The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 42: A Sword Falling in the Snow

At the edge of the cliff, in addition to Li Hao and his group, there were many other people standing nearby, looking around from time to time.

Obviously, once you fall off the cliff, you will be crushed to pieces. It is so dangerous that many people hesitate.

And at this moment, there are seven or eight figures on the iron chain, each showing their magical powers and moving forward cautiously.

Some were walking on the iron chains calmly. The swaying chains were like waves in the sea, but it had no effect on them at all, and their feet seemed to be glued to them.

Some people open their hands, try hard to maintain balance, and walk slowly and tentatively.

Others chose an ugly but extremely stable method, which was to hold the chain and slowly pupate...

If it was just a matter of climbing over the chains, basically everyone present could do it, but this level undoubtedly tested courage.

At such a high altitude, who wouldn’t have trembling legs and feet?

"If you don't even have this much courage, how can you dare to face the demons?"

Among the seven people who had just passed the test, a young man in gorgeous clothes with a cold expression was the first to jump up and landed steadily on the chain.

Obviously, he chose the elegant way and walked straight over with his hands behind his back, showing his calmness.

The boy's actions immediately attracted the attention of many people who stopped by. They were all surprised, and soon someone recognized the boy's identity.

"The cloud pattern on the sleeves is from the Su family of Yunzhou!"

"The Su family? I heard that it is one of the three great families in Yunzhou, with a profound foundation."

"No wonder this kid is so bold. There are many monsters on the border of Yunzhou. I guess he has trained his courage a long time ago."

Many people were talking about it, and some of those who were hesitant had a look of struggle in their eyes.

"Brother Hao, let's go too."

Seeing someone taking the lead, Li Yuanzhao felt a little uncomfortable and said to Li Hao.

Li Hao looked around at the edge of the cliff, but did not see anyone from the Tan Palace Academy, and felt a little confused.

Logically speaking, the Tan Palace Academy should send someone here to pick them up, otherwise what is the point of sending the invitation?

"Ok."

Since no one showed up, Li Hao had no choice but to agree to Li Yuanzhao's request.

"Humph, there is no way to cheat at this level."

Si Xiaolan sneered at Li Hao. It was obvious that Li Hao had passed the first level with the help of his background, which made her quite angry and felt it was too unfair.

"is it?"

Li Hao looked at the little girl in surprise. She actually dared to mock him. Didn't she know who he was? However, he didn't argue with the little girl.

"How do you say it?"

Li Hao thought for a moment and responded to her: "Little sister, when you go out, you don't rely on your fists, and you don't just rely on someone behind you."

"Ok?"

Si Xiaolan frowned. Why were these words so similar to what she had said before?

"Because it's not enough to just have someone behind you, you also need someone in front of you!"

Li Hao chuckled at the little girl, then raised his head, his eyes revealing a calmness, and whispered:
"Brother, come!"

"Brother Hao, do you want me to carry you?"

Li Yuanzhao understood it very well. He heard from the adults in the courtyard that Li Hao had poor aptitude and could only practice body training. He had never seen Brother Hao take action on weekdays, so he had thought of this method a long time ago and would never embarrass Brother Hao.

Li Hao smiled slightly and patted his shoulder.

Li Yuanzhao understood and bent down.

Li Hao was not polite and jumped on his back, then waved to the stunned girl next to him:
"See you on the other side."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuanzhao rushed out impatiently, leaped dozens of meters away, and landed directly on the chain.

The chain swung violently, but Li Yuanzhao, carrying Li Hao on his back, swung along with the chain, and his feet remained sticky to the chain.

Then, without waiting for the chain to stabilize completely, Li Yuanzhao spread his legs and ran as fast as if he was walking on flat ground.

Having reached the perfection of the Zhoutian realm, and with the years of training in martial arts and the basics of standing still, this test was a piece of cake for him.

Seeing the figure speeding on the chain, everyone on the shore, except Si Xiaolan, widened their eyes. They had seen people pretending to be cool, but they had never seen anyone so ferocious. Was he simply treating this as land?

The key is that they may not be able to run so fast on flat ground!

And he was carrying a person!

When they saw clearly what the two were wearing, some people with sharp eyes recognized them as the first family in Qingzhou. They immediately understood what was going on, but they still felt a little shocked. It is said that rumors are not as good as meeting in person, but meeting today is worse than rumors.

Soon, the young man in fancy clothes who had locked himself up first was overtaken by Li Yuanzhao who was running fast.

The latter walked leisurely with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent. When the wind blew past him, a trace of astonishment appeared on his face...

Soon, Li Yuanzhao landed on the other side.

The chain is thousands of feet long, stretching across the sky and weaving through the white mist between the mountains.

Li Yuanzhao's running figure dispersed a lot of the fog, and he jumped to the other side, immediately attracting the attention of many people nearby.

Li Hao patted the other man's shoulder, jumped off his back, and looked around.

Obviously they didn't arrive early, as there were many people who had passed the previous checkpoints stopping here.

In front of these "interviewees" were students from Tan Gong Academy wearing the same school uniform. They were all teenagers around 17 or 18 years old. They looked quite elegant in their black and white school uniforms.

Of course, this is only the case when worn by good-looking people, but for those with a sturdy figure or a plain appearance, it would be a bit eye-catching...

"Who is that person? He is so powerful?"

"You ran over here? And you're carrying someone on your back?" "One dares to carry, and the other dares to be carried!"

