Volume 1 The Gathering of the Storm Chapter 97 Big Deal!

In the evening, the cadets of the other martial arts academies arrived one after another, and the crowd gathered to go to the training ground in Reims, where the celebration party was held.

Song Chu also took the five people to the training ground, and introduced them as they walked.

When he arrived, Feng Huan saw that the original magic circle on the training ground had been cleared, and everyone was separated by a new magic circle.

On one side of the circle were clusters of students gathered together in the academy, while on the other side, there were eight checkpoints set up in the wide open space.

According to Song Chu, Lance's so-called New Year's celebration party is actually more of a game.

Eight levels are eight kinds of games, each level will get the corresponding clearance rewards, from silver money to cultivation materials are possible, the more clearance of the more rewards, and the top students in each game can also get additional rewards.

Reims Academy is responsible for providing the venue and designing the level, and the reward materials are provided by the lords. So in a sense, this party is also one of the ways in which the lord motivates the outstanding students.

However, after all, the original intention of the party was only to celebrate the New Year, and it was nothing more than to give the young martial artists of the various academies a chance to get together.

Therefore, the eight levels are designed to be relatively simple and entertaining, and there will not be such a strong sense of competition, and the rewards are not as rare as the rewards of big events like the Hundred Courtyards Joint Hunting Competition.

Because of this, although at this time of year, the Great and Small Martial Arts Academies in Staraway City will receive invitations from Lance Academy, not every academy will send students to be invited.

For example, those academies under the control of the Liu family, they usually don't deal with the Reims Academy, which is the lord behind them, and they don't look down on these rewards that are small profits for them, and they will even strictly prohibit their own students from participating in the party.

Generally, the smaller martial arts academies attach great importance to this kind of activity, and they will carefully select the most capable students, and some will even send teachers to lead the team, in order to fight for more things for the academy.

Other well-known colleges, although they don't put too much thought into an entertainment activity, will take into account the reputation of the academy and pick a few powerful ones to go out to support the scene.

Those colleges that don't go up or down are more freewheeling, as long as they don't exceed the quota limit for participants in each academy in Reims, you can go if you want.

After explaining these in detail, Song Chuchao said to the wind standing beside him: "So when I inquired about the news, I wondered, it's just a game, why does the lord ask Feng Huaijin to participate?

"Nine Heavens is also a pass to put it bluntly, why does Lan Sijing like to engage in these things?" Feng Huan glanced in the direction of the checkpoint, and then looked at the crowd on the training ground, "There must be three or four thousand people here, and there were so many people in the past?"

"An activity for all the students of the Martial Arts Academy in the city, this is not a lot of people. On the contrary, like the Hundred Academies Joint Hunting Competition, which is only for the latest students, the event is grand, but the number of participants may not be as large as today. Song Chu glanced at a few people, "Okay, let's talk to you about it first." You must have your own business to do tonight, so I won't waste any more time on you. ”

After saying goodbye, Song Chu squeezed into the crowd.

The people were still standing on the periphery and watching, not in a hurry to go inside.

"What do you mean, Su Hua named that Feng Huaijin to participate in tonight's activities?" Luo Han asked.

"It's clear that the lord has deliberately found us an opponent. The wind shouted.

"Could it be that the lord also knows about the war contract between you?"

"The news that can be found at the beginning of the Song Dynasty, it is not difficult to find out as a lord. However, I don't think it's likely to be the reason. Feng Huan analyzed, "I remember the first time I met the lord, Su Ying said that before they found us, they already had other partners to work with. Feng Huaijin himself is indeed excellent, and may be one of those 'partners'. The lord arranged for him to participate in the event, most likely not because he and I had a holiday, but because there happened to be such a person among the partners who could use it. ”

After the hustle and bustle, a bell of "Bang" happened to sound in the training ground, representing the beginning of the event.

The circle separating the card and the crowd disappeared, and the waiting students dispersed and gathered around the eight levels. From a distance, there are eight circles drawn on the training ground, each of which is the size of the martial arts arena in the center of the academy.

Only the central area is unmanned, and it seems that there is still a magic circle unsolved.

It's some kind of blinding circle, and you don't know what it is in from the outside. There was a man guarding the circle, and some curious people stepped forward to ask, but left without asking a few words.

In addition to this incomprehension, the overall atmosphere is as happy and cheerful as Song Chu said.

After all, it was the New Year approaching, and this Celestial Realm of the Jungle seemed to have more warmth, and the young martial artists were liberated from the intense cultivation of the whole year and got a short time to relax.

Regardless of whether others performed well or not, everyone would not hesitate to cheer and encourage, and the crowd was filled with laughter.

