The moment he stepped out of the halo, the scenery in front of Xu Han changed and he instantly arrived at a wide open space.

At this moment, only half an hour had passed since the start of Jin Zhi's trial. The rustling figures on the open space added up to less than a hundred people. This included the attendants brought by the contestants. Therefore, Xu Han's arrival inevitably attracted the attention of everyone. They sized Xu Han up and down, as if they were measuring Xu Han's strength.

"The surname is Xu!" At this moment, a cry of alarm sounded. Xu Han looked over and saw Fang Ziyu walking over with a happy expression.

Xu Han was stunned for a moment, but when he regained his senses, he smiled and said, "We should treat each other differently for three days. I didn't expect Miss Fang to have such abilities now."

Before the trials began, he had heard Yan Zhan and Chu Chouli mention that Fang Ziyu had passed the trials early and had spent about two hours in total. Although this was not comparable to the little monk's exaggerated speed of half an hour, it was still ranked in the top ten in the Copper Execution. This truly surprised Xu Han.

"That's!" Miss Fang was a character who did not know how to write the word humble. At that time, she raised her head proudly and said proudly.

"By the way, where have you been these past few days? I'm so anxious that you're only here now." At this time, Young Miss Fang seemed to have finally remembered Xu Han's departure without saying goodbye. The smile on her face suddenly collapsed at that time. She stared at Xu Han and muttered.

"Haha, wander around." Xu Han was obviously unwilling to talk to Fang Ziyu about this matter, so he laughed and wanted to perfunctorily explain it to Fang Ziyu.

How could Young Miss Fang's temperament allow him to do so?

At that time, Fang Ziyu put his hands on his hips and put on the posture of a shrew cursing the streets, wanting to say something. However, before she could finish her sentence, the corner of her eye caught a glimpse of the bell tied to Xu Han's right wrist. The girl's expression changed slightly, and she finally put away the words that had reached her mouth.

Although she had never come into contact with Zhen Yue, she had also heard Chu Chouli and the others say that this bell was something Zhen Yue had left for Xu Han. Xu Han had done something in the past month, and Fang Ziyu had no way of knowing, but it wasn't difficult to guess that these things were definitely related to Zhen Yue's death. Although Young Miss Fang usually liked to make trouble, and sometimes she even smelled a little unruly and willful, her heart was truly kind. Now that she came to her senses, she naturally wouldn't do anything to sprinkle salt on Xu Han's wound.

Seeing this series of changes in expression, Xu Han did not explain. He only smiled apologetically at Fang Ziyu and said, "It was Xu's fault. It will be easier to apologize to Miss Fang if we go back!"

"How?" Fang Ziyu asked.

"Sweet potatoes?"

"It's a deal!"

..

Afterwards, the two of them chatted for a while. Fang Ziyu told Xu Han about a series of encounters with Meng Liang after leaving Chang'an. Of course, the girl did not talk about Chen Xuanji. She only said that Chen Xuanji was not convenient for her to stay for long, so she followed Gui Subhuti to Great Xia.

Actually, Xu Han had already learned about Chen Xuanji marrying another woman from Ning Zhumang's mouth. However, since Fang Ziyu didn't mention it, he naturally wouldn't try to break it. He just quietly listened to the girl's words.

While the two of them were chatting about this, a voice suddenly sounded in their ears.

"Little monk, I heard them say that once you become a swordsman, you have to work in the Swordsmanship Pavilion for five years. What exactly does this swordsman do? Is it dangerous?"

Xu Han and Fang Ziyu subconsciously looked up, only to see that Guang Lingui and Liu Dingdang were strolling around, arriving at this place.

Xu Han had lingering fears about this little monk.

Not only was it because of his eccentricity and cultivation that was extremely incompatible with his age, but it was also because this small monk who had been clamoring to eliminate demons and demons at that time seemed to be able to draw on the demonic power that had been carefully sealed in his right arm.

Seeing him appear at this moment, Xu Han almost subconsciously covered his right arm, but the strange movement he imagined did not occur.

Xu Han saw Guang Lingui, and Guang Lingui also saw Xu Han. The two of them looked at each other and were stunned. Liu Dingdang, who was beside Guang Lingui, did not know about the previous conflict between the two sides. He looked at Xu Han strangely and asked, "Little monk? Do you know them?"

When the little monk heard this, he regained his senses. He withdrew his gaze from Xu Han and shook his head at the girl beside him. He said, "I don't know her." After saying that, she ignored the doubts in the girl's heart and pulled Duangfang away.

Xu Han and Fang Ziyu only regained their senses when the two of them walked far away.

"He's.. still vulgar?" Then, Young Miss Fang's confused voice rang out.

Xu Han looked at Fang Ziyu helplessly. The girl's jumping nerves seemed to be far from his.

At this time, more than half an hour had passed, and the open space not far from the end of the trials of the three Gold, Silver and Copper Deacons had gradually become lively.

Many people passed the trial and came to this open space. Of course, more people were eliminated in this trial. Xu Han secretly calculated. With the number of people on the field, more than half of the participants were eliminated from this round of trials. From this, it could be seen that the selection of the swordsman was strict.

Meanwhile, Xu Han's old acquaintance, Lu Houde, and the others also passed the trial. After all, the three of them came from a well-known family and had extremely good eyesight and temperament. It was not strange for them to be able to pass the trial. Originally, the three of them saw that their entire team was in a good mood, but when they saw that Xu Han seemed to have arrived here early, the smile on their faces immediately dissipated and their gazes darkened.

However, Xu Han didn't care what they were thinking at all. Instead, they quickly walked to the edge of the empty space to welcome Yan Zhan, who had appeared right after Lu Houde and the others. The three of them were now considered to be in a perfect union, so they were naturally in a good mood. Not long after, Chu Chouli and Xue Ning, who had received the news that the three of them had successfully reached the top, were also received here.

Very quickly, Nangong Jing also brought many spectators to this place. The people on the open space immediately fell silent and consciously surrounded Nangong Jing.

At that time, the golden-robed swordsman raised his head and looked at the sky. He smiled and said, "Time is up."

"Congratulations on passing the first round. Next, let's begin the second and final round."

The valiant woman clapped her hands again. Dozens of swordsmen stepped out from behind and lined up in front of them. Then, the true essence around them surged. At that moment, a dull rumble rang out. Everyone felt the ground shake. They all turned their heads and saw three huge platforms suddenly rise from the flat ground behind them.
