Volume 1: Dragon Leap Abyss Chapter 113: Grand Event
Boom... Knock knock... Knock knock knock......
With the sound of a deafening drum, the second half of the first half of the Ling Wu test officially began.
After a morning of fierce fighting, 800 young generation of Yuanshi have been selected and successfully entered tomorrow's preliminary examination.
The stage of Ling Wuxuan is set in the northwest side of the entrance of the Imperial Palace of Weiming City, which covers a vast area and can accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time.
Most of the people sitting on the high platform are the famous families on the East Que, and the first ones are the four major families of the East Que, and then the high-level of the Qi Sect, the Dan Sect, the Qingfang and the Zhongyi Hall. Of course, there are also many prestigious and prestigious families or individuals.
At the top, however, there were two thrones made of blue jade, condescending, and a man and a woman were sitting at this time.
The man is about fifty years old, of medium stature, with a wisp of goatee, his face is elegant and calm, he is dressed in green silk and pulled up casually with a wooden hairpin, his face is upright, with a trace of elegant smile, quite a bit of fairy wind bones.
The woman looks like she is only twenty or thirty years old, with long lilac hair draped over her shoulders, peach blossoms on her face, red lips and jade fat, and her beauty is outstanding, but her eyebrows are a little wrinkled, giving people a sense of majestic oppression, compared to the man next to her, she is a little more noble.
This woman is quite familiar, it is Zi Luo, the dean of the famous academy of Yunhuang Academy, since the last time she left the Luo family in a hurry, it is rare to see her, and today because of Ling Wu's test, she appeared here.
And the man next to her is also noble, he is the president of the Yunhuang Academy Court Wuya, who has the cultivation of the Great Perfection of the Dingyuan Realm, and is also the master of Yingqi, Jiannan and others.
Looking down at the lower row, there are many people sitting scattered, and there are many familiar faces, and on them sit the three most important forces in Dongque, namely Qizong, Danzong and Qingfang.
Among them, Ling Feng, Wu Lie, Wu Sisi, Wu Hao, Ou Jinyang and others sat on the right side, Di Fei'er, Qing Ying, Feng Bo and others sat in the middle, and a woman sat on the main seat on the left, looking extremely beautiful, about twenty or thirty, but the actual age is definitely more than that.
Further down, there are the four major families of Dongque, in the middle of which are the Nangong family of the royal family of Weiming City and the Guan Luo family of Lingque, on the left is the Shangguan family of Xingyu City, and on the right is the Han family of Beibin City.
Although everyone has a gentle but polite smile, it can prove the depth of their hearts from the depth in their eyes.
Further down are some people who have a little prestige and fame in Dongque, or people who have a little family power, or people who have cultivated to a certain level, or people who have won the last Ling Wu test, all of them are sitting here.
The entire Lingwu test venue was huge, the crowd was surging, and the other three sides were crowded with people, and everyone had a strange look on their faces, looking intently at the competition of everyone on the stage, and constantly making some strange noises in their mouths, which seemed extremely noisy.
The stage was paved with gray marble slabs, six feet high, octagonal in shape, with a wide stone pillar standing in the middle, on which stood an old man with white hair and white beard, who was looking intently at the race below, and it was obvious that this person was the referee of Ling Wuqian.
Excluding the thick stone pillar in the middle, the whole stage is divided into eight parts, each of which is divided by several red ropes that are divided by several smaller red ropes, and each piece is trapezoidal, which does not look crowded at all.
There are eight groups of contestants on the stage at the same time in each competition, two by two, to determine the winner or loser, if they are knocked down, they will be directly judged as a failure.
In this way, for a whole morning, 800 people were screened out to continue to participate in tomorrow's preliminary examination, and this was used to push within until the last 80 were left, so that they could enter the second step of the Ling Wu examination, the final examination stage.
And these eighty continue to go through layers of screening, until the last forty are left, entering the third step of the Ling Wu test, the palace test is over, only the winning twenty will be left to participate in the final challenge test, this is roughly the process of the Ling Wu test.
The eighty who can enter the final examination can get a one-star pill 'Peigu Dan' Although this pill is not as effective as the Condensation Pill, but for the Yuan Shi who peep into the first and second stages of the Yuan Realm, the effect is not bad, after all, the Yuan Dan is already a scarce thing, not to mention this kind of Yuan Dan that is beneficial to cultivation, it is even more precious, this can be regarded as Dongque's disguised encouragement of Yuan Shi to cultivate, after all, guarding the entire Dongque still depends on these young generation of talents.
And the forty people who can enter the palace examination can each get a one-star Yuan weapon, which is indeed more precious than Yuan Dan, which is beyond doubt.
