Chapter 20 The Preliminary Examination Begins

Dawn, like a sharp sword, splits the thick night and ushers in the rising sun. I opened the window and took a deep breath, the golden sunlight shining on my carefree and handsome face. Radiant with youthful brilliance. I love the feeling, let go of all pretenses, and be my truest self.

"Elder Yu, Second Elder, please go to the side hall. Suddenly, the voice of a guard sounded outside. Wu Wu tidied up his black robe, and his face appeared with an old look. I hate pretending, but I can't help it, I still have to do a lot of things with the identity of Yucang.

Last night, under the guidance of Yu Ling, he made a silver mask by himself, and carved several formations on it, which could isolate the investigation of those who had become infants. Worry-free put the mask on his face, and as soon as he went out, he saw Liu Er coming up. Saluted, "Master!" and replied, "Well, follow me." Liu Er responded: "Yes! Master." ”

Under the guidance of the guards, the two came to the side hall, and the hall outside was very noisy. Wu Wu looked at it with his divine sense, and saw two rows of people sitting opposite each other in the hall, talking about something, and a group of guards standing behind them. It looks like he should be a big man with a head and a face.

After a while, Feng Xuan took Luo Yunchuan and a few people to the side hall. Wu Wu got up and bowed: "Second Elder!" Feng Xuan smiled at a few people and said, "I'll introduce you." This is my Honorary Elder Yu Cang of the Sword Pavilion, Elder Yu is mainly responsible for the teaching of the disciples of the 'Dan Medicine Hall', and he is also the gentleman entrusted by the 'Dan King Palace' this time. ”

Several people were slightly surprised when they heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Long Yang, Long Yang! In the future, we will work together, and I will ask Senior Yu for more advice." "It turns out that these people are gentlemen sent by the 'Jade Fu Sect' and the 'Sword Casting Sect', who are responsible for the teaching of new disciples for half a year.

After returning the salute without worry, he said approachably: "My current identity is the gentleman of the 'Danwang Palace', since all the Taoist friends are here to be gentlemen, there is no need to be so polite." After speaking, several people were polite to each other again.

Feng Xuan looked at a middle-aged woman and said, "This is Gu Rou, the daughter of the third elder of the 'Jade Fu Sect', Ku Ching. ”

This Gu Rou looks like she is in her thirties, dressed in green clothes, her eyes are clear, her eyebrows are trimmed and her nose is trimmed, and pear vortices appear on her cheeks. The sun outside the window shone on her face, and it made her complexion crystal clear and soft as jade, but she saw that her complexion was very white, her nose was higher than that of ordinary women, and there was a faint blue of sea water in her eyes.

Wu Wu felt that this Gu Rou was only a cultivator in the middle of the Hua Dan Realm, but an old woman behind him couldn't see through it, and it should be a great power in the Infant Realm.

After several people saluted each other, Feng Xuan looked at a strong middle-aged man and said to everyone, "This is Zhong Wuchi, the son of the four elders of the 'Sword Casting Gate'. "Worry-free is still the first time to see the 'Sword Forging Gate'.

I saw that the man was about forty years old, dressed in a black tight-fitting robe, outlining his strong body, strong limbs, broad round shoulders, high chest, strong as steel stakes and iron pillars. This is a thick-lined man, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, dark skin, broad shoulders, and a tall figure, like a stone tower standing next to Feng Xuan.

Although Zhong Wuchi was only a cultivator in the early stage of the Transformation Dan Realm, he could feel that this person's spiritual power was surging. It should be that he has cultivated some special exercises to improve his spiritual power reserves. There was a white-haired old man standing behind him, but he was only a cultivator in the late stage of the Cheng Dan Realm.

The last person to be introduced is Luo Yunchuan, Feng Xuan's disciple. This time, he took up the position of Mr. of the 'Lily of the Valley Sword Pavilion'. Responsible for teaching new disciples to learn swordsmanship.

After Feng Xuan's introduction, everyone exchanged a few polite words and came to the main hall. When the people in the hall saw Feng Xuan and the others coming, they instantly fell silent. They all stood up and clasped their fists and saluted. Feng Xuan returned the salute and walked to the main seat of the main hall.

