Fox Demon: God rewards hard work, I will eventually master martial arts and become a god

The result of this trial was extremely unexpected.

That is, the number of people who succeeded in the trial this time far exceeded that of the past.

Some people were even surprised that they had never encountered any evil spirits in there.

From the trepidation on the first day, to the slight pressure on the second day, to the suspicion, and finally to the boredom of life.

Some people even thought that the extremely dangerous trial that was rumored before was just a lie made up by the Demon Slayer Corps to deceive them, but if they thought about it, if it was really the case, then why did countless people describe these things in such a detailed way?

Moreover, they have been promoted to members of the Demon Slayer Corps, and sooner or later they will have to fight against demons. The trial was originally meant to allow them to face demons for the first time, and there was no need to create such a thing.

Later, some people met each other, and as the news gradually spread, these reservists came to a surprising conclusion.

That was on the first day, when someone was frantically hunting ghosts.

It is very likely that the man killed all the ghosts.

This conclusion shocked countless people. After all, they had not encountered any ghosts since the first day, which meant that the man had cleared out all the ghosts from the first day.

Some people even couldn't believe it at first, but after more people confirmed it, the truth of the matter was revealed.

Some were shocked, some were unwilling, and some were glad...

But no matter what, what everyone is more curious about is who that person is.

However, many people did not see what that person looked like. Most of the time, they saw a figure and a fox mask that could ward off evil. Well, it was a rather distinctive fox mask.

Only a limited number of people described it vividly, and also said that the man killed the ghosts with one blow.

When this incident was spread again, it naturally shocked people even more, causing these people to spontaneously look for the person wearing the evil-repelling fox mask.

Unfortunately, they searched for a long time but couldn't find it, so they could only wait anxiously.

At this time, Tanjiro Kamado was obsessed with another thing.

After killing all the ghosts, Lin Yu naturally passed the new skills to Tanjiro Kamado.

And this technique is exactly the one that teaches Tanjiro Kamado how to use his emotional power.

Emotional power is different from internal power, but they can be integrated with each other. It can be said to be a very good power for practitioners. In addition, Lin Yu has already planted the seeds of emotional power deep in Tanjiro Kamado's soul. Now Tanjiro Kamado can naturally achieve twice the result with half the effort in practicing emotional power.

However, Lin Yu also told Tanjiro Kamado that emotional power is ultimately only auxiliary, and internal strength is the foundation.

Tanjiro Kamado kept it in mind, but after coming into contact with the power of emotion, he felt its power.

The first function of emotional power is naturally to help Tanjiro Kamado cultivate his internal strength.

The second function is to be incorporated into the internal force to increase the intensity of the attack.

The third function is to imitate mental power to a certain extent and use it to detect the surrounding situation.

This kind of detection is countless times more detailed than the five senses. Even without turning around, Tanjiro Kamado can clearly detect the movement of a bug thirty inches underground five meters behind him.

This new world naturally made Tanjiro Kamado feel new and unfamiliar.

These days, Tanjiro Kamado has been getting used to this new world.

At this moment, he was standing there with his eyes closed. Suddenly, he raised his hand and drew his sword. A cold light flashed, and everything returned to normal.

But if someone looked carefully, they would notice that a mosquito had one of its thin wings cut off in the air one meter away. The mosquito didn't even feel what happened, but its body was unstable. After falling for a while, it fluttered up again.

Tanjiro Kamado opened his eyes, with a flash of surprise in them. His biggest shortcoming before was his ability to control himself, but now with the perception of emotional power, his ability to control himself was much stronger than before.

"Master, this emotional power is indeed powerful. With its existence, my strength will definitely rise to a higher level!"

Tanjiro Kamado said confidently.

"Emotional power is slightly higher than your current internal power in terms of energy level, so it is naturally much stronger. But as I said before, emotional power will affect your emotions to a certain extent. If you are not strong enough, you will be controlled by emotional power and become a slave to your emotions. Therefore, improving your internal power is the most important thing."

Lin Yu reminded.

"I understand, Master. I will keep this in mind."

Tanjiro Kamado nodded seriously. From the moment Lin Yu reminded him the second time, he knew the importance of this matter.

