Entering the gate is a yard the size of a school field, more than a dozen strong men are boiling their bodies, some are lifting stone locks, some are beating wooden people to practice boxing, and some are jumping on plum blossom piles......

After the young man shouted, a yellow-faced young man walked out of it, saw Zhao Lin, and said "Huh", "I seem to have seen you." ”

"I used to be Lifu, and I came here to deliver goods."

Zhao Lin also recognized the other party, it was the yellow-faced young man who delivered and received him a month ago.

"Oh, I remember."

The yellow-faced young man smiled and said with some surprise: "You are here to learn martial arts this time?" ”

Zhao Lin nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

The yellow-faced young man put away his smile and said, "Our Liuhe Sect is strict in accepting apprentices, and you can't just give money to come in, I think you have heard of it." ”

"I'll ask you a few questions first, be sure to answer them truthfully, and we'll check them out."

"Okay." Zhao Lin responded.

"What's your name, have you studied martial arts before?" The yellow-faced youth asked.

"In Xia Zhaolin, I haven't studied martial arts." Zhao Lin replied.

"How old?"

"Sixteen."

"Did your parents or family members join a gang or have ever been involved in the Gang Section?"

Zhao Lin was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart Is this a political trial? He replied: "No, my ancestors have been farming for generations, and they all abide by the law." ”

The yellow-faced young man glanced at him unexpectedly, "The apprentice's monthly tuition fee is two taels, and he pays three months at a time, can you afford it?" ”

"Six taels of silver, I'm ready."

Zhao Lin said and reached into his arms.

The yellow-faced young man hurriedly stopped him: "Don't be busy taking the money first, and then talk about passing the assessment." ”

He said to the young man who had just opened the door: "Go and find the senior brother and ask him to preside over the entrance examination." ”

The young man answered and ran to the back hall.

After a while, a burly man of about thirty years old walked into the courtyard.

The big man was born with a leopard's head and ringed eyes, a swallow's jaw and beard, and a fierce air in his gestures.

"Big brother."

The yellow-faced young man bowed, pointed at Zhao Lin and said, "This person wants to enter our Liuhe Gate, please ask Senior Brother to help with the assessment." ”

"Good!"

Senior Brother walked up to Zhao Lin, looked up and down for a while, and nodded: "Well, the body is Zhou Zheng, and he is not very old, so it is estimated that he will be able to grow taller in the future." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly slapped Zhao Lin on the shoulder, and Zhao Lin only felt a hot current rush into his body, circled around his chest and abdomen, and disappeared in an instant.

"I haven't practiced martial arts, my roots are okay, and I am qualified for the assessment."

Not bad?

Listening to the words of the senior brother, Zhao Lin was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that my body has been transformed by the spirit of the old scalper and Xiong Zhen, but it is okay?

But after thinking about it, the predecessor never had enough snacks and clothing, and owed too much to the foundation, so he was definitely not as good as the people who lived a rich life and grew up eating big fish and meat.

It has only been less than a month since he absorbed the essence by himself, and it is impossible to become a genius in the sky overnight.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lin really attached importance to this assessment.

I only heard the senior brother continue: "The assessment is divided into three parts, which test your balance, strength, and agility respectively. Let me talk about the assessment rules first, you have a number in mind in advance. ”

"The assessment is divided into three classes according to performance, three classes in the middle class, and nine classes in the lower three classes, and if you want to pass the assessment, you can't lower than the third class on average, do you understand?"

"Got it!"

Hearing that there is strength, Zhao Lin felt a little relieved, but he didn't know how he performed in the other two items.

"Okay, then test your balance first."

The elder brother walked up to the plum blossom pile and jumped up gently.

He stepped on a stake with one foot and lifted the other, keeping his thighs parallel to the ground, his body nailed to them, motionless.

"Stand like me, the longer the better, you have three chances."

After speaking, he jumped down from the plum blossom pile and motioned for Zhao Lin to go up.

The men who were practicing gathered around and watched quietly from the sidelines, and they didn't speak very interestingly.

Do you have yoga?

Zhao Lin saw that the wooden stake was about three feet high from the ground, and the surface was only the size of the bottom of the bowl, and standing in such a small place with one leg required quite high balance and coordination of the body.

He silently adjusted his breathing to calm his feelings, looked at the two wooden stakes, jumped up and stepped on them respectively, and then shifted his weight to one leg, and lifted the other leg in the same way that the senior brother had just done......

Thump!

A moment later, Zhao Lin fell off the stake.

"Two more chances." Senior Brother reminded.

"Come on, I'll do it!"

Zhao Lin cheered himself up in his heart, stabilized his mind, and jumped on the stake again.

This time it lasted longer, and fell off the stake after about a dozen seconds.

Zhao Lin's eyes swept around the faces of the onlookers, although they didn't speak, but judging from their expressions, their results were not ideal.

The third time I lasted for half a minute.

After landing, Zhao Lin looked at the senior brother.

The senior brother said in a deep voice: "Middle-upper, fourth-class!" ”

The second is a test of strength.

The test equipment was very simple: a wide-mouthed stone urn the size of a bucket, and seven or eight large and small stone locks.

The senior brother pointed to the stone urn and said, "The stone urn weighs one hundred catties, and the stone lock has twenty catties, fifty catties and one hundred catties." ”

"How much you think you can lift, put the stone lock in the stone urn and lift it."

Zhao Lin looked at the stone lock on the ground and asked, "How many can you get the first class?" ”

Senior Brother smiled, "One hundred catties is the ninth class, and every twenty catties is added by one class, how much do you calculate for the first class?" ”

Zhao Lin said without thinking: "Two hundred and sixty catties." ”

Senior Brother nodded, "Not bad. But you're young, so you can lower the standard a little bit and drop twenty pounds. ”

"Thank you, senior brother, but according to the original standard."

Zhao Lin walked over, grabbed the largest stone lock weighing 100 catties and put it into the stone urn, and then put another stone lock of the same weight.

He was hesitant to hide it at first, but now he felt that it was unnecessary.

The first item was only rated fourth, and the third agile assessment didn't know what performance it could have, and the score must be pulled to the highest in the strength assessment, otherwise it would not even pass the assessment.

"Three hundred pounds! How dare he! ”

"Strong, I haven't seen anyone who can lift two hundred and sixty pounds in the assessment."

The crowd of onlookers whispered.

Someone also kindly reminded Zhao Lin: "Little brother, the bottom of this stone urn is slipping very slippery." It doesn't matter if you can't lift it, if you strain your arm, you can't lift it if you want to lift it lightly. ”

The yellow-faced young man also said: "You can start with a light one and slowly increase it." ”

"I'll try it first!"

Zhao Lin smiled, leaned over and hugged the stone urn, supported his two hands upward, and raised his head above his head suddenly.

"This ...... It's really lifted! ”

"It doesn't look strong, why is it so strong!"

Everyone's eyes straightened, and sighs erupted for a while.

"Good! One force will drop ten times, which is a piece of material for martial arts. The elder brother blurted out praise.

The yellow-faced young man stroked his palms and said, "With the performance of this one, even if you don't pass the agility test, you can still enter the door, right, senior brother?" ”

Brother Dashi pondered: "Don't talk too much, let him take the next test seriously, strength is only one aspect, you can't generalize." ”

Zhao Lin put down the stone urn and deliberately wiped his sweatless forehead, showing that he was very tired.

The performance just now is too good, you might as well keep a low profile and slowly show your strength after entering the door.
