Chu Yang then began to recount his experience from the previous night and offered a profound self-criticism, claiming that his cultivation was still inadequate and that he could have resolved the matter with a single strike, but instead dragged it out until the third strike.

After listening, Beimingyu Xingming fell into deep silence and didn't speak for a long time.

He didn't know how to evaluate Chu Yang's performance.

Even now, as the strongest of the current Pillars, his first battle against a demon after officially becoming a Demon Slayer was fraught with danger.

In comparison, Chu Yang's battle was already quite easy.

Should I recommend him directly to participate in the final selection?

Questions began to surface in Himejima Gyomei's mind. It was somewhat astonishing that someone would participate in the final selection after only one month of training.

At this point in time, Muichiro Tokito has not yet joined the Demon Slayer Corps and is still just an ordinary person. Otherwise, considering his talent in becoming a Pillar in just two months, Gyomei Himejima wouldn't have thought that Chu Yang's talent was exaggerated.

After much consideration, Beimingyu Xingming decided to let Chu Yang participate in the final selection. Given Chu Yang's current state, the only way for him to improve further is through actual combat.

Moreover, the Demon Slayer Corps has long suffered from a very high casualty rate on the front lines and urgently needs to replenish its ranks with fresh blood. The addition of a genius like Chu Yang would undoubtedly be a shot in the arm.

"Get ready to go to Fujisaki Mountain for the final selection!" Himejima Gyoumei said firmly. "Now is the time. The sooner you become a formal member, the sooner you can kill those evil spirits."

Chu Yang nodded emphatically.

"it is good!"

Three days later, Chu Yang went to Tengxi Mountain alone to participate in the trial.

As the final selection location, Fujikasane Mountain is located in a relatively remote area, similar to the temples where people practice meditation on Himejima Island, both deep in the mountains.

However, Fujikasayama has a very distinctive feature that allows people to pinpoint its location from a great distance.

From the foot of the mountain to the halfway point.

Mount Fuji is covered with wisteria flowers, the plant that demons hate the most, all year round.

The incense made from wisteria flowers is stored in temples.

In the distance, a pale purple sea of ​​flowers surrounded the mountains. Chu Yang only needed to follow this sea of ​​flowers to find his destination.

A moment later, a stone-paved road appeared beneath Chu Yang's feet.

Continuing forward, Chu Yang climbed a stone staircase, at the end of which was a torii gate.

After passing through the torii gate, Chu Yang arrived at a platform.

There were people all around, each with a knife at their waist, except for Chu Yang who was carrying a knife on his back.

Wow! What a huge knife!

As gasps rang out, Chu Yang's appearance drew everyone's attention. People looked at Chu Yang with curiosity, but even more so at the knife behind him.

Compared to Chu Yang's horse-slaying saber, the other people's knives were as thin as matchsticks.

While they were sizing up Chu Yang, Chu Yang was also observing them. A girl wearing a mask in the crowd caught Chu Yang's attention.

It was a smiling fox mask with blue flower patterns. Chu Yang felt it looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

A moment later, the Demon Slayer Corps sent someone to explain the final selection process, which was not much different from the previous ones: survive for seven days on Mount Fujikasa.

However, even with such a simple goal, 90% of the people present will still be eliminated. Those seemingly confident teenagers will eventually die in this mountain full of purple flowers.

The explanation had just ended when some people eagerly rushed into the path devoid of wisteria blossoms. In Chu Yang's eyes, they were no different from the dead. One by one, these confident young men entered this mountain teeming with evil spirits.

After a while, only Chu Yang and the girl wearing the fox mask remained on the platform. Chu Yang glanced at her before slowly walking into the path that seemed to devour people.

Meanwhile, the girl on the other side slowly followed Chu Yang inside.

Chu Yang had no idea that the girl was following him simply because she was curious about the huge horse-slaying sword on his back.

The trial will begin in the evening.

Once everyone had gone inside, the sky gradually darkened, which was exactly the time when the ghosts could move around.

Chu Yang walked in the forest for a while without encountering any ghosts, but he became increasingly irritable because a little tagalong was following him around.

"Hey, that's enough. How long are you going to follow me?" Chu Yang turned around and said impatiently to the girl.

The girl wearing the fox mask stopped abruptly and weakly replied, "I'm sorry."

Chu Yang sighed helplessly, "Why are you following me?"

The girl said shyly, "I've never seen such a big knife before, so I was a little mesmerized."

