Latest website: The second round of exams lasts for three days. All students must stay in the Holy Court to learn swordsmanship.

You can only leave after the exam is over.

Two days passed quickly.

Xu Hai put his hands behind his back and looked coldly as he patrolled the examination room and asked Nie Wenlong: "What sword level has Xu Canlan reached?"

Nie Wenlong looked solemn and said: "Report to senior brother, the eighth sword."

Xu Hai nodded with satisfaction and said: "Xu Canlan is the second master of Xu Sheng's generation. He has extremely high attainments in the way of the sword and has already reached the peak of the sword. Seven days in advance, I will I got the mental formula for the Thirteen Soul-Chasing Swords from my master and gave it to him, and he really did not disappoint me. The eighth sword is very good."

The person who presided over the second round of assessment of the swordsmanship department was Xu Hai's master, Half Saint Lingyuan.

The Thirteen Soul-Chasing Swords were also swordsmanship and martial arts created by Half-Saint Lingyuan seven days ago.

As a genius of Xu Sheng Clan and a disciple of Lingyuan Half Saint, Xu Hai had obtained the secret formula of the Thirteen Soul-Chasing Swords seven days ago and passed it on to the second generation of Xu Sheng Clan. Genius Xu Canglan.

Therefore, before the Holy Academy examination, Xu Canlan had already studied the mental formulas seven days in advance, and had already almost studied the Thirteen Soul-Chasing Swords.

Now, you only need to practice the sword moves and integrate the sword moves with the mental skills, and then you can successfully practice this set of sword skills.

In two days, Xu Canlan had successfully mastered the seven swords and began to practice the eighth sword.

"There is still one day left. Xu Canlan should be able to successfully practice the tenth sword. The Sword Heart Pill is already in my possession."

Thinking of this, the corners of Xu Hai's mouth couldn't help but curve.

The reason why he told Xu Canlan the formula of the Thirteen Soul-Chasing Swords in advance was of course in the hope that Xu Canlan would take first place in the second round of assessment and help him win the Sword Heart Pill.

Twenty years ago, Xu Hai had reached the peak state of following the sword with his heart. His sword skills were getting deeper and deeper, but he could not condense his sword intention.

Therefore, he must obtain the Sword Heart Pill and reach the realm of Sword Heart Transparency.

As long as tomorrow passes, the Jianxin Pill will be his.

Nie Wenlong stared in the direction of Zhang Ruochen and said: "Senior Brother Xu Hai, Zhang Ruochen has a clear sword mind. He must be practicing swordsmanship very quickly. He will probably become a formidable opponent of Xu Canlan."

Xu Hai snorted coldly, showing a bit of disdain, and said: "It doesn't matter how high the realm is, there are only three days, he is just a mortal, not a saint, how can he succeed in practicing swordsmanship so quickly? Didn't you see , he is still studying the mind method and hasn’t started practicing the sword yet?”

Practicing swordsmanship is divided into two parts: understanding the mental method and practicing sword moves.

Mental skills include the coordination of footwork, the movement of Qi, and the key points of swordsmanship.

Only by thoroughly understanding these three things can you start practicing sword moves.

The purpose of practicing sword moves is to integrate the sword technique with the warrior's footwork, as well as the way of using the true energy in the warrior's body.

Swordsmanship and warriors form a whole, reaching the point where they can do whatever they want.

When you take action, you don't have to think at all, the sword technique has already been used, killing people with the sword.

For example, Zhang Ruochen practiced a certain sword technique in his previous life. In this life, he must practice it again so that the sword technique can form a whole with this body and reach the state of freedom and even transparency.

In other words, only by practicing swordsmanship as a part of the body, such as hands, feet, eyes, and nose, can you achieve the state of freedom.

Only by practicing swordsmanship to the point where body and soul are integrated can one achieve the state of clear sword heart.

If you cannot reach this point, then what you practice will always be hollow sword moves, and you can only be regarded as a reckless man and cannot become a swordsman.

Just as Xu Hai finished speaking, Zhang Ruochen, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly began to practice sword moves.

Zhang Ruochen used his hand as a sword and pointed it out with one finger. Immediately, seven hand shadows appeared. They separated like a goddess scattering flowers and struck seven points in the void.

"Pop!"

Seven blasts of air rang out in a row, like the sound the tips of seven swords made when they touched the stone wall.

"Senior Brother Xu Hai, Zhang Ruochen has already started practicing his sword moves. He just used the first of the Thirteen Soul-Chasing Swords, 'Seven Kills of Dead Souls'." Nie Wenlong said.

Xu Hai's face darkened, and he immediately turned around and looked at Zhang Ruochen.

It was already the last day. Not only Zhang Ruochen, but also other students stood up and started practicing sword moves.

After Zhang Ruochen performed his first move, he was like a rock, sitting cross-legged on the ground, motionless, and did not continue to practice.

"Unexpectedly, after reaching the state of clear sword heart, you only need to understand the formula of penetrating the heart, and you can practice sword moves in your mind with the heart of the sword, and you can also reach the state of great success."

Previously, Zhang Ruochen had been rehearsing the first move "Seven Kills of Dead Souls" in his mind. He just tried it and it actually succeeded.

