Chapter 3: Prelude to Leaving Home

After a good night's sleep, Miss Sanssouci just finished washing up and reloaded with various defensive illusion weapons.

The carriages were already parked in front of the house, and these horses were all second-level demonic beasts, and their feet were very fast, and they were very stable, and there would be no discomfort.

Sitting in one of the most luxurious carriages, the horse team set off in a majestic manner.

It didn't take long to arrive at the destination - the central square.

The central square is the place where the four major families discuss important matters, and it is also the place where the four major families have a family competition every year.

At the beginning of each year, the four major families gather here to conduct a lottery trial mission ceremony for the children of all ages. Trial missions are issued through the Divine Pillar in the center of the square, and are absolutely fair.

It is said that this pillar was built by the creator god himself in ancient times, with the purpose of urging the descendants of the four major families not to abandon their cultivation. The tasks that a person is given are given according to your own talents, and most of them can be done. Of course, there are also some children of families who have no talent but waste their lives, so that the mission fails and leads to disability or even death.

The four ancient families are the darlings of the Creation God, and the Creation God gives them the talent and bloodline at the same time, but is afraid that they will not seek advancement, so they came up with this trial and gave them a sense of crisis.

It is undeniable that the initiative of the creator god is undoubtedly a success, and the reason why the four major families can be passed down to this day is inseparable from the excellence of future generations.

This is the reason why the head of the Lejia and Feng families was very nervous after knowing his granddaughter's talent, and if he extracted the trial task with his worry-free talent, he would definitely face the most severe test. Without the strength to back her up, this experience could ruin her.

The second elder loves this granddaughter so much, but he always forces her to study, which shows his good intentions.

The experience is divided into ten levels according to the difficulty, which happens to be compared to the Divine Pillar divided into ten grids.

Level 10 is the most difficult, the Ten Hidden Exams, and the tester needs to complete ten tasks in two years. The next levels of ninth, eighth, and seventh are all decreasing in order.

Tasks vary in difficulty, sometimes the first can be daunting, and the rest can be easy.

The people complained bitterly about this evil taste of the creator god, but when they completed the whole trial, they had nothing but gratitude for the creator god.

Except for those who did not complete the task, everyone else has gained a lot in such a trial, although the process may be very hard, but looking at the most difficult achievements, no one will regret participating in this life test.

It is said that the number of tests you draw will also be the level of your future career, so these teenagers and girls are also very much looking forward to their potential in the future.

Like Carefree Grandpa and Grandpa were both winners of the Nine Exams of the Hidden Clan, and sure enough, many years later, one of them became a fighter who won the pinnacle of the Holy Swordsman, while the other became one of the few great mages on the continent.

Even among the ninth-order professionals, the two were among the best.

The four major families of ancient times have been inherited so far, and there has only been one hidden ten exams, and the participants are Nangong Ao, the first generation head of the Nangong family, after Nangong Ao completed the ten exams, he really broke through and became a tenth-level law god in the next thirty years, and flew to the god realm.

For this reason, the Nangong family has a faint leading posture among the four major families.

However, in the later years, due to the large number of heirs, the Nangong family killed each other for the power of the family, which greatly damaged their vitality. The highest talent of the remaining Nangong clan is only an eighth-level professional, so the strength of the four major families is gradually balanced.

On the day before the New Year's Day, her family wished her a happy and carefree life, so she named her Le Wuwu.

Today is the first day of the new year, and it is also the day of the annual lottery mission.

By the time they arrived, the people of the major families in the square had already arrived, and it only started at eight o'clock, and it was now seven fifty o'clock.

Grandpa led Carefree to get out of the car, took her little hand and walked towards the central pillar of the square, followed by more than forty children her age.

Some of these people are relatives who are far away from the bloodline, some are descendants of people who work for the family, and the rest are gifted orphans collected by the family from outside.

In this continent where the weak eat the strong, only the strength can continue to survive, so everyone can't help those orphans who have no talent, so they can only turn a blind eye or stay to be a handyman.

For the more than 40 children who came with her, most of them knew each other, and almost everyone was cleaned up by her, relying on their talents.

There are not a few people who call Wuwu a little witch in private, and Wuwu smiled after knowing it, but the method of rectifying them became more and more tragic.

Although those people were treated very badly, they also enjoyed it, and they just thought that they were a quirky little girl and a young lady who liked to play some pranks and had a child's temper.

Holding Grandpa's hand, he looked around curiously, and there were already many people bustling around, and almost all the people from the major families had already arrived. They were in a heap, chattering about the upcoming test.

Familiar names floated out of their mouths, those who had achieved good results in previous years, with amazement, envy, and deep admiration.

It's not the first time I've been here, but it's the first time she's been involved in person, so it's a novelty to see everything.

Just as everyone was talking, suddenly a silver ray flashed in the sky, and the silver light crossed the sky and rushed directly to the top of the central divine pillar.

In the midst of an exclamation, the originally gray Divine Pillar suddenly shone brightly, and suddenly regained its calm.

"The Pillar has activated !!" A teenager exclaimed.

Most of the people present were eleven-year-old boys and girls, and many of them had not seen the test process, so they were all shocked by the scene in front of them.

"Quiet!" As an old voice echoed throughout the central square and in the hearts of everyone, everyone stopped talking and looked towards the source of the sound.

