The Final Sect Screening

Back in the square, because the first screening that Liu Nongjie and Lin Ziyun participated in was scheduled later, so by the time they finished ascending the heavenly ladder, the testing of their spiritual roots had also ended.

They stood aside and waited for the presiding elder to arrange the second screening.

During this time, Lin Ziyun also explained the details of the second screening to Liu Nongjie.

The second screening was based on those who had passed the first screening to engage in a ring challenge, which could clearly see how each person performed to determine whether or not they passed the second screening.

In other words, even those who failed the challenge could join the sect through the screening by having good strength or field awareness.

Liu Nongjie understood and also said that it was indeed Mingjian's screening.

Lin Ziyun also added, ''During the second screening, the sect's patriarch and elders will also come to watch the battle in order to see if there are any suitable disciples to join them. For example, the Danding Pavilion which is suitable for wood spirit roots, the Cloud Sea which is suitable for water spirit roots, and the Formation Hall which is suitable for earth spirit roots. There's also the possibility of becoming their personal disciple if they perform well."

Liu Nongjie also nodded in understanding, the priority was to recover his physical strength as soon as possible, after all, he had just expended far too much energy at the Heavenly Stairs.

Lin Ziyun also understood this, and then said that he would let Nonjie rest for a moment while he observed first.

While Nonjie was closing his breath to recuperate, a voice called out from not far away.

He only saw a young man dressed in a rich and noble manner with a group of people behind him come over to inquire about Lin Ziyun.

That rich and noble man said, ''Farewell, Miss Lin, it's been a few years since I've seen you. Are you also here to join the Tian Xuan Sect, which one of you is this one sitting next to you?"

It seemed as though this had been rehearsed for a long time, and the people at the back began to scramble to cater to it, "Probably Miss Lin's lackey ahaha. If you sit here and bump into someone, you'll dirty someone's clothes. Dressed like this it couldn't be that you don't have money to eat and came to the sect to try your luck."

The rising and falling laughter made many people look towards this place, but a sound of ridicule could not shake the teenager's concentration, perhaps it was too lazy to pay attention to it or perhaps it was just swallowing his anger, but Liu Nongjie's silence was exchanged for even more wanton ridicule and mockery.

But at this moment, a "flower language sound", rich son of the brow in front of a sword.

The body of the sword was patterned with flowers, and the hilt was engraved with the language of flowers, it was really a good sword.

A high-pitched voice followed, "He is my friend, if you wish to insult him, I will no longer be polite."

Sensing that Lin Ziyun was not joking, the rich man and the men behind him also left with a grunt.

Lin Ziyun was worried that Liu Renjie would have his mind affected by what he had just said, and when he turned his head, the teenager was looking at the young girl in front of him with his eyes wide open, who had dissuaded the troublemakers for him.

Nonjie said, "Thank you Miss Lin."

Lin Ziyun also inserted her waist and raised her head in a showy manner, "A small thing."

After the situation was over, the presiding elder also returned to the square to announce that the second screening had officially begun, and everyone whose name had been changed could go to the relative ring to challenge.

There were a total of fifteen rings in the square, and although there were many rings, it took a while to complete the screening.

After a period of time, Liu Nongjie's name was named and the ring he challenged was set as ring number five.

After nodding with Lin Ziyun, he headed to ring number five.

Upon arriving at the ring, he only saw a tall and thin teenager also standing at the ring.

The spectator disciple at the side signaled the two to start when they were ready.

After a while, the tall and thin man on the opposite side of the ring suddenly changed his stance and rushed straight to Nonjie's body, and Nonjie quickly dodged using the Dragon Steps.

However, the tall and thin man rushed behind Im Kit with the intention of defeating him with his short sword.

Nonjie, who had already sensed this, snickered and used his sword technique to force his opponent to dodge in an instant.

After this move, both of them understand in each other's eyes that the other party is not a simple character, the tall thin man is ready to build up his strength, with a means of possession of aura rushed to nonjie, he intends to force nonjie to use the sword to avoid him, so that he can use his own hard-practiced sword moves to defeat him in a smooth manner.

At this point, Nonjie did use his sword art to slash and hit his opponent's short sword instead of defending. The tall and thin man also secretly laughed at this situation, as if the balance of victory had been tilted to his side.

