In the southwest border of the Dakui Empire, there is a small village, called Xiaotian Village, which is located in the most prosperous state of the Dakui Empire - Kuizhou. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info this village and the Dakui Empire have a long history, and the years of existence are also very long. To the southeast of the village is the endless East China Sea, and to the southwest is close to the Qiuluo River. Qiuluo River is the only river on the Doutian Continent that leads directly from the Tiandou Plateau to the sea, the cliffs on both sides of the river, towering into the clouds, are simply ghosts and tigers, making people daunting, and on the other side of the river is another overlord on the Tiandou Continent - the Tiandou Empire.

The population of the village is more than 300 people, but because of its remote location, although it is in the prosperous territory of Kuizhou, it is too far away from the capital of Kuizhou, so it is not known by too many people. Until the Continental War more than 300 years ago, Shi Tianshuai, who led the rebel armies of Tiandou and Dakui, and joined forces with Tianyuan Pagoda to repel one of the two commanders of the Emmy Empire, was from Xiaotiancun, and Xiaotiancun became famous. At that time, there was an endless stream of monks visiting and visiting, showing a prosperous scene for a while, but the good times did not last long, and Shi Tian and Wenyan were worshiped as gods by the people of the mainland, and the two marshals disappeared and disappeared shortly after their success. In the next three hundred years, Xiaotian Village had nothing to attract people, and slowly, the village returned to its former peace. Therefore, Xiaotian Village only flourished for a while, and later embarked on the same path as other villages, and fell silent. Only one statue standing at the west end of the village seems to bear witness to the past.

It is the wheat season, and from a distance, the entire Xiaotian Village is surrounded by a golden yellow. The houses in the village are arranged in a circular shape, and a square platform stands in the middle of the ring. The main body of the platform is made of ashlar stones, and there is a staircase leading to the bottom of the platform on all sides, and flowers and plants of various seasons are planted on both sides of the stairs, which are green all year round. This is what the village calls a martial arts platform.

The morning sun was rising, and in this remote village, ordinary villagers had already begun to work, and like all the civilians in the Tian Yuan Continent, they were basically living a life of self-sufficiency except for some special items that needed to be purchased. Of course, there are also some cultivators who don't need to do these civilian things. These cultivators are all respected as fighters in the Tianyuan Continent, they fight with the heavens and the earth, and go against the sky, and there are legends that there have been fighters who can cultivate to a certain level and transcend the shackles of this heaven and earth to become gods, of course, that is just a legend.

As for the fighters in Xiaotian Village, the current highest level is only in the early stage of reaching a small body breaking realm, and the so-called fighting with heaven and earth doesn't seem to have anything to do with them, let alone breaking the shackles of heaven and earth. Today is an extremely ordinary day in Xiaotian Village, and the villagers are doing their own things. Although the sun has just risen, there are already more than 30 figures on the stage in the middle of the village, most of whom are half-grown children, and the shouts of one after another continue to come out from the high platform, making this small village that was originally desolate and declining more vibrant.

"Don't be lazy, give me some energy, morning is the best time of the day to exercise, especially in the short time before and after the sun rises, it is the golden period of exercise, each of you has given me a memory, only unremitting efforts, continuous strength, you can meet the requirements of accepting the funeral ceremony in the shortest possible time. The time for the opening ceremony should come soon, and after the funeral ceremony, if your physique is suitable for cultivation, then you will become great fighters, respected by all the people on the continent, and at the same time the guardian of the village. When he said this, there was a hint of pride in the middle-aged man's eyes. After a pause, he continued: "Of course, if you can be stronger, I would love to hope that any of you can get out of the village and go to the mainland, and the statue at the west end of the village is your goal." ”

"Old Lei, how many times have you said these words, even my ears can hear the cocoon." Lao Lei turned his head, only to see a thin monkey-like man looking at him with a smile, if you don't look at the head, this person feels like a skeleton with a coat on it, as if a gust of wind will fall apart, but the occasional flash of light in his eyes betrays his weak figure.

Old Lei smiled innocently: "Monkey spirit, don't you know, at their age, what they need most is to continue to give them pressure and hope, which will be of great benefit to their growth, this year's opening ceremony is about to arrive, I don't want this year to be the same as in previous years, none of them have passed." ”

The monkey's thin lips twitched: "Then you don't have to say this every time it's your turn to teach, their ears are tired of hearing it, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive." Hearing the monkey spirit say this, Lao Lei raised his palm, which was several circles larger than ordinary people, and scratched his head, so there was still a trace of the strictness that had just been educated to the children, and he said helplessly: "It's not that you don't know that I can't speak, how can I be like you, there are always a lot of ideas, hehe..."

