In the gazebo, the night breeze is blowing.
Huang Pingzhang made tea and had a long talk with Gu Chen.
"The old man is a member of the Heavenly Court and has been in the Heavenly Court for nearly twenty years."
As Gu Chen listened, some basic information about the three major forces that he had previously learned flashed through his mind.
Heavenly Court is the most mysterious of the three major dark forces in the mainland. Compared with the other two major forces, its members are much smaller, but when it comes to influence, it is not bad at all.
"Although the old man is a member of the Heavenly Court, he is just a bronze killer who can enter the Heavenly Gate, and cannot directly agree to you joining the Heavenly Court."
"Recently, Heavenly Court just lost a large number of manpower in West Desert and is recruiting again. This old man can recommend you to participate in the assessment."
Huang Pingzhang's words made Gu Chen look happy, but he changed the subject.
"You have to think about it. Heavenly Court is an organization that pays great attention to secrecy. If you fail to pass the assessment, there is only one ending, and that is death!"
Gu Chen's expression didn't change. "I don't know how to evaluate it specifically?"
"There has never been a unified standard for the assessment of members of the Heavenly Court, and the decision is made by the gold killer who is in charge. But the assessment has always been strict, and the pass rate is less than 10%." Huang Pingzhang said.
Gu Chen frowned, "You also participated in the assessment back then, right? Do you have any advice for me?"
Huang Pingzhang pondered for a moment. "According to my experience, if you want to pass the assessment, the most important thing is not your cultivation, but your quality as a killer."
"Quality?" Gu Chen was thoughtful.
"Yes, what level of cultivation do you think you need to join the Heavenly Court?" Huang Pingzhang asked.
"At least it must be in the magical realm." Gu Chen replied casually.
"Normally, that's right, but in the history of the Heavenly Court, there are quite a few people who joined the Heavenly Court in the physical state, and even great monks in the Nirvana state, some people are not even qualified to become bronze killers."
"That much difference?" Gu Chen was surprised.
"The biggest reason for this lies in quality. Whether a person has the quality to become a member of the Heavenly Court is determined by the examiner. Quality is hard to say, but if you have a skill that is conducive to the killer's actions, the success rate of passing the assessment It's very high."
"You can understand it this way. People who master these skills are considered to have killer qualities."
"What skills are included?" Gu Chen asked curiously.
"Sneaking supernatural powers, one-hit-kill swordsmanship, speed of coming and going without a trace, and even the ability to calmly analyze any danger, these are all considered."
Gu Chen understood, "Then Mr. Huang, what kind of killer quality do you possess?"
"Archery skills! This old man's archery skills are considered top-notch among the bronze killers in Heaven, followed by marksmanship, which is barely second-rate. The more killer qualities you have, the more likely you are to pass the test."
As a killer, it is extremely popular to have a perfect archery technique, which is extremely beneficial to assassination operations.
Gu Chen understood, and said with a smile. "In the eyes of Mr. Huang, do I have the quality of a killer?"
"You..." Huang Pingzhang's old eyes showed a complex look, "To be honest, you are definitely a genius. With such strength at such a young age, you have a bright future in many sects of practice. I can't understand why you I want to live a life of licking blood on the edge of a knife."
"Your Nether Body Technique and Breath Containment Technique are good, both are in line with the qualities of a killer, but they are all the symbols of the Underworld Palace. If you use them in the assessment of the Heavenly Court, you may be regarded as a spy of the Underworld Palace Erase on the spot."
"In addition, your swordsmanship is also very powerful, but it is easy to be recognized when using an epee. Heavenly Court selects members, and it is more inclined to those who can perfectly cover themselves on weekdays and live under a dual identity."
Gu Chen rubbed his chin, "That means I don't quite meet the requirements of Heavenly Court? Even if I beat everyone else in the assessment, I might not be able to get in?"
Huang Pingzhang shook his head, "No, the old man thinks that you have all the qualities to be a killer in heaven. I can see your character, your calmness and wisdom."
"It's difficult to see things like xinxing in the assessment, right? After all, people can pretend, and the examiners don't just use it as the assessment standard."
Gu Chen frowned, joining the Heavenly Court meant a lot to him, and he wanted to make sure he could join it no matter what.
He pondered for a moment and asked. "If you recommend me, when will the assessment start at the latest?"
"The next assessment is scheduled for two weeks later, and you have at most two weeks." Huang Pingzhang said.
"Two weeks, that should be enough."
Gu Chen nodded, "Old Man Huang, can you teach me your archery skills? Of course, I will give you enough in return."
"You want to learn archery?" Huang Pingzhang blurted out in surprise. "Although it is said that having a superb archery skill can greatly increase the success rate of passing the examination, learning archery is not that simple. Do you have the foundation before?"
Gu Chen shook his head.
Huang Pingzhang was speechless, dare this kid think that his super-high archery can be practiced in a short period of time?
That is the result of his hard work for ten years!
"Chen Daoyou, you should think of another way."
He bluntly said that it is impossible to learn his archery in two weeks!
"I heard from Miss Huang that Mr. Huang wants the Nine Yin Stone in my hand, right?"
Gu Chen didn't explain, and asked indifferently.
Huang Pingzhang's pupils shrank immediately, and his expression became serious.
"Fellow Daoist Chen didn't mention this matter, and I plan to tell you. The Nine Yin Stone is extremely important to this old man, and I hope that fellow Daoist Chen can make a price, and this old man is willing to buy it at a high price."
Gu Chen shook his head. "I'm not short of money, as long as you teach me all about archery, I'll give you three Jiuyin stones."
Archery is Huang Pingzhang's housekeeping skill. It stands to reason that he would not teach it casually, but Gu Chen can only try to talk about it.
No matter what, he wanted to increase the success rate of passing the heavenly assessment, and archery was a shortcut to him.
"Three yuan? The old man heard that Chen Daoyou has a whole bag."
Huang Pingzhang's eyes flickered.
Archery is a thing that pays great attention to talent and the length of hard training. He didn't teach Gu Chen before because he thought it would be impossible for him to practice it in two weeks, and it was a waste of time.
But since he offered what he desperately needed, it was really hard for him to refuse.
"Then I'll give you five yuan at most, no more."
"Okay, deal!"
Upon hearing this, Huang Pingzhang immediately agreed, with a joyful expression on his face.
"By the way, there is one more thing that needs to be explained to Mr. Huang."
Seeing that the two sides reached an agreement, Gu Chen added. "Now that I have helped the Huang family to unify the Greedy Wolf City, the Huang family has benefited a lot, and my monthly salary has to be tripled."
"Three times? Your original monthly salary is much higher than that of other families, right?"
Huang Pingzhang's eyes widened. Even he, the old head of the Huang family, could not get this kind of treatment.
"Because I'm worth the price."
Gu Chen said confidently.
Huang Pingzhang was speechless, he just wanted to say that the five Jiuyin stones were a profit, but he didn't expect this kid to get it back so soon, he really didn't lose at all.
But the other party's help to the Huang family was indeed worth the price, and he also wanted to repair the relationship damaged by the previous sneak attack on Gu Chen, so he gritted his teeth.
"Okay, do as you say."
"The old man will teach you archery starting tomorrow. I hope we can cooperate happily."
"Pleasant cooperation."
