Chapter 268: The Tea Party Begins

The Xiuwu Tea Party was held as scheduled.

Lin Qingxuan and Nangong Yao came together, and behind them were three expressionless and indifferent young people.

These three are none other than the newly rising young martial artists of Panlong Academy, Chu Jiehe, Tao Valve, and Tu Youcheng.

However, only Lin Chen was missing.

The five of them came to the top of Bulao Mountain, and Chun Shi saw an unforgettable scene.

On the top of the huge peak, there is a hole with a diameter of more than ten acres, and a few feet down in it, is the boiling magma, which is red and hot and exudes a strong smell of sulfur, like the entrance to hell.

The temperature around the crater was extremely high, and if you stood for a few seconds, you would sweat like rain.

Only powerful martial cultivators can endure it, staying here for a long time, and the others don't dare to approach at all.

The suspended ring of the competition was also set up.

It is connected by dozens of iron chains the thickness of elephant legs, and in the center is a square-shaped platform, the area is not very large, just over two acres, so that it hangs just above the magma.

Even, everyone can notice that the bottom of the ring has been burned red, and it seems that it may melt at any time.

To dare to compete in such a place by force does require extraordinary courage and strength to defy the sky.

"What a terrible place! If a volcano erupts here, it will at least affect a radius of thousands of miles, right?" Nangong Yao clutched his chest, obviously frightened.

"It should be," Lin Qingxuan nodded, looking around, "It seems that they have all been arranged, and there are a lot of people here." ”

Along the edge of the mountain, every zhang or so, there are a table and several seats, at this moment has gathered many family heads, young Tianjiao who participated in the tea party.

At first glance, you can see at least a few hundred people, and the scene is chaotic.

"Distinguished guests of Panlong Academy, please come over here!" Suddenly, a young man with handsome eyebrows came over to greet him.

After asking, I found out that the Xiuwu Tea Party was held this time, led by the three Tianmai families.

They are the Mu family, the Ren family and the Baili family, this young man is a half-step martial artist of the Baili family, called Baili River.

As soon as everyone was seated, someone next to them was smiling.

Turning his head, he turned out to be a person from the "Qingyang Sect".

This time, the "Qingyang Sect" came to Dugu Liuxiang, Ji Ziyi and the ancestor of the Long family.

"It turned out to be two younger siblings!" Lin Qingxuan smiled.

Although she rarely leaves the "Hundred Flowers Peak", she knows that Lin Chen has many women, and she also knows that Lin Chen actually controls the "Qingyang Sect".

"I've seen my sister," Dugu Liuxiang walked over with a smile, "May I ask my sister, did you see my husband?

"No, he's mysterious, he doesn't know what to do. Lin Qingxuan replied.

"It's going to be fine, Lin Chen said he was coming. Ji Ziyi also smiled.

The four women looked at each other and smiled, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

"Ouch, my brother Chen, his vision is quite tricky, and the women he is looking for are the best. Nangong Yao sighed.

Everyone chatted and paid attention to the movements around them.

In fact, they also noticed that many people secretly looked here.

Not only because of the famous names of Panlong Academy and Qingyang Sect, but also because there are several beautiful women sitting here.

Especially Lin Qingxuan, her dusty temperament makes her seem to have a halo, like a fairy in the sky, which is particularly eye-catching.

Waited a while.

More and more strong people arrived, and a terrifying aura was connected together, so domineering that it seemed to be able to suppress everything.

However, among these people, nine out of ten are strangers and have never met at all.

Only Ji Ziyi has followed Lin Chen to the Liu family, and has seen some of them at the head of the family.

The sun is rising.

Everyone was waiting a little impatiently.

One of the organizers, the Baili family, only then began to read out the list of forces participating in the tea party.

At the same time, the forces that read their names will display the rewards they brought this time in public.

"The Tianmai Wang family, the prizes contributed are two five-hundred-year-old Xiaolu grasses, 20,000 'Yuan Qi Pills', and a king-level martial arts. ”

"Tianmai Nangong Family, the prize contributed is one thousand-year-old Zizhi, twenty beast caves, and fifty king-level weapons. ”

"The second-class sect Liuyun Sect, the prize contributed is a piece of the emperor-level medicine field, a hundred seeds of the emperor-level elixir, and 30,000 'Yuan Qi Pills'. ”

……

Everyone was dazzled, and they couldn't help but be moved.

