Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, three years have passed.

Ji Xun once again stood on the family's martial arts trial ground as a trialist.

"I, Ji Xun, have finally come to participate in the trial again. This time, I must let you take a second look at my Ji Xun's talent and strength! Ji Xun thought excitedly.

Three years ago, fifteen-year-old Ji Xun participated in the family's martial arts trial for the first time, but his talent was mediocre and he didn't work hard enough, so he was quickly brushed off and no longer received the family's attention and training.

Martial arts trials are the best way for every big family to select disciples. The Ji family's martial arts trials are naturally the same.

In the Ji family, the disciples of the family who have reached the age of fifteen can come to participate in the martial arts trial, and those who perform well and show extraordinary talent or strength will be valued by the family and will be given key training and resources in the future. And those with mediocre talent and poor strength will be eliminated and will never be able to have a high status in the family.

Wu Xiu's world is such a cruel reality, and it is naturally the same in the Ji family, which is the big family of Canghai City, which is of course understandable.

Although the Ji family allowed disciples to participate in three martial arts trials between the ages of fifteen and eighteen, Ji Xun had not been here for three years since the last trial.

Three years ago, Ji Xun, who stood on the trial ground for the first time, was so high-spirited, hoping to prove himself through the trial and make the family value him.

"I, Ji Xun, must win the first place in the martial arts trial ground today, so that everyone will be impressed by me!"

However, often as high as the hope goes, the disappointment will be as high as the disappointment. In that trial, Ji Xun was eliminated in the second round, and he lost face on the trial ground, and also exhausted his confidence and fighting spirit.

You must know that although there are dozens or hundreds of family disciples who participate in the trial every year, and only the two or three with the highest talent are often the ones who reach the final round, but in the same way, there are very few who can be eliminated in the second round.

It can be said that this defeat is a heavy blow to Ji Xun, who has high talent and strong strength.

But this blow is not necessarily a bad thing, after Ji Xun spent two full days to adjust his emotions, he also realized from this failure that his talent is actually nothing, and it is far from working harder than others, and his heart is arrogant, which is the reason for his failure.

After the failure, Ji Xun wanted to work hard to improve his talent and strength in all aspects, and strive to achieve a good result in the next trial.

But where is the fifteen years that have passed so easily to make up for it?

For more than two months, Ji Xun's cultivation was like a headless fly, and the problem of insufficient cultivation resources caused by poor trial results also brought him a huge blow.

That period of time can be described as the darkest time in Ji Xun's life, repeating the actions of cultivation aimlessly every day, but there has never been much progress.

"Huh, since that's the case, it's better to go out and break through, experience experience, and improve your strength!"

This failure made Ji Xun realize that if he blindly stayed in the family penance, what awaited him was only the growing gap between him and other disciples.

And he Ji Xun is by no means a person who is willing to leave it alone!

He must break through!

His dream since he was a child is to let the mainland leave his legend!

The cultivation of a martial artist cannot only be penanced and have no experience, otherwise it will not be long-term, so the big family will always allow disciples to go out and practice on their own.

Moreover, the opportunities that may be obtained during the experience are also dreamed of by countless cultivators.

However, the danger of training is extremely high, even the most talented disciple in the family, or even a slightly weaker elder, may not be able to survive for half a day.

There is no other reason, in the experience, the identity will be useless, and the talent will also become the talk after dinner, and the only thing that really plays a decisive role is its own strong strength! This is also why very few disciples choose to go out to practice.

But Ji Xun has no choice now. The next day, he resolutely embarked on this road of no return.

Fortunately, in the first month of his training, although he encountered countless dangers and was on the verge of death, he narrowly avoided them.

This month's experience, although he did not gain any additional cultivation resources, has also greatly improved Ji Xun in all aspects, such as in the face of danger, the ordinary disciples in the family are far inferior to him.

In the second month of his training, Ji Xun met his lifelong mentor.

It was a moonlit night, Ji Xun was injured and thrown at the foot of a hill, and he happened to be met by an old man who came down from the mountain, and the old man took him back to the mountain to take care of him.

Although Ji Xun's talent was not outstanding, the strong character he revealed in the process of recuperating from his injuries, as well as his desire to cultivate and improve his strength, deeply moved the old man.

One day, the old man suddenly asked Ji Xun:

"Ji Xun Xiaoyou, you have been with me for some time, I think that although you are not talented, but your cultivation is excellent, I wonder if you are willing to worship me as a teacher?"

Ji Xun was stunned, these days, he never thought of being able to worship the old man as a teacher.

He couldn't see through the strength of the old man at all, he only felt that he seemed to be more mysterious than some of the elders in the family, and he had the demeanor and temperament of a cultivation master, and he was still living in seclusion on the mountain, and he didn't look like an ordinary martial artist at first glance.

Originally, he also wanted to worship the old man as a teacher, but he always felt that he was not worthy of such a powerful and mysterious master.

Now that there is such an opportunity, Ji Xun naturally will not miss it, so he immediately performed the apprenticeship ceremony and worshiped the old man as a teacher.

That night, the old man passed on a technique and a book of knowledge to him to study.

But in the early morning of the next day, when Ji Xun woke up, there was no old man, and even the old man did not leave any message, as if he had suddenly disappeared after a night.

I just worshipped a master, and I disappeared!

But this exercise and this book of knowledge are really lying in Ji Xun's arms, proving to him that everything that happened last night is true.

Since then, although there is no direct guidance from the master, Ji Xun has stayed on the mountain and patiently studied the exercises and knowledge books given to him by the old man.

The exercises were not marked with grades, and Ji Xun did not feel any difference between the cultivation of the exercises and the exercises he learned in the family.

This knowledge book covers a lot of knowledge on the mainland, and whenever Ji Xun feels that his cultivation is hard and he needs to relax, he will take it and take a look, and expand his knowledge by the way.

Now, three years have passed, and more than two years have passed since Ji Xun's apprenticeship.

Ji Xun's strength has improved by leaps and bounds.

This time, his return will inevitably soar high!
