"Shu Fu!" Lin Shen muttered lightly, there was not a magnificent mansion in front of him. Eight Way Chinese. The green color gives people a sense of clumsiness, a faint and deep atmosphere, which emanates from the vermilion gate.

"This is my home...... Brother Lin, my father is waiting for you in the room, I want to talk to you about some things that need to be paid attention to in this competition, please come with me! Shu Bai smiled faintly at Lin Shen, and then said.

"Well...... Since I promised you, naturally there is no problem! Lin Shen nodded, and then said to the smoke beside him. Smoke ...... Let's go, let's go in! ”

The woman was slightly reserved, but she raised her head and secretly glanced at Lin Shen. However, the latter didn't notice her expression at all, and walked into the door of Shu Mansion with a smile on his face.

"Take Miss Yan'er to rest...... Brother Lin, come with me! It wasn't until the three of them walked in the huge courtyard for a while that Shu Bai said to the maid standing at the door, and the last sentence was said to the young man.

"Smoke...... Go and rest first, and I'll meet his father!" Lin Shen turned his head and smiled faintly at Yan'er, with an indescribable gentleness in his words.

"Dad, Lin Gongzi is here!" Shu Bai knocked on the wooden door, and then shouted softly.

"Come in!" Suddenly, a calm voice sounded inside, it was Na Shujue. The latter had only returned from Bai Xiaotian not long ago, and at this moment he couldn't wait to see what the person who had been praised by his son was really like.

A deep feeling emanated from the old man who was more than half a hundred years old beside him, and Lin Shen narrowed his eyes slightly, only then did he see the appearance of the person in front of him.

Elegant, only these four words can describe the feeling that Shu Jue gives people. The old man naturally has a temperament unique to a literati strategist, the kind of temperament that is arrogant and dominant.

"You are Lin Shen?" Na Shu Jue smiled indifferently, and then stood up suddenly. His strength is not high, but the momentum of being in a high position and scheming tens of millions of people still shocked Lin Shen's heart.

"Not bad!" Lin Shen smiled faintly, his face was as calm as water, and no one could tell what he was thinking. Joke! He has seen the likes of Sword Male Sword King, and he has also experienced the big battle between sword maniacs, although this Shu Jue is amazing, but if you want to shock him, it is obviously impossible.

Shu Jue frowned slightly, and then stared at Lin Shen tightly. His eyes seemed to be able to perceive everything, but Lin Shen didn't feel anything, and he looked at the former calmly.

After a long time, Shu Jue finally smiled faintly, and then sat down again-

"Not bad! At least the heart is resolute......" only said one sentence, because at this moment he could only see Lin Shen's one advantage. At least in front of him in a high position, he did not show half timidity.

In this way, it can be proved that Lin Shen will not easily break his promise because of some external pressure. So their investment in the latter is still worth it.

"I'll tell you a little bit...... The rules of the Six Cities Tryouts! Seeing that Lin Shen didn't mean to speak, Shu Jue was slightly stunned, and then looked at Shu Bai, who smiled helplessly, and then the old man said.

"Of the six cities in the Six Cities Tryout, I'm the Izumo Empire and the Misty Moon Empire, each accounting for three. Hidden Mist City and Baiyun City are the two main cities, and the other four cities are border cities! ”

"The students of Xiangling Academy...... Both literature and martial arts! Wen is to teach the art of war, strategy, and other related things. And Wu, only teach combat skills! ”

"Because the number of people in the six cities is extremely large...... That's why there is such a thing as selection! Shu Jue paused, seeing that Lin Shen was listening very carefully, but at the moment he nodded secretly in his heart.

"And the selection, the swordsmen in the six cities are a group...... Swordsmen in a group, and swordsmen in a group! As for whether there is a sword maniac or not, it is not a certainty! ”

"Why?" As soon as Shu Jue's words fell, Lin Shen was a little strange.

"Every sword maniac is a person with an extremely firm heart, and how can a sword maniac not have experienced a battle! Therefore, in the selection of Xiangling Academy, the top three realms are generally the mainstay, and sword mania is very rare! ”

"But if there is a sword maniac participating, it also needs to be competed! According to the number of cultivators who participated, 40% were included in the swordsman, 30% in the swordsman, 20% in the swordsman, and 10% in the sword maniac! ”

"If the total number of sword maniacs who go is less than ten percent of all the people, then there is no need to use a competition, and all of them will be admitted!" Shu Jue patiently explained, since he wanted Lin Shen to remember their kindness, then it was natural to make this selection successful, so it was better to explain these questions clearly.

Lin Shen nodded, Sword Mania was already a very powerful realm. If it weren't for the fact that Xiangling Academy was really prestigious, it would probably not be able to attract these people.

In this way, he was quite interested in the Xiangling Academy. Where even sword maniacs can be attracted, how can there be no real material.

