Chapter 7 The Ceremony Begins
Gu Fan had been cultivating for a few days before the ceremony began, and the firmer the initial realm foundation was laid, the smoother the cultivation in the future.
It was only half a foot away from the innate realm. Gu Fan thought in his heart.
In just a few days, he turned from a cultivation waste material and was about to become an innate powerhouse, this kind of cultivation speed, even the well-informed Yue Lao was amazed. In his words, it is: "This kind of talent, even if it is a sow, I am afraid it can be cultivated to the peak of the world." ”
Gu Fan changed into a set of clean clothes and washed up. It was almost time to go, and my father sent someone to call him.
Gu Chongshan and the elders looked at Gu Fan and the other children of the family, their eyes full of worry. Although these children are not as talented as those of several other families, they are their own flesh and blood after all, and if they go to face those geniuses now, they will definitely be injured.
"I hope you can win glory for your family and prove yourself. Gu Chongshan said majestically. "My Gu family has never had anyone who is greedy for life and afraid of death, but the eldest husband can bend and stretch, and the gentleman can take revenge, ten years is not too late. ”
I hope I can finally get out of the Imperial City safely. Gu Chongshan thought to himself.
"Other clansmen, hurry up and pack your things and be ready to retreat at any time. Gu Chongshan looked at the clansmen and said loudly.
"Yes, Master. The crowd responded in unison.
Gu Chongshan straightened up and said loudly: "Let's go." ”
The elders and Gu Fan followed behind Gu Chongshan and walked towards the palace.
Today's imperial city is particularly lively, and people from all over the city gather here to witness the grand ceremony. There are also teenagers who claim to be geniuses and want to take this opportunity to appear in front of the world.
Compared with others, Gu Fan and his party are very low-key, and they don't have a carriage, but others can still feel the momentum of the leader's strength.
"He is worthy of being a great general. The crowd chattered.
"It's a pity that the Gu family hasn't improved much in recent years, I'm afraid there aren't many good days. ”
"A starving camel is bigger than a horse, so think about how to get a wife. ”
"You, you, you don't open which pot. ”
Gu Chongshan walked on the road, as if he hadn't heard these discussions, and his face did not change. But a few elders and some juniors couldn't listen to it anymore, if it weren't for something more important, they really had to theorize well.
Gu Fan was also a little angry in his heart, but the decline of the family was indeed a fact, and if he wanted to change people's opinions, he had to be strong.
"It's okay, let's go ours, don't worry about outsiders. Gu Chongshan said lightly.
The group didn't get angry anymore.
When Gu Fan and his party were about to walk to the gate of the palace, a luxurious carriage drove over behind, and the backs of the two horses were brownish.
The person in the carriage lifted the curtains, looked through the window, and said, "Isn't this the waste young master of the Gu family? After speaking, he snorted coldly.
"That's right, an old piece of waste with a bunch of small waste. ”
"Gao Zhuang, what do you mean?" someone behind Gu Fan pointed at the person in the carriage and said angrily. This person is the second young master of the Gao family, Gao Zhuang, who is more favored than the eldest young master, and the head of the Gao family also intends to pass on the position of head of the family to him when he grows up.
"Your Gu family is almost unable to open the pot, go back to farming, you can still eat, unlike me, I don't have to worry about food and clothing, but I am also worried." Gao Zhuang pretended to be a pity, but anyone could hear the strong irony in his words.
"Little baby, you are looking for death!" the great elder couldn't bear it, and punched the carriage.
"That's enough!" Gu Chongshan's eyes were quick and he grabbed the Great Elder. Since the other party dares to be so provocative, there must be something to rely on.
"Old thing, believe it or not, I asked my dad to destroy your Gu family. Gao Zhuang was taken aback by the momentum of the Great Elder, although there was indeed someone secretly protecting him, but at such a close distance, he could still feel that if he was hit just now, he would either be killed or injured.
After Gu Chongshan took the Gu family's people to register at the guard at the gate of the palace, he slowly walked in.
Gao Zhuang lowered the curtain and narrowed his eyes, "This Gu Chongshan can really bear it, otherwise he can take this opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the Gu family." ”
This is the trap he set, and it is also the result of the discussion of several families, they know the temper of the great elder of the Gu family, as long as they use the method of agitation, they will definitely take the bait obediently, and then use this as an excuse to attack the Gu family, such a clever plan, but they were actually stopped by Gu Chongshan.
"Let's go in too. Gao Zhuang said outside the carriage.
After a morning, the audience, as well as this cultivator, had come to the center of the palace, which was also the place where the ceremony began.
On the high platform in the north, the emperor walked out slowly in a golden robe, and next to him was the delegation of the Great Qi Come, and Qi Yue was also among them. And then there are the two princes.
Gu Fan noticed it when she came out, and kept her head down to prevent being seen.
See Holy Lord. Everyone said in unison.
The emperor waved his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.
"Today, we hold a ceremony to worship the heavens, mainly to select talented and good seedlings, and focus on cultivating. Although the emperor's voice was not loud, it clearly reached everyone's ears.
