A group of five people, three men and one woman, and a young boy, were slowly climbing to the top and walking towards the square.

Walking in front of him was a young man with an unattractive appearance, who looked very ordinary at first glance, but a faint glimmer of light in his eyes let Elder Lin know that this person was not as simple as it seemed.

Judging from Xiao Yuyi's reaction, Elder Lin could easily guess that the young man who was walking in front was none other than Elder Xiao's representative, Chen Heng.

Elder Lin couldn't help frowning slightly, it seemed that Elder Xiao had really found a disciple who was not bad.

However, he was not worried, Chen Heng did not seem to be weak in cultivation, but Long Xiangyu was stronger and younger.

As for Long Xiangyu behind him, he didn't pay much attention to Chen Heng, but after seeing Xiao Yuyi's reaction, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and his fists couldn't help but clench.

This person must not stay, even if his cultivation is completely unable to threaten himself.

That's right, Chen Heng finally arrived at the last moment with Xiaobai and others.

Climbing to the top of the mountain and looking at the crowd crowded in front of him, Su Ling couldn't help but sigh: "The True Martial Sword Sect really deserves to be a big sect, and with this momentum alone, there is really no sect in the Barbarian Capital Domain that can compare with it." ”

Su Fan and Zhang Ruohan both nodded secretly, but Chen Heng didn't feel much of it, and said with a smile: "I finally caught up, I'm still worried that because of my business, even you will be late." ”

Xiao Bai glanced at him and said, "What are you talking about? We have already decided to advance and retreat together, and it's just a big deal to really form a hunter group." But then again, it's obvious that we made a mistake, so why hasn't the assessment started yet?"

But what Chen Heng thought was that after getting to know a few of them, he was no longer as eager to enter the True Martial Sword Sect as he was at the beginning. It's just that since he promised Xiao Yuyi at the beginning, he would inevitably do it, and at this time, seeing that the assessment had not yet begun, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You don't have to think about this, as long as you can't catch up!"

Su Ling wanted to pull Zhang Ruohan to squeeze forward, but there were too many people in the square to squeeze in at all, so he could only stand on tiptoe and look forward depressedly.

At this moment, a figure floated from not far away and landed directly on the ring in the middle. If the weight is light, the shadow is out of the dust, and it can't help but be amazing.

This is an old man in plain clothes, close to Jiazi, his face is calm, he is not angry and arrogant, just a stop there, the whole square, originally a little noisy, immediately became silent, breathing can be heard.

The old man glanced at everyone in the audience, and when he came into contact with his gaze, everyone trembled, and suddenly a sense of surrender rose, and he was suddenly shocked in his heart, knowing that this old man's cultivation had been perfected, otherwise it would be impossible to have such momentum.

"Thanks to everyone who looks up to the True Martial Sword Sect, they came to this True Martial Mountain. The old man is the great elder of the sect, and now he officially declares ......"

"True Martial Sword Sect Disciple Assessment-Begin!"

After the Great Elder announced the start of the assessment, applause erupted, and everyone could not hide the excitement in their hearts, they were all looking forward to what kind of assessment the True Martial Sword Sect would arrange.

People who are gifted and confident naturally don't care, since the assessment is arranged for beginner disciples, the difficulty must be within the range of bearing, for them, no matter what kind of assessment, they have the confidence to pass.

On the contrary, people are holding on to the psychology of luck, and they will inevitably feel a little apprehensive in their hearts, and naturally hope that the assessment will be as simple as possible.

Not long after, another ordinary-looking, medium-sized elder took over the position of the Great Elder, looked at everyone in the audience, and said: "Everyone, calm down first, I am the supervisor of this assessment, surnamed Yang, everyone can call me Yang Lao!"

Elder Yang's voice was not as majestic as the Great Elder, and it seemed much calmer, but his cultivation was not weak, and he just spoke softly, but it could be heard clearly by thousands of people in the entire square.

Listening to Yang Lao's words, everyone gradually quieted down, waiting for his follow-up.

