Chapter 7233 7231-
Lin Yi wanted to eavesdrop a little, but he didn't expect elder Xu to have a way to prevent sound from spreading. Even Lin Yi's primordial spirit couldn't break through it, which surprised him.
What was even more surprising was that after elder Xu heard AI fan's words, he muttered to himself for a while before nodding and saying loudly,"Lu Butong still has the strength to fight, so it's not a complete defeat. However, there was a misunderstanding. The opponent has already left the field, so I hereby announce that their battle is considered a draw! We'll advance to the next round of assessment together!"
The crowd was in an uproar. There was such a thing? Isn't this favoritism a little too obvious?
The most important thing was that after these two rounds of battles, only 18 people had been eliminated. The remaining people still exceeded the number by a few, and it seemed that they would continue? If he continued, what would the rules say?
Elder Xu looked around and frowned.""Silence!"
In the face of the elders of the sword spring sect, those who were making a ruckus did not have the courage to go against them. When they heard elder Xu's words, they all shut up obediently. However, there was some unconvinced look in their eyes.
Lin Yi was curious-what did AI fan say to elder Xu to make him side with Lu Butong?
After all, Lu Butong's defeat was certain. If he insisted that he still had the strength to fight, it would really anger the public. Did he really think that everyone was blind and couldn't see it?
As Lu Butong's opponent, the young Governor only pouted and did not express any objection.
Since he could advance himself, Lu Butong's death did not matter to him. To offend elder Xu over such a small matter? He wouldn't do it even if his head had been caught in a door, right?
"The number of people in the first round is a little too many. However, we have limited time today. I will make the decision to send a few more people to the next round!"
Elder Xu probably felt that there was no benefit in making a big deal out of this, so he simply waved his hand and let the remaining people pass the first round of assessment. In any case, the number of extra people was only in the single digits, not too many!
Those who were initially angry but did not dare to speak up immediately smiled. If the battle continued, although there were not many places left to be eliminated, they might be the ones to be eliminated!
Now that they could safely enter the second round, it could be said that everyone was happy. Who would still keep their eyes on such a small matter?
"Those who have been eliminated, please gather outside. There will be someone to arrange your food and lodging. After the assessment is over, all those who have been eliminated will be sent back together!"
Elder Xu casually waved his hand and one of the disciples beside him went over to gather the unlucky ones who had been eliminated and brought them back to the place where they had landed.
The remaining people then remembered that the number of disciples recruited by the sword spring sect was not high. Although they had entered the second round of assessment, they would still face the danger of being eliminated.
"Alright, you all can follow me!"
Elder Xu led the rest of the people to a large hall at the side. From the outside, it didn't seem obvious, but after entering, they realized that it was extremely large and spacious inside. The height of the hall was about ten meters from the roof, and the length and width of the hall were over two hundred meters!
The hall was not empty. On the contrary, there were all kinds of body-tempering equipment in such a large space. They could train a warrior's body in all aspects and could also be used as tools to test the quality of a warrior.
Lin Yi guessed that it was for testing-they were here for the test, after all, not just for training. Things turned out to be the exact opposite of what he thought!
"Listen up, this is the test before the second round of assessment. It's not a real assessment. However, if anyone doesn't complete it seriously, I can also directly kick you out!"
Elder Xu scanned the crowd and pointed out three fingers.""Three days! All of you must do your best to complete the three days of training here. Each time you complete all the equipment, you will get one point. The more points you get, the greater your advantage in the second round of assessment! As there are a lot of people in the first round, I will eliminate some people according to the different scores in this three-day Test. You must be careful!"
With that said, the weaker ones among the remaining people started to panic. If they had the lowest score, they would definitely be eliminated!
What should he do?
Lin Yi's eyebrows twitched, a little surprised. His physical strength was at the bottom among these people, and his combat strength had nothing to do with his body. This test seemed to be targeting him!
But Lin Yi didn't think much of it-his body was too weak, and this was a good chance to train. As for passing the test, he didn't have to worry about it with his actual combat strength!
"You can start now!"
After elder Xu finished his announcement, he turned around and left the hall, leaving behind only one disciple to be the invigilator.
Of course, there was nothing to cheat in this test. It was all voluntary. If you didn't want to play, you could just sit and lie down at the side. If you didn't have any points after three days, you would be eliminated.
Keeping this disciple was only for the sake of calculating the points more conveniently. They would not care about the actions of the tester!
Other than Lin Yi, everyone who came to the sword spring sect worked hard to earn a recommendation. Who would want to be eliminated?
Therefore, as soon as elder Xu left, they immediately began the test. Fortunately, the place was large enough, there were enough equipment, and the items were also complicated, so there was no need for people to have a place to test.
Three days passed by in a flash. Almost everyone went to challenge their own limits again and again without rest. As expected, the sword spring sect did not care about them at all. They did not even send them food once.
These martial artists wouldn't starve to death if they didn't eat for a few days. However, they were all body-tempering martial artists. They had used up a large amount of their physical energy and had no food to replenish themselves. After three days, they were basically half-dead from exhaustion!
Lin Yi's points weren't much, but they weren't little either-he'd probably be in the 40s or 50s. He'd entered the test with the mentality of training himself, as long as he didn't get eliminated. The three days felt pretty good.
"You people are still too weak in my eyes! It's only been three days, and he's already almost dead!"
After elder Xu came over, he immediately ridiculed and ridiculed them with a disdainful look on his face. However, no one could talk back. Firstly, it was because of elder Xu's status. Secondly, they really didn't have the strength to do so!
"The seven with the least points will be eliminated. The rest of you, follow me!"
Elder Xu took a look at the invigilator's record and casually eliminated seven people. Then, he led the others and left the hall!
After walking for a short while, they arrived at another Hall. There was a lot of food placed inside, and the steam was rising, giving off a fragrant aroma.
Everyone, who had not eaten for a few days, suddenly had green eyes. Each of them stared at the food in front of them like hungry wolves.
