Day after day passed, and the Clan's Sword Testing Assembly finally arrived.

The huge stadium was surrounded by people, and everyone was excitedly discussing who would win first place in this year's Trial. Some smart people even set up a bet, and most people bet that Li Jie would become the first in the outer hall, which would eventually be sucked into the inner hall.

Suddenly, a skinny boy in black clothing entered her line of sight. The girl's forehead showed a hint of happiness, and when she wanted to run over, she suddenly thought of something and stopped in her tracks. She silently clenched her fists, and stood there looking at the boy's nonchalant appearance.

Just as Li Chen was planning to enter the auction house, he accidentally saw a familiar figure in the crowd. Amidst the commotion, the young lady was dressed in a yellow dress and stood there like a spring flower.

As if having been noticed, the young girl turned around in a sorry state and was about to leave.

"Li ?" "Lu?" Li Chen hurriedly called out to his little sister, but because he hadn't seen her for a long time, his voice sounded a little strange.

Li Lou stood still, and watched as Li Chen got closer and closer to him. He was so nervous that he didn't know what to say.

"Why are you here?" Li Chen unconsciously slowed his tone.

"I was just passing by!" Li Lou replied loudly, the evasive look in her eyes revealing the guilt in her heart. What kind of passing, this place was thousands of miles away from her own home, no matter how she walked, she would never pass this place. It was just that her brows were cold for years, making her not know how to voice out her concern.

Li Chen's lips curled up, his mood became much better. He looked at the little sister and said: "Since you are just passing by, then don't leave later, wait for big brother to finish his competition and we will go back together!"

When the two words "big brother" came out of his mouth, even Li Chen felt a little nostalgic. It had been a very long time since he last spoke to Li Lou like this ?

Li Lou neither responded nor denied directly, but someone at the side saw Li Chen and laughed mockingly, "Hey! Isn't that our family's trash, Li Chen! Why are you here to participate in this sword test as well! "

"You're not allowed to say that my brother is trash!" Before Li Chen could say anything, Li Lou shouted at the person beside her as if she was a tigress protecting her cub.

That person was shaken by the roar of Li Lou, and then immediately said disdainfully, "Trash is trash! Could it be that if they don't say it, then they won't be trash! "

"You!" Li Lou was so angry that her eyes were red. She wanted to curse at the man, but she felt a warm power coming from her hands, she looked down to see Li Chen's hand holding her own hand tightly. She raised her head to look at Li Chen, only to see Li Chen staring coldly at her: "Why do you need to lower yourself to a group of wild dogs! Let's go! "

Li Lou seemed to have calmed down a lot. She glared at the person who spoke and followed Li Chen.

After walking for a while, Li Chen found a quiet place and pressed Li Lou onto the seat: "Don't be angry, if you're angry you'll get ugly, and if you get ugly you won't be the little princess anymore ?"

The words that sounded like they were teasing a child made Li Lou laugh involuntarily. "I have already grown up, why would I need you to coax me like a child?" There was a time when Li Chen, who was standing in front of her, was holding her in his hands in such a manner. And when had she become an enemy to him that he was unfamiliar with?

Li Chen caressed Li Lou's hair and laughed: "Idiot, in my eyes, you will forever be a child ?"

At this point, the Trial is already beginning to read out the names of the participants. Li Chen paused before continuing, "I'll be going to the arena first. Be obedient and wait for me here."

Li Lou looked at Li Chen, and then said in a small voice: "Mn, I'll wait for you ?"

"Li Chen!"

This time, when he just happened to read Li Chen's name, Li Chen responded as he slowly walked onto the stage.

The number of participants in this year's outer hall's Sword Testing Meeting was a total of twenty people. Only those who had achieved first place would have the qualification to enter the inner hall and enter the inner hall, which was considered one of the recognized martial artists in the family. This was the opportunity that many of the youths wanted.

On the stage, Li Jie watched as Li Chen walked step by step towards him. His eyes were filled with killing intent as he said to Li Chen, "I advise my cousin to leave this place as soon as possible! Otherwise, the blades will have no eyes, and if I accidentally hurt my cousin, it would not be good! "

Li Chen retorted in disdain, "All you can do is talk."

Li Ji was enraged, and was about to say something, but then he heard Li Chen say: "But you did remind me, blades and swords have no eyes, when I meet my cousin, I will not be lenient!"

Just as Li Ji was about to speak, he heard the elder who presided over this Sword Testing Meeting call for him.

One of the women wore a veil on her face and beside her stood a handsome young man who seemed to be around sixteen or seventeen years old. He said to the young girl with a bit of boredom, "The Li family's outer hall's Sword Testing Competition is really not interesting. If nothing goes wrong, this year will be the outer hall's Li jie."

