After following the departing crowd to the road, sure enough, at the fork in the mountain, almost eighty percent of the crowd walked in the direction of the trial ground, making the already small road a little crowded, and many people were still standing at the fork in the road to line up to go to the trial ground. I don't know if that trial ground can accommodate so many people, but according to the inference, when this place was first opened, the ancestors of Shushan must have considered the number of people, otherwise the maximum capacity of that teaching hall would not be a thousand people, and it stands to reason that this trial ground should also be of this scale.

While queuing with the other three, Ye Tingcheng noticed that although some people did return to the residential area, more people were watching or hesitating. After seeing that most of the people were going to the proving ground, this part of the people sighed lightly and began to line up, after all, if they lost, they would have to stay in the Imperial Sword City until two years later, saving such a little Yuan Crystal, maybe it would be wasted there at that time, rather than this, it would be better to use it here.

So in the end, the proportion of people who didn't go to the trial ground was actually only twenty percent, and it was not that they didn't want to go or were reluctant, but they really didn't have Yuan Jing, and there were many of them like Zuo Wei, who originally planned to go to the lower four courtyards to sign up, but they were found to have spiritual roots and were sent to the upper four courtyards to register. If it weren't for Ye Chengcheng, Zuo Wei would have fallen into the same situation as these people, they only had a small amount of silver on their bodies, not to mention that they couldn't exchange it at all, even if they could find someone who was willing to exchange it, they wouldn't be able to make up how many yuan crystals at all, let alone spend it in a place like the trial ground.

Some people may say that this is unfair, obviously saying that it is fair competition, and only those who choose the best ones can enter the Upper Fourth Academy, but this will open up the gap between these new disciples who did not know anything about the cultivation realm before and those such as Ye Qingcheng and Qian Wanliang. However, as everyone knows, sometimes luck is also part of strength, like these people who become cultivators the day after tomorrow, their own starting line and qualifications are worse than others, among them can get ahead, not many, if you want to surpass those who are already stronger than them, you naturally need some opportunities, and with good luck, you may be able to do it.

As mentioned earlier, there are so many mortals in the human world that they are like rivers and rivers that they can't be counted, so why can you become cultivators while others have to live their busy lives? In this, there is also an element of luck, even so many supreme spiritual root people will die as mortals, what excuse do you have to say that God is unfair?

Seeing that so many people could only go back with helplessness, Ye Qingcheng couldn't help but feel a little emotional, if the conditions permitted, he might really want to give his Yuan Crystals to these guys, after all, the number of Yuan Crystals he has now is simply an astronomical amount for middle and low-level cultivators. But he knows very well that he can't do this, whether it's because these people are also competitors, but also because he can't promote the psychology of dependence, cultivators, only by overcoming thousands of difficulties by themselves, can they become a human being, and they always rely on the help of other people, they can't become a climate, this point, even the rules of heaven and earth are known, so anyone who uses external forces to cross the small heavenly tribulation and the golden thunder tribulation is destined to be weaker than the normal existence of the same level.

After queuing for a long time, Ye Qingcheng and they finally came to the door of the trial ground, saying that it was a trial ground, but it was actually the entrance to a forest, according to the conversations of the people around, it seemed that this trial ground was in this forest, but the forest here naturally did not have any connection with the forest under the mountain, and there was no demon beast in it. Although there was a certain distance apart, Ye Tingcheng's eyes were excellent, and he saw that there were several disciples of the upper four courtyards at the entrance who were charging, and every time a new disciple paid the corresponding fee, they would issue a spirit card, and write something on it with a pen, and then the new disciple entered the forest and disappeared.

According to Ye Chengcheng's guess, this entrance should be the same space entrance as when they participated in the interview review before, according to the token issued to you, you will be teleported to a specific area in the forest, so that others cannot disturb you, and you can also exercise with peace of mind, or wait for Wu Lao's guidance.

Sure enough, as the leader of the foursome, he was ahead of the other three, and he was the first to come to the door of the trial ground.

The disciple of the Upper Fourth Academy, who was in charge of collecting the money, glanced at him, and said without even asking: "One hour five yuan crystal, according to the time when Elder Wu may come to you, it is recommended to start in two hours." ”

Ye Chengcheng thought about it in his heart, an hour of five-yuan crystals is not too expensive, after all, even the charge of ten thousand taels is only a one-time five-yuan crystal, this price is indeed relatively cheap and close to the people. Although comparatively, twelve hours will cost sixty yuan crystals, which is more expensive than the price of an ordinary courtyard in the West Lake Courtyard for one day, but I don't think anyone will stay in such a place for twelve hours, it is still acceptable, it is acceptable.

After taking out five low-level Yuan Crystals and handing them to the disciple of the Upper Fourth Academy, the guy took out a token from his storage bag and handed it to the disciple who was holding the Zhu Hao pen beside him. Ye Chengcheng noticed that the guy was using his divine thoughts to control Zhu Hao's pen and write something on his token, after taking the token, he took a look and found that what was written on it was a kind of text that he didn't recognize, in this case, it was impossible for him to call out Huan Chenyu to recognize it.

Finding that he was looking at the text, the disciple holding the Zhu Hao pen smiled and said: "Senior brother seems to be interested in this kind of writing, right? In fact, this is a popular text in a certain Xiuzhen era in the past, I don't know why it gradually became extinct later, but it will be used in many ways, such as the time I now demarcate your token, like the text I wrote on it is' Two hours', that is, the time of use of the trial ground purchased by the junior disciple, when the time is up, the words will disappear, and you will return to our door, because the pigment used is special, and it cannot be adulterated. ”

"I see, thank you for your advice. Ye Tingcheng nodded, no wonder he had to send two people specially, it turned out that one was specifically responsible for writing this kind of text...... It's just that he just mentioned the era of cultivation, and Huan Chenyu also said something about the previous era, could it be that there are still many times for cultivators? Just like the imperial court in their Central Plains, it seems that they have time to ask.
