Chapter 28 Outer Sect Competition

[After all, although you have achieved the perfect level of the Marrow Tempering Realm, you are still a little older, now more than 19 years old. In terms of age, you are at an absolute disadvantage. ]

[However, you soon felt relieved, thinking that no matter how high the requirements of Burning Flame Valley for accepting disciples are, they would not reject a warrior who has successfully tempered his marrow and comprehended the perfect Fiery Blade Force. ]

[You walked along the mountain ladder to the square on the top of the mountain and began to accept the assessment of Burning Flame Valley. There are three assessments in Burning Flame Valley. ]

[First, look at your physique, family background, age, and what level of cultivation is considered qualified. When the elders of Burning Flame Valley knew that you had reached the perfect level of the Marrow Tempering Realm, they did not ask about your age, but announced that you had passed with a bright look in their eyes. ]

[Seeing this, those genius young men were also full of envy. ]

[Seeing this, you think you may have underestimated the value of Marrow Tempering. The reason why Zhang Chu's attitude changed so much last time and he firmly believed in your identity as a disciple of Burning Flame Valley was probably because of Marrow Tempering. ]

[After your observation, you found that the assessment of Burning Flame Valley is really strict. There are more than 6,000 young people who want to join Burning Flame Valley. Only less than 1,000 people passed the first level, which is less than one in sixty. ]

[All those who passed the assessment are amazing. ]

[The second level tests actual combat ability. You need to fight with the monsters captured by Burning Flame Valley according to your own cultivation. Those who perform well can pass the test. If you don’t have cultivation, you need to pass other tests. ]

[In this level, many talented young people were scared and could not play more than 20% of their strength and were ruthlessly eliminated. ]

[You performed very well in this level. You killed a second-level monster with one knife, which made the master and elders of Burning Flame Valley nod their heads. ]

[In the end, more than 500 people passed the second level, and more than 400 were ruthlessly eliminated. ]

[The third level tests willpower. Burning Flame Valley activated the formation, trapping you in the illusion. You experienced all kinds of pain, but your martial arts will was very firm and you survived. However, when you experienced the temptation of beauty, you were a little shaken and almost didn't survive. 】

【Fortunately, your martial arts will was firm, and you overcame the difficulties and passed the test by ruthlessly killing the beautiful woman in the illusion. 】

【Finally, you passed the test of willpower. Although your score was not excellent, it was also above average. 】

【There were only about 300 people who passed all three levels of the test. 】

【Finally, 300 people including you became new disciples of Burning Flame Valley. Some people curiously asked why there was no comprehension test. 】

【In response, the master of Burning Flame Valley said that the comprehension test was actually included in the actual combat test. 】

【This made everyone understand. That's right, if you don't have good comprehension and don't master various skills well, your actual combat ability will not be that strong. 】

【Next, it's the stage of recruiting disciples. Burning Flame Valley has a total of four peaks. The four peaks are the Instrument Peak, the Pill Peak, the Talisman Peak, and the Battle Peak. The paths they take are respectively refining instruments, refining pills, talismans, and fighting. ]

[Although you are interested in refining instruments, refining pills, and the way of talismans, you know very well that you have no talent in those areas, so you choose to take the pure battle route. ]

[Finally, you joined the Battle Peak and became an outer disciple of the Battle Peak. You were accepted as a disciple by a female elder named Qin Lan of the Battle Peak. ]

[After becoming a disciple of the Burning Flame Valley, you learned some of the rules of the Burning Flame Valley and began to think about the Burning Flame Valley Outer Disciple Competition. ]

[Although you can now receive a yellow-level upper-grade technique based on your cultivation and try to break through to the Qi Condensation Realm, you have heard that the rewards for the Burning Flame Valley Outer Disciple Competition are very generous. If you can get the rewards of the Outer Disciple Competition, there will be many benefits. ]

[And this Burning Flame Valley Outer Disciple Competition is usually held on May 1st. In other words, you only need to wait for another five months. Five months, you can still wait. ]

[Because Fenyan Valley stipulates that if a disciple reaches the state of tempering marrow, he can choose two yellow-level top-grade martial arts to practice. According to the rules of Fenyan Valley, you went to the martial arts pavilion of Fenyan Valley and chose two martial arts that suit you. ]

[Although it is said that the martial arts that have entered the grade need to reach the state of gathering qi before they can exert their power, because the circulation routes of internal qi or true qi are different for different martial arts, but if you master its moves first, it is also much stronger than those martial arts that are common outside. ]

[Finally, after your careful selection, you chose the yellow-level top-grade body movement · Linghe Step and the yellow-level top-grade martial arts · Iron Shirt. ]

[Among them, Iron Shirt is a hard skill similar to Iron Skin Kung Fu, which needs to be supplemented with medicine for practice. However, Iron Shirt is of a higher grade and has a higher upper limit. ]

[When you practice to the minor success, you can ignore the attacks of warriors below the Qi Condensation Realm. When you practice to the major success, you can ignore the attacks of warriors below the seventh level of the Qi Condensation Realm. When you practice to the perfect state, even ordinary warriors in the Condensation Realm will find it difficult to break their defense. ]

[Although you have not achieved any results in practicing the Iron Skin Skill in previous simulations, you are still obsessed with this kind of skills. After all, once you have mastered it, there are really too many benefits. ]

[After you have chosen the skills, you began to practice silently and not care about worldly affairs. ]

[Five months have passed, and you have practiced the Spirit Crane Step well. Unfortunately, because you have no internal energy, it is impossible to completely control it.

[As for the progress of the Iron Cloth Shirt, it is better than the Spirit Crane Step and has reached the minor success state. ]

【However, the price of training the Iron Shirt to a minor level is that you endured five months of pain in the body training, and all the silver you had on you was consumed. You, once again, became a pauper. 】

【On May 1, 667 of the Great Chu Calendar, the outer sect competition of the Burning Flame Valley began, and you chose to sign up. You found that there were really many geniuses among the outer sect disciples of the Burning Flame Valley. The perfection of the internal organs was nothing at all, and there were even hundreds of disciples in the marrow tempering realm. 】

【Although, compared to the nearly a thousand outer sect disciples of the Burning Flame Valley, there were only a hundred disciples in the marrow tempering realm, which was enough to show how difficult marrow tempering was, but it still made you amazed and feel the pressure. 】

【You know very well that you are not a genius. If it is based on your true talent, your talent should not be enough to join the Burning Flame Valley, and it is impossible for you to temper your marrow. 】

【You can successfully temper your marrow entirely because of the blood essence marrow tempering method, which is somewhat biased towards the magic way of marrow tempering. 】

【In the first round, you only faced an ordinary disciple of Lianzang realm, and you defeated him with one move. 】

【In the second round, you were lucky and faced a disciple of Lianzang realm again, and you still defeated him with one move. 】
