Chapter 135: Will to Fight

At this moment, Huan Yin was already standing on the fourth floor of the Nine-Layered Pagoda. As soon as his figure appeared, the few Yijianfeng disciples around him cast strange eyes on Huan Yin.

It has been a long time since the fourth floor had "outside participating cultivators" come, and Huan Yin was the first cultivator to come here among the cultivators who came to participate in the Yijianfeng weapon master selection test this time. Therefore, the Yijianfeng disciples around him were surprised.

The fourth floor is much larger than the third floor, but there are fewer people on the fourth floor. Huan Yin thought about the 50,000 materials just now, and he realized that the assessment on the fourth floor should be a hurdle in the assessment of the Nine-Layered Pagoda. Not many people can cross this hurdle, but those who have crossed it are all people who have made certain achievements in identifying materials.

Huan Yin knew that the floor he was on now was the level where Zhao Wo stayed. He admired Zhao Wo's experience in sword-making, so he was looking forward to the classics on this floor.

As Huan Yin walked, he kept glancing at the classics around him. However, his actions were seen as "wandering" by the few Yijianfeng disciples on the fourth floor. Therefore, the Yijianfeng disciples around him became more curious about Huan Yin.

At first, they thought that Huan Yin might have passed the assessment to reach this level. After all, if he did not have enough knowledge, even if he spent spirit stones to reach this level, it would be difficult to understand the classics around him.

But now that Huan Yin was "wandering", the people around him felt more and more that Huan Yin should be a wealthy casual cultivator who wanted to come up to broaden his horizons, so they all put on a proud expression.

At this moment, Huan Yin's eyes were naturally not on others. He walked around the fourth floor and found several copies of the old classics he borrowed from the sect. He had read these old classics, so he knew that the knowledge recorded in them was profound and could not be understood without enough sword-making attainments.

It can be seen that the level of the classics on the fourth floor is indeed much higher than that of the first three floors, but Huan Yin still could not find the classics he wanted in the end.

So, when the people around thought Huanyin had "wandered" enough and wanted to leave, they found that Huanyin walked straight to the light curtain of this level and stretched out his hand to press it down.

"He got here by challenging!" This was the voice in the heart of every Yijianfeng cultivator on the fourth level at this moment.

"He's going to go up! Is his level higher than mine?" The second voice sounded in the heart of every weapon cultivator here.

Then, Huanyin's palm touched the light curtain and disappeared on the fourth level.

"The test of the fifth level of the Nine-Layered Pagoda, there are 100,000 casting materials, and you will pass if you recognize 20,000. The assessment begins!" The voice of the fifth level assessment sounded in Huanyin's ears, and in front of him at this moment, there were all kinds of sword-making materials that could not be seen.

Although the number of sword-making materials on this level has only doubled, the materials that need to be identified are 20% of the total. You should know that the assessments of the previous levels only required recognition of 10%, so the difficulty of the assessment on this level has increased sharply again!

"No wonder Zhao Wo is stuck at this level. It seems that starting from the previous level, the difficulty of each level will increase significantly, the time required for identification will become longer and longer, and the energy consumption of the people taking the test will become greater and greater." Huan Yin thought secretly in his heart.

"Come on, since there is no classic book suitable for me on the fourth level, I will definitely pass the fifth level! So what if there are 100,000 materials? What I have learned and know is more than 100,000!" Huan Yin's chest has been ignited with fighting spirit at this moment. This is the first time he has felt so excited since he started to learn to refine weapons by himself.

If there are senior experts who refine weapons here to see Huan Yin's state, they will definitely be shocked by the fighting spirit of this young boy at this moment. Because refining weapons belongs to the way of literature, unlike training cultivation and learning magic, which is closely related to fighting and killing. Therefore, people who practice the way of literature, such as cultivators who refine pills or weapons, rarely have fighting spirit. Even most literary cultivators believe that fighting spirit can only be generated during fighting.

In fact, cultivating the Way of Literature is the same as cultivating the Way of Magic and improving the Way of Martial Arts. It is a process for cultivators to constantly pursue progress and improve themselves. Since it is progress and improvement, there must be an object of comparison.

Take the Way of Martial Arts for example. The level of cultivation, the strength of the magic, and even the quality of the magic weapon are all ways of comparison between martial artists. It is precisely because of the existence of these methods that martial artists will have the desire to fight when they encounter challenges that make them excited and excited.

The Way of Literature is the same as the Way of Martial Arts. Whether it is alchemy or weapon refining, there are ways for cultivators to compete with each other. The way to compete in sword forging is to compare materials and sword forging. The literary battle that Huan Yin had with Xu Yin and Zhao Wo before was a comparison in the Way of Literature.

Comparison means challenge, so as long as the literary cultivators encounter exciting comparisons and challenges, the desire to fight will also emerge on the road of literature!

The desire to fight represents the cultivator's persistence in the Way, the cultivator's desire for progress, and the potential to go to the next level!

