Chapter 39: Foundation Establishment Puppet

June 9th, drink good wine.

Today is the last hurdle.

This hurdle tests combat with low-level demonic beasts, so candidates are allowed to carry weapons.

Of course, ordinary weapons won't do; they must be Dharma weapons.

One-star is passable, two-star is okay, three-star is best.

What Zhang Xingyu carried on his back was a three-star Dharma saber.

This Dharma saber was obtained by Zhang Xingyu on the way to escort the kind-hearted Hu to Juhuai Village, and later given to Hu Siping.

This time, Hu Siping was afraid that someone would sabotage the exam, so he forced the Dharma saber back onto Zhang Xingyu.

"Xingyu, take this three-star Dharma saber with you, just in case." Hu Siping patted Zhang Xingyu's shoulder and said.

"Thank you, Fourth Brother. With this three-star Dharma saber, even if I encounter a demonic beast puppet like the Six-Tailed Snow Fox, I have the strength to fight." Zhang Xingyu carried the Dharma saber on his back.

Hu Siping shook his head and urged again: "Xingyu, be careful, don't be careless. According to Brother Jin, the last time we killed the Six-Tailed Snow Fox was pure luck. At that time, that Six-Tailed Snow Fox was in a weak period after changing its tail, with less than one-tenth of its usual strength. Otherwise, how could we few be opponents of a Golden Core stage demonic beast."

Zhang Xingyu chuckled: "Fourth Brother, put your heart in your stomach. This is an entrance exam, how could Nanhua Immortal Academy release a Golden Core stage demonic beast? With the strength of a Golden Core stage demonic beast, which candidate could take a punch? Moreover, if a Golden Core stage demonic beast accidentally escaped, wouldn't that cause a huge disaster."

"That's what's said. In short, don't be careless, caution is the parent of safety." Hu Siping added again.

"Got it, Fourth Brother. You're nagging so much, you're almost like an old lady." Zhang Xingyu laughed.

Nanhua Immortal Academy, Long Xiaotian's small courtyard.

Long Xiaotian smashed the purple clay teapot in his hand to pieces.

"Shao Ke, Bai Ping, what are you two for? That kid has already passed three hurdles." Long Xiaotian roared loudly at Shao Ke and Bai Ping beside him.

Shao Ke lowered his head and didn't say a word.

Bai Ping hung his head and answered weakly: "Young Master Long, that kid is really a bit strange, he actually recognizes even obscure characters. His luck is also good, he just happened to meet the Proctor on patrol, so he luckily passed three hurdles."

Seeing that Long Xiaotian's anger had not subsided, he hurriedly added: "But don't worry, I have already entrusted someone to arrange a big one in the fourth hurdle. As soon as that kid enters the arena, it will be activated immediately. At that time, that kid will either die or give up."

"What big one?" Long Xiaotian asked.

"A second-tier Qi Refining stage demonic beast puppet. A kid like him who hasn't practiced can at most deal with a first-tier one, he definitely can't deal with a second-tier one." Bai Ping patted his chest and said.

"No, to be safe, change it to a Foundation Establishment stage demonic beast puppet for me. I want that stinky kid to die!" Long Xiaotian roared at Bai Ping with a ferocious face.

Bai Ping touched his head, very embarrassed: "Young Master Long, the academy has regulations, the entrance exam can only use Qi Refining stage demonic beast puppets. If it's changed to a Foundation Establishment stage one, if it's investigated later, I'm afraid..."

"What are you afraid of, my father is Long Gang, the Vice Dean of the academy. You just do as I say. If something happens, I will take responsibility." Long Xiaotian urged loudly.

"Yes, I'll have someone change it right away." Bai Ping nodded hurriedly.

The last one.

Finish this exam and call it a day.

Hopefully everything goes smoothly.

Zhang Xingyu prayed secretly while searching for his examination hall along the corridor.

The examination hall number on his admission ticket was fourteen. Fourteen, sounds like death, sounds very unlucky.

He frowned. But then he thought again, there are foreigners who think fourteen is a lucky number. Numbers are just a personal psychological effect, why should he worry about it himself? His frowned brow immediately relaxed.

Passing through the long corridor, at the end of the corridor, he finally saw the room numbered fourteen.

The room for examination hall number fourteen was not big, only about one hundred square meters, with a snow wolf one zhang long lying in the center.

Seeing Zhang Xingyu enter, red light appeared in the snow wolf's eyes.

"Awoo!"

It raised its tail, opened its big mouth, bared its fangs, and let out a wild roar at Zhang Xingyu.

The snow wolf's roar brought huge pressure to Zhang Xingyu.

His heart contracted violently, blood flow accelerated, and the Dharma saber held tightly in his hand trembled slightly.

"Swish!"

Just at this moment, the snow wolf suddenly kicked hard and pounced towards Zhang Xingyu.

Zhang Xingyu stood still. His eyes stared fixedly at the snow wolf, and the snow wolf's ferocious face was rapidly enlarging in his pupils.

Seeing the prey not dodging or avoiding, a human-like smugness appeared on the snow wolf's face.

Humans kill wolves, wolves eat humans. The snow wolf had practiced for a hundred years and opened its wisdom, never expecting to fall under the sword of a human cultivator.

In the remaining memory fragments, it was skinned and cramped by human cultivators, and the outcome was miserable. I want revenge, I want to use human flesh and blood to soothe the hatred of my previous life. This is the obsession remaining in the snow wolf's shell.

Seeing the snow wolf's sharp claws about to wipe his neck, Zhang Xingyu, who had been motionless, suddenly moved.

He saw him side-step, stride, swing the saber, the movements were flowing like clouds and water, done in one go.

One sword strike, hitting the snow wolf's lower back right on target.

In an instant, a half-foot-long wound appeared on the snow wolf's lower back.

