Chapter 344: The Trial Conference Begins
The Twelve Cultivation Families attached great importance to the 100 invited people, and early the next morning, after breakfast, they made unified arrangements to get into the car and go to the trial meeting site.
However, it was no longer Guo Tai who arranged these specific matters, but a middle-aged man, whose surname was Zi, and his name was Zi Chengji, who was a member of the Zi family.
The location of the trial meeting held every ten years is not fixed, the last ten years were in the urban area of Los Angeles, but ten years have passed, and Los Angeles has long been unrecognizable, and that trial venue, with high-rise buildings, obviously can no longer be used.
This time, the trial meeting took place in a remote town called Longmen Town, a remote town near Los Angeles, which is about a three-hour drive from Los Angeles.
Two hours later, the car drove into Longmen Town, where someone was already receiving them, leading everyone to the trial site.
The trial venue covers an area of nearly five acres, and in the middle of it, a ring is set up from the ground, and some simple temporary stands are built around it.
Because the trial conference was only held for one day, the venue was not very exquisite, but it obviously took a lot of effort and money to open up a flat site covering an area of about five acres in this forest.
When Jiang Feng and his party arrived, there were already a lot of people in the stands, Zi Chengji briefly introduced, twelve families, divided into twelve areas, but in the area, not all of them were people from their own family, and there were already friends and friends.
Zi Chengji's words were very simple, but Jiang Feng still found that many people's eyes flashed, obviously, after Guo Tai left from him yesterday, he didn't get nothing.
The 100 people who have obtained the observation quota are also specially divided into an area for rest, but for those who have obtained VIP seats and distinguished seats, there are no hard and fast rules, especially the ten people in the distinguished seats can move freely without control.
From this, it can also be seen that the twelve families attach great importance to the prestige seat, in this way, it can be regarded as giving some people in the prestige seat an opportunity, if they have the heart to befriend some families, or some families have the heart to befriend them, this will be very convenient.
Zi Chengji said some precautions and left quickly, and everyone who got ordinary seats walked up to the stands one after another, but also successively people with VIP seats and distinguished seats left and went to the major families, among these people, some of them themselves came for the name of the twelve families, and some were persuaded by Guo Tai yesterday, and most of the latter went in the direction where the Guo family was.
Jiang Feng did not leave, he went to the stands, there are only ten places in the distinguished seat, naturally there are many preferential places, you can sit in the best place of sight, there is a canopy overhead, which can shelter from the wind and rain, and at the same time, there is a bead curtain hanging down, which does not affect the sight of insiders, but can make outsiders not see the situation in the stands.
In addition, in the stands, there was a round table with wine on the table and various snacks, Jiang Feng was quite satisfied with this, and sat down generously, just waiting for the start of the trial meeting.
About half an hour later, an old man came into the ring, the old man was about sixty years old, with a thick beard and a strong body, and when he spoke, his voice was like a bell, and he was deafening.
"Welcome to come and cheer, I Guo Jing here to thank you for your face. The old man named Guo Jing clasped his fists with both hands and said loudly.
Guo Jing is the head of the Guo family, and the Guo family has the title of the first family among the twelve families, and Guo Jing has naturally become a representative figure.
After that, it is to introduce the rules of the trial conference, and the twelve families will launch one person to compete in turn by lottery, win one person, accumulate one point, and the three people with the highest score will draw lots again to round out the final champion.
As Guo Jing's words fell, from twelve directions, twelve people rushed to the ring.
The twelve cultivation families are the Guo family, the Jiang family, the Zi family, the Xu family, the Xu family, the Shui family, the Qiao family, the Wei family, the Dai family, the Lin family, the Yao family, and the Zhong family.
The twelve people who came to the stage were all the best among them, and they each represented the best person in the family, and as soon as they appeared, they attracted everyone's attention.
"That girl in purple is Ziling of the Zi family, I heard that she is extremely talented, and is known as the first person in this generation of young people, looking at her abundance, it is really convincing. Someone whispered.
"Although Ziling is strong, don't forget Guo Ziming, although this Guo Ziming's talent is not outstanding, but it is not obvious, his strength is still not to be underestimated, I think Ziling wants to succeed in winning the championship, it is not easy. "Someone next to me gave a review.
"Yes, the Guo family's heritage is extraordinary, although Guo Ziming is not famous, but it is obviously not easy to match, of course, except for these two people, the rest of the ten people are not simple. A middle-aged man with a slightly older grade sighed.
He is nearly fifty years old, and he has just crossed the threshold of the initial cultivation of the yellow level, and this time he was able to pass the guò test to obtain an invitation place, not because of his outstanding strength, but because this is not the first time he has participated in the test, with the experience of failure last time, he was well prepared this time, and he was able to get away with it.
However, when a person reaches fifty, he can be worthy of a yellow-level cultivation, and the cultivation in this life probably stops here, watching the twelve people in the ring, all of them are about twenty years old, high-spirited, extraordinary, which makes him feel emotional.