All the forces involved in the tea party exceeded one hundred and fifty, and even the people of the personal family came.

The various prizes are piled up and are amazingly rich.

"Yaoyao, does that Tianmai Nangong family have anything to do with you?" Lin Qingxuan said curiously.

"It's my family," Nangong Yao replied, "However, my father's branch has no status in the family and has long been marginalized." I grew up and received little benefit from my family, so I didn't have much of a sense of belonging. ”

"I see. Everyone was stunned.

Time goes on and on.

Lin Qingxuan also took out the reward given by Panlong Academy, which was a royal-level martial arts.

This reward immediately moved countless people, but they didn't expect Sect Master Ye to be so generous.

Those Tianmai family celestial arrogance are also ready to move, and they all secretly swear that they must win the first place.

Ji Ziyi represented the "Qingyang Sect", but he did not hesitate, and directly gave 50,000 "Yuan Qi Pills".

Immediately afterwards, a waiter brought fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as a fragrant cup of hot tea.

Although these teas are not as good as "Gojin tea", they are about the same, and it is said that the two teas are grown together at a distance of no more than five zhang.

"Since everyone is here, then let's announce the ranking," the head of the Baili family, the one called Baili Cangyun, said loudly in public, "The first to start, of course, is the qualifying tournament, and you can participate in the half-step martial arts and above...... In addition, we have listed a few seeded players who can advance directly to the semi-finals. ”

Seeded players?!

Everyone pricked up their ears and listened carefully.

"The so-called seeded player is the one who is recognized as the strongest," Baili Cangyun continued, "I don't think everyone will have any objections if it is announced." There were two people selected from Panlong Academy, one was Qingxuan Fairy Lin Qingxuan, and the other was Nangong Yao. There have been some changes in the Qingyang Sect, so there is no stronger one, and no one has been selected for the time being......"

As soon as these words came out, many people were stunned.

What's the matter, there's no Lin Chen?!

Now, in the entire Immortal Mountain, the strongest one is Lin Chen, and he is the chief disciple of Panlong Academy, known as the candidate for the next head of the academy.

Lin Qingxuan and Nangong Yao, everyone has no objections, but without Lin Chen, this is worth playing.

Basically, everyone thinks in their hearts that Lin Chen's strength can even be compared to the master of the Ye Academy, the proper rookie king, and the identity of the seed player is stable.

"Wait a minute, Baili Family Master," Dugu Liuxiang stood up, "I have an objection! Why is there no Lin Chen?"

"I'm sorry, here's the thing," Baili Cangyun said quietly, "The three major Heavenly Vein families of our organizer have already discussed it in advance, Lin Chen is indeed extraordinary, but none of his famous battles have been witnessed by ourselves." In addition, his cultivation realm is also too low, it is said that he is only a half-step grandmaster, which is the lowest realm in the whole field. Therefore, he can participate in this tea party, and he needs to start from the first battle, and the seeded players don't have to think about it. ”

The audience suddenly burst into laughter, many people laughed so much that their mouths were crooked, and some even gave a thumbs up to Baili Cangyun.

Because of Lin Chen's strong rise, everyone's eyes were red with jealousy, and they couldn't wait to see the jokes.

"Since that's the case, it doesn't matter," Dugu Liuxiang sneered, "In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is useless. ”

Fools can hear it, Dugu Liuxiang has something to say.

Baili Cangyun was not easy to attack in front of so many people, so he gritted his teeth secretly, just pretending not to hear it.

It didn't take long for the ranking matches to be announced.

A huge stone monument with the names of both sides engraved on it was carried out and erected in the northeast corner of the crater for everyone to see.

"Within half an hour, the Xiuwu Tea Party officially opened, and those who did not show up at that time were deemed to have automatically abstained. Baili Cangyun looked up at the sky and said loudly.

Suddenly, many people's eyes fell on the seat that originally belonged to Lin Chen.

The seats were still empty.
