"The Beihai Secret Realm is a special space left over from the ancient period of the continent, which is only opened once every three thousand years. Li Wenyuan said, "The www.biquge.info secret realm is only open to monks in the cave void period and below, and it is named because it is located in the North Sea of the mainland. ”

Beihai Shen Tianye knew that in the northeast of the Shenzhou Continent, he was not known how many billions of kilometers away from the Baiyun Empire. The area of the North Sea is extremely vast, with islands all over it, and countless demon beasts live in the sea, including many of them who are overlords of beasts who can compete with human ascending monks and human powerful monks who occupy Spirit Island to practice in seclusion. Beihai is not under the jurisdiction of the mainland's six superpowers, and its living environment is extremely complex and chaotic.

"Why do you have to enter the secret realm of the North Sea to be a monk with a cave void and below?" Shen Tianye said, "Aren't other monks allowed to go in?" ”

"No, you can't." Li Wenyuan said: "The Beihai Secret Realm is a special space left over from the ancient period, and it has long been forbidden by the ancient powers. Monks above the cave void period cannot enter the secret realm of the North Sea. ”

"What is the fate in the secret realm of the North Sea?" Shen Tianye said again: "Is there any danger inside?" ”

Li Wenyuan said: "It is easy for people who enter the secret realm of Beihai to break through the bottleneck, and there are many magic weapons, pills and secret techniques of the ancient period left in the secret realm, which are all things that many monks dream of. Of course, there are many dangers inside. Each time a monk enters a secret realm, more than half of them usually fall. ”

"More than half!" Shen Tianye was secretly frightened.

"Not bad. Opportunities and risks always coexist. There is no such thing as nothing that is not earned for nothing. If you want to get it, you have to give something. Li Wenyuan said: "Every time the Beihai Secret Realm is opened, it will last for about two to three years, and when the time is up, the monks inside will be forcibly teleported out. Now there are still decades before the opening of the secret realm, you have to strive for an early breakthrough, it is best to enter the late stage of the Yuan Infant before the opening of the secret realm, in this way, you may be directly promoted to the cave void stage in the secret realm. ”

Decades have passed into the late stage of the Yuan Baby, please, I've just gotten married now, okay? Shen Tianye slandered in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it. You don't see, the Great Elder and Second Elder of the Interstellar Gate have been stagnant in the Yuan Infant Stage for thousands of years. Yuanying is not as good as Jiedan, but it is not so easy to break through.

The next morning, the Zhongwang Mansion sent an invitation to Shen Tianye to attend Princess Xiangxiang's birthday banquet two days later. Princess Xiangxiang is the daughter of Li Zhengyang, Li Wufeng's great-grandson. Li Zhengyang was crowned King Zhong.

The handwriting on the invitation is thin and beautiful, written in small letters, apparently by a woman. This Qiqi county lord seemed to be afraid that he would not go to the banquet two days later, so he specially asked the Zhongwang Mansion to send an invitation. I just don't know if the words on this are written by Princess Xiangxiang herself?

On the third day, Li Wenyuan, Zhang Chenyu and others returned to Younan Mansion in a teleportation array. Shen Tianye, Shen Xixue and others went to see each other off. This time, Younan Mansion broke into the top 200, and only 9 people were admitted to Baiyun Temple. Most of the unadmitted people returned to Younan with Li Wenyuan and others, and a small number chose to stay and prepare to take the entrance examination of the Imperial Royal Academy. Mo Ling'er, Mo Tianqing, Li Mofeng, Lin Qianqian, and Cai Shaofeng all chose to stay.

Entrance exams to the Imperial Royal Academy will be held at the Royal Academy in a few days. If Mo Ling'er and the others fail the exam, they can only return to Younan by themselves.

In order to give Mo Ling'er a greater confidence in passing the exam, Shen Tianye gave her the red ring and the dark shield he got from Li Wenyuan, and gave her some pills for the pill period. Mo Linger said that she would not accept anything. Shen Tianye had already given her a drop of yellow-eyed zombie blood and a copy of the "Divine Soul Technique" exercises, and he had also saved her life when Qiandaoliu was destroyed. He had done her enough favors.

Shen Tianye had no choice but to say that these two magic weapons were only temporarily lent to her, and he would take them back after the Royal Academy entrance exam was over. Mo Ling'er reluctantly accepted it.

Perhaps too moved, Mo Ling'er suddenly came up and kissed Shen Tianye on the face, and then left quickly with a blushing face. Shen Tianye stared blankly at Mo Ling'er's departing back, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while.

The conscience of heaven and earth, Shen Tianye has no love for Mo Ling'er. The reason why I helped her was just to treat her as a friend, and I couldn't bear her failing the exam and finally returned to Younan Mansion lonely. After all, now that Qiandaoliu no longer exists, she and Mo Tianqing are rootless. However, looking at Mo Ling'er's posture today, could it be...... Did she like herself?

