Chapter 113: The Beginning
The Imperial City of the Heavenly Wind Country has always been the most prosperous place in the entire Heavenly Wind Country, so there are often a large number of people and horses coming and going, but on this day, in the five different directions of the Imperial City, five huge teams of demon beasts galloped from the sky. And on the back of the demon beast, there are a large number of people standing there, standing in the wind, their clothes fluttering, like immortals.
Seeing such a huge team, one person in the imperial city suddenly became excited, these people didn't seem to be the people that the young man said that day, and now that they are here, isn't it equivalent to the windfall that has arrived. Thinking of this, the man stopped staying, but walked towards an inn.
"Shaoxia, the person you asked me to wait for that day has now arrived outside the imperial city. Walking into a room in the inn, the man knocked on the door.
With a creak, the door suddenly opened, and a young man in white with long hair and a shawl appeared at the door, "Have they arrived?" With that, the young man in white threw a spirit stone at the man, and then walked out of the inn.
The boy is naturally Li Youran, since he came to the imperial city a few days ago, Li Youran found an inn to live in, and then found a small servant in the inn, and asked him to wait at the gate of the imperial city all day long, and when he saw a large team of demon beasts coming to the imperial city, he would come to inform him. Sure enough, after waiting for a few days, I waited for the notice.
Walking out of the inn, Li Youran sensed the breath, and galloped in one direction, and after a while, Li Youran came to Biyun and the others.
"Disciples, see Sect Master, Elders. I have seen all the senior brothers leisurely. ”
"You kid came early. Sect Master Qiu Wuxian scolded with a smile, then looked at the Great Elder beside him and said, "It turned out that this kid arrived first and waited for us here." ”
"What did I say, this kid really came to the Imperial City first!" the Great Elder said with a smile as he touched his beard.
"That's not it, you're old and calculating, of course you can hit whatever you say!" Sect Master Qiu Wuxian said with a smile on his face, and then looked at Li Youran again, "Hmm, your kid has reached the peak of the Earth Spirit Pill Realm? Yes, yes, you can show your glory if you want to come to this event!"
"What?" Hearing this, the Great Elder was taken aback, looked at Li Youran carefully, and said in shock: "What kind of freak are you kid, you were only at the peak of the Little Spirit Pill Realm more than half a month ago, but I didn't expect that you had already reached the peak of the Earth Spirit Pill Realm after only half a month of not seeing you, you are really ......"
As soon as these words came out, many of Biyun's disciples were also shocked, Li Youran actually reached the peak of the Earth Spirit Pill Realm in such a short period of time, with such a cultivation, only Senior Brother Hanyun and Second Senior Brother Yundong could surpass him in Biyun Sect.
"This is a good thing, it seems that our Biyun Sect is destined to rise this time!" said Sect Leader Qiu Wuxian with a smile. "Let's go, follow me to our Biyun Sect's residence in the Imperial City. So saying, he walked forward.
"You kid is good, you have reached such a realm in such a short time, I'm afraid it won't take much time to catch up with me or even the senior brother!" Seeing Li Youran approaching, Yundong said with a smile.
"There is still some distance from the two senior brothers. Li said humbly.
"Senior Brother Youran," at this time, Han Yun looked at Li Youran, "You can have such a big increase in your realm in such a short period of time, it naturally shows your talent, so you don't have to be modest." ”
"Senior brother praised it!" Li Youran responded with a smile.
"Let's just get down to business tomorrow, so let's go have a drink later." Hanyun said with a smile.
"There is no reason for the senior brother to invite him. "All the disciples of the Biyun Sect are all Ying and Dao.
......
A day passed quietly, and on this day, the palace that was quite solemn on weekdays was quite lively, without him, just because a grand event was to be held in the palace today!
Follow the sect to the palace, on the wide platform in front of the Taihe Palace, there are six distinct seating groups, which are the five major sects and the imperial court. And on the huge square in front of the wide platform, there is already a large-scale martial arts platform standing at this moment.
With the arrival of the people from the major sects, the platform was also lively, and Li Youran found that the sect leader Qiu Wuxian did not follow them, and the sect masters of the other major sects did not appear. And the only people who appeared at this moment on behalf of the imperial court were Yuan Bawu, the general of Bawu, the old prime minister Nie, the blood-clothed marquis Xiang Yan, and a prince of the royal family. As for the emperor, he did not appear either.
