

Shen Xueshuo didn't even look at him more, turned around and left the competition platform.

....................................

The bye student's name is Du Huan, and he only entered the materialization realm a few days ago. Among the disciples of this class of arts, there are only five students in the middle realm of materialization. finally entered the realm of materialization, and he always wanted to be able to show off in front of that junior sister, but unfortunately he had a bye. If nothing else, the bye student will play in the final round. That means that if it goes well, he might be on the last day. And the opponent is not Li Jundu or Shen Xueshuo, he will lose very excitingly.

Just as he was thinking nonsense, suddenly a teacher came up to him and said something to him.

He looked at the back of the teacher leaving in a bit of a daze, and his mind was a little confused.

What did he just say? Why did someone suddenly appear to compete with me?

The name is familiar......

However, he didn't care too much about the name, for him, except for Shen Xueshuo and Li Jundu, the other students of the same year, he was not afraid.

Because among the fifty disciples of the Martial Arts, except for Li Jundu and Shen Xueshuo, there were only five students from the Materialization Middle Realm, and as for the students from the Materialization Upper Realm, there was only one person. He is confident that he will be able to make it to the top eight or even the top four.

Just when he was waiting a little bored, he was reminded that it was his turn.

Du Huan was in high spirits, but at the same time a little puzzled. If the bye is able to play, there is only one possibility. That is, one of the groups of students lost both, resulting in the forty-eight into twenty-four, and only twenty-three students were produced.

Bye to bye? The two of us were really unlucky.

He was laughing at himself when a teenager followed him into the ring at some point. The boy was bare-handed, with no talisman bag in his hand and no weapon behind his back, and he looked extremely ordinary.

Du Huan did not draw his sword from the sheath, and his cautious expression gradually became relaxed.

There was not a trace of telekinetic fluctuations on the other party's body. It may be that the other party is strong enough to restrain all the essence, or it may be that the other party's realm is much higher than his own. However, as long as the other party is not Shen Xueshuo or Li Jundu, neither of these possibilities can happen.

So the other party doesn't actually know how to practice, but just came here to make up the numbers?

The young man was obviously more nervous than himself, Du Huan sneered slightly and smiled.

Seeing that the other party seemed to be a little more relaxed because of his smile, Du Huan felt that he should be gentle. So he decided to push the other party out later with the hilt of his sword.

The teaching on the side raised the roll call.

"Increase, the first game, Su Gradual, right, Du Huan. Let's go!"

Du Huan heard the other party's name clearly, and while he was stunned, he began to be a little disdainful.

Su gradually Du Huan remembered the rumor, and a smile rose on the corner of his mouth.

"Running away because I was afraid of Li Jundu, it's really a shame for our Da Zhou people. ”

"His father's face was all lost by him......"

"He's really no longer able to practice, which of you can feel the telekinesis in him?"

"Hmph, waste, what a shame!"

Du Huan frowned when he heard the commotion in the audience.

............

Su gradually listened to the discussion of the people below, and was a little helpless and speechless.

People in the world always like to judge people by appearances, and this is also something that cannot be helped.

Since the night of the candle in the cave room, Su Yan's realm has been declining, and there is nothing that can be helped. There is no way to cover up this matter. After all, before that, the name of the third son of the Su family was too big, and the limelight of sitting and forgetting was too loud, and the sentence "You are not worthy" in response to Li Jundu's challenge was too loud. When his realm declined, there were those who gloated, those who had ulterior motives, and those who were ashamed of themselves in the past could finally come out to be clowns who jumped off the beam.

However, no one tried to think about whether the reason why they couldn't feel his realm was because his realm was so high that they couldn't sense it.

So no one is optimistic about Su Yan.

In people's hearts, Su gradually is a waste, a waste that can't even be discerned at first.

Although Du Huan didn't have that kind of mean thought, he also thought that the little young master in front of him was not his opponent. Why do you want to be in the ring? Is it for that pitiful dignity?

He sighed, waved his right hand lightly, and the flying sword with the scabbard stabbed straight towards Su gradually like a short stick!

Su Yan's eyes lit up.

He knew that the other party had no malicious intent, but just hoped to use this scabbard to push himself out of the ring and minimize the lethality. Su gradually smiled and decided to exchange courtesies, so he stretched out his hand and pressed the other party's scabbard with his palm.

He just wanted to resist the other party's sheath, so he resisted, and it seemed natural and natural.

There was silence around the ring.

Everyone was surprised, of course, not only because Su gradually blocked the opponent's first round of attacks.

