Chapter 18: Promotion Test

"What? You're going to apply for a red belt, and it's a secret promotion?"

In the Supervision Courtyard, Qin Qianqiu, the supervisor, looked at the young man in front of him in surprise, with his mind, just when he heard this strange request, he was slightly surprised and understood why Luo Xiao did this. What really surprised him was that this disciple had just been promoted to Yellow Belt half a month ago, so he advanced so quickly? According to the calculation of opening ten veins when he first advanced, this is a terrifying speed of opening two meridians in one day! How is it possible?

Qin Qianqiu stared at Luo Xiao's face and said suspiciously, "Are you really full of thirty-two veins?"

Luo Xiao nodded calmly and said, "Yes, the disciple has opened thirty-two veins, the Mixed Yuan One Qi Technique has broken through the fourth layer, and the Ten Absolute Martial Arts Selective Martial Arts have also reached Xiaocheng." ”

Qin Qianqiu frowned and said: "If you can defeat the Red Belt disciple with one move, I believe that your Ten Absolute Scattered Hands have already achieved a small success, but the thirty-two veins are ......" He looked at Luo Xiao's calm and calm face, and suddenly understood, this kid, when he was promoted that day, he must have something to hide......

Qin Qianqiu shook his head with a smile: "You kid, others are afraid that you are not brilliant enough, but you are hiding it...... I really don't know how to say hello. Well, go to Thang Long Tower, and I'll personally host the test for you. Remember, I've repaid your favor. ”

On the fourth floor of the Shenglong Tower, under the witness of the supervisor Qin Qianqiu and the deacon in charge, Gu Songyun, Luo Xiao began to advance to the test.

The first item is very simple, with Luo Xiao pressing his palms, the white light on the Yuan Stone lit up one by one, and it didn't take a few breaths before and after, it was lit up to the top of the stone tablet, and it didn't take any time to know that the thirty-two pulses were fully open.

The corners of Qin Qianqiu's mouth, who was watching from the sidelines, twitched slightly, and he shook his head secretly: "This kid is also too cautious, and he really concealed his cultivation." ”

Deacon Gu nodded, took the pen and recorded the completion of the first item on the album, and said: "The second item, the mixed yuan and one qi technique have been practiced to the fourth layer, the qi and blood are like a tide, and the evil is easy to dispel. As he spoke, he pointed to a testing room and said, "Yellow Belt disciple Luo Xiao, you go in now, and when you support it for a while, you can pass the second item." ”

Luo Xiao bowed down to receive the order, greeted Qin Qianqiu, and then turned around and walked into the testing room.

Qin Qianqiu looked at Deacon Gu: "How long do you think this son can last?"

Deacon Gu didn't know the inside story, and saw that Luo Xiao was brought by the supervisor himself, so he only thought that Luo Xiao's elders had an old relationship with the supervisor, and once the test failed, he would intercede and be accommodating. When Shen Shen groaned: "This son has clear eyes and a calm demeanor, presumably the evil is difficult to invade, and it should not be a big problem to support it for a moment." ”

Qin Qianqiu shook his head, knowing that this kid had broken through to the blood refining stage early, and had been hiding it clumsily, but he was afraid that it would not be so simple.

When Qin Qianqiu and the others had their own thoughts, Luo Xiao had already entered the testing room, and when he stepped in, the door of the room automatically closed, and his eyes suddenly fell into darkness, and a cold aura rushed to his face. Listen carefully, as if there are bursts of eerie laughter, flickering left and right, back and forth, erratic. Suddenly in the dark, unable to see, unpredictable, creepy, a little timid, not strong enough, let alone a moment, even half a moment can not hold on.

Regarding the test of this blood refining period, the martial arts class passed by, and the red belt and black belt seniors were also secretive, presumably due to the restrictions of the hall rules. Now that Luo Xiao was on his side, he understood what was going on. Thinking of what Deacon Gu said before he came in, "Qi and blood are like a tide, and evil is easy to dispel", I had a plan in my heart. At the moment, he was angry and dantian, his eyes were closed and he stood quietly, not moving.

After a while, Luo Xiao keenly sensed that something light and fluttering was coming towards him, and as that thing approached, the cold aura became heavier and heavier. This kind of cold is not like the cold of ice and snow, but like the cold of death when a person is drowned in water, and every time he takes a breath, the breath of life passes away little by little.

"It's now!" Luo Xiao's eyes widened suddenly, and he roared, "Whatever you are, give me death!"

The air vibrated violently, and a blood-red light visible to the naked eye rose from Luo Xiao's body, like a blood-colored flame, coming out of his body, burning fiercely, as if the phantom of a dragon was circling around, roaring at the endless darkness.

Something seemed to be burning, and there was a terrible squeak and scream in the air, like a rat that had been stamped on hard.

As the long scream died down, the temperature of the entire darkroom quickly leveled with the outside, and the uncomfortable chill vanished.

