Starting from the Greyhound, seventy-two changes.

boom!
After the blow, there was still endless airflow raging in the sky, carrying the bloody smell of the armored rhinoceros that was killed by the stick, spreading in all directions.

"It's so fucking fierce!"

Mr. Gu wiped the rhino blood off his face without caring about his image, and immediately changed his expression, put on a smile, hung up his sword, and immediately bowed and said:

"Little brother, your stick is really fierce. I wonder who taught you this? My surname is Gu Chuanjia, and I am a martial arts candidate from Qinghe County under Qiulong Prefecture."

[The owner of the picture killed the armored rhinoceros and obtained a fourth-level evil spirit...]

Chen Ku was still observing the corpse of the armored rhinoceros.

He had deliberately put in a little more strength just now, just to test how hard the material described by Mr. Gu as being able to be used to make 'famous soldier-level inner armor' was.

I really didn't expect that after my full-strength attack, its head was only flattened but not blown up, and even its body was still intact, which shows how hard it is. What Mr. Gu said was true, it really has the strength of a famous soldier-level inner armor.

But just when Chen Ku was observing the corpse of the armored rhinoceros.

Suddenly.

His nose flared, and he thought to himself:
"Huh? Why does it seem like there's another armored rhino nearby? I smell the scent of two armored rhinos..."

But when I explored with my nose, it seemed to encounter some obstruction.

I couldn't help but feel suspicious.

"Little brother?"

At this time, seeing that Chen Ku did not respond, Mr. Gu patiently asked again: "May I ask who you are from and who is your master?"

Being forced to talk.

Chen Ku then slowly turned his head and looked at the scholar named Gu Chuanjia, and bowed slightly:

"Chen Ku is from Baojiao County and is a disciple of Master Yang Luchan of Yaowang Hall."

"Baojiao County, he is actually a local of Baojiao County." Gu Chuanjia was incredulous, how could he not know that this time the world of Qiulong martial arts was opened up, and it was presided over by the Grand Master of Qiulong Mansion. Young people from all sides of Qiulong Mansion were also rushing for the title of the Grand Master.

Therefore, anyone can guess that with so many talented people from all over Qiulong pouring into a small county like Baojiao County, it is estimated that the young people of Baojiao County who are of the right age will not be able to occupy any places as martial artists this time, let alone enter the world of martial arts.

Who would have thought...

Such a ferocious young man actually said that he was a local of Baojiao County?

What kind of Feng Shui is there in Baojiao County that could produce such a fierce little man?

"Yang Lu Chan?"

Gu Chuanjia whispered in his heart,
"I seem to have heard of this person."

After my mind has calmed down.

Looking at Chen Ku again, Gu Chuanjia already had an instinctive admiration in his eyes. Warriors admire the strong. Although his fame and achievements are higher than Chen Ku, judging from Chen Ku's stick skills and strength that easily killed a fourth-level iron-armored rhinoceros, it is only a matter of time before the other party is promoted to a scholar or a juren in the future.

I immediately wanted to make friends with him.

What's more, this is still the world of martial arts. If... he can get a helper, can't he join forces to challenge some demons and monsters that he didn't dare to face before?
"Brother Chen, you have such a strong cultivation ability at such a young age. I admire you very much." Gu Chuanjia smiled and said, "This should be your first time entering the martial arts world, right? It just so happens that I have entered the martial arts world many times. If you don't mind, I can tell you more about the things in this martial arts world."

Chen Ku was about to ask this, so he said, "I am also curious. Isn't this martial arts world a place for testing martial artists? How can you, who have already passed the exam, enter again? Also, as a senior candidate, wouldn't you be considered cheating or stealing questions if you interacted with me?"

"What do you mean by cheating or stealing questions? There is no such thing."

Mr. Gu waved his hand and said with a smile:

"You know, this martial arts world is used to train 'talented generals' for the court, simulating various special environments in the outside world. For example, if you want to lead your troops to attack a fortress, but you don't have enough troops, you can either train your own soldiers to be strong or use strategies to see through the enemy's weaknesses. But in addition to this, there are many other ways, such as 'winning over allies', 'borrowing troops', etc.

To put it bluntly, this martial arts world is just a small military sandbox. If some rules are designed so rigidly, then what is the difference between them and nerds who "read military books mechanically"? We "outsiders" who are not part of this martial arts test are equivalent to the "neutral countries" during the war between two countries.

