Chapter 206: Within two breaths, show strength and be vigilant
This time, two Yin-walking monks were invited to participate in the genius assessment.
Moreover, Chen Yushu knew both of the people invited this time.
He had previously traveled with him on a merchant ship to Tianling County, and had also entered the Huangshan Inheritance Cliff with him: Mo Lao of the Mo family and Yan Xu, the father of the Yan family.
Two people appeared one after another and were invited to sit in the upper seats.
It is worth mentioning that Liu Ziming, the head of the Liu family, was also in that seat.
Looking at the ranking, although it is slightly higher than the other two, it is not much.
From this we can see that the status of the Yin-walking monks in Qinghe County is indeed extremely high.
After all, the two of them are at best only at the level of three incense sticks.
And he has already entered the Tao!
However, he also knew that so-called status was not absolutely based on strength and influence, which was the foundation.
At this time, he also learned that the Mo family was a family of Yin-walking, and had considerable influence in Qinghe County. Almost all the Yin-walking cultivators, big and small, had close ties with them.
Therefore, the family status is extremely high.
As for Yan Xu, the strict father, although his family power was relatively small, Yan Xu's father accepted a good apprentice, Li Feng, the captain of the Zhenyin Division, who was a real strong man at the entry level.
Although he did not hold an office in Qinghe County, he would visit the Yan family almost every year.
Therefore, to a certain extent, its status is even higher than that of the Mo family.
And this is why all major forces respect it so much.
In addition, there were many other people at the scene, most of whom were influential figures in Qinghe County.
However, Chen Yushu didn't know most of them and didn't care. Instead, he followed the arrangements and stood in the square.
“This genius assessment is very simple.
The first test is about speed.
The second game is a test of strength.
The third game is a test of strength.
Speed and power are secondary, strength is the most important.
So what really determines the ranking is strength.
As for the speed, it is considered qualified only if it exceeds 100 meters in three breaths. If it fails, the ranking qualification will be automatically lost.
The required strength is three thousand pounds. As long as you can lift a three thousand pound tripod, you will pass.
These are the basics.
Only after passing can you participate in subsequent competitions.
First of all, there was a big melee.
The final ten spots will be decided.
Only when ten spots appear will one be arranged for a one-on-one competition.
Finally the final ranking will be determined.
Of course, the higher the ranking, the greater the rewards.
The first one among them is a unique martial art, the Fist of Light, which is an extremely powerful martial art passed down from the Church of Light a hundred years ago.
The second prize is the magical Liefeng Sword, which was the sword of the once famous hero Liefeng.
Unfortunately, Hero Liefeng died in the Devil's Cave due to an accident, but his sword was found and is now taken out as a reward for the second place.
The third one is a top-grade True Spirit Pill, which is extremely effective in repairing and improving a warrior's qi, blood, and internal strength. One pill can save a warrior half a month of training time.
A bottle of ten pills can at least reduce a warrior's hard training by half a year..."
As one person stood up and explained the corresponding rules and rewards, the group of people became visibly excited.
Some people showed a look of depression on their faces.
The rules are clear.
But the difficulty is not small.
Running a hundred meters within three breaths... This is not an easy task for a warrior in the inner realm.
This can only be achieved if one practices a light-weight martial art to a small level of success.
There were more than 50 people participating in this talent assessment, and of course there were some who were just filling in the numbers. As the saying goes, family members know their own business, so naturally they didn't have that much confidence to pass the preliminary assessment.
But once the competition started, they had no choice but to withdraw.
Soon after a greeting, the young geniuses began to take the test one after another.
The first one was a young warrior who claimed to be a disciple of the Iron Fist Martial Arts School. His name was Zhou Ding. He first bowed to the many important figures above him, and then he gathered his strength and performed the Iron Eagle Flying Step of the Iron Fist Martial Arts School.
He opened his hands like two wings and rushed across quickly. As his strength surged, he leaped slightly with almost every step, as if there was a special force pulling him, trying to fly into the sky, and his speed was not slow.
in this way.
A distance of a hundred meters passed in the blink of an eye.
Four breaths.
Countless people shook their heads.
Although he was extremely fast, he could only travel a hundred meters in three breaths, so he naturally failed to pass.
