Chapter 62: Selection of Successors
"Why bother, Senior Brother, Ye Tian came to you, that guy kept saying that he would invite you to dinner, I'm afraid it's not that simple, you have to be careful." Jing Hanqing told He Ku what happened at the gate of the school palace
He Ku had expected Ye Tian's arrival, but it didn't mean that he would go out to see this trouble.
Even if he didn't hear what Ye Tian said that day, he knew that this guy was not good, so why was he unhappy.
"Don't worry, I'm not interested in meeting him. He Ku casually responded to Jing Hanqing's words.
On the other hand, at the gate of the Shuiyun Academy, many disciples were still waiting here, looking forward to what kind of sparks He Ku and Ye Tian would rub together.
Ye Tian and a group of guards were arrogant, facing the onlookers of the disciples of the Shuiyun Academy Palace in front of him, and he did not forget to show his chic demeanor at all.
After all, Shui Ningjiao may be watching herself secretly, she can't have the slightest slackness, and she must show her best side to her sweetheart at any time.
Ye Tian thought like this, with endless self-satisfaction in his heart, I am really a delicate and gentle person.
However, half an hour passed, a quarter of an hour passed, half an hour passed, and He Ku still did not appear.
Rao is Ye Tian is thick-skinned enough is also a little embarrassed at the moment, he was just hung up like this, but he was treated as a joke by the many disciples present.
Ye Tian gave Ye Sheng, a disciple of the Ye family who was watching the lively Shuiyun Academy, wink.
The latter indicated that he had already gone to look for him, but he was turned away.
"Then you won't call him at the door!" Ye Tian transmitted to Ye Sheng with anger.
Ye Sheng had no choice but to leave silently, he hadn't actually looked for He Ku before, but when he saw Jing Hanqing go back, he knew that someone had already notified him, so he didn't have to make an extra trip.
But who knows why this has no intention of showing up at all, and now it seems that he has to go by himself.
"Senior Brother He, Senior Brother Heku! There are people looking for him outside the gate of the Xue Palace!" Ye Sheng himself is just an outer disciple, and he is not familiar with He Ku, so it is naturally not good to enter his other courtyard directly, so he has to call outside the courtyard.
"Thank you, junior brother, for telling me, I won't see you!"
Ye Sheng didn't know what to do for a while, why was he so arrogant, he completely ignored Ye Tian's face. But he could only go back to the gate of the school palace to talk back to Ye Tian.
Ye Tian listened to Ye Sheng's transmission, his face became ugly, this guy didn't dare to come out to meet after hanging for so long.
But he is even more difficult to ride a tiger now, if he leaves like this, doesn't it mean that he is cowardly, what is the meaning of the menacing arrival, and the onlookers must not laugh at themselves.
But if you directly break through the gate of Shui Yun Xue Palace and go directly to the door to find trouble, then I am afraid that the consequences will not be borne by yourself, and it will make Shui Ning Jiaojiao annoyed.
After weighing it, Ye Tian naturally understood that staying here any longer would only make him lose face in vain.
He had no choice but to leave a sentence: "Why bother cowards, one day you won't be able to escape!" and then turned around and left with everyone.
"Didn't you come to invite him to dinner? How did the previous admiration become a coward?" someone with good deeds shouted to Ye Tian.
And Ye Tian didn't want to turn around and defend anything, he acted like a fool today, why didn't he even show his face, but he came with a fierce momentum and left in disgrace.
Ye Tian had another point of hatred for He Ku in his heart.
This farce at the gate of the Shuiyun Academy Palace has just become a joke among the disciples after dinner.
The show of the Ye family's son did not make any waves in the royal city, even if he was a well-known gentleman.
But the atmosphere of the entire royal city gradually became lively and tense, just because the day of the selection of the successor was getting closer and closer.
There are already a lot of people from other cities in the city, and the business of the major inns and chambers of commerce is also extremely hot.
Wangcheng ushered in the most lively event in recent years, and naturally these merchants will not miss the good opportunity to make a fortune.
Time is approaching, and people's eyes are gradually turning to the north.
That area is the forbidden area of this light continent.
Just because it is the queen's private territory, it is the size of half of the Qingwei Continent, and the land entrance to this area is north of the royal city.
The selection of the final successor will also be held here.
All the candidates are nervous and longing, it belongs to the queen's back garden, and with this selection of heirs, it is a blessing to be lucky to be able to enter it.
But after all, there are only a few thousand people in the entire continent who can enter the selection of successors, and more people are pouring into the royal city, just to get a glimpse of the style of this grand event.
And when everyone was looking forward to the arrival of the successor selection, in the face of such a lively grand occasion, He Ku still did not show interest in it, and still only took care of his own cultivation.
Just three days before the selection of the successor, the Wangcheng City Lord's Mansion had already sent someone to send a hundred pieces of letterhead to the hundreds of people in the royal city who participated in the selection of the successor.
He bothered to receive this thing.