Many of them were clearly not here for the reward, but they were also immersed in the warm atmosphere, and a pure joy could be seen in the eyes of those people.

Feng Huan and other partners first watched those games, which are nothing more than the strength and speed of the martial artist, etc., can be carried out by multiple people at the same time, and it will not take long to get the results, so although there are many people waiting, the order is not chaotic.

Feng Huan is really not interested in these projects, they are really not challenging, and the rewards are not attractive to him who is currently not short of materials.

Nanhua and Luo Han showed great interest, one really thought the game looked fun, and the other had already begun to think about how much gold the rewards they had received could be exchanged for.

Feng Huan simply made an appointment with everyone to meet up and let them squeeze into the circle to join in the fun.

The wind himself walked straight to the center of the training ground.

He didn't find that any of the eight games could use Baiyu Lianhong, since Chu Zhaoye clearly said that the academy had set aside "performance time" for them, the things in the magic circle that had not yet been revealed in the center must be the highlight of today.

When he walked nearby, Feng Huan happened to hear someone asking, and the guard replied that only when the number of students who had completed the eight levels reached 100 would the final level in the circle be opened.

After the final level is opened, anyone who has completed any eight levels can join the challenge at any time, but there is only one reward, and the first successful one will be given the first priority.

Feng Huan began to panic when he heard this condition, and when he turned his head, his eyes were full of unfamiliar faces, and his partners had long since lost sight of where they were going.

After thinking about it, Feng Huan picked the closest circle and squeezed in, and decided to finish the eight levels by himself first.

After trying it out in person, Feng Huan realized that the difficulty of these eight levels was actually not consistent. There is a lot of flow of challengers for simple projects, and it looks like there are many people in line, but in fact it will be their turn very quickly. Although there are many people watching the difficult projects, most of them are just watching the excitement and have no intention of trying it in person, so they don't have to wait too long.

One of the levels stopped most of the mathematicians, and it was not as soon as Feng Huan imagined that there were 100 people in all levels.

You can get a token for each level, and if you collect eight tokens, you can go to the central area to register.

It happened that the meeting point agreed by Feng Huan was there, and when he quickly took the full token to register, Nanhua and Luo Han saw him sharply and beckoned to him from afar.

It turned out that the two of them competed for each of their abilities, and they competed together, and they got the tokens faster than the hustle.

The fourth one is Yunyan, who only learned about the final level from the chat of passers-by, and quickly cleared the level and came to converge.

But until the moment when the final level was announced, He Qingying was nowhere to be seen.

When the circle was lifted, all eyes were focused on the central area.

There, a wooden pillar that soared into the sky appeared!

The wooden pillar is about 100 meters high, which is the thickness that a person can barely wrap around, but its surface is smooth as a mirror, and there is no foothold.

At the top of the wooden pillar, a piece of rubble-like material with a strange sheen hovered, giving a mysterious temptation.

"Damn, Lance has made a lot of money this year, that's the Black Zhang's rough stone!"

An exclamation came from nowhere, spreading from the center like a wave, and after a while, the training ground became full of people, and the ears kept chanting.

"The student who has passed all the eight levels and is the first to climb to the top of the giant pillar will be able to take away the Black Zhang's Rough Stone!" a teacher dressed in a Lance Academy martial arts robe announced in a loud voice, "You can help each other, you can use tools, you can do whatever you want...... As long as you don't do anything immoral, you can give it a try!"

As soon as the teacher's voice fell, a strong man flew into the air in each of the four directions of the wooden pillar, seemingly to supervise the challenge process.

The hundreds of students who had already completed the preconditions immediately rushed to the wooden pillar and began to explore the way to climb.

"Blacksmith Rough Stone...... It's really a big deal. Feng Huan couldn't help but exclaim, "This kind of thing is also a rare item in the royal family, and the lord is actually willing to take it out and put it in an entertainment event as a reward?"

"Hustle, this is not a problem we have to think about now!" Nanhua said urgently, "The question now is, where did Qing Ying go?!"

Luo Han was also anxious: "Yes, Old Man Chu let us practice Baiyu Lianhong for a month, it must be for this item, but we have one less person now!"

"Don't panic, she's probably like me, she didn't know what those eight levels were all about at first, but now that the ultimate challenge has been revealed, she'll definitely understand. When she finishes the first eight levels, she'll come over. Yunyan comforted, "Besides, this level is not so easy, don't worry about someone taking the lead." ”

"That's right, don't mess around with yourself first, wait for Qingying. Feng Huan put his hand on Luo Han and Nanhua's shoulder, and motioned for them to look in the direction of the wooden pillar, "Don't worry, the opponent that the lord arranged for us...... Haven't played yet!"