I heard my father say that the emperor is at the pinnacle of congenital realm. Gu Fan thought to himself.
"Unlike previous years, this time there will be an embassy from the Great Qi Kingdom to visit, and at the same time, a few people with the highest talent will be selected to study in the Great Qi Kingdom. ”
The leader of the Great Qi Kingdom nodded. said: "Yes, I am Huang Ya, the right minister of Daqi, you have to behave well and strive to get a place, hehe." ”
Qi Yue behind him was also looking for the figure of that young man everywhere, since he lived in the imperial city, he would definitely come this opportunity.
"Let's get started. The emperor said to the second prince behind him.
"Yes. The second prince replied.
Then there is the opening dance, and the priestly ceremony, which is not much to see. The focus of everyone's attention is not here, but to see who among this group of juniors can stand at the top, whether it is the genius of the Gao family, the Yu family or the Han family, or a dark horse was born. As for the Gu family, no one thought about it.
"The second ring, force measurement!"
The right minister himself sat in front of the crowd, and beside him was a boulder. Right Phase:
"This is the dynamometer stone I specially brought from Daqi, hit it with all my strength, the innate realm stone will turn cyan, and the day after tomorrow will be yellow, every three inches is a boundary, the higher the number of inches lit up, the higher the cultivation in the same realm. ”
There is a slight pause on the right. "The top 20 will enter the third ring. ”
Everyone was eye-opening, they had always reported what realm they had reported before, that was what it was, and many indiscriminate deeds would not be discovered until the third ring, but this time it completely eliminated this situation.
Yue Lao was also attracted by the function of this stone, "The vast world is really wonderful. "He hadn't heard of this thing in his lifetime, since this is the case, then the innate and acquired realms can also be divided into high and low.
The contestants lined up one by one to wait for the test, while the right photo was recorded on the side.
"Heh!" a strong man blasted out, and the stone glowed with a faint yellow light, only more than two inches.
"Give your name, your age, go back and wait. ”
The strong man did so, and then bowed his head and went back, his strength, if he was not the first to come up, otherwise he would really be laughed at.
The day after tomorrow two inches
Three inches the day after tomorrow
One inch the day after tomorrow
The day after tomorrow five inches
The emperor looked at these children and shook his head, if it weren't for the children of a big family, how many dark horses could come out of this world. Wealthy families have used various drugs as a foreshadowing since childhood to dredge the meridians, and the starting point is much higher than that of ordinary people.
Boom! Another punch.
The yellow light flashed and there were twenty-four inches.
"Yes, the day after tomorrow. Right Xiang smiled and nodded.
"18 years old, Han family Han Long. The boy said.
The next person was a girl. It is also the strength of the peak of the day after tomorrow.
"15, Han Jia Han Meng. ”
The Han family really has a few good seedlings. Everyone thought to themselves, Han Long is 18 years old and has the peak of the day after tomorrow, Han Meng is only 15 years old, and he has the strength of the peak of the day after tomorrow, if he cultivates it well, the future is limitless.
In the next test, the Han family, the Gao family, and the Yu family all have a few people with good talents. The emperor also smiled and nodded when he saw it, with the strength of these children, they entered Daqi to study for a period of time, and they came back to protect their family and defend the country. As for the Gu family, except for Gu Fan, who has not yet been tested, no one has entered the top twenty.
"It's all tested, is there anyone who hasn't been on it?" asked the right minister.
Gu Fan was just about to get up.
"Lord Youxiang, the eldest young master of the Gu family, I haven't tested it yet. Gao Zhuang stood up and arched.
"Yes, Young Master Gu Fan, everyone is waiting to see your performance. Gao Zhuang said ill-intentionedly.
"Don't be rude!" the head of the Gao family stopped, but he didn't mean to scold at all.
Qi Yue looked at the young man who bowed his head, it turned out to be here.
"Is this the tutor of the Gao family? Isn't there anyone to teach?" Gu Fan walked out, he couldn't hide from what he should have come, and he didn't need to hide now, he could already prove himself.
"Juniors, this is the test. Gu Fan clenched his fists slightly to the right.
He stood in front of the boulder, his right arm shrunk and his legs bent. It took about half an hour to charge.
"Sensationalism. The crowd thought.
"I guess I knew I was going to make a fool of myself, deliberately. People talked.
"Heh!" Gu Fan roared, popping out at an extremely fast speed, and his right fist slammed into the stone.
Rumble!
The whole earth shook and the sky was filled with dust.
Gu Fan stood in place, under the sunlight, his figure was particularly conspicuous, standing up to the sky.
If it weren't for the right phase secretly fixing the stone, I'm afraid that Gu Fan would have knocked it away with one blow. Even so, the stone is still sunken in the shape of a fist.
When everyone was amazed, the dynamometer shone brightly, and the whole stone turned yellow. If twenty-four inches is the pinnacle of the day after tomorrow, then Gu Fan, what kind of realm is this!