"Hush, be careful, they seem to be from the Li family of the Divine General's Mansion..."

Dozens of people standing around were talking about it.

Li Yuanzhao stepped forward and came to a young man from Tan Gong Academy and asked, "Are there any checkpoints here?"

"Yes, this is the last level."

The young man obviously recognized Li Yuanzhao's identity. After all, he had come to Qingzhou City for several years to practice, and it was not far from the God General's Mansion, so it would be hard for him not to know.

"To pass this level, you need to go through a round with us."

If the first level is to test basic skills and the second level is to train martial courage, then the third level seems to be a bit of a warning to newcomers.

When Li Yuanzhao heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up with a fighting spirit: "Please teach me!"

As he said this, he saluted with his fists, then stepped back a few steps and prepared to punch and kick.

"You can choose your weapon," the young man reminded with a smile.

"It's just one round, no need." Li Yuanzhao said.

The young man's eyes flickered slightly, feeling a little looked down upon, but when he thought that everyone in the Li family was said to be geniuses, he didn't take it too seriously. In his heart, he also had a trace of curiosity and wanted to explore.

Immediately, he gave up using the sword, raised his hand and swung his fist and rushed forward.

The punches are as powerful as a tiger pouncing on a wolf and the attack is ferocious.

Li Yuanzhao turned around and moved smoothly like a loach shrinking into a hole. Then he suddenly turned around and punched back.

With a bang, the two fists collided and the young man actually took three steps back. On the other hand, Li Yuanzhao just sank his feet and stood firm in place.

The young man showed a look of shock. Although he didn't use his full strength, this punch still had a force of over ten thousand pounds!
It is equivalent to the third level of the ordinary Zhoutian realm!

This has already exceeded the entry test standard by a lot. After all, the lowest standard is to achieve perfection in the Tongli realm.

As a result, I was careless and almost embarrassed myself?
"At least he must be at the fifth level of the Zhoutian Realm, or even at the seventh or eighth level, or he must have practiced the top-notch luck method or meridian-opening method!"

A solemn look appeared in the young man's eyes. The rumors were indeed true. The children of the Li family were all monsters with countless resources accumulated, far surpassing their peers.

When others saw that the young man was at a disadvantage after just one punch, they were all stunned and looked at Li Yuanzhao as if he were a monster. Is this the genius of the Divine General's Mansion?
At this time, the chains were swinging, and several figures jumped up and landed one after another. They were the young man from the Yunzhou Su family, as well as Si Xiaolan and others.

The other Tan Palace students immediately explained the rules to them. When they heard the requirements, their expressions became a little solemn.

After all, being able to enter the Tan Palace Academy at least means he is considered a genius, and the other party has practiced hard for several years, so this trick is not easy to deal with.

Si Xiaolan's heart moved, and she looked at Li Hao next to her. Seeing that he was still there, she couldn't help showing a trace of annoyance in her eyes. She knew that the other party had an invitation, so she would most likely pass this level directly.

Compared to those of them who had gone through so many hardships to get through, the other party was simply lying there. This is the difference in their backgrounds.

"it's your turn."

At this time, a burly young man next to him said to Li Hao.

Li Hao smiled slightly, and in front of Si Xiaolan's "as expected" expression, he took out the invitation: "I have the invitation."

He didn't intend to do the same as Li Yuanzhao and waste his energy and bully others.

"invitation?"

Everyone looked at them with surprise, doubt, envy and jealousy.

The burly young man was slightly startled, and he had obviously heard some rumors. He frowned slightly, took the invitation and looked at it for a moment, then handed it back to Li Hao:
"Although there is an invitation, the basic test is still required. I can hold back a little."

Li Hao was slightly stunned.

The young man who was testing Li Yuanzhao nearby, as well as several other students from Tan Palace who were in charge of the test, all secretly covered their foreheads. It was over. Their nerves were stuck here again.

"Come on." The burly young man had energy flowing through his body, ready to attack at any time.

Li Hao couldn't help but ask: "Do you know what an invitation means?"

"I told you, I will hold back. You have to at least show some performance, otherwise people will think that we at Tan Gong Academy are trying to curry favor with the rich and powerful and give people backdoors." The burly young man said with a serious look and a persistent attitude.

Li Hao was speechless.

It is said that people have many different appearances. Obviously, this burly young man is a more upright and stubborn person.

"Pfft..." Beside her, Si Xiaolan couldn't help laughing out loud, and looked at Li Hao with a gloating look in her bright eyes.

She thought she had let him get away easily, but ended up meeting a wonderful man. She even felt that the burly young man looked a little more handsome.

"You can use any weapon you want."

The burly young man pointed at the weapons rack next to him with a serious expression.

Li Hao felt a little helpless, but he was not angry with the young man. After all, it's not a bad thing to be serious.

He walked to the weapon rack, drew out a sword, and returned to the burly young man.

"Use a sword?" The burly young man's eyes moved slightly and he nodded: "Then you go first."

He also drew the sword from his back, with a swordsman's seriousness in his eyes.

"You go first." Li Hao said.

"If I attack first, you probably won't stand a chance." The burly young man said word by word.

"……All right."

Li Hao sighed and casually made a sword flower.

Swordsmanship...falling snow.

"Hmm?" Si Xiaolan suddenly felt as if snowflakes were floating in front of her eyes, and she felt a chill and frost all over her body. She couldn't help but look up:
"It's only autumn, why is it snowing?"
