Chapter 10: A Heart as Steadfast as a Rock.
The path of martial arts is full of obstacles. Talent is important, and mindset is equally important. If one only has strong talent but lacks a resilient determination, their future achievements in martial arts will be equally bleak, and may even be inferior to those with lesser talent.
What do you think, Moi.
Level 2, passed!
A group of young girls giggled charmingly, with a bewitching and captivating demeanor, resembling a group of fairies.
Level one, passed!
What does this scene before my eyes amount to compared to that dream?
Close to that middle-aged man, Morison shouted.
The examiner said.
Lin Tian, along with other candidates, headed towards the backyard of the Wufu.
Could it be ... ...
Sigh.
Mo Ji is Mo Yi's nephew. Hearing the two of them speak like this, Mo Yi couldn't help but show a smile.
Lin Tianjing stood still, with no change in his expression.
This is the original temptation, enough to make any man's blood boil.
Standing in the grand formation, Lin Tianli's surroundings suddenly changed when he heard the words "Qi Zhen". A bloody space appeared before his eyes, with countless fierce ghosts baring their teeth and claws. Bull-headed and horse-faced demons strode towards him with clanking chains and menacing axes, as if they were dragging him into eternal hell.
Not bad, it's been a quarter of an hour. Let me calculate. It's only been half an hour now, so we can take a short rest.
Come on!
Mo Yidao.
He stood still in place, and the fierce ghost and the ox-headed horse-faced spirit rushed towards him, passing straight through his body.
Three people were talking and laughing.
On the white jade platform in this courtyard, Mo Yi stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the great formation. Beside him stood two other elders of the Jiuyang Martial Arts Hall, named Mu Qing and Shi Dong.
The middle-aged man is named Mo Yi, a member of the Mo family in Fengjian City, and also one of the elders of the Jiuyang Martial Academy. After hearing Mo Sen's words, he looked towards Lin Tian with a cold and indifferent expression.
No point.
This ... ...
Shi Dong smiled and said, "However, no matter how outstanding the talent of this group of candidates is, in terms of willpower alone, it is impossible for anyone to surpass Mo Ji, that child. He is the strongest warrior in terms of willpower that I have ever seen in my life."
Being reborn twice, is he still afraid of ghosts?
After exchanging greetings, he walked towards the backyard.
Second round assessment, test mindset!
This is indeed the truth. The martial arts spirit of that guy is truly terrifying, as if he was born for martial arts.
In front, in the midst of a large formation, Lin Tian suddenly opened his eyes.
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
The examiner was about to answer, but was preempted by Morrison.
Hmm!
Take them to the testing site and inform them of the rules in advance.
Now, all he has to do is cultivate and become stronger!
Therefore, talent is only a prerequisite.
Within the formation, Lin Tian calmly swept a glance at the other examinees within the formation. Then, with composure, he walked out of the formation in front of the examiner's widened eyes.
In the midst of this palace, his heart is as solid as a rock, unmoving like a mountain.
Half an hour later, I walked out of the illusion!
Three people changed color at the same time.
The place where the Nine Yang Martial Arts Mansion tests the state of mind is in the spacious courtyard behind the mansion. In the center of the courtyard, there is a large array inscribed by a powerful expert in the Sea of Consciousness realm. It is a illusion array specifically designed to test the state of mind of martial artists.
Mosen sneered and glanced at Lin Tianyi, following behind Moyi, heading towards the backyard.
Uncle.
After a quarter of an hour break, Lin Tian temporarily entrusted Lin Xi to an elderly person who was relatively familiar with the city. Then, he followed the examiners and other candidates to the testing site for the second round of assessment.
Lin Tian's face was calm and indifferent.
However, in the next moment, the expressions of the three individuals froze simultaneously.
Upon seeing this middle-aged person, Morrison's face brightened and he approached him.
The final level.
Lin Tianshen remained calm, showing extreme disdain for Morrison's actions. He followed the crowd and, under the guidance of the examiner, quickly arrived at the location of the second round of testing.
Shi Dong shook his head.
Shi Dong nodded and said, "There is a good chance of that."
