Lu Qingshan waited in the small courtyard he rented for two days.
On the third day, the token given by Dantai Qingrun vibrated.
It's finally here.
Lu Qingshan's eyes flashed. He took out the token and probed it with his Spiritual Force, receiving the message from Dantai Qingrun.
The message was short, just like Dantai Qingrun's personality, simple and clear.
"The matter entrusted to you has been arranged. Come to River Suppression Tower."
It was such a short message. She did not even mention the specific location of River Suppression Tower to Lu Qingshan.
It was as if she was certain that Lu Qingshan knew the location of River Suppression Tower.
However, Dantai Qingrun was right. Lu Qingshan really did know the specific location of River Suppression Tower.
.....
This was a tower that was completely black.
The tower was four stories high. The higher the story, the narrower it was. The roofs of each story overlapped with each other. The corners were raised like the wings of a crane that was about to fly.
At the top of the tower, there was also a very strange thing that was not hung with any signs.
Lu Qingshan stood outside the tower's painted tong door.
A young male cultivator was already waiting here. When he saw Lu Qingshan, he immediately welcomed him. "You're Lu Qingshan, right?"
"That's me." Lu Qingshan understood that this person should be the guide that Dantai Qingrun arranged for him.
"I'm Fei Wa. The Deputy Tower Lord asked me to wait here for you. I'll bring you in when you arrive." Fei Wa introduced himself.
"Okay. Then I'll have to trouble you, Fellow Daoist." Lu Qingshan thanked him.
"You're welcome. Follow me." Fei Wa turned and walked into the tower. Lu Qingshan followed closely behind.
…
'So young?'
Fei Wa muttered in his heart.
According to Dantai Qingrun's instructions, he was going to bring Lu Qingshan to the guards to let Lu Qingshan accept the Tiger Team's entrance examination.
Being a Zhi Guard was different from the other positions in Zhishou Tower. If one wanted to become a Zhi Guard, they had to rely on their own strength.
It wasn't that he was looking down on Lu Qingshan, but with such a young face, even if he was a genius, how much battle strength could he have?
However, even though he had many doubts about Lu Qingshan, on the surface, Fei Wa was very polite to Lu Qingshan.
— — Regardless of whether Lu Qingshan had the strength or not, he was someone who the Vice House Head had taken special care of. Just based on this point, Lu Qingshan was someone he could not afford to offend.
…
Similar to the structure of the Origin Mountain Tower, the true core of the River Suppression Tower was located underground, and this four storey tower was just a facade.
Fei Wa stopped in front of a pitch-black wall in the tower. He took out the River Suppression Tower token and swiped it across the wall as if he was swiping a card.
Ripples immediately appeared on the wall, and a corridor appeared.
Lu Qingshan followed Fei Wa into the corridor.
Not long after, everything opened up.
What entered his eyes was a spacious hall with people coming and going. The light was bright, and there was not the slightest bit of gloominess that should have come from being underground.
The River Suppression Tower's headquarters that hung upside down underground was the same as the tower on the surface, with a total of four storeys.
As the trump card of the Zhishou Tower's four divisions, the Zhi Guard had its own separate basement.
The third basement.
Fei Wa brought Lu Qingshan to an extremely spacious underground plaza.
Five cultivators had been waiting for a long time in the plaza.
Four men and one woman.
"This is Lu Qingshan, a member recommended by Deputy Tower Lord Dantai." Fei Wa introduced to the five cultivators.
Then he turned to Lu Qingshan and introduced, "This is the Tiger Team that you want to join. The sword cultivator in their team just sacrificed himself in the last mission, so …"
Lu Qingshan understood. Coincidentally, the Tiger Team lacked a sword cultivator, so he had the chance to join the team.
It was sad to say that sword cultivators were the profession with the highest taunting value among the six main professions. In most cases, they would be the first target that the enemy would want to get rid of.
So in such small team missions, the death rate of sword cultivators was usually the highest.
After Fei Wa finished his introduction, he retreated into the shadows at the side.
What happened next was up to them to decide.
…
The tall female cultivator stood up, circled around Lu Qingshan, and exclaimed in amazement.
"You are the sword cultivator that Deputy Tower Lord recommended? Aren't you too young? But let's not talk about other things, you're quite handsome. "
"I'm afraid he's just a wax head with a silver spear." A male cultivator wearing a Daoist robe whispered to the side.
