Chapter 24: New Warrior Click]

The Giant Rock Warrior Academy, after walking through the square and bell tower, a section of forest road, there is a staggered and elegant house in the forest. This is the power center of the Martial Arts Academy, where the masters and superiors rest and handle affairs, etc.

The elegant and spacious dean Curie, rows of bookshelves are filled with books of all kinds, green vines are climbing across the wall, and some landscape paintings are hanging on the wall, which adds to the tranquility. A game of unfinished Go is placed on a mahogany plate next to the window. Although white and black pieces intersect, white pieces occupy nine star positions such as Tianyuan. Looking out from the window, it is a blue sky.

Stepping... With a heavy sound of footsteps, Gai Kui walked in with a roll of paper. He looked at the middle-aged man standing behind the desk and was about to make a sound. The man had already spoken softly, "Gai Kui, has the results of the new warrior assessment come out this year?"

"Yes." Gai Kui walked slowly. The middle-aged man was wearing a elegant white robe, with long hair scattered, handsome face, and a goatee on his chin. He was as calm as late autumn. It was a warrior realm that Gai Kui could not see through, and was out of reach. He reported: "Director Qi, five people have passed the final assessment this year. These are their registration forms and test papers."

After saying that, he put the paper in his hand into the empty space beside the table. Although there were ten places this year, only five people survived and became new warriors. All of them were in the same group, just as the boy shouted, those who did not follow him were dead.

The middle-aged man did not look at the information. He did not raise his head and continued to wave the brush in his hand, and focused on painting. After drawing a few more strokes, he suddenly said: "Five people are half less than the scheduled quota. Those guys should be satisfied. Is there any special person this time?"

Thinking of the entire four levels of the assessment, one person naturally had to mention it. Gaiquet said immediately: "Yes, an eighteen-year-old boy named Xin Lie."

When the man heard this, he just said "Oh?", but he also showed a hint of curiosity. This question is just a routine matter. In previous years, Gai Kui would say that it was not. This year, it actually happened?

"This Xin Lie is extremely talented, proficient in fighting, has strategy, is brave, witty, and decisive. He is different from ordinary people. This person is very backbone and ambitious, and is the best among the children of ordinary people." Although Gai Kui's voice was plain, his words could not hide his appreciation. He talked about Xin Lie's performance in detail about saving people and killing eagles, fighting against everyone in the last level. At the end, he couldn't help but sigh: "I have never seen such a person in the past ten years since I was the chief examiner."

The man was silent for a moment. It sounded like this, not only Gai Kui’s ten years, but also looking at all the years when the new warriors in the Giant Rock Martial Arts Academy were all unprecedented heroes... He nodded and said, "Please pay more attention to him."

"Yes." Gai Kui wanted to speak but stopped, but he swallowed the words back to his stomach and retreated silently.

The middle-aged man continued to splash ink, and the Yashe was quiet. After a long time, a frozen valley with heavy snow was seen flying on the paper. He picked up a jade seal on the table and covered the edge of the scroll. Dong, Qi's wheat ear totem and a name printed the scroll.

He then took the test paper materials, looked through them for a while, then smiled faintly, and whispered: "Dreams? Chasing dreams always requires a price. Xin Lie, how much can you pay..."

...

The latest issue of "Giant Rock Warrior Times" is freshly released with the ink smell, and this year's new list of civilian warriors has been published!

Dibao, tabloids, miscellaneous newspapers, times... After hundreds of years of development, coupled with the rise of spiritual technology, the media industry in Jiuzhou is now very developed.

Like other media industries, all legal newspapers are regulated and participated by the government. The Giant Rock Warrior Times is one of the major newspapers in Dongrao, with the highest circulation, not only covering the Giant Rock area, but also selling to other states. It publishes current affairs of some warriors in Dongrao every issue, such as who broke through to what martial arts realm, which company found a treasure where, as well as some competitions, marriage situations, etc.

Of course, generally speaking, it is only circulated in the warrior class, which is also written into the law. Civilians are not allowed to visit the warrior newspapers; but when they do not cause trouble for the verbal team, sometimes some news will spread through the mouths of the crowd.

This is the same. Although the reports about the new warriors were published in the corner of the Martial Arts Academy, they were enough to attract the attention of those who were interested. The warriors in the entire Giant Rock City were the first to know this news, and then quickly spread to the public through slaves and servants. In the 383rd of the New Calendar, five civilian children stood out and were recruited by the Giant Rock Martial Arts Academy as the first generation of civilian warriors. They were Xin Lie, Cheng Lei, Huang Yu, He Zhong, and Tian Cang.

