Volume 1 Chapter 29 The Second Round of Selection
The ground of the new show field on the mountainside of Mt. Yujian is covered with fine stones, and in the center of the field stands a stone tablet several zhang high, on which is carved a scale.
"I can't imagine that this year's Edgeworth Gate actually conducts the selection in this way, it's really novel!" The audience was basically standing together in twos and threes, discussing with each other. And there are only one hundred and one people in such a vast field, which really looks a little rare. This year's selection method of the Imperial Sword Gate is indeed a big surprise, in the past, it was basically a civil fight, a martial arts, and a test of character, not to mention a few rounds of selection, before this hundred and one person was selected. But this year, you only need to pass a fantasy to be directly selected, and there are some people who have a poor strength base, but they can pass the choice of the illusion. And some people have made a lot of preparations, and their strength is higher than others, but they still can't pass through the illusion, which is really embarrassing.
Most of the people in this square are from Falling Water City, and of course some are from the surrounding cities, after all, the Imperial Sword Gate is also famous.
"Brother Liu, it seems that there are not a few outsiders this year!" Zhao He looked at the people on the field and couldn't help but speak.
"The Imperial Sword Sect is also a major sect in the Southern Regions, and its background is also very thick, so it's not surprising that it can attract so many other people!" Lin Shujian said.
"Eh!" Zhao He was a little surprised: "I suddenly found an ant, I didn't expect this year's selection threshold to be so low!" It turned out that Zhao He suddenly discovered the existence of Long Ling, which really surprised him.
"Who knows!" Lin Shujian also didn't care.
Liu Jie was speechless at this time: "I said, your focus is on the ants, can you pay attention to the people who are really threatening us!"
"Look. Liu Jie glanced at the two people not far away with his eyes: "That person, Wei Lingran, the young city lord of the uninjured city, and the woman next to him is her own sister Wei Yuxiu." Moreover, Wei Yuxiu's talent is even higher than Wei Lingran's talent, and both of them are currently at the peak of their prime. The two of them practiced at least Xuan-level exercises. ”
Liu Jie's words made Lin Shujian and the others can't help but start to look at the people in this scene again.
"Not only the harmless city, but also the city near the city of Falling Water City will basically have some people with status coming here. Liu Jie looked at the people on the field again and said, "Zhao He, I heard that you have an elder here who is the deputy master, then the three of us will go to his door to practice!"
"Thank you young city lord for appreciating your face, my second grandfather will definitely take care of us if he wants to come!" Zhao He said with a smile.
After a while, Jun Yuanxie and Guan Yuxi also came to the rookie show under the leadership of the two senior brothers, looking at such a huge square, there were only more than 100 people, which was indeed a bit small, and these people were also standing together in twos and threes. And Jun Yuanxie looked around as soon as he came here, and sure enough, he didn't disappoint him. After Gu Cheng and the others sent Jun Yuanxie here, they also left.
Jun Yuanxie walked straight towards Long Ling, with a relaxed smile on his face. And Long Ling obviously saw the only person he knew here, but his eyes were slightly evasive, but after a while, he also returned to normal.
"I knew that Brother Ling could succeed in coming up, but how could you have hair on your body?" Jun Yuanxie took a white strip on Long Ling's clothes, which was snow-white and silky, and it was obviously not human: "You won't hook up with the fox spirit, will you!haha......" Jun Yuanxie said jokingly. Guan Yuxi also followed, took the hair in Jun Yuanxie's hand, looked at it carefully, and then didn't speak, just showed a hint of an indescribable smile, and it looked a little infiltrating.
"Don't talk about that, Brother Jun, we've basically entered the Edgeworth Gate, haha...... We finally don't have to run around outside. Long Ling said happily.
"Yes, it's just that I've heard that among our one hundred and one people, there will still be one person who will be eliminated, as long as it's not us......" Jun Yuan's evil words were not finished. Guan Yuxi directly interrupted his words and said a little angrily: "Then you mean that it doesn't matter if I am eliminated?"
"Well, okay, as long as the three of us don't get eliminated, it's okay!" Jun Yuanxie only changed his words.
"By the way, Brother Jun, those three people from Falling Water City are also here!" Long Ling glanced at Liu Jie and the three of them and said.
