In the midst of the uproar, the gong sounded.

A middle-aged man with a grim expression stood on the stone steps in the middle of the venue, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

His gaze swept over the nearly 100 teenagers who participated in the assessment.

The young man at the venue only felt that he was stared at by a pair of stern eyes, and he couldn't help but feel awe in his heart.

Only some of the top-notch disciples of the Spirit Academy looked like normal.

Looking at the cold middle-aged face, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but feel a little familiar.

Seeing the doubt in Zhou Yuan's eyes, Li Qingmei said in his ear: "That's Yuan Zhong, the elder of the inner courtyard, and also Yuan Fan's uncle. ”

Zhou Yuan frowned slightly, Yuan Fan also participated in this inner court assessment, it stands to reason that Yuan Zhong, as Yuan Fan's uncle, should avoid suspicion.

In this case, Yuan Zhong still has to preside over the assessment, what are the plans?

"The assessment begins, the first item, the strength assessment. ”

Yuan Zhong waved the command flag in his hand, and nine stone tripods fell down the steps, which were arranged in a row from small to large.

Among them, the smallest stone tripod also needs an adult man to hold, weighing a thousand catties!

And the largest stone tripod, it takes five people to hug it, and it is enough to have nine thousand catties!

"Everyone is only allowed to use true qi and physical power, and they are not allowed to borrow any magic weapons, elixirs, and talismans, and choose a stone tripod to climb the highest step as much as possible. ”

The words fell, and everyone's eyes shifted to the previously inconspicuous stone steps.

Looking at the heavy stone tripod and the forty-nine stone steps, the disciples of the Spirit Academy who participated in the assessment couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

"Follow the name of the report, and move forward in turn. Yuan Zhong said indifferently.

"The first one, Song Rui!"

"To. ”

A stocky young man stepped forward, shirtless, revealing his bare back and his muscles knotted together.

Song Rui took a deep breath, his cultivation of the seventh layer of qi refining had the power of seven thousand catties, but in the end, he walked in front of the fifth stone tripod weighing five thousand catties.

This assessment is not only as simple as lifting the stone tripod, but also holding the stone tripod to step on the steps.

This test is not only explosiveness, but also staying power.

Song Rui used his true qi, carried Shi Ding on his shoulder, his muscles bulged, and stepped up the stone steps step by step.

First-order, second-order, third-order......

After the fifteenth order, Song Rui began to struggle a little.

After the twenty-second order, Song Rui was out of breath, and every step was faltering, and it was extremely difficult to walk.

In the end, I had to put Shi Ding on the twenty-fifth stone step, and I didn't even have the strength to go down.

"Song Rui, the fifth stone tripod, ascended the twenty-fifth step. Yuan Zhong recorded the results on the roster with a blank face.

"Next, Zhuo Pengfei. ”

"General, this Song Rui can carry a five-thousand-pound stone tripod on the twenty-five stone steps at the age of fifteen, it seems that he is a refined martial artist, do you want to pull in the scale horse cavalry. In the stands, a black armor actually suggested.

General Feng, who was sitting in the stands, nodded: "Yes, you go to contact him after the assessment, and remember, you must respect his own choice." ”

"Yes, General. ”

Just as the two were talking, Zhuo Pengfei had already stepped forward.

In the end, under the same circumstance of choosing the fifth stone tripod, Zhuo Pengfei only climbed the fifteenth step, which was ten steps lower than Song Rui.

But Zhuo Pengfei was not discouraged, he did not refine martial arts like Song Rui, but was better at spells.

In the subsequent fighting session, he was confident that he would not lose to Song Rui.

In the blink of an eye, seventy or eighty disciples had completed the assessment, and the best performer was still Song Rui.

But what comes next is the real highlight.

Lin Caiwei, fifteen years old, is a man of the hour in the outer courtyard of the Spiritual Academy, and Li Qingmei has become one of the two pearls of the Spiritual Academy.

She looked at Li Qingmei, a flash of perseverance flashed in her eyes, and she turned to Zhou Yuan and said:

"Zhou Yuan, take a good look at the gap between us, the light eyebrows can't be dragged down by you anymore. ”

Zhou Yuan opened his mouth wide, and couldn't help but be a little confused, I was also shot while lying down?

Li frowned lightly and opened his mouth to speak, but finally shook his head and did not respond.

Lin Caiwei had already walked to the bottom of the steps, directly jumped over the first seven stone tripods, and walked in front of the eighth stone tripod.

The eighth stone tripod weighs 8,000 catties!

"Drink!"

Lin Caiwei released the thick true qi in her body, her hands were huge, and her slender figure looked even more petite under the stone ding.

In the stands, there was an uproar, and such a slender and petite girl actually lifted an eight-thousand-pound stone tripod.

The disciples of the Spirit Academy were also shocked, Lin Caiwei's natural strength was not weak, but everyone didn't expect that her strength was stronger than Song Rui, who was refining martial arts!

Lin Caiwei was born in a poor family, and she can only rely on her own talent and diligence to have this cultivation to enter the realm.

This makes her achievements even more commendable.

After stepping on the stone steps, Lin Caiwei did not walk fast, but she was extremely steady, and every step she took consumed a large amount of true qi in her body.

But Lin Caiwei relied on her perseverance to put the stone tripod on the forty-ninth stone step.

It was also the first person to set foot on the top of the stone steps.

"Senior Sister Cai Wei is too powerful, a woman, her physical strength is naturally inferior to that of a man, and she can actually come this far. ”

"And unlike Song Rui's refined martial arts, Senior Sister Cai Wei is best at swordsmanship!"

......

Whether it was in the stands or among the disciples of the Spirit Academy who participated in the assessment, they did not hesitate to praise Lin Caiwei.

Even, even the elder Yuan Zhong, the head of the inner courtyard, who had always presided over the assessment with an indifferent face, nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, after entering the inner courtyard, you can consider worshipping under the old man's door." ”

"I'm dripping for a day, and so soon, there are elders who want to accept Senior Sister Cai Wei as a disciple. ”

"Don't be stupid, that's Senior Sister Caiwei, before the assessment, the elders sent their subordinates to pass on their kindness and want to take her into the door. ”

“......”

Even General Feng, who was sitting in the stands, exclaimed on his face: "Outstanding talent, what is more valuable is perseverance, although she is a woman, women are not allowed to have eyebrows!"

Beside him, the knight asked, "General, do you want to find a way to pull in our scaly cavalry?"

There was a hint of intent on General Feng's face, but after thinking about it, he still shook his head: "Such an excellent disciple will definitely be valued by the Spirit Academy, and in another two years, he may become a true disciple." ”

Although the scale cavalry he created was known as the patron saint of the White City, he knew that the Spiritual Courtyard was the foundation of the White City.

Within the White City, no one can snatch people from the head of the inner court.

Not even he and the lord of the city.

After Lin Caiwei walked down the stone steps, the true qi in her body was almost exhausted, but she still walked in front of Zhou Yuan with a burning gaze:

"I saw Zhou Yuan, this is my current strength. ”

"Qingmei's talent is no less than mine, I really can't bear to watch her being dragged down by you. ”

"You are at the fourth level of qi refining, why did you pass the assessment of the inner court, and why did you drag down your eyebrows?"
