Slowly retracted his fists, carefully comprehending the changes in his body, a surging qi and blood flowed up and down Zhou's body, and he could clearly feel that some impurities were discharged through the pores.

Ordinary people, because they don't pay attention to eating, there are many impurities left in the body, and over time, the body will collapse, and only through recuperation can it get better.

But for those who practice martial arts, these impurities will be automatically eliminated under the flushing of qi and blood, just like some people like to exercise, and after sweating profusely, they feel refreshed.

It's a slow process and takes a long time.

This is also the fundamental reason why people who practice martial arts are vigorous, and as long as they keep it, they tend to live longer.

Suddenly, a faint air flow was changing rapidly, and her body instinctively flashed, dodged, and opened her eyes to see that Ren Ying, a little girl, was holding a handful of stones in her hand.

"Brother, do you have eyes behind your back?"

The little girl ran over, pulled Ren Qiu's clothes, and was held down by Ren Qiu: "Come, let's play a game, you throw me with a stone, as long as you hit me once, I will buy you a sugar gourd." ”

"Really?"

She blinked, grabbed a handful of stones, and smashed them all on Ren Qiu's body, and stretched out her little hand: "Brother, I hit it." ”

Ren Qiu's face darkened, and he grabbed her cheeks with both hands: "This doesn't count." ”

The little girl screamed, and her two little hands pushed desperately.

......

The moon is thick and the cold wind is blowing.

Ren Qiu stood in the courtyard, concentrating and breathing, the blood and qi flowed, stirring up the clothes to flutter, and suddenly retracted the ground and restored calm.

"This thing...... It's almost a physical entity. ”

The illusory little sword that had not changed in his mind had become condensed at this time, and the blue-gray fluorescence circulating around his body gave him the feeling that he would jump out at any time and pierce the void.

Think carefully about everything that happened today.

"Could it be that it is because the qi and blood run through the whole body and the strength increases greatly, that there is a change?"

"No, in the past three months, my qi and blood have increased several times, and this little sword has not changed. ”

"The only change before was three months ago, when I got the Broken Sword Spectrum, and after I practiced it, I only had a little bit of condensation, and today I also practiced the sword in order to keep my blood and qi from breaking through the meridians. ”

He had some ideas, touched his waist, but felt empty, and then remembered that when he was just practicing his sword, he had driven the dagger into the ground.

Fortunately, I also have a few short swords at home, but I have kept the dagger for the convenience of carrying.

returned to the house and took care of Ren Ying, this little girl bit her fingers, pulled the quilt, and slept soundly.

Shaking his head, he covered the quilt for her, and took out a wooden box from under the bed, and after opening it, the two half-meter-long short swords inside flickered in the faint moonlight.

Raising the dagger, he walked out.

Standing in the courtyard, inhaling in, suddenly flicking his fingers, the short sword beating at the tips of his fingers, like a fairy in the moonlight.

"Zheng~"

Suddenly, the short sword shook, and it pierced the void in an instant, with a trace of the sound of breaking the air, and the speed was extremely fast, jumping back and forth in the air at a tricky and strange angle.

After a few rounds of this, he stopped.

Exhaled and breathed, the blood and qi rolled down, and under contemplation and careful distinction, the small sword actually had a trace of solidification.

"Sure enough, you need to practice the sword to solidify this little sword. ”

"But it is not possible to practice the sword alone, if it weren't for the blood and blood flowing through the body this time, the strength will not be greatly increased, and there will be no such effect. ”

A hint of anticipation flashed in his eyes, and he had a feeling that once the little sword was solidified, there must be surprises waiting for him.

"Today, the qi and blood are full of energy, and the strength has increased greatly, presumably during this period of time, it will continue to grow, and when the time comes, this little sword should be almost condensed. ”

With such expectations, he didn't feel sleepy at all, and simply practiced swords in the courtyard.

Early the next morning, prepare the little girl's rations for today, and then go out.

Martial Academy, he was the first to arrive, and the senior brother who was in charge of opening the door was also commonplace, yawning and going to wash.

The sky was slightly bright, and one by one the brothers came over, and the courtyard gradually became lively.

Ren Qiu sat in the corner, did not practice, only concentrated on pranayama.

