　　“The Knife Grinding Boy？”
　　Regarding the failure of Li Xueqing, Xu Taiping didn’t pay too much attention. Instead, the four words “Knife Grinding Boy” in the mouth of theElder made Xu Taiping pay particular attention.
　　After seeing Xu Taiping’s doubts, the Saber Ghost suddenly took a step forward, pointed at the high platform in the center of the lobby, and then said：
　　“The training of the Mysterious Pill Palace disciples on the sixth floor of this Martial Supreme Tower is to let the disciples ascend the platform and challenge those few humanoid puppets. Only the winning side is considered to have passed the challenge.”
　　Xu Taiping took a closer look and found that at the four corners of the high platform, there were indeed four lifelike humanoid puppets standing.
　　The Saber Ghost continued at this time：
　　“When I came to spy last time, I heard the two elders discussing that these four puppets were obtained by the second head of Xuandan Palace from the ruins of the Tianwai Star Palace. They are extremely mysterious.”
　　“It is said that as long as you practice against them once, the puppet will be able to deduce about seven or eight out of ten of the kung fu you have cultivated and use it for itself.”
　　“Among all the skills, these four puppets are particularly good at swordsmanship.”
　　“When you test your sword against them, they can not only completely deduce your swordsmanship, but also be better than blue.”
　　“Therefore, after the second head of Xuandan Palace obtained them, he mainly used them to test his sword.”
　　“Precisely because of this, Xuandan Palace has produced a sword cultivator who is famous in the upper and lower Qing realms.”
　　After hearing the introduction of Dao Gui, Xu Taiping couldn’t help but ask curiously：
　　“These puppets seem to be suitable for you, Senior Dao Gui！”
　　Dao Gui said helplessly：
　　“When I heard about this, I had already borrowed the body of a disciple of Xuandan Palace to test a couple of swords with them. As a result, I found that these four puppets are just four imitations.”
　　“If I hadn’t held back a little, I might have cut one of them with a single sword.”
　　Dao Gui immediately added：
　　“However, although they are imitations, for you at present, they may be just right.”
　　Xu Taiping nodded silently.
At this moment, he finally understood why Senior Saber Ghost was so certain. This Saber Trial Pavilion on the sixth floor of the Martial Champion Tower could help him enhance his saber technique to the extreme.
Because if according to the introduction of Senior Saber Ghost just now, if after the four puppets named Grinding Saber Boy deduced his saber technique, he still wanted to defeat these Grinding Saber Boys, he would have to perform an extreme saber strike.
This was in a disguised form of forcing him to a desperate situation.
　　And just as Saber Ghost was talking to Xu Taiping, I saw that after hesitating for a long time, Beiguo Xiao still stepped forward and asked Li Xueqing：
　　“Junior Sister Xueqing, are you, are you okay？”
　　Li Xueqing looked at Beiguo Xiao with a complicated expression, and then shook her head expressionlessly and said：
　　“It’s okay.”
　　Jiang Yan, the younger sister of Jiang Ping on the side, added：
　　“Don’t be so fake and sympathetic here. I think you can’t wait to see Senior Sister Xueqing fail the challenge and then stay in the Outer Sect with you, right？”
　　After hearing these words, Beiguo Xiao’s face immediately turned cold and said：
　　“When I talk to Junior Sister Xueqing, when is it your turn, you wild girl, to interrupt？ The Chenglongtian Jiang family has really become very powerful recently！”
　　When talking to Jiang Yan, Beiguo Xiao seemed to have changed into a different person, and his eyes were full of coldness and hostility.
　　And Fu Liu, who was checking Li Xueqing’s injuries, after hearing Bei Guo Xiao’s words, immediately reached out and gently patted Jiang Yan’s shoulder, and said in a gentle tone：
　　“Jiang Yan, don’t engage in this useless verbal dispute with an outsider.”
　　After hearing the word “outsider”, in the eyes of Bei Guo Xiao looking at Fu Liu, there was suddenly an uncontrollable thick killing intent revealed.
