Looking at the four words on the stone tablet that were flashing with light, Luo Xiu smiled lightly. Unlike the youths who were wild with joy after they passed the previous exam, he only lightly nodded at the disciple taking the test, and then silently withdrew.

But even so, many gazes still converged on Luo Xiu, watching him leave the stone stage, and then walked over to Chu Hongling's side.

"Thank you, Senior Chu." Luo Xiu smiled in return.

As he said this, Chu Hongling's eyes revealed a faint sense of worry.

"Yes!"

Luo Xiu thoughtfully nodded his head, "If he is allowed to take first place in the examination, he will also be superior to others when he enters the inner sect."

Chu Hongling nodded and did not say a word.

The exam's first place was not as simple as it appeared to be. On the surface, just by passing the exam first place would allow one to obtain additional resources and focus on nurturing their disciples. But the deep meaning behind this nurture was the real reason behind the anger of these outstanding disciples.

"Don't worry Junior Brother Luo, Zhang Chong will not easily win the following first place competition!" Chu Hongling said with relief.

Luo Xiu heard and paused. He could tell that Chu Hongling was not confident, after thinking for a while, she opened her mouth and said: "Then, I ask Senior Chu to be careful."

"Cough …"

On the stone stage, Wang Ping pretended to cough, and immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the stage.

"The initial assessment is already in progress. "Next, the final exam, which will be the selection of the first person." Wang Ping's gaze swept across the people below the stage. "After we have discussed among the three people in charge of the assessment, the first person will be decided by Zhang Chong and Chu Hongling.

Hearing that, the eyes of the people in the training grounds immediately split into two groups, respectively looking at Zhang Chong and Chu Hongling who had gotten an outstanding result in the past.

Facing the fiery gazes that came from all directions, Chu Hongling heaved a sigh of relief, then nodded her head towards Luo Xiu, walking towards the competition grounds that was just cleared out for this battle. The crimson fiery red dress accentuated the heroic look of the young lady, causing many of the youths to reflect from their eyes.

And Zhang Chong, who carried a loathsome smile, was already waiting for her to arrive in the competition grounds.

"Junior Sister Hongling, I advise you to surrender as soon as possible, you are not my match yet."

Looking at Chu Hongling, Zhang Chong spoke with a disapproving tone, unrestrainedly provoking him.

"We haven't fought yet, and the victor is still unknown."

Chu Hongling curled her lips, but her eyes revealed a solemn expression. She also knew that this battle was not going to be a optimistic one.

"Then let's see what happens under my fists."

Zhang Chong shrugged his shoulders, his attitude the same as before, as if he did not even place the other party in his eyes.

"Let the duel begin!"

Seeing that the two of them were ready, Wang Ping gave the order.

hiss hiss

Just as the start command was given, the two people in the competition arena immediately activated their Yuan Power. A faint light started to seep out from their bodies, just their Yuan Power luster alone was not something that an early stage Martial Disciple could compare with.

"As expected of Intermediate Martial Disciple."

Looking at the two outstanding disciples in the competition field, waves of admiring exclamations broke out from the martial arts practice field.

After studying martial arts for two years, their talent to be able to advance into the Martial Disciple was already not bad, and these two were actually able to advance into the middle stage after entering the Martial Disciple. It can be said without any exaggeration that the potential of these two was not ordinary, if properly groomed by the sect, they would definitely become great figures in the future!

"Ha!"

With a shout, Chu Hongling reached out her hand from within her red sleeves, bringing out a gust of biting cold wind as she struck towards Zhang Chong.

"Humph!"

Seeing that the other party was attacking, Zhang Chong's expression did not change.

Boom! *

As the fist and palm collided, Yuan Power immediately erupted, causing the two of them to fly away. However, just as their feet landed on the ground, the two of them charged forward once again. Fist and wind palm images intertwined and their figures flashed.

For a moment, the two fought to the point where they couldn't even separate. Everyone watched intently and didn't dare to breathe, afraid that they would miss a brilliant moment.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

As the Yuan Power collided with each other, it caused a strong wind to blow in the surroundings. Within a short period of time, the two of them had already exchanged more than ten moves.

"Senior Chu!"

Noticing the abnormality of Chu Hongling's body, Luo Xiu frowned: "Senior Chu's speed has slowed down. It seems like the vitality in her body has already started to run out. Looks like it was a bit difficult for Senior Chu to enter Intermediate Martial Disciple, I am afraid she is not Zhang Chong's match. "

"I can only take a gamble!"

Chu Hongling's breathing had already become a little ragged, and her eyebrows knitted together. She knew that her long battle was not going to end well, so she immediately jumped backwards, opening up a distance of more than ten steps between her and Zhang Chong.

"What, Junior Sister Hongling, are you planning to admit defeat?" Zhang Chong also immediately stopped his attack and said without sparing anyone.

"On the contrary, I want to determine the outcome of this next attack!"

Chu Hongling's gaze congealed, and the vitality in her body surged to the extreme, an intense light emitted from the slender fingers of her right hand, instantly enveloping her entire palm.

fire lotus palm!

Chu Hongling gently stepped forward, her figure instantly transforming into a red shadow that rushed forward. Her palm struck out, and instantly, a red lotus flower that was as bright as fire bloomed in her hand!

"Inferior Martial Technique!?"

Seeing Chu Hongling taking action, everyone was shocked!

According to the rules set by the Burning Sun Sect, when outer sect disciples enter the Martial Arts Library, they must complete a portion of the sect's mission. In other words, ordinary outer sect disciples have no chance to come into contact with and learn the Inferior Martial Technique, but that Chu Hongling actually used it?

However, what was even more shocking was that —

"So you actually have this kind of backup. No wonder you dare to challenge me. However, if you think that you can defeat me with this, then you are completely wrong!"

Facing Chu Hongling's unexpected powerful attack, Zhang Chong did not panic. With a cold laugh, she waved her fist and another wave of strong light was suddenly released.

"It's actually the Inferior Martial Technique again?!"

Seeing Zhang Chong use it, the spectators were all shocked, not only did Chu Hongling know how to use a martial skill, even Zhang Chong had used a martial skill!

However, before the audience could react, the situation on stage suddenly reversed —

Void Splitting Fist!

Zhang Chong threw a fist out, bringing about an extremely ferocious force, which actually tore the air in front of him apart, and following that, this violent power smashed into the fire lotus in front of him along with his fist.

Bang!

After the two techniques clashed, the red lotus in Chu Hongling's palm seemed to have been cut by a wind blade, as it instantly tore and dissipated. In the next moment, a violent storm surged forth, and that fiery red figure shot out, landing right outside the stage.
