Chapter 57: The Inner Trial
After the ranking of the outer gate of the Holy Sword Sect in the second half of the year was over, the next morning, the eighth guide informed those disciples who had obtained the top three hundred to go to the entrance of a dense and rich forest at the outer gate of the Holy Sword Sect.
Mu Wufeng's Huoxia Gang was at the end of the crowd, because the Huoxia Gang was reluctant to walk at the front of the line, so it was too conspicuous, so it was better to keep a low profile.
Corresponding to the people of the Huoxia Gang were the people of the Shengxuan Gang, and under the leadership of Suning Xuan, they walked at the forefront of the team.
Mu Wufeng walked silently at the back of the line, thoughtful, but didn't say a word, while Zhao Jinzhu, who was walking beside Mu Wufeng, looked angry, and muttered: "It's all to blame for this Suningxuan, so that Wan'er and Du Li can't come with us to participate in the inner gate trial, and you won't see him and the two of you scattering dog food in the inner gate in the future." ”
Ding Zitong on the side heard what Zhao Jinzhu said, and said with a slight smile: "Can we still pass this inner door trial, if you are reluctant to the two of them, you can also give up this qualification." ”
After hearing this, Zhao Jinzhu shook his head heavily, and then said with a sneer: "Give up the quota of the inner door trial, only that stupid woman Wan'er can do it, if we enter the inner door a year in advance, when the two of them enter the inner door, it will be good to have a response." ”
Mu Wufeng, who was standing next to Ding Zitong, heard what Zhao Jinzhu said, his body trembled slightly, and then his eyes showed a hint of fierceness, and he looked at Su Ningxuan who was walking in front of everyone, obviously Mu Wufeng was stimulated by Zhao Jinzhu's words, if it weren't for the birth of this Suning Xuan, Wan'er and Du Li would not have lost that place.
And Ding Zitong also felt the slight tremor of Mu Wufeng's body, stretched out his jade hand, held Mu Wufeng's wrist tightly, and slowly wrote some words on Mu Wufeng's hand, which seemed to have become a unique way of communication between Mu Wufeng and Ding Zitong before, even if the other party wrote quickly, they could also understand each other's meaning.
Ding Zitong wrote on Mu Wufeng's hand: "Don't worry, we will help Wan'er and Du Li out of this evil breath." ”
Mu Wufeng nodded slightly, although Ding Zitong didn't speak, it made Mu Wufeng's heart feel better.
Within half an hour, the Holy Sword Sect and his party had arrived at the entrance of the forest that the Eight Guides had notified them.
Looking into the depths of the forest from the entrance, they couldn't see anything inside at all, and they could faintly hear some strange sounds coming from inside, which intensified the fear of the people of the Holy Sword Sect standing at the entrance of the forest, because they didn't know what terrible things were in this strange forest.
People are full of fear of the unknown, including those swordsmen who have been cultivating for some years.
Seeing everyone's curious and fearful expressions, the eight guides on the side said, "This is the location of your inner gate trial, the outer gate beast forest. ”
The Outer Gate Beast Forest, as the name suggests, is a trial ground for the outer gate of the Holy Sword Sect to provide a place for the outer disciples to hone and screen talents when they are about to enter the inner gate.
The eighth guide paused and said, "In this outer gate beast forest, the strongest sword beast has just advanced to the early stage of the second rank two days ago. ”
When everyone heard that this outer gate beast forest actually had a second-grade early-stage sword beast, they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat behind their backs, and even Mu Wufeng frowned, because even if this second-grade early-stage sword beast was him, he didn't have a two-percent chance of defeating, not only because of the gap in the level of sword qi cultivation, but also because the bodies of these sword beasts were very hard, and it was difficult to cause substantial damage to them.
Although the first-grade peak sword beast is equivalent to the level of the second-grade great sword master, because the promotion of the sword beast is extremely difficult, and it is a large-grade promotion, it is even more difficult, but if you survive this level and break through a large level, then the strength will skyrocket, so the sword beast in the early stage of the second grade actually has the strength of a fifth-grade great sword master, which is also the reason why everyone in the Holy Sword Sect was so frightened when they heard about the second-grade sword beast.
