There are no years in the mountains.

In the blink of an eye, another five months have passed.

Dang, Dang, Dang...

The melodious bells echoed up and down the mountain gate. Chen Xun walked out of the yard and looked around to see the mountains and forests in the distance covered in silver and snow-capped mountains, which was so beautiful.

From this angle, we can also see that the mountain path is full of people, and a large number of disciples are pouring out from all over the place, heading towards the summit square.

There were also many young people with unfamiliar faces vaguely visible among them, all of whom looked nervous, excited, and full of hope.

Those were the newly recruited outer disciples who were newly recruited by the sect when it opened its gates once every three years a few days ago.

Chen Xun went to see the excitement that day. There were hundreds of people who worshiped the mountain gate. They all came from ordinary towns thousands of miles away. They were rich people, beggars and homeless people, all of whom had different identities. Finally, after passing through the mountain gate, they felt their bones and found out their character.

After passing the three-level examination of perseverance, only a few hundred people remained.

Among these more than 100 people, more than half will start as handyman disciples, while a small number of those with average and high test scores can start directly as outer sect disciples. Among them, there are three top-grade disciples who have been included in the key list.

Inspection object.

"Axun, Axun!"

While looking in the distance, a familiar call floated over. Chen Xun turned around and saw Song Dahu running towards him on the trail not far away:

"The big exam is about to start, let's get up there quickly!"

Chen Xun walked over and walked up the stone steps with him, exhaling a cold breath:

"How about Dahu, are you sure today?"

Song Dahu chuckled: "Although I can't compare with you, it shouldn't be a big problem to pass the exam."

Chen Xun felt relieved and said with a smile:

"I knew it would be difficult for you in the big exam."

It is a common practice in Yaowang Mountain that after the main gate is opened, there will be a three-year sect examination, which is mainly conducted for handymen, and even for disciples of the outer sect and inner sect who have reached a certain number of years.

The school examination is divided into a literary test and a martial arts test. The literary test relies on medical skills and pharmacology, and the martial arts test naturally depends on martial arts cultivation. As long as the disciples who pass the test can be promoted to the next level of disciples, they can even win the favor of the elders;

And if they fail the exam twice in a row, the outer sect and handyman disciples will be sent back, while the inner sect disciples will be sent out to serve the sect's overseas properties.

The reason Song Dahu took part in the exam was because of Elder Wu Zhenghua's request. As a registered disciple, if he could pass this time, he could be directly accepted as the elder's direct disciple.

Although he had benefited from Chen Xun's favor, Song Dahu himself was very ambitious. After nearly a year of hard training, he had successfully passed the martial arts level, otherwise he would not have had the chance to take the big exam.

As the most special person in the sect, Chen Xun did not need to participate in the exam. In the past, he only cheered for Song Dahu and watched the excitement.

Soon, the two arrived at the summit square. Most of the disciples were already waiting, and several arenas were set up in the open space for the disciples to compete.

Disciples taking the exam had to wait in a fixed area. Song Dahu went to another waiting area, while Chen Xun came to the seats set up for the sect masters, elders and other senior sect officials, and found Xiao Yuhan who was also present.

"Fifth Junior Brother."

As soon as Chen Xun came over, Xiao Yuhan couldn't help but look up and down:

"I seem to have rarely seen you in the past two months. How is your cultivation going?"

"Just so-so."

Chen Xun chuckled:

"It's been a long time since I listened to senior sister's teachings. Junior brother, I miss you very much."

Xiao Yuhan snorted: "Junior brother, don't give me the ecstasy soup. I think your skin is itchy?"

Chen Xun quickly flashed and said with a smile: "Sister, what I said is true. I thought of you during my hard training, and I was inspired to compose a poem. Do you want to hear it?"

"poetry?"

Xiao Yu's cold and beautiful face was full of doubts: "You can also write poetry?"

"Of course it's true!"

Chen Xun made a deep expression and opened his mouth:

"The clouds are like clothes, the flowers are like faces, the spring breeze is blowing on the threshold, and the dew is thick. If we hadn't met on the top of the jade mountains, we would have met under the moon on Yaotai..."

This poem...?

The Shixian's masterpieces are naturally not overshadowed by the beauty of the artistic conception. Xiao Yuhan's eyes were stunned when he heard it, and then a blush appeared on his snowy face.

I'm sorry, Senior Sister Bai.

Don't blame me, junior brother, it's true that I only know this poem to praise a woman's appearance...

Seeing Xiao Yuhan's reaction, Chen Xun glanced at the direction where the side peak female disciples were gathering with a guilty conscience, and then whispered:

"Senior sister, how does my poem go?"

Xiao Yuhan pretended to be calm as his peaceful mood was in turmoil:

"This poem is really about you..."

"Third Junior Sister, Fifth Junior Brother?"

Before he finished speaking, a familiar voice came, and he saw Second Senior Brother Hua Longfei and Zhou Lianyue walking through the crowd.

An unsightly light bulb came, and Chen Xun didn't know what to say, so he greeted him in a superficial way:

"Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother, you are here."

Seeing that the two of them were standing very close to each other and Xiao Yuhan was blushing, the atmosphere was very strange. Hua Longfei's eyes flashed with a sharp look, but he said without revealing anything on the surface:

"How long have you been here?"

"Just came here a while ago."

Facing the dog-licking owner, Chen Xun showed no guilty conscience:

"I think the master and the elders will be here soon."

clang--

What a coincidence, just as I finished speaking, the heavy bells echoed again, thousands of disciples around the square stood in silence, and then they saw the sect leader Hong Quancheng, the elder Yan Taiming, Yu Xianting, Qin Ying, Wu Zhenghua and others in the meeting hall.

Senior brother Hong Xizhen and others filed out.

Under the respectful gazes of thousands of people, a group of senior officials came to the stage. Hong Quancheng looked around and sounded like a bell:

"It has been two hundred years since the Yaowang Mountain sect was founded, and we have overcome many difficulties and come to this point. This is all due to the hard work of thousands of disciples and their continuous self-improvement. In this sect examination, I hope that all the disciples will fully display their talents and knowledge, seize the day and live up to their time!"

clang......

The bell rang, thousands of disciples below responded loudly, and Hong Quancheng returned to his seat.

Yu Xianting came to the stage and said in a long voice:

"In this big exam, there are one hundred and seventy-five handyman disciples, seventy-three outer disciples, and twenty-two inner disciples. The handyman disciples will start the exam first!"

The sound echoed, and the bells rang again, and several sect deacons were seen walking out of the crowd. They came to the four arenas of A, B, C and D with rosters in hand. They began to read out the names of the disciples and began to draw lots.

The grand examination for the handyman disciples is a competition and elimination system. After drawing lots, all the handyman disciples were anxious and went to the four arenas in pairs to start fighting. There were no restrictions on swords, fists and kicks.

Of course, as long as the point is reached, if someone maliciously causes serious injury or death, they will be expelled from the sect directly.

The handyman disciples are basically at the level of strength training. Most of them are practicing the first and second levels of strength. The competition is not of much interest. Except for the new disciples who watch it with gusto, the old disciples are not very interested and have little response.

warm.

However, in the stands, the sect master and the four elders were watching carefully, as if they were looking for any missing pearls among the servant disciples.
