"Zhang Ruochin glanced at Ji Shui and nodded lightly.He still had some good feelings for this uncle Ji, who had always stood in the blood mist and never revealed his true form, and he was also somewha...Yan Qingwu's greatest skill is swordsmanship. Previously, because Zhang Ruochin caught her off guard and cut her sword, she was unable to display the advantages of her swordsmanship.

This time around, she wasn't planning on going head-to-head with Zhang Ruochin. Instead, she intended to leverage her advantage in speed strategically.

Let's begin!

Zhang Ruchen carried the Shen Yuan ancient sword and with one move, he stood like a pine tree, still and silent, giving people a feeling of being unfathomable.

"Flying snow connects the heavens."

Ye Qingwu unleashed a sword technique of the Spirit Grade Upper Rank, intending to proactively test Zhang Ruochin and force him to expose his weaknesses.

As Yan Qingwu's sword danced closer and closer to Zhang Ruochin, it seemed as if Zhang Ruochin was about to be pierced through the heart by her blade.

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen swung his sword, as swift as thunder. His sword qi was like a waterfall, slashing toward Yan Qingwu's front.

The sword in her hand, too, was broken in two.

"It only takes one sword."

Zhang Ruochin didn't even glance at Yan Qingwu's ethereal form, sheathed the Abyss Ancient Sword, and walked out of the testing chamber.

Coupled with the sharpness of Shen Yuan's ancient sword, he killed Yan Qingwu, ranked number one hundred on the Earth List, with just a single strike.

>

Just now, that sword strike was truly amazing, almost reaching a state of flawless perfection.

"Sword heart clear, without a flaw."

"< >That old man sighed, “Indeed amazing. I never expected the Heavenly Demon Ridge to birth such a powerful young hero. If word reaches headquarters, even the high-ranking officials of the Academy and Money House would take notice of him.”

Lei Jing shook his head and said, "Let's not send the news back to headquarters first."

"Why" the old man asked.

Lei Jing smiled and said, "Zhang Ruochin is only at the Earthly Extremity realm now. To those half-saints and saints, he's just a child! Wanting to kill him is as easy as turning your palm over. (No pop-up ads) You have to know, the interior of Wushi Academy isn't a monolithic piece of iron. If news leaks out, it will only bring Zhang Ruochin disaster. So, the fewer people who know, the better."

The elder also nodded and said, "That is to say, concealing Zhang Ruochin's test scores Not sending the news back to headquarters."

Lei Jianfeng nodded and said, "It's not that I didn't pass it on, but that it wasn't passed on completely. If people knew that Zhang Ruochin was only at the Da Ji position of the Di Ji Realm, and he had killed the number one expert on the Earth List with just one sword, it would definitely cause a huge stir. It might even attract experts from the Demon Cult and the Black Market to come after him, no matter the cost."

"However, if Zhang Ruochin's cultivation level at the ultimate state of the Earthly Extremity was only comparable to the top 100 masters on the "Earth List," he could only win by a slight advantage. Although his talent is still very impressive, it has not yet reached the point where the Demon Cult and the Black Market would be afraid. At that time, even if there are experts who come to kill him, this old man can help him block them."

The old man said, "I understand! If Zhang Ruochin is in the Diji Jing Da Ji position, he can only contend with the top 100 masters on the Earth List. Then, even if he breaks through to the Great Perfection of Diji Jing, his strength will be at most that of the top 20 on the Earth List. Although he is still admired by heroes from all over the world, he has not yet reached the level of defying the heavens. After all, every few years, the top 20 on the Earth List will change."

It's just a difference in realms, but it's a concept of two levels.

Lei Jing and the old man had merely hidden Zhang Ruochin's true power and talent in another way.

Lei Jingdao: "Zhang Ruochin is after all just a prince from an inferior county. If he wants to reach higher realms and receive the best cultivation, he needs a large amount of resources. What I can help him with is limited, so he must demonstrate some talent and gain the attention of the academy. Only then can the academy allocate more resources to him. Help him go further."