Suddenly, he felt a cold gaze, his heart jumped, and when he opened his eyes, Zhou Yuan was looking at him with the eyes of a yin owl.

The corners of Zhou Yuan's mouth curled, and he turned around and stopped looking at him.

Ren Qiu's eyes were slightly cold, and he touched his waist meaningfully, but he felt empty, the dagger went into the ground, and it was not dug out, and the short sword was not convenient to carry on his body.

He didn't want anyone else to know that he knew swordsmanship.

Like a wolf hidden in the mountains and forests, it only shows its fangs when it is hungry and threatened.

looked at Zhou Yuan's back lightly.

He clearly remembered what Zhou Yuan said two days ago, once he couldn't pass the assessment, he was afraid that he would immediately trouble him.

"If you don't look for me, I'll look for you. ”

Ren Qiu muttered to himself and continued to recuperate.

On the third pole of the day, all the brothers gathered, and the middle-aged man walked out, followed by a giant bear-like willow.

"Master. ”

When everyone saw the salute, the middle-aged man bowed slightly, and said, "Ren Qiu, Bai Xuan, and Liu Yuan are out of the ranks, and the rest continue to practice martial arts." ”

Ren Qiu took a deep breath and stepped forward under the gaze of many people, followed by two other people.

The three of them looked at each other and remained silent.

"Follow me. ”

The middle-aged man and Liu Zhuangzhuang walked in front, and the three followed closely behind.

to the backyard.

The middle-aged man didn't look at Ren Qiu, and said lightly to the other two: "Bai Xuan, Liu Yuan, are you ready?"

The two of them arched their hands: "Master, please also take the assessment." ”

The middle-aged man nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice: "The world's martial arts, before entering the hall, have to go through three stages, the first stage is the blood and qi through the body, with a hundred catties of strength, can fight more than ten people, and my martial arts academy rolling stone gong, is even better at strength, and is also outstanding in the same martial arts." ”

"Today is your March period, and you must know that once you fail the assessment, you can only leave automatically, and there will be no protection from the Martial Academy. ”

As he spoke, he paused and said, "The two of you, the children of the Bai family and the Liu family, must have used the flesh and blood of foreign beasts on weekdays, and it is not too difficult for you to be nervous." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, looking confident.

"Okay, there are 100 catties of boulders in the courtyard, and I will practice with the rolling stone gong, and I will not stop, and no one is allowed to stop. ”

The three of them immediately said yes, Ren Qiu lowered his head, and looked at Liu Zhuangzhuang out of the corner of his eye, his face was expressionless, and the pestle was like a big pillar there.

Looks like he's really forgotten about me.

Slightly attentive, no longer thinking about it, approached the courtyard with the other two, and each selected a stone the size of a grinding plate.

Take a deep breath, open your eyes, hug the grinding plate with an angry shout, stand up with a force, and your heart sinks, this is only a hundred catties? I'm afraid it's not more than two hundred catties.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the other two, and sure enough, he had the same expression as him, and his heart was relieved, as long as he didn't deliberately target him.

Seeing that the middle-aged man didn't explain, he could only bite the bullet and carry the blood and gas, and the muscles instantly protruded, forming iron bumps one by one.

For a while, the small courtyard shouted like thunder, surrounded by boulders, running back and forth in the chest, and the soil under his feet splashed layers of sand waves.

The middle-aged man smiled, looked at Ren Qiu, frowned, and glanced at Liu Zhuangzhuang: "I remember this person, you brought it into the courtyard?"

Liu Zhuangzhuang looked at Ren Qiu, who was struggling to run the boulder in the courtyard, and smiled: "It's just a casual move, Huang Sheng told me, this person is in He Mengna, through my name, he bought a lot of meat, and he should be able to pass the assessment this time." ”

"Even if you pass this assessment, what can you do? The three realms of qi and blood, qi and blood through the body are only the first step, and then the qi and blood are like lead, and the qi and blood are like rainbows, which is the fundamental, and it is not an exaggeration to save a hundred. ”

"He has a weak foundation and an even weaker physique, even if he forcibly uses meat to strengthen his body, he can't make up for his innate vitality, and he is destined to have limited achievements, not to mention stepping into qi and blood like lead, and his qi and blood are already at the top. ”

The middle-aged man commented and looked at the other two: "Bai Xuan and Liu Yuan, since they were children, they have not lost Yuanyang, they just need to persevere, with their qualifications, the minimum achievement is also qi and blood like lead, maybe they can also step into qi and blood like a rainbow." ”

"Master put it down, I have long been concerned about these two people, and I have secretly co-opted them. ”

Liu Zhuangzhuang responded.