After hearing the girl's reason, Chu Yang was speechless. If it weren't for the fact that the girl clearly didn't have any malicious intent, he would have already taken action.

Chapter 60 Don’t come over!

Realizing her mistake, the girl explained, "My name is Makomo. I mean you no harm. If you're unhappy, I can leave now."

Real wild rice?

Upon hearing the name, Chu Yang had a sudden realization and remembered the girl's identity.

The protagonist, Tanjiro Kamado, was trained by a man named Sakonji Urokodaki, who was the former Water Pillar and also Makomo's mentor.

The girl in front of him is Tanjiro's fellow disciple. According to the original story, Makomo eventually died at Fujikasane Mountain.

The Hand Demon that killed Makomo was imprisoned in this mountain by Urokodaki Sakonji himself, and therefore it hunts down Urokodaki Sakonji's disciples as revenge during each final selection.

The fox mask on his face is a mark of his status as a second disciple of Urokodaki Sakon.

"Never mind, you..."

Before Chu Yang could finish speaking, several dark figures suddenly darted out from the shadows of the forest and pounced on them.

"Human flesh! Fresh human flesh!!!"

These starving ghosts have no sense of reason whatsoever.

In their eyes, Chu Yang and Zhen Gu were two of the finest delicacies.

Zheng~zheng~

As the sound of swords being drawn rang out, Makomo immediately launched a counterattack. Although she was petite and not very strong, she was extremely fast.

A flash of light appeared in the darkness, and Chu Yang immediately heard the sound of waves. The two dark figures opposite him were instantly decapitated and turned into ashes.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining ghosts immediately turned their guns around and rushed towards Chu Yang.

"Heh, you can't even pick the easy targets, no wonder you're destined to be a ghost." Chu Yang sneered, drawing his broadsword from behind him and delivering a powerful sweeping blow.

With Chu Yang's strength combined with the weight of the horse-slaying saber, even disregarding the sharpness of the blade, a mere graze would cause injury, and a direct contact would be fatal.

Four or five dark figures were cut in half at the waist by Chu Yang's blade, their remaining half-bodies falling to the ground and howling.

Makomo was stunned!

What kind of outrageous power is this?

It's easier than cutting tofu!

Chu Yang dragged his broadsword and slowly walked towards them, beheading them one by one in order. The ghosts, tormented by the fear of death, let out extremely mournful howls that echoed through the forest for a long time.

Makomo got numb from looking at it.

How can a person be scarier than a ghost?

Can't we just give them a quick death?

Makomo felt that the boy in front of her was a little scary, so she tiptoed into the darkness and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After Chu Yang sent all the ghosts to meet the King of Hell, he looked back and found that the little girl had disappeared.

"Hey! Don't run away!" Chu Yang was worried that Makomo would run into the Hand Demon, so he quickly activated his Observation Haki to lock onto her location and chased after her.

The way Chu Yang ran wildly through the darkness with his broadsword on his back really gave off the vibe of a psychopathic killer, scaring the little girl so much that her face turned pale and she ran as fast as she could!

The two chased and fled, attracting the attention of most of the ghosts in the mountains.

Before long, a series of dark figures followed Chu Yang.

"Damn it! What are you all doing getting involved?"

Enraged at being mistaken for a pervert, Chu Yang immediately turned and charged towards the ghost horde, brandishing his broadsword to vent his frustration.

Enraged, Chu Yang rampaged through the horde of ghosts. With each sweep of his broadsword, four or five heads flew off. Not a single ghost could withstand a single blow from him!

This scene is strikingly similar to a famous Three Kingdoms IP hack-and-slash game.

In less than a minute, all the ghosts chasing Chu Yang fell under the sword, and some of the lurking figures in the darkness also disappeared in an instant.

Chu Yang ignored the onlookers and hurriedly chased after Makomo in the direction she had left. "Damn it, she runs really fast! Damn it, that guy at Hogwarts should have learned Apparition first!"

To clear the obstacles in his path, Chu Yang, running wildly, was like a bulldozer out of control. As he ran, he frantically swung his exaggeratedly large saber, cutting down everything that blocked his way.

Occasionally, some foolish ghosts would try to ambush him, but before they could even get close to Chu Yang, they were chopped into mincemeat by the horse-slaying sword in his hand.

With the added force of brute force, it was no longer a horse-slaying sword, but a high-powered cutting machine.

"Run! A crazy human has come out!"

"That guy was wielding a huge machete and he practically chopped the entire mountain bare!"