It's hard to say. There is no correlation between one's willpower and talent. Some martial artists have extremely high talent but very fragile willpower, while others have extremely low talent or even no talent for martial arts, but their willpower is incredibly strong.
It is important to know that there are many temptations in the world, such as power, wealth, and beauty. For martial artists, these things can be potentially fatal. If one's will is not strong, it is very likely to get lost in them and lose the drive to move forward.
What's going on?
Upon seeing that all candidates have entered the arena, the examiner loudly shouted once.
A few days ago, on the green hills outside Fengjian City, he had an incredibly vivid dream. Nine unfamiliar figures were engaged in a fierce battle before his eyes, tearing apart the sky and shaking the earth. The balance of yin and yang in the universe was distorted and reversed due to the fight of those nine individuals.
Mosen pointed at Lin Tian.
The person looked at the large formation ahead, but their eyes were fixedly staring at Lin Tian.
He said lightly in his heart.
As its words fell, the candidates entered the front formation one after another.
Mosen, the child, is influenced by his older brother. His determination will not be lacking in any way. I believe that Mosen has a higher probability of being the first person to escape from the illusion.
At once, the spring scenery spread throughout the palace, and the luxurious atmosphere intertwined in every inch of the air.
It's him, the wild kid from the Lin family.
At the next moment, the scene changes again. The setting sun descends in the west, reaching the end of the horizon. Thousands of soldiers and horses gallop, shaking the earth. Thousands of cavalry hold their spears, each surrounded by a bloody battle spirit, charging towards him.
Now, he has nothing, so to him, all of this is just an illusion.
Same as above.
Speaking of it, it seems that Moji took about fifteen minutes at the beginning.
An enticing voice came out, and more than ten girls leaned against Lin Tian. Their jade-like skin rubbed against Lin Tian's body as they slowly took off their clothes. In an instant, more than ten graceful and captivating bodies were fully displayed in front of Lin Tian.
After a moment, he withdrew his gaze and looked at the examiner in the front.
Thousands of iron knights charged forward, with the roar of thousands of troops and horses. Their powerful momentum soared into the sky. However, when they approached Lin Tian, this illusion could not be sustained. In an instant, thousands of iron knights collapsed on their own, disappearing into thin air.
The third level, he appeared in a luxurious palace. Inside the palace, pink gauze rippled and the air was fragrant. More than ten graceful young girls were dressed in transparent thin shirts, their skin faintly visible, dancing with enchanting postures, slowly approaching him.
Ahead, the examiner in charge of the second round of testing stopped.
Mu Qing Dao.
Without a resilient martial arts spirit, even the strongest talent is in vain.
Being a person in two different worlds, coupled with the experience of encountering Xiao Yun after crossing over to this world, he deeply understands a truth, that is, in this world, if you don't have money, power, or enough strength, beautiful women are just fleeting clouds and bubbles.
In this assessment, there are many outstanding talents. Let's discuss who can be the first to walk out of the illusion in this second round of assessment.
Lin Tianjing stood still, with a hint of a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, looking down on everything.
Mu Qing agrees.
A middle-aged man of about forty-seven years old walked in that direction, exuding a steady aura.
The middle-aged man nodded at him, glanced casually at the candidates, and then looked at the examiner in front of him, saying, "I heard there is a martial artist with a nine-star talent. Who is it?"
Looking at Lin Tian walking to the side, the examiner in charge of the second round of assessment was almost petrified on the spot.
Start formation!
The elder in charge of the first round of assessment has already informed the senior members such as Mu Qing of the results of the talent assessment. As a nine-star talent, Mu Qing naturally has high expectations for him.
Let's all go in. Later, you will be immersed in a huge illusion. The content of the illusion is the second round of testing. This round of testing consists of three levels, with a time limit of two hours. The earlier you come out, the stronger your state of mind. Those who have not come out of the illusion after two hours are considered unqualified and will be eliminated.
Mr. Mo, you're back.
During the second round of assessment, the elders of Jiuyang Martial Academy occasionally visit. This time, his nephew, Morrison, participated in the martial academy assessment, and he even possessed a five-star talent. Naturally, he wanted to go and take a look.
Mosen and Xiaoyun were also in the crowd, their faces extremely gloomy, staring at Lin Tian's back like venomous snakes.
