Du Feng immediately understood the reason after hearing what the short Junior Brother said. The weakest swordsman in the Sword Pagoda was at Level 1 of the Earth Immortal Stage. Moreover, their bodies were made of fine steel, so ordinary swords and sabers wouldn't have any effect on them. Even if you had good movement skills and could attack them, it would be useless if you couldn't break their defense.
Moreover, only a single person was allowed to enter the Sword Pagoda. Brothers and sisters were not allowed to enter in a team. Even if they entered in a team, they would be assigned to different places and they wouldn't be able to see each other.
Tsk, tsk, tsk … No wonder the three Senior Sisters were so poor. If the three of them were separated, their individual combat ability was indeed not that great.
Du Feng pondered for a moment. Although he hadn't received the 100 contribution points yet, he could use the three chances to enter the Sword Pagoda. The Riding Dragon Sword should have no problem dealing with the swordsman on the first floor. He just didn't know what the difference was between the swordsman in the Sword Pagoda and the swordsman from the alternate world in the Sword Purification Pool. If they were the same type, wouldn't it be harming lives?
Du Feng didn't need the introduction from the short Junior Brother to guess. Those who did the best in the Sword Pagoda were definitely the disciples of the Second Elder. Because they had learned powerful sword skills, even if their movement skills were slightly inferior, they would still have an advantage when attacking the swordsman.
"Alright, accompany me to the Sword Pagoda."
Originally, Du Feng wanted to practice the Red Leaf Movement Skill in the training field, but he changed his mind and decided to use the chance to enter the Sword Pagoda first. Anyway, as the disciple of the Fourth Elder, he had three chances every year. Moreover, it was already October, and there wasn't much time left for him to use it.
"Alright, I'll lead the way, Senior Brother."
Senior Martial Brother Zhao took a step forward with his short legs and walked in front of the group. It was as if he was the one going to enter the Sword Pagoda instead of Du Feng.
The Sword Pagoda was not far from the training field. Not only could inner court disciples go there, but outer court disciples could also go there. However, outer court disciples could only go there to admire and basically couldn't enter. Unless they were madmen who earned contribution points and were willing to exchange 500 contribution points for a chance to enter the Sword Pagoda. But with those 500 contribution points, they might as well exchange them for a book of Cultivation Skill Secrets or simply exchange them for some medicinal pills.
The Sword Pagoda had a total of seven floors. The first floor was suitable for disciples from the first to the fifth floor of the Earth Celestial Stage to fight and cultivate. Combat cultivation was not the same as meditation cultivation. If one was not careful, they might get injured or even die. Therefore, the Sword Pagoda was very different from the Primordial Energy Pagoda of the Seven Basaltic Mansions. The disciples did not need to compete with each other. As long as they were qualified, they could enter.
However, whether one lived or died after entering would depend on one's own ability. According to the rules of the Yu Xian Sect, swordsmen would not stop during a battle. Even if the disciples were killed, they would continue to attack and even throw the corpses out of the pagoda.
If a disciple feels that he cannot win, he can choose to escape before his body is exhausted. If they were lucky enough to escape the swordsman's attack range, they would be able to survive.
Good, this method is exciting enough, I like it!
If it was a Mechanism Tower that could protect the disciples from death, Du Feng would not like it at all. Because if that was the case, the fight wouldn't be exciting enough, and there wouldn't be enough pressure. If there was not enough pressure, there would not be enough motivation. If he didn't have enough motivation, his progress would be slow.
Fighting with a swordsman who did not stop attacking would give him the feeling of facing a real mortal enemy. This was what Du Feng wanted. Du Feng came to the door of the Sword Pagoda. When he was about to use his disciple's ID card to enter, he saw a person coming out from inside. It was none other than the Queen of the Extreme North who entered the sect with him.
"Lil Bei, why are you here?"
He thought that the Queen of the Extreme North would stay in Qinming Hall for a while and familiarize herself with the sword skills taught by his master. Unexpectedly, she came to the Sword Pagoda earlier than Du Feng. From the looks of it, he had already cleared the trial once, and who knew how many swordsmen he had defeated?
"Junior Sister, let's go."
The Queen of the Extreme North's eyes lit up when she saw Du Feng and was about to talk to him. However, a burly man suddenly appeared next to her and urged her to leave quickly.
"I'll go first. Talk to you later."
The Queen of the Extreme North didn't dare to disobey the man. She hurriedly said something to Du Feng with Secret Voice Transmission and then followed the man to leave quickly. Like a child who had made a mistake, he was still trembling.
"Hiss … Oh no, Senior Brother Du, you seem to have offended the Killer of Qinming Hall."
Looking at the backs of the two leaving, the little Junior Brother took a deep breath and was considering whether to follow Du Feng. Because when they left just now, the man next to the Queen of the Extreme North's eyes obviously flashed a cold light. That was clearly the killing intent.
"What Killer? I don't know him."
Du Feng still felt a little inexplicable. Why did the Queen of the Extreme North suddenly stop talking to him and pretend not to know him? Who is that Killer? He really didn't know.
"You don't know the Killer of Qinming Hall, but you must know that beauty."
Zhao Shixiong thought, Senior Brother Du, don't play dumb with me. The way that beauty looked at you explained everything. Besides, everyone has heard about what happened when you entered the sect. An exquisite beauty. I heard that she went to the Second Elder's Qinming Hall. She should be the one just now.
Qinming Hall had never had a female disciple. If such an exquisite beauty went there, the Senior Brothers would go crazy. Especially Zheng Kenan who had the title of Killer. He would definitely not allow anyone to get close to this beauty. Except for the Second Elder, probably no one in Qinming Hall would listen to him. With the Earth Celestial Stage Level 9 Cultivation and overbearing swordsmanship, he was the champion of the Disciple Competition for three consecutive years.
Well, Du Feng admitted that he was playing dumb. But through this time, he more or less understood the strength level of the Yuxian Sect's disciples. He was the champion of the Martial Arts Competition for three consecutive years. Even if he wasn't the strongest among the disciples, he should be in the top few.
After all, this kind of champion didn't come from nowhere. Zheng Kenan's level should basically show the level of the Yuxian Sect's disciples. In other words, if Du Feng could defeat him, he would basically have no opponent among the top disciples.
Maybe he was afraid that Du Feng didn't know how strong Zheng Kenan would be tomorrow. The short Junior Brother took him to the back of the tower. There was a sign hanging high on the back of the sword tower. There were a lot of names written on it. Du Feng didn't know any of the names in front of him. But he quickly found Zheng Kenan's name in the ranking of the second floor of the tower. Yes, he was ranked second.
