After all, she is no longer the naïve little girl who had just joined the sect, the more she knew, the clearer she understood her own insignificance.
"Just do your best."
Chen Yi comforted her with a smile, then waved to several people in the arena, and joined Ning Xue and others.
Compared to the other peaks, the population on Sword Edge Mountain was sparse.
Excluding those outer sect disciples who did not have the qualifications to co and watch, the entire Sword Cultivator lineage had only twenty-three disciples.
Standing among the watching disciples, they were very inconspicuous.
But as soon as the leading Chen Yi and Ning Xue stood still, they attracted countless gazes.
"Brother Chen really isn't participating in this minor examination."
"What a pity, I still wanted to see Junior Brother Chen's style."
"Yes, it's Great Sword Intent after all, truly frightening..."
Not only the crowd, but also several people who were acquainted with Chen Yi in the arena looked towards him.
Lin Xueru was smiling brightly, her stunning face seeming to glow.
She waved to Chen Yi and transmitted her voice: "Brother Yi, watch carefully."
Chen Yi smiled and replied, "I look forward to your performance."
Then he chatted with the young girl for a while, asking her to focus on the sect's minor examination.
Having just finished their conversation, he heard the voice of Hua Xianzi beside him: "Brother Chen, how is my sister preparing now?"
Chen Yi imdiately looked towards her and transmitted back, "Sister Er Hua, her Sword Dao has reached Great Achievent, her performance should be good."
"That's good."
Hua Xianzi turned her head, her expression slightly complex.
She could only think of this reason to approach Chen Yi at this ti.
It's not that she couldn't think of sothing better, but anything too strange she couldn't bring herself to say.
"Sister, you're not worried, are you?"
At this ti, Ning Xue, looking at Chen Yi whose lips were slightly moving, asked softly.
Chen Yi smiled and said, "Senior Sister, don't worry."
Although a night had passed, and he had co to terms with many things, the fact that Chen Yuan was the Absolute Blade Inheritor still weighed on his mind.
"That's good," Ning Xue thought of the hand-holding from yesterday, her gaze turning towards Lin Xueru in the arena, her expression slightly sad: "The minor examination is about to start."
Chen Yi imdiately focused his mind, watching the center of the arena.
...
"This ti, the Grand Void Sect's minor examination is of great importance. I hope all disciples treat it seriously and give it their all!"
Xiao Huang managed a few words, indicating that the examination could begin.
Then Gu Tiangang, as the main examiner for this minor examination, announced the rules of the entire minor exam.
The Grand Void Sect's minor examination was not overly complicated but was also not simple, at least much more comprehensive than the competitions at Wuliang Mountain to determine winners.
"The first round, demons test courage!"
"The second round, Illusion Realm tests the mind!"
"The third round, Martial Arts competition!"
"The nine disciples who perform most excellently in these three rounds will be the winners of this minor examination."
Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but look towards Chen Yi outside of the arena, knowing clear in their hearts that he was the last and also the first winner.
Chen Yi kept a calm expression, ignoring the gazes around him, as if they did not exist.
And as Gu Tiangang finished the announcent, the minor examination imdiately began.
The first round, demons test courage, was to examine the young disciples' courage as well as a comprehensive assessnt of their Martial Arts.
The entire process was similar to Xiao Xuanzhen's initial assessnt previously.
The difference was that this ti, the demons that appeared were Blood Scale Demons with strength comparable to the Fifth Grade Core Formation Realm.
Not one, not two, but a total of five Blood Scale Demons.
Their huge size nearly occupied half of the area of the Martial Arts Arena, their fierce and indifferent gaze sweeping around, howling incessantly.
"Hiss!"
The disciples waiting for the examination had not yet entered the stage, the inheritors from various peaks watching outside already gasped.
"Five fifth-grade... I'm already starting to feel relieved that I did not qualify to participate in this minor examination."
"If it were standing there, I probably couldn't even stand steadily."
"Don't be frightened, the first assessnt does not require fighting them, you just need to prove you have the courage."
That said, most of the disciples outside the arena with lesser strength, looking at the ferocious Blood Scale Demons, remained pale in the face.
And among those participating in the minor examination, although most looked a bit better, so had sweat on their foreheads.
"Sister, I... I want to admit defeat now..."
Hua Yourong clutched Hua Xianzi's arm, just one glance at them made her heart pound terrifyingly.
"Admit defeat when it's your turn."
Hua Xianzi knew of her sister's temperant, and she understood the terror of the five Blood Scale Demons in front of them.
But after comforting Hua Yourong, in her mind, she thought of another matter.
If she rembered correctly, the Blood Scale Demon that Brother Chen had slain in Jiangnan Prefecture was a Fourth Grade Realm demon.
Back then, he was so young, yet his strength and bravery were so formidable...
With this thought, Hua Xianzi looked again towards the disciples of Taixu Peak, towards Lin Xueru.
Seeing a similar thoughtful expression on her face, Hua Xianzi suspected she must also be thinking of Brother Chen.
At this mont, Gu Tiangang read out the na, "First up, Taixu Peak's Xiao Xuanzhen!"
Xiao Xuanzhen stepped forward unhurriedly, her heart devoid of any fear.
Despite knowing the five Blood Scale Demons had strength up to the fifth-grade Core Formation Realm and could jointly tear apart a Fourth Grade Spirit Aperture Realm Martial Artist, she was still confident.
This was because, apart from her cultivation level, her techniques had also achieved accomplishnts through diligent training.
All of her Taixu Eight Skills had reached the Great Achievent Realm, even slightly better than the Great Achievent of Sword Dao or Sword Dao.
This is why the Path of the Grand Void stands proudly among the various inheritances of the Taoist traditions!
"Roar!"
The five Blood Scale Demons stared at Xiao Xuanzhen, their claws scratching on the stone slabs, emitting a grating noise.
Gu Tiangang ford a talismanic incantation with his hand, cautioning, "Be careful, Nephew Xiao."