"Great Elder, why aren't the sect masters and emperors of the major sects here?" Seeing this, Li Youran couldn't help asking.
"They're going to show up, but not now. "The Great Elder and the God were there. At this moment, the door of the Taihe Hall opened, and six figures slowly walked out of it.
One of them was dressed in an imperial robe and wearing a crown, and it was the current emperor of the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, Zao Wou-ki. The two beside him were the Chixia Valley Sect Master Luo Yu and the Biyun Sect Sect Master Qiu Wuxian, and on either side were the Purple Yang Sect Sect Master Wu Yang and the Cold Moon Sect Leader Duanmu Qingxue, and next to him were the Heavenly Star Sect Sect Master Tianxing Zi Duan Tianxing.
"I've seen my emperor, I've seen the sect master!" six people appeared, and everyone saluted.
"No courtesy. Emperor Zao Wou-Ki said with a smile, then glanced at the sect masters of the five major sects, and said with a smile, "Then I will announce it as I said before." ”
"Your Majesty, please. Several people responded with a smile.
Zhao Wou-Ki took two steps forward and said loudly: "Today, the big competition jointly held by the five major sects and the imperial court is the beginning, with the bloody marquis of the imperial court serving as the referee, and the thirty people participating in the competition will go to the competition platform in the square to wait for a while. After finishing speaking, the participating disciples of the five major sects and the imperial court walked to the competition platform separately. Originally, there were far more than 30 contestants in previous years, but this year was different from the past, so the emperor only gave five entries to each faction after consulting with the suzerains of several major sects.
At this time, many disciples realized that there was no sword in the crowd. And Li Youran looked at the few figures that Leng Yuezong walked out, but to his disappointment, there was no masked girl in white clothes that he saw outside the imperial city that day.
"Later, you wait for thirty people to draw lots at the Bloody Clothes Marquis, and the first one will choose the opponent freely, the winner will advance, and the loser will be eliminated. People of the same force are not allowed to challenge each other. Everyone has a chance to challenge, if you are defeated before the challenge, as long as you can defeat another person who has defeated others, you can still advance, of course, if you defeat the challenger before the active challenge, you will directly advance and lose the opportunity to challenge. The last fifteen losers scuffled on the stage, and the last one managed to stay in the top 16. The top sixteen will play against each other, the winner will advance, the loser will be eliminated, the top eight will be taken, and then the top eight will be played against the other seven, so as to determine the ranking, the top four will be qualified, as for what the qualifications are, the elders of your sect will tell you after you go back! The first three rewards will be announced after the game!" Emperor Zao Wou-Ki glanced at the Bloody Marquis behind him, and then said, "Then, let's start!
At this time, the figure of the Bloody Marquis flashed, and he came to the competition platform, looking at the people in front of him, the Bloody Marquis laughed, and the palm of his right hand was flipped, and a long tube appeared on his hand, and the Bloody Marquis said: "After drawing lots, go to your own pillar according to the number, and then fight according to the number, which of you will come first." After speaking, the bloody marquis waved his left hand, and thirty pillars slowly rose around the competition platform, and one to thirty were clearly written on the pillars.
"I'll do it first. A crisp voice sounded, and a slender figure walked out slowly, it was Meng Yu, the senior disciple of the Cold Moon Sect. Li Youran looked at the only white-clothed and masked girl in the Leng Yue Gate, and his face couldn't help but be filled with disappointment, it wasn't her, it wasn't her.
"Okay, then let the disciples of your Cold Moon Sect draw lots first. The Bloody Marquis smiled and stretched out the long barrel in his hand.
Meng Yu stretched out his hand casually, and when he withdrew it, there was already a small piece of paper in his hand, and a "three" was clearly written on it. The crisp voice sounded again, "Number Three." After speaking, Meng Yu's body moved slightly, and it landed on the top of the pillar with the word "three" written on it around the competition platform.
"Go ahead. Bloody Hou said.
Everyone drew lots in turn, and Li Youran looked at the piece of paper in his hand, and then swept towards the pillar with "nine" written on it. And Biyun Sect went to several other people, Hanyun was the second, Yundong turned out to be the twenty-ninth, and the remaining two Lin Zun were the thirteenth, and Fang Hong was the fifteenth. And No. 1 is the second disciple of Tianxingmen, the eldest grandson of Prime Minister Nie Shuai.
