Chapter Ninety-Six: Present
Knock knock!
When Yan Qing and Ah Cheng walked outside the door, they happened to hear a loud gong ringing.
The two glanced at each other and walked over to the sound of the gong.
After a while, the two of them met the elite disciple surnamed Qiu, who was in charge of leading them the way last night.
On either side of him, there were two other men dressed as ordinary disciples, beating gongs.
In addition, Yan Qing also met several other people who were going to participate in the assessment. Obviously, these people, like him and Ah Cheng, were attracted by the sound. The suspicion was the same that the gong was used to summon them.
I have to say that there were many times when the new election conference did not explain the details to them clearly. For example, in the first level, the assessment rules and passing conditions were not even explained in advance, so that everyone could only run behind the examiner.
It's the same this time, only saying that noon is the time of the assessment, and nothing else is said. It was only now that the sound of a gong was striking that they realized that this was a call for the call.
But everyone is not stupid, although it is not explained, but they can guess eight or nine without leaving ten. Only a real fool would ignore the sound of the gong that happened to appear. And if it's really stupid, it's not even qualified to worship the Yanyun Sect.
After Yan Qing and Ah Cheng, many more people gathered here. Among them, Gu Lei, Xiao Jie, etc. are also mixed in, and finally it is the belated Sha Luo.
Fifteen people arrived! Only Xuanyuan Zhe, Zhou Chen, and Jia'er were missing.
"The time is almost up, and I will lead you to the venue where the assessment will be conducted. ”
The young man surnamed Qiu smiled gently at everyone, then turned around and began to walk in one direction.
For the three people who were absent, the others naturally had nothing to do with themselves, and it was useless to think too much, and followed behind this elite disciple.
Among the people, Gu Lei frowned slightly, and after looking left and right that there was still no trace of Zhou Chen and the three of them, he had to shake his head and move with everyone.
It didn't take long for everyone to completely walk out of this ordinary disciple's residential area. To the west of it, it crossed a long avenue, and at the end of it a large field appeared in front of the people.
The ground is not empty, but a huge stone platform with a length and width of more than ten zhang is built in the middle.
Attentive people have noticed that there are many obvious or subtle repairs on the surface and sides of this stone platform, and it is obvious that there are often damages.
Then it is obvious that the function of this stone platform is to be used as a martial arts competition, and it is a ring for martial arts!
This is where they will compete in the fourth level.
In addition to this big martial arts ring, there are already many people waiting here on the edge of this venue. Judging from the costumes, most of them are just ordinary disciples, and they obviously came to see the excitement.
There are also some people who are elite disciples, and the places they occupy are often not close to other ordinary disciples, making them look like they stand out from the crowd.
"Okay guys, you can rest in place first, just wait for the peak master or elder who is presiding over the assessment this time to come over, and the assessment of the last level will begin. ”
The young man surnamed Qiu said a word, and then walked to the edge of the opposite side, approaching one of the elite disciples. Obviously, the two knew each other, and after a while they began to talk and laugh.
Seeing that this surnamed Qiu changed from a leader to a purely lively one, the rapid change made the warriors who were going to participate in the assessment stunned for a while.
But they quickly adapted to it, and each found a place to sit down and breathe, waiting for the assessment to begin.
"Huh? Didn't you say that the assessment started at noon? Why hasn't it started yet? It's a waste of time to make the little master come over on time!"
After a while, with a familiar voice coming, Xuanyuan Zhe and Zhou Chenjia'er finally arrived here.
The three of them only arrived at this time because Xuanyuan Zhe had been eating and drinking in the cafeteria. Zhou Chen heard him say that he knew where to assess, so he simply acted with him.
Zhou Chen also heard the sound of the gong used for summoning, but he thought that it was easier and less labor-saving to be with Xuanyuan Zhe, so he chose to ignore it.
"Brother Qiu, that fat man who just came here is really the rumored Xuanyuan Zhe?"
Standing with the young man surnamed Qiu was a man in his early forties, of medium height with a long beard, dressed like a teacher.