For a while, Shen Tianye didn't know whether he was happy or worried. Since then, the only rewards he has received this time are Tianpeng wings, half of the body cleansing holy milk, a pure heart pill, nine bottles of Guyuan pill, a divine soul technique, a bronze medal of honor, and a large number of spirit stones. He gave Shen Xixue the mercury robe and ice blue flying sword, and the red ring and dark shield gave Mo Ling'er. Immediately afterwards, he gave the Golden Wing and the Qi Mei Stick to Li Mengyao. With Tianpeng Wings, Golden Wings are no longer of much use to him. In addition, the Demon Gate Golden Knife and the Seven Treasures Linglong Pagoda are all good-level attack magic weapons, and although the Qi Mei Stick is also good, it is about the same power as the flame gun, so it is just right to give it to Li Mengyao.

Two days later, Princess Xiangxiang held an 18th birthday party. Early in the morning, Lord Qiqi came to the inn where Shen Tianye was staying in a gorgeous carriage.

Looking at the unkind eyes of Shen Xixue, Li Mengyao, Su Xichen, and Mo Ling'er, Shen Tianye regretted very much that he had told Lord Qiqi his address that day. Didn't you say you'd go to her by yourself? What was she doing this early in the morning? Shen Tianye explained briefly to the fourth girl in embarrassment, then took out the invitation card of the Zhongwang Mansion, and finally pretended to be helpless and said: "The invitation from the Zhongwang Mansion himself, I can't refuse, why don't you go with me?" ”

The four women refused in unison. The Zhongwang Mansion didn't invite them, so of course they couldn't go. Shen Tianye fled in embarrassment under the disdainful gaze of several women.

The county lord of Qiqi was bold and generous, and when he saw Shen Tianye coming out of the inn, he invited him to sit in the carriage with her, although Shen Tianye was willing in his heart, but he was afraid that the four girls were still there, how dare he agree, and hurriedly refused with righteous words: "The county lord's good intentions are in the heart, but there are differences between men and women, and there are many inconveniences, so you can walk below." ”

Kiki's invitation was rejected, and she was a little dissatisfied, so she ignored him anymore. One of them took a car, the other walked, and went to the palace of King Zhong.

The Zhongwang Mansion is in the East Noble Workshop of the Central Capital, and it is very magnificent, and when Shen Tianye and the county lord Qiqi arrived, it was already an hour later.

Not long after leaving, Lord Qiqi suddenly remembered a very important thing and asked Shen Tianye, "My cousin has a birthday, have you prepared any gifts?" ”

Shen Tianye slapped his head and said honestly: "I left in a hurry, and I haven't had time to prepare yet." ”

So the county lord of Qiqi abandoned the car and walked, and went to the monk fang city with Shen Tianye. The so-called market is not different from the market in the mortal world, but a market for monks to buy and sell. There are a total of eight large markets and four major auction houses in Zhongdu, and there are hundreds of other small auction houses such as underground exchanges, black markets, and small auction houses secretly supported by the aristocracy. The county lord of Qiqi took Shen Tianye to Dilinfang City, which was established with the support of the royal family.

Dilinfang City is the largest monk trading center in the capital, and there is a special formation control outside, and ordinary people can't get in. If a foreign monk wants to enter, he must pay fifty lower-grade spirit stones. Because Shen Tianye followed the county lord of Qiqi in, he enjoyed a free treatment.

Entering Dilinfang City, Shen Tianye finally opened his eyes. The city of Dillinfang is a long street lined with countless shops of all kinds. Every short distance, there is a large comprehensive pavilion, ranging from three to five floors, and the things sold are more advanced than the first. It's like a real shopping mall or supermarket. There are also many monks selling on the ground along the street. In the market, magic weapons, pills, exercises, and materials are ...... Almost everything a monk needs is sold, of course, if you pay for it.

Well, I must bring Xi Xue Mengyao and them over tomorrow to take a look. Shen Tianye thought secretly.

What to buy as a gift? Shen Tianye casually entered a store, but the price inside made him staggered. A flying sword magic weapon is not as good as the ice-blue flying sword he gave to Shen Xixue, and the price is 50,000 medium-grade spirit stones; A bottle of Guyuan Dan is only eight pieces, and the price is 60,000 lower grade spirit stones. Originally, Shen Tianye felt that he was already very rich after receiving the "massive" spirit stones given by Li Wenyuan, but now he knew that he was still a poor ghost!

Shen Tianye retreated from the shop in a daze, and then picked up a piece of jade flute at a roadside stall. The jade flute was just a high-grade magic weapon, and although it was quite delicate in appearance, in the eyes of the Yuan Infant Monk, it was tantamount to garbage in the garbage.

"You're too perfunctory, aren't you?" The county lord of Qiqi, who was walking with her, was not happy: "It's just such a broken flute, you can't even talk about magic weapons, and you are embarrassed to give it to my cousin?" ”

Shen Tianye said: "Gifts are not valuable, just when your heart arrives." "Just kidding, what's so embarrassing about that? I don't know your cousin well, so it's good to be able to buy a jade flute for her.

"Insincere, stingy, hum!" Lord Kiki snorted and turned to leave.

Shen Tianye said in his heart: "I also want to be sincere, the key is that I am shy in my pocket, and I can't be sincere if I want to!" ”

Coming out of Fang City, Lord Qiqi got into the carriage again, and the two continued to walk towards King Zhong's Mansion.

