Devouring Sword God

Chapter 40 The Third Assessment
When Lin Jie heard Duan Xiu's words, his face under the disheveled long hair turned cold.

"Duan Xiu, the conflict between you and me is known to everyone in the Palace of the Seven Killing Stars, but if you casually involve this conflict on other people, it cannot be justified!"

"Hmph! I got involved indiscriminately? I still suspect that you let this kid kill my nephew Qi Shi!" Duan Xiu shouted angrily.

Lin Jie frowned, seeing that Duan Xiu didn't seem to be lying, he said to Yi Xiaoyao, "Nephew Xiaoyao, what's going on?"

Yi Xiaoyao's eyes moved slightly, and he thought to himself: Since killing Qi Shi is a foregone conclusion, the enemy cannot be avoided, but it will be sooner or later, I might as well be more straightforward, and Senior Lin Jie will help me.

"That's right! Qi Shi was killed by me. It's just that he wanted to die on his own, and I'll fulfill him." Yi Xiaoyao admitted.

Duan Xiu was already furious, but now hearing the words, he was even more furious.

"What a 'court death', I think you are courting death in front of me!"

After speaking, Duan Xiu's right palm surged with spiritual power, and suddenly slapped Yi Xiaoyao.

"Since you sent it to your door, I will fulfill you and avenge my nephew!"

Lin Jie snorted heavily, and also raised his palm to push Duan Xiu back.

"Duan Xiu, with me here, you dare to touch my people?"

Then, he asked Yi Xiaoyao: "Nephew Xiaoyao, tell me, how did Qi Shi seek death?"

Yi Xiaoyao looked at Duan Xiu coldly, and said: "Qi Shi wanted to kill me, but I was killed. It's that simple. Could it be that someone kills me, and I don't resist and let him kill?"

"I... all of us can testify."

Yun Qian also stood up and said, the other seven people around her smiled wryly, although they didn't want to offend Duan Xiu, they could only nod their heads in agreement at this point.

"You guys!" Duan Xiu glared at him angrily, causing the eight of them to turn pale with fright.

"What? Duan Xiu, what kind of skill is it to intimidate disciples? Qi Shi was killed because he was not as strong as others, and in this Seven Killing Star Palace, you don't have enough reason to touch my people." Lin Jie said with a smile.

Duan Xiu's face twitched a few times, he stared at Yi Xiaoyao like a poisonous snake, and said coldly:

"Very good! I don't believe that you can keep hiding behind Linjie's back!"

Yi Xiaoyao also looked at him with sharp eyes like a sharp sword, and said, "Qi Shi wanted to kill me, so he died, and now you want to kill me, then your ending will be the same as that of your nephew Qi Shi !"

Lin Jie was surprised for a moment when he heard this sentence.

Then, he smiled at Duan Xiu: "Duan Xiu, why did my nephew Xiaoyao hide behind my back? Even without me, you still can't touch him, because from now on, he will be an official disciple of the Palace of Seven Killing Stars. "

Duan Xiu's expression froze immediately. Under normal circumstances, it would be very easy for him to kill Yi Xiaoyao, but it would be different if he became an official disciple of the Seven Killing Star Palace.

In the Palace of the Seven Killing Stars, unless it is a special occasion, it is forbidden to kill each other at random.

"Official disciple? Are you kidding me? To become an official disciple of Seven Killing Star Hall, you must pass four assessments!"

Duan Xiu sneered: "Besides, now that the first two assessments have been held, he is no longer qualified. If he wants to join the Seven Killing Star Palace, he can only wait for the next assessment to start."

Lin Jie smiled and said, "As long as he is capable enough and I have him as a guarantor, he can directly participate in the third assessment."

"Hmph, it seems that you have confidence in this kid?"

Duan Xiu didn't continue to object, as if he had thought of some way to deal with Yi Xiaoyao.

Lin Jie took a look at Yi Xiaoyao, this is the young man his master fancy, of course he has confidence in him.

