Let’s Try It Then

“Hehe, Nan Shan, you don’t have to be nervous. With your aptitude, you will definitely become a great person in the future. Your monthly salary will be appropriate. You just have to focus on your cultivation and don’t have to worry about trivial matters.”

The First Elder was very smart. He could see at a glance that Nan Shan was uneasy, and he comforted him with a smile.

The test was still going on, but with Nan Shan’s outstanding performance, the people’s hearts were somewhat wavering.

“Alright, don’t mind it. You can tell me how much monthly salary you want.”

After the First Elder used his eyes to examine the scene, his gaze towards Nan Shan became extremely kind.

“Hmm, nine, how about nine times the monthly salary?”

Nan Shan hesitantly raised a finger.

The disciple with double spiritual roots received double the monthly salary, but he had five spiritual roots, so it shouldnot be too much to ask for nine times, right?

After many years of being an investor, Nan Dhan knew how to ask for a sky-high price and pay back the money on the ground.

In any case, he was willing to accept five times the original price, so he could haggle over it. “Alright!”

The First Elder slapped his thigh and agreed. “Ah? Then I’ll thank you first, First Elder.”

Nan Shan was stunned and quickly cupped his fists.

In fact, seeing how the First Elder agreed so readily, he felt that he should have asked for

more.

If he had known that the five-element spirit meridians were so valued, he would have asked for ten or twenty times the price!

The other disciples who heard the conversation were also stunned. The first thing he said was nine times his monthly salary. Anyone who saw it would be envious.

“Nine times it is then. From now on, you just need to cultivate properly. You can ask me all the information you need. Don’t hold back.” The First Elder laughed so hard that his face was full of wrinkles. He raised his hand and patted Nan Shan’s shoulder.

“Ten times the nine luminaries heaven?”

This time, it was Nan Shan’s turn to be shocked, but it was only for a moment, and his experience came into effect. Even though his heart was beating wildly, he still put on a calm expression.

Very quickly, the test for in-name disciples ended. About one-fifth of the people had stopped at the test to enter the Outer Sect.

The second round of the test was about to

begin. This time, it was actual combat!

Those who passed the assessment would be

promoted to the Inner Sect!

Nan Shan watched as the elders went to set up

the challenge checkpoints and immediately

stood up.

At this time, his sleeve was pulled lightly.

“This is your first time taking part in the assessment, right? Next is the Inner Sect challenge, which is divided into three levels: normal, difficult, and hell.

“The difficulty of each of these three levels is very different. Actually, with your talent, you can directly enter the Inner Sect after passing the normal level.”

Jiang Congshang explained to Nan Shan in a low voice, but in the eyes of the other disciples, it was as if the cold and aloof Senior Sister Jiang was whispering to Junior Brother Nan.

“Is that so, Senior Sister?”

Nan Shan hesitated for a moment and made a decision in his heart.

“I’ll start with the difficult level.”

Not long after, several elders had set up an array. Countless intertwining thorny vines suddenly appeared on the open space in front of them. Each vine was thick and strong, and the thorns on them were horizontal, even faintly glowing with a metallic luster.

In addition to Nan Shan, there were more than ten people who had difficulty signing up for the challenge, including the rare double spiritual roots.

Nan Shan was not in a hurry, so he let the

elders arrange for him to be the third to go on

stage.

The challenge began. If you can cut off any

thorn vine within half an hour, you will be considered to have beat the challenge. The elder who was in charge of maintaining the assessment gave the order, and someone impatiently jumped onto the stage.

The man’s muscles and bones were strong, and

he was more than two meters tall. In the blink

of an eye, his body was covered in a layer of faint golden light.

“Earth-type spiritual roots. The cultivation

method is still the firm and fierce path. Not bad, but not enough.”

The First Elder commented leisurely. As soon as he finished speaking, the challenger

had already reached out and grabbed a thorn

vine!

The next second.

“Clang!”

The muffled sound of the collision was

deafening. The earth element challenger was sent flying more than ten meters away at a

faster speed than he was on the stage. From his arms to his chest, he was covered in bloody

wounds!

Bramble vines were known for their durability,

and the sharp thorns all over its body were defensive weapons. Coupled with the fact that the earth element was a counter to each other, the only reason the earth element challenger could keep his life was because the elder next

to him restrained the flying thorns at the right time.

“Challenge failed. Next.” The elder shouted expressionlessly.

“Swish!”

A gust of wind was heard as a bright flame

streaked across the air. It swept towards the thorny vines with high temperature! “High-grade bronze weapon, red flame saber!”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, isn’t that the kid from the Sun family? No wonder you can get a weapon that can counter the thorn vines.” As the disciples discussed among themselves, the challenger finally stepped onto the stage.

The half-meter long thick saber in his hand danced with vigor.

The bramble vines suddenly expanded, and one

by one, they suddenly danced upward!

“Clang!”

Sun Miao blocked horizontally with his saber,

and the flames instantly swept up, burning the waving vines!

As their attributes countered each other, the

bramble vine trembled in pain, and the burning vines instantly wilted.

However, before Sun Miao could be proud,

another vine had quietly circled behind him.

“Waa!”

The spectating disciples couldnot help but exclaim.

Before the sound could even settle, Sun Miao

had been ambushed by the vines. The vines whipped him in an upside-down “U” shape at his waist and sent him flying! was so quiet that one could

The entire place

hear a pin drop.

Two in-name disciples who were not weak had been eliminated in a second!

“I’ll try.”

Nan Shan, who had been carefully observing

the weakness of the thorn vine, was relieved.

He got up and walked into the ring step by

step.

At the same time, he stretched his hand back and clenched the hilt of his sword. Devouring Fiend, out!

The ancient and gorgeous long sword in Nan

Shan’s hand had a unique style.

“I can’t tell the level of his sword from its

appearance!”

“To be chosen as a weapon by the five elemental spiritual veins, I’m afraid there must be something different about it. It’s only

natural that ordinary people like us can’t see

it.”

“But the thorn vine is called the” difficult “level challenge because this plant is born by

absorbing the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth.

It is extremely tough and can not be cut easily.

Even the spiritual veins of the five elements can not change this fact.” Countless honorary disciples were discussing. Not only them, but even the elders who were

watching the challenge sat up straight and carefully watched every move of Nan Shan. “What a strange sword. I really can’t tell its level, but the sword momentum that can’t be ignored is soul-stealing.”

No matter what the others thought, Nan Shan only had one thought in his mind. Senior Sister Jiang was watching behind him.

The Devouring sword that he had obtained with great difficulty must not be messed up! The thorny vines in front of him seemed to

have sensed some kind of threat. Their thick branches gathered together, and their sharp thorns shone with a cold light.

Before Nan Shan could do anything, a thorn vine that was thicker than him whipped at his

waist. Even the sharp thorns shot out in an instant, completely sealing off the entire area! One must know that the thorns of the bramble

vines were poisonous, and the one in front of him was a treasure that the sect had cultivated for countless years!

It was even more poisonous!