The rules of this genius assessment are here. If the speed is no more than three breaths, then no matter how strong the power is or how terrifying the strength is, it will be unqualified and will not be eligible to participate in the next stage of the competition.
Then, the second, and the third.
A hundred meters in three breaths is indeed a very difficult task for many martial artists.
Several people in succession failed to pass.
However, it is not difficult to hear from other people's discussions that these people are from small sects and small forces, and their reputation is not well-known. In the eyes of many people, this is also a very normal thing.
It wasn't until the fourth one that one person passed.
Qian Ling from the Qian family.
Although she was a petite woman, she was extremely fast, like a gust of wind, passing by in a flash.
He successfully covered the distance of 100 meters within three breaths.
The second person who passed was the fifth one. He was a genius from a small family. He was handsome and had a scholarly air. He barely passed within three breaths.
Then came Du Wenxin, who used the Instant Step technique.
As he took a step forward, a surge of power immediately emanated from his legs and feet, which invisibly more than doubled the distance he crossed. The opponent had obviously already mastered the instant step technique to a small degree of success, and his speed was extremely fast. He also rushed over within three breaths.
One by one, the warriors quickly passed the distance of 100 meters.
Some succeeded within three breaths and passed the assessment, while others took more than three breaths. Even if they only barely exceeded it, they were still ruthlessly defeated and had no chance to continue participating in the assessment.
Naturally, he would not be called a genius.
Soon, more than a dozen warriors passed the test.
Among them, there were several people whose movement speed was indeed extraordinary, and they should have reached the state of great success. They passed the test in almost two breaths.
Chen Yushu was just listening quietly, but he knew that these people were all talented people from various major forces, and they had already become famous before taking the assessment.
In particular, Qian Huaguang from the Qian family was not only fast, but also had a slightly graceful figure. He was the only warrior present who could cover a distance of 100 meters within two breaths.
His appearance obviously caused a small sensation at the scene, and there was endless sound of admiration.
Chen Yushu was ranked slightly behind.
After waiting for a while, it was his turn.
Standing at the starting point, Chen Yushu did not hesitate and directly used the Eight Steps to Chase the Cicada.
One step was two or three feet, and in just eight steps, he almost reached the end. Then he jumped and crossed over.
Apart from the fact that his posture was not very graceful, his speed was also astonishingly fast.
"Within two breaths."
Someone spoke directly.
Suddenly, the scene was silent.
Many people showed surprise in their eyes.
Because this was indeed the second warrior besides Qian Huaguang who entered within two breaths.
There were even many people who vaguely noticed that his speed was actually slightly faster than Qian Huaguang's.
It’s just that how much faster it is, it’s impossible to measure because the time unit is too small.
"Brother, do you still think that Wei Ming can really beat him?"
On the Liu family side, Liu Qingyan saw this and a smile suddenly appeared on her face. Then she looked at the eldest son Liu Jiandong with a teasing look on her face and continued, "As for Wei Ming, I know him too.
Although he's strong, his agility is too poor. If he really wants to participate in this genius assessment, he probably won't even be able to pass the first level, right? "
"snort.
What’s the point of just being fast?
The genius assessment is not only about speed, but also strength.
The most important thing is strength."
Liu Jiandong snorted coldly and said.
Naturally, he was unwilling to acknowledge Chen Yushu's strength, otherwise wouldn't it prove that what he had just said was all nonsense?
"Old Yan, do you think this person looks familiar?"
At this moment, Mr. Mo from the Mo family, who was watching the two Yin-walking monks on the high platform, suddenly spoke.
"Now that you mention it, he does look familiar."
Upon hearing this, Yan Xu, the strict father, also frowned.
"Isn't it a bit like the one on the Heritage Cliff of Huangshan..."
Mo Lao hesitated, and Yan Xu immediately nodded and said, "It's him.
Remember I mentioned to you before that the man was from Huangshan who was on the same merchant ship with us, and he was probably from our place.
I didn't expect it to be true.
However, how could he participate in a genius assessment of this level?
In terms of Yin power, he is much more powerful than the two of us old guys."
“I don’t know.
However, I think people like him must have their own reasons for doing things, so it’s best for us not to disturb them.”
Mr. Mo first shook his head, then quickly spoke.
"really.