And the twenty people who won the palace test, in addition to being able to be sent to Zhongzhou and become disciples of the Yunhuang Academy, each of them could also get a two-star yuan weapon and a condensation pill, the value of these two things, Rao is envy of forces like the four major families of Dongque.
In addition, if you can win the challenge test, you can get another Condensation Pill, and add a one-day tour of Lingwu Tower in Weiming City, which contains countless instrument scores, Dan scores, martial arts, and Yuan books, and the value of this is even more self-evident.
In general, a Ling Wu test can toss all the family forces in Dongque, and let those young talents who work hard to cultivate and have no background forces can change their fate with a blockbuster and soaring.
In addition, the holding of the Ling Wu trial also made a lot of profits for some people with crooked thoughts, human nature is greedy, and such a large gathering naturally has the word 'gambling'.
I don't know that it was from that year, every time the day before the Lingwu test was held, all the places for the competition would be announced to the public, with the quota, the strength of all parties began to choose the lottery, the so-called lottery is to select one person to be able to take the lead.
If the person you choose can enter the final exam from more than 1,000 people, you will win the corresponding money, and if you can enter the temple exam, or win the final challenge, the amount of money you can win will increase exponentially.
And the people who control these markets are basically the top two forces in Dongque, and the four major families are one of them, and the other is Qingfang.
In this way, this Ling Wu test, which is nominally a talent selection, is inevitably stained with some copper odor, which makes it even more interesting.
The crowd will not delay a single game, as long as there is a winning side, they will analyze it more to see how far they can go and see how much money they should put on this person.
Every time the Ling Wu test is over, there will be people who make a lot of money because of their discernment, and there will also be people who lose their fortunes, which is a common thing.
As for the term ten bets and nine losses, it is also useful in the Ling Wu test, and many families secretly manipulate and determine the key to victory and defeat to earn more money.
"Brother Qian, do you know where Tian'er has gone? I haven't seen his figure since yesterday?" Luo Kun was sitting on the stands at this time, sweeping through the crowd below one by one, looking very carefully, after all, he still didn't see Luo Tian's figure, and he was a little puzzled.
Although Luo Tian's name was not among the eight hundred in the first half, if he reported for a while and Luo Tian did not come, according to Ling Wu's rules, he would be disqualified.
Hearing this, Luo Gan also looked confused, Luo Kun told him earlier that Luo Tian had resumed his cultivation, he was suddenly pleasantly surprised, although he felt that it was unrealistic, but he didn't think that Luo Kun would joke with himself about it.
And when he heard that Luo Tian would participate in this year's Ling Wu Test, he was even more excited, and hurriedly rushed over with Luo Kun, in previous years, he and Luo Kun would never participate in such a grand event, and most of them were handed over to the elders of the clan.
And this year is different, Luo Kun is now the head of the family, his status is different, and it cannot be avoided according to the rules, as for Luo Gan, on the one hand, it is because of Luo Tian, and on the other hand, because of his unsuccessful son Luo Chuang, he will also participate in this year's Ling Wu test, although he beats and scolds Luo Chuang on weekdays, but he still cares about it in his heart.
As for Luo Kun, he bought all the funds used to bet in the family on Luo Tian, because he clearly knew Luo Tian's strength and was willing to believe in his son, so he did not hesitate to gamble, if he succeeded, this would be a very objective income compared to wealth.
"Yan'er, do you know where Tian'er went?" Luo Gan followed and also glanced at the crowd below, but to no avail, thinking that there was some accident, he gently patted Luo Yuyan, who was sitting below him, and asked softly.
"What's the matter? Brother Luo Tian hasn't appeared yet?" Before Luo Yuyan could answer, Luo Ziyao, who was sitting on the side, asked with a surprised face, she had been patronizing the fierce competition on the stage this day, and she had already thrown other things out of the clouds.
Luo Yuyan frowned slightly, and completely forgot about it, and when Luo Gan asked him like this, he found that he hadn't seen Luo Tian's figure for a whole morning.
"Yun Xuan, do you know where Luo Tian went?" Luo Yuyan looked at Yun Xuan on the side, thinking that the two of them had the closest relationship on weekdays, so she asked.
At this time, Yun Xuan was silently watching the game on the stage, and when he heard the words, he didn't speak, but just shook his head silently, looking indifferent, as if he didn't care about whether Luo Tian existed at all.
Yun Xuan didn't care, but someone seemed to be in a hurry, at this time, Yingqi, who was sitting on the side of Nangong's house, frowned, and the audience had no intention of watching the game, just like Luo Kun, just blindly scanning the crowd below to find it.
