Actually, Dong Hu and company had guessed that the Earth Fire Hall assessment would be very difficult when they saw how fearful the miscellaneous chores disciples were. However, so what if it was difficult? Wasn't the path of martial arts about facing difficulties head-on?
These people were recruited after the Luo clan experienced the chaos of war to replenish their numbers. In the past tens of thousands of years, the Luo clan had never held such a large-scale disciple recruitment that covered hundreds of planets. They had stood out from the hundreds of planets.
Dong Hu, Bai Wei, and Sun Lie were eager to try, but at this moment, Yi Yun was observing Fairy Black Bamboo. He found it interesting that Fairy Black Bamboo clearly cultivated in fire-elemental laws, but be it the feeling or aura she exuded, they were as cold as ice. Could fire-elemental laws be cultivated to such an extent? How strange.
"Since there are no objections, I'll announce the contents of the assessment. First, let's talk about my Earth Fire Hall. The Earth Fire Hall has a total of more than a thousand disciples. As for the Fire Cloud State's disciples participating in the assessment, other than the steward disciples of the 108 peaks, there are even more outer-sect disciples, totaling more than a hundred thousand."
When Fairy Black Bamboo said this, even Dong Hu and company, who were filled with confidence, shrunk their necks as they felt their hearts pounding.
That's right, the attendant disciples of the 108 peaks were actually chosen from the outer sect disciples. They could be considered the lucky ones. That was a few thousand people.
And there were even more disciples that did not have the qualifications to become steward disciples of the Heaven Fire Hall disciples. They were scattered throughout the Fire Cloud State, and these people were the mainstream of the outer-sect disciples.
Every year, the Earth Fire Hall would only give out a few dozen people. The competition was too intense.
Fairy Black Bamboo continued, "The Earth Fire Hall's assessment is split into two types. The first is to follow me into the Earth Fire Hall's Relic Hall and undergo the Desolate Heaven technique assessment! The other was a test of strength, which could be done on the spot! Talismans, pills, puppets, and other external forces were not allowed to be used. Those who aren't strong enough should retreat as soon as possible. Don't have any wishful thinking and waste my time. "
"Now, which assessment will you choose?" asked Fairy Black Bamboo.
"A test of strength!"
"Choose the second option!"
Dong Hu and company said one after another. The Desolate Heaven technique test was even more difficult. There were very few people who could pass the Desolate Heaven technique test and enter the Earth Fire Hall. Furthermore, they did not know the Desolate Heaven technique.
After Dong Hu said that, he looked at Yi Yun with a teasing smile. He was waiting for Yi Yun to choose.
Fairy Black Bamboo also looked at Yi Yun.
Yi Yun stroked his chin. He needed to go to the Relic Hall to take the Desolate Heaven technique test? Indeed, the use of the Desolate Heaven technique required materials, array platforms, relic cauldrons and many other tools. Having an open-air examination here would indeed affect the performance of some Desolate Heaven technique apprentices.
Yi Yun did not mind. He did not mind the difference in external conditions.
However, Yi Yun did not like trouble. It was more convenient to take the test on the spot, so he said, "I will also choose to rely on my strength."
Yi Yun did not care if it was a test of strength or the Desolate Heaven technique.
But when he said that, Tao 'er was stunned. Big Brother Yi actually chose to test strength? Didn't you let Brother Yi choose the Desolate Heaven technique?
Brother Yi's Desolate Heaven technique is definitely not a problem, but his strength … Brother Yi's injuries have just healed, so is it really alright to test his strength?
At this moment, how could Tao'er say anything? Fairy Black Bamboo had already said, "Alright, since it is a test of strength, it will save time. Report your bone age and demonstrate your strength in front of me. Be it nomological insights, combat prowess, or cultivation techniques, show them to your heart's content. Only something that attracts me will be qualified to continue."
The Earth Fire Hall did not have any explicit test questions. It was up to the examiners to express themselves. The tests that Fairy Black Bamboo presided over were always simple and crude.
Yi Yun found it refreshing when he heard this. Such an assessment method was truly primitive. He thought that there would be a specially constructed array for them to challenge.
"We can spar?" Dong Hu's eyes lit up. He liked sparring.
He was not good at demonstrating his nomological insights or cultivation techniques. As a member of the Tiger race, he was good at physical strength. In terms of laws, even the Tiger race admitted that they were lacking in this aspect.
However, sparring was his forte.
He immediately looked at Yi Yun. His eyes were like a wolf that had seen its prey. This was truly a heaven-sent opportunity!
"Fairy, what happens if you injure someone during sparring?" Dong Hu asked as he clenched his fist.
"Swords and sabers have no eyes. Those who are lacking in strength will inevitably be injured." Fairy Black Bamboo said coldly. This statement made Dong Hu feel even more exhilarated. It was fine even if he was injured. This was what Fairy Black Bamboo had said.
In a while, during the test, he wanted to sever Yi Yun's meridians, causing his old injuries to relapse. He would then be bedridden for half a year.
"Brother Hu, are you going to fight with Junior Brother Yi? I think it's better if I do it. "
Seeing that Dong Hu was about to beat Yi Yun, Sun Lie turned anxious. Yi Yun was a human from the lower realm. Half a month ago, all his meridians had been severed, and he looked like he was on the brink of death. Now, his injuries were probably not fully healed. How could he give such a chance for revenge to Dong Hu?
If Yi Yun were to be crippled by Dong Hu, wouldn't he have no chance of beating him?
"Senior Brother Sun, Senior Brother Hu, the both of you are evenly matched. You are evenly matched during sparring, so you can have a good fight. I'm slightly weaker, so let me handle this Junior Brother Yi. "
Bai Wei interjected, also hoping to snatch Yi Yun. This was the first time Yi Yun had heard them address him as "Junior Brother Yi".
For the three of them to vie for Yi Yun, it was likely that they had a grudge against him. This situation was noticed by the other miscellaneous chores disciples, including Tao'er.
Many people looked at Yi Yun oddly. They did not know how Yi Yun had formed a grudge with the three of them.
Three against one was clearly disadvantageous to Yi Yun. From the looks of it, the three of them would definitely not go easy on him.
At this moment, Yi Yun spoke. He did not look at Dong Hu and company, instead, he asked Fairy Black Bamboo, "If we are all sparring, how do we win the qualification?"
Fairy Black Bamboo said, "The last person standing, if the battle ends fast enough, wins the qualification."
Fairy Black Bamboo's answer was simple and crude. Everyone was stunned when they heard this. It was not the last person to win, but the last person standing. Was she going to beat everyone down?
"Got it." Yi Yun said.
Dong Hu and company were also stunned. In that case, the three of them still had to spar.
The way the three of them looked at each other immediately turned odd. They were also competitors! Dong Hu and company had also held back their hidden means. In a while, they would also use these means.
Regardless, they had to finish Yi Yun first!
"Yi Yun, let's go first!" Dong Hu shouted and suddenly attacked.