It informs a series of precautions for the opening of the heir selection in three days, and will be able to enter the forbidden area with this object at that time, after all, this thing represents the hundred people selected by Wang Cheng.
As for the candidates from other cities, they also got letterheads from the city lords' mansions, and everyone was looking forward to gathering in the forbidden area three days later.
In the past three days, the royal city was filled with a lively atmosphere, and the major chambers of commerce did not hesitate to spend huge sums of money to buy the broadcast rights from the hands of the royal city to create a spiritual power screen, so that the viewers in the royal city can watch the real-time live broadcast screen and witness the grand occasion of the selection of the successor.
After all, what the scene in the forbidden area was like was something that all the people in the Qingwei Continent were curious about.
But what can really step into that land is only the thousands of people who have gone through layers of selection, and more people can only get a glimpse of it through the spiritual power screen.
This is also a strategy for major chambers of commerce and families to attract customers, and with the existence of spiritual power screens, they can naturally attract many customers.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye.
On this day, the successor is chosen.
In the royal city, almost everyone came to the north, and this is the entrance to the forbidden land of the royal city.
In the northern part of the royal city of the Qingwei Continent, there is a huge square, which is many times larger than the square in front of the city lord's mansion.
Early this morning, people began to gather here, and it is even more crowded at the moment.
Those who wanted to join in the excitement had already surrounded the road outside the square.
Not to mention the candidates from various cities, who have long been unable to contain the excitement in their hearts, waiting here for the upcoming selection of successors.
At this time, the grand occasion far exceeded the selection of Wang Cheng.
After all, it is the last layer of selection in the entire continent, and as long as you can stand out from it, you will be able to ascend to the sky in one step.
There is no one who does not look forward to this, and no one who does not want to be the one who ascends to the sky, and if there is anything to say, then there is nothing but suffering.
He Ku was almost dragged here by Jing Hanqing today, if he hadn't been threatened by Shui Ningjiao, and he wouldn't have thought about participating in the selection if he didn't bring He Ku, he wouldn't have worked so hard.
He thought that he would definitely not be able to avoid this matter, so he had to obey.
After all, this place was obtained at a great cost to the Shui Yun Academy, and only Shui Yingyue knows best.
This time, the selection of the successor, no matter what, the Shuiyun Academy Palace will not let He Bitter waste it.
Naturally, with the team of Shuiyun Academy Palace, they also came to the square, looking at this huge appearance, why bother with a headache for no reason. Why is it that I am always entangled in troubles, and I just want to cultivate quietly?
The disciples of the four major families and the three great palaces accounted for the vast majority of the hundred places in the royal city, and He Ku faintly saw some familiar faces, such as Guo Jiayun and Guo Qilin of the Guo family, and even Ye Tian of the Ye family.
Among the disciples of the Shuiyun Academy, Yun Zhongce and Yun Che of the Yun family stared at He Ku all the way, and the hostility in their eyes was undisguised.
Why bother ignoring these, the sum of the two of them is not enough to fight by themselves, so why care.
Looking at this vast crowd, why bother with a lot of sorrow, but once it comes, it will be safe. Although they are reluctant in every way, they are all about to embark on this successor selection, so how can there be any reason to escape.
He also kept looking at the legendary forbidden place.
To the north of the plaza is a path that leads to the dark forest, which is the entrance to the forbidden land.
The entrance is guarded all year round, this is the queen's personal guard, I heard that you must at least reach the fifth level of cultivation in the Nirvana realm before you can become the queen's personal guard.
And not only does it require that it be a woman, but it must also be selected by the queen herself to determine whether she is qualified to be one of the guards.
At this moment, the entrance is guarded by four queen guards.
I saw that they were dressed in golden armor, and their expressions were indifferent, even though the whole square was extremely noisy, but they still didn't hear it, as if they were like four golden statues, they didn't move at all, and they didn't even move their eyes for half a minute.
The eyes of many people present were firmly locked on these four people, that sassy and heroic posture made many people lose their minds for a while, and it was also the dream of many people to be selected to be the queen's guard, but when they really saw them, they were ashamed.
You must know that the strong people of the Nirvana realm can be regarded as not weak in the entire Qingwei Continent, and they are considered to be the mainstays of the four major families, and they are willing to become the attendants and guards of the queen's side, which is undoubtedly willing to dedicate themselves to the queen.
With the three bells of the royal city ringing in the sky, the eyes of everyone in the square became solemn, which also announced the official beginning of the selection of successors.
Everyone's eyes were on the entrance of the forbidden land, and at this moment, Luan Wenzhi, the lord of the royal city, was walking out of it.
"With the grace of the Queen, the Qingwei Continent lives and works in peace and contentment, and sings and dances. But the queen has recently come up with the idea of retiring, and this selection event is specially held to find a successor, and when the queen herself teaches, it will give way to the heir.
Ladies and gentlemen, you are all elected by the cities, and you are all likely to be the only lucky ones on that continent.
However, before you can do so, you need to go through the test of the Queen, it is a fierce and brutal battle, good luck to you.
Now, the selection of successors has officially begun!"