"Oh, there are still two more games before his turn, and I don't know where to run. Yingqi was holding a list in her hand, and saw her muttering anxiously while looking at the list, but her voice fell into the ears of Jian Nan, who was sitting on the side, he followed Yingqi's gaze and searched for it on the field, but he found nothing, looking at Yingqi's worried face, and hurriedly comforted.
"Don't worry, since he chose to participate in the Ling Wu Test, he will definitely come here, maybe because of something delayed. ”
After listening to Jiannan's comfort, Yingqi reluctantly stretched the sadness on her face, but her eyes did not stop at all, still scanning the dense crowd.
In addition to this side, looking up, there is also a person on the side of the Qizong who is doing the same thing as Yingqi, Wu Sisi is sitting in the stands very dignified, although he is not as anxious as Yingqi, but he is obviously a little anxious, but she is very well disguised.
At this time, due to the fierce competition on the stage, the following became more and more noisy, only to see one side of the stage, there were two people standing, the horn was just blown, and then I saw the figure of one of them suddenly disappeared from the stage, and when the person opposite him was looking around, he saw a person falling from the sky, falling lightly behind the person, lifting up is a kick, and the person was kicked off the stage, and in a short period of time, the person was easily eliminated, causing a sigh from the crowd watching the battle below.
"Big brother, big brother, it's up! It's up again! It's up again!"
A burst of excited shouts came, Cheng Wei rushed out of the dense crowd with an excited face, and shouted excitedly at Cheng Xiong, who was watching the competition on the stage.
"How much has it risen?" Cheng Wei suddenly became interested when he heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly turned his head and asked.
"Twice, this time Luotian's odds have become ten to one. Cheng Wei shouted excitedly, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and laughed from ear to ear.
"Bought it? Keep adding it up, add all our savings. Cheng Xiong almost didn't think about it, and shouted excitedly.
"I have already added it, except for the urgent use, I added a full two thousand, and now there are five thousand in total, if Luo Tian can successfully enter the palace examination, we will earn a full twenty times, twenty times Ah big brother, we are rich, hahaha." Cheng Wei seemed to have seen countless jade stones beckoning at him, and his eyes gradually became blurred, laughing wildly like a fool.
"Sect Master, but I haven't seen Brother Luo until now, you bought it desperately, what if Brother Luo is delayed by something and can't come?"
"Crow's mouth, why don't you hope for something better, my brother won't let me down, absolutely not. Cheng Wei reprimanded categorically, although he swore by it, his face gradually softened, and he looked around for a while.
Hearing this, although Cheng Xiong didn't say anything, it was not difficult to know from his face that he was also a little worried like Ye Zheng, after all, he knew Luo Tian, and he knew that if Luo Tian was really entangled in something important, he would definitely give up Ling Wu without any suspense and concentrate on dealing with his affairs, after all, he wouldn't be able to get much benefit from this Ling Wu triing.
"I'm sure Lotian won't let us down. Cheng Wei chose to trust brainlessly in this regard, and kept muttering to himself, as if he was comforting himself, after all, the surprise that Luo Tian brought him was too shocking, and often the more he arrived at this time, the more he had to strengthen his confidence.
The game is still in full swing, at this time the eight groups of personnel on the field, only one of them is still holding on to the stage, both of them are a little colorful, but they still do not admit defeat to each other, and they scuffle together.
The two of them were of similar stature, one of them looked a little stronger and a little taller, but he did not have an advantage, and the slightly shorter one, at the same time, dropped the weapon in his hand that had been chopped to pieces, and began to fight with you punch and kick.
I saw the tall one hug the short one tightly, making him unable to move, and then slammed it to the ground.
Seeing this, the short man jerked his leg back and kicked it on the head of the tall one, and the tall one received this blow and stumbled backwards two steps, and the short man took advantage of the momentum to chase after him, revealing his yuan power, and punched the tall one in the chest.
Everyone looked at the tall man lying on the ground, thinking that the victory was decided, and they didn't think that the tall one would sweep away the leaves in a strong wind, and slapped the floor with both hands, and tightly clamped the short man who had been relaxed with his legs, knocking him to the ground, raising his foot and kicking it violently, and the short man was kicked off the stage.
"What a fool, this can be knocked down. ”
"In the end, whether you have long eyes or not, no one has surrendered yet, you will take it lightly and deserve to fail. ”
"Fuck, Lao Tzu bought a heavy bet on you, and you actually lost Lao Tzu in the first round, and lost my money. ”
......
The crowd roared uncontrollably, and the noise was endless.