Zhang Ruochen continued to enjoy this mysterious realm.

In the sea of ​​qi, the heart of Sword Intent transformed into a human form and began to practice the second move "Broken Soul and Listening to the Wind".

In the distance, Nie Wenlong saw Zhang Ruochen motionless, frowned and said, "What is that kid doing? He only performed one move and then became motionless again. There is only one day left, and he hasn't started practicing sword moves yet?"

Xu Hai smiled coldly and said: "Don't worry about him. He is probably too self-righteous and wants to understand all the mental formulas of the Thirteen Sword Techniques before he starts practicing the sword moves. You can only give him time. , but not that much.”

They have not achieved the transparency of the sword's heart, so of course they will not understand the mystery of the sword's heart. They have no idea that Zhang Ruochen has already understood all the formulas of the thirteen sword techniques and is now rehearsing the sword moves in his mind.

In the other direction, Xu Canglan of the Xu Sheng clan has successfully practiced the eighth sword and started to practice the ninth sword.

"Why is that student from the Xu Sheng clan so powerful? He has successfully mastered the Eight Swords. He has such a high talent?"

Duanmu Xingling was very unconvinced, staring closely in Xu Canglan's direction with a pair of round starry eyes.

On the Pilgrimage Ladder, Duanmu Xingling and Xu Canlan fought against each other, but they didn't think each other was that powerful. At least, if she releases her sealed cultivation, she can cross the two realms and defeat Xu Canlan.

But now, she has fully comprehended the Thirteen Soul-Chasing Swords, but she has only just succeeded in practicing the Seven Swords.

Could it be that a genius student from Xu Sheng's sect had a higher level of understanding than she, a holy girl from the Demon Cult?

"There must be something wrong. I don't believe his understanding is really that high."

Duanmu Xingling was very unconvinced and continued to study swordsmanship with all his strength, striving to surpass Xu Canlan. It would be too shameful to be surpassed by him.

Three days finally ended.

On this day, the examiner, Half Saint Lingyuan, came in person and sat at the top.

Next to Semi-Saint Lingyuan, there is a jade lotus platform suspended. Semi-Saint Lingshu, who is only three inches tall, is sitting cross-legged on the lotus platform.

She was dressed in red, carrying a sword on her back, and was invisible in a white mist, like a goddess from the fairy world.

Although Lingshu Half Saint is young, he is the disciple of Master Xuanji Academy, and his status in the Holy Academy is still above that of Lingyuan Half Saint.

Even Half Saint Lingyuan respected her very much and did not dare to neglect her.

All the students who applied for the swordsmanship department stepped onto the martial arts stage one after another and tried their best to display the swordsmanship they had learned and strive to perform at their best.

If you can be favored by a Semi-Saint and become the successor of a Semi-Saint, you will reach the sky in one step.

The first student to board the martial arts stage was a young woman with an early stage of Tianji Realm cultivation.

"Seven Kills of Dead Souls."

"Broken soul listens to the wind."

"Standing to the soul."

The woman tried to use the fourth move, but failed.

However, after successfully practicing the three-move sword technique, he was barely qualified and passed the second round of the exam.

The second student to board the martial arts stage, his cultivation level has reached the small extreme level of Tianji Realm. Among the students who participated in the Holy Academy assessment this time, he can also be regarded as a first-rate powerhouse.

However, he failed and could only barely master two sword skills, and was ultimately unable to enter the Holy Court.

"He was able to cultivate to the small extreme level of Tianji Realm before he was thirty-five years old, and his talent is already very high. Unfortunately, his understanding of the sword is very poor, and he did not meet the enrollment requirements of the Holy Academy."

Many people felt sorry for him, and also lamented that the threshold of the Holy Academy was too high, and even top geniuses might be rejected.

In the next test, more than 70% of the students were able to practice at least three sword techniques and pass the test.

Twenty percent of the students can only practice two sword techniques.

Less than 10% of the students can only practice one sword technique.

Among them, there were three or five people who couldn't even practice a single sword move.

However, even so, it can be seen that the quality of the students who came to take the Holy Academy examination is indeed very high, and they are all elites selected at all levels.

If those ordinary talented Tianji realm warriors were allowed to practice such advanced sword techniques as the Thirteen Soul-Chasing Swords, even if they were given thirty days, let alone three days, they might not be able to successfully practice even one of the sword techniques.

Through the practice of swordsmanship, one can also see the level of understanding of the students.

There were nearly a thousand students practicing swordsmanship in front of them, and about 700 of them were able to practice three swordsmanships. There are about eighty people who can practice the four sword techniques. Only ten people practiced the five sword techniques.

No one has practiced the six-move sword technique.

Only one descendant of the saint family has practiced the seven-move sword technique, which is already the best result.

"I actually practiced seven moves of swordsmanship. I didn't expect that among those saints, there are geniuses with such high understanding." Duanmu Xingling glanced at Huang Yanchen and said: "Sister Chen, how successful have you been in practicing? sword?"

"Five swords." Huang Yanchen said.

In terms of understanding, Huang Yanchen can only be considered to be at the top level, not yet at the heaven-defying level.

In three days, he understood the Seven Swords, which is a level that defies the heavens. Even in the eyes of those semi-saints, it is quite an achievement.
