At this time, under the leadership of the previous man, Wanyan Fuchan and others had already arrived at the end of Jiuqu River through the spiritual formation, which was the entrance of the mountain gate of Evergreen Valley.

Seeing several figures standing at the gate of the mountain, the man first bent over and saluted respectfully, then signaled everyone behind him to come to the light curtain to watch the performance of the candidates.

Except for Wanyan Fuchan, these people are almost all patriarchs or elders of various major families. They are all cunning and know that these people are extraordinary, so they all stand behind those people. Fortunately, the light curtain is big enough, and they are not worried about not being able to see clearly about their children.

In the light curtain, Zhao Fa and Xie Li gathered a group of candidates around him, and a group of people were looking for the location of Da Wang Peak. For example, Ni Chan, Jiang Jihu and others were acting alone, with few teams.

The most eye-catching one is the scene where Yao Ruoyu surpasses more than 20 people and is chatting and laughing and harvesting the candidate's cards.

Seeing that Yao Ruoyu had harvested more than 20 candidate cards by himself, many patriarchs and elders had convulsed their faces, especially those families who were harvested, their eyes were even more angry. They hated Yao Ruoyu for being cruel and their younger generations, but more than 20 people could not compete for one person.

Compared to other people's anger or shock, Wanyan Fuchan seemed quite calm. However, she, who has always been charming and enchanting, rarely showed such tranquility, but in fact, it shows that she is in anger.

(Heroes save the beauty... It seems that we should have a good talk when your assessment is over.)

While the accompanying people were thinking differently, the man who had previously put the candidate card in Wuyi Palace frowned and looked at Yao Ruoyu in the light curtain. Although he was passing through the light curtain, he could still feel the resentment in the sword force.

"This kind of swordsmanship is only inconsistent with my quiet and elegant artistic conception of Evergreen Valley." After pondering for a few breaths, the man suddenly said.

The old man who had spoken for Yao Ruoyu before laughed and said, "Otherwise, the sword master killed and killed, which means that this son's heart is turbulent. I have been weak for a long time in the Evergreen Valley. All the disciples in the valley are like scholars. After a long time, they may not have the fighting spirit. When this person comes, it may help the disciples regain some vitality."

Seeing the old man objected, the man hesitated a little and then bowed and said, "Since Lord Ninghe said that, then Mu had nothing to say."

*—*—*—*—*

While counting the candidate cards with a smile, Yao Ruoyu suddenly felt a chill on his back and looked around with caution. After confirming that no one was lurking, he frowned and withdrew his gaze, then took out ten candidate cards and threw them to the girl he had saved before, and smiled and said, "You."

"Me?" The girl was stunned when she saw this, and then panicked, "No, I can't ask for it!"

After smiling, Yao Ruoyu waved his hand and said, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to get so many candidate cards, so I've divided the 50% share, oh, a few more yuan will be considered labor fees."

Ten candidate cards can undoubtedly add a lot of points to the assessment, which is also very tempting for the girl. However, after a long time of struggling, she still endured the pain and pushed the candidate cards back, shook her head and said, "My sister said that you can't take something that belongs to her."

"Then how about you just take one?" Seeing the girl insisting, Yao Ruoyu didn't force herself and asked with a smile, "No matter what, you must have a candidate card to pass the first level. To put it bluntly, with your strength, there should be little chance of getting the candidate card."

The girl immediately flattened her mouth depressedly when she heard this, but she knew that what Yao Ruoyu said made sense, so she hesitated for a while, and silently took a card of candidates and whispered: "I will repay you this favor in the future."

Nodded, Yao Ruoyu used spiritual techniques to freeze all the more than 20 candidate cards into a lump, then lifted them up and carried them on his shoulders, and smiled and said, "Then let's go, Da Wangfeng is there."

"Thank you." The girl nodded, put away the round blade in her hand, and then carefully followed Yao Ruoyu towards the King's Peak.

After following Yao Ruoyu for a while, the girl seemed to remember something and said, "My name is Li Shuyi, I am from Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province. My father is the city lord of Jingdezhen. I just heard them say, are you a vassal king?"

"Yes, my name is Yao Ruoyu." Yao Ruoyu smiled and said with a smile.

Opening his eyes wide, Li Shuyi said in surprise: "You are really a vassal king? Then why did you come to participate in the introductory assessment of Evergreen Valley? Where is your country? Is it in the West?"

After looking at the girl in surprise, Yao Ruoyu realized that the other party did not know him, and smiled and said, "My vassal state is in Hezhou and Chongqing Hezhou."

After blinking a few times, Li Shuyi suddenly exclaimed: "It's true? I know Hezhou, but isn't that the city of my dynasty? How did it become your vassal state?"

"There are many things in the middle. When you look back, you can ask your father, he should know." Yao Ruoyu was naturally not interested in introducing her one by one, so he waved his hand and ended the topic simply.

But he wanted to end it, but the girl refused. Li Shuyi strode to him several times, staring at Shui Lingling's big eyes, her cheeks bulged slightly, and she asked very cutely: "Then why do you only have the third realm? Did you just inherit the throne? By the way, you haven't answered why you want to join Evergreen Valley?"

Listening to the curious baby next to him, Yao Ruoyu didn't realize that he was so angry that he suddenly regretted that he had just rescued her, or that he could actually wait until Long Zhen stole her candidate card and then take action to harvest it. That would be quite good.

Just when Yao Ruoyu was regretting, the two had already walked out of the dense forest and came to the foot of the Dawang Peak.

Standing below, Da Wang Peak was afraid that it was hundreds of feet high, with a height of steepness on the top and a steep bottom. The two walked around the mountain and now there was only one side of it with an extremely narrow passage, but this passage was too narrow, probably only a few feet away. Yao Ruoyu lost a lot in the past year after crossing the journey, otherwise he might not be able to squeeze through.

