Chapter 63: Knowing People
When Luan Wenzhi's words fell, a sea of applause rang out, sweeping the entire square.
Everyone present was looking forward to the arrival of this moment, and they were naturally excited.
Even He Ku's emotions were somewhat infected by this beautiful scene.
"Candidates, please enter the forbidden area!" Luan Wenzhi's voice sounded again.
And at this moment, thousands of candidates, with a burning light in their eyes, are about to compete for the position of the final successor.
All the candidates had already received letterheads from the City Lords' Mansions, and this was the proof of entry into the forbidden area at this moment.
"After entering the forbidden area, please do not throw away this letterhead, it will play an important role in the subsequent selection. Luan Wenzhi, the city lord of Wangcheng, reminded everyone present.
Under the organization of the Wangcheng City Lord's Mansion, thousands of people methodically checked the letterheads in their hands one by one under the watchful eye of the queen's guards, and stepped into the forbidden area.
Why bother, naturally go with the people of the Shuiyun Academy.
The narrow entrance could only pass through two people at a time, and the progress of the thousands of people was slow.
It took two hours to enter the restricted area.
After entering the forbidden area of Wangcheng, thousands of people walked along the deep dense forest path for half an hour, and it was a wide square.
But at this moment, it is like the only human track that appears in the wilderness mountains and forests, and it is incompatible with the surrounding dense forests and mountains.
Why bother, naturally, he also looks at the surrounding environment.
Although it is known as the forbidden area of the royal city, it is incompatible with the style of the royal city.
Although Wangcheng seems to be the most prosperous place in the entire Qingwei Continent, every inch of land is expensive, and it is very lively.
Being able to have their own house in the royal city is already the wish of many light mainlanders, after all, if you want to buy a villa in the royal city, the price you pay is probably something that many people can't earn in a lifetime.
However, for a wealthy family like the Four Great Families, they are already the highest existence in the entire royal city, and whether it is financial resources or power, they are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Therefore, with these rich and powerful families, the entire royal city is a prosperous scene.
But at this moment, the forbidden place where they are can only be described as desolate, like an ancient forest that no one has ever visited.
However, this matter is also understandable, after all, nearly half of the continent is a forbidden area, and the queen will not be everywhere, so naturally there will be a large area that has not been developed, and it is so desolate.
Even this square, which is extremely discordant with the surrounding environment, must have been opened up for this selection.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please wait here for a while, this is the only time you have to rest before the official selection begins. ”
Luan Wenzhi also came here with a group of people, and after telling her about it, she left, and she didn't know what to wait for these candidates.
Since it was the only relaxation time before the selection, everyone present was also in groups of three or five, and the people they were familiar with sat together.
The square of thousands of people is inevitably a little noisy.
He Ku had already entered with the disciples of the Shuiyun Academy.
Shui Yun Xue Miyamoto has eight people who have entered the final successor selection, but Yun Che and Yun Zhongce have grievances with He Ku, and they don't deal with the Shui family sisters, so they naturally leave the six.
Why bother at this moment, there are naturally Shui Ningjiao, Shui Ningrou, Jing Hanqing, and Yan Gaoyu and Pang Qiuling, two disciples who successfully entered the selection of successors with the selection of Wang Cheng.
Yan Gaoyu was a little older, eighteen years old, and he had only broken through the ninth order of the mortal realm.
And Pang Qiuling was a thirteen-year-old girl who had reached the fifth order of the Mortal Realm in cultivation.
He Ku was very strange in his heart, how did Jing Hanqing stand out in the selection of the royal city, this guy is the same age as He Ku, but he only has the cultivation of the fifth order of the mortal realm, and the talent of Ye Tian, the son of the Ye family, can actually be killed from the fierce selection of the royal city.
A few people sat around, and Shui Ningjiao took special care of a few people, and carefully told a few people.
Shui Ningjiao talked endlessly, and Yan Gaotang and Pang Qiuling both listened attentively to some of the information they told.
But Shui Ningrou lowered her head and glanced at He Ku from time to time, but He Ku listened a little distracted, not knowing what she was thinking.
Jing Hanqing was looking left and right, not listening at all, but the look in his eyes was a little bright from time to time.
After explaining some of the things told by the elders in the family, Shui Ningjiao was also a little dry-mouthed, looking at He Ku in a daze and Jing Hanqing who was completely absent-minded, she was also a little sad.
Seeing this scene, Jing Hanqing hurriedly pulled over He Ku and introduced to him one by one the children of the four major families and the three university palaces among the hundred people in the royal city he had just seen.
"The group of people over there are all from the Ai family, one of the four major families, most of them are juniors of the Ai family, and it should be noted that the woman in the light blue dress is the one who is wearing a light blue dress. That woman is the most outstanding of the junior of the Ai family, Ai Xi, at the age of sixteen, is already a ninth-order existence in the Mortal Realm, and her reputation is already comparable to Senior Sister Ning Jiao. ”
Listening to Jing Hanqing's introduction, He Ku looked in the direction he pointed, the so-called Ai Xi, the junior of the Ai family, was the person who bought the cup in He Ku's hand in Anhai City before.
I saw that she was wearing a light blue dress, her cold temperament was particularly outstanding among the Ai family, and the longbow behind her was also a light blue light, and her temperament was very compatible.
