On the bluestone path leading to the first training ground on the north side of the Red Castle in Desolate Villa, three young men carrying brooms lined up.

"We just came back last night, and we were called to the practice field early this morning to clear the snow. It must be so miserable for us." Yun Jingchen, who was walking at the end, rubbed his sleepy eyes and yawned.

"Look at Jingchen, this is also a kind of practice." Lu Chengshi comforted.

"What kind of practice is this!" Yun Jingchen gritted his teeth.

"Anyway, you have lost your sword, and you won't be able to practice much until the villa issues a new one." Yu Youci, who was walking at the front, said with a smile.

Yun Jingchen slapped his forehead with a palm, stroked his cheek downwards, and made an expression that was uglier than crying: "I lost my sword on my first mission, will Teacher Bu Shechuan kill me?"

Beat it to pieces..."

"Can't you just tell him that your sword was borrowed by Senior Brother Yu?" Lu Chengshi took it for granted and helped him out.

"Hush!" Yu Youci, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and turned back to glare at the two of them: "You must never say this! Have you forgotten! Yu Yanzhi swore never to use a sword again before he left!"

Yun Jingchen and Lu Chengshi were stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that they almost sold their senior brother.

"Hey, hey, let's talk it over first. No one of us is allowed to mention anything about Yu Yanzhi, do you understand?" Yu Youci suddenly opened his arms and wrapped them around the necks of his two companions, and warned them in a serious tone.

The two nodded seriously, neither of them wanted to cause any unexpected trouble to Yu Shiqi.

"Have you three met Yu Yanzhi when you went out this time?" A sudden voice from behind shocked the three of them so much that their shoulders shook at the same time.

Yu Youci curled his lips and was the first to turn around and face their common teacher - Bu Shechuan, the current chief Yunzhongjian combat instructor of the Huangwu Sect. Yun Jingchen and Lu Chengshi also turned around helplessly and followed Yu Youci to face their teacher.

salute.

"Why aren't you talking?" Bu Shechuan frowned displeased and motioned for the three of them to follow him into the first training ground.

The snow on the huge field has been swept away and piled up on both sides. In the open space, there is a short-haired woman wearing a thin training uniform who is repeatedly practicing the very basic thrusting sword posture, horizontal sword posture and slashing sword posture.

"Are you new here...so diligent." Lu Chengshi murmured.

"Wait a minute, don't you think that person looks familiar?" Yu Youci opened her eyes in disbelief and pointed at the woman practicing the sword.

"Looks familiar? We three swordsmen of the same period have stopped practicing these three basic sword styles a long time ago." Yun Jingchen said suspiciously.

Bu Shechuan glanced at the three of them, stepped forward and shouted to the woman practicing the sword: "Stop for a moment, come here."

"Yes, Master." The woman raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, put away her sword and ran over.

She ran closer and when she met Yu Youci and others, both parties were stunned.

"Huh--"

"Huh--"

Both sides made surprised sounds at the same time.

"Miss Baili! Why are you here? And what's going on with your hair..." Yun Jingchen opened his mouth in an exaggerated manner, pointing at Baili Xuan's short hair that barely covered her neck and asked in surprise.

Yu Youci slapped Yun Jingchen's rude hand that was pointing at him with one palm: "Next time, don't finish everything I want to say!"

Baili Xuan smiled shyly, holding her sword and bowing to the three of them: "Teacher said before that he would arrange for me to be trained by three fellow apprentices of similar age. It turns out it is you three..."

Bu Shechuan said at this time: "Since we all know each other, it will be easy. Yu Youci, Lu Chengshi, Yun Jingchen, you three, listen, starting from today I will conduct special training for you and reassess you as Yunzhong Sword

is it suitable."

The three of them felt very confused about this. Yu Youci was the first to protest: "Teacher Bu! Aren't we already members of Yunzhongjian? Why do we need to be re-examined? What's going on?"

"Yes, why do you need to reassess us?" Yun Jingchen asked nervously.

"I have read the file report on this outing written by the leader of the Dawn Sect. Although she was very tolerant and gave all three of you excellent evaluations, in my opinion, this kind of loving protection is meaningless." Bu Shekawa said on the back.

He held his hands and said slowly, "To put it bluntly, the performance of the three of you in this operation completely failed to meet my expectations for Yunzhongjian."

Bu Shechuan's sharp criticism hit the three people's minds. They were originally a little guilty about the performance of this operation. Even if Teng Yining gave them some good words in the evaluation of the dossier, the content of the operation cannot be fictionalized. Bu Shechuan

After Chuan took a closer look, he would realize that the three of them actually played no role.

"So starting from today, the three of you will train with Hu Yan in the morning and be responsible for instructing her basic skills." Bu Shechuan ordered, "I will give you three new training content in the afternoon, and the assessment will be seven days later. The same as before.

, this assessment is also carried out in the form of team tasks.”

"Then there's nothing to worry about!" Yun Jingchen rubbed his nose and said confidently, "We were able to pass the first time, and this time there will be no problem."

Bu Shechuan smiled slyly and added: "I would like to remind you that she will also participate in the assessment with you in seven days. My evaluation criteria will be based on a comprehensive consideration of all of you."

"How is this possible!" Yu Youci looked at Baili Xuan with a troubled face and said, "Miss Baili didn't have any skills or foundation at all before! Even the swordsmen prepared by the villa are more likely to pass the exam than her, Teacher Bu, you

Are you deliberately making things difficult for us by asking us to cooperate with her?"

Bai Lixuan herself felt that Bu Shechuan's arrangement was inappropriate. After all, she had just started training. Although the high-intensity exercise in the past few days was rapidly increasing her physical strength, she had to go out to perform with Yu Youci and the other three.

The cooperation of Yunzhongjian in the mission will definitely hinder the performance.

"That's it." Bu Shechuan forcefully dismissed their protests, "What is a test without difficulty?"

After saying these words, Bu Shechuan drifted away, leaving three disciples with headaches and a newbie who felt guilty at the practice ground.

"Miss Baili... In order to pass smoothly, we may force you to try your best to explore your potential. I hope you don't blame us for being too strict." Yu Youci said helplessly to Baili Xuan.

"Just call me Hu Yan from now on." Bai Lixuan clenched her fist and said, "I will do my best! After all, this is my own choice!"

The three of them were all infected by her aura, and were about to applaud her, when they suddenly heard a long, crazy laugh echoing in the air, which was creepy.

A red shadow fell from the sky and landed in the middle of the training ground. He raised his wide sleeves and flew Yu Youci, Lu Chengshi and Yun Jingchen away.

"Join the Desolate Sect and become the Sword in the Cloud. Is this your choice? Miss Baili." The man in red leaned over and looked down at her, with an evil smile on his lips.

"You... who are you?" Bai Lixuan felt that the person coming was evil, and the strong sense of oppression on the other person made her almost unable to restrain the idea of ​​turning around and running away.

"Leader of the Dragon Blood Cult, Yue Zheng Long Hua is the one."

Before he finished speaking, a figure wrapped in five rays of green, red, yellow, white and black appeared beside him like a meteor, and five ancient swords with light golden circular patterns on their bodies screamed and pierced his body together.

"The five sect leaders came up and took action together. I feel very lucky for three lives!" Lezheng Longhua roared, and the dragon scale's true energy circulated retrograde in an instant.
