However when the crowd of people prepared to expressed theirgrat.i.tude toward Xing Jue, Xing Jue suddenly fainted.
When saw this scene everyone surprised, they quickly carryXing Jue inside the room, and invited the doctor for his diagnosis andtreatment, after the doctor announced his condition, everyone finally relaxed.So, it actually because Xing Jue was too exhausted, so long as he rest for twodays, he will completely recover, it seems the battle with Yang Xuhu, itclearly consume Xing Jue enormously.
Inside Xia mansion backyard, there was hidden room, the roomsurface casted by earth stone, very hard, this treasure room was used by Xiaclan to store important goods, but now was used by Xing Jue to sleep.
At this moment outside the door of the hidden room, FourEyes anxiously moved back and forth, from time to time only speak one sentence:"How could he not come out."
"Go, call my father to come and opened the stone door." FourEyes suddenly said to the slave at outside the hidden room.
"But young master, Master Xing Jue are practicing, if we dothis it will disturb him" Said that slave with concern. Although he was onlyMartial Path master, but he understand a little about the practice, when aperson concentrated practice and then suddenly disturbed, it will createbacklash.
"You know what, I told you to go then you must go, how comeyou talked a lot of nonsense!" Four Eyes shouted with rage.
After meet with Four Eyes angry rebuke, that slave does notdare to say anything, without any option he depressingly ran toward his masterhouse.
"zhi zhi zhi zhi" not long after that slave ran, that closedstone door suddenly slowly opened.
After the stone door opened, a young man wearing a blue robecome out from the door, naturally this is Xing Jue who practice closed door.
"Did the practiced success?" After Four Eyes saw Xing Jueout, on his anxious face finally showed a relieved smiled, came at Xing Jueside grinning said.
"En, probably I already master it." Xing Jue replied withsmile.
"That"s good, let"s go, otherwise we will late." Four Eyeslook toward Imperial Wind Pavilion direction and point his finger said.

At the outer court of Imperial Wind Pavilion, there wassuper large scale outdoor plaza, at this time at the center of plaza there areseveral hundred small arenas, and outside the plaza there are over ten thousanddisciples, the reason why today so lively was, because today is the day forinner court examination that held once a year.

Besides because this humanoid puppet manufactured materialquite special, their body very powerful, therefore even if you already achieveAdvanced Rank Martial Master strength, but does not have powerful card in hand,it"s very difficult to win from them.
"Inner Court Examination, now started." Along with outercourt great elder announcement, the disciples from surrounding plaza, similarto crazy group wolf, began to rushed toward the center arenas, although theyknow that this humanoid puppet was extremely powerful, but many disciples stillwanted to try it, after all if only they pa.s.s this one test, they will have theopportunity to enter the inner court.

Inner court disciples compared with outer court disciples,even if their sentence not pleasant to hear, their relationship just like slaveand patriarch. Even if outer court elder meet inner court disciples, will alsohave smiled face to entertain them, does not dare to treat them badly.
Inner court disciples look down to this outer courtdisciples, therefore inner court disciples never come to outer court to stroll,and if outer court disciples go into inner court, don"t say if they can"t goinside, even if they considered to go, will be beaten to death.
Therefore for outer court disciples, inner court is the mostdesirable place, although it only a trace of hope, but they must try it.
When the outer disciples ran into the arena, on the arenathat humanoid puppet empty eyes instantly change into blood red, just likebloodthirsty beast, advancing toward the outer disciples who step their foot onthe arena.
The slight strong disciples not bad, however the weakdisciples were directly beaten and seriously injured, even some of them werecrippled, but even so, those disciples who haven"t get into the arena, stillwant to go up and give it a try.
Since the start inner court examination, already pa.s.sed halfof day, from this ten thousand outer court disciples, only dozen of people whosuccessfully pa.s.sed the humanoid puppet, and all of them already reached AdvancedRank Martial Master.
Furthermore there were people who already reached MartialAncestor level, it can be seen, at this outer court not only four legendarykings who already reached Martial Ancestor level, there are a lot of people whohid their own strength.
"Ha Ha, congratulations Xiao San, unexpectedly you can pa.s.sthis inner court examination."
"Yes, yes, starting today you are half Inner Court Disciple,if you really join the inner court, don"t forget us." at the outskirt of theplaza, several disciples slowly came and said with a smiled.

"Right, big brother Xing Jue and big brother Si Yan stillnot came back?" Xiao San suddenly remembered Xing Jue and all, then anxiouslyasked.
"No, I didn"t see them. They won"t have any accident,right?" And after that several disciples heard about Xiao San words, their faceanxiously said, obviously they also felt a little worried about Xing Jue andFour Eyes.
"Ha ha, brothers, elder brother came back." at this momentfrom behind them, suddenly sounded a refreshing laughter, and they lookedtoward the direction that voice came, everyone shown joy expression, shouted inunison: "Big brother Xing Jue".
"F**k, did all of you forget about me?" Suddenly Four Eyesrun over and said, he and Xing Jue were back together, but these guys onlyspoke to Xing Jue, and ignore him.
"All right, Four Eyes, it"s getting late, let"s us pa.s.s thistest first, after that let"s go back together with our brothers." Xing Juegently pat Four Eyes shoulder and said with a smile.
Four Eyes smiled and nod his head, on his face there wasconfident look.
After half of the day examination, now other than thedisciples who watch and bustling with noise and excitement, there were only afew person who crazily rushed into the arena, after all they appear too muchoverestimate their capabilities, naturally inside their heart they also realizeabout the puppet frightening strength, therefore at this moment outside thearena, only small number of people was waiting to come up for the test,compared with the morning sea of people it appear somewhat empty.
Therefore now at the plaza appeared somewhat quiet,completely not noisy like previously.
But at this quietness, there were two figures appeared atthe plaza. Looked at that two figure at the plaza, the entire plaza once againfilled with excitement.
The person who caused this great commotion, naturally at theouter court has a extremely high reputation "Xing Jue"
