Chapter 40: Four Stages of Advancement
The outer courtyard of Linghe Gate!
Inside the house!

"In Linghe Sect, the assessment for promotion to inner disciples is held once a month, and the assessment is arranged uniformly!"

"The assessment includes martial arts training. You need to reach the third level of external fascia training before you reach the age of twenty. This is the most basic requirement. Junior Brother Yang Xuan, you have already achieved this. There is no problem!"

"But this is only the most basic condition. There are also disciples in the outer courtyard who have reached the third level of the fascia realm in martial arts cultivation, but have not passed the assessment for inner disciples. Some of them will even continue to improve their martial arts cultivation to the middle level of the fascia realm before taking the assessment again!"

Yang Zixuan informed Yang Xuan of the contents of the assessment for inner disciples. This was a letter sent to him by the patriarch Yang Fenghua. As for the general situation, he also learned about it from Yang Tianyu.

After all, the letter was delivered by Yang Tianyu himself.

"Brother, I understand!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Xuan nodded seriously.

He improved his martial arts by using his talent of transforming mortals into gods, so he directly reached the peak of the second level of external training, skipping the three small levels of early, middle and late stages, and directly reached the peak. It was also due to his own efforts, plus my talent as a medicine god, that he was promoted to the early stage of the third level of external training.

Of course, this is also the limit of the perfect level of Songhe Fist, which is why his martial arts training can only reach one level. If he can cultivate a stronger martial art, like the Songhe Wanshou Fist he has been thinking about, then he will be able to directly reach the fourth level of external training!

Yang Tianyu was also listening attentively. Although he knew something about the assessment of Linghe Sect's inner disciples, he didn't know the details.

And if he wants to become an inner disciple, he can only pass the inner disciple assessment and be promoted to an inner disciple like Yang Xuan!
"After the martial arts cultivation requirements are met, one must also practice a martial art to the level of proficiency, because Linghe Sect has requirements for inner disciples. Linghe Sect attaches great importance to both techniques and martial arts!"

"Among them, the Songhe Fist that one practices also needs to be practiced to the proficient level. Although this is not explicitly stated, it is a tacit requirement. Under normal circumstances, if one does not rely on the power of a large amount of elixirs to improve martial arts cultivation, the Songhe Fist is also practiced to the proficient level."

"Junior Brother Yang Xuan, you have no problem with this, but Junior Brother Yang Tianyu, you still need to work hard. Your Songhequan is still at the minor success stage. Although it is not far from the mastery level, you still need to pay attention to the practice of Songhequan!"

"Among the disciples of Linghe Sect, the basic training method is Songhe Fist. After successful training, it will be helpful for you to switch to Songhe Wanshou Fist. I believe you know this in your family, so I won't elaborate on it!"

Yang Zixuan glanced at Yang Xuan, then turned his gaze to Yang Tianyu and reminded him.

His martial arts training has reached the peak level of the second level of fascia in external training, and he has also practiced Songhe Fist to the mastery level. Among the outer courtyard disciples, this progress of training is not considered high, and he has the potential to become an inner courtyard disciple.

But compared to Yang Xuan, he is still a little worse. He knew from Yang Tianyu that Yang Xuan had practiced Songhe Fist to perfection and was a person with extremely high talent in martial arts!
Therefore, after receiving the letter from the head of the family, Yang Fenghua, in addition to considering the family's interests, he was also optimistic about Yang Xuan's potential, so he came to explain to Yang Xuan in detail the assessment requirements for inner disciples!

Upon hearing this, Yang Xuan nodded seriously to show that he understood.

"Brother Zixuan, don't worry, I will definitely master Songhequan within this year!"

"I won't neglect my martial arts training!"

Yang Tianyu promised.

His martial arts talent is outstanding among the Yang family, so he is naturally confident that he can achieve this!
After all, his goal was to become an inner disciple of Linghe Sect, rather than staying in the outer courtyard for a while and then returning to the Yang family in disgrace. This was different from his plan.

"In addition, the third point is the actual combat test!"

"Linghe Sect values ​​actual combat ability. If one's skills and martial arts have reached the requirements of Linghe Sect, it means one has good martial arts talent. However, if one's actual combat ability is not good, one still cannot become an inner disciple of Linghe Sect!"

"Then someone from the Assessment Office will arrange for someone to take the assessment, and the people taking the assessment will basically be inner disciples!"

Yang Zixuan said this and paused.

The actual combat assessment is very difficult, especially when facing someone who is stronger than you.

"Are you going to defeat the inner disciples?" Yang Tianyu asked hurriedly after hearing this.

If I defeat the inner disciples, the difficulty of the assessment will be too high.

After all, the inner disciples who entered the inner courtyard first will definitely have a great improvement in their martial arts skills with the help of many training resources in the inner courtyard, and will widen the gap with the outer courtyard disciples!

In this situation, the outer disciple defeated the inner disciple, and few people could do this.

"It's not necessary to defeat the inner disciples. You just need to hold out for twenty moves against them!"

"Inner disciples must use their full strength for twenty moves. Therefore, some outer disciples will practice light body techniques or defensive techniques during the assessment. If they can hold out for these twenty moves, they will pass!"

Yang Zixuan shook his head and explained.

If the difficulty reaches that level, there will be even fewer inner disciples in Linghe Sect.

After all, to be able to achieve this, he is undoubtedly a genius among geniuses.

He glanced at Yang Xuan and felt that Yang Xuan might be able to achieve this, but he would need to practice in the outer courtyard for a period of time.

After all, in his eyes, although Yang Xuan’s martial arts talent was outstanding, it was not enough!

He still needs to settle down a bit before he can reach the level of an inner disciple and have the possibility of defeating him!

"Twenty moves, that's easy, otherwise defeating the inner disciples would be too difficult!"

Yang Tianyu said with a look of relief upon hearing this.

If it were as difficult as defeating an inner disciple, he would doubt whether he would have a chance to become an inner disciple of Linghe Sect!

"In addition, there is a fourth and final point!"

"Blood gas test!"

"Those who practice martial arts will see blood, and this is especially true for the inner disciples of Linghe Sect!"

"After passing the first three levels of assessment, a beast with the initial combat power of triple fascia will be arranged. As long as you kill that beast, you will pass the inner disciple assessment and become an inner disciple of Linghe Sect!"

"These four levels of assessment are also known as the four levels of promotion to the inner courtyard, the four levels for promotion from the outer courtyard to the inner courtyard!"

"This last level is also the most dangerous. When fighting with the monsters, you may be injured or even killed by them!"

"This kind of thing has happened before!"

"So some disciples in the outer courtyard who have reached the requirements for the inner disciples' assessment are not in a hurry to take the inner disciples' assessment, but continue to improve their martial arts skills!"

"After all, before the age of twenty, one is qualified to become an inner disciple of Linghe Sect!"

Yang Zixuan looked at Yang Xuan and said this specifically, this was also a kind reminder.

He did not doubt Yang Xuan's talent in martial arts, but no matter how high his talent in martial arts was, it would be useless if he lacked strength.

After all, Linghe Sect’s inner disciple assessment is a relatively comprehensive assessment. Everyone who passes the inner disciple assessment is a leader among his peers and an elite figure of Linghe Sect!
