C439 Entering the Hall
Li Nanhai and Ji Sier's expressions changed. They were forced to retreat as they were struck by the majestic and powerful aura in front of them.
Just when the two of them thought that the Dark-Winged Water Dragon had charged out, amidst the willful splashes of waves, a young and fierce figure flew up into the air, exuding a strong and mighty aura from head to toe.
"Junior Brother Chu Hen?"
Li Nanhai's eyes lit up with a look of surprise.
Ji Sier was also surprised, and her expression changed.
Chu Hen immediately flashed in front of the two of them.
"I'm sorry, something happened to me that made you all wait for a long time. Where are the others?"
Before, when Chu Hen went down, there were a dozen or so inner disciples with Thousand Feather Sect, including Zheng Rong and the others. Now, other than Li Nanhai and Ji Sier, all of them had left.
Li Nanhai laughed, and said: "They ran a long time ago, they all thought you couldn't catch up with the Dark-Winged Water Dragon, and couldn't get it back. "When the time comes, they will most likely come to snatch them away, so I might as well take the chance and run far away."
Chu Hen smiled and shook his head. If he wanted to snatch their Thunder Cherry Herb, he would have already done so.
"How is it? "Junior Brother Chu Hen, are you hurt?"
Chu Hen nodded. This Li Nanhai was indeed a good person. If it was anyone else, the first thing they would have to ask was whether they had obtained the mission's result, not whether the other party was injured or not.
Just from this point, Chu Hen would treat the person in front of him as a friend.
"This is for you!"
With a flash of white light, six stalks of Primrose Grass with a faint silver glow appeared in Chu Hen's palm.
"Thunder Cherry Herb?"
The scene in front of their eyes lit up again. At the same time, Li Nanhai secretly exclaimed in admiration. As expected of the person who defeated the top three disciples in Meng Hong's hall, Chu Hen was Chu Hen, and he was indeed powerful.
"Take it. Three plants per person!" Chu Hen said.
Ji Sier was pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect herself to have a share.
However, Li Nanhai seemed to be hesitant and did not have the intention of taking the Thunder Cherry Herb over immediately.
Chu Hen saw through the other party's thoughts, and immediately said, "I am just helping you enter the hall, even if you temporarily become a hall disciple, there will still be an assessment in the next few years. If you can't complete the assessment, you will still be eliminated. "Therefore, you all will have to decide how far you can go in the end."
"But, this isn't the result of a mission based on our own strength after all."
Li Nanhai still hesitated.
Chu Hen laughed. "In fact, good popularity is also a reflection of one's strength. What do you think?"
But seeing that Chu Hen had already said this much, Li Nanhai did not hesitate anymore. He cautiously took the Thunder Cherry Herb from Chu Hen and said, "I understand, thank you Junior Brother Chu Hen."
"Thank you, Junior Brother Chu Hen." Ji Sier added.
"You're too polite. Let's go!"
"Alright!"
The two of them nodded and immediately left with Chu Hen.
About an hour later.
Chu Hen, Li Nanhai, and Ji Sier arrived at the third checkpoint.
This was a pavilion built on top of a mountain.
This pavilion was called 'Wang Chuan Pavilion'. Judging from the luster of the brick and tile pillars, it was an ancient building.
The Wangchuan Pavilion was built in a magnificent fashion. There were two main pavilions and seven or eight secondary pavilions.
Standing on top of the River Gazing Pavilion and gazing into the distance, the mountain and river of Mount Mang Jungle was actually as beautiful as a painting, causing one to feel relaxed and happy. However, from time to time, the roars of Demonic Beast would come from a distant mountain stream, giving off a faint feeling of palpitation …
"It's Li Nanhai and the others."
"And Chu Hen, he's actually not hurt at all?"
"I wonder if you have obtained the Thunder Cherry Herb?"
"Who knows!"
Inside a main pavilion to the south of the Wangchuan Pavilion sat a group of inner court disciples with Thousand Feather Sect.
On the faces of these people, not a single one of them showed any disappointment or unwillingness. It was very obvious that they were all people who had failed the examination to become a disciple. They were just sitting here, waiting for the Transfer Array to return to their Thousand Feather Sect.
In the northern pavilion, there were only a few people.
However, their faces were brimming with laughter.
The person in charge of the transition station was a middle-aged man who appeared to be in his forties. He had a normal appearance and a normal figure, but his appearance gave off a sense of gentleness. Beside him was a stone table, but there were no mission scrolls on it, just a set of Golden Book s.
"Junior Brother Chu Hen, let's go and register!"
Li Nanhai said.
Chu Hen nodded and agreed.
Seeing Chu Hen and the other two come over, everyone in the Wang Chuan Pavilion cast a surprised look at them.
It had to be known that before this, the disciples who had completed their missions were coming one after the other, and now that three people had come at the same time, it couldn't help but be somewhat surprising.
Especially Li Nanhai and Ji Sier.
The talent of these two people in Thousand Feather Sect was not particularly outstanding, and logically speaking, they should not have reached the standard of a hall disciple for the time being.
However, when the crowd saw Chu Hen who was standing next to the other person, they might be able to guess a bit of the reason.
"Give me your mission scrolls!"
The middle-aged man said gently.
The three of them did not hesitate and handed the scrolls over one after the other.
"Three Thunder Cherry Herb!"
"Three Thunder Cherry Herb? Three Thunder Cherry Herb s still … "
The man was slightly surprised. The tasks for these three people were actually the same.
"Have you all completed the mission?"
Chu Hen handed the three Thunder Cherry Herb over first, followed by Li Nanhai and Ji Sier.
When they saw this situation, the people on the south side of the main pavilion all revealed expressions of envy. Especially the group of people who had been on the banks of the Blackwater River. They were both envious and disdainful at the same time …
"Elder Mu, the two of them definitely did not rely on their own abilities to obtain the Thunder Cherry Herb." A young man with jealousy said.