Someone immediately agreed, and said with a sigh: "Yes, compared with them, it is simply the difference between clouds and mud, they have such cultivation at such an age, and in time, we can only look up." ”
This is an old man, with a yellow face and thin muscles, coughing softly while talking, and speaking hoarsely, the reason why he has become like this is because the practice is not properly guided, and the cultivation of ancient martial arts requires all kinds of resources, and such consumption is not something that ordinary people can afford.
This person's family background is average, when he was young, he was greedy for merit, leaving the root of the disease, and there was hope of curing, but a penny stumped the hero, leaving the root of the disease accumulated for many years, which also caused him to cultivate for decades and not make an inch, and now seeing the twelve young faces, his heart fluctuates and cannot be stable.
Jiang Feng didn't interject in these discussions, but he also nodded lightly, and in a certain way, he agreed.
Whether it is true cultivation or ancient martial arts cultivation, in a certain sense, unless there is a big opportunity, generally speaking, a large amount of money is piled up. This is also the reason why when the children of the family are cultivating, their progress far exceeds that of ordinary people. Even if it was him, it would have cost a lot of money to simply refine the ninth layer of the body, otherwise with the qualifications of this body, if he wanted to reach the current height in the short term, he really wouldn't even think about it.
Everyone whispered, and the people in the direction of the twelve families looked at the twelve people in the ring, where there were the best sons of their younger generation, and today, they would fight on behalf of the family and compete for the glory that belonged to the family.
Jiang Feng's gaze swept slightly, sweeping from the direction of the twelve families, and immediately, his gaze fell on the ring, just a glance, Jiang Feng's brows were furrowed fiercely.
"Acquaintances, it's really a lot. Jiang Feng said secretly, slightly surprised.
Jiang Feng had dealt with Ziling, Shui Qingqian, and Xu Zhikuan and Qiao Zhenming, and he knew that when he came this time, he would see acquaintances, but he was quite low-key, and he didn't show his face, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
However, at the moment, it seems that there are more acquaintances than he imagined.
A young man in white stood in the wind, obviously the young man who had dealt with him once at the magic weapon exchange meeting, he introduced himself as Guo Ziming, arrogant but not domineering, leaving an impression on Jiang Feng.
If it is not a surprise to say that Guo Ziming is a member of the Guo family, Jiang Feng is not surprised, then the other face makes Jiang Feng a little surprised.
The first time we met, it was at Sister Hua's Flower Field Racecourse, that time, he abolished one of the man's hands, and then in the backyard of the rental house, there was a relationship, it was none other than Xu Chengde, who had been clamoring for the most powerful person.
Xu Chengde, well, it seems to be from the Xu family.
Seeing these two people, Jiang Feng reached out and touched his nose, and smiled helplessly, it turned out that unconsciously, he had already dealt with more than half of the leaders of the younger generation of the twelve families.
It seems that he is right not to be in the limelight, otherwise not to mention that Qiao Zhenming will never die, just Xu Chengde's mad dog-like personality will be in trouble.
Of course, avoiding these troubles is not that Jiang Feng is afraid of trouble, it's just that there is no need.
A box covered with a black cloth was sent to the ring, and the lottery began quickly, with twelve people taking turns to draw lots, and after the lot, they reported their numbers in turn, and then the first round of the competition began.
The first to play were Wei Jia Wei Yun and Dai Chong of the Dai family, both of whom were late Huang level cultivators, from the perspective of basic strength, they were comparable, after a hard battle, Wei Yun narrowly won a move, and Dai was shocked out of the ring and scored one point.
Then it was Jiang Wei of the Jiang family against Yao Mu of the Yao family, Jiang Wei was the early stage of the Xuan level, Yao Mu was the late stage of the Huang level, and the gap in basic strength determined that there was no suspense in this competition, and the fact was that Yao Mu was defeated, and Jiang Wei scored one point.
In the third scene, Xu Zhikuan of the Xu family vs. Qiao Zhenming of the Qiao family, Xu Zhikuan's strength has improved compared to what Jiang Feng saw last time, and he has cultivated in the early stage of the Xuan level, and Qiao Zhenming is also in the early stage of the Xuan level.
Just when everyone thought that the fight between the two would be a bitter fight, the accident happened, Qiao Zhenming was not Xu Zhikuan's enemy at all, and under one palm, he was thrown off the ring by Xu Zhikuan, and he failed miserably with one move, losing face.
"Damn bastard, I'm going to make sure you don't die well. After being carried away, Qiao Zhenming roared angrily, it was terrifying, the faces of the Qiao family were extremely ugly, and everyone looked at each other, wondering who Qiao Zhenming was talking to.
Only Jiang Feng himself knew that the words were said to him, but it also surprised him slightly, although he did not be ruthless to Qiao Zhenming, but the difference in each other's strength could not be reasoned, under the casual shot, Qiao Zhenming's legs were also abolished, but he didn't expect Qiao Zhenming to be able to stand up, although standing up was also the end of the crossbow, but in just two days, he could be no different from ordinary on the surface, which still surprised Jiang Feng.
"It seems that this Qiao family is not very simple. Jiang Feng thought secretly. L
