After a while, Mo Qiuchen and Lin Tian returned one after another. Their eyes were filled with regret, as if they had entered a mountain of treasures and returned empty-handed. They were extremely eager to learn those martial skills, but unfortunately, they did not have the right to choose.
Seeing this, Instructor Yang could not help but laugh: "Don't worry, these martial skills will not run away. As long as you work hard, you will naturally have the chance to choose in the future."
Hearing this, the two of them nodded heavily, their eyes filled with passion. It was obvious that they had already set a goal for themselves.
Instructor Yang and the other two immediately looked at each other and smiled. Obviously, their goal had been achieved, and they had successfully aroused the fighting spirit of the two.
Immediately, everyone went downstairs. Instructor Yang went straight to the administrator in charge of the Martial Skill Pavilion and told him the names of the martial skills that the three of them had chosen, and asked him to bring all the books.
Hearing the name 'Wind Riding Technique', the administrator could not help but be slightly surprised. He had been in charge of the Martial Skill Pavilion for many years, and naturally knew of this famous Xuan Level movement martial skill. He did not expect that after so many failures, there would still be people who dared to choose it. Sure enough, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.
Not long after, the administrator came back with three sets of martial skill books and handed them to Instructor Yang. Instructor Yang then distributed them to Lu Xuan and the other two, and said: "These books are not the original, but copies. However, they are no different from the original. After you have successfully learned them, you must return them. Before you learn them, you can keep them for yourself. However, remember, when you leave the sect, you cannot take these books with you. If you find out that they have been stolen from your hands, you will be held responsible."
Wind Sword School's management of martial skills was indeed very strict. Lu Xuan and the other two nodded in agreement.
"Instructor Yang, you previously mentioned that we can obtain other martial skills through the potential assessment. I wonder if we have the right to participate in the assessment?" Lin Tian could not help but ask. Just now, he had flipped through the Phantom Chain Sword Technique. It was indeed very exquisite, but compared to the Xuan Level martial skills he had seen, it was far inferior. Naturally, he had other thoughts. Even if he could not obtain it, it was still good to give it a try.
Not only Lin Tian, but Mo Qiuchen's eyes also flashed with a trace of desire. The temptation of a Profound Ranked Martial Skill was too great for them.
Instructor Yang was slightly startled, then he smiled and said, "Of course you are qualified. However, every disciple only has one chance to participate in the assessment within three months. At the same time, it will also determine if you have the qualifications to continue staying in Cloud Sky Mountain."
In this regard, the three of them had some understanding. Instructor Yang had even personally explained to Lu Xuan that the core disciples would hold an assessment every three months. Once they did not meet the requirements, they would no longer be able to enjoy the treatment of a core disciple and would have to start serving the sect.
"Hmm, let me think. The assessment was just held last month, so the next one will have to wait for two months. However, since you have just joined, I will make an exception and open up the assessment for you. However, you must be prepared. After this assessment, your results will be recorded. In the next assessment, you must have a higher score than this one. Otherwise, you will lose the qualifications to be a core disciple. This is not a joke," Instructor Yang said seriously. These were the rules of Cloud Sky Mountain, so he could not be biased.
Hearing Instructor Yang's serious words, Lin Tian hesitated. After all, this was not just his problem. Once the assessment was open, Lu Xuan and the other two would naturally have to participate. Thinking of this, Lin Tian looked at Lu Xuan and Mo Qiuchen, asking for their opinion.
"I have no problem," Mo Qiuchen said first. He also wanted to try out the Xuan Level Martial Skill.
"Let's go together, I have no problem either," Lu Xuan laughed.
Hearing this, Lin Tian's face immediately flashed with a trace of joy, "Then I will have to trouble Instructor Yang to open up the assessment for us."
"Since you have decided, then follow me," Instructor Yang nodded and said.
The group immediately left the Martial Skill Pavilion and followed behind Instructor Yang, heading towards the location of the test of potential.
After walking for a short distance, Lu Xuan encountered Xiao Long and a few other core disciples. He had previously met them in the Martial Arts Discussion Hall, so they could be considered acquaintances.
"Greetings, Instructor Yang." With Xiao Long in the lead, the disciples all bowed. Soon after, Xiao Long looked at Lu Xuan and said with a smile, "Junior Lu, where are you going?"
"Participating in the test of potential to see if we can obtain another martial skill," Lu Xuan replied with a smile. He still had a good impression of Xiao Long.
"Test of potential?" Xiao Long was slightly surprised, but he immediately reacted, "Yes, you new disciples have an exception. Haha, back in the day, I also participated in the test without knowing the immensity of heaven and earth. In the end, I did not even have the qualifications to obtain a High Rank Yellow Level Martial Skill. However, Junior Lu, your talent is extraordinary, you will definitely succeed."
"Senior Xiao, you did not even have the qualifications to obtain a High Rank Yellow Level Martial Skill?" Beside him, Lin Tian asked with incomparable astonishment.
