On the other side, at the foot of Yufeng Mountain, Fang Xing's house.

He reclined on the bed, looking out the window at the hazy snow.

On the one hand, for the sake of safety, and on the other hand, he also wanted to take this opportunity to let Fang Xing spend more effort to prepare for the exam, so he advised him not to wander around these days, and to prepare for the immortal ascension trial ten days later at home.

Fang Xing agreed. After all, he didn't want to perform his slightly abnormal hobby of killing pigs live in front of those hanging sword disciples who were secretly protecting him. So he stayed at home.

But...

It is impossible to prepare for the exam, and it is impossible to prepare for the exam in this life.

"Ha~" Fang Xing leaned on the bed, and he was so comfortable that he yawned.

I got tired of seeing the snow outside the window, so I turned over and went to get the bedside table to read it.

It's just that there is still a person between him and the bedside table-Fang Yuanshu, his sister who will stick to him whenever he is free.

At this moment, she was lying beside him delicately, swaying the two white lotus feet that were tilted backwards, while supporting her smooth chin with her hands, and intently flipping through a large book.

And that book is:

"Five Mock Exams, Three Big Exams"

"This..."Fang Xing's expression was subtle.

This book was specially given to him by Li Wuqi before leaving, so as to prepare for the first level of the written test of the Immortal Ascension Trial.

Yes, there is also a written test for the Immortal Ascension Trial.

Because cultivating immortals itself is a profound knowledge, the Hanging Sword Pavilion is not a demon cultivation sect, what they need is a "scientific research talent" with brains, not a primitive person who relies on bloodline and brute force to run rampant.

Therefore, the first level of the immortal ascension trial has always been a written test.

It's just that this kind of written test does not affect the final score, but is more like Fang Xing's subject one exam in his previous life, or the final exam of the university-

Only when you score more than 60 points in the test, proving that you have a certain level of knowledge and literacy in cultivating immortals, can you be eligible to enter the next stage of the trial.

And the door rules of the Hanging Sword Pavilion have an order, and those who enter the pavilion must take the test every time they enter. Even if the descendants of the head of the family come, they still have to pass the immortal ascension trial.

The back door is not easy to go, so you can only put more effort into preparing for the exam at the same time.

This "Fifth Mock and Third Big Exam" is the teaching and auxiliary materials compiled by some disciples of the Hanging Sword Pavilion in order to take care of the younger generations of the family.

It is said that there are also members of the trial question team in the compilation team, which can be described as very authoritative.

"Brother, don't you really want to take a look?" Seeing Fang Xing's eyes, Fang Yuanshu couldn't help but turn on the persuasion mode again: "If it weren't for the fact that our predecessors gave us a copy, where would we have bought this thing in the north?" ”

"Don't think it's not important. It's all about opportunity. ”

"I don't need it." Fang Xing refused again: "You can rest assured, Yuan Shu." Who are your brother and I? It's just some spiritual theories, can't I even score 60 points? ”

Of course not. Because he didn't plan to take the test in the first place.

"Brother." Fang Yuanshu was still muttering, "You better take the time to take a look." The book says that the content of this year's exam may change, and the proportion of the score for history knowledge may be much higher than in the past. ”

Yes. The trial of ascending to immortals not only tests the theory of cultivating immortals and the common sense of immortal paths, but also tests historical knowledge.

Because the country of hanging swords is also considered a country. If it is a country, it must have its own history.

Whether it is the Hanging Sword Pavilion or the Spirit Pool Holy Land, these super sects that rule over both the immortal and secular worlds hope to create a common identity that transcends everything above the individual and the family.

In this way, the recruited disciples can have a sense of identity with the sect, and the sect can be cohesive.

Therefore, in this sword country, everything has to be charged, but there are only two things that do not cost money:

The first is: "Introduction to the Foundation of Cultivating Immortals";

The second is: "World History and the History of the Hanging Sword Country".

These two books are what every literate child should learn from an early age.

The former is to give everyone the opportunity to cultivate immortals, tap the cultivators buried at the bottom, and enrich the talent pool of the Hanging Sword Pavilion;

The latter is mainly to introduce the glorious history of the Hanging Sword Pavilion and shape people's common identity.

And the Hanging Sword Pavilion does have a lot of glorious history to tell.

Ten thousand years ago, in the battle of salvation that liberated the two races of human and demon from the supreme heavenly demons, the ancestor of the Hanging Sword Pavilion participated.

The Blood Sacrifice Ceremony of the Blood Sword Palace, the Ten Thousand Soul Banners of the Netherworld Sect, the Corpse Sea Tide of the Corpse Puppet Gate, and the endless cultivation techniques of the Evil Dao all threaten the lives of ordinary people at all times.

Over the years, they have also been the top ten immortal sects such as the Hanging Sword Pavilion and the Lingchi Holy Land, and they have been trying their best to fight against them.

