As he watched, he saw an old man with white hair and beard staring at him at the door on the third floor.
Archie knew that this was the guarding elder who was guarding the Martial Techniques Pavilion. Even though he was nearly a hundred years old, the guarding elder were very strong.
"Thank you, Senior, for reminding me. I have my own sense of propriety." After Archie politely saluted him, he walked in.
"Hey, another arrogant disciple." Guarding elder shook his head in disappointment.
He had seen many disciples like Archie, but most of them ended in failure. They either lost their way and turned back, or they went crazy and ruined their great future.
But even so, whenever the Elder saw a new face coming, he would give a kind reminder to prevent more disciples from going astray.
Archie walked around the third floor and quickly selected a book of Martial Techniques that he liked and took it to the Elder to register.
"Are you sure you want to practice this Illusionary Palm?" Guarding elder looked at Archie doubtfully.
"Yes." Archie smiled and nodded.
"Have you read the introduction to this Martial Techniques?" Guarding elder continued to ask.
"Yes, I have seen it." Archie smiled again.
"Then you still choose it? This is the most difficult book to practice in the entire Martial Techniques pavilion." The Elder expressed confusion.
"Yes, this is exactly what I wants to practice." Archie always had a smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely firm.
"Hey, today's young people really don't know how high the sky is." The guarding elder still registered Archie, but when Archie left, he shook his head.
Guarding elder knew how difficult this Illusionary Palm was. He spent a lot of time practicing it but never succeeded.
Archie was younger than him before, and his cultivation was weaker than him. In his opinion, Archie would never be able to succeed in cultivation.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Archie was stunned. A familiar figure passed him by. It was Luka, and his expression was grim.
Archie was not familiar with him, so he didn't think much about it, but just when he was about to leave, whispers came from behind him, and he also got the reason for Luka's depression.
"Isn't that Luka? He already has Fourth Stage Martial Technique. Why is he still here to choose Martial Techniques? Could it be that the Fourth Stage Martial Technique is Kinsley's?"
"Don't you know yet? During the feast last night, the inner sect Elder reminded the two of them that the Fourth Stage Martial Technique cannot be shared and can only be practiced by one person, and they must return them as soon as possible."
"When the Elder said this, both of them were dumbfounded. In the end, they clarified in front of everyone that they were not the first in the assessment at all. There was someone else who killed forty ferocious beasts."
"There is such a thing, so why did the two of them admit it in the first place?"
"Hey, who knows, maybe it's because of face, but this time the two of them are really embarrassed."
"Indeed, but who is the number one? It seems that the outer sect has never heard of such a powerful person, right?"
"Forty ferocious beasts, including a Fourth Stage Ferocious Beast. I really can't imagine how ferocious that person is?"
After hearing this, Archie smiled and shook his head, then walked upstairs, eager to start practicing.
The fourth floor was just like the first floor, and it was also very lively. Since most of the new disciples were still choosing their Martial Techniques, the people here were all old disciples.
At a glance, it was more like a Martial Arts Arena than a floor. There were thousands of people practicing in front of the machine village, and the shouts of killing could be heard everywhere, which was quite spectacular.
But if you like peace and quiet, you can also choose a secret room to practice alone. When the stone door is closed, all interference will be isolated.
Archie did not join them, but went to the sixth floor. Like the third floor, it was relatively quiet and there were many more places for cultivation.
Archie walked into a secret room. After the stone door was closed, he first bowed to the machine pile, because he knew that next, this machine pile would be tortured by him.
The trap pile was made of dark iron wood and was extremely strong. As long as an attack was launched against it, it would automatically dodge.
Moreover, the speed of dodge would change according to the speed of the opponent's moves. Unless you had mastered Martial Techniques arts, it would be difficult to hurt it. It was the best tool for practicing Martial Techniques.
"Illusionary Palm uses the wind of the palm to exert force to control the enemy invisible."
Archie looked at the practice method of Illusionary Palm again, and then came to the machine pile.
Swish--
He suddenly took action, and his palms turned into two phantoms, slapping away at the two points of the machine pile.
Whizzing--
But at the moment when it was about to hit, the machine pole swayed from side to side and dodged Archie's attack like lightning.
Seeing this, Archie couldn't help but smile and said, "It's a bit interesting."
From that day on, apart from eating and sleeping, Archie would stay in this Martial Techniques pavilion every day and practice non-stop.
The Thunder Three Styles were created by the Ancestor of Green Dragon Sect. Although they were extremely mysterious, they were very difficult to practice.
There was a reason why Illusionary Palm was called the most difficult martial Martial Techniques in the Martial Techniques Pavilion by the guarding elder.
However, after a period of practice, Archie gradually understood the characteristics of the two Martial Techniques.
The Thunder Three Styles were extremely fierce, as fast as thunder, and as strong as thunder. Every move and every move could kill the enemy. They were domineering and direct.
Illusionary Palm was the complete opposite, alternating between virtual and real, catching people off guard.
Although not as powerful as the Thunder Three Styles, they were still very impressive and had different mysteries.
After ten days of training without sleep or food, Archie finally mastered two Martial Techniques.
Illusionary Palm, not to mention master it, was almost the same, but for the Thunder Three Styles, he had only mastered the second one.
But even so, when Archie successfully displayed the second move, he was shocked by its powerful power.
On the third floor of the Martial Techniques Pavilion, it was still the guarding elder. Archie was returning the Illusionary Palm.
"How's it going? Have you find it difficult?" The Elder looked at Archie sarcastically, with pride on his lips.
Archie did not answer, but smiled casually, but in the eyes of the Elder, Archie's smile was equivalent to acquiescence.
"You'd better go to the first floor and start with a First Stage Martial Technique." Withdrawing the Martial Techniques, the Elder reminded him kindly.
"Thank you, Elder." After Archie saluted, he said goodbye and left.
"Retreating when faced with difficulties is a sign of some understanding." Looking at Archie's leaving figure, the guarding elder nodded.
The Martial Techniques pavilion was not open day and night. Whenever the sun set, the Martial Techniques pavilion would be closed. At this time, all the guarding elder must check the Martial Techniques and mechanism piles.
"Elder Oakley, you must take a look at this. It's been a long time since I've seen such a powerful disciple."
"What's all the fuss need I to see it myself."
On the stairs, a middle-aged man was guiding a white-haired old man to a secret room on the sixth floor.
In the secret room, an indestructible machine pile was covered with scars and almost useless.
Seeing the trap pile, the white-haired Elder's expression became extremely solemn, and he stepped forward to look at it carefully.
"This is..." But when he discovered the slightly sunken palm prints, he couldn't help but be shocked.
With his old experience, he could tell at a glance that this mechanism stake was injured by the Illusionary Palm, but in the entire inner sect, there were almost no disciples who could practice the Illusionary Palm to this level.
After thinking hard for a long time, the Elder face suddenly changed. Not only were his eyes full of shock, but his voice was trembling:
"Is it him?!"