"Yes, this test of potential is extremely difficult." Xiao Long shook his head and said, "Although the sect has provided two ways to obtain martial skills, the number of disciples who can pass the test of potential and obtain a martial skill can be counted on one's fingers. This is because it does not test your strength, but your potential. Even the Xuan Level Martial Skill that I used previously was exchanged for with contribution points."
Once these words were spoken, Lin Tian and Mo Qiuchen's hearts instantly sank. Obviously, the difficulty of this test was much higher than they had imagined. Although Instructor Yang had already said that the difficulty was extremely high, the two of them still did not believe it. Now that Xiao Long had spoken, the credibility was naturally higher.
"Haha, this is just my opinion. Although the two of you are not as strong as me, your talent might be higher than mine. Let's go, let's go, I will follow you to take a look." Xiao Long laughed. Originally, he was going to the Martial Skill Pavilion to return the martial skill manual. Now that there was a show to watch, it would not be too late to take it slow. Moreover, he also wanted to see the extent of Lu Xuan's potential.
Hence, Lu Xuan's group expanded once again, with the addition of Xiao Long and the others.
"Have you heard? Junior Lu, who was so impressive in the Martial Arts Discussion Hall, is going to participate in the test of potential. Are you interested in taking a look?"
"Junior Lu? The one who defeated Senior Brother Kong in the Martial Arts Discussion Hall, Junior Brother Lu Xuan? "
"That's right. Other than this Junior Brother Lu, who else can receive so much attention?"
"Then I have to go take a look. I have some regrets about missing the battle in the Martial Arts Discussion Hall. I can't miss it this time!"
…
"Sigh, Junior Brother Li Qun just sent me a message. He said that the new core disciple, Junior Brother Lu Xuan, is going to participate in the test of potential. Let's go and take a look."
…
Humans were social animals, especially the limited number of core disciples. The news naturally spread very quickly. One spread to ten, ten spread to a hundred. Not long after, almost all the disciples in the Cloud Sky Mountain knew that Lu Xuan and the others were going to participate in the test of potential, especially those disciples who didn't attend the Martial Arts Discussion Hall. They were regretting that they had missed it, so they couldn't miss it this time.
When Lu Xuan and the others arrived at their destination, they instantly realized that there were already many disciples waiting there. Judging from the number of people, there were even more than the number at the Martial Arts Discussion Hall, and there was still an endless stream of disciples rushing over.
"Junior Brother Lu, you can be considered to have made a name for yourself in one battle. So many disciples are here to observe your test of potential," Xiao Long said with a smile.
Lu Xuan was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect so many people to come and observe. This was originally mentioned by Lin Tian, but now, the main character had become him.
"Haha, don't feel pressured. Just perform your best." Xiao Long patted Lu Xuan's shoulder and teased.
Just at this moment, a deacon walked forward and said, "Greetings, Instructor Yang. What's going on? Why are there so many disciples here? Today isn't the day of the test, right? "
This deacon was in charge of managing the test. When he saw so many disciples, he was also a little confused. He didn't know what was going on today. Almost all the core disciples were here. Normally, such a grand occasion could only be seen during the test that happened once every three months.
Instructor Yang smiled and said, "Today, there are new disciples entering the sect and they are here to participate in the test of potential. They are all here to watch the show. Go and prepare to open the array."
So it was a new disciple. The deacon glanced at Lu Xuan and the others and immediately retreated. However, he was puzzled in his heart. There were many new disciples who opened the array, but there had never been such a scene. Could it be that some big shot had come?
Instructor Yang pointed at the array in front of them and turned his head to explain to Lu Xuan and the others, "Do you see that array? That is an illusory killing array, similar to your inner sect's sword forest. In a while, when the array opens, you can enter the array. The array will create illusions of enemies, and what you need to do is to continuously defeat them. "
After a pause, he continued, "But what is different from the Sword Forest is that the strength of the illusionary martial artists will be the same level as you. For example, Lin Tian, you will face a martial artist at the 8th rank of the Body Refinement Realm, and Lu Xuan, you will face a martial artist at the 10th rank of the Body Refinement Realm. Every time you kill a martial artist, their strength will increase. The first one will use a low-grade Yellow Level martial technique, the second one will use a mid-grade Yellow Level martial technique, and towards the end, there will even be a Weapon Intent, or even a Xuan Level martial technique! This will continue until you are defeated! "
Instructor Yang's words shocked Lu Xuan and the others. No wonder it was called a test of potential. It did not look at your strength at all. If your strength was low, your opponent's strength would also be low. If your strength was high, your opponent's strength would also be high. What they were comparing was your fighting strength. Under the same level, the stronger your fighting strength, the higher your potential.
"So it's like this. No wonder even Senior Brother Xiao did not pass the test." Lin Tian swallowed his saliva and said. Now, he finally understood the difficulty of this test.
Lu Xuan thought for a while and asked, "Then the illusionary martial artist's strength can't keep increasing, right? Don't tell me that if you continuously defeat them, they will still use a Heaven Level martial technique? "