A sword master is not the same as an ordinary cultivator. If you want to exorcise or repel, you have to be a cultivator who has forgotten the realm. However, if you have to practice to the point of sitting and forgetting to be able to master the sword, then the number of swordsmen in the world will probably be less than the number of dogs who can climb trees.

The path of cultivation of a sword master lies in sword cultivation. All their thoughts are pinned on their weapons, and almost all their mental power is on the sword body, so most swordsmen only have one sword in their lives. Because if you want to change your sword or if your sword is badly damaged, it is tantamount to re-cultivating, so every sword master treats his sword as if it were his own life. It is precisely because they have poured their life's cultivation into their swords that their swords are equivalent to themselves.

Du Huan's sword was like a blow from a cultivator in the materialization realm.

And in front of the swordsman in the materialized realm, ordinary people are no different from babies.

Su Yan did not have the fluctuation of telekinesis, and in the eyes of everyone under the ring, he was an ordinary person.

However, the picture is a little weird these days.

He just raised his hand lightly, and then caught Du Huan's blow, just like a baby, he lightly blocked an adult's full force.

Even more surprising things are happening!

From Su Yan's body, he began to exude the breath of telekinesis.

His body suddenly entered the realm of first discernment!

Just when someone noticed Su Gradual's changes, Su Gradual's realm actually began to rise.

In the blink of an eye, his initial discernment realm entered the realm of materialization.

However, it's not over yet.

The frenzied wave of heaven and earth vitality seemed to have been summoned by some kind of summoning, surrounding Su gradually in the center, forming a huge whirlpool! The whirlpool kept spinning, faster and faster, and the dust around him suddenly rolled up, like a tornado wind, rushing into the air!

Su Gradual's realm came to the realm of materialization in an instant.

Then, stop.

..................

As everyone knows, in the historical materials, even the most genius of the first generation of the academy dean took half a year to become a materialized cultivator from an ordinary person.

However, Su gradually went from an ordinary person to the materialization realm, and it only took a short moment!

Among the onlookers, some are good at perceiving. They can swear by their own cultivation life, Su Yan is indeed an ordinary person before blocking the scabbard of this flying sword!

What does this mean?

Could it be that he is really a god power?

Or is his talent far above that of the first academy dean?

No one has been able to find an explanation.

No one had time to find an explanation.

Du Huan's eyes suddenly became cautious.

He waved suddenly, abandoned the scabbard, and the flying sword came out of its sheath with a thud, and retreated in mid-air, then stopped, and stabbed again!

Su gradually tilted his head and dodged. The flying sword flew too fast and didn't brake castration, so it slammed into the ban, and then like drunk, it spun around twice in the air, and then stabbed Su gradually in the back of the head!

The crowd resounded with exclamations one after another!

If Du Huan's move is used on the battlefield, it is indeed a killer move. But when used in the assessment and competition between classmates, this trick is too vicious. The female students in the ring covered their mouths in amazement, their eyes flashing with concern.

It wasn't that he didn't expect that he would fight against his fellow martial arts cultivators, such as Li Jundu, such as the classmate who was also in the Materialization Middle Realm, which was also in his plan. However, in his plan, he never thought that he would have a tie with the waste "Su Gradual" in people's mouths!

The sword flew like lightning, shuttling up and down the ring, conjuring the afterimage of the debut in the air. From time to time, the onlookers let out one or two exclamations, which made the situation even more tense.

However, Su gradually did not feel nervous.

The flying sword, which was like lightning in the eyes of others, was not much faster than a rabbit in Su Yan's perception.

For an ordinary person, although a running rabbit is difficult to intercept and catch, it does not take too much effort to lock on and avoid it with your eyes.

Su Gradual's perception is very keen, and his range of perception is also very broad.

Because as long as you want to control a flying sword, no matter how strong a cultivator is, he must establish an invisible connection between the flying sword and himself. This connection is invisible, but in the practitioner's perception, it is like a long rope. Using perception, an excellent cultivator can easily capture the movement of the flying sword, and even its movements!

Su gradually suddenly flipped back, and the flying sword stabbed through his original back.

Su gradually landed and immediately raised his foot, because the flying sword suddenly turned and slashed, and in the trajectory, it was the position of his ankle.

Su gradually tilted his head, and the tip of the sword passed by his earlobe, but it did not bring Su gradually the slightest damage.

The speed of the flying sword is getting faster and faster, its moves are becoming more and more unpredictable, and its power is getting bigger and bigger.

Su gradually dealt with it more calmly.

Du Huan suddenly understood the helpless truth.

If you continue like this, even if your mental power is exhausted, you won't be able to bring a little harm to the other party. He didn't use any means of attack, he just relied on perception to dodge, and it seemed that he chose to dodge and defend helplessly, but in fact it was very easy, and the loss of mental power was very small.

