I am a coroner, and I have some knowledge of martial arts!

The land of eternal life.

The True Yang Sect is located at the summit of the back mountain.

The sect leader slowly floated down to the mountaintop, his gaze fixed on the mountain wall.

There appears to be a statue on the mountainside, seemingly integrated with the entire mountainside.

"My life"

"The selection of the Holy Son has begun."

As the sect leader's voice faded, the figure embedded in the mountain wall suddenly opened its eyes, dust falling from its body.

Ren Pingsheng emerged from within the mountain wall and bowed respectfully: "Master."

The sect leader smiled and said, "It seems that your diligent cultivation over this period of time has not been wasted."

Ren Pingsheng's expression remained unchanged.

The sect leader continued, "The Mad Elder's disciple, Chi Kuang, has returned from the Valley of Ten Thousand Cultivators and has now reached the mid-stage of the fifth rank. Are you confident in your abilities?"

"This disciple is determined to win the selection of the Holy Son."

Faced with Ren Pingsheng's confidence, the sect leader simply nodded and turned to walk down the mountain.

Ren Pingsheng followed behind.

"How is Senior Brother?"

"He is on the Cliff of Repentance."

"Master, although Senior Brother's actions were somewhat excessive, he is ultimately..."

"Let's not talk about him."

The sect leader interrupted Ren Pingsheng, saying, "If you can truly assume the position of Holy Son, I can cripple his cultivation and expel him from the True Yang Sect."

Ren Pingsheng remained silent.

perhaps.

Is this the best possible outcome?

Test the waters.

Let us test our mettle and challenge the world with our swords.

Any disputes among the disciples would be resolved here.

Today, the area around the testing platform has already been occupied by disciples of the sect.

The disciples eagerly awaited their arrival, their discussions buzzing with anticipation.

It is unknown who will emerge victorious in the upcoming competition and become the new Holy Son.

"Senior Brother Qiyuan from Zhongjian Peak has arrived!"

"The crazy senior brother is here."

"Senior Sister Liu Ruyun from Fufeng is here too!"

"Wow, they're all top-tier disciples from various peaks!"

"..."

Amid the murmurs of the crowd.

Disciples from the five peaks of the Zhenyang Sect all arrived at the scene.

The top disciples of the five peaks—Zhongjian Peak, Fu Peak, Zhen Peak, Qi Peak, and Dan Peak—along with Chi Kuang and others.

……

Inside the shop.

Su Wuchen sipped his cola and watched the opening scene with a smile on his face.

Very awesome.

This painting was well worth the 1,000 yuan.

Su Wuchen: [Old man, how are the top disciples in the peaks doing?]

Mad Elder: [Just average, nothing more than a swordsman, a talisman player, a dog toy maker, and a medicine seller.]

Su Wuchen: [???]

OK OK.

You're all just a bunch of worthless bastards, aren't you?

Su Wuchen's gaze fell on Ren Pingsheng, who was following behind the sect leader, as the sect leader appeared.

He had an ordinary appearance and no trace of primordial energy; he seemed like just an ordinary person standing on the roadside.

It's really unremarkable.

but.

This person's talent is undoubtedly evident, given that he was accepted into the sect by the sect leader.

Perhaps, everything before our eyes is just a facade he's putting on.

[Recently, the Holy Son Zhang Zhao violated the sect's rules. After investigation, he has been imprisoned on the Cliff of Repentance to reflect on his actions. The position of Holy Son is indispensable.]

[After deliberation by the elders and peak masters, a new Holy Son will be chosen.]

Those who possess both virtue and talent, outstanding abilities, and strict adherence to sect rules must not bully fellow disciples.

[Disciples participating in the selection process, please take the stage!]

As the sect leader's voice fell, Su Wuchen and the others flew onto the testing platform together.

Besides the top disciples of the Five Peaks, the eight people participating in the selection of the Holy Son include Su Wuchen, a disciple of the Mad Elder; Tingxin, a disciple of the Law Enforcement Elder; and Weizhen, a disciple of the Transmission Elder.

Of course, it wasn't just Su Wuchen and the other eight; it's just that Su Wuchen and the others were stronger than the others.

If you don't have enough strength and you fall on the trial stage in just one round, what's the point of selecting someone?

