Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Ground Sword

When the first morning light climbed up to the window of Chen Xi's house, Chen Xi sat cross-legged on the wooden bed neatly dressed and closed his eyes to recuperate. Today he didn't go to practice, he needed to save his body and energy to cope with the upcoming monthly exams. The number of people who participated in the assessment this time was more than 200, but there was no Ding Mei among them. Chen Xi knew that Ding Mei's cultivation had also improved by leaps and bounds these days, but she was just too tranquil and quiet, and she didn't like to fight.

And she has almost no experience in combat, so she was forced by Yuan Fenglei's natal sword when she was in Dagu Mountain. But Chen Xi knew that there were other reasons why she gave up this monthly exam, although Chen Xi was a little stupid in some things, he could also guess that Ding Mei was afraid that he would be distracted.

Chen Xi wanted to persuade her, but Chen Xi also understood that Ding Mei's temperament also had a stubbornness. If Chen Xi repeatedly asked Ding Mei to take the monthly exam, it might be even more difficult for Ding Mei. In Dagu Mountain, Chen Xi desperately saved Ding Mei, and Ding Mei naturally wanted to do something for him. Chen Xi understands Ding Mei's character, and it is precisely because of this that he did not persuade Ding Mei, he doesn't want Ding Mei to feel that he owes him anything.

The time was almost up, Chen Xi got up, walked to the mirror and stopped, smiling at himself in the mirror. This time it's no longer that kind of practice smile, but an encouragement for yourself.

Walking out of the door, Chen Xi saw Gao Qingshu and Ding Mei standing in the courtyard waiting for him. Chen Xi smiled and signaled that he was ready. Gao Qingshu walked in front, and Chen Xi and Ding Mei followed behind him side by side. When you walk on the bamboo forest path, it is lively, and each teacher takes his disciples to the waterfall.

Not far from the deep pool of the waterfall there is a large open space where monthly exams are held. At this time, almost all the people of the Inner Sect had arrived, and they gathered on the high slope a hundred meters away from the open space. The disciples who did not take the monthly exam were all there, cheering for their fellow disciples.

When every teacher walked out of the open space with his disciples who had taken the monthly exam, there would be a burst of cheers on the high slope. The number of disciples of the Inner Sect is not quite large, and it may be more than the total number of the six academies of the Outer Sect. This is a change that only happened after Chen Xi's parents were arrested ten years ago, and there were only more than 100 people in the inner sect before. There were no more than five disciples per sect, but later, the maximum number of disciples was seventy or eighty.

This change comes from the intervention of the Dark Law Division, which has brought in a large number of young people from the outside since ten years ago, and they do not have to participate in the selection of the outer sect to directly enter the inner sect to practice. These are unknown to the disciples of the Six Academies of the Outer Sect. In the minds of the disciples of the Sixth Academy of the Outer Sect, the Inner Sect is still a mysterious place high above.

There were cheers when every teacher came with his disciples to participate in the monthly examination, but when Gao Qingshu came with Chen Xi and Ding Mei, the scene was quiet and uncomfortable. Because Gao Qingshu only has two disciples, Chen Xi and Ding Mei, where are there others to cheer for them?

After arriving outside the clearing, Gao Qingshu didn't say anything, patted Chen Xi's shoulder and went to the teaching seat. Ding Mei was a little lonely and walked up the high slope alone, but there was only Chen Xi in his eyes. The hustle and bustle around her has nothing to do with her, she is in her own world, and her world seems to be something that only the people in her eyes can fit into.

After about half an hour, everyone arrived. Chen Dingdang, the head of the Discipline Hall, walked to the center of the open space and waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet: "You all know the rules, so I won't say anything." Every time the opponent is drawn by himself, so it's absolutely fair. Fight one battle at a time, and if you win in the end, you will be the first. ”

As soon as he waved, dozens of purple-robed enforcers walked over carrying something. Chen Xi saw that those things seemed to be rolls of curtains, and those law enforcers unfolded the curtains and divided the open space into twenty small open spaces thirty meters square. The height of the curtain is only about knee-high, so it does not interfere with the view.

Chen Xi noticed that there was a strong fluctuation of vitality on the curtain, which should be to prevent the two people in the competition from affecting the others. This is actually to divide the competition venue with a small enchantment, after all, there are so many disciples who are qualified to enter the monthly exam, so the competition should be held at the same time.

It was the people of the Discipline Hall who were in charge of maintaining order, and these expressionless purple-robed enforcers were intimidating. Chen Xi saw Tang Gu among the enforcers, who raised his hand and gave him a thumbs up. Chen Xi smiled heartily and said thank you in his heart.

The disciples who participated in the competition entered the venue in order, and then each took a paper ball from a table. The name written on the paper ball is the first opponent to face next. It's fair to do this, no one knows who their opponent is, and it's full of unknowns. Moreover, it is very likely that two more powerful disciples will encounter each other in advance, so it can bring sensory stimulation to the onlookers from the beginning.

A total of two hundred and four people participated in the monthly exam, according to the principle of first come, first served, half of the people went to get the paper ball, and the remaining half passively accepted their fate. This process lasts a lot of time, and then there is really no time for people's eyes to be idle.

Forty people entered the twenty venues, and the invigilators in these twenty venues were the elders of the Inner Sect. They don't bring disciples, so it's fairer.

Chen Xi looked at the note in his hand, and then felt that his luck was really not very good. The person he drew was one of the people Gao Qingshu reminded him to pay attention to...... Huang Guanhai.