The young girl pursed her lips and smiled, but she didn't comment in her heart. She didn't know that after searching all over the Li family inner hall, this guy was hiding in the outer hall. If she didn't look for him in the outer hall, she might have missed this good show.

"Speaking of which, why are you so interested in the External Clan?"

The young lady wearing a veil was the Ning Family Princess, Ning Caifu, and the man beside her was the second strongest in the Li Family, Li Cheng. Li Cheng and Li Chen had a one-tone difference, which was why Ning Caifu had found the wrong person, but this was also why he had formed an unbreakable bond with Li Cheng.

Ning Caifu laughed: "I'm just curious because I've never seen it before. If you're bored, then you can leave."

Li Cheng shook his head and said, "I said that I would accompany you to come here. Naturally, I want to accompany you to read it all."

The twenty people on the training field had already started drawing lots. The rules of this competition was that twenty people would be divided into ten groups, with each two people being in the same group.

After drawing the lots, Li Chen looked at the number in his hands. # 10, he really hoped that he could match Li Jie in the first match.

"Li Tang, Li Chen, number 10!"

Li Chen looked at the person who was also called out, he was a seventeen to eighteen year old teenager, he was tall and thin, and when he saw Li Chen looking at him, he smiled at him to show his friendliness.

Li Chen did not have much of an impression of this person, there were a lot of people in the outer hall of the clan, it was not enough for them to not know each other, but Li Chen was a special existence, there were many people who did not know him, this young man seemed to be someone who focused on cultivation and did not know anything.

He just didn't know how strong this young man was.

The match had already begun. The two of them bowed to each other and then began to test each other out.

Most of those who had not entered the Inner Palace at the age of seventeen or eighteen were people with low talent. Li Chen sighed as his gaze shifted to Li Jie, who was facing him. Li Ji's opponent seemed to not have much strength, and after a few rounds, he was defeated.

Looking back at Li Lou, who was below the stage with eyes filled with expectation, Li Chen shook his head. He had to wash away his shame today, then looked at the youth in front of him, and said softly: "Sorry!"

Before Li Tang could understand what Li Chen meant, he saw the young man's finger suddenly contain white spirit energy. Then he saw the young man's speed suddenly increase, and with lightning speed, he struck his own chest.

Li Tang's body immediately flew out of the arena.

The audience suddenly fell silent, and most of the people's gazes fell upon Li Ji. They were all shocked by this sudden action, and as they looked at the black-clothed youth, they suddenly couldn't help but let out a sound as if someone had pressed down a button, and then burst into heated discussion.

"Who is that young man?" How did you win so quickly? "

"You don't even know the trash Li Chen of the Outer Hall?! "How ignorant!"

"Trash Li Chen? You said that the person who punched him out of the arena was trash? If he's trash, then what are we? "

"How is this possible!?" He was clearly a piece of trash! Have you forgotten that in the test not long ago, there was a broken bridge?! "

"..."

He suspiciously looked at Ning Caifu, only to see a hint of pleasant surprise suddenly appearing in the girl's usually cold eyes. He suddenly thought back to the first time he had met the girl, and at that time, he suddenly received an invitation from Ning Caifu, saying that he had something to discuss with him, and upon meeting him, Ning Caifu's face was obviously disappointed. Could it be, this Li Chen was actually the person Ning Caifu was really looking for?

Ning Caifu was truly happy in her heart, she looked at the upright young man on the stage, and listened to the referee adjudicating the youth to enter the next round, and the excitement in her heart was no less than the time she had become a azygos!

She took a deep breath. She knew it all, how could that youth be a piece of trash! The person who could shatter brown bear with a single palm ? How could he be a piece of trash!?

On the stage, Li Lou covered her mouth in shock, she never thought that her brother would be so powerful.

"Bam!"

His opponent had also been kicked off the trial platform by Li Jie. However, compared to the shock that Li Chen brought to the audience, everyone's reaction towards Li Jie was much smaller.

Li Jie provocatively looked at Li Chen and saw the corners of Li Chen's mouth raised, it looked as though he was ridiculing Li Chen, Li Ji's expression suddenly became gloomy, and even the joy of victory could not hide his anger.

The first round of the competition had ended. According to the results of the competition, there were five contestants who had advanced, one of them would draw a blank lot, and the person who drew the lot would not even need to fight, but would directly enter the next round and would have the qualification to fight for the top three.

The person who drew the lot was undoubtedly lucky, but even if they were lucky, no one would think that it was unfair. This was because before the match, there was a rule that stated that luck was also a part of one's strength.

It was a pity that Li Chen and Li Cha were not the lucky one.