Yang Lao paused for a moment, and after the scene was completely quiet, he spoke: "Today is the day when the True Martial Sword Sect opens the mountain gate once every three years, and it is also a major opportunity for you. Although this assessment is mainly to recruit registered disciples, if there are those with good qualifications, they can also make an exception to enter the outer gate, or even the inner gate. Of course, it depends on your own efforts. ”

Yang Lao is worthy of being the person arranged by the True Martial Sword Sect to preside over the assessment, and just three or two sentences made the eyes of everyone below brighten up and their hearts surged.

To have the opportunity to become a registered disciple of the True Martial Sword Sect is already an extremely rare opportunity for these monks who have not yet broken through the innate secret realm.

But listening to Yang Lao's meaning, it seems that there is still a chance to become an official disciple, how can this not make them excited?

Yang Lao smiled slightly and continued: "This assessment will be divided into several parts, and different test methods will be used to comprehensively score all aspects. So, it doesn't matter if you fail, the most important thing is to highlight your characteristics and show your expertise. Of course, if you can get a high score in all aspects, it will be easy to pass the assessment. ”

As long as you have your own characteristics or expertise, you can get a high score and it is possible to make it to the end.

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but boil, and those who were originally lucky gradually gained self-confidence, and many people had already seen the picture of themselves passing the assessment and entering the sect.

Only a few people noticed Yang Lao's last sentence, and that was the point.

Throw the biggest bait first, so that everyone can see hope, and finally a little bit of what needs attention, although it is the most critical point, but people who are in the excitement often don't care too much, or even ignore it directly.

Just like what he said earlier, it is not only the assessment of named disciples, but also the recruitment of some disciples from the inner and outer doors. Then, those who hear it will think that no matter how bad their qualifications are, as long as they work hard, even if they can't become inner and outer disciples, they can at least grab the share of registered disciples.

But is it really that simple?

The corners of Chen Heng's mouth rose slightly, and he was also full of admiration for this old man in his heart.

Maybe before he spoke, everyone was also in the mentality of going all out, but because of the lack of confidence, they definitely couldn't play normally. But when Elder Jingyang said this, let alone play normally, I'm afraid there will be no fewer people who play at a super level.

This is a typical psychological manipulation technique, and his grasp of human nature has reached the pinnacle.

"Okay, the wooden shed over there is the place where you sign up, everyone first line up one by one, and after registering and getting the number, the first assessment will begin. ”

Yang Lao pointed to a ** wooden shed on the left and asked everyone to line up to sign up.

Chen Heng took a look, their position was the farthest away from the registration point, even if it was just a simple registration, I was afraid that it would take a long time before it was their turn.

Just when he was bored, Yang Lao on the stage spoke again.

"While there's still some time, I'll give you some simple instructions!"

Chen Heng couldn't help but be happy in his heart, this Yang Lao was really interesting, the atmosphere of the entire square was mobilized by him, and he refused to stop there.

Let him continue to speak, I'm afraid that people with a slightly worse mind will be directly carried away by the blood, even if the other party goes to jump into the fire pit, it is considered to be a method of passing the assessment.

However, Chen Heng wanted to know what Yang Lao's so-called guidance was, and there should be some key points.

"As we all know, in the cultivation realm, there are mainly monks and cultivators, which is also the difference between the acquired body realm and the innate secret realm. Monks, simply put, are still in the realm of mortals, and they are mainly engaged in constantly tapping their own potential, and the more their potential is stimulated, the closer they are to the pinnacle of human beings. ”

"After breaking through the shackles of mortals and achieving the innate spirit, the body will have aura, so the cultivators of the innate secret realm will always have a much longer lifespan than mortals, which is the energy transformation shared by our cultivators. The quality and volume of energy directly affect the level of each person's realm. ”

"And if it is in the same realm, what affects the combat effectiveness is a different attribute, which we call the spiritual root. The so-called spiritual root refers to the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The energy in everyone's body is almost all composed of these five attributes. It's just that different people, due to innate or acquired influences, the proportion of each attribute is different. ”

"But among them, there will definitely be one that is the most prominent, and the others are relatively weak, as long as you test which attribute you have is the most prominent, you will develop in which direction your cultivation will go in the future. As for the abilities that each of the five elements represents, and the direction in which they are good at, this will have to wait for you to pass the assessment. ”

In the voice of Yang Lao's introduction, the people in the audience were quickly registering and getting the number, and at the same time secretly remembered his words in their hearts.