"Su Shu!" The tallest of the five, the burly male cultivator frowned and shouted.
The female cultivator called Su Shu rolled her eyes at the burly male cultivator: "I know, business is important, business is important."
Su Shu's expression turned serious, putting away the frivolous expression on her face, and said to Lu Qingshan: "Although you were recommended by Deputy Tower Lord Dantai, everything still has to be done according to the rules. You must accept our test.
Only if your performance is up to standard can you join our team. Otherwise, we can only apologize to Tower Lord Dantai. "
Lu Qingshan's expression was calm: "Of course, how do you want to test me?"
"Fight with me. If I think you're qualified, then you're qualified." The burly male cultivator stood up and clenched his fist.
Well, it's really simple, crude, and brainless.
Lu Qingshan ridiculed in his heart, but he agreed: "Then come."
.....
Although this square was very wide, it was still underground, and the area was still extremely limited.
For a sword cultivator like Lu Qingshan who had just entered Foundation Establishment, the range of his flying sword was four hundred feet.
Coupled with his Sword Kinesis Art, which could reach up to one-fifth the speed of sound, if it was a serious battle, this square would not be able to meet his needs no matter how big it was.
Therefore, the battle proposed by the burly male cultivator was not very formal.
This battle restricted the use of flying spells, and the whole battle was on the ground, and could not fly.
This was obviously more restrictive for Lu Qingshan than for the burly male cultivator.
After all, speed was a sword cultivator's specialty. Without enough space for a sword cultivator to display their speed advantage, a sword cultivator's combat strength could be said to be reduced by a lot.
On the square, Lu Qingshan and the burly male cultivator distanced themselves from each other, standing diagonally opposite each other.
"I'm Xu Hao, a body cultivator!" The burly male cultivator greeted Lu Qingshan.
"Lu Qingshan, a sword cultivator."
Before the battle began, Lu Qingshan cast a Heaven's Eye Spell on Xu Hao.
He was a body cultivator with a total level of 26, and was also the strongest cultivator among all the cultivators in the Tiger Team.
This was an existence that he absolutely could not defeat at the moment.
But fortunately, he did not have to defeat Xu Hao to meet the requirements of the Tiger Team.
After all, there was no one in the Tiger Team who could defeat Xu Hao in a head-on battle.
Lu Qingshan only had to perform to their satisfaction.
"Coming!" Xu Hao roared.
Immediately, Xu Hao's figure was like a fierce tiger, violently rushing toward Lu Qingshan.
Facing the insolent Xu Hao, Lu Qingshan was calm in his heart, quickly moving to another corner of the square. At the same time, with a thought, the Weeping Soul Sword shot out.
Body cultivators, especially low-level body cultivators, did not have any long-range attack methods.
Constantly widening the distance and using the Flying Sword Technique to first wear down Xu Hao's spiritual power was undoubtedly a wise choice.
Seeing the Flying Sword shot out by Lu Qingshan.
"This kid, at least in terms of the speed of the Flying Sword, he still has some skill.
But the problem is, for the captain, this little Flying Sword is simply not enough. "A tall and thin male cultivator who had been watching the show chuckled.
Sure enough, it was as the tall and thin male cultivator said.
Facing the oncoming Flying Sword, Xu Hao did not even try to dodge. His spiritual power moved, and his whole body quickly glowed with a golden light.
One after another, illusory scales like fish scales attached to Xu Hao's body, as if Xu Hao was wearing a set of golden armor.
Clang!
The Flying Sword as fast as lightning hit Xu Hao's golden armor, producing a teeth-numbing sound of metal rubbing against each other.
"The captain's [Golden Scale Body] is absolute in defense. How can the Flying Sword of an early Foundation Establishment sword cultivator cause any harm to the captain?" The tall and thin male cultivator said with a smile of exultation, "If this Lu Qingshan wants to become our teammate, it is not enough to rely on this Flying Sword."
Next to him, a male cultivator with a somewhat round face nodded, agreeing, "This kid is already a Foundation Establishment cultivator at such a young age, he is very amazing.
But we know that what the guards want is not a genius, what we need is a comrade-in-arms who can fight together. If he does not show us something hard, it is useless no matter how young he is. "
