Chapter 368: Star Sword Pavilion
Xiao Ye closed his eyes and felt it. The place with the strongest sword energy in the entire Sword Domain was probably the center of the Sword Domain.
That place, according to Xiao Ye's understanding, is not that easy to get to.
In the entire holy land of the Sword Domain, it would be difficult to go anywhere without extremely strong swordsmanship and background.
Xiao Ye opened his eyes.
I can't go to the Sword Domain Center for the time being, but there is a good place here.
Star Sword Pavilion!
This area is the sphere of influence of the Star Sword Territory.
Tens of millions of territories are within the scope of Xingchen Jiange.
The master of the Star Sword Pavilion is said to have reached the realm of the Sword God.
These were all told to Xiao Ye by the system. As for how it knew, Xiao Ye couldn't tell.
"In order to prevent the sword world from being exposed, the host needs to hide everything. In this world, anything that has nothing to do with swordsmanship cannot be used blatantly."
If it cannot be used blatantly, then it can be used secretly?
Xiao Ye was thoughtful.
"The host needs an identity, worships in the Star Sword Pavilion, and allows the Sword Realm to absorb the sword energy and evolve. This is a long process. I hope the host can persevere!"
"But if the host has a good place to go, you don't have to take my suggestion."
The corner of Xiao Ye's mouth twitched. If he couldn't expose other powers and wanted to get out of the sphere of influence of Xingchen Jiange, he would have to wait until the end of the year of the monkey.
It seems there is only one choice.
Xiao Ye sighed, not knowing whether the system chose this place intentionally.
Coming here was not Xiao Ye's choice, but the system's choice.
But now that we're here, it doesn't matter anymore.
The aura and power fluctuations on his body have been hidden by the system and Xiao Ye, and outsiders can no longer see the clues. Xiao Ye now looks like a frail young man.
With a sigh, Xiao Ye headed towards the mountain.
Today happens to be the time for Xingchen Jiange to recruit disciples.
…
Sword Domain Void World.
The gate of Xingchen Jiange Mountain.
"Brother, is there no other way?" Outside the gate of Xingchen Jiange, Xiao Ye grabbed the young sword cultivator in front of him and whispered.
Hearing his words, the sword cultivator frowned, looked around, and said coldly: "In the path of sword cultivation, talent is particularly important. If your talent is not good, even if you accept you, you won't get far. Instead of doing this, It’s better not to accept it.”
"Look at them, just like you, they have no talent. Although the sect has accepted them, what's the use?"
Xiao Ye turned his head and saw the handyman disciples in front of the mountain gate. Although these people had swordsmanship skills, they were not high, and some had not even reached the entry level.
Their talents are not good enough and they cannot become formal disciples, so they can only become handyman disciples. And starting from handyman disciples, they also have the opportunity to become formal disciples.
However, a few years ago, the conditions for recruiting handyman disciples were also raised. The minimum talent for swordsmanship was level seven. Unfortunately for Xiao Ye, his talent for swordsmanship was very low and he did not even reach the threshold.
Swordsmanship talent ranges from high to low, from first grade to ninth grade, and Xiao Ye is among the ninth grade.
So he was ruthlessly eliminated by Xingchen Jiange.
The talent in swordsmanship is not good, which means that he has basically no chance of practicing swordsmanship. Xiao Ye does not say that he must learn swordsmanship, and he does not have that need. However, to evolve in the world of swords, he needs to absorb things like sword energy. This thing is basically mastered. It is in the hands of various kendo sects and difficult to obtain outside.
But Xiao Ye can't even get in now.
This is a bit embarrassing.
"Is there really no other way?" Xiao Ye asked unwillingly.
"No more." The swordsman young man said expressionlessly: "With your talent, it would be better to be a normal person if you embark on the path of sword cultivation. At least you can keep yourself safe for the rest of your life."
After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and left, obviously not wanting to talk to Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye looked at the mountain steps of Xingchen Jiange. As the sun set, many people left lonely. They were obviously rejected.
This year's changes in the recruitment rules of Xingchen Jiange were something they had not expected.
This is the world of swordsmanship, cruel and real. Xiao Ye actually understands the methods of Xingchen Jiange very well. If you really don’t have a strong talent for swordsmanship, wouldn’t it be better to just be an ordinary person and embark on the path of sword cultivation? It means that life and death have been put aside.
The path of sword cultivation is not easy.
Xiao Ye sighed and sat on the bluestone steps, thinking about how to stay in the Star Sword Pavilion. He did not really want to join the Star Sword Pavilion, but planned to help the Sword Realm complete its evolution here.
"I didn't expect your talent in swordsmanship to be so poor." The Book of Stars floated out of the void, not caring about the surrounding environment. For it, as long as it doesn't want others to see it, unless someone is really strong, there is no way to do it. Be aware of its presence.
