White mist lingers in the night sky.

Huang Xingyi stood in the air with a majestic look, looking directly at Lin Hao.

Thinking of the scene where the latter was interacting with Ji Qingyu just now, the coldness in his eyes became even more intense.

Lin Hao had an indifferent look on his face. With his current strength, he did not feel the slightest oppression when facing a sect disciple of this level.

"I don't care where you come from, but I'm giving you a piece of advice."

Huang Xingyi stared at Lin Hao with a cold gaze and said in a deep voice: "Ji Qingyu is not a woman you can get involved with."

"I'm warning you once again. If you try to get close to her again, don't blame me for being rude."

The arrogant tone carried an undisguised threat!

Hearing this, Lin Hao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he seemed to understand the real reason.

However, for a woman with whom he had no relationship, he fought with others with swords.

In this case, it is not a matter of fear, but it is completely unnecessary and meaningless.

"I'm not interested in her."

Lin Hao had an indifferent expression, but he spoke forcefully, "I'm warning you once again. If you come to cause trouble again, I won't show mercy."

After saying that, he moved and flew up.

whoosh!

Just as he was about to leave, a red light suddenly rushed over and blocked his way.

"What a crazy tone! I want to see how ruthless you will be."

Huang Xingyi stared at Lin Hao with cold eyes and sneered.

Obviously, Lin Hao's words just now were like a needle, irritating his arrogant mentality.

Lin Hao had an indifferent expression and stared at the other person calmly.

Although he does not want to cause trouble, if someone wants to find trouble deliberately, then the nature of the matter is completely different.

"In the sect's recruitment examination tomorrow, I, as the chief disciple of Huoyun Pavilion, have the honor of being selected as the assistant to the examiner."

Huang Xingyi said with a half-smile: "Now even if I beat you like a dog, no one will see it."

"So, I've changed my mind. I'll slowly play with you during tomorrow's assessment process."

After saying that, he gave Lin Hao a joking look, then flew away arrogantly.

Lin Hao's eyes were filled with chills as he looked at the red figure, a hint of murderous intent slowly gathering in his eyes.

But soon, it suddenly dissipated.

He has not yet become a disciple of the Jiuxuan Sect. Whether he kills or injures the other party, he will be investigated and hunted down by the sect's forces.

The situation at that time will only cause endless troubles.

As his mind changed, Lin Hao's cold eyes became calm as water again.

These years of experience have made his thinking more mature in all aspects.

Although acting on impulse for a short period of time may feel refreshing, it is not rational.

In this ancient era without any background or connections, being reckless and impulsive will only make you walk on thin ice.

Immediately, Lin Hao took a deep breath.

After suppressing the murderous intent in his heart, he flew to the inn where he had stayed before and waited for dawn.

…

The next morning, it was the beginning of autumn.

It was the day when Jiuxuan Sect opened its doors for recruiting and examining its disciples.

The young talents who came from all over Dongxuanzhou finally looked forward to this day.

For them, Jiuxuan Sect is like a dragon gate.

If you are lucky enough to become a disciple of a sect, the various cultivation resources will undoubtedly be richer than what you can gain in the outside world.

Especially when it comes to martial arts, it is extremely difficult to master them on your own without a strong family background.

However, the Jiuxuan Sect is open only once every ten years.

Once you miss it, the age gap will be an absolute irreparable flaw!

Therefore, at this moment, young figures rushed out one after another from all the inns and restaurants on Shiromiri Island.

As many figures gathered on the street, from a distance it looked like a tide of people rushing towards the seaside.

The Jiuxuan Sect’s assessment.

It is not set up in the area of ​​​​the nine main islands, but in the nearest small island.

Because it is the fixed location for each recruitment examination, it has always been called "Zongkao Island" by the outside world.

All outstanding talents who pass the assessment will eventually be selected by the guiding elders.

In this way, when the surging crowd arrived at the seaside, they all used various means to reach Zongkao Island.

Lin Hao stepped on the void and followed the crowd slowly and arrived at the island.

Ten thousand years is a long time.

But the change in the location of the island is not that big.

Lin Hao is almost very familiar with the environment here.

The only difference is that the Jiuxuan Sect split into nine major sects after the racial war broke out.

And now, there are three palaces and six pavilions within the Jiuxuan Sect.

That is the original form of the power of the nine major sects!

There is a huge square on the seashore of Zongkao Island, which serves as a gathering point for the assessment.

At this time, the square was already packed with people.

"It seems that ten thousand years ago, the Jiuxuan Sect was also very popular among many young warriors..."

Lin Hao was in the crowd, looking around, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Fortunately, the square is large and even though thousands of people gathered here, it didn't seem crowded.

At the end of the square, there is a stone platform with a huge bell hanging on it, which looks extremely heavy.

The metal surface of the giant bell is covered with all kinds of strange patterns, densely packed, resembling some mysterious ancient runes.

"I once heard my uncle say that when he was young, he participated in the Jiuxuan Sect assessment. The first test was to ring the big bell."

A handsome young man in the crowd suddenly spoke.

His eyes were fixed on the bell and tripod on the stone platform, as if he was looking at a beauty he was about to conquer.

"Just ringing the bell? It's that simple."

Hearing this, the young warriors nearby seemed to think it was child's play.

"Hey, don't underestimate that bell. My uncle had already reached the level of a ninth-level warrior, but he could only ring it twice."

The handsome young man immediately retorted.

He then sighed, "It's a pity that the assessment standard requires three rings to be considered passed, and he was eliminated in the first round of the assessment."

Hearing this, everyone sighed.

Even a ninth-level warrior might not be able to pass the test. It seems that ringing the bell is not that easy.

"A bell that detects strength?"

In the crowd, Lin Hao stood and listened quietly. His eyes turned to the bell and tripod and he couldn't help but look at it a few more times.

He secretly wondered in his heart, how many rings will he be able to ring when he takes the test himself?

Just as he was thinking, Lin Hao suddenly felt a cold gaze falling on him.

In a crowded crowd, many eyes fall on you, but they usually just glance at you without looking at you carefully.

However, the look at this moment was completely different.

It felt like being spied on.

Is someone watching me secretly?

Lin Hao's eyes darkened slightly, and he turned his head casually...

But just when he was about to look for it, that hidden and cold gaze disappeared out of thin air.

Lin Hao frowned slightly. He had just arrived in this era not long ago and didn't know many people.

The only person who had some conflicts with him was the chief disciple of Huoyun Pavilion, Huang Xingyi.

However, that guy's presence was not detected at the moment.

Could there be someone else?