"Well, I think the people who came to get us before were also sent by them, but I don't know if they are the kind of people who bite and don't let go. It's all here, then only the soldiers will come to block it, and the water will cover it. Then he also looked at the people in the square. The people here, except for Jun Yuanxie and the three of them, none of the other people are glamorous and neatly dressed, and they know at a glance that they are all people who are either rich or noble. And Jun Yuanxie didn't have a trace of envy, the only thing he thought about was how he could become stronger, so that he could leave here and continue to move north.
At this moment, four streamers flew in the distance, landing on the highest platform on the side of the square. The person at the head is a middle-aged man with a resolute face, and he was also a handsome guy when he was young! This person is Gu Mingze.
Seeing the arrival of the four people, the inner disciples of the Imperial Sword Sect around the square saluted one after another: "See the door master, the deputy door master!"
And all the people who had just arrived here did not dare to slack off and saluted in turn.
"Okay, today is the enrollment day of my Imperial Sword Gate this year, although it will be every year, but it will be different every year. The development of a sect requires the continuous injection of new blood, of course, it does not mean that you can sit back and relax after entering the Imperial Sword Gate. Some people come in the first day and go home the next day. So, the rules are the most important thing. I hope that everyone will abide by it, and I hope that everyone can contribute to the development of my Edgeworth. ”
"In addition, we don't look at birth here, we only value strength and character!" Gu Mingze's words were ordinary, but he told the people here some of the simplest and most important rules.
"Okay, let's let Deputy Sect Master Jiu introduce to you today's rules for sorting disciples!"
Jiuyu stepped forward, didn't say much, and got straight to the point: "This round of selection is just a simple test for everyone, just a basic reference for the four of us to select disciples. ”
"Next, once you come to the square under the stone monument, there is a mudra, you just need to put your hand on the mudra to coincide. Alright, now you guys line up and get started!"
At this moment, a figure walked in at the entrance of the square, although it felt too old, but there was still a feeling of walking with the wind. And he just stood quietly at the entrance, looking at the situation inside, smiling, and brushing his beard from time to time.
Under the stele, the inner disciple who was in charge of testing and recording stood there.
I saw everyone lining up, and then they went up to test one by one. After the first person put his hand up, his strength and talent level were displayed on the stone tablet, as well as his own five element attributes.
According to the rules discussed by Gu Mingze's four people before, he would choose one person at random first, and then the three would be freely distributed, and in the end, all Gu Mingze's disciples would be left. The person with the lowest test result was not eligible for the Edgeworth Gate according to the previous rules, but this year it was different. Therefore, after testing a disciple, if Gu Mingze does not speak out, then there are three deputy sect masters to choose, and none of the three of them are wanted, so it will be left to Gu Mingze in turn. If there is a dispute between the three of them, it will be up to the disciples to choose where they want to go.
At this moment, an ink light appeared on the stone tablet that had not been seen before, which meant that this person had inherited the unique bloodline of his ancestors, and there were very few such people, and only those whose ancestors were the kind of people who had ascended to great power would have the opportunity to inherit a trace of his ancestor's bloodline.
And under the stone stele, all kinds of information about this person also appeared: the five elements of the young city lord Wei Ling Ran are flawless, the main wood, entering the peak realm of the spirit, and the bloodline without injury (no injury bloodline means that no matter what, you can have no trace of scarring, and all the essence blood consumed will not have a trace of scar even if you die, unless the inner body is exhausted of essence and blood, and at this time, it is already exhausted. Speaking of which, this kind of bloodline is a little chicken. It's just that the benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise. ) The rank is ink (bloodline level from highest to lowest: purple, red, blue, gold, cyan, ink, silver, gray, white.) Every three is a major grade, that is, the upper, middle, and lower levels. Although ink is the lowest in the intermediate level, it is still rare. And this also made Zhao Yunqian and the others a little happy, but they also asked very cautiously: "Door master, I don't know if you are satisfied?"
Gu Mingze didn't say a word, but continued to look at the people on the field. Apparently there is no interest in this person. In the end, Wei Lingran returned to Gao Yuan's door.
Just after Wei Lingran finished testing, the stele once again showed an ink light, and the color was even more thorough. This person is Wei Yuxiu. is younger than Wei Lingran, but he has a strength that can be compared with him, and his talent is indeed amazing. And Wei Yuxiu finally returned to the Nine Rain Gate.