Judging from his previous performance in the Huangshan inheritance cliff, he is very likely to have passed the sixth or even seventh level inheritance test, and his future achievements will definitely not be low.
At the very least, he is at the Dao Entry Realm or above.
It’s better not to disturb too much.”
Yan Xu on the side also nodded, but his eyes moved around, with some small thoughts in his mind.
Even if it's not a good idea to disturb them now, it may not be the case later.
As for the other party's current identity, if the other party doesn't say it, he will never ask too much.
The same was true for Mr. Mo on the other side.
They just didn't talk to each other.
As Chen Yushu completed the assessment, the first round of assessment was soon completed.
“Speed done is power.
Everyone takes turns stepping forward to hold the tripod above their heads. If they can hold it for three breaths, they'll pass."
Then a voice spoke.
A group of warriors who passed the speed test stepped forward one after another.
Compared with speed and strength, the difficulty is actually lower.
Even this big tripod weighs three thousand pounds.
But who among the cultivators who have reached the middle or late stages of inner cultivation is without strength? Under the encouragement of strength, gathering this large cauldron is naturally not a problem.
Therefore, out of the thirty people who passed the first round of assessment, not a single one was eliminated.
No one was surprised by this.
"Next, the melee begins.
Everyone was standing on the stage, with only ten people left.
The last ten people will compete again."
Following the host's order.
Thirty people jumped onto the huge arena one after another.
During the battle, everyone was only allowed to take the standard weapons that had been prepared on the side, and they were not sharpened.
But in the hands of a warrior, it is still lethal.
Chen Yushu picked up a long knife.
On the battlefield, everyone tacitly stood beside someone they were familiar with.
Perhaps because of his previous behavior, Du Wenxin from the Liu family's main branch also came to Chen Yushu's side at some point.
"Brother Chen, although there is a fierce struggle between the First House and your Third House, we are all from the Liu Family after all, and we are all apprentices of the Liu Family. We must cooperate with each other in order to occupy the top ten positions.
If we stay in the top ten, we will also maintain our wealth and glory.
At least in the Liu family, things will never be the same again."
Seeing Chen Yushu looking at him, Du Wenxin quickly lowered his voice and spoke.
"Yeah?"
Chen Yushu did not comment, but did not refuse the other party from approaching.
His eyes casually looked in other directions.
The strongest is naturally the Qian family.
The three people from the Qian family were all recognized as being powerful and had become famous long before. Now the three of them stood still, back to back with each other, forming a simple three-in-one formation that was enough to deal with attacks from enemies from any direction.
Beside them, there were a few people approaching, but their eyes were fixed on other people. It was obvious that they were there to protect them.
This is actually a very normal thing.
As the strongest force in the local area, the Qian family naturally has several forces and families that have defected to it.
If the people from these powerful families want to develop smoothly in Qinghe County, they have to compromise on many things. The rules of the fight are chaotic, so they naturally have to guard against being targeted. And they are there to protect them.
In addition to the Qian family, there are also three people from the Shanhe Gang, plus two people from the Tiequan Gang. When they join forces, they are also a formidable force.
The Taixuan Sect and the Zou Family were relatively close, so naturally the two forces united inexplicably.
Seeing this, Chen Yushu couldn't help but frown slightly.
Because he discovered that the Liu family was isolated and had no other allies at all.
In other words, if the two of them were targeted, they would inevitably be attacked by other forces.
Of course, in addition to them, there are some who are also fighting alone. They all look around vigilantly, as if everyone is their enemy.
"start!"
They were not given any time to think.
At the command.
Someone immediately took action.
The warrior closest to Chen Yushu immediately slashed at him fiercely with a knife.
In response, Chen Yushu remained expressionless and attacked with the same knife.
when!
The sound was loud.
But Chen Yushu's long sword bounced back at a faster speed the moment it collided with the other long sword, and then aimed at the other person and slapped him hard on the butt.
lie!
With a crisp sound, the man involuntarily lunged forward.
He flew directly out of the ring.
Chen Yushu’s power is too strong.
Every move he made contained terrifying power, which was the only way to send the opponent flying in one fell swoop.
His strength seemed to have attracted the attention of everyone around him. Some people narrowed their eyes and became more alert.

This paragraph is too painful, and it takes me so long to write. I will get over it as soon as possible and update it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow!!!
