Xiao Mu left the Immortal Courtyard with Liang Chen in his arms and went to Chengtian Peak.

Gu Haoran stayed, of course, to solve Fang Kui's problem.

And Du Changchun also stayed.

But it was to stay by Liang Yuling's side.

Today's Inner Courtyard selection examination is related to the choice of all the new Inner Court disciples about the Peak Academy, so all the six courtyard masters must be present.

Not to mention, they themselves are the presiding judges of this assessment.

But Du Changchun and Gu Haoran could choose to go later.

Comparatively, they felt that what Fang Kui did today would have a more serious impact on Luming Academy, and even on the six major factions.

If it is not properly handled, the consequences are unpredictable.

Interestingly, whether it was the three major courtyard masters coming to the Immortal Academy, or Xiao Mu taking Liang Chen away at this moment, no one saw the figure of "Mr. Yao".

It's as if he's never been to Bright Peak.

When Xiao Mu returned to Chengtian Peak, Mr. Yao had already entered the Hall of Speech, which was the main venue for today's Inner Courtyard Examination.

Don't look at this person's huge size, but his steps are extremely athletic, and he can really be regarded as a flexible fat man.

Mr. Yao quietly returned to the Hall of Speech, neither to greet the Third Highness, nor to try to squeeze Cao Qing, the inspector of the Ruling Division, but slowly came to the side of a little fat man.

He smiled lightly, "You are the legendary Innate Dao Species?"

Sun Congsheng was stunned, looked back at Mr. Yao, confirmed that the other party was talking to him, and couldn't help but wonder: "Are you from Qianlong Yuan?"

Of course, this is not the telepathy between the fat man and the fat man, so at this moment, it is Mr. Yao's turn to show surprise.

"You can even recognize me?"

Sun Congsheng pursed his lips, shook his head and said, "Only people from Qianlong Yuan will wear this dark dragon black robe, you see you are fat...... It's all stretched out by the dragon......"

Mr. Yao blinked, and then realized that because he was mainly coming to Luming Academy to watch the ceremony today, rather than to collect intelligence, it was reasonable that he wore an "official uniform" and could be seen through by the other party at a glance.

In essence.

Qianlong Yuan was certainly not an institution subordinate to the imperial court.

But if you want to say that he is a sect, it's not true.

Therefore, generally in the cultivation world, everyone regards Qianlong Yuan as a loose cultivation organization like the Heaven and Earth Alliance.

However, the difference between the two is that Qianlong Yuan is only interested in two things.

Money.

and intelligence.

Yes.

In a sense, Qianlong Yuan, like the Adjudication Division, is the top intelligence agency in Daliang.

It's just that it's subordinate to the imperial court and has official attributes.

The other is more like a civil society organization.

That's where the fun comes in.

At least in the eyes of the majority of cultivators, although the Adjudication Division has the support of the royal family, its ability to gather intelligence is actually much inferior to that of the Hidden Dragon Yuan.

To use the simplest analogy.

Over the years, the biggest achievement made by the adjudication department is probably the establishment mechanism of life and death, which has not been recognized by various major factions, and it has definitely not played the role they expected anyway.

And what about the Hidden Dragon Abyss?

It has set up three of the most credible and authoritative lists in the cultivation world.

Qingyun List.

Dragon List.

Escape.

For example, Fang Kui, who went crazy in the Eternal Life Institute before, is the tanhua of this year's Qingyun List.

And the senior brother of Luming Academy, Zong Qingyang, is the top of the Dragon List!

These three major lists include almost all the amazing talents in the entire Liang cultivation world.

The reason why there is an "almost" in front of it.

It was at the beginning of Qianlongyuan's establishment that it was stated that the sect masters of the six major factions, as well as His Majesty the Emperor, were not included in the three lists, and they were all real people who had escaped from the Three Realms, and no one dared to comment on them.

Although this is obviously a sycophant and cowardly element in it, everyone also understands it.

After all, the above people are all god-like figures, who doesn't have a good face?

Who do you say is high, and who is low?

In case these bigwigs are not in a good mood, and it is a small matter to dismantle your Qianlong Yuan, in case you go to fight with other bigwigs who are ranked higher than you, the entire Daliang cultivation world will have to be unlucky!

Therefore, from a certain point of view, Qianlong Yuan's move can be regarded as making an indelible and great contribution to the peaceful development of the Great Liang cultivation world.

It is said that peers are enemies, and it stands to reason that this ruling division and Qianlong Yuan should be mortal enemies.

But it is precisely because the difference in strength between the two is too huge, so there are few conflicts, and even sometimes, the adjudication department will take the initiative to come to Qianlong Yuan for cooperation for news that cannot be found.

Qianlong Yuan hindered the face of the imperial court, and it would more or less help some.

In general, the two families have gotten along fairly well over the years.

But it is undeniable that a Qianlong man like Mr. Yao is indeed looking down on the adjudication department in his bones.

Take a look.