The scene became extraordinarily quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on a white-robed old man under the divine pillar.

He looks to be in his seventies, and although his hair has turned gray, he is full of energy, and his eyes reveal a fine light, giving people a feeling of being seen through his heart.

He just stood on the high platform and watched the crowd, with a shallow smile on his face.

Although his expression was very kind, like an ordinary old man, when everyone met his eyes, they would avoid it unnaturally, and his heart was also full of this respect.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, the old man waved his sleeves, stretched out a finger, pointed to the open space in front of the high platform, and said, "The children who participated in the trial who are not directly involved in the trial have come here to line up and gather. ”

Following the old man's order, the leaders of the major families came to the open space with the non-direct children of their own families who participated in the test.

There will be such a test every year, so everyone knows the rules very well, and after a while, in the open space in front of the Divine Pillar, all the non-direct children are already in place.

Carefree stood quietly beside her grandfather, and there was still a long time before her turn came, so she just watched with interest.

"Alright, the test begins, the children of the Xuanyuan family, please stand in front!" With the words of the white-robed old man, the children of the Xuanyuan family came out and went to the front.

In front of them was the high platform, and two old men in the same costume as the white-robed old man led the children of the Xuanyuan family up the high platform.

The platform is very spacious, about half the size of the open space below.

There were already quite a few people on the high platform, they were all pillar guards of the Divine Pillar, and more than a dozen pillar guards were standing quietly behind the white-robed old man.

The white-robed old man was none other than their leader, the Great Elder of the Divine Pillar.

These pillar guards are all selected from the four major families, and once selected, they will be disassociated from the original family, so that they can protect this pillar wholeheartedly.

Seeing that the two guardian warriors had already brought all the people of the Xuanyuan family up, the Great Elder nodded slightly to the two elders behind him, and then retreated to the seat on the side.

The two elders were instructed and walked to the round platform next to the pillar.

One of the elders took out something like a roster and read it aloud, "Xuanyuan Lie." ”

Hearing the call of the elders, a young man walked out of the group tremblingly.

The young man was dressed in a blue shirt and looked delicate, and under the guidance of the guardian warrior, he slowly walked to the round platform and saluted the two elders.

The two elders nodded slightly, which was considered a return of the salute.

Another elder pointed to the crystal ball on the round platform and said, "Put your hand on the crystal ball!" ”

Exhaling, Xuanyuan raised his right hand tremblingly and placed it on the crystal ball.

Suddenly, the crystal ball burst out with dazzling light, and then the divine pillar behind the round platform also changed.

I saw that the bottom of the Divine Pillar gradually glowed with red rays, and the red rays rose very quickly at first, and gradually slowed down when they rose to about four blocks.

Everyone looked up at the red glow of the Divine Pillar, and their hearts seemed to be touched.

At this time, the blue-shirted young man clenched his fists, closed his eyes tightly and did not dare to look, his left hand was already soaked. Because this rank represents his future achievements. He was so nervous, too nervous to face it.

Finally, the rising red rays stopped, and the last stopped at a place of seven and a half blocks.

Seven squares means that the boy will definitely become a seventh-order professional in the future, and half a grid means that he has the hope of becoming an eighth-order professional.

Seeing this result, the young man was very happy, you must know that the seventh-order professional of the Dao is a seventh-order professional, and it is not uncommon for a seventh-order professional to be in the major families, but he is very likely to become an eighth-order existence, and he will definitely be valued by the family in the future.

At present, the Xuanyuan family only has a total of ten eighth-order, and if he can become an eighth-order professional in the future, then his status can be on an equal footing with the family elders.

Xuanyuan Lie's father was an orphan picked up and cultivated by the Xuanyuan family, and later made many meritorious contributions, so that he was able to marry the side lady of the Xuanyuan family and was promoted to the captain of the guard detachment, his father is already in his fifties, but he is still only a seventh-order silver swordsman, and it is estimated that he will not be able to become a golden swordsman in this life.

The boy turned his head to look in his father's direction, and when he saw his father's excited eyes and the approving look of the head of the family, he slowly exhaled a breath, and then let go of his clenched heart.

The moment the young man lowered his palm, a ray of golden light rushed towards the center of his brow, and his already stretched brow suddenly wrinkled again.

The Seven Tests of the Hidden Clan means that he has to complete seven tasks within two years, and he can only see the first one at present, and the seven tasks have been reflected in his sea of knowledge, and every time he completes one by one, the next one will be unsealed.

The reason why he frowned just now was because the first task he had to complete was very difficult, and he was very worried about whether he would be able to complete this trial.

But the elder didn't give him a chance to ponder, and let one of the guards lead him to the side, beckoning the next tester to come forward.

Wu Wu stood beside his grandfather, listening to the other people's congratulations to the head of the Xuanyuan family, and suddenly felt extremely bored.

However, as the daughter of the musician family, she is undoubtedly a model of the model outside, and in the eyes of the other two families, she is undoubtedly the best candidate for daughter-in-law, so she still stands by the little bird and listens, and sometimes nods in agreement.

Only those young masters who often play with Feng Wuxian know that what you are in front of is not a fairy but a witch!

Finally, when the witch's patience was about to run out, the test of non-direct disciples was over.

It's our direct descendant's turn to play, looking at the tall divine pillar, she smiles carefree, and she is also very curious about the limits of her future!
