Shen Yourong glanced at the dozen or so Martial Seal in front of her, her gaze hesitant, unsure which one to choose.
Although the artifact spirit had already filtered the pool once, the range was still astonishingly large.
After all, there are countless sword techniques, as vast as the ocean, offering multiple paths to cultivation.
Some are similar in direction.
Some are the complete opposite, with huge differences and almost no common ground.
If you can choose a sword style that suits you, it will naturally be easier to practice.
If it's the opposite... then it will be difficult.
As a goddess of the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace, Shen Yourong possesses extraordinary talent and Mastery three directions of swordsmanship, but compared to the true essence of swordsmanship, she is but Cang Sea.
"This is it!"
Shen Yourong gritted her teeth, closed her big eyes, reached out and took the Martial Seal that was closest to her.
Let fate decide!
Judging from the shape of the Martial Seal alone, it is impossible to determine what kind of martial arts is inscribed on it.
"The assessment begins a quarter of a month later!"
The spirit of the artifact reminded me.
Shen Yourong immediately sat down cross-legged, placed the Martial Seal on his forehead, and began the transmission of the martial arts.
Yu Wei stepped forward, bowed slightly to Ning Chuan, and said with a light smile, "Your Excellency, a quarter moonlit night lasts for three hours. My disciple's assessment will be completed before the next round can begin. I apologize for the inconvenience and ask you to wait a moment."
Ning Chuan smiled casually, "It's alright."
Yu Wei smiled and took her leave.
Half an hour later.
Shen Yourong put down the seal, her large, dark eyes brimming with undisguised joy, and said, "Master, Grandma Li, this is wonderful! This is a fast sword technique, perfectly suited to my sword cultivation path!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Wei and the old woman were equally overjoyed.
The higher the fit, the easier it is to cultivate.
Shen Yourong might actually be able to clear the game!
Yu Wei took a deep breath, suppressing her excitement, and said, "Stop grinning like an idiot, quickly concentrate on understanding it. If there's anything you can't figure out, just ask me and the old woman. There are only two hours left!"
"Um!"
Shen Yourong closed her eyes and pondered intently.
Beside her, Ning Chuan glanced at her. The transmission only took about a quarter of an hour, so it couldn't possibly be a profound martial art.
Unsurprisingly, it's at the bottom of the Low Thick Earth Tier.
But thinking about it, it makes sense.
Including the time required for the transmission, it only took three hours.
If it's a martial art of the Firmament or Stars Sky rank, the examinee can't even get to the Initiation, so how can we Heaven Severing?
At this moment, Qin Ya transmitted her voice, " Ning Chuan, which type of martial arts are you planning to choose?"
"Swordsmanship? Spearmanship? Or something else?"
Qin Ya guessed casually.
Ning Chuan smiled and said, "I don't know, I'll just choose randomly and leave it to luck. I hope I can inherit a novel martial art."
Qin Ya: "..."
Looking at Ning Chuan in his black robe, Qin Ya rolled her eyes, so angry she wanted to hit him.
However, she also knew.
Ning Chuan wasn't putting on an act; he was simply stating the facts.
With his talent, learning martial arts now would be a piece of cake!
Qin Ya changed the subject, saying, "Never mind, let's not talk about this anymore. What are your plans for winter break?"
Ning Chuan casually remarked, " The Donglin Government seems to have invited me to participate in the District 99 Pride of Heaven Battle at the end of the year."
"Isn't that a competition between the new generation of geniuses?"
" Instructor Qin, I am not yet 18 years old."
"..."
The two chatted intermittently.
During the conversation.
Three hours passed.
The assessment begins!
Buzz!
A mechanical puppet appeared out of thin air, exuding a powerful aura. Holding a slender, sharp sword, it gently trembled, unleashing dozens of sword shadows that pierced the sky and enveloped Shen Yourong.
Swish!
Shen Yourong dodged in a flash, appearing behind the mechanical puppet. She thrust out her sword, and surging Force swirled around it, splitting into seven or eight sword shadows, their fluctuations sharp and sharp, moving alongside the sword in her hand.