If you have the ability, you can join forces with us to conquer cities, but you also need to be careful not to be used as a scapegoat by us or sold out."

Chen Ku felt a little surprised when he heard the other party's last sentence.

This person was meeting me for the first time, and he was willing to say all this to me, and even reminded me to be careful and wary of people like them?

But Gu Chuanjia smiled and continued:
“As for why old men like us who have passed the martial arts test can still enter the martial arts world, this is another meaning of the martial arts world. It is not only a test for martial artists, but also a long-term test that can last until you reach the tenth level of martial arts.

Not to mention me, a fourth-level warrior, even a seventh-rank scholar can come in. Sometimes, even masters, generals, and even princes can enter and test themselves in certain levels. Of course, those princes and generals definitely do not enter the martial arts world of Qiulong Mansion, but the broader martial arts world of the 'state, province, and road' level.

Simply put, as long as you can successfully pass this martial arts trial, you will be qualified to enter the martial arts world again in the future, but the prerequisite is to apply and have a certain amount of martial arts luck.

For example, this time, Gu spent a full 10,000 martial luck points to get the qualification to enter the martial arts world again to look for opportunities. "

"Martial luck?" Chen Ku asked curiously, "Isn't martial luck only available in the martial arts world? It sounds like there are ways to obtain martial luck in the outside world as well?"

"Of course. The existence of the Martial Temple is a place that controls and suppresses the martial luck of the world. In any Martial Temple in the Great Ji Dynasty, there are some special Martial Temple bounties and notices. After completing them, you can get a certain amount of martial luck." Gu Chuanjia said, "However, most of these bounty notice tasks have very harsh conditions and test your strength and intelligence, so under normal circumstances, they are not easy to complete."

Chen Ku nodded suddenly.

At this moment, I already have a vague yet clear outline of the vision of the Daji Dynasty.

Before this, he was just a peasant living in a remote corner of the dynasty. His horizons and experiences were all limited to the small piece of land in Baojiao County. The most powerful force in the city was the gang, and the most powerful official was the county magistrate...

Where can I get the chance to know the vast world outside, and even the nature of this dynasty, and how it actually works?
Now, after passing the military examination, I have finally jumped out of the well and truly touched upon some of the more essential contents of the Daji Dynasty.

This comes to mind.

Just like the children from rural villages in the previous life, who were admitted to universities, came to big cities to see the world, broadened their cognition, and gradually figured out the essence of how society works, the trends of their life development are similar.

"From what the martial arts candidate said, it seems that he wants to cooperate with Chen to overcome some obstacles?" Chen Ku asked calmly. If he could have an old man to guide him in this martial arts world, it would definitely save him a lot of trouble, but he still remained very cautious.

"To be honest with Brother Chen, in this world of martial arts, the most important things, like test questions, are the locations of checkpoints and some special rewards... Gu just happens to know a place that not many people know about. It's a small hidden checkpoint, but it's very difficult to get through? But once you get through it, the rewards are extremely generous..."

Gu Chuanjia tried to probe: "If Brother Chen is interested, I can tell you this place, and we can explore it together. After we pass it, we will split the reward equally. How about it..."

却，
Just after he finished saying this tentative word.

boom!
A clear and high-pitched "breaking sound" suddenly erupted between the heaven and earth of the entire martial arts world, and it spread to any place within a hundred thousand miles.

A natural phenomenon!

Chen Ku looked in a direction in astonishment. It was the northwest direction. A golden light shot up into the sky, as if some treasure had been born.

After the golden light shot up into the sky, it spread in all directions.

But just as Chen Ku's eyes lit up, he was curious: was that some kind of 'treasure coming to the world' light?
Gu Chuanjia beside him lost his voice and said:

"The first person to pass the martial arts test! This is a sign that someone has passed the first level of the arena. As the first person to pass the test, a sign will appear in the martial arts world to announce it. That golden light is the reward bestowed upon him!"

Almost at the same time when Gu Chuanjia finished speaking.

A loud and clear sound rang out from the golden martial arts tokens on Chen Ku and Gu Chuanjia's bodies. It sounded like the sound of a golden gong when the results of the imperial examination were announced, congratulating them:

"Candidate Pei Qingzhi has passed the Baihua Valley Arena and defeated the 'Golden Armored Centipede'. He was awarded a pair of soldier-level 'Golden Armored Wristguards'.

