The Way of the Sword (BL)

Chapter 141: Beauties and the content of the test

The huge white jade box flew away and opened in the sky, with a great glow that forced the novice disciples to close their eyes.

  When the brightness in the area faded, they finally saw what was inside that big box of white jade. There were 11 chests of different colors floating in the air. Each chest had a color in the following ascending order: white, pink, red, orange, yellow, green, dark green, light blue, royal blue, violet, and black.

  It didn't take a genius to understand that the colors of the balls represented the colors of the chest and that they would probably be divided into different groups (by colors) for testing with the training puppets.

  Well, that's what the novice disciples thought, but Hong Yu's words dispelled that idea from their minds.

  Hong Yu wore the same purple suit as the other disciples of the nucleus, but his belt was white and the ornament was even more luxurious than usual, it seemed that herons could fly at any time.

  Which made Hong Yu even more attractive to female disciples, mainly, that Hong Yu's face was very beautiful and his body was tall and slim.

  Do not question the taste of women of that time!

  Serious men, cold men, men with a more delicate aspect ... These were the men who were considered to be of the standards of beauty of that era. The lighter a man's skin was, the more charm he had ...

  Well, the bronze-colored skin also had its charm if the man was serious and ferocious, women were also attracted, but there had to be a combination of body beauty and character.

  Do not question the beauty standard of that Era.

People like Wen Jie and Zemin Yan were not welcomed as beauties. Wen Jie because of the scar on his face and his very honest temper. Zemin Yan, on the other hand, because of his common face and because he seems too kind, giving the impression of being a good friend and easily bullied.

Being honest and kind in the world of cultivation is the same as putting a sign "Come on, you can bully me"!

In the same way that being a serious person or having a cold personality is considered cool, beautiful, the personality of a genius.

That is why beautiful women with cold and distant temperaments are considered heavenly beauties. Handsome men with serious and cold temperaments are considered strong, charming and powerful cultivators. Handsome men with delicate beauty and gentle temperaments are considered to be beautiful paintings and highly desirable among women and men.

  Yes, the logic of this kind of world is very strange.

  People like Bai Lin and Hu Dewei ... One is a black person and the other looks like a monk ... Yes, the world is cruel with this kind of "exotic" beauty.

  Of course, this is all superfluous. If the person is powerful (influential) and has higher cultivation ... All of that can be forgotten. Therefore, many people always seek power, whether in martial cultivation or in the field of influence (political or economic). Because these people want to be special and want to be noticed.

  Achieving any power is a dream that many die on the way to reach the top.

  The young inner disciples and new disciples sigh in amazement looking at Hong Yu, while the men feel an invisible pressure on their hearts.

  Jong Kun just felt disgusted by all this, of course, the anger he tried to hide, however, sometimes that feeling was shown in his beautiful blue eyes.

  Ju Kang looked at Hong Yu and looked at all the women who sighed in awe, he just shook his head sadly watching several people fall into the trap of poisonous beauty.

  "Greed is always so attractive!" Thought Jun Kang, sighing sadly. While he himself was the big, tan, chubby face and big weight. Ahhh, he suffered from his appearance ... But he was too lazy to want to change!

"Well, everyone, pay attention here. You will be divided by the numbers, for example, whoever got the number 5 should meet with the people from number 5. This will also be the 5th group to join to fight the training puppets! "Said Hong Yu using his Heavenly Qi to amplify the sound of your voice.

Everyone looked confusedly at Hong Yu, as the chests were still floating in the sky and the colors of the chests were the same as the colors of the balls they held.

"The rules are simple, whoever gets the best result will win this round of prizes, in addition, the spade coins will also be given. There will be 100 coins of red swords plus the contents of the chest prize corresponding to each color for the first place. The s according to place will only earn 100 red sword coins and third place will win only 50 red sword coins "said Hong Yu clarifying some confusion of all.

"The results will be compared with the cult test so that we can see the growth of all of you. Whoever has the best growth result will enter the seats for our small tournament "said Hong Yu explaining how things would go.

"The content of the test is quite simple. It is now 7:00 in the morning. The veteran disciples will distribute a manual of the Transversal Cutting Technique. This manual is the first volume of a sword technique called the Inverse Cross-Cut Technique, which is considered a technique that even Alma Nascentes cultivators would find difficult to learn. The first volume is considered easy and basic. You will have 7:30 to 10:30 am to finish reading and you will have 1 hour to practice. The competition will start at 11:35 sharp and runs until 13:00. Each disciple will have a maximum of 1 minute to display what they have learned by fighting the Battle Puppet. At 13:15 the results and prizes will be distributed. At 13:20 it is the break and we will start the tournament and a new draw with new prizes at 14:10. "Elder Han Yie's voice reverberated throughout the arena, making the hearts of the challenging cultivators tremble.

The disciples were nervous about this change in testing ... Didn't they just have to show their techniques against the puppet? How did it become so complex ?!

"How could the test be that simple? Of course, those who came from a family of powerful martial cultivators would have an advantage if the test was just combated with a battle puppet. Now, at least people with a more humble status could try to fight with all their might "Elder Han thought, while ignoring the agitation his words caused.

Of course, the children of the families of martial cultivators and traders would still have advantages, that was undeniable. However, this would help Zemin Yan and his friends to hide their powers, as they would only have to reproduce the technique that is written in the manual.

Fortunately, volume 1 of the manual had many pictures to illustrate the technique, so people who cannot read could at least understand how the technique works.

It is not that Elder Han did not think that the children of powerful families did not have an advantage in this competition, even though he changed the content a little. Only, he had to be realistic, if the disciple could not understand this technique it would be better for this person not to participate in the small tournament. These weak novice disciples would only get hurt and throw the sect's face to the ground, likely to be bullied in the future because of defeat.