“…… What is Xiangling College cultivating these people for? "This is a strange point about Lin Shen, which side does Xiangling Academy belong to, how can the people of the Izumo Empire and the Foggy Moon Empire accept it?

You don't need to know that...... When you really stand at that height, everything will be understood! Shu Jue didn't answer Lin Shen's question, there are some things, it's better not to know.

Although he wondered in his heart, Lin Shen could only give up. After all, if a person like Shu Jue doesn't want to say, no matter how you ask, the other party will not give you an answer, which will only make the other party disgusted.

As for the reason why Xiangling Academy accepted the grassroots cultivators of the two empires, although Lin Shen didn't know, he could guess some more or less. I'm afraid it's not for a certain empire, but for the whole expanse.

The top strong man is deterrence and deterrence. Maybe those high-level demonic beasts have their own organizations and their own wisdom. This is obvious, if the human race does not have a top powerhouse, it will inevitably be intimidated by the countless demonic beasts scattered all over the world.

And how did the top powerhouse come about? Could it be that you were born with it? Naturally not, the top powerhouses also got up step by step, relying on cultivation.

The reason why this Xiangling Academy accepts these low-level cultivators is only because of this reason. Even Lin Shen faintly guessed that the founder of Xiangling Academy was only a great master.

After all, the full of knowledge is not false, Lin Shen has already analyzed a lot of causes and effects just by combining the historical background and knowledge of the continents in his mind, as for whether it is right or not, it is two words.

What's more, why did this Xiangling Academy accept cultivators from the two countries. It has nothing to do with him, all he has to do is to become stronger, stronger, stronger until he reaches the top!

"Selection, how many days to start?" Although Lin Shen thought about it in his heart, it didn't take long, looking at Shu Jue's flat expression, he asked.

"Three days!"

There were only three days, and Lin Shen's strength was only a one-star swordsman. Among the swordsmen, it is definitely the existence that belongs to the bottom. But fortunately, he also has a good spirit sword, as well as sword skills.

It is not a lie that a spirit sword is enough for cultivators to leapfrog the challenge. And Lin Shen's Suoyun Sword is the pinnacle of that sword light, so although his cultivation is only a one-star swordsman, Lin Shen doesn't have much worry in his heart.

He is in order to learn combat skills, so naturally it is impossible to take the road of literature, so he can only compete with other people's real swords and guns. However, with so many people participating in the six cities, Lin Shen was really not sure if he could hold on to it to the end.

According to Na Shujue, among the contestants, at every stage, there will definitely be a nine-star level powerhouse. Facing the nine-star swordsman, Lin Shen had only one word - lose!

But what he had to do was not to defeat all the swordsmen who participated in the selection, but to get into the thirty percent. As long as you can enter Xiangling Academy, you don't have to compete for the first place.

Although the previous ranking could still get the opportunity to study in it for one more year, Lin Shen felt that two years was enough with his understanding. All he has to learn is skill, and no matter how much he learns, it's just skill.

If you really fight, you still have to rely on yourself. No matter how skilled you are, if you can't calm down in battle, you're the one who loses.

"Brother Lin! Are you sure? After coming out of Shu Jue's room, Shu Bai looked at Lin Shen with a solemn face. His father asked Lin Shen to go, mainly to see what kind of talent the other party was. But this side obviously made Shu Jue very satisfied, and felt that supporting Lin Shen was a worthwhile thing.

And this point, Shu Bai had already determined earlier. So his father just saw Lin Shen once, and he had already decided this plan from the bottom of his heart. Because, Lin Shen is worth their investment.

The kind of bearing on the young man is the bearing of a strong man. It's not the strength of the strength, but the strength of the heart. As long as the heart is strong enough, then all the strength is at your fingertips.

“…… I don't know what kind of strength the people who participated in the selection are! So I don't dare to assert it at this time! Lin Shen paused, and then shook his head slowly.

"You don't need to know the strength of those people...... I just want to ask, if you meet someone of your level, how sure are you that you can win? Shu Bai shook his head, and then asked.

"100% sure, complete victory!" Strength of the same level, Lin Shen replied without thinking about it. Although his skills at the moment are no longer the dominant four-elephant magic tricks, the sword skills he has mastered, his spirit sword, can definitely treat any one-star swordsman as scum.

"That's fine...... If that's the case, I can guarantee that Brother Lin's chance of passing has reached eighty percent! Shu Bai nodded, but suddenly there was a burst of relief.

"Oh?" Lin Shen was a little strange, this Shu Bai was so confident.

"Because among the swordsmen, there are the most from one star to three stars! The second best of four to seven stars is ...... And the eight stars and nine stars are all looking for breakthroughs, and they generally don't have that kind of kung fu to participate in this kind of selection! Because in the Xiangling Academy, only combat skills are taught! ”

Shu Bai smiled confidently, those nine-star swordsmen would rather wait until three years later to break through before coming to participate, and they would definitely not waste three years to delay their chance to break through.

It's a very simple truth, skill is important, but strength is obviously more important.
