"Yes."
Hearing the coldness in Jian Ni's voice, Gu Qianjun retreated to the side obediently.
In this assessment, no one could go against Jian Ni.
Not to mention that there were many seals in the Shang Sword Sect Ruins that could easily kill Gu Qianjun, the strength that Jian Ni displayed was not something that Gu Qianjun could resist.
"Who's next?"
Seeing that Gu Qianjun had retreated to the side, Jian Ni looked at the crowd and said.
"Me."
Sword Sage Qin took a step forward and came to the side of the Sword Test Stone. A surge of sword essence condensed in his palm and he slammed it on the Sword Test Stone.
On the Sword Test Stone, sword essence burst forth and the first level started to light up.
Next was the second level and the third level.
Enlightened Sword Qin's Sword Will merely stopped at the third level before disappearing.
Seeing the result, no one was surprised. In terms of strength, Gu Qianjun was above Sword Sage Qin. Sword Sage Qin was considered lucky to be able to come this far.
After all, Blood Shadow Swordmaster, who was stronger than Sword Sage Qin, had died in the passageway.
Sword Sage Qin's face turned pale when he saw the result. However, he could only stand aside.
Next, without Jian Ni shouting, someone took the initiative and came to the Sword Test Stone to take the assessment.
Flying Sword Emperor was the third to take the assessment. He condensed his sword essence and injected it into the Sword Test Stone. Suddenly, five levels of the Sword Test Stone were lit up.
This number surpassed Sword Sage Qin and Gu Qianjun.
This result made Gu Qianjun and Sword Enlightened Qin even more embarrassed, especially Sword Enlightened Qin. If there was anyone who surpassed him, he would definitely be eliminated this time.
Once one was eliminated, one could only die or become a slave. These were the two paths.
The next person was Brilliant Void Heaven Piercer. He came to the Sword Test Stone and injected his sword essence into it. Suddenly, the fourth level of the Sword Test Stone was lit up. Even the fifth level of the Sword Test Stone was shining brightly.
Just as the fifth level was about to be lit up, Brilliant Void Heaven Piercer's sword essence suddenly disappeared.
His result stopped at the fourth level, the same as Gu Qianjun.
Seeing this, Gu Qianjun let out a sigh of relief. If Brilliant Void Heaven Piercer surpassed him, he would be in great danger. Now that their results were the same, there was still a chance.
Only Immortal Sword Qin's face had already turned pale.
He clearly knew that he had failed the trial.
Only Chu Fengmian, the Divine Wood Sword Emperor, and Xuan Cangtian were left.
Putting aside Chu Fengmian, the Divine Wood Sword Emperor was a famous expert. His strength was unfathomable, and from his performance in the previous rounds, it could be seen how powerful the Divine Wood Sword Emperor was.
The Divine Wood Sword Emperor would definitely surpass him.
As for Xuan Cangtian, he came from the top Sword Sect of the Nine Regions, the Tian Jian Sect. There was no need to doubt his Sword Dao.
As for Chu Fengmian, even if his grades weren't as good as his, it wouldn't change anything.
"Brother Shenmu, you first or I first?"
Xuan Cangtian looked at the Divine Wood Sword Emperor and asked after the Brilliant Void Heaven Piercer test was completed. He completely ignored Chu Fengmian who was beside him.
"I'll go first."
The Divine Wood Sword Emperor did not decline and directly took a step forward. He arrived in front of the Sword Testing Stone and placed his hand on the Sword Testing Stone. Immediately, a shocking sword intent erupted from the Sword Testing Stone.
The strength of the sword intent far surpassed any of the previous sword intents.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the Sword Testing Stone.
Starting from the first level, the dazzling light kept rising.
The first level, the second level, the third level, the fourth level, the fifth level …
Among the four of them, the best result was the Flying Sword Emperor's fifth level. However, the light soon lit up the fifth level.
It wasn't over yet. The light rushed to an even higher level and soon reached the sixth level.
"The sixth level …"
Seeing the sixth level lit up, everyone was extremely shocked. Everyone knew how difficult the Sword Testing Stone was, but the Divine Wood Sword Emperor had lit up the sixth level in an instant.
Moreover, the sword intent did not disappear. Instead, it continued to rush to an even higher level.
"The seventh level?"
"Oh my god."
Seeing that the seventh level of the Sword Testing Stone was lit up, many people's eyes were filled with envy and jealousy. To be able to light up the seventh level of the Sword Testing Stone was enough to prove how powerful the Divine Wood Sword Emperor was.
The stronger the Divine Wood Sword Emperor was, the greater the chance he had to obtain the final inheritance.
On the Sword Testing Stone, the Divine Wood Sword Emperor's sword intent rushed up after lighting up the seventh level. Even the eighth level started to be lit up a little.
However, charging to the seventh level was almost the limit of the Divine Wood Sword Emperor. The eighth level was only lit up a little and the Divine Wood Sword Emperor's sword intent disappeared.
The result stopped at the seventh level.
The result was already extremely shocking. It surpassed the Flying Sword Emperor who was previously ranked first by two levels.
"The seventh level?"
The Divine Wood Sword Emperor also raised his head and took a look at the result. He couldn't help but mutter to himself. It was unknown if he was satisfied or dissatisfied with the result.
However, the Divine Wood Sword Emperor had already lit up the seventh level of the Sword Testing Stone. It was already certain that he would pass the test this time.
"Not bad."
Jian Ni, who was standing in the air and looking at everyone from afar, looked at the Divine Wood Sword Emperor and said. His eyes revealed a satisfied expression.
The feeling that Jian Ni gave off previously had always been extremely cold. However, he praised the Divine Wood Sword Emperor at that moment.
This made everyone's heart turn cold, especially the Flying Sword Emperor and the others. They looked at the Divine Wood Sword Emperor as though they were facing a great enemy.
If the Divine Wood Sword Emperor really obtained the final inheritance, all of their efforts would be in vain.
"Kid, I'll let you go first."
Xuan Cangtian looked at Chu Fengmian and said coldly.
Xuan Cangtian wasn't as courteous to Chu Fengmian as he was to the Divine Wood Sword Emperor.
Everyone in the nine regions knew about the grudge between the Sword Dao Sect and the Tian Jian Sect. Moreover, more than one or two Sword Dao Sect disciples had died in Chu Fengmian's hands.
At that moment, Xuan Cangtian didn't need to conceal his hostility anymore.
"Let me go first?"
Chu Fengmian couldn't help but reveal a smile when he heard Xuan Cangtian's words.
"If I go first, I'm afraid it will shatter the pride in your heart. It's better for you to go first."
"Shatter the pride in my heart?"
Xuan Cangtian's face revealed a cold expression when he heard Chu Fengmian's words. He snorted coldly.
Xuan Cangtian was a rare genius in the Tian Jian Sect. He wasn't the Sect Master, but he made an exception to cultivate the Celestial Sword Technique. He even made the Tian Jian Sect pay a huge price to obtain an Upper Sword Execution Chart. This was how highly the Tian Jian Sect valued him.