Seeing this, Ning Chuan raised his eyebrows.
Shen Yourong's swordsmanship has reached Proficiency Realm.
Although it's only a basic, Low Thick Earth Tier martial art, achieving this level within three hours is quite impressive.
Bang!
The mechanical puppet swung its sword backhand, unleashing a devastating sword shadow that shattered Shen Yourong's attack.
Shen Yourong used her movement technique to dodge again.
"The mechanical puppet's swordsmanship is Minute Subtlety Realm level. In a direct confrontation, Shen Yourong is no match for it. In terms of movement and combat skills, the two are not far apart. If Shen Yourong wants to win, she needs to find another way."
Ning Chuan watched the game while analyzing it.
Suddenly, Shen Yourong changed her fighting style. Gritting her teeth, she withstood a slash from the mechanical puppet, trading injury for injury, and thrust out her sword. Seven or eight sword shadows streaked across the sky, striking the mechanical puppet with lightning speed.
Bang!
Both sides took several steps back.
The mechanical puppet is made of sturdy material and has no visible damage to its surface.
On Shen Yourong's left shoulder, her clothes were torn, revealing a sword wound. However, no blood flowed out; instead, it shimmered with iridescent light and emitted a faint fragrance.
" The Supreme Physique: Flower God Physique!"
Ning Chuan's eyes narrowed, and he understood.
Bang, bang, bang...
Swords clashed, the Force surged!
Relying on the unique characteristics of her Flower God Physique, Shen Yourong employed a strategy of trading blows for damage, engaging in a fierce battle with the mechanical puppet.
After hundreds of moves.
The mechanical puppet's sunken eye sockets dimmed.
Shen Yourong has won!
A Pyrrhic victory!
Her condition was extremely poor. She was kneeling on one knee, her clothes torn in large sections, and her body covered with hundreds of sword wounds of varying sizes.
Although there was no bleeding, the person's overall demeanor was extremely weak.
The power of the Flower God Physique is not limitless.
"Master, I did it!"
A weak voice rang out.
Shen Yourong face blossomed into a bright smile.
She wanted to clear all seven levels, regardless of her reputation.
The most important reason is to deter those forces that covet the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace.
The Supreme Elder's time is drawing near.
The situation of the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace in recent years has been far from optimistic.
As an ancient power with a long history, the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace possesses extraordinary resources and numerous treasures. However, without sufficient strength to protect them, it will only invite great disaster.
"Don't speak, just focus on healing your wounds!"
Yu Wei, unable to contain her joy, hurriedly took out some medicine extracted from precious herbs and gave it to Shen Yourong.
"It's alright, Master, I haven't reached the limit of the Flower God Physique yet!"
Shen Yourong smiled and comforted her.
The medicine worked well, and her breathing gradually stabilized.
Seeing this, Yu Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and then her beautiful face couldn't help but show a smile.
If one's own disciple clears the seventh level, once the news spreads, it can offset some of the negative impact of the Supreme Elder's approaching death.
Thinking of this, Yu Wei looked at Ning Chuan and softly requested, "Your Excellency, could you please keep the process of Yourong passing the seventh level a secret? If you have any requests, the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace is willing to do its utmost to assist you."
Shen Yourong relied on the characteristics of the Flower God Physique to kill a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of her own.
To some extent, it can be considered a shortcut.
If it can be concealed, the deterrent effect will be even better.
Ning Chuan calmly said, "It's just a matter of keeping it a secret; there's no need for further requests."
Hearing this, Yu Wei felt relieved, bowed slightly, and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency."
Given the other party's high status, they are unlikely to lie.
At this moment, the space in front of Ning Chuan fluctuated, and hundreds of Martial Seal appeared.
His assessment has begun.
Choose one!
The spirit's voice rang out, loud and clear.
Yu Wei and Shen Yourong exchanged a glance and looked over. The type of weapon and martial arts the other party had chosen could reveal a lot of information.
However, the next moment, the master and apprentice froze in their tracks.
Because the black-robed youth didn't say a word, but with his right hand outstretched and five fingers spread, he casually took down a Martial Seal without the slightest hesitation.
