Chapter 60 Spiritual Power Test

"But please remember," Elder Wang changed the subject, "these weapons are only for testing and cannot be taken out."

His words were like a clear spring, extinguishing the fire of greed that was about to ignite in everyone's hearts, allowing everyone to calm down and focus on the upcoming trial.

Elder Wang spoke slowly and calmly. As soon as these words came out, the distracting thoughts that were floating in everyone's minds instantly disappeared.

Some people shook their heads slightly, even if they had some thoughts, they knew it was difficult to achieve.

They put aside all distracting thoughts, smiled bitterly, and slowly walked towards the room.

The other four disciples followed closely behind and entered the space filled with a wide variety of weapons.

Shangguan Jiannan, who was used to wielding a long sword, naturally picked up a sword.

The hilt of the sword feels slightly cool, but it does not feel strange when held in the hand. Instead, it fits perfectly. The sword body even emits a faint glow, which is so colorful and amazing.

"It is indeed a superior sword." Shangguan Jiannan's eyes lingered, praising it sincerely.

Afterwards, everyone selected a weapon that suited them. Among the five people, there were four men and one woman, and they had swords, spears, knives, and halberds. What was particularly eye-catching was that the female disciple chose a halberd.

Lu Jing, with a slender figure, wore a tight black dress, her ponytail was lightly tied up, her face was pretty, and she looked weak, but in fact, she was holding a long spear, looking heroic, which made Shangguan Jiannan and the other four people and Elder Wang look surprised.

He thought to himself that Lu Jing's strength should not be underestimated.

Recalling the first test, Lu Jing threw a punch, the air trembled, and the physical test monument turned purple. Her strength may have surpassed Shangguan Jiannan.

Looking at her body that seemed weak but actually contained great strength, Shangguan Jiannan's heart couldn't help but be moved and his expression changed slightly.

Just as everyone was feeling anxious, Elder Wang's slightly lazy voice sounded again: "The test is about to begin. Please stand two feet away, concentrate your spiritual power, and pour it into the weapon in your hand."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone concentrated and prepared to face the next challenge.

"They were instructed to release their power and directly strike the jade tablet used for testing. The top three will be promoted based on the depth of the marks on the tablet."

After Elder Wang briefly explained the rules, he remained silent. He just stood there quietly, glancing at the disciples around him.

Among the five people, the man holding the long sword took the first step forward.

He suddenly let out a deafening roar, his eyes fixed on the jade stele. As the spiritual energy in his body surged, a light green glow gradually appeared on the surface of the sword.

"Huff!" The long sword cut through the air, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound. A ray of emerald green sword light shot out from the tip of the sword, like an arrow from a bow, and hit the jade stele in the distance fiercely, causing circles of ripple-like vibrations.

A clear crack suddenly appeared on the jade stele, causing Elder Wang standing beside him to show a look of relief and nod slightly.

The man had a satisfied smile on his face, and then he quietly stepped aside, apparently quite pleased with his attack.

Next, it was the turn of the disciple wielding the spear.

The tip of his gun trembled slightly, weaving a bunch of gorgeous gun flowers in the air, and then the gun body shuttled back and forth like a spirit snake, causing the air to emit a buzzing sound.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the speeding spear.

The spear stopped halfway, and then with a "bang", a tiny ball of spiritual energy shot out like a bullet, passing through the void in an instant and hitting the jade stele heavily, causing another deafening roar.

At this moment, everyone's expressions became solemn, even the man with the long sword had a strange look on his face.

"Next one, Lv Jing." Elder Wang's voice was calm as he announced the name of the next tester.

Lu Jing held a halberd in his hand, with a faint light surrounding the halberd.

She did not rush to attack, but closed her eyes and concentrated, as if she was making some preparations.

In an instant, the aura around her began to fluctuate violently, as if the power that had been suppressed before now erupted completely, and the surroundings were filled with rich spiritual energy.

"Hah!" A crisp and delicate cry was heard, and Lu Jing suddenly opened her eyes. The long spear was like lightning, cutting through the sky, accompanied by bursts of whistling sounds, and instantly burst out with astonishing power.

Shangguan Jiannan and others even involuntarily took a few steps back to avoid his attack.

The sky was filled with shadows of halberds, blocking out the sun and the sky, as if they were going to cover the entire space.

The area within ten feet around Lu Jing was completely covered by the shadow of the halberd, like a cage.

In an instant, the wind stopped abruptly and the air seemed to freeze. She stood there quietly, her chest moving slightly, and the scene around her seemed to have not changed at all.

However, in a flash, something unexpected happened! A few seconds later, just as everyone was stunned, the jade disk in front of them suddenly erupted with a deafening roar, shocking the whole audience. All the disciples were shocked, and even Elder Wang's expression changed slightly.

"Next one, Shangguan Jiannan." The assessment was not over yet. As soon as Elder Wang finished speaking, Shangguan Jiannan set out on the journey without hesitation.

He held a long sword in his hand and walked towards the dividing line with steady steps.

Two meters away was neither out of reach nor within reach for him.

He stopped and looked into the distance, while at the same time gathering the dark shadowy mysterious energy from deep within his dantian. Waves of cold air surged out like surging rivers and poured into the sword, causing the sword to hum non-stop, as if it was about to break free from its restraints.

Shangguan Jiannan was fully focused, staring into the distance, taking a deep breath, and then swung his sword out. The sword was sharp and powerful, like a violent storm, sweeping around.

He exerted force with his feet and flew into the air, half a meter high. The sword in his hand danced like a dragon and he swung the sword with a light touch, which contained the power to destroy the world.

The distance of two meters was reached in a flash. Wherever the sword reached, the jade disk broke with a deafening sound.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the jade disk. They saw another hole the size of a fist appear next to the hole left by Lu Jing. Dust and smoke were rising. Its depth was similar to the former, and the damage was even more subtle.

This move undoubtedly shows that Shangguan Jiannan's strength is even greater than Lu Jing's.

Shangguan Jiannan's skills in controlling spiritual energy became more and more perfect.

"Wonderful, wonderful. Next." Elder Wang praised repeatedly, then spoke slowly, his voice steady and powerful.

Shangguan Jiannan stepped down with satisfaction, leaving the stage to the last disciple wielding a knife.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the halberd hit the ground heavily, and the ground paved with blue and black stone shook continuously, as if it was about to collapse.

Needless to say, he moved suddenly, and in an instant, dozens of sharp knife lights came out and bombarded the jade disk continuously with terrifying momentum.

"Bang, bang, bang!" A series of impact sounds came one after another. Although each knife light was not powerful individually, they were powerful in large numbers. Under the continuous attacks, a conspicuous large hole was actually chiseled out on the jade disk.

It was not until more than ten breaths later that the disciple looked relaxed. He let out a long breath, sheathed his sword, and quietly stepped aside.

"The assessment ends here, and the next step is to evaluate the results." Elder Wang walked steadily towards the jade disc, carefully scanning the marks left on it, and secretly evaluating it in his heart.

The jade disk is wide and the marks on it are clearly visible.

Elder Wang waved his sleeves lightly, and a ray of light flashed. All traces on the jade disk disappeared instantly. At the same time, his calm and firm voice echoed throughout the space: "Now, I will announce the result."
