This fox fairy is too inhuman

Chapter 409 Trial (Third update)
"Eh!"

Zhao Sanzhuang, who was sweating profusely, felt his knees weaken and he fell heavily to the ground.

thump.

Fortunately, there were not many dead branches in the dense forest. He was not stabbed by the sharp branches this time, but instead lay down in a soft weed.

Smelling the aroma of green grass coming from the tip of his nose, coupled with the cool wind under the shade of the trees, Zhao Sanzhuang, who had long been exhausted to the extreme, felt that all the strength in his body was drained away.

His eyelids began to feel heavy, heavier than the thirty-kilogram hammer in his hand... Wait, hammer! ! ?

By the way, I'm still in the trial... I can't sleep!

Get up!
Zhao Sanzhuang suddenly woke up. He lost all sleep in an instant, turned over and sat up.

Sure enough, when he woke up, he found that the others had walked more than ten meters, and no one stopped to help him.

This is normal. We are all competitors, so it would be good if we don’t add insult to injury.

There are many ways to join the Sword-making Cottage. Some are recommended by experts, some are accepted by the disciples of the Sword-making Cottage after discovering their talents, and some are selected to enter the Sword-making Cottage once every ten years...

But for some ordinary mortals who have no connections at home and whose talents are not that outstanding, there is another way.

That is to first join the affiliated sect under the Zhujian House, obtain the most basic cultivation method, and then advance step by step, and finally be selected from the affiliated sect to enter the Sword House. This is the most feasible method. .

The team that Zhao Sanzhuang belongs to is undergoing the entrance test of the sect's iron smelting workshop under Zhujianlu.

This is already the third and final level. Each of them has to carry the thirty-three-pound hammer in twos and threes and keep walking in the mountains until the last ten people are left.

At this moment, the team, including Zhao Sanzhuang, only has twelve people left in total.

Just one step away!

Zhao Sanzhuang got up from the ground, took a deep breath, took a few quick steps, and stumbled to the end of the team.

The last man saw that Zhao Sanzhuang actually followed him again, with some regret in his eyes.

Competitors, naturally, there can be one less one.

But this guy who is as strong as an ox can actually get up again after falling down. What a pity!

But he didn't say anything, he didn't have the strength anymore, and now he was holding on with just one breath, fearing that he would be discouraged if he opened his mouth.

The last person can't protect himself, but the people in front still have some strength left.

The man walking second at the moment looked back at Zhao Sanzhuang, feeling a little frightened.

Zhao Sanzhuang was walking in front of him just before he fell, and his huge body almost hit him!
As a near-victim, he was the last person who wanted to see Zhao Sanzhuang continue competing, so he hesitated and said loudly to the messenger leading the way:
"Master Zhang! Does it still count if you fall down and get up again?"

Zhao Sanzhuang stared when he heard this, strode forward, and rushed to the front of the team in two or three steps, and said angrily:

"Niu Tiedan! What do you mean!"

Although Zhao Sanzhuang was angry, he did not dare to touch the opponent with his big hands, which would make him truly disqualified.

Niu Tiedan also knew this, so he was confident in snitching.

Although the two are from the same hometown, they don't have any friendship from the same hometown. The Niu family has always been at odds with the Zhao family since the last two generations, and it can be regarded as a feud.

In addition, Niu Tiedan also had a small thought in mind. Zhao Sanzhuang's qualifications were stronger than his own. If they entered the sect together, the resources he would obtain would definitely be much better than his own.

And if he is not here, then his share will fall on his head!
Due to old and new grudges, Niu Tiedan would rather break up and disqualify Zhao Sanzhuang from participating in the competition.

But what made Niu Tiedan a little disappointed was that Master Zhang, who had always been taciturn, just glanced back after hearing this, then turned back and said calmly:
"Mind yourself."

Niu Tiedan was choked, but he didn't dare to refute, lowered his head and thanked him.

Zhao Sanzhuang smiled and bowed gratefully to Mr. Zhang:
"Hey, thank you sir!"

Then, Master Zhang spoke. "You should also take care of yourself."

Zhao Sanzhuang: "Cough, cough, cough!"

"Seeing that your qualifications are acceptable and you didn't put down the hammer even though you were unconscious, I will consider you to have passed the test this time."

Zhao Sanzhuang: "Uh...yes."

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he held the hammer that seemed to weigh more than a thousand pounds with his other hand. Thinking of the suffering he had endured in the past few months, he couldn't help but mutter to the person in front:
"Damn, I just want to make a sword, but it's so damn difficult!"

Ah.

Hearing his complaint, the leader sneered.

"Forging a sword? Hehe, you are just like this bear, and you still want to forge a sword?"

Before the trial began, none of them would have thought that the person walking at the front among their group would actually be a woman.

Although her appearance is not outstanding, her hands and feet are big, and she behaves like a rough peasant woman, there is a faint aura surging in her body.

Zhao Sanzhuang curled his lips when he heard this and continued to say angrily:

"Otherwise? I joined the Sword Making Cottage just to be able to forge swords with my own hands one day, right?"

After hearing this, the woman stopped laughing and nodded silently:
"Well, so do I."

Which of the people in the dozen or so cities and towns near Zhujianlu has not thought that one day he could become a disciple of Zhujianlu and become one of his disciples?
This is the imprint left by Zhujianlu on this land for thousands of years, and it has been deeply imprinted in the hearts of the people living in this land.

Complaints were complaints, but the trial still had to continue, and the team fell into silence again.

Not long after, the two people walking at the end of the team fell one after another. At this point, the final trial that lasted for three days and three nights finally came to an end.

After Mr. Zhang stopped, the ten people who made it to the end let out a long breath.

"Huh...ha! Haha, it's finally over!"

They didn't care about their image at all, and lay heavily on the ground in a twisted state, their chests rising and falling like bellows.

Only the woman's condition was better, but she still sat on the ground and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

So tired, really so tired.

This torture feels like it has drained their souls dry.

But soon, they realized something was wrong.

Master Zhang has yet to announce the end of the trial!

Ok?
There was no smile on Mr. Zhang's face, he stared at the north with a serious face and shouted angrily:
"Who's there!?"

"come out!"

someone! ?
The exhausted people wanted to get up, but found that their legs were sore and weak at the moment, and they had no strength at all.

Then, a gentle voice like the spring breeze came, causing the strength they had finally mustered in their bodies to dissipate.

"Fellow Taoists, don't be nervous."

A young man with snow-white hair walked out of the forest, smiled at everyone and saluted, and said gently:

"I was just passing by and wanted to ask you for directions."

　Asking for a monthly ticket——