"Okay, the trial is almost over, let's get ready to leave."

Lin Yu said.

"Is it over yet?"

Tanjiro Kamado was stunned for a moment. He had been so obsessed with the use of emotional power these days that he was completely unaware of the passage of time.

He calculated the time and found that the final time of the trial was about to pass, so he hurried out of Zither Mountain.

Soon, he saw the familiar blooming wisteria flowers. Walking along the wisteria path, he found that many of the wisteria petals had been trampled on.

After walking for a while, he indeed saw many figures.

Coincidentally, the first person he saw was the one who was rescued by the ghost.

And when that person saw Tanjiro Kamado, he was stunned.

Tanjiro Kamado felt a little strange, thinking that even if the other party was not grateful to him for saving his life, he should not behave like this.

At this moment, the man suddenly screamed:
"It's him, it's him!"

This scream immediately attracted everyone's attention.

People gathered and all came in front of Tanjiro Kamado, looking at him curiously.

"Everyone, what is this for?"

Tanjiro Kamado was not used to being stared at by so many people and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Everyone was speechless for a moment. It was clearly Tanjiro Kamado who had done such a big thing, but he himself had no awareness at all. How could they not be speechless?

At this moment, a deep voice sounded, along with a noisy voice:

"That's right, you bastard, it's you who stole my prey!"

The crowd was forcibly separated, and Inosuke Hashibira, wearing a strange wild boar mask, came angrily to Tanjiro Kamado.

He had been thinking about the fact that the prey he was chasing before was killed by Tanjiro Kamado. He was very angry and looked for evil spirits everywhere but couldn't find any. Finally, he came out and found out that all the evil spirits were killed by Tanjiro Kamado, who was also the one who had killed his prey before.

The anger in his heart naturally grew to an incomparable level.

Noticing that Tanjiro Kamado came out, he naturally wanted to settle the score with him.

"Ah, you are the one..."

Tanjiro Kamado opened his mouth and wanted to say that the other person was strange, but he felt it was a bit rude, so he didn't say it.

"Yes, it's me, so let's fight it out right away!"

Inosuke Hashibira held up his two serrated swords, snorted, and waved them continuously.

"Ah, sorry, I don't fight with my colleagues, but I'm sorry for stealing your prey."

Tanjiro Kamado's face was full of apologies. He was in a hurry before and indeed did not notice that the evil ghost was being chased by someone. "Damn it, I don't want your apology, but a good fight."

When Inosuke Hashibira heard Tanjiro Kamado's apology, he felt even more unhappy.

The knife in his hand was swung more frequently.

It almost fell on Tanjiro Kamado's face several times, but Tanjiro Kamado remained motionless and steadfast.

After all, there was no reason for him to fight the person in front of him.

However, this unwavering performance made Kanao Kocho, who was quietly observing Tanjiro Kamado in the crowd, slightly narrow her eyes.

It is instinctive to retreat when facing a dangerous blade, and several times the blade was only a few inches away from Tanjiro Kamado's face, which also proves that Tanjiro Kamado has a very good control over the situation.

This indirectly proves that Tanjiro Kamado's excellence is not just about his speed.

“Maybe he can really get rid of all the evil spirits in Wisteria Mountain in a short period of time.”

Before, Butterfly Kanao was still a little skeptical, but now she believes it a little more.

After making a fuss for a while, Inosuke Hashibira found that Tanjiro Kamado was not moved at all, so he calmed down.

He snorted coldly, turned and left.

The others were still shocked by Inosuke Hashibira's commotion at Tanjiro Kamado's strength, but seeing that Tanjiro Kamado didn't seem to want to contact other people, they could only swallow what they wanted to say.

At this moment, crisp applause sounded in the air.

Everyone's attention was drawn to it.

But he saw the white-haired girl in kimono standing gracefully on the stage.

"Although there were some special circumstances during the trial, congratulations to everyone for passing the trial. Next, I would like to ask if there are any who do not want to be a member of the Demon Slayer Corps anymore, please come and report to me."

The white-haired girl's voice was cool and peaceful, which calmed the restless crowd down involuntarily.

Tanjiro Kamado couldn't help but feel a little confused. The trial was obviously for selecting members of the Demon Slayer Corps, so why did the white-haired girl ask if anyone was unwilling?

