Chapter 1206 Born to be shameless
...
"Th." The beam of the stone pillar shook for a while, then stabilized, making a hoarse thump.
The person in charge of the exam looked at Lin Xiaodong and frowned. "750 kilograms...but you still have two opportunities.
Considering that people less than 900 kilograms dare not register, the result is really bad. No one is willing to hang out in such a huge crowd that ultimately embarrass himself. But from Lin Xiaodong's perspective, the result is very good, and he has the natural shameless ability to ignore other people's ideas. He twisted his waist, stretched his neck again, and then slammed again. "Peng!"
“700 jin.”
Another punch!
“750 jin.”
There is no doubt that Lin Xiaodong suffered a crushing defeat.
For Lin Xiaodong, this was a good result. He was only 15 years old, and his father decided that he would only be able to enter the seven martial arts houses when he was 18 years old. Lin Xiaodong had no plans to break through the "pulse condensation" period from the beginning. His only ideal and aspiration was to maintain his position in the family.
"I gave you Jinshiba, didn't you eat it?" Ou Chuyang asked after he left.
"I have eaten it all; otherwise I will not be able to get 600 kilograms." Lin Xiaodong shrugged innocently. He left Ou Chuyang at a loss.
But Ou Chuyang also thought this was normal. After all, before he practiced "virtue and meridian battle", his best result was 850 kilograms. His diligent and tireless training far exceeded that of Lin Xiaodong, who only managed 600 kilograms at the time.
For someone who only has a third grade and does not have a strong aristocratic background, it is difficult to enter the 15-year-old Seven Martial Arts House. Even the first round of the entrance exam is difficult to pass.
The strength test finally ends around noon, and candidates can take a short break before the entrance exam continues.
Because the rest time was too short, Ou Chuyang simply ate a meal, then sat down to ponder, and then hurried back to the square.
The second inspection is "Dream Trial". This is a test of the martial artist's inner heart.
For a martial artist, they not only need the support of talent and background, but also must have a serious and relentless martial arts heart. The heart of martial arts is by no means anyone who is loyal or virtuous, or even kind. Whether it is a living Buddha full of justice or a leader of a demon sect for dark purposes, the fact is that the mindset of martial arts is neither good nor evil. It only determines whether a person is determined to walk this rough path.
Practicing martial arts is a daily struggle. A person's life will be full of suffering, danger and temptation. If a person's mentality is not firm, it is easy to fall off the road of a martial artist and give up, thus wasting all previous efforts.
Some people practice martial arts only for wealth and sensory pleasure. In the hearts of these people, they did not really understand the meaning of martial arts when they practiced. This would not affect them in the early stages of planting, but would later become an insurmountable obstacle. The pulse condensation period was enough to allow people to live a luxurious and luxurious lifestyle, making people addicted to money and beautiful women. There were many such warriors in the Sky Wealth Kingdom. Because the Heavenly Kingdom would reward those who entered the pulse condensation period, some people suffered countless hardships to achieve this goal, only because they could not resist the temptation of luxury and stopped the path to martial arts.
The dream judgment does not test a person's cultivation; it feels his determination and the heart of martial arts. Ou Chuyang is completely confident in this. Even if he does not obtain the mysterious Rubik's Cube, he still believes that he still has 120% chance to pass.
At this time, more than half of the candidates failed the first trial, so after leaving the venue, the square became much spacious.
The poor and pathetic Lin Xiaodong has lost the qualification to enter, so he can only stay on the main road outside the square.
Ou Chuyang turned to look at Lin Xiaodong. Although there were many people in the crowd, he still saw him.
Lin Xiaodong also saw Ou Chuyang, and he gave a thumbs up. Ou Chuyang smiled. When he turned his head, he saw a character in the crowd attracting his sight. The girl was wearing a fitted daffodil yellow dress. She looked like a nobleman, and the junior student wore a top hat made of swan feathers. She stood in an obscure corner and observed everything.
Ou Chuyang recognized this girl. She was Lan Yunyue.
Ou Chuyang quickly turned his gaze. He knew that if they met each other, it would only increase Lan Yunyue's embarrassment. It would be better not to look at it at all...
