Dawn of a New Era

Fortunately, Chen Shouyi came a day early.

Because after two days, this hotel will be full of people who came from all over to take part in the martial arts apprenticeship examination.

Apart from going out to eat, Chen Shouyi didn't go out for the past two days, and kept practicing in his room with his head covered.

Shell girl enjoyed watching it all at once. From the moment she opened her eyes in the morning to the time she fell asleep at night, she never took her eyes off the screen. Chen Shouyi was a little worried that she would be nearsighted because of this.

But considering that her comfortable days would soon come to an end, Chen Shouyi just let her go.

As for the landlord's daughter, she seemed to be avoiding him deliberately, and he hadn't seen her in the past two days.

...

night!

Chen Shouyi closed his eyes, carefully feeling the strength of the muscles all over his body.

From time to time, he used his palm instead of the sword, cut through the air, and made a "呲" sound.

During this period of time, he has completely absorbed the physical exertion experience of the man in black.

Although there is still a big gap from the opponent's level of control over the muscles of the whole body, but it only involves a lot of sword styles that he has never touched before and some tips for flexible and flexible moves in battle, which will benefit him. a lot.

In these ten days of practice, he has gradually become proficient in these sword styles, and he has become able to send and receive like a heart.

So far, the only missing link in his swordsmanship has been completely made up.

The swordsmanship is only refined and sincere, it is indeed good, but there is no change.

In the past, when Chen Shouyi fought, he used all stabbing swords, and he only used stabbing swords, always going straight.

Although the actual combat effect is good, it is inevitable to appear a little stiff during the battle, unable to adapt, and often miss a lot of good opportunities.

For example, in fierce battles, sometimes a flick of the sword light can finish the job, but often because the sword style is not proficient and the body does not have this awareness, it will instinctively re-open the distance and perform another stab.

As a result, the efficiency in combat is not high, and at the same time, it increases its own risks.

How is his sword skill now? Chen Shouyi didn't know either, since the man in black, he hadn't fought in actual combat.

There is no suitable opponent for comparison.

However, the level of swordsmanship on the attribute panel has reached "proficient (18)", which has increased by three points during this period of time.

The further you go to the back of the skill, the more difficult it is to improve, and each point of improvement requires thousands or even tens of thousands of practice.

To be able to improve by three points in ten days is already considered a miracle.

...

Early the next morning, Chen Shouyi left the briefcase in the room and closed the door.

Then he knocked on the opposite door: "Go together, or do you go alone?"

Although the little girl seemed to be a little wary of her all the time, as a man, Chen Shouyi felt that he should have a little grace.

Soon the door opened.

"Together!" Zhou Xue said bluntly.

She had already packed it up, and had obviously been preparing for a long time.

She was wearing a set of off-white cotton sportswear, and her hair was still a little wet. She probably took a shower after warming up in the morning.

"It's only seven o'clock, go have breakfast first!" Chen Shouyi looked at the time and said, "It's time to go over and eat."

Walking out of the hotel, the two walked into a nearby breakfast shop.

...

"Why do you eat so much?" Zhou Xue, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't help asking when she saw Chen Shouyi's amazing appetite.

Seeing that the little girl had finished eating, Chen Shouyi finished the seventh steamed bun in two mouthfuls, took a sip of soy milk and said, "Eating a lot is a blessing!"

What a pig!

Zhou Xue muttered in her heart.

Chen Shouyi drank the soy milk in a few sips: "Waiter, pay the bill!"

"together?"

"Together!"

"A total of eighty-five."

Chen Shouyi took out a one hundred yuan card,

Then take the change.

Walking out of the breakfast shop, Zhou Xue took out her wallet and said seriously:

"You owed me three and a half dollars last time, and I'll give you another fifteen dollars."

"Forget it, I'll treat you this time." Chen Shouyi said.

"No, why are you guys always like this?"

It is impossible to meet such a serious person.

Chen Shouyi had no choice but to take her money.

About ten minutes later, the two walked to the Martial Arts Center and were immediately taken aback.

There was already a long line in the lobby of the registration office, which completely extended to the corridor.

At a glance, the entire team was about 100 meters long. It is estimated that there are five or six hundred people.

And it's not even eight o'clock.

After Chen Shouyi and Zhou Xue lined up at the back, within a few minutes, there were more than a dozen people behind them.

The number of people who signed up today is probably close to a thousand.

Can you really finish the exam today?

Chen Shouyi was a little suspicious.

Time gradually arrived at half past eight.

At this moment, more than twenty buses drove into the open space in front of the Martial Dao Center one after another.

Soon, a person jumped out of one of the cars and walked towards this side as quickly as if the ground was shrinking into an inch.

There was a commotion among the crowd.

Chen Shouyi also looked a little wary.

He didn't hide the slightest while walking, and he directly used the basic martial arts to move forward, each step spanning four or five meters.

He can also do this to this level, but compared to the other party's smoothness, ease and pleasing to the eye, he is still slightly inferior.

There is no doubt that this is obviously another warrior.

Soon, he walked up to the crowd and said in a loud voice, "Quiet me!"

Intimidated by the opponent's aura, the next moment, everyone shut their mouths, and the surroundings suddenly became quiet, and a needle could be heard.

There was a trace of satisfaction on the warrior's face:

"The announcement is now issued. Since there are too many candidates this time, we can't arrange it, so the location of the test has been temporarily changed. Now everyone is on the bus."

...

Chen Shouyi felt confused.

Besides the Martial Arts Assessment Center, where else can the assessment be conducted?

Could it be that he is going to a neighboring city, but there is no need to go all the way?

However, doubts or doubts, but they can only get on the bus with the crowd.

This time Zhou Xue didn't dislike him sitting next to him.

Perhaps compared to him, a more familiar person, the others are strangers.

The car drove away quickly.

After half an hour, it gradually left the urban area, and the more it drove, the more remote it became, and then it drove into a winding mountain road.

At this time, Chen Shouyi saw a warning sign outside the window:

"Military important place, idlers are not allowed to enter!"

Is this going to the military zone?

There was a commotion in the car, and the crowd talked a lot.

Soon there were soldiers guarding the front, and the bus stopped for a while, as if to confirm the formalities.

Not long after, the drive continued.

Military outposts are sporadically arranged in the mountains and forests in the distance, and there are many gun barrels and machine guns on them, which makes people daunting.

...

About two minutes later, the bus finally arrived at its destination.

Chen Shouyi followed the crowd down and looked around.

The surrounding peaks are bare, apparently artificially poured cement.

Not far away more than ten meters away is a huge cave, which is sixty to seventy meters wide, and the surface is reinforced with reinforced concrete.

At this time, several invigilators whispered to each other, and the person who had spoken before stood up and said loudly:

"Perhaps everyone has already guessed that there is a hidden space passage in front, and this assessment will be carried out in it.

Of course, this space passage has been explored many times, and it is quite safe, but we cannot guarantee that there is no danger. Based on the principle of voluntariness, if you do not want to enter, please stay where you are, but your behavior may affect your file. . "

There was an uproar among the crowd.

"I quit!" A middle-aged man stood up calmly. He already had a wife and children at his age, and he really didn't want to take risks.

"I quit too!"

Some people in the crowd withdrew one after another, but there were only a dozen or so people in total.

Chen Shouyi glanced at Zhou Xue, and found that her face was firm and she did not flinch in the slightest.

"Okay, come in with us now. As for the registration, you can go back to the Martial Arts Assessment Center to receive the certificate directly after you pass it. Those who withdraw will stay where they are, and someone will record your information when the time comes."

Chen Shouyi was still a little worried about his identity, but when he heard it now, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