When I arrived at the gate of Zhongwang's Mansion, I saw that there was already a long queue outside the door, and the guests who came to congratulate him almost filled the street, and a fat man who looked like a butler was sweating to welcome the guests. What made Shen Tianye a little strange was that the people who came to congratulate him were all young and handsome men like him, but there were not many women. Although he had doubts in his heart, he had no intention of delving into it, and followed the county lord of Qiqi and walked up directly.

In order to avoid embarrassing Shen Tianye, Lord Qiqi handed over himself and Shen Tianye's gift list together. The newspaper man sang loudly: "Shen Tianye, the county lord of Qiqi of the Yongwang Mansion and the champion of this year's Imperial Young Disciple Selection Competition, will present a pair of crystal bead earrings, a superb Yaoqin, and a jade flute——"

When everyone heard that it was the county lord of Qiqi who arrived, the dissatisfaction with the two of them immediately disappeared. It's just that when I heard that I was the champion of this year's Imperial Young Disciple Selection Contest who came with Qiqi, I couldn't help but look sideways again.

"He is the champion of this Imperial Young Disciple Selection Competition? Doesn't it look good? ”

"This kid is not very good, I heard that he is from the southernmost part of the empire, and he is from the Younan Mansion with the demon witch."

"Didn't a great war just break out there?"

"Why is he here too? And also with the county lord Kiki? ”

"Wouldn't it be for Princess Xiangxiang too?"

For a while, everyone was talking, there were envy, curiosity, and more despised, jealous. Shen Tianye did not squint, and Shi Shi entered. Lord Kiki said, "Hurry up and pull it, I lose my appetite when I look at these people." ”

"Not really, right? I think these people are pretty good. Shen Tianye said: "At least the gift is heavier than mine." ”

"You're embarrassed to say it." When it comes to gifts, the county lord of Kiki is angry: "Are you so stingy when I celebrate my 18th birthday next year?" ”

"Isn't it, you're going to have a birthday party next year?" Shen Tianye said bitterly: "Do all of you have to hold a banquet on your birthday!" Your cousin is like that, and so are you. ”

"You know what?" Lord Kiki said: "18 years old has a special meaning for our royal children, and it is necessary to hold a banquet. ”

Shen Tianye asked casually, "What is the special significance?" ”

"In our royal family, 18 years old means adulthood." "The 18th birthday party is not only a birthday celebration for our royal children, but also a coming-of-age ceremony. ”

"A bar mitzvah?" Shen Tianye was a little stunned.

"Yes. After the coming-of-age ceremony, a man can marry a wife and a woman can marry. Lord Kiki said with a blush.

Shen Tianye suddenly realized, most of the people who came to congratulate at the door before the strange way were young men, it turned out that today's banquet was still Princess Xiangxiang's coming-of-age ceremony, and Princess Xiangxiang could marry after today. Could it be that these people all came to propose marriage in advance?

"You understand now." Lord Qiqi said: "The reason why these people are so enthusiastic and give such valuable gifts one by one is actually uneasy and kind. ”

People just want to marry your cousin. My Fair Lady, good gentleman, this is a very normal thing, why are you uneasy and kind? Shen Tianye shook his head and thought in his heart.

"Wait a minute, you must behave well," said the county lord Kiki, "help my cousin to thwart their spirits." ”

"Why should I dampen their spirits?" Shen Tianye said: "I'm just here to celebrate your cousin's birthday - I don't want to have any conflicts with others." ”

"You--" At this moment, the two of them had entered the courtyard, and saw a little prince greet them. Lord Kiki had no choice but to shut up.

"You're here, county lord." The little prince smiled with a smile on his face, and looked at Shen Tianye again: "This must be the champion of this year's Young Disciple Selection Competition, Shen Tianye Shen Gongzi." ”

The county lord of Qiqi transmitted a voice to Shen Tianye and introduced: "He is my cousin's younger brother, Prince Li Lin. ”

Shen Tianye bowed his hand and said, "I have seen Prince Li Lin below." ”

"Shen Gongzi can come, and his father and sister must be very happy. Inside please. Li Lin was overjoyed, and then led the two into the living room.

At this time, the living room was already full of guests. Shen Tianye's eyes were sharp, and he found that Li Yishan, Murong Kucheng, Huo Yunji and other opponents in the competition were already in the hall. And Princess Xiangxiang is wearing a long white dress, like a fairy in the clouds standing in the middle like a star holding the moon. In the faint smile, the graceful and luxurious bearing and demeanor of the royal princess are displayed. Shen Tianye was stunned. This Xiangxiang princess is really beautiful. It's no wonder that so many young Junyan came with gifts today, almost breaking the threshold of the Zhongwang Mansion.

Seeing Shen Tianye and Lord Qiqi coming in, Princess Xiangxiang immediately quit everyone and walked over slowly. She nodded to Lord Qiqi, and then smiled lightly at Shen Tianye, "I'm glad you can come." ”

Shen Tianye said politely: "It's my honor to celebrate the princess's birthday. ”