This is the basic common sense that belongs to cultivators, and many people may know it, but those who are from civilian backgrounds and have no background are all understanding it for the first time, such as Chen Heng.

However, Yang Lao's words also let everyone know that the first assessment may be related to the test of this attribute.

Suddenly, a person not far in front of Chen Heng raised a question.

"Isn't there an exception?!"

After getting Yang Lao's approval, the man tore open his throat and shouted loudly.

There is no way, with his cultivation, in this square of thousands of people, even if he uses all his strength, he can only barely reach the sound in the ring

Yang Lao smiled slightly, and said: "Of course, everything cannot be absolute, what I said before is just compared to normal cultivators, just like a human being with sound limbs and good facial features, but it is inevitable that some special circumstances will cause crooked melons and inferior dates. ”

"I'm just using an analogy, and I don't mean to discriminate. ”

At the end, he added another sentence, which made everyone laugh.

Without waiting for the people below to ask, Yang Lao continued: "In addition to the mass cultivators, there is also a small group of special beings, all of whom are very few individuals. For example, the balance of the five elements, or even none of the five elements. ”

"The balance of the five elements is better, you can choose all-round development or choose one of them, but if you want to achieve something, you must work hard several times, or even dozens of times, than ordinary people to be possible. Therefore, the balance of the five elements also represents inferior qualifications. ”

"And there are no five elements, which is basically equivalent to waste materials, not to mention low qualifications, let alone any attributes, no matter which direction is not suitable for development. Even if he relied on superhuman perseverance to raise his cultivation to a high place, he was not as good as a high-level low-level cultivator. It's like, no matter how thick the cotton you use, you can't stop a rusty needle from penetrating. ”

Yang Lao's words brought everyone into the door of true cultivators, and made everyone feel like they were being empowered.

But in fact, he also concealed some really profound information, such as the existence of a Dao body in addition to the spiritual root.

However, because the Dao Body is a rare unborn genius once in a thousand years, once there is a Dao Body, it also indicates that there will be a peerless powerhouse in the future, which is definitely a figure that the entire cultivation world is robbing.

Yang Lao didn't think that such a figure would appear in this crowd of civilians who accounted for more than ninety percent.

Unconsciously, the registration was nearing the end, and Chen Heng and others undoubtedly became the last group, and there were not many people behind.

Getting closer, Chen Heng found that this registration is actually very simple, just register your name, age and place of origin a little, and then receive a number plate and it's over.

Thinking about it, there are so many people here, it is impossible for the True Martial Sword Sect to take too long to do a detailed understanding, only after a batch of screening, those who remain are worthy of their attention.

After all, in this crowd, there are many luck psychology of fishing in troubled waters.

The number plates that were distributed were actually just wooden hand cards, the size of a palm, and the texture was quite fine, but there was nothing else to see except for one number.

Finally it was Chen Heng and the others' turn, Zhang Ruohan, who was walking in front, received the number "1552", and lined them down in turn, Su Fan, Su Ling, Xiaobai, it was Chen Heng's turn, naturally it was "1556".

Unexpectedly, the number of people participating in the assessment this time was close to 1,600, which surprised Chen Heng a little.

In the past, he heard that the True Martial Sword Sect was declining, and he thought that the talents had already withered, and there were few people left.

In this proportion, it is difficult to imagine the extent of its power in the past, when it was at its strongest.

When the last person received the number plate, in the ring, there were a few more bells behind Yang Lao.

The front five large bells are arranged in sequence, from left to right are divided into five colors: white, green, black, red and yellow, which are covered with various unknown patterns, full of simple and solemn atmosphere.

In the center of each of these bells, a large text is engraved.

Metal, wood, water, fire, earth!

The five bells are the same size and shape, but each represents different attributes.

Not far behind it, there is another big bell with the same shape, but it is turquoise, and there is a big "jade" word on it, which is intimidating.

Before they could take a closer look, Yang Lao's voice came again.

"Now let's start the first assessment - hitting the clock!"