"Affected by the wind and snow, the assessment this year is more difficult than before." Wu Zong Gaikui, who served as chief examiner for the tenth consecutive year, was interviewed by the Times. His comment said: "These five people are brave and resourceful, especially Xin Lie. Their performance is actually a talent among the common people and can be of great use. I hope these five people will work diligently after entering the Martial Arts Academy, and will not be respected for their superiors and inferiority, perform their duties, and will not be humiliated as a warrior."

In martial arts courtyards, restaurants, streets... people talk about the list of new warriors everywhere. If a warrior has the least power and strength, it can be asked to make the civilians talk with confidence, and these five lucky guys are these five lucky guys.

"Xin Lie? Is it the fool who collided with the examiner?", "That guy is very stupid, the 99th place in the literary exam.", "Xin Lie is indeed brave. He saved a woman when he crossed the bridge. Without him, I might have died."...

Those who were still on the giant rocks were naturally in a complicated mood, and countless people were jealous and hated, and many people were happy and sighed. Some of the deeds of Xin Lie who saved people and killed eagles were also spread in the assessment.

Whip...

A four-wheeled carriage boarded the bridge and headed towards the Martial Arts Academy. In the simple carriage, a pair of slender and fair jade hands flipped over a page of the newspaper, and suddenly a crisp and happy shout of cry came out: "Xin Lie, that person! He passed the assessment!"

"Who? Xin Lie?" Looking at the eldest lady's bright smile, the maid Yuxiang was full of confusion, and she could hardly react to what she was saying. Da! Xuanyuan Tianyu knocked Yuxiang in the head and smiled: "I really don't remember. It's the man at Xiaodukou a few days ago." Yuxiang tried hard to recall the scene of that day, snowflakes, crows, bread, the eldest lady was talking to a boy... She suddenly remembered who it was and said: "That tall, handsome guy with a blue scarf on his forehead..."

Tianyu nodded: "Yes! It's him." Yuxiang muttered in a low voice: "You haven't told me that his name is Xin Lie."

"No?" Tianyu was stunned, as if there was no, da! She knocked her head and pointed at a corner of the newspaper, and smiled happily: "No, look, he is a new warrior!" Yuxiang looked at it with interest: "It's not bad."

"Well, but how difficult is the assessment this year... Why are there only five people?" Tianyu raised his eyebrows curiously. The assessment methods of new warriors in various martial arts academies are not the same. In fact, she is not very clear about her hometown and how to assess Juyan here. If it weren't for Xin Lie, she wouldn't care about this result. She hadn't understood it and had never had any ideas to understand.

Of course she knew that the assessment was very strict, and the new warrior's temperament, ability, qualifications and other aspects were all elites among the children of ordinary people. But before, she heard that there were twenty people last year? There were only five people this year.

"Many people died..." Yuxiang sighed, only this reason could explain it.

Tianyu frowned, because this made her unwilling to understand. She hated war, conflict, and frivolous competitions. In short, everyone would hate deaths. When she thought of hundreds, or even thousands of people who died due to the assessment, she felt... Tianyu couldn't help but bulge her cheeks and said angrily: "Is there no assessment method that doesn't require a dead person? There are hundreds of people here and hundreds of people there... It shouldn't be like this!"

"You, stop thinking about it. These things shouldn't be what you think of, and you don't understand." Yuxiang patted the eldest lady and good sister on the shoulders, knowing that she is a good person, but this girl has been too simple since the past... Yuxiang didn't point out that hundreds of people were hundreds of years ago.

Tianyu didn't say anything, and continued to read Gaikui's comment. He said with a "Huh!" as soon as he saw it, he opened his eyebrows and eyes in surprise and excitement, and said, "Look, 'Xinlie is the most important', 'It's very useful'! It can make Mr. Gaikui praise him so much, ha, Xinlie is so amazing!"

Although she came to Dongrao for a short time to study, she knew that she was highly appreciated by her family. She was respected by Mr. Gai Kui, who was respected in Juyan Martial Arts Academy. It can be said that he never praised anyone. No matter how difficult it is to get a "good" from a famous family, she would be happy for many days and spread it everywhere. However, she still has never heard of Gai Kui's praise of people. Now Xin Lie!