Lin Ming did not blame Lan Yunyue in his heart. After all, there was only a silent agreement between them, and they did not discuss marriage or similar topics extensively. Lan Yunyue made the only choice that an ordinary girl might make based on her situation.
Lan Yunyue didn't know that Ou Chuyang had discovered her. Lan Yunyue had struggled for a long time about whether she was coming here today. She didn't want to see Ou Chuyang, but she was a little worried. She wanted to know if he was healthy.
She only remembers two months ago when Ou Chuyang tried to sell several bad-quality symbolic documents. The scene in front of the store made her feel a pity.
He doesn't even have a particularly terrible talent to support his martial arts without relying on a wealthy family background. He has very little savings to rent a house, buy a meal and some medicine. In these miserable situations, he may only be able to afford the iron wire grass, or even cannot. If so, then his body will suffer several internal injuries.
These thoughts caused trouble for Lan Yunyue. She loved his strength and perseverance. She remembered when she was a child. He protected her from a large number of bullies. He stood in front of her like a brave knight, with his arms spread out and being beaten. He made her feel protected and safe.
But unfortunately, this feeling cannot replace something in the end...
She is a charming girl with the temperament of an outstanding woman. She is born with good talents, and although she is not from a noble family, her family is rich. Such a girl will inevitably have a sense of superiority, like a noble peacock, confined to a game fence with chickens. She cannot convince herself to live a normal life. She eventually married Ou Chuyang and became the life of a mistress in a family restaurant. They fell in love with each other and had a child at the age of 20, and then he gradually aged and died, she would be there alone and even her expression disappeared.
She doesn't want to live such a life. She doesn't!
For this reason, she chose Zhu Yan. Not only because of the relationship between the Zhu family and the royal family, but he could also help her enter the seven major martial arts museums. He would provide Lan Yunyue with rare and precious medicines and help her enter the pulse coagulation period. Under the temptation of the pulse coagulation period, Lan Yunyue could not bear her desires.
This morning, Lan Yunyue was restless. She didn't want to come, but she finally failed to convince herself. So she arrived this afternoon. She came because she thought Ou Chuyang would pass the strength test. As long as Ou Chuyang failed, he could give up his dream and go home to live a safe life. In this way, she could relax and let go of all her worries. She didn't actually think she would meet Ou Chuyang in the qualifying match. This surprised and worried her at the same time.
Because Ou Chuyang unexpectedly entered the second stage of physical transformation at the age of 15 without a family background, he was surprised.
The worry was because she couldn't think of whether Ou Chuyang could reach this stage safely. She only imagined that he had several internal injuries on his body, and by the time he was thirty, he was simply a son.
....
In the morning, the beautiful lady supervisor of the Power Test appeared again. She stared at the group and found that there were still many people and thought the result was not too shabby. "Everyone followed me. We're heading to the Sea Jade platform now."
As the beautiful female supervisor walked through the powerful and intimidating gates of the seven martial arts homes, a crowd of about a hundred boys and girls followed her.
The Seven Pro Hall is housed on a hillside. There are no tall buildings or large buildings inside, but endless land and streams dotted with gorgeous pavilions. The pavilions are carefully crafted with smooth and delicate lines and a perfect blend of surrounding scenery. It is amazed by the seamless craftsmanship and natural beauty used by the design.
The crowd left for about a cup of tea until they came to a dark green lake. Its color was as bright as living jade. The surface was without traces of waves and was very quiet. The weeping willow trees concealed the entire lake, and even when the leaves fell in autumn, the leaves of the trees fell. It surprised everyone that there was not even a single leaf floating on the calm lake.
In the center of Jade Lake, a jade platform is carved with light white jade. The jade platform is connected to the shore by nine stone bridges. It is like a mysterious fairy tale world that is lifelike.
Ou Chuyang discovered that a few dozen meters away from Yutai was a pavilion floating in the water. A stone table was placed in the pavilion with tea and dried fruits. Around the table were a few old men and a single girl, looking at them with interest.
Unexpectedly, Qin Xingxuan and Mr. Mu Yi.
Ou Chuyang was a little hesitant. Why did they appear here?
