chapter 2 challenge

The silvery white dawn gradually turned to brownish red, and the morning glow reflected over the entire stone city.

In front of the Mormont family's door, a large number of figures gathered early in the morning, and the low-pitched discussions turned into a lively and noisy noise. Today is the day when the Mormont family recruits guards. People who are interested in participating have already lined up in front of the ring. Everyone is gearing up and eager to try.

Even those who are unable to attend take this opportunity to see the excitement and broaden their horizons. After all, such lively events are rare to see.

In front of the gate the Mormont family, many people from the Mormont family also came out, and there were many guards around. However, in this lively scene, no one dared to cause trouble.

"Isn't that the stupid young master from the Mormont family who acted stupidly on that barren mountain again?"

"The stone tablet seems to be missing. It's strange."

Among the dense crowd of onlookers outside the Mormont family, many people were looking at the barren mountain in front of the side door the Mormont family. A young man in purple robe was tinkering with something on the barren mountain. No need to guess, everyone in Shicheng knew that this person was probably someone other than Du. There will be no one else besides the idiot young master at the Mormont family.

In the past ten years, the name and anecdotes of the idiot young master Gene Mormont have long been known to everyone in private. It has become a household name and is a topic that has to be mentioned after tea and dinner in Shicheng.

Speaking of Gene Mormont, as the young master of the Mormont family, he can definitely be regarded as a proud person in this stone city. However, when Gene Mormont tested his martial arts veins when he was six years old, he found that he had a useless vein and could not practice martial arts at all.

In this world where martial arts are prosperous and martial arts is respected, the consequences of being unable to practice martial arts can be imagined. Originally, relying on the Mormont family's current prestige and power in Shicheng, a young master of the Mormont family, even if he was unable to practice martial arts and had no status in the clan, could at least live a decent life.

But misfortunes never come singly. On the day when the pulse test was performed, the young master of the Mormont family was upset for a moment. In the violent storm, he somehow ran to the stone monument on the barren mountain in the dead place. As a result, a bolt of lightning struck the stone monument. The stone tablet was fine, but the poor young master of the Mormont family suffered a terrible disaster. He only woke up three days after being struck by lightning.

From then on, the young master often ran to the stone monument. He stood for several hours at first, and then the time gradually became longer and longer. His eyes were dull and strange, and sometimes he even danced in front of the stone monument.

In the beginning, there were people from the Mormont family trying to take care of it and looking for people to treat it, but to no avail. So after a long time, the Mormont family had no choice but to give up.

In the past ten years, the name of this fool has quietly spread from the Mormont family to the entire Shicheng. Everyone knows that there is a fool among the young masters of the Mormont family.

"If all the descendants of the Mormont family were like him, today would be much easier."

A burly man with stubble on his face, slightly dark skin, looked at a figure on the barren mountain in the distance and whispered softly.

"The juniors of the Mormont family are coming out."

"It is said that Du Yu and Abbyabbie Mormont , the younger members of the Mormont family , are extremely powerful this time. They have the talent of fifth-grade martial arts and acquired the sixth-level level at the age of fourteen. It is very likely that they will set foot in the Xiantian realm at the age of seventeen or eighteen. The Xiantian realm is unique among ten thousand."

As more than a dozen extraordinary boys and girls stepped out from the gate of the Mormont family family and walked onto the ring, they all stood neatly. Although they were young, they were already extraordinary, causing a brief silence in front of the noisy ring, and one after another. All eyes fell on the dozen boys and girls.

Jorah Mormont walked onto the ring, faced the crowds of onlookers around the ring, and said, "The recruitment of guards begins now. Those who are undefeated in three moves can become the guards of my the Mormont family."

"Buzz!"

A low bell rang, and the recruitment of guards officially began. The big men who had already lined up jumped onto the ring one after another and fought with the boys and girls.

"Clang!"

"Bang bang!"

All of a sudden, the weapons were touching each other on the ring, and the sound of fists and palms clashing could be heard from time to time. Coupled with the shouts and cheers from the surroundings, the lively and noisy sound could be heard in the distance.

All eyes were attracted to the arena, and no one paid attention to the young figure on the barren mountain.

"Why did the stone tablet break? There should be a second one after the first one."

On the barren mountain, Gene Mormont was rummaging around in a pile of gravel powder, raising a large amount of dust. The purple robe that was still somewhat presentable on his body was already covered by dust. He murmured softly in his mouth. His face was covered with dust, but he looked like he was originally The extremely white and neat teeth are getting whiter and cleaner.

"Forget it, it seems that there really is no second form here."

Gene Mormont walked out from the rubble, patted his robe with both hands, and was filled with dust. On his resolute and determined face, his eyes were bright and deep, with a faint twinkle of brilliance. His appearance at this moment did not look like a fool with a reputation all over the city.

"boom."

The handprints condensed, and a yellow air flow surged out from Gene Mormont's palm. His purple robe shook, causing the air waves in the surrounding space to fluctuate, as if the air flow was going to be shattered, and the whole person also felt an extra sense for no reason. With an inexplicable domineering aura, "If you successfully practice this first move, your martial arts should be around the second level of others."