She was immediately full of curiosity. What kind of outstanding performance did Xin Lie have that made the "Iron-faced Mr. Gai Kui so praise him?

Yuxiang didn't seem to feel happy and said lightly: "I have always been a civilian warrior of the generation."

"But..." Tianyu wanted to refute something, but he only thought of Yuxiang's life experience and some other things. Although he didn't agree with it, he had no way to refute it and just pouted.

Yuxiang had another consideration. Gai Kui's praise might be a kindness, but did he ever think about how the famous children who did not receive his praise would treat this generation of civilian warriors? She shook her head and said, "The Iron-faced man did a bad thing this time. That Xin Lie really made a fuss about fishy things for no reason."

"Is that?" Tianyu immediately understood what she meant. As soon as she frowned, she suddenly looked full of interest. "Does he come to the Martial Arts Court today? I have to find him. We are friends." Yuxiang took a breath in shock when she heard this, and said in a hilarious way: "My lady, do you think he is not troublesome enough? Gai Kui is enough for him to bear it. You can join in the fun too? Oh my God! Do you want him to die?"

"What, stupid guy!" Tian Yu punched her angrily and said seriously: "Mr. Gai Kui shouldn't care anymore, but I'm here. Whoever wants to bully him should think about it first!"

This is true. Yuxiang nodded in agreement: "Well, it makes sense." Tianyu raised his eyes and thought about the situation of meeting Xin Lie. It would be very interesting, right? I hope he would not be afraid of her identity...

The carriage slowly drove into the martial arts courtyard, and the guards raised their hands to salute, until the carriage passed the offensive and defensive statue and entered the square and walked a long way. The hand they pressed in the heart still did not put down. No one had any thoughts of disrespect. The person sitting in the carriage was a family princess; and the star totem represented the overlords of the two states of Central Plains and Dongyuan.

The most powerful family in Jiuzhou, the mainland, is the leader of the eight major families, and the only ancient famous family that is dominated by the two states, Xuanyuan.

...

"Rural Boy Week" has resulted, and the teachers and students of the Juyan Martial Arts Academy, who are most passionate about this, are talking about it. If in previous years, this incident was just a breeze, and many people did not even have the interest to glance at the corner of the newspaper; then this year, because of Xin Lie's treatment, a stone caused a thousand waves and another storm!

It's very useful! It was evaluated by "Mr. Iron-faced" Gai Kui. He used to praise him, but he was interviewed by Deputy Kaogong and others. Now he actually said "very useful" and a first-generation civilian warrior!? Is he okay with his brain? Could it be that he has been practicing for a while?

And what kind of "Xin Lie" is that, who is it? What are the abilities?

In the dimly lit tavern, a unshaven man poured wine into the wine bowl while looking at the wrinkled "Giant Rock Warrior Times" in his hand. In a dim light, he suddenly remembered something, let out a string of "hahahaha" laughter, grabbed the big bowl with wine overflowing, and raised his head to drink...

In the library, in front of the huge bookshelf that reached the roof, several famous martial artists with different totems were referring to martial arts materials. A young man in white came to his hands with a roll of newspapers and said mysteriously: "The new martial artist assessment results have come out, you absolutely wouldn't have imagined... A guy was praised by Gai Kui for being 'used to be of great use'." Everyone was surprised and hurriedly went to compete for the roll of newspapers, "Just kidding?", "Which nonsense tabloid is this?", "Who is this?"

"Xin Lie is especially the most..." The young warriors who came to observe Bai Rixingyao's voice was low, their eyes were not blinking, and they almost used the brass telescope in front of them to identify the authenticity of the newspaper in their hands, but they knew that this was true!

In the martial arts performance venue, several young men and women wearing wheat ears totem costumes were practicing martial arts. The collision of spiritual energy burst out from the sword was intertwined and the crowd laughed and said, "You have made new progress, aren't you?", "It seems that breaking through the realm of martial artists is just around the corner!" At this time, several red-bellied sea eagles flew from the sky. Before they landed, several young men jumped down from the eagles' backs and walked towards them quickly, "New things, new things!"

"What are the things that the country bumpkins have to pay attention to? It's really a waste of time." "How can it be useful?" "You say it again!" "Why is he?" "Have you courageous and resourceful? He can't read well!"...

All kinds of voices rang in the Juyan Martial Arts Academy, surprised, puzzled, mocked, resentful, embarrassed, and unable to understand... These words all mention a person's name.

"Xin Lie.", "Xin Lie."...
Chapter completed!
