Today is the day when Duan Yun and Huan Yin agreed on the expiration of the one-year period, and it is also the day when Huan Yin will set off to study at Yijian Peak.

Today's scene is somewhat similar to when he went to Yijian Peak to participate in the martial arts, Huan Yin didn't expect that he would always be inextricably linked with Yijian Peak, so he went there again and again.

"Yin'er, your progress has been so rapid this year, and I am also surprised by my teacher. It seems that the way of forging swords that my Sword Pavilion has explored based on the ancestor "Infinite Sword" is indeed extraordinary. Your understanding of "Boundless Sword" is deeper than anyone else's, so after you go to Yijian Peak, you can't stop studying "Boundless Sword" for a day. Duan Yun looked at Huan Yin, who was a little haggard, and admonished.

This year, Huan Yin spent too much energy learning to forge swords, and rarely stopped to rest, which made his whole mental state much worse than before.

"However, the sword forging method of Yijian Peak is broad and profound, and their selection test is recognized by Kyushu colleagues as extremely strict, if you want to pass the selection test of Yijian Peak, in the next year, you must study harder in Yijian Peak. Especially for the control of flames, as a mortal, the only thing that can teach you is the furnace fire, and as for the other flames, you can only go to Yijian Peak to learn. I hope that in a year, you can stand in front of the teacher again as an instrument master, your heart is stronger than gold, and you will definitely succeed!" Duan Yun patted his apprentice, who was a year older, on the shoulder, word by word.

Huan Yin knelt down towards Duan Yun and kowtowed three times. This year, his master, with the body of a mortal, was almost sleepless like him, teaching him the way of forging swords all day long, which made Duan Yun's head already hang silver threads.

This time to go to Yijian Peak, Huan Yin didn't know if he could come back again. Because if he fails in the selection test, he will have to abandon his cultivation and return to the mundane, in that case, his fate with Duan Yun will end here.

"Master, if the apprentice is fortunate enough to become an instrumentalist, he will definitely come back to repay your kindness. If my strength is insufficient, Gao Shan, Xiaotian, and Xianyue, you must cultivate diligently, carry forward my Sword Pavilion lineage in the future, and even more filial piety to the elders of the Sword Pavilion, do you know?" Huan Yin looked at his three junior brothers and sisters reluctantly, perhaps, this was the last time he spoke to them as a senior brother.

Gao Shan nodded heavily, his eyes already a little ruddy. He knew what Huan was doing because of this, and he also knew how difficult it was for Huan to face this time.

"Senior brother, do you have to go?" Li Xianyue's eyes were already filled with tears, this girl who was as cold as frost seemed to be able to dissolve her cold heart only because of Huan Yin.

Huan Yin took a few steps forward, wiped away his tears for Xiao Tian, who couldn't stop crying, and then said to all the people in front of him: "My generation of monks, I am cultivating the Dao Heart! Senior brother, I am here to participate in the selection test and to preach the Dao! If I fail, then I have chosen the wrong path, and it is natural that I will no longer cultivate the Tao in this life." If I succeed, then I will have my own way of mind and my own way!"

"Chaowen said, it's okay to die at night! Senior brother, I fight for my own way, and I am fearless!" Huan Yin looked resolute.

"Okay, this is worthy of my sword pavilion bloody man!Huan Yin, Uncle Shi is here, waiting for you to come back!" Ye Qingyou walked out of the pavilion at some point, and her always calm face also showed some excitement at this moment.

Huan Yin once again took a deep look at all the people in front of him, he was afraid that if he really became a mortal in the future, he would forget these faces closest to him. Then he bowed deeply to the crowd and turned to leave.

......

The first order of Yijian Peak is also where Huan Yin lived when he participated in the newcomer martial arts, and this time Huan Yin came to Yijian Peak and still lived here. However, this time, he lived here as an "outsider to participate in the test and practice".

Yijian Peak began to prepare for the selection of instrumenters as early as half a year ago, and according to the rules, Yijianfeng will also send some sword-casting masters from that moment onwards to conduct intensive training and cultivation of the participating instrumental cultivators in the sect, so as to ensure that more instrumental cultivators can be successfully promoted to instrumental masters in the selection examination.

Huan Yin came here to listen to the explanations of these masters, so that he could be further improved. And there were countless scattered cultivators and other sect monks who had the same idea as Huan Yin, so Yijian Feng arranged for them to live in the first order, and they all gave them a title, which was "Outside Participating in the Loose Cultivation".

The first order of Yijian Peak was already a very familiar place to Huan Yin, because Huan Yin knew the first-order steward disciple and had a good relationship, so he was arranged to live in a separate courtyard. For a "foreign participant in the casual practice" like him, this is already a very good treatment, you must know that some people even share a room with several people.

After Huan Yin cleaned up a few times, he sat down, took out a book, and began to flip through it. This is his daily homework, in the past year, he has not stopped, and when he reaches Yijian Peak, he will naturally not stop.

