Chapter 354: Their Respective Understandings

After He Zhi sat down, many of the outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect were still talking about it.

The main reason is that they are almost completely isolated from the outside world because of their participation in the inner door trial. In the inner gate trial, what happened during the trial could be transmitted to the outside, but it was difficult for the news from the outside to reach the ears of these Ten Thousand Sword Sect disciples who were participating in the trial.

Therefore, these Ten Thousand Swords Sect disciples didn't know what happened yesterday. Why would that Jin Dan real person from this sect say that He Zhi had already participated in this round of tests yesterday.

Could it be that yesterday this sect specially prepared a test for him He Zhi alone, so that he could fight with the two inner disciples alone?

Even if the sect is idle, it is impossible for an outsider who has entered the sect from the path of seeking immortals to arrange a few inner disciples to test it alone, right? Besides, isn't it always rumored that this guy may be a spy from the Beiyue Sword Sect? Why would the sect give him such preferential treatment?

A group of disciples from the outer sect of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect were discussing, but no one could say why.

Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian were still standing in the ring with expressionless faces. To be honest, the words of the Jindan real person just now, as well as the discussion of the following group of outer disciples, made Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian also very embarrassed.

It's just that the two of them are responsible for the second round of this year's internal selection, which has been decided a long time ago. So the two have nothing to complain about.

Fortunately, with that Jindan real person in charge, a group of outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect did not dare to be too presumptuous. Moreover, they have not forgotten that they still have a test to go on in front of them. The group of people talked for a while, and then they died down.

Next, a group of Golden Sword disciples came to the stage one by one to fight against Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian. He Zhi could obviously see that Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian were a little angry.

When fighting with those Golden Sword disciples, the two of them obviously had the intention of making those Golden Sword disciples suffer! Normally, these Golden Sword disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect could actually be regarded as quasi-"inner disciples" of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

Because as far as the normal situation is concerned, the elimination rate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect in the inner gate selection in previous years is actually far from reaching the level of this year. This year, because of He Zhi's role in disrupting the situation, the outer disciples who were able to break through from the first round and enter the second round can already be regarded as the best of the best.

Therefore, if in previous years, these outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect who were able to go to the second round should all be able to pass the test easily in this second round of selection! You must know that in normal years, every time the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is selected, there are about ten places to directly enter the inner gate. Moreover, in addition to these ten places, there are often four or five outer disciples who are favored by Jindan Zhenren and directly accepted into the disciples to become disciples.

Therefore, even when the mountain gate was not opened, the inner gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect would recruit about fifteen inner disciples every year. And the number of Golden Sword disciples who participate in the inner gate trial every year is between fifty and one hundred. It's about a 1 in 4 or 1 in 5 chance of being selected.

And what about this year, because this year is the idea of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect to open the mountain gate, there are not too many Golden Sword disciples who have signed up for the inner gate trial. This is not because there are fewer Golden Sword disciples in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect who have hope of entering the inner gate, but because those Golden Sword disciples who feel that they are not sure and have no hope have not signed up!

In other words, almost all of the people who dared to sign up for the selection of the inner sect of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect this year were Golden Sword disciples who felt that they had some strength.

But now, on this mountain, including Huangfu Tianchi, there are a total of eighteen or nineteen people!

In other words, if it were placed in a normal year, the outer disciples who were standing on this hill now, even the worst of them, would have the hope of rushing all the way to the end and having a chance to enter the inner gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect!

And this year, although He Zhi made a mess in the first round of selection, he eliminated a large number of many outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect who participated in the inner sect trial. However, the difficulty of the selection of the inner door of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect itself has not changed!

It is impossible that because He Zhi made a fuss, a large number of inner disciples who should have passed the selection were eliminated, causing the overall strength of the remaining inner disciples to rise. Now Shoujing Zhenren will increase the difficulty again, and he has to eliminate a few more from the remaining eighteen or nineteen people.

The difficulty of the Inner Gate Trial of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Shoujing Zhenren must have explained it to Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian in advance. Under normal circumstances, these Golden Sword disciples in front of them should be able to easily pass the battle with the two of them.

However, when He Zhi watched Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian fight with those outer disciples now, he was obviously suppressing them every time. At least the first three or four outer disciples who appeared were all sweaty from being killed by the two, and they were almost unbearable when they were about to admit defeat, and the two of them suddenly reduced the intensity of the battle.

Then, before those outer disciples could comfortably pass a few tricks, they often got a dry "pass" from the mouths of the two inner disciples.

Although these inner disciples also got the evaluation of passing, the process in the test really made them unhappy. After all, they are also first-class geniuses who think highly of themselves. Even if they thought they were inferior to Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian, they still felt that they had the strength to fight when the other party was burdened with many restrictions and had to fight them with shackles.

But the reality cruelly told them that even if the best of these inner doors had reined in more than half of their cultivation, they were not allowed to use the most powerful tricks in the inner gates, but when they fought together, they were still far from being opponents!

This is not without a blow to the self-confidence of these Golden Sword disciples who participated in the inner gate trial.

The Jin Dan real person sitting on the side couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw this scene. However, seeing the expressions of Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian, this Jin Dan real person didn't say anything in the end, and his opened eyes were closed again.

Obviously, this Jin Dan Zhenren could see that although Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian were indeed fighting with those outer disciples with anger, the two of them didn't just want to make things difficult for each other.

Obviously, the two of them hadn't been able to break free from that level of battle after fighting He Zhi yesterday. Therefore, when they fought with these outer disciples, although the two of them had consciously lowered their cultivation and controlled their moves, the rhythm of fighting with He Zhi was something they couldn't get rid of.

