Chapter 628: Two Swords Pass the Assessment

The archive clerk was stunned, but still did as Lin Yang said.

Lin Yang spent the whole afternoon browsing the files.

These files all recount the events of the Bronze Gate.

Soon, Lin Yang noticed a file bag.

On the bag there was a date, but inside there was nothing.

Obviously, the files inside had been taken.

Lin Yang looked at the files, summoned the administrator, and asked what was going on.

"Report to the Dragon King, these files were taken by the people of Congress Hill."

"We don't know what was recorded inside either."

Upon hearing that Congress Hill had taken them, Lin Yang furrowed his brow.

Obviously, what was recorded inside was something extraordinary.

"Alright, I understand, you may go."

After the administrator left, Lin Yang continued examining them.

After looking for an afternoon, Lin Yang sat cross-legged on the ground.

All the files recorded the appearance of the Bronze Gate.

The most recent occurrence was on the eve of the new millennium.

After that, Congress Hill sent people to encircle Kunlun Mountain.

No one may enter Kunlun Mountain without orders.

And the report on that incident was taken by the people of Congress Hill.

"Looks like I still need to make a trip to Congress Hill."

As he left the archive room, gazing at the pitch-black night, he chuckled.

"However, before that, there's still something unresolved."

When Lin Yang was about to leave the base, Sima Feng found him.

"Dragon King, the Jiang Clan is looking for you; they want to talk."

Upon hearing that the Jiang Clan wanted to see him, Lin Yang smirked.

"I have nothing to discuss with them."

"Between us, one of us must die!"

Sima Feng hesitated upon hearing that, then said.

"Dragon King, the Jiang Clan could become the Royal Family naturally because they have their foundations."

"If you don't go to the Jiang Clan, they may not be able to do anything to you, but if you forcefully intrude, trouble may arise."

"I think you should sit down and talk about this."

Lin Yang furrowed his brow, then relaxed.

"Talking is fine; let Jiang Hao and I discuss."

"If the Jiang Clan wants to talk with me, they at least need to show some sincerity."

Sima Feng knew this was Lin Yang's final stance, and he nodded.

"Alright, I'll relay that to them."

Seeing Lin Yang about to leave the base, he asked.

"Where are you headed, do you need me to give you a ride?"

Lin Yang laughed heartily.

"I'm going to undergo the assessment; no need for you to escort me."

Hearing that Lin Yang actually wanted to undergo the assessment, Sima Feng's face showed shock.

"Even a monster like Lin Yang needs to undergo the assessment—just who could be judging him!"

He had just wanted to ask when Lin Yang vanished from before his eyes.

Sima Feng let out a long sigh.

"Looks like I was previously viewing the sky from a well."

"Even the Dragon King needs to undergo assessment; I must train diligently."

West of Yanjing's outskirts.

Several members of the cultivation club were already waiting there.

The leader, one person, bore a long sword and wore a mask.

"Hmph, that brat made us wait so long—does he not regard us at all?"

"When that brat arrives, we ought to give him a proper lesson."

At that moment, the leading man spoke.

"The matter of disciplining him can wait until after the assessment ends."

He produced three formation diagrams and handed them to the three.

"You hold these three formation diagrams; when unfurled, they will be under your control."

"This is a formation diagram taken out by Young Master Jiang from the Jiang Clan; ordinary Zhù jī stage cultivators, if trapped, will be injured."

"Remember, control it carefully; do not kill him."

"He has some ability; we just need to rough up his vigor and bring him under our command."

"By then, Young Master Jiang will be richly rewarded."

Upon hearing this, the three were all filled with excitement.

"Grand Elder, rest assured, we will definitely get this done."

Hearing everyone's address, the masked man was very pleased.

This title means that in the club, he is below one person and above ten thousand.

"All right, you guys disperse quickly."

Not long after the three left, the masked man glanced at the time and furrowed his brow.

"This brat, he really needs a lesson!"

Just as the words fell, Lin Yang's lazy voice sounded.

"You can't say that; I've rushed here as best I could."

Seeing Lin Yang appear with a cheerful smile, the club's Grand Elder let out a cold snort.

"You count as late; I can cancel your qualification!"

Upon hearing that, Lin Yang laughed and said.

"Sure, I'm leaving first."

The masked man froze instantly.

What's going on? This guy isn't playing by the usual rules.

Before, no one had ever been late during the evaluation.

But as soon as they heard they might lose their qualification, they all begged for mercy.

Yet at this moment, Lin Yang actually wore an indifferent expression.

Could it be that he truly doesn't want to enter the club's core?

That, however, contains things from the outside world that rarely appear.

As he spoke coldly, Lin Yang had already left only his back.

The masked man hurriedly shouted.

"Come back, I was just joking."

When he stopped his steps, Lin Yang looked at him with a cheerful smile.

"Actually, I was just joking too."

Upon hearing that, the masked man's face instantly darkened.

But he suppressed his anger and brought Lin Yang back to the already set-up Formation (Array).

As long as you can reach the end of the forest, you pass the test.

Saying that, he took out a stopwatch.

However, you must finish within one hour.

Lin Yang glanced at the forest and said with a cheerful smile.

It's really too simple; I don't need an hour, just one minute will do.

Hearing this, the masked man felt pleased in his heart.

This arrogant guy now speaks so boastfully.

By the time he reaches the forest, he'll probably regret it so much his intestines turn green.

The three people in the forest, upon hearing Lin Yang's words, also let out a cold laugh.

This guy truly doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.

The masked man looked at Lin Yang and pressed the stopwatch.

Then let's begin.

He had already prepared to watch the show.

Who would have thought, Lin Yang took out the Dragon Slayer Sword.

"Then I'll clear the field first!"

Having said that, he slashed forward with a sword.

A huge sword light swept across the entire forest.

All the trees were instantly cut down.

The second sword fell, and a huge gully appeared on the ground.

The formation diagram originally set up in the forest directly exploded.

The three were also blown backward by the shockwave, fell to the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood, and Fainted.

After two swords, Lin Yang smiled slightly and strode into the forest.

The masked man stared at all this, dumbfounded, looking as if he had seen a ghost.

The formation diagram they had painstakingly set up was broken by Lin Yang in an instant.

When he came to his senses, he heard Lin Yang shout.

"Hey, I've already walked out of the forest."

Helpless, the masked man could only run over.

Seeing Lin Yang walk out of the forest, he said helplessly.

"You pass."

Originally intending to intimidate Lin Yang, they ended up being intimidated by him instead.

Lin Yang smiled and looked at the masked man.

"Shouldn't it be time for me to meet the sect leader?"
