Mortal Bones

Chapter 33: Sword Testing Pavilion, Sword Testing Boy of Xuandan Palace

"Knife-sharpening boy?"

Xu Taiping didn't pay too much attention to Li Xueqing's failure. On the contrary, Xu Taiping was particularly concerned about the word "knife-sharpening boy" spoken by the elder.

After seeing Xu Taiping's doubts, Dao Gui suddenly took a step forward, pointed to the high platform in the center of the lobby, and then said:

"The training for the Xuandan Palace disciples on the sixth floor of Wukui Building is to let the disciples go on stage to challenge those humanoid puppets. Only when they win can they pass the challenge."

Xu Taiping took a closer look and found that four lifelike humanoid puppets were standing on the four corners of the high platform.

The sword ghost continued:

"When I came to inquire last time, I heard two elders discussing that these four puppets were obtained by the second head of Xuandan Palace from the ruins of Tianwai Star Palace. They are mysterious and extraordinary."

"It is said that you only need to spar with it once, and the puppet will be able to deduce all the Kung Fu you have learned and use it for yourself."

"Among all the techniques, these four puppets are particularly good at sword techniques."

"When you try swordsmanship with them, they will not only be able to fully demonstrate your swordsmanship, but they will also be able to outshine others."

"So the second head of Xuandan Palace, after getting them, mainly used them to test the sword."

"It is precisely because of this that Xuandan Palace has created a swordsman who is famous in both the upper and higher realms."

After hearing the introduction of Dao Gui, Xu Taiping was immediately curious and said:

"These puppets seem to be suitable for you, Senior Sword Demon!"

The sword ghost said helplessly:

"When I heard about this, I had already borrowed the body of a Xuandan Palace disciple to try one or two swords with him. It turned out that these four puppets were just four imitations."

"If I hadn't collected some of my strength, I would probably have chopped off one of them with a knife."

The sword ghost immediately added:

"But even though it's an imitation, it might be just right for you right now."

Xu Taiping nodded silently.

At this moment, he finally understood why Senior Sword Demon was so sure that the Sword Testing Pavilion on the sixth floor of Wukui Building could help him improve his sword skills to the extreme.

Because if according to the introduction just now by the senior sword ghost, if he still wants to defeat the four puppets named Grinding Boy after deducing his sword skills, he must use his extreme skills One knife.

This is a disguised form of forcing him into a desperate situation.

While Dao Gui was talking to Xu Taiping, Bei Guoxiao, after hesitating for a long time, still stepped forward and asked Li Xueqing:

"Junior Sister Xueqing, are you okay?"

Li Xueqing glanced at Bei Guoxiao with complicated eyes, then shook her head expressionlessly and said:

"No problem."

Jiang Ping's younger sister Jiang Yan, on the other hand, added:

"Stop crying like a cat and pretending to be compassionate. I think you really want to see Senior Sister Xue Qing fail in the challenge and then stay at the outer gate with you, right?"

After Bei Guoxiao heard this, his face turned cold and he said:

"I'm talking to Junior Sister Xue Qing, when did it become your turn for a wild girl to interrupt? Chenglong Tianjiang's family is so powerful recently!"

When talking to Jiang Yan, Bei Guoxiao seemed to have changed. His eyes were full of coldness and hostility.

Fu Liu, who was checking Li Xueqing's injuries, immediately reached out and patted Jiang Yan's shoulder after hearing Bei Guoxiao's words, and said in a gentle tone:

"Jiang Yan, don't engage in this useless verbal dispute with an outsider."

Hearing the word "outsider", Bei Guoxiao looked at Fu Liu and suddenly revealed a strong murderous intention uncontrollably.

After Fu Liu sensed Bei Guoxiao's murderous intent, not only did he remain calm, but he looked at Bei Guoxiao's gaze with a smile and said:

"Master Beiguo, Junior Sister Xueqing will continue to challenge the knife-sharpening boy soon. If you want to watch the battle, please watch silently from the side and don't disturb her again."

He and Li Xueqing had been preparing to challenge the knife-sharpening boy on the sixth floor, so they didn't notice what was going on downstairs.

Bei Guoxiao snorted coldly and said:

"I'm not here to watch the battle today."

When Fu Liu and Li Xueqing heard this, they both looked puzzled.

At this time, a Xuandan Palace disciple who had followed Bei Guoxiao to the sixth floor suddenly laughed loudly and said without hesitation:

"Senior Brother Fu Liu, I'm afraid you don't know yet, right? Senior Brother Beiguo has won the fourth floor title in a row, and now, like Senior Sister Xue Qing, he is also going to challenge the knife-sharpening boy!"

Hearing this, Fu Liu and Li Xueqing's eyes showed surprise.

Jiang Yan even sneered and said:

"If Bei Guo Xiao can win the qualification to challenge the knife-sharpening boy, wouldn't I, Jiang Yan, have already climbed to the top of Wu Kui Tower?"

At this moment, his brother Jiang Ping also arrived on the sixth floor.

So Jiang Yan immediately shouted and asked:

"Brother, some people say that Bei Guoxiao has won the qualification to challenge the knife-sharpening boy. Do you think it's funny or not?"

When Jiang Ping heard this, he first glanced at Bei Guoxiao with complicated eyes, then frowned and looked at Jiang Yan and Fu Liu and Li Xueqing behind her and said:

"It's true."

Under the horrified looks of the three people, Jiang Ping continued:

"Not only did he pass the challenge, but he also won the first place on the second to fifth floors."

Although Jiang Ping was extremely disgusted with Bei Guoxiao, Bei Guoxiao's performance from the first floor to the fifth floor had already made him dormant.

After a brief moment of confusion, Jiang Yan suddenly became very confused:

"Impossible, brother, Bei Guoxiao must have used some secret method to win the top spot on the fifth floor!"

Although Jiang Ping still had doubts in his mind, after witnessing Bei Guoxiao climbing up to the sixth floor step by step, he couldn't be as calm as Jiang Yan's doubts.

So he just nodded and said:

"Maybe, but at least I can't find anything wrong with those floors."

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Yan and Fu Liu and Li Xueqing behind her all looked surprised.

Because this was the first time they had seen Jiang Ping feel so unsure when questioning Bei Guoxiao.

At this moment, the elder from the sixth floor also walked out from the side of the high platform.

I saw Mr. Zhang, who had white beard and hair, with his hands behind his back. He looked at Xu Taiping with a serious expression and said:

"Although I also don't believe it, I have just received a summons from several elders from the first floor to the fifth floor, confirming that you have passed all the tests from the first floor to the fifth floor and are qualified to challenge the knife-sharpening boy on the sixth floor."

When he said this, the elder glanced at Li Xueqing who was standing aside, then looked at Bei Guoxiao and continued:

"If you are willing, you can challenge Li Xueqing first."

As soon as these words came out, many Xuandan Palace disciples, including Li Xueqing and others who had been staying on the sixth floor and were unaware of the situation downstairs, all exclaimed in shock.

Because what this elder said just now is undoubtedly the final word for everyone’s debate——

"Bei Guoxiao has indeed won the qualification to challenge the knife-sharpening boy."