......

......

The first batch of forty disciples on the field did not have Chen Xi, he calmly watched those people display their skills, and for a while, the open space was full of colors, and these heavenly pride took out the most powerful cultivation to try to defeat the opponent. Chen Xi's attention stopped on a person, this person was called Guan Ze.

This person was the fastest to end the competition, and after coming on the field, he knocked the opponent to the ground with only one move, and then walked out of the field with a blank face.

Too fast, before the other competition venues started, Guan Ze had already won. His opponent and him are not at the same level at all, and the gap between the two sides in terms of realm is too big. Sekizawa's opponent had a pained expression when he saw that he had drawn Sekizawa, and the first thing he did when he came on the court was to raise his hands and announce his abstention. Guan Ze said coldly to put down his hand, and this person subconsciously put his hand down and was disabled by Guan Ze with one move.

This kind of violent aura seems to be particularly strong in the inner sect. Chen Xi looked at himself when he saw Guan Ze go down, and he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional.

At this moment, he felt someone coming behind him, and looked sideways at Guan Lie, who was now much shorter than himself. Guan Lie was still the same cold look in front of people, and after walking to Chen Xi's side, he lowered his voice and reminded: "If you can win Huang Guanhai, there is no problem in entering the top five, but if you meet Guan Ze before entering the top five...... Don't play. ”

"Why?"

Chen Xi asked.

Guan Lie was silent for a moment and then replied a few words: "He is crazy." ”

After saying this, Guan Lie turned around and left, Chen Xi frowned slightly, and always felt that something was wrong. Then he heard the enforcers shouting loudly: "Chen Xi, Huang Guanhai has a showdown!"

Chen Xi put aside all the thoughts in his mind and strode onto the field. Huang Guanhai walked out of the crowd on the opposite side, a young man who looked to be ten * years old. This person's height is almost the same as Chen Xi, and his face is a little less masculine and more feminine than Chen Xi. When he came on the field, his eyes looked at Chen Xi's wrist, and then a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

When Chen Xi saw his expression, he was sure that he was indeed a member of the Huang family of the Holy Church. The current Little Mantian Sect is really lively, and there are two known Templar families involved. Although Liu Xichen left the Xiaomantian Sect, there are still a few people in the Liu family who practice in the Inner Sect.

It seems that the environment in the Imperial Capital City is much worse than that of the Little Mantian Sect. I'm afraid that the Holy Emperor has really reached a dying moment, and these families are all trying to find ways to plan for the future.

The one in charge of judging the two of them was an elder of the Inner Sect, who looked to be seventy or eighty years old, but his real age should be even older. He sat on a chair in a corner of the venue and squinted slightly, not looking at Chen Xi and Huang Guanhai, and after the two of them came on the field, the elder who seemed to be still dozing off said in a very slow tone: "It's still the old rule, when you compete, you rely on real cultivation, and you are not allowed to use any utensils other than your own life." If you have any treasures on you, give them to me first. ”

Chen Xi was stunned, looked down at Chu Lizhu on his wrist, and suddenly understood something. He sneered in his heart, took Chu Lizhu off and stuffed it into the deerskin pouch, and the old man squinted his eyes with a flash of light. He waited for Chen Xi to hand over the things to him, but saw Chen Xi turn around and throw the deerskin bag out, which fell into the hands of Gao Qingshu far away.

The old man's face turned cold, his eyes suddenly opened, and a cold light was released from his eyes, as if he was angry. Chen Xi didn't pay attention to it, walked to the side and stood silent. The old man didn't say anything, took the things that Huang Guanhai handed him, and seemed to say something in a low voice. Although Chen Xi couldn't hear it, he knew by the shape of his mouth that the old man was talking ...... You can shoot him.

Huang Guanhai smiled coldly, nodded and walked to stand opposite Chen Xi, he hugged his fist towards Chen Xi, and his face had already regained that extremely gentle and humble smile: "Please also ask Senior Brother Chen's subordinates to be merciful, the two unsuccessful guys in my family were defeated in your hands last time, right?" Senior Brother Chen is young and promising, which is really admirable." ”

Chen Xi hugged his fists and saluted back: "Senior Brother Huang, you are smiling so fakely." ”

Huang Guanhai's expression changed, he snorted and stretched out his hand to point forward, and the long knife tied to his back immediately flew out, this long knife was about 1.2 meters, and it was a two-handed straight knife that looked ordinary. But Chen Xi could feel a powerful force from that straight knife, which was obviously not ordinary.

Huang Guanhai said while smiling: "My destiny is the straight knife used by the old man of the Holy Church when he was young and early in the army. Although it has been many years ago, this knife has the breath of his old man, Senior Brother Chen, if you feel unsure, you can leave the scene now. ”

Chen Xi made a gesture of please: "Please"

Huang Guanhai didn't say anything anymore, stretched out his hand and pointed forward, and the natal straight knife flew out immediately, he clasped his hands together and crossed his fingers, and whispered: "Xiao Bidi!"

In an instant, the straight knife split out eleven straight knives that were the same in mid-air, a total of twelve straight knives flew to the top of Chen Xi's head in a circle, and then fell violently. The twelve straight knives were inserted into the earth with the tips facing downward, just forming an extremely regular circle, and Chen Xi was in the center of the circle.

Huang Guanhai sneered: "Boy, don't think that you understand this trick just because you have seen Huang Fubo's little groundwork. Now I'm going to let you know what the real Groundbreaker is...... You'll understand what life is better than death!"