He didn't seem to have seen the famous Xuanyuan Zhe.
"Senior Brother Sun, you have been in retreat alone all year round, and it's normal that you don't know Xuanyuan Zhe. But don't be deceived by his appearance, he not only has the bloodline talent of the Xuanyuan family, but also awakened the Hongluan martial soul, and now it is already a realm of martial soul unity. ”
The young man surnamed Qiu said this, but he knew in his heart that he had tried his best to be optimistic.
"The first Hongluan martial soul of the Xuan level?"
Senior Brother Sun paid attention to something else, he frowned and said, "Hongluan is a fire, and the most important thing is to be able to fly, but it is quite restrained by my martial soul ability." ”
The martial soul cultivation system, once it reaches the realm of external manifestation, the soul power is strong to a certain extent, and if you master some application skills, you can make the martial artist fly.
In the realm of external manifestation, if you want to master the ability to fly, you can basically only rely on the type of martial soul itself.
This is why, at the same level, martial artists who awaken martial spirits such as birds and flying insects are often much more difficult than others.
Moreover, for most ordinary martial artists, they have never been able to touch the edge of the explicit realm in their lives, and their lifelong goal may be the realm of unity. Therefore, the common concept is that those who have awakened the martial soul with the ability to fly are often a head higher in the group than others.
Just when the young man surnamed Qiu was talking about Xuanyuan Zhe with Senior Brother Sun, the other dozen or so elite disciples present were also focusing on Xuanyuan Zhe.
Only one person is different!
It was a personable, handsome young man who, though also dressed in the standard dress of an elite disciple, wore a cloak of rich materials and a purely decorative gem-encrusted sword pinned to his waist.
He was originally talking about Xuanyuan Zhe with a junior brother beside him, but after casually scanning Zhou Chen and Jia'er twice, he suddenly frowned, remembered something, and then changed his face.
"Most others don't know the ability of the Hongluan Martial Soul, but the younger brother happened to read an ancient book, and he knew a little bit about it, the fire of the Hongluan was extremely special, as long as it was stained with a little ......"
The junior brothers around him were still showing off their knowledge, but they also noticed the strangeness of the young man at this moment, so they said, "Senior Brother Tang, what's wrong with you?"
"The silver-haired kid next to Xuanyuan Zhe, do you know his identity?"
The young man known as Senior Brother Tang still had an ugly face and did not deliberately hide it.
"Oh?"
The junior brother next to him followed his gaze and saw a young man about thirteen years old, that is, Zhou Chen.
"Looking at the color of his hair, isn't it the ancient family of Yuecheng?"
The junior brother guessed.
"I think so, I'm afraid this person is from the same family as Naguyi......"
The young man surnamed Tang narrowed his eyes, and he couldn't tell what he was thinking from the surface.
But the junior brother next to him knows that whenever this Senior Brother Tang shows this appearance, I'm afraid he is planning something, and most of the people will suffer.
And as far as he knew, this Senior Brother Tang was on the ranking list of elite disciples, and he often competed with Na Guyi for the top thirty rankings, and the two of them were on the same footing.
Now that this kid is suspected of being of the same clan as Gu Yi, looking at Senior Brother Tang's performance, it seems that this kid has also provoked him, but he can't be sure of his identity, which makes people a little curious.
So the junior brother also asked directly: "Senior Brother Tang, has this kid provoked you? Do you want the junior brother to mobilize the people below to help you carefully check his background?" to determine whether he is really a member of the Gu family. ”
"Then there is Senior Brother Lao, your intelligence source is still much stronger than mine. ”
The young man surnamed Tang nodded, and said, "But don't be in a hurry now, let's take a look at this assessment competition first." ”
As he spoke, he withdrew his gaze from Zhou Chen's direction and moved to another place.
The junior brother beside him also turned his head to look at him with him.
In the direction they were looking, there were several high-ranking members of the Yanyun Sect, who were chatting and casually walking towards this venue.