What surprised him even more was that many people came on stage and expressed that they did not want to be members of the Demon Slayer Corps anymore.

"After the battle, these people found that they were not suitable for life-and-death battles."

Lin Yu's voice sounded from the bottom of Tanjiro Kamado's heart.

"Master, what do you mean?"

"Think back, these people have appeared more or less when you were killing evil spirits. Are those evil spirits really that strong?"

Lin Yu asked.

"No, some of the demons are even weaker than the ordinary humans I killed before."

Tanjiro Kamado shook his head slightly.

"This is natural. After all, they were just ordinary humans. They were caught here before they even ate a few people. But because there is no food here, the weak ghosts died. The ones who stayed are at least cruel evil ghosts. As long as they are not beheaded, they will not die. They are naturally fearless and will kill them when fighting these people. In a life-and-death crisis, not everyone can use their full strength, and these people are destined to be unsuitable for fighting evil ghosts."

Lin Yu explained.

Tanjiro Kamado suddenly realized that this trial was not testing one's strength, but rather everyone's mentality when facing life and death.

"Although I have intended to train you before, you will most likely encounter a powerful opponent in the future, and you will be in a real life-and-death crisis. So you must remember that since it is a life-and-death battle, don't think about being afraid."

Lin Yu warned.

"But don't we still have you, Master..."

Tanjiro Kamado said, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Yu:
“There will be a time when I will leave too.”

"leave……"

Tanjiro Kamado was stunned for a moment. He had never thought about this question before.

Just as he was about to say something, Tanjiro Kamado noticed a yellow-haired boy running happily away from the white-haired girl and came in front of Tanjiro Kamado.

He grasped Tanjiro Kamado's hands, his gratitude overflowing with tears:
"Thank you very much for helping me before!"

"I encountered an evil ghost before and I didn't know what to do. If it weren't for you, I would have been eaten by the ghost."

"Wow, fighting with ghosts is really scary. Thank you, benefactor!"

Agatsuma Zenitsu kept shaking Tanjiro Kamado's hand, making Tanjiro Kamado a little confused:

"It's just a small matter, a small matter, you don't need to care about it."

Tanjiro Kamado came to his senses and said quickly.

"For me, this is a huge matter. Although I will no longer fight in the Demon Slayer Corps, I will definitely find a chance to repay you, my benefactor. My name is Zenitsu Agatsuma, and what about you, my benefactor?"

"Tanjiro Kamado..."

"It turns out to be Mr. Tanjiro Kamado. Please take care of him. Please take care of him."

Agatsuma Zenitsu said repeatedly, then said goodbye to Tanjiro Kamado and left.

Tanjiro Kamado was in a daze throughout the whole process, until the very end, when he could only say that there are really all kinds of people in the world.

At this time, almost everyone around had left, with only one third of the people remaining where they were.

The white-haired girl didn't look surprised at all when so many people left. Instead, she continued to talk about some precautions and asked everyone to test the "Orangutan Crimson Iron Sand" and "Orangutan Crimson Ore" to see what color they would appear when they touched them. Then she notified everyone that they could go back and wait for news.

When Tanjiro Kamado was about to return to Mount Sagiri, he was stopped by the white-haired girl.

"Excuse me, what's the matter?"

Tanjiro Kamado was a little confused.

"Hello Mr. Kamado, my name is Ubuyashiki Hikaru, and I am the person in charge of this trial."

The white-haired girl bowed slightly.

"Um, hello."

Tanjiro Kamado also bowed, remembering that there should have been a boy with a similar appearance standing next to the girl that day.

"Mr. Kamado was very active in this trial, and his record was very impressive. He killed all the demons on the first day alone, which is absolutely unprecedented."

Ubuyashiki Hikaru continued.

"It just happens to have some strength."

Tanjiro Kamado felt a little embarrassed by the praise and said quickly.

"No, I just told the truth. I called Mr. Kamado just to inform you of your excellent performance in the trial. I will report it to the lord later. There is a high possibility that Mr. Kamado's arrangements will be delayed. Please be patient."

Ubuyashiki Hikaru bowed slightly and said. (End of this chapter)
