Hearing the words that sounded like provocation, the butler Ekri's face changed, but then he patiently explained: "Our Auburn Martial Arts Hall has always had to be assessed before we can sign up,."

Then, the butler Ekri didn't let the big guy who spoke just now continue to speak, and immediately continued to introduce: "Our Auburn Martial Arts Hall is divided into four classes according to the strength of the students, namely the beginner class, the beginner class, the intermediate class, and the advanced class, the beginner class recruits beginners who have no experience in swordsmen, and the elementary, intermediate, and advanced classes correspondingly recruit low-level, intermediate, and high-level swordsmen. ”

Ekri then went on and on about all sorts of things, and Ryan had to listen patiently.

After a quarter of an hour, Ekeri finished his introduction to the Auburn Martial Arts Hall, and then asked everyone to name their swordsman level and the class they wanted to sign up for.

Next, one by one, everyone said their rank.

Ryan doesn't compete with others to be the first, and waits quietly for others to speak first. After a while, Ryan was surprised to find that the applicants of about ten people were basically low-level swordsmen, and only one was an intermediate swordsman.

Ryan thought about it for a while, and could only think of one possibility, that is, middle and high-level swordsmen are generally organized and powerful, so few people join the martial arts hall to learn swordsmanship.

The last one, it was Ryan's turn to speak, and Ryan said with some embarrassment: "I'm a level 5 swordsman and want to sign up for the advanced class." ”

Suddenly, everyone who signed up was very surprised, and they all looked at Ryan with surprised eyes.

Ekri, the butler, was not much of a surprise. Their martial arts hall has set up an advanced class, and they are preparing for a high-level swordsman like Ryan to sign up.

Next, Eckry asked the other applicants to follow the servants around him to go to the assessment, leaving Ryan alone.

Ryan was a little weird. But he still waited with a blank face.

Immediately, Ekri looked at Ryan carefully for a moment before he asked in a high-pitched voice, "What is Your Excellency's name?" Why join our martial arts gym? ”

Hearing Ryan say that he was a level 5 swordsman, Eker's attitude was also much more polite, but his sharp voice still didn't make people feel good.

Ryan was not surprised at all by this question, he had expected it before he came, and he would definitely encounter a lot of doubts. Come to think of it. No matter which martial arts gym it is, if you suddenly encounter a level 5 swordsman who wants to join, you will naturally ask with suspicion.

Therefore, Ryan said in a calm tone: "My name is Ryan, and I am from the Principality of Pooles. Because I just advanced to level 5 swordsman some time ago, but I found that I don't know how to cast the blade, so I want to join the martial arts hall to learn how to cast the sword blade, and learn other sword skills by the way. ”

Ryan decided to tell the truth, and he was a bit embarrassed by the reason. But this is also a problem that other self-taught swordsmen will encounter, and it is reasonable.

Ekeri was stunned, he couldn't imagine that Ryan would join the martial arts gym for this reason, and couldn't help asking, "Don't you have a teacher?" ”

"Nope. I learned the Dou Qi Sword Technique at the academy before. After that, he left the academy and wandered around. ”

This explanation. Ekeri somewhat understood Ryan's situation, but he continued to ask a lot of questions. I can't wait to ask Ryan all the questions.

In order to join the martial arts hall, Ryan had to answer patiently one by one.

Unexpectedly, at the end of the question, Ekri did not say whether to recruit Ryan, but said to Ryan: "In a situation like yours, I have no right to recruit you, and it is up to the instructor of our martial arts hall to decide." ”

This time, Ryan was scolding in his heart, he didn't expect that he had answered the other party's question for so long, and the other party finally said that he had no right to recruit. But under the eaves, he had to bow his head, and in order to join the martial arts hall, Ryan had to endure it.

Fortunately, Eckry didn't leave Ryan in the courtyard at the entrance, but took Ryan into the corridor and into the martial arts hall, otherwise Ryan's anger would have been even greater.

After passing through a road tens of meters long, Ruian saw a huge martial arts training ground, which was very large, with a length and width of hundreds of meters. The martial arts training ground is divided into more than a dozen small martial arts training fields piece by piece, crisscrossing each small martial arts training ground, and each small martial arts training ground is separated by a passage more than one meter wide. Most of the small martial arts training grounds are only separated, and there are no walls around them, and these are all open martial arts training grounds. There are only three small martial arts training grounds in the middle, surrounded by high walls, which are closed martial arts training grounds.

Ryan glanced over, there were many people in the open martial arts training ground, basically low-level swordsman students, some of the students practiced swordsmanship alone, some practiced swordsmanship against two people, some sat cross-legged on the ground to practice fighting spirit, and even some people did nothing but sat on the rest chair next to the martial arts training ground and chatted.