After bowing to everyone, he said, "The old man is Feng Xuan, the second elder of the 'Lily of the Valley Sword Pavilion'. Thank you all for coming all the way to participate in the primary election of the disciples of the four sects. The old man welcomes everyone on behalf of the four sects, please bear with me if there is any inadequate care, and please sit down. "Finished. Smiling and holding out his hand, he motioned for everyone to take a seat.

Feng Xuan and Gu Rou sat in the upper right position, and Zhong Wuchi and Luo Yunchuan also sat in the upper left position. The people below also exchanged a few polite words and sat down one after another. Worry-free glanced at it and found that the first seat on the right was Bai Linfeng, the head of the Bai family, and the second was Jiang Manming, the head of the Jiang family. The first seat on the left is Luo Yunhao, the head of the Luo family, and the second on the left is his father Mo Yunfeng.

Unexpectedly, his father also came, and he saw Mo Yunfeng looking at the carefree man wearing a mask. As if thinking about something, when he saw Wuwu looking at him, he smiled and nodded. Then the light was removed. Wu Wu thought to himself: Could it be that my father found out about myself? Probably not, with the strength of my father in the late stage of the Cheng Dan Realm, I should not be able to see through the mask refined by Sister Yuling.

Wu Wu wanted to tell Mo Yunfeng about the plans of the four sects through the sound transmission. However, it was not sure if the main hall had a formation that could eavesdrop on their conversations, so they did not dare to use this method. He could only wear a mask to prevent Mo Yunfeng from recognizing himself and having doubts. was seen by Feng Xuan.

At this time, Bai Linfeng said: "Senior Feng, I don't know when the primary selection of disciples will start?" Feng Xuan replied with a smile: "Don't worry, the primary election has begun. After speaking, he clapped his hands, and saw several guards at the four corners of the main hall each put a spirit stone into the groove of the stone pillar next to him.

The stone pillar that was placed into the spirit stone suddenly emitted four rays of white light, forming a picture in the middle of the main hall, in which many young people were struggling to climb the stairs outside the gate of Sword Pavilion Mountain.

"It's the 'Floating Light Array'!" suddenly someone below shouted in surprise. Feng Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Forty years ago, the four sects recruited disciples for the first time. There were very few people coming, so there was no need for this 'floating light array'. Now with this 'floating light array', you can clearly see everyone's tests. "This 'floating light array' is a reflection of the distant picture. Although it is not a large array, this array consumes spirit stones very much. Therefore, few people use it, after all, spirit stones are very precious.

Feng Xuan looked around for a week, then continued to smile and said, "What everyone sees now is the assessment of the primary selection of disciples. The stairs outside are attached to the formations that will give the climbers the illusion that the stairs in front of them are endless. And each time you go up a ladder, you need more spiritual power. ”

Because, in the four cases, the tester was under 20 years old. Therefore, most of the boys and girls who came to participate were eighteen or nineteen years old, and occasionally there was a child of thirteen or fourteen years old. Worry-free saw an acquaintance, it was Bai Zhihang, the young master of the Bai family who scolded Feng Xuan in the inn last time.

Bai Zhihang gasped and said to himself: "What kind of ghost staircase is this, how can I not see the end." I'm too tired, take a break. After saying that, he sat down on the stairs and wiped his sweat. Bai Zhihang was in the middle of the entire staircase, and he should be halfway to the exit, and there were only a few people in front of him.

Worry-free thought: The last time I saw Bai Zhihang was building the foundation realm, it seems that this assessment is not simple. Unless you reach the late stage of the foundation building realm, you can easily pass through. Most of the people who can participate in the assessment are not children of rich families. They are counting on passing the test and joining the 'Lily of the Valley Sword Pavilion' to obtain Tsukidan. In other words, most people are just in the Qi realm.

Worry-free remembered the scarred man who robbed Wei Mo. How many of the children of ordinary families who are not from good backgrounds can pass the ladder in the Qi Acceptance Realm? I saw that most of the assessment disciples were blocked in the middle of the ladder, and they struggled with their hands and feet. Worry-free shook his head, this world of cultivation is still the most ordinary people.

Suddenly, two familiar figures appeared in Carefree's eyes. A sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy in black stood out from the crowd behind, and the boy took firm and heavy steps. surpassed Bai Zhihang step by step, and when Bai Zhihang saw that someone had surpassed him, he was not to be outdone and got up to chase after him.