Xiao Ye shrugged. In fact, his swordsmanship talent was not bad. He could feel this. However, because the sea of consciousness was hidden by the system, the detected talent was extremely poor.
Xiao Ye didn't tell anyone else about this because it involved the system.
Regarding the existence of the system, neither Xiao Ye nor the system itself wanted other beings to know about it.
"Brother, are you planning to join our Star Sword Pavilion?"
Just when Xiao Ye was deep in thought, a figure appeared next to Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye looked up and found that he was a disciple of Xingchen Jiange, but his appearance was a bit hard to describe.
Xiao Ye is not a member of the Appearance Association, so he naturally doesn't care about other people's appearance.
It's just that this man's appearance is really better than Pan An's. I don't know why God gave him such a shocking appearance.
"Does this senior brother have connections?" Xiao Ye suppressed the thought of laughing in his heart and asked.
"Of course, it's just..." The disciple of Xingchen Jiange rubbed his hands, his meaning was obvious.
Xiao Ye twitched the corner of his mouth, took out a low-grade kendo stone from his arms and handed it over.
The power system of each world is different, the power absorbed is also different, and the currency used is naturally different. Xiao Ye was fully prepared when he came.
Steal from the rich and give to the poor, rob others of their wealth and give to your own poverty.
So he doesn't lack this thing at all now.
"That's it?"
Unexpectedly, "Pan An" looked disdainful: "If this is your sincerity, I think you should go back early."
Xiao Ye twitched the corner of his mouth again, took out five low-grade kendo stones from his arms, and whispered: "This is all my belongings. If it doesn't work, I can only think of other ways."
As he said this, Xiao Ye handed over the six low-grade kendo stones in his hand, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. If this guy was still so greedy, he would have to use other means.
Although you can't expose yourself unless absolutely necessary, you won't expose anything when dealing with this little shrimp.
"Pan An" looked Xiao Ye up and down, and finally reluctantly put the things away, and said without interest: "Follow me."
"There is a shortage of sword washers at the sword washing pool. There is no requirement for talent. I will lead you there right away. With my relationship, they will not make things difficult for you no matter how low your talent is."
Sword washing pool?
Xiao Ye frowned, this name didn't sound like a good place.
Sword washer?
What kind of profession is this?
Why do I feel so similar to people in that kind of place?
However, Xiao Ye didn't care after thinking about it. His purpose was to stay in Xingchen Jiange. As for the identity of staying, there was actually nothing to care about.
"Pan An" took Xiao Ye on a remote path, away from the main hall.
This made Xiao Ye have some doubts in his heart, and he wondered whether this guy was lying to him.
After walking along the winding path for several hours, Wang Peng led Xiao Ye to a huge hot spring.
This time the hot spring is very huge, located in a valley, and you can feel the rising water vapor from a distance.
A long way away, Wang Peng stopped.
The two of them had been walking for so long, and Xiao Ye naturally knew his name and his identity as an outer disciple.
"This is the sword-washing pool. I won't go in. There is a previous sword-washing person at the entrance of the spring. If you go to him to hand over things, he will tell you exactly how to do it."
Wang Peng said, and took out a low-grade kendo stone from his arms with some pain: "Give him a low-grade kendo stone, maybe he can tell you more."
Xiao Ye took the piece of inferior product over in confusion: "What did you say?"
Wang Teng did not explain. He waved his hand and said to Xiao Ye: "Go ahead. After ten years of doing this job, you can become an entry-level disciple of Xingchen Jiange."
After saying that, he stopped talking to Xiao Ye and turned around to leave. He didn't need to give that low-grade kendo stone to Xiao Ye, but he thought Xiao Ye was a little pitiful, so he reminded him.
The Sword Washing Pond was not a good place, but he did not lie. If he persisted here for ten years and found the next sword washer, no matter how talented he was, he would still be accepted by the Star Sword Pavilion.
It's a pity that over the years, very few have been able to complete it. They either died inside or simply escaped.
Xiao Ye looked at Wang Peng's leaving figure and threw away the low-grade kendo stone in his hand.
"Although people are a little stupid, they are not bad in nature. With this kind of personality, survival is enough. If you want to go higher and further, it may be difficult."
Putting the kendo stone away, Xiao Ye looked at the so-called sword washing pool.
When you come here, the system prompts that this place is more suitable for the evolution of the Sword Realm than other places.
"Whether it's the air or other things here, they contain endless sword energy. If ordinary people stay here for a long time, their bodies will be washed away by the sword energy all the time."
"In this case, there are only two endings, either if you persist, your swordsmanship will be greatly improved, or if you cannot persist, your body will be destroyed and become disabled."
"I'm afraid that's also the horror of this place."
Xiao Ye was thoughtful, then stepped into the sword washing pool.
If this place fits, then this is it.