To put it bluntly, they are actually using the level of He Zhi, who is one realm lower, to measure these outer disciples. Although this may have dealt some blows to the self-confidence of those outer disciples, it was not an opportunity for Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian.

In the process of fighting with these outer disciples, they were actually constantly examining the battle with He Zhi yesterday. If they can get something out of it, then the slightest blow to these outer disciples can only be regarded as a completely acceptable price. Moreover, it was not without benefit to these outer disciples to feel the rhythm of the battle of the truly strong ones.

That's why the Jin Dan real person closed his eyes again, leaving Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian to play—even though what they did seemed to be a little beyond the scope of the inner door trial.

"How could this year's inner sect selection be so difficult! So many people were eliminated in the first round of trials, why is it still so difficult in this second round?" After the first four outer disciples were tested, there was some slight turmoil on the top of the mountain.

These outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect had also learned about the situation before participating in the inner sect selection. At least as far as they know, there was no such difficulty in the selection of the inner gate in previous years! Even when the mountain gate is opened once in 20 years, it should not be so difficult!

What the hell is going on this year? Many outer disciples were worried about it, and began to worry a little about their prospects in the inner sect selection.

And when these outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect were discussing one after another, He Zhi was watching it with relish.

Speaking of which, the level of this outer disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is really good. Although they couldn't beat Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian, almost everyone showed good strength when they appeared on the stage.

He Zhi thought about it a little and found that if he met any of them before entering the Dao, he was afraid that he would have to spend a lot of time trying to win!

However, after He Zhi entered the Tao with martial arts, he had indeed opened a huge gap with them in two or three months.

It was also from these disciples of the outer sect of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect that He Zhicai suddenly discovered that the level of "entering the Dao" was indeed indeed a chasm, as all the monks he had met so far had said!

Before entering the Dao, He Zhi could only say that he was slightly stronger than these Golden Sword disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. But in just a few months after entering the Dao, He Zhi was already able to defeat Wei Wuji and Ouyang Qian, who were their examiners, in a head-to-head confrontation!

Although there is also the factor that He Zhi is "entering the Tao with martial arts", and the natural changes are greater than those of normal monks who have entered the Dao, the huge changes that have occurred in his body still make He Zhi still have an incredible feeling in retrospect.

"Who's next?" Just as He Zhi was deep in thought, Wei Wuji shouted to everyone.

It turned out that after the four outer disciples who had been tested in front of them had been taught extremely badly, and all of them were able to pass the test, the remaining Golden Sword disciples were a little shocked. For a while, no one wanted to climb to the top of the mountain to be tested.

Seeing that these juniors and disciples of his own family actually looked a little timid, Wei Wuji suddenly became more and more displeased.

As soon as Wei Wuji frowned, a compelling sharp aura suddenly gushed out from his body, which made those outer disciples look at each other, and no one would go up to touch this moldy head.

However, these outer disciples naturally knew that the more they refused to fight, the more angry Wei Wuji became. The test may become more difficult later. Therefore, these outer disciples were also constantly making eye contact with each other, and everyone was anxiously urging others to hurry up and fight.

"I'll come!" Seeing that everyone was blaming each other, and no one was willing to stand up for the test, Huangfu Tianchi couldn't help laughing, pushed everyone away and walked out.

Unlike the other Golden Sword disciples who were bent on passing the final test and successfully entering the inner gate, Huangfu Tianchi didn't have much expectations for the results of his participation in the inner gate selection this time.

For Huangfu Tianchi, he was able to pass the first round of tests, and he came so far in this inner door trial, which in itself can already be regarded as an unexpected surprise!

Perhaps in the depths of Huangfu Tianchi's heart, he does still have one-ten-thousandth expectation, and he also hopes that he can break out of the encirclement and finally enter the inner door in a dignified manner.

However, compared to the other outer disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect around him, the pressure on Huangfu Tianchi was much less.

Victory is joyful, defeat is also happy. Huangfu Tianchi only felt that he was in such a mood now.

As long as you do your best and have a clear conscience, standing in front of Ouyang Qian, Huangfu Tianchi solemnly bowed his hand, and then drew his long sword and made a sword gesture.

Ouyang Qian was in a bad mood at this time, although she saw that Huangfu Tianchi was able to take the initiative to fight when everyone was unwilling to fight, and she still had a good impression of Huangfu Tianchi, but her face was still impatient.

"Come on. Ouyang Qian hooked her fingers at Huangfu Tianchi, and she didn't even draw her sword.

As an inner disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Ouyang Qian could certainly feel that the aura of Huangfu Tianchi was the weakest among this group of outer disciples, and he didn't even have the realm of pseudo-entry.

Therefore, Ouyang Qian was a little more careless in this situation.

But Huangfu Tianchi didn't care about Ouyang Qian. He was just doing his best in this test. Therefore, after Ouyang Qian's order, Huangfu Tianchi almost immediately showed his strongest trick!

It was a sword move that Huangfu Tianchi had been practicing hard for a long time, and he had mastered it extremely purely.

In the Ten Thousand Swords Sect's Ten Thousand Streams Returning Sect Sword Technique, there are a total of seven sword moves. The vast majority of the Golden Sword disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect could only master one of them. However, Huangfu Tianchi, as one of the few Golden Sword disciples who were the best at swordsmanship, had mastered the three sword moves a long time ago. And he once relied on these three sword moves to almost rush into the inner gate of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

Although Huangfu Tianchi fell short at that time, and his strength regressed for several years, as if he was in a slump, he never fell behind in these sword moves.

Moreover, after meeting He Zhi and learning the "Heavenly Trick" from He Zhi, Huangfu Tianchi combined his own comprehension and practiced a style of swordsmanship in the Wanliu Guizong swordsmanship!