Ryan estimated that the number of students in all the students was about a hundred or so, which was far from reaching the limit of the capacity of the martial arts training ground. It can be seen that even if the Auburn Martial Arts Hall has disclosed the mid-level secrets, there are not as many students who come to sign up for the martial arts hall as expected.

Around the training ground, there is a row of houses, flanked by densely packed bungalows, which look a bit like student accommodation. On the front of the martial arts training ground are several buildings similar to auditorium halls, which are probably indoor martial arts training halls of martial arts halls, or other offices. On either side of the hall were rows of bungalows with many rooms, which didn't look like a place to stay, and Ryan didn't know what it was for. Behind the hall, there seem to be many buildings, and even several attics with several floors high can be seen, which are estimated to be where the instructors of the martial arts hall live.

Butler Ekri took Ryan through a row of small martial arts training arenas to a small room next to the hall, and then asked Ryan to wait in the small room for a while, and he went to report to the instructor.

Ryan waited two quarters of an hour before Ekeri came to take Ryan to a slightly smaller hall.

Ryan looked over at a glance, and in the middle of the rectangular hall, there was a large table more than ten meters long, with a backrest chair at each end of the table and a dozen backrest chairs on each side. Seeing the furnishings in the hall, Ryan's mind suddenly came up with the furnishings of the conference room where the meeting was held in his previous life, which was very similar to the current furnishings.

At the end of the table in the hall, the main table was empty, and the first seat on either side and the second seat on the left side were seated by three people.

"These three people should be the three disciples of the hall master." Rui Anxin said secretly, his eyes carefully looking at the three people present.

Sitting first on the left was a middle-aged man in his forties, the oldest of the three, with slightly graying hair on his temples and wrinkles on his face. People who practice heavy sword are generally stout people, and this middle-aged man is no exception, but he is very thin, revealing a much thicker skeleton than ordinary people.

Sitting in the first seat on the right was a few years younger, close to forty years old, but with his fair face and slightly chubby figure, he looked younger. If it weren't for the fact that this person is also very tall, with the slightly chubby fat on his body and the smile on the corner of his mouth, people who don't know would think he was an ordinary shop owner. Ryan didn't like this person, because he felt that this person's slightly chubby face exuded a hint of cunning in a pair of thin eyes.

Sitting in the second seat on the left was a young man who looked to be about thirty years old, and he sat there with a very serious expression, as if no one was around. Ryan only glanced at it, and he could feel the pride that this person exuded. Ryan knew right away that he wasn't a very good person to work with.

Butler Ekri brought Ryan to the table in front of the three of them, did not let Ryan sit down, and introduced Ryan in a low voice: "These three are the three major instructors of our Auburn Martial Arts Hall. After a pause, he continued: "This is the Grand Instructor Kasiaeri, this is the Second Instructor Batu, and this is the Third Instructor Cstino. ”

During the introduction, Ryan nodded to the three instructors respectively, but only the Grand Instructor Kathiari nodded in return, and the other two did not respond.

After the introduction, Ekri retreated, leaving Ryan and the three instructors in the hall.

To Ryan's surprise, the other party didn't speak first, and there was a cold scene. Ryan had to speak: "Hello three instructors, I'm Ryan from the Duchy of Pooles, and I hope to join the martial arts hall and learn swordsmanship." ”

After speaking, Ryan stared at the three instructors without arrogance or humility, waiting for the other party to answer.

Caesari, who was sitting first on the left, reacted, and said with a smile: "Your situation has been told to us by the butler just now, but we need to confirm the authenticity now." ”

Ryan was a little displeased, but judging from the current situation, he could only agree, and this kind of trivial matter was not worth turning over. After all, the three people in front of him are all level 6 swordsmen, although Ryan is confident that he is not afraid of them, but it is also in a one-on-one situation, if the other three join forces, then Ryan has no chance at all.

"Please." There was a hint of displeasure in Ryan's tone.

"Are you really a level 5 swordsman?"

"Yes."

"Prove it, please."

Suddenly, Ryan didn't know how to prove that he didn't know how to prove the iconic blade of a level 5 swordsman. Ryan thought for a while, and then he had an idea, only to see him reach out and pull out the heavy sword from behind his back, and then exert his fighting spirit, and in an instant, the heavy sword appeared more than four feet long.

A level 4 swordsman can also cast a sword that is more than four feet long, but it is definitely not as light as Ryan is now, and only a level 5 swordsman can cast it so quickly and easily.

"Well, looking at your fighting spirit, you have indeed reached the level of a level 5 swordsman, and I heard that you wanted to join our martial arts hall in order to learn how to cast the sword blade. Why not buy a copy of the Secret Book? ”

"I have always been self-taught and cultivated, and I have encountered many difficulties in the process of cultivation, so I joined the martial arts hall not only to learn how to cast the sword blade, but also to learn the experience of other level 5 swordsmen." Ryan has already prepared an answer to this question. (To be continued.) )
