The man in black reacted quickly, knowing that it was too late to dodge, so he simply confronted Lin Xiao head-on with a punch.

Crack--

A bone-breaking sound was heard, and the man in black screamed. Just as his body was about to fall backwards, Lin Xiao suddenly stepped forward, grabbed his neck, and killed him with a click.

There were still two men in black left.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Xiao killed two companions instantly, which made the remaining two men in black full of fear.

"The intelligence is wrong, retreat!"

The two men in black hurriedly fled outside the house.

Lin Xiao suddenly spread his palm, and a long sword condensed out. He suddenly grasped it, and then slashed forward directly!

Swish!

The sound of sword energy cutting through the air.

Then, the two men in black suddenly stopped, and then two heads fell to the ground.

"We should leave one alive and ask who sent someone to assassinate me." Lin Xiao frowned slightly, but then he thought that these killers were well-trained, organized and premeditated. Even if he forced them to ask, they probably wouldn't reveal any information, and might even commit suicide by taking poison.

The battle just now was quite loud, and it was estimated that it had attracted the attention of the people in the inn, because Lin Xiao heard footsteps downstairs.

Lin Xiao quickly packed up his things, jumped out of the window directly, jumped onto the street, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.

Lin Xiao couldn't be sure who sent those killers. It might be Nangong Jie, or it might be Liu Zihao.

However, Lin Xiao thought about it. If it was Nangong Jie, he knew his own strength very well, and that old fox was very tight, and would definitely not send only these killers with average strength.

Then there is only one possibility left, that is Liu Zihao.

"What a damn thing!" Lin Xiao gritted his teeth slightly. This guy escaped from his hands last time. He didn't go to find him, but he came to trouble him several times. The next time he sees him, he must kill him!

After escaping from the inn, the streets were dark. Lin Xiao had nowhere to go, so he climbed onto a roof to sleep.

Before he knew it, a red sun rose from the east, the morning glow filled the sky, and a ray of light fell on Lin Xiao's face. Lin Xiao slowly opened his eyes.

After stretching, Lin Xiao stood up and waved his fist facing the morning sun.

Target, Sword-asking Academy, set off!

On a towering mountain range, it stretches for hundreds of miles. A magnificent academy is located here, which is Sword-asking Academy.

The mountains are shrouded in clouds and mist, and the surrounding ancient trees are towering, which makes the huge academy even more mysterious.

From the main entrance of the academy, there is a staircase nearly a thousand meters long, with a total of 999 steps, leading directly to the main entrance of the academy.

On the other side, there is a small path, the road is smooth, leading directly to the side entrance of the academy.

It was still dawn, but many people had gathered at the bottom of the stairs, waiting for the assessment.

When Lin Xiao came over, he could no longer squeeze in. The stairs were full of people. At a glance, there were huge crowds of people and noise.

It is estimated that there are at least 20,000 people.

"There are really many people coming for the assessment, and the competition will definitely be fierce." Lin Xiao said in a deep voice.

Those who can come to participate in the assessment have all been recognized by the instructors of the Sword-asking Academy and hold the scroll of the academy in their hands.

Among these 20,000 people, they are selected by the instructors of the Sword-asking Academy from the thirteen county cities and thousands of large and small cities in the Tianxing Empire. Those who can be favored by the instructors are all the pride of the city, and Lin Xiao is just one of them.

Looking around, all of them were young men under the age of 20, with steady auras and firm eyes. Lin Xiao even felt that the auras of several people were not weaker than his.

"The pressure is a bit great," Lin Xiao touched his nose, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "But it's interesting this way."

Somewhere in the crowd, a pair of eyes were looking at Lin Xiao coldly.

"Damn, this guy is not dead!" Liu Sen frowned, clenched his fists, and his face was full of unwillingness.

On the side, Liu Zihao was also surprised and said, "Cousin, didn't you send the killer from the Blood Clothes Building? Why didn't you succeed?"

"Who knows," Liu Sen spat, staring at Lin Xiao fiercely, "But since he is not dead, I have to do it myself. Keep an eye on him. When we go to the Demonic Forest for the trial later, we brothers will definitely be able to kill him together."

After killing him, the blue crystal card will be mine, Liu Sen smiled coldly and thought.

At this moment, suddenly, the gate of Wenjian Academy opened, and then several figures walked out.

The scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes fell on those people.

There were five people in total, four men and one woman, all of whom looked about thirty years old.

"It's the deans of the outer courtyard of Wenjian Academy." Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.

The five people tiptoed and their figures flew into the air, then flew down and came to the bottom of the stairs.

The five people wore the same black uniform, with a small golden sword engraved on their left chest, and patterns of different colors painted on their shoulders.

Lin Xiao had also heard of the five deans of the outer courtyard.

Wenjian Academy is divided into the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard, and the outer courtyard is divided into five courtyards, gold, wood, water, fire and earth, representing the five elements respectively. Some of the shoulders of these five people are engraved with golden hammers, some are lotus, and some are flames, representing the symbols of each branch.

The man in the middle of the five people, with a strong figure and a sharp gaze, should be the dean of the King Kong Academy, Dugu Hong, and at the same time, he is also the chief dean of the outer courtyard.
