Lu Xuan rubbed his nose and couldn't help but look at Xia Ye behind him. Why did that look feel so familiar? Didn't Xia Ye have the same look during the entrance examination?
It seemed that all geniuses were competitive. They always wanted to prove that they were better than everyone else. However, Lu Xuan wasn't that bored. Whether he was a genius or not, it was not up to him to decide.
He immediately cupped his hands towards Xing Feng. "Lu Xuan greets Senior Xing Feng. I hope you can take care of me in the future."
Seeing that Lu Xuan didn't accept his challenge and instead took the initiative to put himself in the position of Junior Brother, Xing Feng was a little surprised. However, one shouldn't hit a smiling person. He immediately cupped his hands and said, "Junior Lu Xuan need not be so polite. Since we are both disciples of the Sword Sect, we will naturally fight for the glory of the Sword Sect together."
As the Grand Elder of the Sword Sect, Elder Cheng seemed to be rather gratified when he saw the two of them getting along well, and he nodded lightly. After that, he looked at all the new inner court disciples in the Sword Pavilion and said in a loud voice, "Since all of you have chosen my Sword Sect, then you must place the glory of the Sword Sect at the top. Work hard in your cultivation and bring honor to my Sword Sect in the future. The sect entrance test for all inner court disciples will be held seven days from now.
Everyone agreed. Elder Cheng gave a soft "En" before dispersing the crowd.
"Lu Xuan, Xia Ye, these are the rewards for the three of you in the entrance examination." With a flash of light in Elder Xu's hand, two items appeared.
The top three martial artists in the entrance examination would not only directly enter the Inner Sect, but also receive five Muscle Tendon Changing Pills as a reward. At this moment, these were the items in Elder Xu's hand.
Lu Xuan and Xia Ye were both in the top three, so they naturally deserved the reward. As for Lin Xinyi, she was an inner sect disciple who didn't participate in the entrance examination, so she didn't receive a reward. Of course, with the wealth of the Lin family, a mere five Muscle Tendon Changing Pills was nothing.
Seeing the five Tendon Altering Pills, a trace of happiness flashed across Lu Xuan's face. The Tendon Altering Pill was a medicinal pill used by those at the fifth level of Body Refinement, the Tendon Forging Realm. With these five medicinal pills, based on his accumulation during this period of time, he would definitely be able to attempt breaking through to the fifth level of Body Refinement.
After thanking Elder Xu, Lu Xuan took the pills and carefully put them into the storage ring given to him by Xia Chenxi.
Elder Xu said, "Lu Xuan, you won first place this time. In addition, there are additional rewards. You can choose any one of them. You, Lu Xuan, a low-grade Yellow rank martial technique, low-grade Yellow rank martial technique, and low-grade Body Refining pills."
He already had the Yearning Sword as a weapon, so he did not need anything else for the time being. He also had the Taiyi Convergence Technique, and he also had the Lightning Sword Technique and the Blink Sword Technique for his martial arts skills. He was not lacking in any of them at the moment, and pills could help him increase his strength quickly. Coupled with the existence of the sword crystal, there was no need for him to worry about pill toxins at all.
Thinking of this, he made a decision. "This disciple chooses the elixir."
Elder Xu nodded, and a jade bottle appeared. "This is a Meridian Shield Pill. It can protect one's meridians from being damaged. This is the most suitable pill for breaking through to the Sixth Stage of Body Refinement, Pulse Condensation."
Then, he warned Lu Xuan, "Although medicinal pills are good, they will produce pill toxins. Moreover, frequent use of medicinal pills can easily cause an unstable foundation, so it's not advisable to take too many. You have to consider this carefully."
Clearly, Elder Xu was a little worried that Lu Xuan would obtain so many medicinal pills at once. He was afraid that Lu Xuan would covet the rapid increase in strength brought by the medicinal pills and continue to consume them. Thus, he had no choice but to remind him.
"This disciple will remember your teachings." Lu Xuan didn't say much and just answered.
"Mm, that's good. In seven days, it will be the entrance test for all the inner sect disciples. At that time, all the newly promoted inner sect disciples from the nine branch sects will participate. If nothing unexpected happens, the people from the Saber Sect will definitely come arrogantly to provoke us. This time, the glory of our Sword Sect will be completely entrusted to you. Do not disappoint me." Elder Xu said in a low voice.
In the past, the entrance test and the grand competition were the most embarrassing times for the Sword Sect. Almost every time, they would be mocked and ridiculed by the other sects. However, their skills were inferior, so the Sword Sect could only silently endure this embarrassment.
However, this time, with Lu Xuan's participation, Elder Xu's confidence was reignited. Whether the Sword Sect could hold its head high or not depended on Lu Xuan.
"This disciple will not disappoint Elder Xu. Let me, Lu Xuan, protect the glory of the Sword Sect!" Lu Xuan said resolutely. Elder Xu had helped him too much. The best way to repay him was to lead the Sword Sect to glory. This entrance test was the first step!
"Very good. I admire your confidence the most. Train well for the next seven days and adjust your condition. Alright, you can go and rest. After you leave, there will be an attendant to bring you to your lodgings." Elder Xu waved his hand.
The three of them bid farewell to Elder Xu and left the Sword Pavilion. An attendant came to greet them and took the initiative to bring Lu Xuan and the others to the lodgings of the inner sect disciples.
Lin Xinyi and Xia Ye were a little excited after finally regaining their freedom. After all, it was the first time they came to the Wind Sword School. They could not help but look around. Even Lu Xuan was a little curious. After all, he was still a young man and had great curiosity.
"Lu Xuan, are you confident in the entrance test in seven days?" Lin Xinyi looked at Lu Xuan with bright eyes and asked.
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "We will know when the time comes."
Xia Ye could not help but ask, "Lu Xuan, don't tell me you want to be number one? This time, you will be facing all the young geniuses of the three empires. The difficulty will not be small! "
"No matter how difficult it is, I still have to try." Lu Xuan said firmly.
"That's right. Lu Xuan, I believe you can definitely do it!" Lin Xinyi unconditionally expressed her support for Lu Xuan. What she liked the most was the confidence in Lu Xuan's indifferent smile. It seemed that Lu Xuan was not as confident as Xing Feng, but those who were familiar with Lu Xuan would know that his confidence was not shown on his face, but in his heart.
The three of them chatted and laughed. Soon, they arrived at their lodgings. Because the number of disciples entering the Sword Sect this year was far less than usual, there were many empty rooms. The three of them quickly chose three rooms that were connected together.
However, at this moment, someone suddenly blocked their path. It was Xing Feng.
A trace of displeasure appeared on Lin Xinyi and Xia Ye's faces.
"Lu Xuan, you and I have the best results among the new disciples of the Sword Sect this time. However, a sect only needs one leader, and I think we need to decide who will be the leader." Xing Feng went straight to the point and said. He was a man of character, and he was very straightforward.
"Then I wonder what advice senior brother Xing Feng has?" Lu Xuan asked.
"In seven days, it will be the entrance test. We will use this time's results as the standard. Whoever has the better results will be the leader."
"You are at the fifth-level of the Body Refinement Realm, while Lu Xuan is only at the fourth-level. Isn't this a bit too unfair?" Lin Xinyi could not help but defend Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan waved his hand to stop Lin Xinyi. He said: "It's fine. Since senior brother Xing Feng is interested, then we will do as senior brother says."
Lu Xuan did not like to show off too much, but it did not mean that he was afraid of challenges. Lu Xuan also had his own pride. Since he had promised Elder Xu that he would help the Sword Sect regain its rightful honor, he would have to face Xing Feng sooner or later. He might as well use this opportunity to settle things.
