Shaolin.
The number one sect in the current martial arts world.
There had always been a saying that " all martial arts in the world originated from Shaolin."
The Shaolin Monastery in this world had more than 100,000 disciples, and experts were as numerous as the clouds.
The Arhat Hall had a formation specifically designed to test the martial arts of its disciples, the Bronze Statue Formation.
All Shaolin disciples could go to the Bronze Men Array to test their martial arts cultivation.
For some unknown reason, the Bronze Statue test was anonymous.
The person being tested did not need to reveal their identity. They could even wear a special mask.
That was why Zhang Junbao dared to test his kung fu.
Otherwise, as a secular servant disciple, he did not have the qualifications to learn martial arts at all. How could he dare to come to the test and expose that he knew martial arts?
Zhang Junbao found a mask and put it on before walking into the testing courtyard.
The first thing to enter the academy was the basic qualification test. Only those who passed the qualification test could challenge the Bronze Statue Array.
There were more than ten stone locks on the ground.
The weight of these stone locks ranged from 100 to 3,000 jin.
Only by lifting a stone lock that weighed three thousand jin would one be qualified to challenge the Bronze Man Array.
Compared to the strength of a thousand pounds in martial arts novels, the strength of this world was obviously much higher.
Zhang Junbao didn't hesitate. He walked up to the 3,000-pound stone lock and reached out to pick it up. With a sudden push, he lifted it over his head.
Beside him, the monk who had been sitting quietly and presiding over the test suddenly opened his eyes.
"Good!"
The monk praised softly.
Although there were many experts in Shaolin Temple, there were not many martial arts that laymen disciples could learn. Basically, they were all relatively ordinary martial arts.
Although Zhang Junbao was wearing a mask, it was obvious that he was very young from the skin color of his hands.
As a secular disciple, it was not easy for him to lift a three thousand jin stone lock at such a young age.
It was no wonder that the monk presiding over the test could not help but praise him.
"Do you want to challenge the Bronze Man Array?"
Zhang Junbao nodded and cupped his hands.""Sorry for the trouble."
The abbot looked at him silently, then turned around and opened a door.
"Don't force yourself."
He could tell that Zhang Junbao was very young, so he instructed him again.
This room was the bronze man array. It was not an array formed by real people, but a mechanical bronze man.
The copper formation had no eyes, so there was a certain risk in testing it. Therefore, the abbot monk told him not to force it.
There were three stages to the Mechanical Bronze Man Formation, and it could only be used to test experts below Stage Three.
After passing three stages, one would become a Stage Three expert.
As for the test above the third stage, the experts of the Arhat Hall would form the Bronze Man Array.
Of course, he couldn't always be prepared for that kind of bronze formation.
If one wanted to take the test, one needed to make an appointment in advance.
Ranks were used to divide the ranks of experts in this world.
Only those who entered the Duan stage could be called experts.
Most martial artists would never be able to enter the martial arts hall and become a Stage One expert, let alone Stage Three.
The higher the rank, the higher the martial arts skills.
Generally speaking, the highest level of martial arts was at Stage Nine.
A Stage Nine expert was definitely an existence that was admired by tens of thousands of people. He was the idol in the hearts of countless martial artists.
Seeing Zhang Junbao enter the room, the abbot couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"Looks like another layman disciple is about to obtain a rank. Strange, looking at this disciple's figure and appearance, it should be his first time coming here to take the test. Which hall is he from?”
Even though Zhang Junbao was wearing a mask, the abbot's gaze was sharp and experienced.
As long as someone came here to take the test, he would be able to recognize them after taking a look. Wearing a mask would not be able to hide from him.
However, Zhang Junbao was indeed a stranger. He had no impression of him.
"Forget it, this has nothing to do with This Penniless Monk. It's his first time here, so it's hard to say whether he can pass the first stage and become a Stage One expert.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the light in the first room in the courtyard lit up.
These test rooms all had special mechanisms.
Once the bronze man was defeated, the mechanism would light up the lamp.
The light indicated that he had passed and became a Stage One expert.
The abbot was stunned.
"You passed the first stage so quickly? This kid was quite capable. However, this should be the end of it. Hopefully, he knows when to stop and doesn't force his way through the second stage.”
One rank, one sky.
There was a huge difference between a Stage Two expert and a Stage One expert.
After all, this was the first time that this layman disciple had come to take the test. It was already not easy for him to pass the test in one go and become a Stage One expert.
As for the second part, he would need to accumulate more time.
After the abbot monk finished speaking, no one came out.
"Looks like he's going to pass the second stage. Young people these days are really young and impetuous!”
The abbot sighed softly.
He wasn't optimistic about Zhang Junbao's chances of passing the second stage, but he was still a young man, so he couldn't help but have some drive.
He was insufferably arrogant and thought that he was amazing!
It might not be a bad thing to let him suffer a little.
Just as this thought appeared in his mind, the light in the second room lit up again.
The host monk's body shook violently.
"This young man is actually so powerful that he became a Stage Two expert in one fell swoop?”
He found it hard to believe.
For a long time, only the core elite disciples of the Dharma Hall and Arhat Hall could pass two stages at once.
But that masked youth was clearly a layman disciple!
How could he be so strong?
Isn't this a little illogical?
The abbot shook his head gently.
"There are more than 100,000 Shaolin disciples. There are countless of them. There are many talented people and experts. It's not surprising that one or two such martial arts geeks occasionally appear.”
"However, why don't you shave his head and officially take him into the Shaolin Temple?”
The abbot was a little puzzled.
This was a talent with high martial arts talent, which was exactly what Shaolin Temple needed.
"Perhaps it's because his fate in the mortal world is still unfulfilled, so his master didn't shave his head.”
"However, there's no need to rush. Since you've become a Shaolin layman disciple and have such talent, it's only natural that you'll be recruited under the sect in the future.”
He had never thought about whether the other party was willing to become a monk.
After all, the Shaolin Temple had never been rejected.
As long as he wanted to take that person in, he would always find a way.
Even the devils who roamed the martial world were like this. They could accept him as they pleased. Even if the other party refused, there were ten thousand ways to deal with him, let alone a small youth like him.
Shaolin Temple was majestic, and Buddhism was boundless.
"He's still not coming out?"
"To be able to pass through two stages at once, he is indeed a genius. However, it would be a little too reckless to directly attempt the third stage now.”
The abbot shook his head repeatedly. He wasn't optimistic about Zhang Junbao's chances of passing the third stage.
What a joke. The third stage was not something the previous two stages could compare to.
A third stage expert was already quite famous in the game.
How could such a young secular disciple be able to achieve it?
As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, he suddenly froze.
What was going on?
The light in the third room was lit?
He passed the third stage?