The elder said: "Since that's the case, let's publicize it to the outside world that Zhang Ruochin is a martial arts cultivation base of Di Ji Jing Da Ji. At the same time, we will only report the results of the first and second rounds of practical combat tests to headquarters, and the results of the third round will be directly suppressed."

"I'll leave this to you, old man." Lei Jing bowed.

The elder smiled and said, "We all work for the Wushi Qianzhuang. I, too, don't want the Qianzhuang's genius to be killed before they can grow. I will now send today's test results and battle projections to the 地榜 spirit."

The old man before you is not a real human, but a split personality of the Earth List spirit.

As the test results are sent out, Lei Jing also bids farewell and leaves to meet Zhang Ruochin again.

Lei Jing saw Zhang Ruochin and was in a good mood. He smiled and said, "Zhang Ruochin, there's something I haven't discussed with you beforehand, and it might be a bit presumptuous."

Zhang Ruchen said, "What's the matter"

Lei Jing then told Zhang Ruochin about the decision he and the Earth List's spirit had just made.

After hearing this, Zhang Ruochin frowned deeply and said, “Has it been reported back to headquarters”

Lei Jing saw Zhang Ruochin's worried expression and smiled, "Don't be too nervous. Showing your talents is a good thing. It can attract the attention of the high-level officials of the Academy, giving you more cultivation resources. If this really leads to some powerful people wanting to kill you, this old man will definitely protect you with all his might."

Zhang Ruochin was certainly not afraid of being assassinated by a master. He was worried about something else.

During the second round of testing, Zhang Ruochen and Yan Qingwu talked, mentioning some things about Chi Yao's cultivation. Those were absolute secrets.

Zhang Ruochin wasn't afraid of the higher-ups at Wushi Academy knowing, after all, in their eyes, it was just the ramblings of a young man from the Earthly Realm, not worth taking seriously.

Zhang Ruochin was afraid that if the news reached Chi Yao's ears.

When she thought of the name "Zhang Ruochin" again, she was sure it wasn't a coincidence.

Once Chi Yao knew that he was still alive, with Chi Yao's current status and unrivaled cultivation, Zhang Ruochen would be dead even if he ran to the ends of the earth.

>

Zhang Ruochin let out a long sigh, trying his best to relax.

Why scare yourself After all, eight hundred years have passed. Who remembers a man named Zhang Ruochin from eight hundred years ago Perhaps Chi Yao has already forgotten me.

Ten years is enough to make people forget many things, many people. What's more, eight hundred years

Eight hundred years That's far too long!

Lei Jing saw that Zhang Ruichen's face was still not quite right, and asked, "Do you have any other worries"

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, "No!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

After some thought, Zhang Ruochin said, "Could I wait until the next ranking three months later and enter the 'Earth List' then"

"Do you want to postpone for three months"

Zhang Ruchen said, “Once the news that I entered the top 100 of the ‘Earth Ranking’ gets out, it will surely cause a huge uproar in Tianmo Ridge. By then, the people who want to kill me will probably be ten times more than they are now. So, I need three months to consolidate my current cultivation and strive to further improve my strength to cope with the even more brutal challenges ahead.”

Lei Jing's heart moved slightly, and he said, "That's good. Delaying it for three months is also a good thing for you. Leave this matter to me! Go back and cultivate with peace of mind, don't delay your martial arts."

After Zhang Ruochin returned to his cultivation secret realm, he was still a little uneasy. The words he had spoken in the testing chamber kept echoing in his mind. What if they reached Chi Yao's ears What kind of consequences would that have

Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged in the cultivation chamber, his whole body like a burning furnace, his skin turning crimson red, with beads of sweat dripping out, soaking his clothes.

"No, with my current state, cultivation is impossible without going through a demonic fire."

Zhang Ruochen's brow furrowed tightly, his face pale, even his lips were very dry, and his whole body's meridians protruded slightly, becoming somewhat ferocious.

Although Luoxinyáo is only a collateral member of the Luo clan, she is also a member of the Shengmen aristocratic family and naturally does not take the warriors of Tianmoling seriously.

She truly couldn't understand why Senior Sister Luo would value Zhang Ruochin so much, even inviting him to discuss martial arts with her.bout 300,000 li away, seventy li long.
