Shi Jielang said: "This first try-"

He looked at the crowd with a smile. Li Brown held his breath, and everyone also inhaled, and suddenly thought of how he looked when he first came to take the exam. At that time, when Master announced the rules of the exam, everyone was also afraid to come out.

"This first test, of course, is to test your sword qi. The first stage of sword cultivation requires the cultivator to have a good body, not to mention copper tendons and iron bones, first of all, there must be vitality. Everything has qi, and without qi you can't live. The so-called spirit and spirit, and the qi is strong. ”

He paused, still smiling at the crowd. Everyone still nodded.

Li Brown just looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

"So, what you have to do is to use your own qi to make the candle smoke into a row, as for whether it will be scattered or not, whether it can be coherent in one go, it depends on the strength of your own sword qi and your own indulgence. ”

More than a dozen rows of candles are lit in unison, bright and warm.

Li Brown sighed in his heart, this small kendo hall is really wealthy, and so many unusually material candles that are burning are really not something that ordinary people can afford. Immediately afterwards, two more protégés came with a large sieve cover that looked like jade, mud and pottery, and covered it on a wooden shelf, and all the candle smoke slowly dispersed through the countless sieve holes.

This large cover is made of hundred-year-old coarse flesh jade, and its temperature and activity are no different from those of the human body, and even the veins of its texture can be observed with the naked eye, just like the veins of a human being. If you feel it a little more closely, you can even feel the blood flowing slowly in its veins. These rare things in the kendo cultivation world are really not something that ordinary people can come into contact with, so they are also very careful and careful in the custody of these measuring instruments.

Everyone's heartbeat followed the fall of the hood even faster. This test of sword qi perception is actually more difficult than the test of pouring water from an empty bowl, because everyone's innate qi is different, and there are cases where the flow is large and small, the degree is strong or weak, or there are situations where the qi changes due to tension, and because of this, this is the first step that practitioners need to take. Only by accurately grasping one's own qi can one lay a solid foundation for the next practice.

Shi Jie turned his face to Li Brown and asked slowly, "Are you ready?"

Li Brown chin head.

"Go"

Li Brown walked firmly towards the thick flesh jade hood, took a deep breath, and then slowly spit it out again. All the people looked at him intently, tense to the extreme.

After staring at it for a long time, Li Brown finally stretched out his right hand gently towards it. This kind of coarse jade is extremely spiritual, and people's every move can be perceived and influenced.

Li Brown only felt that it was no different from touching ordinary people, and the temperature and feel were no different. His heart was beating fast. When his right hand touched the cover, the candle flame inside began to move. Li Brown was startled, and the flames jumped more and more. Everyone opened their mouths wide, neither making a sound nor daring to move, because the candle flame in the hood was swaying, and many people had already broken off their spiritual path here.

One after another, the flames slanted to the right. Li Brown didn't dare to breathe, so he hurriedly calmed down, relaxed a little, and saw that the row of flames was straightened again in an instant. Seeing this scene, Li Brown's heart finally stabilized, and he dared to continue to perceive it.

The flames on the shelves danced in an orderly manner, and the candle smoke on it began to gather thinly. First a small strand, then a few strands broke into a strand, then a large string, one after another, and finally the more they gathered, the more fruitful they became, gradually forming the size of a bronze mirror, like a bubbling fountain, flowing straight out.

Originally, the sieve hole of this large hood was divided into five rows, and the number of layers from the bottom to the top decreased from five layers to one, and the circumference width gradually increased from small to large. The bottom layer is the size of a bull's eye, and the top layer is the size of a copper mirror.

This test is qualified as long as the candle smoke passes through a sieve the size of the third cup. Most of the beginner disciples turned the candle smoke into three large bundles and passed through a sieve the size of a cup. And the record of the size of the bowl on the second layer is the best record of the entire Shanzuo Kendo Hall, and that person is Cui Lu.

All the disciples couldn't help but look in amazement, the person in front of them was the first person in the record. Even Shi Jie couldn't help but smile, firstly because this guy named Li Brown was really a talent that could be created, and secondly, because Cui Lu was so old-sighted that he was really a rare kendo master, and he couldn't help but secretly sigh that he was quite old.

After a long time, Li Brown slowly withdrew his hand, and all the candle flames began to fly again with light smoke.

Shi Jie said slowly: "This first trial is passed. ”

All the protégés looked at him in admiration, including the girl. But there was a person in the crowd standing proudly, showing a cold disdainful look, and his eyes contained too much unknown. Li Brown's eyes met him, and he was immediately startled, perhaps because the typhoid fever had not healed, and he sneezed fiercely.

The first test of the test was withdrawn. Li Brown walked to the front of the second test tool.

He saw that the crowd shook their heads at him, and was puzzled, thinking that something had gone wrong with him.

Shi Jie smiled: "Go back, be careful here." ”

Li Brown retreated to be careful.

He slowly raised his arms, palms down, and slowly flattened his fingers. He saw Shisuke start walking towards him with an empty bowl, and he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

The first bowl was placed on the back of Li Brown's left hand. Immediately afterwards, a Shudi long-nosed iron kettle was brought over. Li Brown was afraid that the bowl would fall, so he stared intently ahead.

At first, the brisk sound of running water gradually became dull and thick. Li Brown also felt a little heavy in his left arm.

Shi Jie brought a second bowl and put it on the back of Li Brown's right hand. If you start pouring water first. After the water was filled, Li Brown felt that his body was balanced.

The third bowl was placed two fingers apart from the palm of the left hand and filled with water. The fourth bowl, placed two fingers wide near the palm of his right hand, was also filled with water.

Li Brown felt a little unbearable. But he still managed to hold back the swelling in his arm and try to stay steady.

The fifth bowl is placed four fingers wide near the palm of the left hand and filled with water. The sixth bowl is placed four fingers apart from the palm of the right hand and filled with water.

After these six bowls were filled with water, Li Brown only felt that his arms were full of pigs, horses, cattle and sheep, and their weight doubled and sank all the time, and a wave of heat hit his arms up and down his flanks, and arched from his flanks to his head, and his upper body was hot.

Ishisuke began to bring the seventh bowl. Li Brown was still staring intently ahead, he felt that this big pot was like containing the Yellow River, and it couldn't be poured cleanly. He was on the verge of holding on. Although the upper body was still trying to maintain balance, and the arms were stiff to keep them from shaking, the legs were already under too much gravity and began to sore. He tried to stay calm, but at this moment, he became less and less calm.

Seeing Shi Jie and the seventh bowl coming to him, Li Brown shouted "Ahh