I am present in the battle to save the world, and I have a credit for fighting against the devil. With real historical achievements, the historical image of the Hanging Sword Country has gradually become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

But it only didn't enter Fang Xing's heart, because:

"Brother, you fell seriously ill four years ago, and you forgot all the previous things." Fang Yuanshu said with a little worry: "And those historical knowledge were all learned by us when we were children. ”

"I don't know, you can still master a few points now."

"Don't worry." Fang Xing was confident.

"I know all these things."

What he wants is to fail.

Learn? Learn a fart!

"Still." Fang Xing looked at his sister with some concern: "Yuan Shu, why do you always hold this book?" Could it be..."

He thought of something. Sure enough, I only heard Fang Yuanshu nodding and saying, "Hmm! Brother, I'm also going to sign up for the Immortal Ascension Trial! ”

"Otherwise, brother, if you are admitted to the Hanging Sword Pavilion, won't I have to stay in this world alone in the future?"

Looking at Fang Yuanshu's pure and firm little eyes, Fang Xing couldn't help but smile.

Looking at what she said, it seemed that as long as she was willing, she would definitely be able to enter the Hanging Sword Pavilion with him.

"You've only practiced the fourth layer of qi, isn't it too early to say this?"

The four-level Qi cultivation at the age of 18 is already quite outstanding for a layman monk. But the competition in the Immortal Ascension Trial is fierce, and just being excellent is far from enough.

"Brother, don't worry." Fang Yuanshu said confidently; "I can feel that I can break through the fifth layer of Qi cultivation in the next few days!"

Fang Xing was slightly surprised: "Oh, so fast? ”

"Believe it or not." Fang Yuanshu lay on his side, grabbed his hand, and put it on his dantian without saying anything.

And as soon as he put his hand on it, he could clearly feel it...

Soft and flexible, flat and firm, you can vaguely feel the outline of the vest line, and the breath rises and falls strongly, giving people a sense of vitality and youth.

"Hmm..." Fang Xing was stunned for a second, then decisively withdrew his arm: "Your dantian aura is indeed abundant." It seems that it won't be long before you break through to the next small realm. ”

"If you first enter the fifth layer of Qi cultivation, you can also fight in the Immortal Ascension Trial."

"But..."He looked at his sister who was seriously preparing for the exam with some concern: "Yuanshu, what if I don't pass the exam, what will you do?" ”

Fang Yuanshu barely hesitated for a second: "Then I won't take the test either." ”

"Even if you have a chance to get in? Yuan Shu, this is an opportunity to enter the Hanging Sword Pavilion. ”

"Where my brother is, I'll be there." That's all she answered.

"But you're going to grow up someday." Fang Xing thought of the embarrassment that flashed just now. Maybe there are some words that should be made clear now: "Yuan Shu, you can't stay by your brother's side forever." ”

"We're brother and sister, we're not... Taoist couple. ”

"Hmm..." Fang Yuanshu's face was delicate, and he also wanted to speak.

She's struggling with whether to tell the truth now.

In fact, when she said goodbye to Master Shen Operator that time, she specially asked him to calculate her marriage with Fang Xing.

Although the god operator didn't want to waste his energy on this kind of thing, he couldn't bear to be fascinated by metaphysics after witnessing it with his own eyes, and he pleaded and begged hard, so he finally agreed.

As a result, this god operator pinched her in his hand, and finally only told her:

He calculated that Fang Xing's heroic appearance and fate were peach blossoms, and he might be about to attract a lingering peach blossom fate in the near future.

"This evil fate..."Fang Yuanshu was extremely entangled: "Are you talking about me and Brother Fang Xing?" ”

Brother and sister, man and demon, it's also a bad fate, right?

The divination of the divine operator seems to be saying that she can achieve positive results with Fang Xing.

But the gap between humans and demons is too great.

Although the human race and the demon race were close comrades-in-arms in the fight against the demon race 10,000 years ago.

Even the savior Xuanji Niangniang, who is now worshiped by the human race, was the power of the demon clan back then.

But that's all in the past.

Now the ten immortal sects of the human race and the six demon kingdoms of the demon race stand side by side in the world, the human monks like to refine demon medicine, and the demon monks like to eat people and drink blood, and the two clans have long been in flames.

In the people of the Hanging Sword Country, the image of the demon clan is basically similar to the demon clan in the history books... The kind that can stop children crying at night when they say it.

"If I tell my identity now, will my brother resent me?"

For young girls with the beginning of spring, confession has always been difficult. Even if she was confident in the relationship between herself and Fang Xing, she would inevitably have a sense of gain and loss.

"The master is right, it should be accurate... He's a god! Fang Yuanshu was still struggling there, how to respond to Fang Xing.

At this time, there was a special wind outside the courtyard.

It was the sound of the flying sword falling slowly, and the air flow discharging the wind and snow.

Immediately afterwards, a slightly lazy female voice came from outside the door: "I am Su Muyun." ”

"I came here on the order of Senior Brother Li Wuqi to recuperate for Fang Xing."