Huan Yin plans to go to see the lectures of the masters early tomorrow morning, and then try to see if he can borrow some classics from Yijian Peak. Of course, he also asked if there was any way he could actually practice it.

"Knock knock!" In the evening, Huan Yin's courtyard door rang, waking up Huan Yin, who was immersed in the classics.

Huan Yin stood up and walked out of the room. The people outside probably heard the sound in the courtyard and shouted: "Fellow practitioner Ji Cangqiong asks to see you!"

Huan Yin thought to himself that someone would visit him on the first day he came here, but he didn't know why. He opened the door and saw three people standing outside, two men and one woman, dressed differently.

The middle-aged man in the middle was stunned when he saw that it was only a teenager who opened the door, and he looked like he was only twelve or thirteen years old. However, he quickly reacted, and bowed to Huan Yin with a fist: "In the sky next season, it is the leader of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance who came to Yijian Peak to take the exam, and today I see a new person in this courtyard, it must be Your Excellency." ”

Huan Yin glanced at the three people in front of him, and found that he couldn't see through the cultivation of any of them, and his heart tightened slightly, but his face did not change: "In Xia Huan Yin, I really only came here today, may I ask a few fellow practitioners for my advice?"

Ji Cangqiong whispered: "Little Brother Huan, can you make it convenient to go to your courtyard to talk?"

Huan Yin looked at the three people in front of him, thinking that if these three people had bad intentions, he would probably die a long time ago, and he didn't need to wait until he entered the courtyard to do anything, so he made a gesture of invitation and led the three people in.

In Huan Yin's courtyard, there was a square table made of stone, and there were four stone benches next to the table, and after Huan Yin invited the three of them into the courtyard, the four of them sat there.

"Little Brother Huan, please forgive me for taking the liberty of disturbing me. In the next season, the people of Jizhou are here to participate in the selection of the instrument master of Yijian Peak. Now, thanks to the love of all fellow practitioners, I am the leader of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance. After Ji Cangqiong sat down, he solemnly introduced himself again.

"In Xia Liang Bin, this is my sister Liang Xin, we are from Liangzhou, and we also came to participate in the selection of appraisers. In normal times, we are responsible for helping the alliance leader with some chores. After Ji Cangqiong's introduction, another man introduced himself and another woman.

Huan Yin saw that Ji Cangqiong's clothes were really in the style of Jizhou, and Liang Bin did speak with a Liangzhou accent, knowing that their words were true, so he also spoke: "In Xia Huanyin, the new generation of disciples of the Infinite Sect, the purpose of coming here is the same as the three initiates. I wonder why the three of them are here today?"

"Junior Brother Huan, have you ever heard of the 'Scattered Cultivation Alliance'?" Ji Cangqiong asked rhetorically.

Huan Yin shook his head: "I don't know." ”

Ji Cangqiong's face showed a hint of surprise: "It seems that Junior Brother Huan doesn't understand the rules of Yijian Peak, why don't you explain it to Junior Brother Huan first?"

Huan Yin bowed to Ji Cangqiong: "Brother Ji, please speak." ”

"The selection of the instrument master of Yijian Peak has been a long time, and a year and a half before the selection test, there will be a sword casting master who will give a lecture on the instrument cultivation of the test, which is also an unwritten rule. It's just that, as more and more people like me participate in the exams and practice, there are fewer and fewer seats to listen to the master's lectures, and in the end, it is already overcrowded, and there is no room for more people to go to listen to the lectures. ”

Therefore, in order to ensure that the cultivators under his sect could hear the master's lectures, Yijian Feng ordered the masters sent by the sect not to teach to the outside world. It's just that in this way, we will have no way to study when we are doing so. ”

Huan Yin's brows were already slightly furrowed, he didn't expect that his situation was so bad, if he couldn't hear the master's lecture, what was the point of him coming?

Ji Cangqiong continued: "Later, there were some masters in the Yijian Peak Sect who were willing to come out privately to preach and teach because of greed for profit. However, if you want to listen to their classes, you need to pay a staggering number of spirit stones. ”

"I'm weak in casual cultivation, so I have no choice but to choose this way. It's just that these craftsmen who came out for profit not only collected more and more spirit stones, but also their level was uneven, and some were even inferior, and what they taught was simply worthless. ”

"I set up this Loose Cultivation Alliance with the intention of uniting all the 'foreign participants in the Loose Cultivation'. After all, there is great strength in numbers, and although we are under the roof of Yijian Peak, as long as we are united, we also have bargaining chips. As long as we can take the initiative, we can win as many better craftsmen as possible to teach us, and we can also reduce the spirit stone fees they charge. Therefore, every initiate who comes here, we have to unite him, and now more than 300 initiates who have come here have also joined our alliance. Brother Huan, we are here to hope that you can advance and retreat with us. After speaking, Ji Cangqiong bowed to Huan Yin.
