Su Chen returned to the courtyard where he lived. In my mind, I kept thinking about today's test. The water flow behind Tianxuan Town seems to be experiencing some special situation. So many warriors felt a tremendous pressure after entering the pit. Without having experienced it, it’s hard to say what’s so strange about the water. But the experience you take part in in Tianxuan Town should all be related to this water. Su Chen had no way of asking Tao Mu about the doubts in his heart. Although he, as a servant, has lived in Tianxuan Town for many years, how much can he know about matters related to martial arts? Rest overnight. The second round of tests started in the afternoon today.
Apparently, this was to give more time to the warriors who participated in the first round of tests yesterday. The first round of tests consumed so much energy and physical strength. If you can rest for half a day longer, your recovery will naturally be better. However, compared with others who received middle-level invitation orders, the disadvantage is still obvious. The second round of tests is still at the bottom of Tianxuan Waterfall. There is a plank road here, and usually only a small stream of water flows through it. The second round of test is to stop on the plank road. As the competition began, the water flow on the plank road increased sharply. Among the warriors standing on it, whoever can hold on to the end will win the final victory. The rules are simple and almost the same as the first round. Those who win today will be able to participate in the final training. Those who can enter the second round will not give up easily like they did yesterday. No matter if they were promoted from the first round or received a middle-level invitation order. It's not easy for anyone to get this opportunity. It's not that easy to give up. Su Chen looked at the surging water rushing down the plank road. For warriors, the impact force of this water flow should be completely negligible. But the water flow here in Tianxuan Town is indeed different. Su Chen could see the endurance on the faces of these warriors. When they encountered these currents, they seemed to be resisting numerous difficulties and dangers.
When he first arrived in Jin State, Su Chen had been to the precious land of Quicksand in Tianfeng Valley. Facing the scouring of quicksand, Su Chen saw that no one else showed such a difficult expression. Among the younger generation of Tianxuan Valley, the top disciples have only just reached the fifth rank. They belonged to the middle and lower class clan in Jin State. It is obvious that the turbulent water on this plank road is a greater threat than quicksand. The difficulty may require some preparation in advance. The invitation to a higher level allows you to directly participate in the final training. But if the performance in the final training is too poor, I am afraid I won’t get much benefit. It is indeed good to make some preparations in advance. The second round of tests lasted nearly two hours. Everyone present wants to get the final qualification for the training. None of them was willing to give in. In the end, many people were exhausted and were washed away by the rushing water. Some people reach out to grab others as they are washed away. The smarter and more experienced ones would avoid it early. At the end of the second round of tests, only thirteen people were left. Including Su Chen, there are also the high-ranking warriors invited by the other six forces to participate. A total of twenty people finally participated in this year's Tianxuan training. Before Su Chen returned to the courtyard to rest, he learned more from Taomu. He doesn't have a deep understanding of the specific mysteries of training. I can only tell Su Chen some empirical situations, including what he needs to pay attention to. Where should we go to wait tomorrow? What is the entire process of participating in the training, etc. It cannot be said that this information is useless, at least it saves me a lot of trouble. The training time will start at 3:00 . tomorrow. There are a total of twenty people participating in the whole training, which is not a small number, so we have to leave early. It will take more than three hours, and it should be finished before dark. Su Chen felt that their entire process was actually quite urgent.
But it's not surprising at all. The training in Tianxuan Town only happens once a year. If you want to make the treasure land work, you have to pay some price. Because of these costs, the entire experience must be done in a hurry. There is no time to waste, and Tianxuan Town cannot postpone the training. Scheduling it for tomorrow afternoon was the best they could think of. The night flew by. After Su Chen rested, he arrived at Tianxuan Waterfall again. I didn’t go to the observation deck today. If you want to participate in the formal training, just stand directly under the Tianxuan Waterfall. When Su Chen arrived, there were already many people waiting around. The others who received lower and middle level invitations but ultimately did not get the qualification to train were now standing in the distance watching. This should be considered one of the benefits of being invited. Although I didn't pass the test, I was able to watch it live in the end and learn from the experience. Many of them will find opportunities to come next year. There were many people present, gathered in groups of three or four. They were talking to each other, and many warriors who came alone were also pulled together to talk. The warriors who were able to get an invitation to come to Tianxuan Town all had some background. It never hurts to get to know each other. But after Su Chen arrived here, he encountered a lot of people pointing fingers at him behind his back. No one came forward to introduce themselves. More than that, it has become a topic of conversation among others. They should have known long ago how Su Chen got the invitation to the higher position. His status and identity are completely different from those of other people who received invitations to higher positions. Others mocked Xu Qiming, and Xu Qiming became even more resentful towards Su Chen. In this situation, anyone with eyes would not approach Su Chen. Talking and getting closer to Su Chen is an approach that sees absolutely no benefits and can only see disadvantages. While waiting, Xu Qiming stood not far away with a gloomy face.