Then the eighth guide said: "The rule of this inner gate trial is to enter this outer gate beast forest to kill the sword beasts, obtain their beast cores, and of course you can also form a team." The time of this inner door trial is one month, a month later, which team gets the most beast cores, which team wins, all the members of this team can successfully pass the inner door trial, and the team that does not win the first place will have to eliminate the corresponding number of people in their own team, and those who are eliminated will lose the opportunity to enter the inner door this year. ”
This inner door trial assesses not only the individual strength of the swordsman, but also the team cohesion of the swordsman, the whole team must gather together and do their best to strive for the first place, so as not to make that difficult and offending choice.
If a swordsman doesn't have team cohesion, then he can't let others die for him and fight with him. In this huge world, it is absolutely impossible for a person to cultivate to the pinnacle, and he will be more or less helped by others, so this is also a criterion for being able to enter the inner gate.
The eighth guide then glanced at Mu Wufeng and Su Ningxuan with a little meaning, and said to everyone: "In this outer gate beast forest, you can have a competition, you can snatch the beast core obtained by others, but the most important thing is not to hurt people's lives, remember." If any of you receive a deadly attack from the Sword Beast, you will be teleported out of the Outer Gate Beast Forest and will lose the opportunity to enter this year. ”
Then the Eighth Guide waved his hand, signaling that everyone in the Holy Sword Sect could enter this outer gate beast forest.
Mu Wufeng stood in place, did not enter the outer gate beast forest first, the Huoxia Gang on the side saw that Mu Wufeng did not move, they had to wait obediently in place, these Huoxia Gang people unconsciously have regarded Mu Wufeng as the leader of the Huoxia Gang, this may also be the benefit of Mu Wufeng giving up his achievements to help Du Li that day, the people of the Huoxia Gang saw Mu Wufeng protecting the people of the Huoxia Gang like this, and naturally followed Mu Wufeng willingly.
Su Ningxuan, who was at the front of the team, saw Mu Wufeng standing in place, smiled contemptuously, and muttered: "Are you afraid, this is just the beginning, when you enter this beast forest, you will feel what real fear is." ”
Then Su Ningxuan led the people of the Shengxuan Gang to take the lead in the Outer Gate Beast Forest, and once someone took the lead, the other people also followed into the Outer Gate Beast Forest.
The Huoxia Gang was the last to enter the Outer Gate Beast Forest, and Mu Wufeng naturally had his plans.
Although they were the last to enter the beast forest, they would also lose the opportunity to hunt the sword beasts, but the beast cores of these sword beasts could be fought for, Mu Wufeng was naturally not worried about falling behind in the number of beast cores, he just wanted to avoid the big team first, and led Huoxia to help everyone find a remote place to hunt the sword beasts first, and wait until the beast cores of the team accumulated, and then he would take them, which also saved a lot of effort.
This can't be blamed on Mu Wufeng's scheming, since he came to the Holy Sword Sect, he has experienced many conspiracies and intrigues, and has suffered a lot of losses, even if he doesn't count others, others will calculate him, so this is also Mu Wufeng's last resort.
Because of their Huoxia Gang's purpose this time, it is naturally to win the first place and bring all the people of the Huoxia Gang into the inner gate of the Holy Sword Sect, but if they meet the people of the Shengxuan Gang, especially Suningxuan, Mu Wufeng will definitely not show mercy, not only because of Du Li's incident, but also because of this Suningxuan who was going to take revenge on Mu Wufeng, Mu Wufeng will never let this hidden danger still exist in this world and threaten him at all times.
Mu Wufeng now has a strong premonition, the hatred between him and that Suning Xuan will be settled together in this outer gate beast forest, although the eighth guide especially emphasized that he must not hurt people's lives, but if Mu Wufeng really caught this opportunity, he would still not hesitate to kill that Suning Xuan, and no one could stop him.
Mu Wufeng looked at Su Ningxuan, who was gradually disappearing from his field of vision, and said indifferently with his eyes: "In this outer gate beast forest, only one of you and I can come out. ”