He will not forget that the cup that Ai Xi took from his hand was sold for a lot of money at the auction of the Guest Chamber of Commerce.
However, at that time, He Ku covered his appearance with a black robe, and changed his voice, presumably Ai Xi couldn't recognize that He Ku, who was in the limelight in Shuiyun Academy, was the little guy who sold this cup that day.
The rest of the Ai family is male and female, but they are all dominated by Ai Xi, and a few of them can't even see through the cultivation, presumably the Ai family is quite powerful.
After all, the age limit for the selection of successors this time is thirty years old, and it is very likely that the Nirvana realm and even the Tateyama realm under the age of thirty will exist.
He Ku was thinking about it, Jing Hanqing's voice came again, "That is the Guo family of the four major families in the name of business, if you want to talk about the Guo family, you have to mention Guo Jiayun, this is also comparable to the existence of Shui Ningjiao's reputation, but she has been famous for a long time, and she is a popular person in the Guo family now, and her cultivation has reached the realm of Lishan." ”
He looked at it, but he didn't expect Guo Jiayun to also participate in this grand event. He Ku has had many contacts with this person as an old man in a black robe, and he can indeed feel the powerful cultivation from her, and he has reached the Lishan realm at the age of only twenty-six or seven, and he is really the top genius in this light continent.
The man next to her is her younger brother Guo Qilin, but he is only eighteen years old, and he is already in the Nirvana realm, and the status of the two sisters and brothers in the Guo family is not ordinary, and they have gradually gained the momentum of becoming the head of the young family. And the Guo family has always put interests first, and the number of them in this selection is also the largest among the seven major forces, but several of them are from the line of opposition to Guo Jiayun, and the Guo family is probably not very harmonious. Jing Hanqing added.
He Ku naturally knew Guo Qilin, after all, as the host of the auction of the Guest Chamber of Commerce, this person also appeared on a big scene.
But He Ku didn't expect him to have such a close relationship with Guo Jiayun, and the Guo family, with their strong financial resources and the decisive judgment of the head of the family, won 14 of the 100 places in Wangcheng, and was undoubtedly the biggest winner in the selection of Wangcheng.
But why bother, I didn't know that the factional dispute of the Guo family was so fierce, and even a capable and bewitching existence like Guo Jiayun would not be supported.
The struggle between the various families is naturally normal, but in the face of such a huge event, there are still disagreements, and it is really a bit surprising that two factions of people with different intentions will be dispatched.
However, thinking about her first encounter with the merchant in Anping City, I knew that this woman's temper was probably not as respectful as that in front of the black-robed old man.
At this moment, she is also talking to the Guo family with a straight face.
After all, the Guo family is a businessman, and interests are the only truth in their eyes, so the family struggle will inevitably become more intense.
"As for respecting the family. Jing Hanqing looked in the other direction, "This time it turned out to be Jing Ziyou and Jing Siwang who were dispatched. Both of them were geniuses of the younger generation among the children of the Jing family, and they had reached the cultivation level of the ninth order of the Mortal Realm at the age of seventeen and eighteen respectively. ”
He Ku also looked over, unlike other families, the Jing family was obviously dominated by men, and there were only one or two women in the team of more than a dozen people.
Under the idea that women are strong and men are weak in this light continent, this is a bit unusual.
"Why is there so much more men than women in this family?" he asked aloud.
This may have something to do with the uniqueness of the Jing family, which is that men make up the majority of the children, so men and women are trained in very different ways. The competition between men is harsh and cruel, and they are sent to work for the family at an early age, and the training of women is fine clothes and food, resources are taken at will, carefully taught, and the protection of women is also extremely excessive.
Therefore, even if this successor is selected, the best women will not be sent to participate, because if there is any accident in this selection, the Jing family will not be able to bear it.
If I'm not mistaken, these two girls must have lost the big competition in the clan before they were chosen to participate in the selection of the heirs. ”
Jing Hanqing's explanation made He Ku suddenly enlightened, Jing Jia's unique approach, it is no wonder that Jing Hanqing was sent to join the Shuiyun Academy from an early age, which is also a way for the Jing family to cultivate men.
But at this time, in front of everyone, why bother to ask too much about the Jing family, after all, Jing Hanqing is from the Jing family, and it is still his secret in the Shuiyun Academy.
Jing Hanqing also deliberately avoided staying too much on this issue, after all, the things he knew about the Jing family were already a little too detailed, and it would inevitably arouse suspicion when he said it.
Changing the topic, Jing Hanqing talked about the Ye family again: "Speaking of the Ye family, we have to mention the story of Ye Tian and his thirteen sisters.
Ye Tian is the only man among the juniors of the Ye family, and many of his sisters are extremely accustomed to him, and they have cultivated his arrogant character, which can be regarded as a well-known deed in the royal city.
Moreover, Ye Tian himself is also a person who is not good at cultivation, but he can't stand the cultivation of the Ye family's elixir, so now he also has the cultivation of the fifth order of the mortal realm, which can barely be regarded as a past that can be seen.
And he also likes ......"
Jing Hanqing still wanted to say something, but suddenly remembered that this was not a casual conversation with He in the other courtyard, and Shui Ningjiao was close to him.
Turning his head, Jing Hanqing was stunned again, how could he not write a book by coincidence, just as he was talking about this person, the main lord came.
There was an arrogant voice behind him: "Who of you is what?"
......