There was a middle-aged woman next to him. If Su Chen guessed correctly, she should be Xu Shengying from Golden Bell Club. The person Qiu Xiyu asked him to look for after arriving in Tianxuan Town should be her. It seems that Qiu Xiyu has always thought that the invitation to promotion that he received came from Kim Jong-hui. But in fact, Xu Shengying played some tricks and asked Xu Qiming to give her jade token. There was no sign of anger on Xu Shengying's face. But she felt extremely uncomfortable in her heart. During the days when Xu Qiming was being ridiculed, she, as a senior executive of the Golden Bell Club, was also the subject of a lot of teasing. Everyone at the top is smart. Everyone can see what Xu Shengying was thinking before. I want to get closer to the Qiu family and get closer to the geniuses of the Qiu family. It is normal to have such thoughts. However, the arrangements made resulted in a complete defeat. It’s just that as senior executives, they all have to look after each other’s reputation. In their core circle, it was okay to tease and joke around, but they would never sabotage or embarrass Xu Shengying in front of young people. It is impossible for everyone to have a smooth life. If you encounter such a situation and someone takes advantage of your misfortune, don't blame others for retaliating harshly the next time you get into trouble. The time has come. In front of Tianxuan Waterfall, a slightly older man stepped forward. "Welcome everyone to Tianxuan Town. Today is the last day of Tianxuan's training. I will give you a brief introduction." There wasn't much nutritious content in the old man's words. The rules of the Tianxuan Waterfall training are actually very simple. Just start from here and walk up step by step. Along the way, that is, on the cliffs where the waterfall hangs, there are many mechanisms. After pressing all the mechanisms, walk to the top of the waterfall. From here at the top, you can see the outlet of Tianxuan Waterfall. What the warrior needs to do is to rush into the fast-flowing water. Inside this water outlet is the treasure land that can truly bring benefits to warriors.
The experience of Tianxuan Waterfall happens once a year. It was only after listening to what the old man in front of him said that Su Chen realized that this waterfall was usually dry. The waterfall only forms during this period of time every year. The mechanism on the cliff will only produce some effect at this time. Only then can you be touched and truly step into that treasure land. So it’s not that Tianxuan Town deliberately scheduled the schedule so full. They are worried that the Tianxuan Waterfall will stop and dry up at any time. After listening to the master's explanation, Su Chen looked at Tao Mu beside him and asked some more questions. Every year, during the training at Tianxuan Waterfall, how many people can enter that precious land? Hearing Su Chen's question, Taomu smiled somewhat awkwardly. "You are joking, young master. To be able to walk halfway through the Tianxuan Waterfall is already an extremely talented genius. If you go through 80% of the way, you will be praised by countless people. Those who can truly reach the top and enter the treasure land. It will take at least three or four years for one to show up.” Hearing this, Su Chen looked up, wondering what mysteries there were in that rushing waterfall. At the side, I saw Su Chen's eyes were always on that highest point. Taomu couldn't help but persuade Su Chen. "Sir, in fact, only one person in Tianxuan Town reached the top of Tianxuan Waterfall last year. According to past rules." Tao Mu's words made Su Chen want to laugh. “A warrior who can reach the top appears every three or four years. So there were people like this last year, but no one made it to the top this year? Is that what you mean?" Taomu didn't reply, but his expression clearly showed that he wanted to tell Su Chen that this was the fact. Su Chen really wanted to tell him that probability was not calculated in this way. After hesitating for a moment, he just smiled. After the old man standing under the waterfall finished his polite words, today's training officially began. Just as the old man said. Being able to come to Tianxuan Town is an experience.
Not participating in this final climb was a valuable experience. Even if you participate and fail halfway, it is also a valuable experience. The vast majority of people experience the process of climbing, and after this process, they feel that they have been tempered. Not many people can actually reach the top and enter that final treasure land. The experience of participating in the process is already a great gain for everyone. The polite words have been said, and next comes the real experience of Tianxuan Waterfall. The most interesting competition is actually today. The first two days were less fun. Watching the warrior who climbed up, he fell down due to exhaustion. Falling directly from the mountainside into the valley actually gives you an indescribable sense of pleasure. I saw those who won themselves fall one by one in the final training. It is indeed worth seeing. The training is about to begin, and the next step is to line up. There are six forces in Tianxuan Town. The people invited by each party stood behind their respective forces. Although he was very reluctant, Xu Qiming still walked in front of Su Chen. "Please come over here." They have to do what the rules say. Jin Zhonghui dared not disobey the established rules. Su Chen didn't waste any more time talking to them and directly stood on the side of Kim Jong-hui. Guests who come using the upper-level invitation order can also choose the order. Of course Su Chen chose to stay behind and see how others performed and if there was anything he needed his attention. The people from An Ge started first. The water of Tianxuan Waterfall is fast, and after seeing the tests of the previous two days. Su Chen believed that the water here must be somewhat special. Before, it was extremely difficult for them to stay in the water and stand firm. Not to mention having to withstand the turbulent water and climb upwards. As the first person came into contact with the water, his expression began to change.
Without hesitation, he began to climb. And below him, there were already guards ready to pick him up in case he fell. The first person to set out seemed to have some skills. The start is relatively stable. Faced with the onslaught of water, he was clearly able to withstand the pressure. Go up step by step. His condition seemed to be pretty good, but it was totally different from what a fifth-rank warrior should be like. If there were no other circumstances, a fifth-rank warrior's physique should be able to climb up easily without the need for any physical skills. The entire waterfall is almost a hundred feet high. In a mountain range with such complex terrain, it is not even worthy of the word "hanging waterfall". But the first person didn't even climb up a quarter of the way and fell down directly. It looks like he didn't hold on firmly. The guards below caught it and sent it back. I fell from the middle and was soaked all over. This looks really embarrassing. The first person fails, followed by the second. When everyone present saw the result of the first person, many of them had a smile of contempt on their faces. Obviously, the performance of this first person was quite poor. There were also people in the crowd who made comments. Just comment on it right in front of the person who has just participated in the training. “The basic skills are so poor that when the water rushes, all the thoughts are washed away. It's not that I didn't hold on firmly, but rather that I was confused and just followed my instinct to climb up." “It’s almost the same situation, our own strength is too different. It's a good idea, but it's simply impossible to put it into practice. The huge gap between reality and fantasy makes people feel confused. Failure is no surprise.” Many of the people commenting around were from the younger generation of the six forces. That is, the young people who laughed at Xu Qiming when Su Chen first came.