As for those who possess both virtue and talent, and strictly adhere to clan rules, those can only be considered after they have secured the position of Holy Son.

With a flick of his sleeve, the sect leader sent a divination stick container to Su Wuchen and the others.

There are eight sticks in the container; those whose sticks match at the beginning and end will draw the corresponding sticks for the next draw.

【Yes. 】

Everyone took turns drawing lots and then revealing their lot numbers.

Su Wuchen drew number six, so his opponent should be Qi Yuan, Zhong Jianfeng's eldest disciple, who drew number three.

When Su Wuchen looked over, Qi Yuan was also looking at him with a smile.

As the draw concluded, a beam of light illuminated the trial stage, instantly dividing the entire stage into four sections.

Upon seeing this.

Su Wuchen and the others understood and walked into an area in pairs.

[My mad junior brother, I heard you've been cultivating in the Valley of Ten Thousand Cultivators for thirty years, and your strength has improved considerably?]

Qi Yuan said with a smile, "Please go easy on me, Junior Brother."

[Senior Brother Qiyuan, you flatter me. It should be the senior brother taking care of the junior brother.]

【it is good. 】

Qi Yuan smiled and nodded, raising her hand to summon a flying sword that swirled around her.

The flying sword has a very peculiar design. The hilt is like a sphere, but the blade is extremely short, making it look like a fat sword rather than a flying sword.

[Automatic Attack]

[Live-action practice]

Is there even a question?

Of course, it's hands-on practice with real people!

Su Wuchen flipped his hand, and the Bright Moon Dragon Spear appeared in his palm. Let me test the skill of this Senior Brother Zhong Jianfeng!

Upon seeing this.

Qi Yuan immediately raised her eyebrows.

We're all cultivators, why aren't you using flying swords, but a spear?

[Junior brother, be careful.]

After Qi Yuan gave a reminder, the flying sword transformed into a streak of light and headed straight for Su Wuchen's face.

Ding!

The spear tip precisely intercepted the flying sword, knocking it away, and then, like a dragon emerging from the sea, headed straight for Qi Yuan.

however.

The flying sword that Su Wuchen knocked away actually circled halfway in the air before suddenly transforming into three flying swords, blocking Su Wuchen's attack and forcing him to retreat and parry.

At the same time, Qi Yuan strode forward, a flying sword landed in his hand, and he attacked Su Wuchen!

Good guy.

He truly deserves to be Zhong Jianfeng's senior brother.

He can control three flying swords at the same time and do it so coolly.

But it's a pity.

[Frozen!]

The icy chill did not freeze Qi Yuan immediately; it only paused for a moment before the flying sword in Qi Yuan's hand appeared in Su Wuchen's sight.

Water Shield

Earthen wall

The water shield disappeared, and the earthen wall shattered, but it successfully withstood Qi Yuan's attack.

[Senior Brother Qiyuan's strength is indeed formidable!]

But what if I start using random, indiscriminate attacks? How would you respond?

【…? 】

Before Qi Yuan could react, Su Wuchen charged at her with his gun.

An inch longer means an inch stronger; the advantage is very obvious!

Qi Yuan had no choice but to retreat and control the remaining two flying swords to stab at Su Wuchen.

Ding ding.

This time, Su Wuchen did not block it, but let the flying sword land on him, and then the spear continued to thrust towards Qi Yuan with undiminished momentum.

In that instant.

Qi Yuan was a little confused.

His flying sword couldn't even break through Su Wuchen's defense?

"Take this, my Great Halberd Strike!"

Qiyuan was defeated.

He was very unwilling, even somewhat aggrieved.

He was completely taken aback when he saw the golden dragon armor on Su Wuchen's body.

[Junior brother, why are you wearing armor?]

[There's no rule against wearing armor in this competition, is there?]

Su Wuchen smiled broadly. This was a Grade 3 Golden Dragon Armor, with an invincible buff.

Why would he keep it if he wasn't wearing it?

Offering sacrifices?

Qi Yuan gritted his teeth and cursed Su Wuchen for his lack of martial ethics.

Both of them were at the mid-stage of the fifth rank, but Su Wuchen was wearing a suit of armor that even his flying sword couldn't break through. What was the point of fighting?

I give up!