Because he was the first candidate to pass the arena level, the Martial Temple awarded him an extra set of top-grade famous soldier-level armor called "Gold Embroidered Hundred Battle Armor".

This is hereby announced to heaven and earth, and all envoys shall hear it. "

at the same time.

In a valley in the northwest of the martial arts world, hundreds of flowers are in full bloom, including peonies, herbaceous peonies, roses, crape myrtles, rape flowers, etc., vying for beauty, and bees are flying in swarms.

But at this moment, most of this beautiful flower valley seemed to have been trampled by thousands of troops and horses, or hit by artillery shells. There were many huge pits and the soil had been turned over several times.

In a large pit, there was a giant insect lying quietly, which was fifteen meters long. It had two pairs of golden claws and feet as sharp as swords. But at this moment, its shell was turned inside out, and green flesh and blood were scattered all over the place.

Next to this golden-armored centipede stood the most powerful man of the younger generation of Qiulong Mansion, holding two sledgehammers in his hands and bathed in golden light.

In the light, a pair of golden wrist guards and a set of knitted embroidered armor slowly floated down...

After Pei Qingzhi put on the wrist guards and armor in the golden light, he looked like a young general walking down the battlefield. His image of a pointed mouth and shrunken cheeks was saved a lot, and he looked heroic.

[Candidate Pei Qingzhi, you have passed one of the arenas and successfully obtained the title of 'Wusheng'. You can choose to continue to stay in the Wudao World Trial, or leave now? ]

Listening to the majestic voice like that of an old man in the world of martial arts.

Pei Qingzhi grinned and laughed wildly:
"Let's go? Such an interesting place? I haven't had enough fun yet, I want to continue the trial!"

The two white tiger silver hammers in his hands were only at the level of famous weapons. He had always regarded them as treasures and placed them beside his bed every night before going to bed.

As a result, this time when he entered the world of martial arts, he only needed to clear one arena, but he got two rewards of famous weapon level.

The gold-embroidered Hundred Battle Armor is a top-grade famous weapon!

You know, armor and other equipment are inherently more valuable than weapons. They are equivalent to a warrior's second life. The better the armor, the stronger its life-saving ability.

The value of this "Gold Embroidered Hundred Battle Armor" is at least enough to exchange for ten White Tiger Silver Hammers that he once regarded as treasures.

How could Pei Qingzhi, who had tasted the sweetness, be willing to leave?

The most important thing is that the golden-armored centipede just now was not very difficult to beat. For him, who has the power of dragon, he is invulnerable to swords and guns. The thing he fears most is a heavy blow from a blunt object. He struck the centipede with eighteen hammers and directly shattered the centipede's internal organs.

In other words, the centipede is more poisonous.

Pei Qingzhi's face was now purple, with white foam at the corners of his mouth. But it didn't matter. Killing the centipede just now gave him two thousand martial luck...

Just go to the stone tablet in Baihua Valley and buy some detoxification pills.

……

Outside, in the Temple of Martial Arts.

Almost at the same time, the name of the first person to pass the test appeared on the huge "Golden List" of the Martial Temple behind Qin Yuxian, Tan Chongrui, Shangguan Yun and others.

Gold list title.

The first person to pass the test and become a martial arts student is Pei Qingzhi.

"This Silver Hammer Huang Xu'er is worthy of being the strongest young man in Qiulong Mansion. He actually passed the first round so quickly..."

A strange look flashed in Qin Yuxian's eyes:
"I wonder if my junior brother has found the arena yet?"

…………

at the same time.

Wumiao Tiandi, Qiulong Mountain, in a huge temple.

Almost at the same time when Pei Qingyi killed the golden-armored centipede with eighteen hammer strikes, a series of laughter rang out in the Martial Temple:
"Hahaha, Lao Zhu, you lost again!"

"We've said this countless times, your golden-armored centipede is not very durable. It's almost always the first to be defeated. It has supernatural powers. It can get through even with dozens of detoxification pills. But you've been doing it for five or six years without repeating yourself. You always put a golden-armored centipede there... I'm even suspecting that you're leaking the questions to the outside world on purpose!!"

An old man with white beard and white hair, called Lao Zhu, was so angry that his face turned blue. He said, "I am in charge of Baihua Valley. I can release whatever I want. Do you believe me, I will release another one?" (End of this chapter)