He used the body position difference to perform his own sword move, a kind of use of their own speed and agility and then add the fusion attached to the short sword's aura to increase the sharpness of a rapid succession of stabbing Liu Nongjie.

But at this time, Liu Nongjie did not dodge the tall and thin man's sword move, he used his experience of practicing sword for many years to predict the trajectory of most of the short swords. Although not all dodge, but at least the vital did not get hurt.

This move had already made the man on the other side look silly, seemingly not believing that the young man in front of him, who was even younger than himself, was able to predict his own sword moves that he had been practicing for years based on his experience alone.

This was the experience accumulated from years of practicing the sword and confidence in himself, he was convinced that he could defeat his enemy, this was a kind of invincible mind in the same realm.

Seemingly feeling that he would be defeated, he simply tried to use his own masterstroke.

Sensing the determination of the man across from him, Liu Nongjie changed his previous casual feeling and looked at him with a look of admiration.

Both of them coincidentally jumped to the back to pause, and when a few breaths had passed, both sides also began to make sword moves to show respect for both sides.

"Ink Flower Fills the Sky" "Martial Tiger Out of the Mountain"

The two sharp swords clashed together, and the next ring was also affected by this resulting in a pause in the competition.

This duel had already alarmed the elders on the stage, and they teamed up to use formations to temporarily seal off ring number five, otherwise it would spread to others.

On the other hand, the Patriarch and the rest of the Elders on the stage were commenting on Ring 5 with a posture of tasting jade.

When the smoke cleared, the tall and thin man was already kneeling on one knee, unable to fight again despite his best efforts.

On the other hand, although Liu Nongjie was also injured, but compared to the tall and thin man was much lighter.

Seeing this, the disciple watching the battle announced in a loud voice: "The ninth station of the fifth ring, Liu Renjie wins."

Liu Nongjie is not in a hurry to get off the stage, walked straight to the front of the other side and said: "You have a sharp sword, when the sword is complete, we will compare once."

The tall and thin man also gave a bitter smile, "Good, by then I will be stronger than I am now, and also my name is Wang Pi."

Afterwards, the two men also went down to the stage to wait for the results.

Lin Ziyun was also named to the tenth ring for the duel, and the duel opponent was actually one of the men behind the rich man just now.

This delighted Lin Ziyun, and with a single move, he chopped his opponent off the ring.

The spectator disciples in ring number ten also then shouted, "Ring number ten, battle eleven, Lin Ziyun wins."

Almost everyone in the room applauded for Lin Ziyun at ring number ten, but Lin Ziyun sensed that they weren't applauding because they thought their strength had won over the other party, but simply because her grandfather was a great Confucian scholar, and for the sake of trying to see if she could make a good impression in front of the great Confucian scholar.

When she stepped down from the stage with a dejected face, a teenager applauded vigorously in front of her.

The young man was smiling, and his bright smile made all the negative influences in the young girl's heart dissipate, and then the two of them returned to the previous location to wait for the screening to end.

Time passed in a flash, and the fiercely competitive second screening also ended after the Sovereign's order.

Everyone waited nervously for the results, and many were silently praying that they would be able to join the sect.

The presiding elder was already standing on the stage, utilizing spiritual energy to enhance the volume so that everyone could hear.

"Mo Listen, Huang Yu Ting, Liu Renjie, Lin Ziyun, Wang Pi...."

Liu Renjie and Lin Ziyun smiled happily even after hearing their names being read out.

At this time, Wang Bi also walked over to congratulate Liu Renjie and Lin Ziyun for successfully joining the sect.

Liu Renjie also backhandedly congratulated Wang Bi because all rings have winners and losers, the winning side enjoys and the losing side suffers.

Originally, Wang Bi felt that he shouldn't be able to join the sect, but as his name was read out, the tension hidden in his heart disappeared.

A few families were happy and a few were sad, those whose names were not read out were teleported to the bottom of the mountain by the elders before they had time to be sad.

The rest of the people were gathered in the square, at a glance there were thousands of people when they came, but only less than a hundred of them could really join the sect.

The Patriarch and the rest of the elders glanced at each other before signaling the presiding elder to explain the selection session later.

The rest of the square was looking forward to the selection later, but Lin Ziyun stood next to Liu Nongjie without any expression, seemingly knowing what to do later on.