This person was Wei Mo, but he didn't expect him to come anyway, and beads of sweat wet his childish and stubborn face. Wei Mo gritted his teeth and thought to himself, "I can't stop, I want to enter the 'Lily of the Valley Sword Pavilion' and find the truth." I can't live up to my mother's expectations, and I still have the pill of the carefree young master. It turned out that Wei Mo successfully built the foundation with the Tsukuji Dan that he gave him without worry, and persuaded his mother Xu Lan to come to participate in the preliminary examination.

And another acquaintance is dressed as a teenager. The big eyes looked around strangely and jumped up the stairs. Carefree smiled helplessly, and said in his heart: Sister Cai'er, you are still here.

Cai'er caught up with Wei Mo after a while, she recognized Wei Mo and shouted happily: "Wei Mo?" Wei Mo glanced at it with difficulty, and asked, "Who is Childe? Why do you know Zaixia's name?" I felt that the Childe in front of me was very familiar, but I couldn't remember where I had seen it.

Cai'er realized that she was now dressed as a woman, and glanced at Bai Zhihang, who was not far behind. After tidying up his voice, he said to Wei Mo: "I am a friend of the carefree son, I heard him talk about you." As soon as Wei Mo heard that he was a carefree friend, he wanted to bow his hand. But I felt very heavy and couldn't lift my hands. So he said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Wei Mo was rude." ”

Cai'er hurriedly waved her hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay." We're almost at the end of the stairs, so we'll talk later. Come on!" After speaking, he clenched his small fist to encourage Wei Mo. Bai Zhihang, who was in the back, was shocked after hearing this, thinking that this young man could see the end of the stairs?

Then he asked, "Hey, friend, in Xia Fu Ling Bai Family's young master Bai Zhihang, I don't know how far ahead?" Cai'er blinked and replied, "There are about twenty-three steps." After speaking, he said to Wei Mo: "Come on, I'll go up and have a look first." Wei Mo nodded and said, "Childe, be careful." Cai'er waved her hand and jumped up, leaving Bai Zhihang's mouth wide open enough to plug his fist.

Wei Mo smiled slightly, and said in his heart: It's not a loss, it's a friend of the carefree young master, it's really amazing. I can't lag too far behind, come on Wei Mo, you can do it. Encouraging myself, I adjusted it and took another difficult step.

In the main hall, everyone was frightened by Cai'er's actions, this young man was unusual. Mo Yunfeng was stunned, but he didn't expect Cai'er to sneak out. Lin Lan behind him also looked at the light curtain in surprise. At this time, Gu Rou of the Jade Fu Sect suddenly said excitedly: "I Gu Rou has settled this son. ”

The gaze in the main hall was attracted by the sudden voice, and Gu Rou saw that she was a little out of shape. Slightly adjusted his demeanor and said, "Second Elder, fellow Daoists. Gu Rou lost her temper, but she was too excited to see that the young man just now was talented. Please forgive me!"

Feng Xuan smiled slightly and said: "Gu Daoyou don't have to blame yourself, I can understand your thirst for talent." The four of you gentlemen all have the right to accept closed disciples, and when the test is over, you can find the disciples you like. The audience turned back and continued to watch the test in the field.

Mo Yunfeng looked at Gu Rou and asked, "Gu Daoyou, I don't know what formation talent this young man has?" Can you tell me one or two?" Gu Rou looked at Mo Yunfeng and replied, "Mo Daoyou, is this young man from your Mo family?" Mo Yunfeng nodded and admitted.

I saw Gu Rou's eyes shining and said, "Mo Daoyou, this young man's formation talent is excellent, can you let him be my closed disciple?" Mo Yunfeng thought to himself: Cai'er can actually make this arrogant Gu Rou open her mouth to beg, seeing that this girl's formation talent is not ordinary. Then he said, "When the child is older, he has his own ideas. As long as he agrees, I have no opinion. ”

Gu Rou nodded after hearing Yixi and said, "Then thank you Mo Daoyou." After speaking, he continued to look at the test outside, and Mo Yunfeng also turned his head to look at the light curtain.

The secret transmission of the two in the main hall was sent to Feng Xuan's ears by the formation, Feng Xuan smiled, and said in his heart: It turns out that the young man is a member of the Mo family, but there has never been a person with such talent in the investigation. Could it be Mo Yunfeng's illegitimate daughter in the 'Lingya Villa'? Looking at the young man's demeanor, he must be a woman disguised as a man. It seems to be the same as what I know.