Muyi also found Ou Chuyang looking at him and smiled slightly. Qin Xingxuan also had a friendly smile.
Ou Chuyang returned his smile out of courtesy. He was somewhat suspicious that it was not easy for the others who accompanied Muyi. Several of them, from their breathing and appearance, were no less powerful than Muyi.
These people are masters!
Ou Chuyang read that right. These people are friends of Muyi and several officials of the Sky Fortune Kingdom government. There are also elders from the seven major martial arts homes. The exams are twice a year. They will observe them in the future to see if there are good candidates among the candidates.
They are mainly looking for those talented and innocent martial artists. Every year, candidates must register their talents and other information to take the entrance exam. Therefore, elders do not need to measure because they have already browsed the archives.
The candidate this time is unsatisfactory. The strongest one is the senior level 4 talent.
It is not normal to have a fifth-grade talent once a decade. High-level fourth-level talents are also very good, and low-level fourth-level talents can make up for it. Third-level talents are slightly inferior.
The first round of the exam was not important, so the elders of the martial arts museum did not show up. They had seen their talents, and this time they came to observe which candidate had the heart of a particularly powerful martial artist.
"Come up. Defend your mind, sit and meditate, and once you pass five tests, you will pass," said the beautiful lady supervisor.
The candidates stepped on nine stone bridges at once. Their hearts began to pound in their chests. In the first round, their hearts were filled with confidence. They knew the limits of their power. Only some of them thought they might feel nervous and could not realize their full potential, but they knew in their hearts that they did not have to be too anxious to pass. But this time it was a "dream trial" and they were nervous.
Many candidates have never tried the "Dream Trial" before, so they don't know what kind of scenarios they will encounter in the end. But they hear that this is the trial with the highest elimination rate. It will be as high as 90%!
In a group of ten people, only one person will pass!
People must know that they are the most outstanding talents among their peers. In a small town, a small family, and even the entire city, they are the most brilliant and majestic of this generation. They have been respected by people since childhood and labeled as geniuses, but even in such a crowd, most people will be eliminated in the "Judgement of Dreams"!
This trial is terrifying!
"Sit on the jade platform. After ten breaths, the trial will begin!" said the beautiful lady boss. Even though she was far apart, each candidate's ears clearly heard her voice. This method of delivering messages through the true nature is deeper and more powerful than Zhu Yan.
Lin Min suspects that the beautiful lady is a martial artist during the pulse condensation period.
When Ling Ming stepped onto the jade platform, he glanced at the crowd in the distance and found Lan Yunyue among them. She was leaning on a willow tree, still staring at Ou Chuyang, not thinking that he had seen him.
Ou Chuyang sighed and stopped looking. He sat cross-legged on the jade platform. After sitting down, Ou Chuyang found that although the jade platform was built of white marble, there was no chill in the air. Instead, it was an unparalleled peace and warmth. Looking closely, he could see that there were many different lines and symbols engraved on the jade platform. These were runes.
This large jade platform is a magical array. It is said that these magic arrays were created by Master Xiantian in seven deep valleys. Among them, people cannot even distinguish between reality and fantasy.
But Ou Chuyang was not worried. Dreams were still just dreams. As long as he firmly firm his thoughts, even if the dreams were boundless, he would be unwavering!
When Ou Chuyang sat on the jade platform, his mind was filled with bright light.
At the end of the tenth breath, Ou Chuyang saw a dazzling flash around him, and all the candidates disappeared from his vision, leaving him alone.
The endless grassland appeared in front of him and extended to his sight. At this time, a group of ferocious beasts, each one higher than a man, flew out of the tall grass and headed straight for Ou Chuyang.
Dozens of wild beasts were like the first-level evil beasts that Ou Chuyang had boned before! When they ran together, the grass and the ground began to vibrate. A powerful force rushed towards him.
Lin Ming didn't even blink until the first beast rushed towards him.
"blessing!"
The ferocious beast pierced his body directly. Ou Chuyang stood there and still had no sound. But when the beast pierced him, Ou Chuyang felt very strong shock and pressure. Although he knew it was just a dream, he could not get rid of this feeling, as if it was a kind of fear originating from his soul.