　　After feeling Bei Guo Xiao’s killing intent, not only did Fu Liu’s expression remain as calm as ever, but instead, with a smile on his face, he looked towards Bei Guo Xiao’s gaze and said：
　　“Young Master Bei Guo, Junior Sister Xueqing is about to continue challenging the Knife Grinding Boy. If you want to watch the battle, please watch silently aside and don’t make any more noises to disturb her.”
　　He and Li Xueqing had been preparing for the challenge of the Knife Grinding Boy on this sixth floor, so they didn’t pay attention to what was happening downstairs.
　　Bei Guo Xiao coldly harrumphed and said：
　　“I didn’t come here to watch the battle today.”
Upon hearing this, both Fu Liu and Li Xueqing showed expressions of not understanding simultaneously.
　　At this time, a disciple of Xuandan Palace who came to the sixth floor together with Bei Guo Xiao suddenly, not afraid of causing trouble, loudly laughed and said：
　　“Senior Brother Fu Liu, you probably don’t know yet, do you？ Senior Brother Bei Guo has consecutively won the first place on the fourth floor. Now, like Senior Sister Xueqing, he is also going to challenge the Knife Grinding Boy！”
　　Upon hearing this, both Fu Liu and Li Xueqing’s eyes revealed astonishment.
　　Jiang Yan even sneered and said：
　　If that Bei Guo Xiao can obtain the qualification to challenge the Knife Grinding Boy, then wouldn’t I, Jiang Yan, have already reached the top of the Wu Kui Tower？
　　Just at this moment, her elder brother, Jiang Ping, also ascended to the sixth floor.
　　So Jiang Yan immediately shouted and asked：
　　Brother, someone said that this Bei Guo Xiao has obtained the qualification to challenge the Knife Grinding Boy. Do you think it’s ridiculous or not？
　　Upon hearing this, Jiang Ping first looked at Bei Guo Xiao with a complicated gaze, and then frowned and looked at Jiang Yan and Fu Liu and Li Xueqing behind her and said：
　　It’s true.
　　In the astonished gazes of the three people, Jiang Ping continued：
　　He not only passed the challenge, but also won the first place from the second floor to the fifth floor.
　　Although Jiang Ping extremely disliked Bei Guo Xiao, from the first floor until just now on the fifth floor, Bei Guo Xiao’s performance had already made him dormant.
　　After a brief moment of daze, Jiang Yan suddenly said in disbelief：
　　Impossible, brother. It must be that this Bei Guo Xiao used some secret means to be able to continuously win the first place on five floors！
　　Although Jiang Ping still had doubts in his heart, he, who had witnessed Bei Guo Xiao step by step up to this sixth floor, could not question it as frankly as Jiang Yan.
　　So he just nodded and said：
　　“Maybe, but at least for those floors just now, I can’t pick out any faults.”
　　As soon as these words came out, Jiang Yan, Fu Liu and Li Xueqing behind her all had expressions of surprise on their faces.
　　Because this was the first time they had seen Jiang Ping be so lacking in confidence when questioning Bei Guo Xiao.
　　Just then, the elder on the sixth floor also walked out from the side of the high platform.
　　I saw that this Elder Zhang with all white hair and beard, with his hands behind his back, looked at Xu Taiping with a very serious expression and said：
　　“Although this old man also somewhat doesn’t believe it, but just now I have received the messages from several elders on the first to fifth floors, confirming that you have passed all the tests on the first to fifth floors and are eligible to challenge the Knife Grinding Boy on the sixth floor.”
　　When saying this, that elder glanced at Li Xueqing beside him, and then looked at Bei Guo Xiao again and continued：
　　“If you are willing, you can challenge first before Li Xueqing.”
As soon as these words came out, including Li Xueqing and others, many Xuandan Palace disciples who had been staying on the sixth floor and didn’t know the situation downstairs all let out exclamations in unison.
　　Because the words of this elder just now undoubtedly hammered the final nail in the coffin for the dispute among everyone just now——
　　“Bei Guo Xiao has indeed won the qualification to challenge the Knife Grinding Boy.”