The two didn't talk anymore, just quietly looked at the courtyard, where the three of them carried blood and qi, and used the rolling stone skill to hug the boulder.

An hour later.

The middle-aged man stopped the three of them, and the three of them were immediately paralyzed to the ground, unable to get up for a long time, panting and looking at each other, and then laughing uncontrollably.

Coming out of the backyard, Ren Qiu and the three of them immediately attracted everyone's attention, and the middle-aged man coughed: "Liu Yuan, Bai Xuan, and Ren Qiu are official disciples of the Martial Academy from now on." ”

Unlike three months ago, at this time, there were nearly 200 disciples in the academy, most of whom had not yet reached the assessment period.

Therefore, Ren Qiu and the three of them received many envious and jealous eyes.

Ren Qiu's eyes rolled and looked at Zhou Yuan, and sure enough, he saw that his face was dark, and he looked at him coldly.

Ren Qiu smiled at him suddenly, but it made Zhou Yuan's heart tremble, surprise flashed in his eyes, and he immediately snorted coldly.

The official disciples of the martial arts academy are not only in terms of treatment, but also in terms of dress, although they are still gray clothes, but there is an extra pattern at the corner of the clothes, which is a large stone figure embroidered with gold wire.

When he left the Martial Academy, Ren Qiu had an extra piece of foreign beast meat in his hand, which was different from the one he bought in He Mengna, it was extremely fishy, even if it was covered with a cloth, it was very pungent.

I don't know what beast it was cut from.

As soon as he left the martial arts academy, several people stepped forward: "Senior Brother Ren, congratulations." ”

Ren Qiu knew them, they were old disciples in the Martial Academy, they had never crossed paths before, and today they suddenly got close, because he had passed the assessment and officially became a disciple of the Martial Academy, so he had such treatment.

He is not pretentious, but he is him, and he does not intersect too much with a stranger, and an informal disciple.

He arched his hand and said, "Ren Qiu has seen a few senior brothers. ”

One of them smiled and said: "My name is Luo Zhiyong, this is Zuo Tao and He Tiansong, they will all be disciples of the same academy in the future, and they will be closer to each other." ”

Ren Qiu said with a smile: "This is natural, and I ask you senior brothers to carry more in the future." ”

"Okay, I won't bother the junior brother, Ming'er is drunk in the spring building, and I invite the junior brother to appreciate his face. ”

"Okay, then let a few senior brothers break the bank. ”

After a greeting, Ren Qiu went all the way, and many formal disciples came to talk, intentionally or unintentionally, to get closer.

Some informal disciples, some disdainful, some envious, and even more awe-inspiring, came for a while.

When they arrived at the mouth of the alley, a person came over and said in a low voice: "Fifth Senior Brother let you go." ”

"Zhou Yuan?"

Ren Qiu frowned, glanced at the distance, Zhou Yuan was across the street, and a few martial arts disciples around him, and said lightly: "I'm sorry, I'm a little tired below, I have to go back and rest." ”

"Don't toast, don't eat, don't eat and drink, don't be ashamed to give face, what is the identity of the fifth senior brother, let you pass, it is to give you face. ”

"Whether it's a toast or a punishment, I won't eat, get out of the way, don't get in the way. ”

Ren Qiu said lightly, then pushed him away and left.

The man's face turned dark, he snorted coldly, and went back to tell Zhou Yuan, Zhou Yuan's face became even more gloomy, and he suddenly sneered: "It's just a poor person, I think that if I have a little strength, I will be invincible in the world." ”

"Fifth Senior Brother, you see if you want to teach him a lesson. ”

"No, I have my own means to make him submit, I heard that he has a sister ......"
