37. Registration
Early the next morning, Xiaofei was pulled up by Huang Chongsheng. Xiao Fei, who was sleep-deprived, yawned and had breakfast with Yang Xunfu, and then set off with Huang Chongsheng to sign up.
"This seat is going to be ordered to privately explore the Sword Alliance today. Are the things you asked to prepare ready?" At the entrance of the official mansion, Xiao Fei turned his head sideways and said to Yang Shaodao, who was bent over.
"The lord's orders were naturally done perfectly. Yang Shaodao handed over a letter to Xiao Fei with a smiling face.
"Remember, don't reveal the whereabouts of this seat, you know?" Xiao Fei said with a deliberately gloomy face.
At that, Yang Shaodao nodded repeatedly, saying that it was sound, and Xiaofei and Huang Chongsheng swaggered away.
Since there were a total of 20 registration points in Wule City, the two decided to go to the nearest registration office on Xihuai Street.
"Brother Fei, what did you ask for from that Patrol Mansion?" Huang Chongsheng asked curiously on the way.
"Do you know how many people sign up for the sword test every year?" Xiao Fei asked rhetorically.
"Hey, you don't have to do it every time. If you have something to say, you can't say it directly, it's always a guess. Huang Chongsheng was very dissatisfied with the way he answered.
"Alright. I say. Xiao Fei shook the envelope and said, "Here is a letter of introduction from the government." ”
"Letter of introduction?do you still need this thing?" Although his father is the head of Nanze Sword, he himself doesn't care about what kind of sword is discussed, so it can be said that he is completely ignorant of this procedure.
"Of course, every year, there are hundreds of thousands of martial artists who want to compete in sword trials, but it is impossible to hold them all in martial arts, so it needs to be pre-judged in various places. Those who have a letter of introduction from an official of the fifth grade or above can be exempted from the examination and go directly to Wule to register. The little snitch smiled, "I told the Governor that I was going to spy on the Sword Alliance, and asked him to open a letter of introduction." It saves us trouble. ”
"A letter of introduction can be exempted from the test, and a letter of recommendation can be used to stay in a hotel. Huang Chongsheng shook his head and said.
"That's how things are. If all of them were pre-examined according to the standards of the Sword Alliance, I am afraid that no more than 10,000 people would be able to come to Wule. Xiao Fei said.
"It won't be so strict, I heard my father sign up every year to hear more than 100,000. Isn't it only one of the ten who can come to Wule?" Huang Chongsheng said in surprise.
"At the Fourth Sword Conference, the sword master personally trained, and those whose skills were inferior to the second rate were not allowed to participate in the swordsman qualification. "Xiao Fei already knows a lot about martial arts, let alone this kind of martial arts event.
"How to judge this second-rate, I don't have any concept. Huang Chongsheng said doubtfully.
Xiao Fei glanced at Huang Chongsheng in surprise and said, "You are still a famous disciple, and you don't even know about swords and martial arts." ”
"I said a long time ago that I don't care about the Sword Alliance, and it's not unusual to know about it. Huang Chongsheng really rarely asks about this kind of thing, and too much time is spent on drunken dreams and death.
"In the first martial arts competition, the sword saint divided the world's martial arts into five streams, the top of which is the super stream, there are only a few people in the world who can reach this state, as far as I know, it is the sword saint himself, the red leaf gang leader, the two sect masters of the Buddha and the devil, and so on. As for the last stream, that is, not entering the stream, in fact, it is just a comfort for those who are powerful in the crops, so there is no need to say more. Xiao Fei still explained slowly, "Now I'm talking about the first-to-third-rate realm." In each of these three streams, there are nine grades, which is the source of the famous three streams and nine grades. ”
"I see, it's so complicated. Huang Chongsheng thought for a while and said, "Then you think I belong to the next class now." ”
"You?" Xiao Fei glanced at him and said, "You have my three-point true yuan, although you only play about eight layers, but it is already extraordinary, and in terms of light internal force, it can reach the first-class middle and lower level." But your moves are scattered, there is no system, and you just rely on strange tricks to defeat the enemy, so on the whole, you can only reach the first-class middle and left. ”
"I'm still in the best of the best, that's good. Huang Chongsheng only noticed the word first-class in Xiaofei's words, and couldn't help but get carried away.
"What's there to be happy about, even Nazhuo girl has first-class and medium strength. And the Qin Yu who has fought with you is even more first-class. It's at least four or five notches higher than you. You have to understand that before you get my true yuan, you will only reach the third-rate top grade at most. Xiao Fei poured cold water on him.
"Jun Yao is half of my master, so it's so strange that she is better than me. As for comparing with that Qin Yu, I'm afraid it's hard for even you to deal with, so I'm even less comparable. But that's just for now, and it's still unknown what the future holds. Huang Chongsheng is still confident.
Xiao Fei didn't refute anymore, he knew that Huang Chongsheng was a genius who was rare to see for thousands of years, and although he had not yet reached the state of shining rivers and lakes, he would definitely shine after being tempered with his root and bone intelligence.
In the chat, the two came to Xihuai Street.
The front of the Confucius Temple at the end of Xihuai Street was already crowded with swordsmen and warriors who came to sign up, and the number of people would never be less than 1,000 at a glance. In the open space in front of the temple platform, a member of the Sword Alliance was swiftly collecting everyone's reference qualification certificates.
"Candidates, please follow me to the sword test ground in the eastern suburbs to take the exam. The seemingly weak and thin member of the Sword Debate bowed to everyone politely.
"Ah, if you want to go to the eastern suburbs, it will take more than 20 miles. Someone at the bottom immediately complained.
"That is, it will take an hour to run. Why don't we go to the fencing trial in the western suburbs? Someone chimed in. It is true that there are examination rooms around Wule, and the place of the competition is generally determined according to the principle of proximity.
"Everyone, please be quiet, this is the arrangement of the Congregation. And the journey won't take you much. The member patiently explained.
"It doesn't take time, it's an hour's journey. Someone immediately retorted.
The member smiled and said, "You may not know that if we can't make it to the competition venue within the time of a pillar of incense, we will be disqualified from the exam." ”
There was another uproar when I heard the rumors. But Xiao Fei and the others understand that this exam starts from here, the first item: light work!
Before the crowd could be quiet, the member drifted away. It seems to be walking lightly and slowly, but in fact, it is one step at a time, and it floats out more than a dozen zhang in an instant. I didn't expect him to have such a light skill.
Everyone no longer hesitated, and rushed up one after another.
With that member's kung fu, it is enough to reach the first-class realm, and many of the people in the examination team are only third-rate level relationship children. Therefore, after walking only two or three miles, hundreds of people fell at the end of the street.
"How is it, can you catch up?" asked Xiao Fei, who deliberately ran not fast or slow.
"Although I haven't practiced light skills much, it is not difficult to keep up with your skills. Huang Chongsheng said calmly.
"From now on, about half of the people will be eliminated from the competition venue. Alas, it doesn't matter, but it's still not okay if you don't have the strength. ”
Just as Xiao Fei was chatting casually, a figure quickly passed by him. It's staggering.
