Chapter 484 The mysterious man in black
"Who is the one?"
Confused in his heart, Lin Hao withdrew his gaze and stopped searching, still standing there with an indifferent expression.
"Again!"
But then, he keenly sensed that the mysterious cold gaze was staring at him again.
"Jing Ke."
Lin Hao's heart sank slightly and he summoned Jing Ke directly.
In the invisible form, Jing Ke flew quietly and silently to the top of Lin Hao's head.
Immediately, with the help of the pet's shared vision function, Lin Hao quickly found the source of the crowd's gaze.
There, stood a man in black with a cold and handsome face and extremely gloomy eyes.
Staring at Lin Hao at this moment, he was like a wild beast that wanted to choose people and devour them, his eyes full of malice.
Seeing this, Lin Hao had a trace of doubt in his heart.
Because this person looks very strange, as if he has never met each other before, let alone anything that offends him.
But looking at the hateful look in his eyes, it seems that he has some deep hatred for himself!
"Did Huang Xingyi come to deal with me?"
Lin Hao secretly guessed.
It shouldn't be possible.
But soon, he rejected this idea.
If you are just a thug, you definitely don't have this kind of heartfelt hatred.
As he was guessing in his mind, Lin Hao felt more and more unbelievable.
After taking note of the guy's facial features, Lin Hao recalled Jing Ke.
Now that you have found the person who is spying on you, he is not in the dark now. You can just be more careful in the future.
"quiet!"
After waiting for a while, a deep shout suddenly sounded in the square.
The chaotic crowd suddenly became quiet.
Immediately, he saw three figures floating in the sky above the square.
The person in the middle is a gray-haired old man dressed as an elder. His face looks old, but he has a strong aura.
Beside him, two young men stood in the air, obviously very high-spirited.
Lin Hao was no stranger to the two of them.
One of them is Wei Jiyuan.
The other young man was Huang Xingyi, who had some trouble with him last night.
They are the person in charge of this assessment and serve as the assessment assistants to the elders of the sect.
This job may seem simple, but the deep meaning behind it is to gild it, as if to train them into the next elder-level sect position.
It can be seen that Wei Jiyuan and Huang Xingyi are in a competitive relationship.
As soon as Wei Jiyuan appeared, he looked around.
Soon, Lin Hao's presence was found in the crowd.
He was obviously a little pleased that the latter actually came to take the assessment.
The two looked at each other, nodded secretly, and said hello silently.
At this time, Huang Xingyi's eyes were not idle either.
When he noticed Lin Hao, there was a coldness in his eyes, as if he had already figured out how to play with the former.
Lin Hao ignored this.
To be precise, it should be ignored directly.
What really caught his attention was the cold man in black just now.
After all, this kind of unknown and strange enemy is often the most difficult to guard against.
"Elder Li, the time has come."
Wei Jiyuan looked at the sky, and then said to the gray-haired old man with a humble face.
"Well, let's get started."
Li Chuang's face was indifferent, he looked down at the many young warriors in the square below, and said in a hoarse voice: "I hope that this session will produce a few good talents worthy of being cultivated by the sect."
After muttering to himself, his voice suddenly became clearer, "First of all, welcome to Jiuxuan Sect to participate in this year's recruitment assessment."
"The first step is to ring the bell you see now."
"Due to the excess number of participants this time, the difficulty of the assessment has been slightly increased, from the previous three to five."
What?
Five tones?!
As soon as these words came out, the crowd in the venue was shocked.
However, almost all of the young warriors present were participating in the assessment for the first time. They had no personal experience with the so-called five bells, and obviously did not have much strong reaction.
Therefore, after a brief period of surprise, everyone's sudden mood swings quickly calmed down.
"Which one of you is going to demonstrate?"
"I come!"
As soon as Elder Li Chuang's voice fell, Huang Xingyi took the lead and flew out directly.
He seemed to have no intention of being humble at all towards his rival Wei Jiyuan.
This kind of showy demonstration is the best time to build up popularity.
"It's Huang Xingyi!"
"The chief disciple of Jiuxuan Sect Huoyun Pavilion!"
Huang Xingyi's fame is obviously not small.
As soon as he appeared on the stage, the crowd suddenly burst into discussions.
Immediately, under the gaze of many eyes, Huang Xingyi landed in front of the bell and tripod on the stone platform.
In front of the giant bell, Huang Xingyi stood proudly.
Wave after wave of powerful fire spiritual energy whizzed out from his body, suddenly forming a substantial red light swirl.
"What a strong breath."
"Such spiritual power fluctuations should be at the fourth level of the Holy Realm."
Seeing this scene, the eyes of the young warriors flashed, and most of them stared at Huang Xingyi with reverence.
In response to the surprised praises from around him, Huang Xingyi raised the corners of his mouth, obviously enjoying this feeling of being surrounded by stars.
Immediately, he clenched a fist with his right hand, brought out strong power ripples, and struck hard at the bell tripod.
Only a deep "bang" sound was heard!
The bell tripod shook violently, the lines on it flashed with light, and a long and deep bell began to ring.
When the bell stopped ringing, it struck exactly eighteen times.
Compared with the five tones stipulated in the assessment, it is far more than several times!
"Amazing!"
Seeing this result, there was an uproar in the stadium.
"Huang Xingyi doesn't seem to have used all his strength yet. If he goes all out, he will definitely be able to make more than twenty sounds!"
"How is that possible? It should be over thirty!"
Some young warriors who regarded Huang Xingyi as an object of admiration began to flatter him with confidence.
In the crowd, Lin Hao watched in silence.
There is no surprise at all. Huang Xingyi is the chief disciple of Jiuxuan Sect Huoyun Pavilion and one of the strongest people of the younger generation.
It would be surprising if such results were not achieved.
Listening to the discussions around him, some people even said that Wei Jiyuan was not comparable to Huang Xingyi, and his future martial arts achievements would definitely be much higher than his.
At this, Lin Hao sneered in his heart.
He may not know about others, but Wei Jiyuan will be the deacon in charge of all order in the Nine Halls Sect in the future.
The latter's achievements are something unknown people like Huang Xingyi don't even have the qualifications to look up to!
"Next, you will conduct the assessment according to the demonstration just now, let's begin!"
At this time, Elder Li Chuang, suspended in the void, issued an order for this assessment to officially begin.
Suddenly, the crowd in the venue undoubtedly became commotion.
Chapter completed!