Feeling the changes in his body after comprehending the first move on the stone tablet in the past ten years, Gene Mormont showed a satisfied smile on his face. The mysterious first move on the stone tablet was born to be prepared for those with broken veins, and it turned out to be able to repair martial veins. , which allows those with useless martial arts to practice.

The dense cracks on the stone tablet are related to the repair of martial veins. After all, he was born in a martial arts family, and Gene Mormont felt that the martial arts level on his body at this time should be similar to other people's second-grade martial arts.

However, Gene Mormont also found that the level of martial arts on his body seemed to be a bit special at this time. Although it was similar to other people's second-grade martial arts, it was obviously not comparable to the level of ordinary second-grade martial arts.

After practicing the first form, the martial arts can be repaired to be almost the same as other people's second-grade martial arts. If the second and third forms can be found in the future, how far the martial arts can reach in the future makes Gene Mormont feel very sad. expect.

"At least, I can practice in the future, but I have to find a way to get rid of this fool's reputation."

Gene Mormont closed his hand seals, and the mysterious energy slowly disappeared into his palms. His eyes showed a smile. He was a famous fool in the entire Shicheng. Over the years, everyone had really regarded him as a fool.

Gene Mormont never cared about the reputation of a fool in these years, and was even happy to see others really think that he was a fool. Only in this way would he not be disturbed by others when he was comprehending in front of the stone tablet.

But now I have achieved some success. A fool is on the road to martial arts, but he cannot get the support of resources from the clan, and now the resources are exactly what he needs. Besides, being treated as a fool every day is not a good thing. Gene Mormont felt that he should slowly get back what he had lost in ten years.

"Bang bang!"

On the ring in front of the Mormont family family, a dozen young girls of the Mormont family, aged thirteen or fourteen, either with bare hands or holding swords, were fighting with a dozen big men.

Although these dozen the Mormont family family descendants were young, they seemed to be able to defeat the big men who jumped onto the ring with almost one or two moves, which caused many people around them to defeat them. The onlookers were secretly surprised and became more and more in awe of the Mormont family.

"Isn't it just a matter of countering three moves? Let's fight hard."

"I must become the Mormont family's guard this time, work hard."

The big men became more and more excited when they saw how powerful the Mormont family's boys and girls were. If they entered the Mormont family and were lucky enough to practice one and a half of the Mormont family's moves, wouldn't they be awesome?

It's just that among those big men who rushed forward excitedly, there were only a few who could sustain three moves without defeat. In less than an hour, a full two to three hundred people were eager to cross the ring, but each and every one of them was constantly thrown to the ground. After entering the ring, the dozen boys and girls were also panting, and they probably had almost exhausted their energy.

In the end, there were twenty people who could barely sustain the three moves. Many of them were injured, but those who were able to stay in the ring were all excited and excited.

Everyone's eyes were on the ring, and no one would notice Gene Mormont as he walked down the barren mountain.

Gene Mormont squeezed into the crowd and watched the excitement. He looked at the moves of his cousins ​​on the stage. Sometimes he would frown slightly, as if he was thinking about something, and then he would put his hands in his long sleeves and move slightly. Variety.

"Why are these the Mormont family's martial arts so full of flaws? Could it be that I'm overthinking them."

He murmured softly, and in the crowd, Gene Mormont face became more and more confused. He had also seen people in the family practicing martial arts before, and at that time he couldn't understand it at all. Later, as he understood the style on the stone tablet, he became more and more confused about the Mormont family. Martial arts, I feel like I can understand something.

But now, when Gene Mormont looks at the martial arts of those families, he clearly feels that there are many loopholes, many of which are full of flaws.

"Stop, the twenty places have been filled, and the recruitment is over."

When the last lean man sustained the third move at the cost of a mouthful of blood, Jorah Mormont from the corner of the ring stepped forward, looked at the man who had sustained the three moves and said, "Congratulations to you all. In the future, I will join the Mormont family Guard Group, and those who are injured will go to the Mormont family Family Medical Center for free treatment."

"Thank you, Vice Commander."

The twenty big men nodded happily. As the guards of the Mormont family, this treatment was different.

"Hey, the quota is full. I came today for nothing."

"The people of the Mormont family are really strong, they are so strong at such a young age!"

As Jorah Mormont announced the end, many men who had been waiting to take the stage regretted it. If they had known better, they would have come earlier and queued up to wait to take the stage. The lively crowd was also preparing to disperse amid excited discussions.

More than a dozen descendants of the Mormont family are also planning to leave. For them, today is just a preliminary trial. It is different from the normal competition among the clan.

"Please slow down."

At this moment, among the twenty men who supported the three moves, a burly man with stubble, slightly dark skin, and a tall body took a step forward, his expression darkened slightly, and then he looked at Jorah Mormont, He plucked up the courage and said, "Deputy Commander, can you become the guard captain as long as you defeat or tie any of the Du family's juniors?"