Today, Luming Academy opened its doors to welcome guests, so Cao Qing followed the prince so clearly, and was looked at by everyone, and a few officials from the adjudication department around him were also afraid that others would not know that they were the adjudication division, dressed like a bells and whistles, just like that, how can they engage in intelligence work?

Look at yourself......

Not.

I think I'm recognizable at a glance......

Thinking of this, the smile on Mr. Yao's face couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and he said to Sun Congsheng again: "I heard that you have a good relationship with Liang Chen of the Immortal Academy, I have information about him here, I can sell it to you, do you want to?"

Sun Congsheng was a little surprised, and raised his hand to rub his face wrongly.

The information on Qianlong Yuan was of course credible and accurate, but the problem was that this was the first time he had heard of it......

The people of Qianlong Yuan will actively sell information to outsiders.

No matter how you look at it.

This behavior is a bit of a price drop.

"How much?"

"Ten taels of silver. ”

Sun Congsheng once again confirmed that the dark lines on Mr. Yao's clothes were indeed from Qianlong Yuan, but he was a little suspicious, could the person in front of him fall when he was going up the mountain, so he broke his head?

Ten taels of silver was probably the money for a breakfast for Sun Congsheng, so he casually delivered a silver ingot to Mr. Yao's hands.

Mr. Yao smiled happily and weighed the silver to confirm that it was correct, and then slowly spoke: "Just before half a pillar of incense, Liang Chen had a fight with Fang Kui in the Immortal Academy and was seriously injured, but he insisted on participating in today's Inner Courtyard Examination, so if you want to bet later, I advise you to bet on him to lose." ”

Hearing this, Sun Congsheng's eyes couldn't help but change sharply, but before he could react, Mr. Yao had already disappeared from the place.

When he reappeared, he secretly walked to Tang Shishi's side.

"This Liang Chen is indeed very interesting, this time when I go back, I will ask the boss to promote you to the red clothes. ”

Tang Shishi didn't reply, didn't even look back, but as if she hadn't heard anything, she stared intently at the four high platforms in the hall, but inadvertently, she inevitably set off a light smile at the corner of her lips.

......

Of course, the rules for the selection of examinations in the inner court do not need to consider the question of whether it is an auspicious time.

But today, the Third Highness came to watch the ceremony in person, and several courtyard masters seemed embarrassed to make the family wait for a long time, so after a while, Qiu Ziqi, the head of the Spiritual Academy, came to the stage.

Today's lecture hall is full of friends and crowds.

Almost all the disciples in front of the academy came here to watch the battle.

Of course, due to the limited number of people that can be accommodated in the hall itself, many people were crowded in front of the long flat outside the door.

The academy has also thoughtfully placed water mirrors on both sides of the front lawn, which can "broadcast" the whole process of the on-site assessment in real time.

The Quartet Ring stood in the center of the Hall of Speech early, and the position in front of it was reserved for all the guests present today, as well as several courtyard masters.

Six stone chairs are lined up, and the first position on the right side is of course reserved for the third prince Zhu Yan.

After that, there were elders such as Sunset Valley and Banmen Fort in order.

As for the seat on the left, it was reserved for a few well-known family representatives of Daliang.

But I don't know why, when the assessment begins, a few chairs are still empty.

Only four of the six courtyard masters came.

In addition, on the first chair located at the top of the left side, there was no one from the Fang family.

This has made everyone talk a little bit.

However, the master of the Qiu Academy did not seem to have the intention of continuing to wait, and walked to the front of the stage very simply, and said to the disciples in the audience: "Today is the Yulan Festival, and it is also a big day for the inner courtyard of my academy to choose the examination, I hope you can give full play to what you have learned in the past few years, and leave no room for it. ”

As soon as the words fell, someone couldn't wait to step forward and took out a bamboo skewer from the cloth bag in the hand of the master of the Qiu Courtyard, with a simple number written on it.

53。

This means that he will play in Group 6.

The first round of the inner courtyard selection examination is a melee, a group of ten people.

Four rings at the same time.

According to the statistics of the people who participated in the selection examination of the inner courtyard this time, a total of 109 disciples have registered, and if they can draw the number of lots after 100, they will naturally be considered extremely lucky.

After all, that group will have one less competitor.

Of course, instead of paying attention to the number of people in the same group, it may make more sense to care more about who will be in the same group as you.

Everyone has been practicing in the outer courtyard for so long, and they know each other more or less.

Especially those who are strong in the same class, almost all known.

For example, no one would hope that he would be drawn together with Wang Linxuan and Senior Brother Wang.

Otherwise, this assessment may end here.

In addition to Senior Brother Wang, there is another person that everyone is unwilling to meet.

That is naturally the number one dark horse that has become famous in the outer courtyard in the past three months, Liang Chen, Senior Brother Liang.

I heard that Senior Brother Liang was suddenly injured for some reason, and he stayed in the inner hall of the Immortal Academy and never appeared.

But I don't know.

Is he here today?