Su gradually realized the helplessness and despair of the other party, and while smiling at the corner of his mouth, he was deeply grateful for the old man's training.

............

In the past two months, the old man Feng Qingyuan has given a lot of suggestions and made a lot of adjustments to Su Yan's practice, and he has taught him a lot of actual combat tactics.

The most important of these is perception, the perception of everything.

Compared to martial arts cultivators who attack simply and clearly, cultivators such as Fu Master, Onmyoji, and Yi Shi who are good at mental power manipulation have an extremely obvious weakness, that is, weak defense. If they are approached by martial arts practitioners, unless they can use life-saving means, such as the "A" character of the Fu Master, the "Vajra Meaning" of the Yi Master, and the "Tai Chi Mantra" of the Onmyoji, they will definitely be defeated. It's okay to fight, if it is a life-and-death rival, and the cultivator is close to the martial artist, it is the beginning of death. Because no matter what kind of means, it is a great drain on mental power - with layers of paper, blocking the big axe of the wrestler, it is already a miracle to be able to withstand a blow, where can it be held for a long time?

Although the cultivator's life-saving means are ten million times stronger than the piece of paper, the warrior's fist is undoubtedly stronger than the wrestler's axe. Besides, no matter how much mental power you have, there will come a time when you will run out. No matter how powerful the telekinetic shield is, it is impossible to provide endless protection for the practitioner.

Although Su Yan is the son of the general of Zhengbei, he does not seem to have received the family's martial arts cultivation since he was a child, and he is far less strong than the body of a martial arts practitioner who can resist the blade of a flying sword. Therefore, the cultivation direction designed for him by the chess saint Feng Qingyuan is the path of the teacher.

And for any cultivator other than a martial arts practitioner, the martial arts practitioner's melee attack is always secondary, and the sword master's flying sword is the most deadly!

Because a qualified flying sword is enough to pierce the target's body more than a dozen times in an instant!

Under the old man's teaching, Su gradually not only strengthened his perception of the vitality around his body, but also used those vitality to perceive the objects shuttling in the vitality.

For this, he has paid a very heavy price.

In one day, the flying rock controlled by the old man hit 263 times - this is his highest record.

Compared with the old man's flying stone, the speed of this flying sword is not much different from that of a turtle.

............

Gongsun Qingyang, who was watching the battle from a distance, remained silent all the time. Although it was far away, he could see every movement of Su Yan clearly. He could see every stab of the flying sword, every slash, and he could also see every dodge and every jump of Su Yan.

Is this what you're doing, teacher?

He frowned slightly.

Yes, this kid is not simple. His indiscriminate realm at that time deceived many people, and even deceived my eyes. But a teacher is a teacher after all, and you can discover his little secrets. But is that enough?

If he wins this one, he will naturally have to face stronger opponents. If he is lucky to the end, he will have to face Li Jundu or Shen Xueshuo, these two geniuses are by no means something that he can fight against.

Gongsun Qingyang suddenly thought that at the star picking conference three months later, somehow, he suddenly laughed at himself.

After three months, how far will this kid be able to improve?

............

Seeing that the stabbing of the flying sword was still ineffective, Du Huan finally lost his patience and stretched out his hand.

The flying sword turned abruptly behind Su Yan, quickly swept over Su Yan's shoulder, and returned to Du Huan's palm.

Su gradually stopped his steps and looked at the other party intently.

Du Huan's body was like a pine, standing proudly. He pondered for a moment, and in the midst of everyone's exclamations, his body was like a sharp sword, rushing towards Su Yan!

After hundreds of futile attacks, Du Huan finally understood the fact that no matter how fast he attacked, it was meaningless to this Su Yan. The perception and reaction speed of the other party is simply shocking.

However, he also understood a truth.

If you want to defeat such an enemy, you can't take shortcuts.

Practitioners other than martial arts practitioners are collectively referred to as "nian cultivation" in the cultivation world, which means "mental power cultivators". Although swordsmen and martial artists are very similar, and the means of attack are very direct, they are actually a vein of Nian Xiu. Although the swordsman, like the martial artist, can also be called the nemesis of "Nian Xiu", the sword master's body's ability to resist blows is no different from that of Nian Xiu, and even because they focus on sword cultivation, the means to save their lives are even more scarce.

Therefore, swordsmen have always been very taboo to defeat the enemy in close quarters.

But Du Huan knew very well that if he wanted to defeat Su Yan, there was no point in using the flying sword again. At least, he didn't have the confidence to defeat the other party's materialized upper realm.

Then speak with courage!