The fighting spirit of the literary way is rarer than the martial way, so the fighting spirit of the literary way represents a greater significance!

The fighting spirit that emerged from Huan Yin at this moment represented that he had regarded the sword-making as an important path as improving his cultivation! It also represented that he had the potential to create miracles in the sword-making!

One hundred thousand kinds of materials floated in front of Huan Yin's eyes one by one, constantly turning into blue books one by one, and flew back to the nothingness in front of him. At this moment, Huan Yin's eyes had nothing but materials, and he had been deeply immersed in the world of identifying materials!

Three hours later, the last blue light column on the right side of the Nine-Layered Pagoda suddenly emitted a strong light, illuminating the place where the Nine-Layered Pagoda was originally shrouded in darkness.

It was already the hour of Hai, and when Huan Yin was taking the test in the Nine-Layered Pagoda, the sky had already turned from bright to dark. Around the Nine-Layered Pagoda, except for a few dozen good-hearted disciples who were still waiting for Huan Yin to break into the pagoda, most of them had already returned to their residences.

However, the sudden blue light now attracted the Yijianfeng disciples who were passing by and who had just come out of the Nine-Layered Pagoda, and they also stopped here. As a result, many more disciples stationed by the Nine-Layered Pagoda instantly came out.

"Someone passed the test of the fifth floor!" The passing disciple looked surprised and shouted at the extremely bright blue light column at the end.

Then, the Yijianfeng disciples around him had a burst of discussions and speculations. The assessment of the fifth floor of the Nine-Layered Pagoda requires a total of 100,000 materials, and the materials that need to be recognized are also required to be 20,000. Therefore, even in Yijianfeng, there are no more than 300 people who can pass this level of assessment, and these 300 people are now considered masters of identifying materials in Yijianfeng.

Therefore, for the disciples of Yijianfeng, seeing the blue light on the side of the Nine-Layered Pagoda, they will be surprised, because the blue light represents the emergence of a new master.

"It's Huanyin, it must be the person named Huanyin!" The dozen Yijianfeng disciples who have been waiting here shouted loudly.

"Yes, it must be him, this Huanyin seems to be a casual cultivator!" Another Yijianfeng disciple who has been waiting here said.

As if responding to the guesses of the two disciples, in the suddenly bright blue light column, a new name gradually became clear from blurry. Then, all the onlookers saw the new name-Huanyin!

"Huanyin, how could it be him, how is this possible?" As soon as Huanyin's name appeared, a surprised voice came out from the crowd of Yijianfeng disciples.

"Brother, do you know who this Huan Yin is?" The disciples around asked hurriedly. They all wanted to know who this Huan Yin was, because they didn't remember that there was a fellow disciple named Huan Yin in their Yijian Peak.

"I heard that there was a casual cultivator named Huan Yin among the outsiders who participated in the test this time. He had a literary duel with Master Zhao Wo a few days ago, and it was this casual cultivator named Huan Yin who won!" The Yijian Peak disciple said at the beginning.

"A casual cultivator defeated Master Zhao? How is this possible? Brother, don't joke!" The disciples around talked at once, and they all thought that the man was talking nonsense.

But the man argued: "Have you heard of a person named Huan Yin in Yijian Peak? If not, then he is a casual cultivator. Now he has passed the fifth level assessment. I heard that Master Zhao has not passed the fifth level yet!"

As soon as he said this, the disciples around him who refuted him were suddenly speechless.

After a while, another young Yijianfeng disciple who passed by saw the word "Huan Yin" in the blue light column. He ran to the crowd standing next to the Nine-Layer Pagoda with a shocked look on his face and asked anxiously: "Dear brothers, did Brother Huan Yin pass the fifth-level assessment?"

Originally, everyone was speculating, and when they heard a young disciple ask this, they asked back: "Do you know Huan Yin?"

"Yes, in the newcomer martial arts competition I participated in, Brother Huan Yin from Wuliangmen was ranked third, and his strength is actually recognized by us as the best!" The young disciple who just came over happened to be a new disciple of Yijianfeng who participated in the same martial arts competition as Huan Yin.

"How old is he?" Someone immediately asked the disciple.

"Brother Huan, I think he should be twelve or thirteen years old now?" The disciple was a little unsure.

"What, twelve or thirteen years old? Grandmaster Lan Yanzi didn't pass the fifth level when he was twelve or thirteen years old, right? Besides, the Huan Yin you mentioned is not my Yijianfeng disciple at all, how is this possible? If these two Huan Yins are really the same person, then this junior is not only good at literature and martial arts, but also unmatched by anyone?"

...

Huan Yin stood in the void at this moment, looking at the densely packed blue books in front of him, which numbered as many as 100,000, and he felt indescribably comfortable in his heart.

He won this battle! 100,000 materials, what can I do?

Huan Yin waved his sleeves, and his mind was transmitted, appearing on the fifth floor of the Nine-Layered Pagoda!