Hit a snake in the seven inches, hit a wolf in the lower back. The lower back is exactly the wolf's weak point. Zhang Xingyu succeeded with one strike and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

This wolf, can be fought.

Just strange!

With such a long wound, the snow wolf actually didn't bleed.

The snow wolf fell to the ground and climbed up again after a while.

"Awoo!"

It howled at Zhang Xingyu and pounced again.

Damn, again.

Zhang Xingyu didn't dare to be slow, side-step, stride, swing the sword, cut again.

Another half-foot-long wound appeared on the snow wolf's body.

However, the snow wolf acted as if nothing happened and pounced again.

What the hell?

No bleeding, can't be cut to death.

Could it be the legendary demonic beast puppet?

Zhang Xingyu was surprised in his heart, but the movements in his hands were not affected at all.

Dodge, swing the sword.

The snow wolf pounced more than ten times in a row, and Zhang Xingyu also cut it more than ten times.

I don't know what's going on, this snow wolf seems to only know this one move of pouncing.

The same position, the same ten cuts.

The fur on the snow wolf's waist was rolled up, revealing the black bones inside one by one.

Zhang Xingyu held the saber horizontally in front of his chest. His arms were a bit sore, and his body was also scratched by the snow wolf with several blood marks.

Unfortunately, the snow wolf puppet was fearless of death.

Before he could catch his breath, the snow wolf pounced again.

Ding ding dang dang!

The Dharma saber hit the snow wolf's iron bones, splashing out sparks one by one.

Damn!

Iron bones.

Cut dozens of times, except for splashing a few sparks, there was no effect at all.

You know, what Zhang Xingyu held in his hand was a three-star Dharma weapon, hundreds of times sharper than an ordinary steel saber.

"One hundred, one hundred and one..."

"Three hundred and eight, three hundred and nine..."

Zhang Xingyu's physical strength was exhausted, agility -10, dodge -10, strength -10.

"Swoosh!"

A sharp pain came, and his left shoulder was scratched by the snow wolf's sharp claws with a two-inch-long wound.

Blood flowed down from his shoulder, staining a large part of his chest clothes red.

Life -100.

Zhang Xingyu shivered in pain, and the Dharma saber in his hand almost fell to the ground.

No.

Must be a fatal blow.

Otherwise, if this continues, he will inevitably fall under the sharp claws of this snow wolf puppet.

Everything in the world cannot be perfect.

This snow wolf must also have its own flaws.

Since the lower back is not it, then it's mostly in other places. Find its weak point and give it a hard blow.

With my current state, I can at most give the snow wolf one more fatal blow. After one blow, I'm afraid I won't even have the strength to lift the saber.

But, where is its fatal point?

Just as Zhang Xingyu was thinking to himself, the red light in the snow wolf's eyes flashed again, and its huge body pounced towards him again.

Eyes!

Yes, the snow wolf's eyes haven't been attacked yet.

The eyes are mostly its fatal point.

Whatever, let's bet on this.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xingyu no longer hesitated. The tip of the Dharma saber aimed at the snow wolf's eyes, and his own pupils also kept enlarging with the snow wolf's eyes.

"Stab!"

Just as the snow wolf's sharp claws scratched his chest, the Dharma saber in Zhang Xingyu's hand also swung out.

"Bang!"

One strike succeeded, the snow wolf's left eye instantly burst open.

Life -3000. The snow wolf fell to the ground and couldn't climb up for a long time.

Zhang Xingyu leaned on the Dharma saber and gasped for breath.

He really wanted to go over and add another cut, but he had no strength left in his body. He had no time to deal with the wounds on his body, and no strength to deal with the wounds on his body.

He really wanted to lie down, lie down and have a good rest.

But he knew that if he lay down, he might never be able to stand up again.

So, he just stood there leaning on the Dharma saber.

A quarter of an hour later, the snow wolf wobbled and climbed up again.

This time, it didn't roar.

It used its four limbs to exert force and pounced forward violently.

It's a pity that its left eye was gone, its field of vision was incomplete, and the accuracy of its attack immediately dropped by half.

Zhang Xingyu had recovered quite a bit of strength. He saw him side-step, stride, swing the saber.

"Crack!"

The snow wolf's right eyeball shattered, and it immediately became blind. It kept waving its claws, but didn't know where to attack.

Beat the blind wolf.

The next things became very simple.

Zhang Xingyu kept cutting at the snow wolf's neck.

A quarter of an hour later, a ferocious wolf head fell to the ground.

Losing its head, the snow wolf's body scattered and split apart.

Finally killed it.

Zhang Xingyu breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground with a thud.

After resting for a while, he walked to the snow wolf's side and found a shining stone from a pile of bones and fur.

Spirit stone.

Medium-grade spirit stone?

Zhang Xingyu had seen low-grade spirit stones.

Compared with this spirit stone, the low-grade spirit stone's appearance was far worse.

Zhang Xingyu held this stone and felt a breath flowing inside.

He thought for a moment, put away this spirit stone, and then picked up the snow wolf's head.

The snow wolf's eyes were still flickering, and its big mouth was still opening and closing.

This ghost thing, could it be that it's not dead yet.

Zhang Xingyu raised the Dharma saber and cut along the snow wolf's big mouth.

Before long, the wolf head was split in two, and a bead the size of a pea fell out.

Zhang Xingyu picked up the bead and found that there seemed to be a shadow of a snow wolf inside.

Zhang Xingyu took the bead to his eyes and watched carefully.

A moment later, the bead disappeared in his hand.

"Ding dong! Heart connected, service forever, God Domain System serves you wholeheartedly!" The system's advertisement slogan sounded again.

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining ten God Yuan Values, currently possessing twelve God Yuan Values." ===== CHAPTER 40 =====