"That's right, this test obviously doesn't count."
"Their Thunder Cherry Herb were definitely given to them by Chu Hen."
A few people who failed and couldn't stand to see others in a good state stood up one after another to expose Li Nanhai and Ji Sier's background.
In a split-second, everyone in the front, back, and left of the crowd cast a mocking gaze at him.
Li Nanhai and Ji Sier were both extremely embarrassed, especially for their daughter, Ji Sier. They really wanted to find a hole and hide in it.
However, the expression of Elder Mu, who was in charge of this round of examination, did not change at all. He looked at Chu Hen quietly and said: "Did you get all the Thunder Cherry Herb by yourself?"
"Yes sir!"
Chu Hen answered calmly.
Elder Mu nodded his head, his eyebrows raised in approval, "Name?"
"Chu Hen!"
Then, Elder Mu picked up the Golden Book on the table and spread it out. He found Chu Hen's name and released a bit of primeval essence from his fingertip. Chu Hen's name was then released with a golden luster.
"And you? What's your name?"
Elder Mu looked at Li Nanhai and his son.
The two of them were stunned. They weren't disqualified?
Those who were jealous began shouting again, indicating that they shouldn't let the two pass.
Elder Mu's eyes turned cold as a powerful aura swept out, suppressing the noisy crowd.
"Interpersonal relationships are also a manifestation of one's strength. If you have the ability, you can also have others help you complete the mission. You do not even have the most basic of human relationships, so what right do you have to mock others here? "
With just a few short sentences, everyone obediently shut their mouths.
Li Nanhai and Ji Sier's awkwardness also disappeared in a flash. Their eyes were filled with joy.
Subsequently, Elder Mu lit up the names of the two people one after another.
"Congratulations to all of you for becoming our sect's honorable disciples!"
"Great!"
Ji Sier was overjoyed. Her smile was like a flower.
Li Nanhai was equally excited. The wish that had been weighing down on his heart was finally fulfilled.
"Next up, you two have two choices. One is to return to the Sect, and the other is to participate in the palace disciple ranking competition." Elder Mu looked at the three of them and continued to explain.
"If you choose the former, all of you will always be honorable disciples before the next examination. Moreover, if he chose the latter, it was very likely that he would be disqualified and lose his identity as a disciple. "You should consider this carefully."
Chu Hen smiled and answered without any hesitation, "I choose the latter!"
"Participate in the competition for the ranking of hall disciples." Elder Mu nodded.
Li Nanhai and Ji Sier looked at each other, and after a brief moment of thought, the former replied, "I choose to return to Sect."
"I also want to return to the Sect!"
The two of them were very clear of their abilities. Even completing the previous mission was all thanks to Chu Hen's help.
The competition for the ranking of the disciples could be said to be the most important thing in the entire exam. The two of them didn't want to rely on Chu Hen anymore. If they were to rely on their own strength, rather than risking being eliminated, they might as well return to their Sect and diligently cultivate for a year, waiting for next year to participate in the examination.
Elder Mu was not surprised by this, he slightly raised his hand and said: "The two of you wait at the side, after a while, we will activate the Transfer Array and send you back to Sect."
"Yes sir!"
Li Nanhai replied softly. Then he turned to Chu Hen and said, "Junior Brother Chu Hen, you be careful."
"I will."
Then, Elder Mu took out a piece of Jade Stick like item and handed it to Chu Hen.
The Jade Stick was about fifteen centimeters wide, and was as wide as a finger. It was unknown what material was used to make it, but it felt cool to the touch. On the surface of the Jade Stick, there was a number.
"Eighty-one!"
Chu Hen's eyebrows twitched as he looked at the numbers on it in surprise.
"Ranked eighty-first among the disciples?"
"That's right!"
"Yes." Elder Mu affirmed and his tone became a bit more serious, "In front of you, there are eighty hall disciples, and sixty of them are veteran hall disciples. Twenty of them are the same as you, new buddies."
Twenty newcomers?
Chu Hen was slightly surprised. This probability was extremely low.
It should be known that the number of inner sect disciples and disciples under the Thousand Feather Sect definitely exceeded ten thousand. Out of ten thousand disciples, even including Li Nanhai and Ji Sier, who didn't participate in the last round of the examination, there were still less than thirty who passed.
"The last round's assessment rules are very simple. They are to take the Jade Stick from the hands of others."
"Oh?"
"In the end, the highest number of Jade Stick you have is your result."
"So that's how it is!" Chu Hen's eyes became serious as he said in a deep voice, "In other words, if I were to snatch the Jade Stick with number one in my hands, I would be the leader of the disciples?"
The moment he said this, the crowd all cast strange gazes at him.
Chu Hen's tone was just too arrogant. From the beginning to the end, in the history of Thousand Feather Sect, no one had ever dared to boast like this.
But then again, since Chu Hen was able to defeat Meng Hong, who was ranked third, with a single illusion technique, it meant that the other party could win third place without any problems. They would fight their way from the rookies to the final round, taking third place. Only one person in the history of Thousand Feather Sect had ever accomplished such a feat.
That is the direct disciple of Sect Master, and the head of the five core disciples, 'Young Master Yuan', Wu Yuan.
Everyone was terrified!
If that was the case, Chu Hen might even become the second Wu Yuan. At that time, the pressure on the other core disciples would also come.
Of course, this was just a conjecture on everyone's part. The final round of the examination could have any sudden mishaps.
It could only be said that Chu Hen possessed the ability to compete for the top three positions. However, what was the result of that? No one knew!
"Any other questions?" Elder Mu said.
"Where is the final rendezvous?"
"Yaotian Altar!"