"I would like to participate in the assessment."

Yi Xiaoyao also responded to Lin Jie with a reassuring look, and said.

"Hey, since that's the case, then I will tell you the rules of the third assessment."

Duan Xiu said to Yi Xiaoyao with a gloomy gaze: "All participants, step into the Earth Star Forest to hunt and kill monsters to practice, and those who come out alive will rank the number of monster pills harvested, and the best will survive!"

"How long is the training time?" Yi Xiaoyao asked.

"Fifteen days." Duan Xiuyou said quietly: "If you are afraid, then give up."

Yi Xiaoyao said indifferently: "I understand, you can leave too, I don't want to see you."

"I also don't want to see you alive." Duan Xiu turned and left with cold eyes.

Lin Jie looked at Duan Xiu's back, frowned and said to Yi Xiaoyao: "Nephew Xiaoyao, Duan Xiu will definitely cause you a lot of trouble in the future, you have to be prepared."

"I see, Senior Linjie."

Yi Xiaoyao's heart is like a mirror.

"Even if there is no Duan Xiu, you can't take it lightly. The monsters are raging in the Earth Star Forest, which is very dangerous."

Lin Jie continued to instruct: "And don't underestimate the other disciples participating in the assessment. The Seven Killing Star Palace has extremely strict requirements for accepting disciples. They are all selected geniuses. The worst is the inheritor of the seventh-rank immortal soul. The strongest Those inheritors of the ninth-rank immortal soul have even reached the foundation establishment stage."

"Your cultivation at the Qi Condensation Ninth Level, although you have the ability to kill Qi Shi, can only be regarded as the upper-middle among that group of geniuses."

Yi Xiaoyao continued to nod in agreement, and he sighed in his heart: I didn't expect that the standard for accepting disciples in the Seven Killing Star Hall was higher than that of Huayun Sect, no wonder it could compete with Huayun Sect.

However, Yi Xiaoyao is not comparable to these so-called geniuses.

Gradually, Yi Xiaoyao began to look forward to the next assessment.

……

In the distance, a young man stood in front of Duan Xiu, whose face was somewhat similar to that of the dead Qi Shi.

"Uncle, did you call me?" Qi Yue said.

Duan Xiu looked gloomy, narrowed his eyes and said, "The third assessment is about to begin."

"Yeah, at this time, Qi Shi has not passed the second test. With his strength, he shouldn't be so slow, right?"

As he said that, Qi Yue curled his lips and said, "If it wasn't for the fact that the difference in the cultivation bases of the groups in the second assessment wasn't too large, I and a few friends at the foundation level would be able to take Qi Shi along and help him complete the assessment easily."

"You don't have to wait for Qi Shi, he has already been killed."

Duan Xiu said in a low voice: "The person who killed your brother is called Yi Xiaoyao, and this person will also participate in the third assessment with you. You know what to do."

Qi Yue's expression froze, and then turned into fury.

"Kill my brother? I want him dead!"

Duan Xiu looked deeply at Qi Yue, whose eyes were bloodshot, and said coldly, "If you fail to kill that Yi Xiaoyao in the third test, it will be very difficult to take revenge afterwards."

"Definitely kill!!!" Qi Yue roared like a wild beast.

……

Half a day later, the second assessment of the Seven Killing Star Palace was terminated, and the third assessment was about to begin.

All the disciples who passed the second assessment had already gathered in one place, waiting to set off.

Yi Xiaoyao counted roughly, and there were hundreds of talented youngsters from various places in the Great Shang Dynasty participating in the third assessment.

"Brother Yi, will you come with us?"

Yun Qian and the others came over and extended an invitation to Yi Xiaoyao.

Yi Xiaoyao declined with a faint smile: "I think it's better to forget it, someone is after me, and it will be very dangerous for you to be with me."

Then, Yi Xiaoyao's eyes turned cold, and he looked at Qi Yue, who was staring at him with resentment in the crowd.