Seeing Yao Ruoyu frowning and looking up at the mountain, Li Shuyi stood behind him with a good baby look and said curiously: "Why don't you go up?"

When Yao Ruoyu heard this, he looked back at the direction he came, thought for a few moments, and then nodded, "Let's go." After saying that, he walked into the passage without waiting for Li Shuyi to ask.

This is a stone path built between the cracks of the mountain. There are stone steps. After walking along the stone steps for a while, the stone path gradually became narrower, and many places even require two people to pass by side.

Fortunately, they are all practitioners, and they are not weak in physical strength, so their steps are naturally not slow. But in a moment, they have arrived halfway up the mountain and saw a clear spring on the mountainside. A stone tablet is engraved with the three words "Cold Pond Spring". Next to the pool is a stone path, and further out of the stone path is a rock platform protruding from the mountain wall.

"I know here, Hantan Spring, Zhang Xianyan!" Li Shuyi suddenly shouted excitedly.

Yao Ruoyu glanced at her and raised her eyebrows and said, "What's special?"

When he asked this, Li Shuyi was stunned at first, then said angrily: "No, nothing special."

"Of course there is no characteristic here, but this is the end of the first level."

Suddenly, a young man in a gorgeous robe walked out from the end of the stone path behind the spring water and looked at the two of them with a smile.

Li Shuyi was immediately overjoyed when she heard this. She hurriedly took out the two candidate cards on her body and smiled and said, "Then we will pass the first level, right?"

The young man nodded and smiled and said, "That's right." As he spoke, he was already smiling at the piece of ice on Yao Ruoyu's shoulder. When he saw that there were more than twenty candidate cards inside, his face changed slightly.

Seeing this, Yao Ruoyu took off the ice cube on his shoulder and said calmly: "Just leave it to you, right?"

"That's right." The young man nodded.

When Li Shuyi heard this, she hurriedly handed the two candidate cards to the other party, and Yao Ruoyu also picked up the lump and handed it to the young man.

Seeing that the man was about to take over the ice cube from Yao Ruoyu's hand, Yao Ruoyu's eyes suddenly flashed sharply, and his palm pushed. The ice cube twisted and changed in an instant, turning into an ice sword and stabbed out when he was stabbed out of his chest.

The sword came very suddenly. Before Li Shuyi could even react, she felt a flash in front of her eyes. The young man was already laughing and flipped it out, and at the same time threw the candidate card he had handed over directly.

First, there were two crackling sounds, and then there were a series of dense metal sounds. It was Yao Ruoyu who first caught two candidate cards, and then the more than twenty candidate cards fell from it because of the ice-filled sword.

After landing, the young man smiled and took a few steps back, and asked with interest: "How did you show it?"

"You are too young, and..." Yao Ruoyu said coldly after looking at this person, "The examiner has said before that you need to reach the top of the peak in the first level, and this is just a halfway up the mountain."

Only then did Li Shuyi realize that she had been cheated, so she quickly picked up the candidate cards all over the ground and glared at the other party angrily. However, at this moment, a girl's laughter came from the corner at the end of the mountain road: "Haha, Yue Jun, I just said you can't deceive anyone, right?"

"Please! I've been tricked into one at least, okay?" Yue Jun scratched his head and looked back with a wry smile.

A figure flashed, and a girl walked out from behind the corner of the stone path and smiled and said, "That was also seen through."

"Have you said enough?" Squinted his eyes, Yao Ruoyu sneered, "You are brave enough to deceive my candidate card." As he spoke, he had slowly pressed the hilt of the Shuangxi Sword.

Seeing that Yao Ruoyu seemed to be taking action, Yue Jun quickly took a step back and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, even if I cheated, I will return it to you."

Seeing that the situation was not good, the girl quickly came up and smiled, "King of Hezhou, Yue Jun just likes to joke and has no malice."

After looking at the two of them in a fixed manner, Yao Ruoyu slowly let go of the hilt of the sword and sneered: "If there is any malice, the one I just cut out is not the Ice Sword."

Yue Jun himself is also a young genius at the ninth level of the third level, so he is naturally quite proud. Seeing Yao Ruoyu's words with disdain, he was immediately angry. However, when Yao Ruoyu looked at him coldly, his heart was beaten and he quickly dispelled the anger in his heart.

"The little girl Gongsun Zhan, I have heard of King Daming of Hezhou for a long time. When I saw her today, she was indeed extremely powerful." Seeing Yao Ruoyu dispersing his sword force, the girl quickly bowed.

"Miss Gongsun is polite." Seeing that Gongsun Zhan was respectful and polite, Yao Ruoyu couldn't continue to get angry, so he nodded and said calmly.

"Are you the first to arrive here?" Li Shuyi couldn't help asking.

"Yes! Yue Jun and I are lucky, so I found this place first, but this guy has to cheat people from behind, saying that he is mature and can definitely cheat people." He glared at Yue Jun helplessly, and Gongsun Zhan replied.

Yue Jun immediately said dissatisfied: "I have deceived someone!"

"It's just this little sister," Gongsun Zhan said helplessly after looking at Li Shuyi whose face suddenly turned red, "Do you really feel accomplished when you cheat her?"

Yue Jun was stunned when he heard this, and then turned his head in a little disappointed manner. Li Shuyi naturally became more ashamed and angry.

Yao Ruoyu had no intention of joking with them. He glanced at the end of the mountain road and asked, "Is it the top of the peak when I go up?"

"Yes, we haven't gone up yet. It's better to meet by chance than to meet each other. Let's go together?" Gongsun Zhan said with a smile.

"Okay." Yao Ruoyu did not refuse and nodded in agreement.
