Swordsmanship talent can determine a person's potential and achievements in the Sword Dao.

Celestial Sword Sect focuses primarily on Sword Cultivation, naturally prioritizing the swordsmanship talent of its disciples.

Therefore, the entrance assessment of the Celestial Sword Sect is not only more rigorous than other sects but also includes an additional evaluation of swordsmanship talent.

If one's swordsmanship talent is exceptional, they may still have a chance to join the Celestial Sword Sect even if their Martial Arts aptitude and bloodline are somewhat lacking.

Conversely, if one's swordsmanship aptitude is too poor, the Celestial Sword Sect will not accept them, even if their Martial Arts aptitude and bloodline are better than average.

Of course, if one's Martial Arts aptitude is extremely high, or their bloodline is extraordinarily outstanding, the Celestial Sword Sect will undoubtedly lower its requirements.

The instrument used by the Celestial Sword Sect to evaluate swordsmanship talent is a sword-shaped jade stone called the Inquiry Sword Stone.

The candidate only needs to gently place their palm on it, and the Inquiry Sword Stone will detect their swordsmanship talent.

If one star is lit up, it means they have a Sword Cultivation talent, but this is the most ordinary swordsmanship talent, not even considered qualified.

Only by lighting up three stars does one meet the entry standards of the Celestial Sword Sect, and above three stars, they are considered true swordsmanship geniuses.

At this moment, the person standing at the forefront has already begun the evaluation.

This is a young man around nineteen years old with the cultivation of the Eighth Layer of the Energy-Introducing Realm.

He gently placed his palm on the Inquiry Sword Stone, and suddenly, a brilliant silver light burst forth from it.

Then, everyone saw that the star-shaped pattern at the bottom of the Inquiry Sword Stone had been lit up, shining with silver brilliance.

"One-star swordsmanship talent, unqualified."

Ouyang Ling glanced at the young man lightly and then spoke.

"A one-star swordsmanship talent is merely the most ordinary swordsmanship talent, but if one excels in other areas, they might still have a chance."

At this time, Song Qing spoke softly to Wang Ruoxie: "However, considering this person's age, he shouldn't be younger than nineteen, yet he only has the Eighth Layer of Energy-Introducing Realm cultivation. His Martial Arts aptitude and bloodline must also be quite average, so Elder Ouyang directly eliminated him."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ruoxie nodded slightly, seeing through this that entering the Celestial Sword Sect is not easy.

Hearing Ouyang Ling's words, the young man shook his head with a face full of bitterness, then turned and left the square.

Next, people walked up to the Inquiry Sword Stone one after another to evaluate their swordsmanship talent,

Most could only light up one star or two stars, indicating they only had one-star or two-star swordsmanship talent, not meeting the entry criteria of the Celestial Sword Sect.

However, Ouyang Ling did not immediately eliminate everyone, but noted down their evaluation results. If they perform well in subsequent evaluations, they still have a chance to enter the Celestial Sword Sect.

As for those who could not light up even one star and had low cultivation, Ouyang Ling did not hesitate to eliminate them directly.

The evaluation process is simple, so naturally, it doesn't take long. Otherwise, with tens of thousands of people present, even if it took a day and a night, they might not finish all the evaluations.

As time passed, over half of the individuals completed their evaluations.

Most of them managed to light up three stars, possessing three-star swordsmanship talent, which is barely qualified.

After all, those who came for the Celestial Sword Sect's evaluation are mostly Sword Cultivators, their swordsmanship talent generally not too poor.

Not only that, there were even some individuals with quite outstanding swordsmanship talent.

For instance, a girl in a purple dress named Bing Ling previously lit up five stars, drawing much envy.

A five-star swordsmanship talent qualifies as a true Sword Cultivation genius, not commonly seen even in the Celestial Sword Sect.

It can be said that, regardless of her subsequent evaluation results, she has a great chance of entering the Celestial Sword Sect.

"Heavens, he actually lit up six stars."

"A six-star swordsmanship talent must be a one-in-a-million Sword Cultivation genius."

At this moment, an astonished cry arose from the crowd.

Wang Ruoxie looked up and saw a young man clad in a white robe, with a longsword strapped to his back, currently undergoing evaluation. In front of him on the Inquiry Sword Stone, there were six sword-shaped patterns shining with silver light.

This indicated he lit up six stars, possessing a six-star swordsmanship talent.

"I didn't expect someone with six-star swordsmanship talent to appear."

Song Qing said with some shock.

At this time, Ouyang Ling showed a look of delight, knowing that a six-star swordsmanship talent is scarce even among the younger generation of the Celestial Sword Sect.

He secretly decided that when the evaluations concluded, he would recruit this rare Sword Cultivation genius into the sect.

"Is a six-star swordsmanship talent that rare?"

Wang Ruoxie looked at Song Qing and asked.

He was unaware of what standard the so-called star ratings represented.

"Yes, extremely rare. Generally, a five-star swordsmanship talent is already an exceptionally rare Sword Cultivation genius, and a six-star swordsmanship talent is even more of a one-in-a-million top-notch Sword Cultivation genius."

Song Qing nodded, saying: "As far as I know, there are tens of thousands who come each year for the Celestial Sword Sect evaluations, yet the most six-star swordsmanship talents that have appeared in one year have only been three."

"A one-in-a-million top-notch Sword Cultivation genius?"

Hearing Song Qing's words, Wang Ruoxie looked slightly surprised.

A six-star swordsmanship talent already qualifies as a top-notch Sword Cultivation genius, so what about a seven-star, eight-star, or even nine-star swordsmanship talent?

At this moment, Leng Ao walked up to the Inquiry Sword Stone, lifted his palm, and gently placed it on the stone.

The next moment, a brilliant silver light shone, ultimately lighting up five star-shaped patterns.

This meant that Leng Ao had a five-star swordsmanship talent.

Wang Ruoxie wasn't too surprised by this, as Leng Ao had already achieved a Minor Achievement level in Following the Heart swordsmanship; thus, his swordsmanship talent couldn't be too poor.

As Leng Ao returned to the crowd, his gaze revealed a provocative look towards Wang Ruoxie.

"This guy... Brother Wang, make sure you aren't overshadowed by him."

Song Qing said to Wang Ruoxie.

"Don't worry, I won't disappoint him."

Wang Ruoxie smiled calmly, saying.

He was naturally confident in his own swordsmanship talent.

Half an hour later, another ten thousand people finished their evaluations.

There appeared thirty-six four-star swordsmanship talents, seven five-star swordsmanship talents, and yet another six-star swordsmanship talent in a girl named Lin Xueyao.

This caused another wave of amazement among the crowd, even more excited than before, as this girl not only had astonishing swordsmanship talent but also possessed a stunning appearance.

Although her youth gave her a slightly immature look, it wouldn't be long before she grew into a stunning beauty.

Soon, it was finally Wang Ruoxie's turn.

He took a step forward, walking towards the Inquiry Sword Stone, with some anticipation of how many stars he might light up.

In the crowd, Song Qing and Leng Ao both fixed their eyes on him.

However, Song Qing hoped that Wang Ruoxie would make an impressive display, whereas Leng Ao hoped Wang Ruoxie would be embarrassed.
