Chapter 17: Martial Arts Competition
The assessment of Dan Pavilion has ended.
Then comes the assessment of Wutang.
In the square, the middle-aged cultivator announced that the assessment of Wutang was about to begin.
"It is the hour of You, the assessment of Wutang is about to begin, please move to Wutang."
After Lin Wanqiu registered the information, she heard that the assessment of Wutang was about to begin, so she walked towards Wutang.
"Hehe, Master's assessment is about to begin, I still don't know Master's strength!"
"Master, I'm here."
Lin Wanqiu jumped and rushed to Wutang.
"There are two types of assessments, and you can choose freely."
"The first type is a talent test. Do you see the black line below? After the assessment begins, you will inject spiritual power into this pillar. As long as the height of the black line exceeds ten meters, you can enter our martial arts hall.
The second type is a ring battle. You need to sign up and then draw lots in turn. The first round is a melee, and then a one-on-one challenge. The last two hundred people will enter our martial arts hall."
"The rules have been introduced. Next, the first test will be carried out. Those who need to be tested line up and take the test in front of the test column in turn."
After listening to the rules, Li Sanrang was happy, "Two hundred people! The number of places for the ring battle has doubled this time, so I have more opportunities."
"With the number of places doubled, the number of registrations for the ring battle will also increase. Everyone wants to get a piece of the pie."
Just because the chief examiner said that the number of places for the ring battle promotion increased from 100 to 200.
The scene became lively. It was not until the chief examiner intervened that the scene was quiet.
Shen Lingfeng had never competed with Ye Chen in the alchemy talent test, and wanted to get back at Ye Chen in terms of cultivation talent.
"Brother Ye, how about we compete to see who has a higher cultivation talent?" Shen Lingfeng looked confident, as if he was sure to win.
"No need, we'll see how good we are in the ring."
Ye Chen didn't dare to accept the challenge, if the other party knew that he had a white talent, he would be laughed at.
"Okay, let's meet in the ring." Seeing Ye Chen's refusal, Shen Lingfeng looked unhappy.
"One meter! Next one."
"Three meters! Next one."
"Two meters! Next one."
......
The voice of the examiner floated above the martial arts hall, making everyone in the examination inexplicably nervous.
Finally, after a few meters, the first person who broke through ten meters was welcomed.
"Ten point five meters! Congratulations on passing the examination."
"Please register your information over there."
The examiner who registered the information waved to him, and he bowed slightly to express his gratitude.
Since he was the first person to pass the examination and enter the martial arts hall, he was so happy at this moment.
"Next!"
After the first person broke through ten meters, many others broke through ten meters, and some even broke through twenty meters. This can already be reserved in advance for core or personal disciples.
When Ye Chen saw someone break through twenty meters, he asked Shen Lingfeng with ill intentions, "Brother Shen, if you are asked to go, how many meters can you reach?"
But Shen Lingfeng still had a confident expression, "To be honest, Brother Ye, I will start at least thirty and there is no upper limit."
Ye Chen looked disdainful, "Tsk, everyone can brag, I also said that I can make this pillar explode."
"How about a competition?"
This aroused Ye Chen's desire to win, "Let's compete."
Although Ye Chen could not measure more than ten meters on this test column, and even one meter might not work, Ye Chen was an immortal emperor. If he released the emperor-level spiritual power without reservation, this test column would definitely explode.
The two were at the end of the line, and Ye Chen decided to sacrifice this test column to save face.
It was not his thing, he didn't feel bad, but the Alchemy Pavilion felt bad.
It costs a lot of spiritual stones to hire someone to repair, but for the Alchemy Pavilion, it is just a drop in the bucket.
After all, elixirs are very popular in the market.
Most alchemists are wealthy masters.
Although Ye Chen and his friends were at the end of the queue, people still came to line up one after another. In order not to hinder the others from taking the test, they had to move back.
After a while, the queue was obviously reduced a lot, and it was finally their turn to take the test.
Shen Lingfeng turned to Ye Chen and said, "Watch out, I want you to see what the top talent is."
Then, without looking back, he walked towards the test column to release his spiritual power.
A set of actions was done in one go, without any delay.
As the height of the black line continued to rise, five meters, ten meters, fifteen meters.
"It's still rising, no way, is it going to set a new record?"
"It's still rising, it's already twenty meters."
"Is it really going to break the record?"
"Twenty-five meters!"
"Thirty, thirty meters!"
The speed of the black line decreased, but the height was still rising.
Finally, the height stayed at forty-one meters.
"Forty-one meters, Lao Wang, is this true?"
"Lao Li, this is true, he really broke the record!"
"No, Brother Shen, are you serious? Then I won't give in."
Ye Chen walked to the test bench and released his imperial spiritual power.
At first, the test column did not react.
Shen Lingfeng, who was watching Ye Chen from the side, laughed.
"Hahahaha, Brother Ye, you can't do this."
Ye Chen ignored Shen Lingfeng, but continued to inject spiritual power into the test column.
"Little brother, don't force it."
Ye Chen also ignored him, but continued to inject spiritual power.
As spiritual power continued to be injected, a crack appeared on the test column.
Examiners Li Qing and Wang De looked at each other in amazement.
"Old Wang, do you think the quality of this column is good? How come there is a crack?"
"I don't know, how about we report it to the chief examiner?"
Just as they were discussing whether to report it, with a loud bang, the entire test column exploded.
And Shen Lingfeng, who was laughing at Ye Chen, just stayed where he was, showing an unbelievable expression.
"Brother Ye, are you serious? I want to see how you clean up this mess."
Ye Chen scratched his head.
Wang De and Li Qing quickly reported the situation to the chief examiner.
"What, you said the test column exploded, it's impossible, it has been tested for hundreds of years, how could it just happen to crack this year."
The chief examiner didn't believe what Wang De and Li Qing said.
But he turned around and thought that Wang De and Li Qing's character, they should not lie.
When he arrived at the test point, he saw that the test column was broken into several pieces and lying on the ground.
"Who did it?"
Before Ye Chen could react, Shen Lingfeng quickly pushed Ye Chen out, "He did it, everyone on the field can prove it."
Shen Lingfeng was still looking forward to the scene where the examiner scolded Ye Chen.
Unexpectedly, "Young man, welcome to join the Alchemy Pavilion Martial Hall, we will never treat you unfairly."
The examiner smiled happily when he thought that he had recruited a gifted monster.
The test results made the test column explode directly, and our Alchemy Pavilion was bound to win the first place in the three sects competition.
This way, he could get a promotion. When he thought of the promotion, the examiner's expression towards Ye Chen became more respectful.
I didn't care about Shen Lingfeng's score of 41 meters.