The two people who spoke were Lao Lei, who ranked first in strength in the village, and the second monkey spirit, don't look at Lao Lei's stupid appearance, his strength is recognized as the first in the village. With the conversation between the two, the three adults who were still cultivating on the edge of Fang Tai also gradually opened their eyes, and the two who looked at the bickering shook their heads helplessly, this situation has long been commonplace for them. One of the people in green clothes smiled and said, "Okay, Monkey Spirit, today is the day of Lao Lei's teaching, so don't be blind." ”

These five people are the only five fighters in the village, among which Lao Lei and Monkey Jing are both junior fighters in the Broken Body Realm, the Tsing Yi man who just spoke is named Wang Tiancheng, who is a senior fighter in the Kaizang Realm, and the remaining two are intermediate fighters in the Kaizang Realm, and the five of them take turns to give physical training to the children in the village every day.

The cultivation system of the Tian Yuan Continent is divided into seven systems, namely: metal, wind, water, fire, earth, wood, and light. The cultivation of each department is divided into ninety-nine and eighty-one levels, with levels 1 to 9 being the body refining realm, levels 10 to 18 being the Tibetan opening realm, and levels 19 to twenty-seven being the body breaking realm. By analogy, from now on, they are the Jing Dou Realm, the Qi Dou Realm, the Divine Dou Realm, and the legendary Doudi Realm, Dou Xuan Realm and Dou Tian Great Realm. The first three levels of each realm are the primary stage of the realm, the middle three levels are the intermediate stage of the realm, and the last three levels are the advanced stages of the realm.

The five of them take turns to physically train the children in the village between the ages of six and twelve every day, and if the physical strength does not meet the requirements of the opening ceremony after the age of twelve, then they can only be regarded as ordinary people and live an ordinary life from then on. During this period, if the requirements for baptism are met, then the children who meet the requirements will be opened, which is a very solemn ceremony and a test to test whether a person has the ability to cultivate. Every year in July, the Tian Yuan Pagoda will send envoys to all corners of the entire Tian Yuan Continent, and as long as there are people, there will be traces of them. The task of the messenger is to open the children who meet the requirements of the funeral ceremony, and of course, before receiving the opening ceremony, the elders of these children will test whether the children's physical strength has reached the requirements.

Looking at the children sweating like rain under the morning sun and constantly doing various physical exercises, the five of them all showed a faint smile on their faces, but this smile contained a little helplessness. How many years have passed, Xiaotian Village has been in decline for too long, and now there are only five of them left in the village.

"Okay, let's rest for five minutes, and after five minutes, we will start running along the village chief," Lao Lei shouted loudly, and when he heard him speak, the children who were originally exercising stopped and lay on the ground panting. As far as the eye can see, there are children of all ages lying on the entire high platform, there are boys and girls, perhaps because of the reason for the perennial training, even the girls are relatively strong, but this kind of sturdiness gives people an alternative beauty.

"There should be a lot of people who can participate in the opening ceremony this year, and I think that kid in my family should be about the same." The thin monkey stared at a child lying in the middle of the stone platform, and said with a spring breeze on his face. The boy was about eight years old, with neat short hair and healthy wheat-colored skin, and he was lying on the ground bare-chested, with a large area of his body soaked with sweat.

"Don't be complacent, who doesn't know that the monkey spirit gave birth to a good son, and he can lift two hundred catties of Shi Bing when he is six years old." It was Wang Tiancheng who spoke, but although he said so, he could obviously see a little envy in his eyes. The monkey spirit glanced at him and turned his head to the side, "I'm proud, what's wrong, you Wang Tiancheng also gave birth to a person like this." Wang Tiancheng shook his head helplessly and did not say anything more. The monkey spirit's son is named Hou Yuzhu, one of the most gifted children in the village for decades, and he was able to lift two hundred pounds of stone bing at the age of six, which caused a sensation in the whole village at the time, of course, his talent did not surpass that of someone who was called a pervert by the monkey spirit. But Wang Tiancheng is not so lucky, his son can be half as good as Hou Yuzhu.

"Alright, it's time, start running along the village chief." Old Ray's gong-like voice sounded without warning. The children who were lying on the ground bounced up one by one in an instant, and quickly lined up in order of height and shortness. Looking at the children who were instantly energetic, the five adults all nodded in unison. The monkey spirit smiled: "Yes, although you are very tired physically, your alertness is still very high, and your performance is very satisfactory to our five old fellows." ”

"Uncle Monkey, what kind of old guy, Brother Yan and Brother Peng are less than thirty, how can they be considered old fellows if they haven't taken a daughter-in-law", a girl standing in the front row of the queue smiled. After saying that, he unconsciously laughed, and the other children also laughed. The tense atmosphere of the morning exercise dissipated most of the time in an instant, and even the other two adults who had not spoken all this time laughed. One of these two people is named Wang Liyan and the other is Guo Dapeng, and they have cultivated to the intermediate level of the Kaizang Realm at the age of less than thirty, which is not an unusual thing on the entire Doutian Road, but in this remote and declining mountain village, the two of them can be regarded as geniuses.

Wang Tiancheng said: "Your Uncle Monkey deliberately made you happy, okay, let's start the long-distance run." After speaking, he took the lead and ran towards the stairs south of the stone platform, and the monkey spirit ran out after him, followed by Lao Lei, Wang Liyan and Guo Dapeng. Then came a team of more than 30 children.