So far, Luo Xiao has eaten half of the Jiaowei, this is the flesh and blood of a demigod beast that is almost about to turn into a dragon! How powerful is the qi and blood contained, if it weren't for the fact that he had been cut and cleaned, ordinary martial artists and even warriors would not be able to withstand it at all, it is estimated that a piece of Jiao meat will seep blood from the pores all over his body if he eats it, and the meat will have to become a bloody person before he finishes eating. Once Luo Xiao runs his blood qi, it can be said that it is easy to ward off all kinds of evils, and it is difficult for demons and ghosts to get close, let alone any evil.

"What is it?" Luo Xiao slowly retracted his blood, thought quietly for a while, didn't understand the essentials, shook his head, turned around and pushed the door out.

Outside the testing room, Qin Qianqiu and Deacon Gu heard the door knock, and when they raised their eyes, they were all surprised, they came out in less than half a moment, wouldn't they?

Qin Qianqiu stepped forward and frowned, "Luo Xiao, why don't you hold on for a while?"

Deacon Gu approached, and was about to say something, but when he noticed Luo Xiao's face, he sighed, but the words came to his lips but did not say anything. According to his past experience, those who quit halfway before the time was too late were basically blue-faced and white-lipped, with frightened eyes and trembling all over, as if they were going to faint in the next moment. However, looking at Luo Xiao's appearance at this time, he was the same as when he first entered, calm and calm, as if he had drunk a cup of tea inside and then came out to breathe.

In this case, Deacon Gu has actually seen it, but in the more than ten years he has been on duty on the fourth floor of the Shenglong Tower, he has only seen two cases, and those two cases are all amazing and brilliant people, and they are all the people of the year in the martial arts hall. And right now, this young man named Luo Xiao is extremely ordinary, is it possible that it will be ......

Luo Xiao replied with some surprise: "Lord Jianzheng, it's not that I don't want to insist, but - that thing inside won't hold on for a while!"

"What?!" Qin Qianqiu and Deacon Gu glanced at each other in surprise, and the latter immediately rushed to the testing room.

After only a few breaths, Deacon Gu slammed the door and streaked out, staring at Luo Xiao fixedly, and was surprised for a while before he could speak: "It's gone! That thing was destroyed!"

He had seen those two amazing and stunning people back then, and it was only because of his strong qi and blood that the evil people avoided it far away and did not dare to get close, so he left the customs in advance. But with the power of qi and blood, even a Xuanwu like him would not dare to say that he could do it! How did this young man do it? How powerful was his qi and blood?

Qin Qianqiu was also surprised, and couldn't help but enter the testing room to take a look, and when he came out, Luo Xiao's eyes were different, and his lips moved several times to ask something, but he didn't ask after all. Qin Qianqiu also knew a little about Luo Xiao's cultivation in the Martial Arts Hall, and knew that this young man was not outstanding before, and he had not shown an extraordinary posture until nearly a month, which naturally reminded him of the abnormal movements of Longyuan Mountain, and this young man was the first to arrive at the scene......

However, as Qin Qianqiu said to Pang Yuanfeng, there are clear trainings in the hall, disciples have experience, and teachers in the hall do not ask about the harvest, and do not peep into the opportunity. So, he finally held back.

Deacon Gu was amazed: "Luo ...... Luo Xiao, right, you're very good, work hard, five years...... Maybe it won't be five years, and the samurai are hopeful!"

Luo Xiao bowed and saluted: "By the deacon's auspicious words." Uh, is it possible to do a third test?"

Deacon Gu glanced at Qin Qianqiu, nodded and said, "Okay, come with me." ”

Luo Xiao followed Deacon Gu to another testing room, which was much larger than the previous two testing rooms, and there was also a training table arranged in it. When Luo Xiao saw a huge steel and wood puppet standing on the training platform, he immediately understood what the opponent of the third test was.

"This is a killing puppet, which is completely different from the training puppet you used to train in the martial arts hall. Deacon Gu led Luo Xiao to the training platform and let him take a closer look.

Luo Xiao looked at it carefully for a long time, this killing puppet was nearly a head taller than him, and his appearance was similar to that of a human, like a strong wrestler. The puppet's whole body is pitch black, only a pair of eyes are gray-white, it looks quite weird, and it is weak, I am afraid that the combat power will be reduced if I look at it a few more times.

Luo Xiao tapped with his fingers, and the tuk tuk echo proved that it was indeed made of steel and wood and not some strange metal, and it felt that this killing puppet seemed to be no different except that it was one size bigger than the training puppet. If I have to say something different, it is that there is an obvious sign of "Thousand Machines Academy" on its back, and it is clear that this is a genuine product.

