They are the ones who are going to take the test. I’m afraid this kendo test won’t be so easy.
Especially Duan Heshan. Mu Hanyan in her previous life had long heard of his great name. If she faced him, even she would not be sure of winning, let alone Hua Yue and others.
But, shouldn't my luck be that bad? Mu Hanyan felt that she had been subjected to difficulties at every turn since she entered Longyan College. Her luck was already bad enough, so it was reasonable for her luck to change.
Unfortunately, many things in this world go against our wishes.
At the Zhanlong branch, the spacious training grounds were packed with new and veteran students, all with excitement written all over their faces. Today was the day of the Longyan Academy's swordsmanship assessment.
In order to cultivate truly strong people, Longyan Academy encourages and even forces its disciples to practice various strange and magical skills in various ways to help them understand the laws of heaven and earth and make further progress in the future.
But after all, swordsmanship is respected in the Holy Court Continent, and for the vast majority of young swordsmen, the realm of Sword Saint is their greatest pursuit in life. They dare not even imagine a higher realm, so this swordsmanship assessment is what they value the most and what can best ignite the passion of young people.
When Mu Hanyan and his group walked into the martial arts arena, they attracted a lot of curious glances as expected.
"Have you heard that Master Tian from the Formation Hall was also defeated by Mu Hanyan yesterday?" someone said mysteriously.
"Nonsense, do you need to say that? Even a deaf person would have heard it." Seeing his mysterious look, others said disdainfully.
"He's only been in the hospital for half a month, and he's already crippled two instructors, and no one has caught him. He's still safe and sound. He's worthy of being the number one playboy in the capital. Oh, no, he's now the number one playboy in Longyan."
"I wonder what kind of trouble Mu Hanyan will cause during today's swordsmanship test?" someone asked expectantly. Young people are full of vigor and passion, and naturally, they tend to crave chaos.
"Want to watch the fun? Then you're probably going to be disappointed. Those in charge of the assessment this time are the twelve disciples under Lord Long, and the one leading them is Duan Heshan. It's good enough that Mu Hanyan can pass the assessment. If she meets Duan Tianya, she will most likely fail and suffer a lot." Someone said sourly.
Although the title of Longyan's No. 1 Playboy is not a good one, many people are still envious and jealous of Mu Dawan's amazing deeds and extraordinary talent.
Others may be dandy and arrogant, but they do have the capital to be so, and they can't help but accept it. But that doesn't stop them from being jealous.
As soon as Mu Hanyan arrived, there was a burst of whispers all around, and the originally solemn and dignified martial arts field became noisy.
"Silence." Long Congyuan walked onto the competition stage and shouted in a deep voice.
The audience immediately quieted down.
"It's getting late, today's assessment is officially about to begin." Long Congyuan didn't waste any time and directly announced the start of the assessment, not even bothering to explain the rules.
In fact, the kendo test at Longyan Academy is also very simple. The instructor or disciple in charge of the test will make the moves, and the disciples participating in the test will respond with counter attacks. It is similar to an ordinary kendo competition, except that there is no need to determine the winner.
Usually, the examiner or student's skills determine the number of moves, and as long as the examinee can persevere, they will pass the examination. However, if the performance is good, sometimes even if they can't persevere, they can still be considered to have passed the examination.
To be honest, this type of assessment has its own drawbacks, providing ample opportunities for corruption and malpractice. However, this is Longyan Academy after all, and the importance of the kendo assessment in the minds of all disciples is unmatched by any other assessment. In a sense, every kendo assessment is a test of the dignity of kendo and the honor of Longyan Academy.
Therefore, from ancient times to the present, no one dared to cheat in every sword-fighting assessment at Longyan Academy, and the results were recognized by every instructor and every disciple.
If there is still a chance to cheat in an assessment like the Wuxin Sword, then this assessment method that seems to be full of loopholes is actually more fair and just.
"First match, Zheng Zhiqing." A mentor in charge of judging walked onto the competition stage and said after drawing lots.
The examiner this time is a disciple of Long Congyuan from Zhanlong Academy, while the judge is a tutor from Tenglong Academy. This is also to maintain the fairness and justice of the examination.
"The chief examiner is Zeng Jianping." Another instructor in charge of judging drew a bamboo stick from the list of chief examiners.
Immediately, a young man of about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old flew up to the competition stage with great dignity. Opposite him, a boy of about sixteen or seventeen years old also walked onto the competition stage with some respect and some trepidation.
"Junior Brother Zheng, as long as you can take ten of my moves, you will have passed the test." Zeng Jianping said briefly.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Zeng." Zheng Zhiqing bowed.
"Please!" Zeng Jianping drew out his sword and slashed towards Zheng Zhiqing.
This sword move did not contain too many changes, nor was it particularly exquisite, but it was clean and neat, with great momentum, and vaguely, it had a sense of naturalness.
Zheng Zhiqing obviously had a lot of experience in fighting. With one swing of his sword, there were more than a dozen changes. Under the suppression of the opponent's sword, these dozen changes seemed too fancy and lacked fighting spirit.
"Bang", with a dull thud, Zheng Zhiqing was knocked off the stage.
Fortunately, Zeng Jianping's sword strike was very measured. Although Zheng Zhiqing was defeated very quickly, he was not injured. He stood up immediately after landing, his face flushed with shame, and he squeezed into the crowd in shame.
"What a strong strength!" Although Zheng Zhiqing was defeated without blocking a single sword attack, no one ridiculed him. Everyone was secretly shocked.
Among the twelve disciples of Long Congyuan, Zeng Jianping is not the strongest, he is just in the middle, but he is already so terrifying. How strong are those who are stronger than him?
Mu Hanyan was also somewhat surprised. Zheng Zhiqing was a Great Swordsman, and judging by his previous attacks, he possessed extensive combat experience, making him a rare rival among Great Swordsmen of his level. Yet, he couldn't even block a single strike from Zeng Jianping. And Zeng Jianping was only mid-level among Long Congyuan's twelve disciples. Just how formidable could Duan Heshan's strength be?
This kendo assessment is really difficult.
(During the day, I'm trying to turn over like a salted fish. If I do, you know, it's time for a burst of updates. But I'm afraid that after turning over twice, I'll end up back where I was. That would be a tragedy...)