Looking at Luo Xiao's puzzled gaze, Deacon Gu smiled: "From the outside, it is indeed no different. This is where this killing puppet is really different from the puppet of the Dao Training. ”

Deacon Gu turned behind the Killing Dao puppet and pressed it on the back of his head, and a panel rose up, revealing a dark grid. Deacon Gu took out a box from his arms, which was the size of a pigeon's egg and had a spirit stone with faint aura fluctuations.

Spirit stones are extremely rare resources in a place like the Heavenly Realm, and there are strict regulations and procedures for the application and use of each spirit stone in the Xiuwu Hall. This piece in the hand of the ancient deacon is a low-grade spirit stone, and it has been used many times, and there is not much spiritual energy left in it, but the ancient deacon is a precious look, carefully pressed the spirit stone into the dark grid, and the ground clicked, the dark grid sank, and the panel recovered.

At this time, Luo Xiao noticed an amazing phenomenon - the original gray-white pupils of the killing puppet actually lit up with two dark red, like the finishing touch, and the cold puppet actually revealed a fierce killing intent. At this moment, it was as if the puppet was no longer dead, but alive.

Deacon Gu smiled and said, "It seems that you understand, the difference between the two is that the Dao Puppet is a dead thing, at best it is only a high-level sandbag, while the Killing Dao Puppet is a living thing - at least until the energy of the lower grade spirit stone is exhausted, it is a living thing that can exert the strength of a fifth-order martial artist." ”

At this time, Qin Qianqiu walked over with his hand in his hand and said: "The rules are very simple, go to the training platform to fight against the killing puppet, and if you are not knocked off the stage within half a moment, you will be considered to pass." ”

Luo Xiao understood, according to Deacon Gu's words, this Dao Killing Puppet had the strength of a fifth-order martial artist, if he could persist for half a moment undefeated, it would mean that the Ten Absolute Hands he had practiced had reached a small level.

Luo Xiao nodded, and saluted Qin Qianqiu and Deacon Gu, and when Deacon Gu turned around and stepped down, Luo Xiao suddenly asked more: "How long can the energy of that lower-grade spirit stone be used?"

Deacon Gu looked back and smiled: "Half a moment." ”

The corners of Luo Xiao's mouth twitched, so that's it.

Deacon Gu said, "You can start", and then walked off the training platform and watched side by side with Qin Qianqiu.

Qin Qianqiu knew that Deacon Gu had been in charge of the fourth floor of the Ascending Dragon Tower for many years, and his eyesight was good, so he asked, "Old Gu, do you think this little guy can defeat the Killing Dao Puppet within the time limit?"

Deacon Gu thought for a while and said, "The Ten Absolute Scattered Hands are mainly based on grappling and anti-joints, which are fierce and fierce, and they are superior martial arts. However, this set of martial arts is just ineffective against the Killing Dao Puppet. So, it's impossible to beat, but judging by the previous performance, it should be possible to hold on for half a moment. ”

Qin Qianqiu bowed slightly, knowing that Deacon Gu had analyzed it well, he had read Luo Xiao's information, and knew that he had cracked a Taoist puppet with one blow. However, as Gu Zhi said beforehand, the Dao puppet is just a dead thing, while the Dao Killing puppet is a living thing, and it is a killing puppet with the strength of a fifth-order martial artist!

Deacon Gu suddenly said, "Look, he made a move." ”

On the training platform, the Killing Dao puppet took a mechanical step, clicking and clogging.

Luo Xiao's body was light and agile and slowly circled, his eyes were like lightning constantly searching for the weakness of the killing puppet, and when his gaze fell on his lower limbs, he suddenly lit up. After all, the killing puppet is not a living person, its flexibility is not as good as that of a real person, and its balance is also poor, so its lower limbs are extremely thick, and its two big feet are about the size of a basin, so that it can support its huge body.

The next moment, Luo Xiao walked like a meteor, as fast as thunder, and just slammed into the killing puppet.

Qin Qianqiu and Deacon Gu were stunned, how could they have expected Luo Xiao to be so violent, or head iron, with a short blow and a long blow, using flesh and blood to collide with an inanimate body!

At the moment when Luo Xiao came into contact with the Killing Dao Puppet, Luo Xiao raised his foot, stomped down, and then rotated inward-click! The Killing Dao Puppet's ironwood giant foot was torn apart, and the entire giant body suddenly lost its balance, and was hit hard by Luo Xiao, flying out of the training platform and falling off the training platform.

Luo Xiao's collision was certainly fierce, but it obviously didn't have much impact on the killing puppet that added iron wood to build its upper body, and it wanted to stand up with both hands and give Luo Xiao a ruthless blow. However, as soon as I held it up, I fell, and when I got up again, I fell down, and I lost a big foot board, and I couldn't support it anyway.

Ten of the first to scatter the toe grinding!

Luo Xiao stared at the killing puppet for ten breaths, and confirmed that this big guy really couldn't stand up, so he turned around and bowed: "Lord Supervisor, Lord Deacon, disciple Luo Xiao, fortunately not dishonored." ”
