118 Start the ascent of the mountain

Finally, on the day when Dabi began, there were bursts of bells from Yaowang Mountain, and at this time, a deafening sound was heard in all the courtyards." Now the big competition is about to start, please prepare to go to the Yaowang Mountain competition site, this is also the first small test, although it is not recorded in the total score, but you have to arrive at the competition place at noon, we will not care what happens during this period, but if you can't arrive on time, you will be disqualified from the competition, not much to say, now the competition begins. ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone saw a red light rising somewhere on the mountainside, thinking that it should be the location of their competition, Wang Pingfan looked at the red light and calculated the distance, from them to the foot of the mountain is about ten kilometers, from the foot of the mountain to the mountain, there should be about twenty kilometers, the total distance is only more than thirty kilometers.

Not to mention the speed of Wang Pingfan's one-star martial artist, even with the speed of Li Qiuling's current one-star martial artist, these more than thirty kilometers are only more than half an hour, and now there are at least two and a half hours before noon, it is absolutely impossible to just let you run over.

Li Qiuling looked at Wang Pingfan who was standing at the door and asked, "What, aren't you going yet?" My grandfather told me that your cultivation is extremely high, although he didn't use his spiritual power to survey your cultivation, but he guessed that you should have reached the nine-star martial artist, and with your speed, I'm afraid you can be the first to arrive, so arriving early or late will not affect the overall score, but the first one to arrive will always be impressive, but you promised my grandfather to achieve a good ranking. ”

However, Wang Pingfan still stood in place, glanced at the people who had already run towards the mountain, turned his head and said, "Qiu Ling, can you move your little head and think about it, this section of the road is about thirty kilometers in total, of which ten kilometers still belong to the city, and no one will interfere with you, but once you go up the mountain, you can't say for sure, after listening to the words of the person just now, you should understand that the next twenty kilometers are definitely not so simple... Why, why are you so red? Nothing is going to happen to you, is there?"

Wang Pingfan looked at Li Qiuling's face suddenly turned red from the beginning, could there be something wrong with his body? Hearing Wang Pingfan's words, Li Qiuling's face turned even redder and said, "I'm just too excited, you go on and say, leave me alone." But what I thought to myself was that this was the first time he had called me that.

Wang Pingfan didn't think about anything anymore, and then said, "What do you think, if you meet someone whose alchemy skills are obviously much higher than yours, but whose cultivation is not as high as yours, what will you do?"

This is Li Qiuling has calmed down and said, "Then you must find a way not to let the other party participate, after all, one less opponent, your own ranking can also be improved, do you say?"

Wang Pingfan nodded and said, "Yes, although it was stated before the game that you must not hurt the opponent, but it did not say that you must not interfere with the opponent, if you happened to encounter the situation just now, would you let him go? Anyway, your cultivation is higher than his, so you keep holding him back, and when you go up the mountain at the last moment, won't he be able to arrive in time? Naturally, he will be eliminated from the later competition." ”

However, Li Qiuling asked puzzledly, "Then if you do this, won't the people from the Alchemist Guild make a move?" After all, this is an alchemy competition, if a few strong people are directly blocked at the registration office, so that everyone can't go, isn't there no one? Then what is the point of the alchemy competition." ”

Wang Pingfan also shook his head and said, "You ask me, who do I ask? Who knows what those people are thinking? Isn't there not so many people participating in the past few sessions, and now there are so many people, it is estimated that they think there are too many people, and they want to directly remove a batch, and I estimate that only a small part of the people who are blocked, because even if your strength is higher than the other party, but do you dare to block those people who are stronger than you behind them?" The other party didn't participate in the competition this time because of you, and you think he will be able to let you go after he comes out, so it is estimated that the ones who are blocked are those who have little power or less power, and those who are extremely annoying, such as the little poison king, although there is a six-star alchemist behind him, but I estimate that there are definitely a lot of people who block him this time, because there are always those who claim to be righteous in this world. ”

Li Qiuling didn't say anything after hearing this, and asked after a while, "Then when are we leaving?" And with your strength, you don't need to be afraid of them at all! ”

However, Wang Pingfan shook his head again, "Forget it, anyway, there is not much reward for this first, and even if you go up later, it is estimated that there are still many people who are not worried about their skills, but if you encounter someone with strength and background, you probably can't go up, I will go up later with you, I promised your grandfather that he would help you if he has the opportunity." ”

Li Qiuling's face turned red again after hearing this, and he whispered, "Thank you." ”

Wang Pingfan waved his hand and said, "Don't be so polite, after all, I have also received a great favor from your grandfather, this is what I should do, you go back to the room to rest first, and I will call you when I leave." ”

Li Qiuling went back to the room after hearing this, but Wang Pingfan was still standing at the door looking at the person who was rushing to the mountain, and he didn't know why, Wang Pingfan suddenly had a heart-beating feeling, and always felt that something would happen in this competition that would change his life, but he couldn't figure it out at all, but after thinking about it, the boat would naturally go straight to the bridge, with his current strength, unless he encountered a strong man at the level of the Martial King to attack him directly, otherwise he would be able to escape.

After a while, everyone was almost gone, but Wang Pingfan looked left and right, and there were still a few people who stood at the door like him and watched, it seems that they should have guessed that this road is not simple, so they did not rush to set off, but to see what the person who left first in front of him would encounter.

An hour and a half later.

Wang Pingfan called Li Qiuling out and said, "It's almost time now, in case there may be other tests on the mountain, let's set off now." Li Qiuling also nodded, packed up his things and followed Wang Pingfan.

On the way to the foot of the mountain, the two of them did not encounter any difficulties, and they found that almost the distance they had traveled could not even be found, it should be that the Alchemist Guild had already arranged to block this area in case of accidents and prevent other forces from joining.

Soon, the two of them came to the foot of the mountain, as soon as they arrived, they had already heard all kinds of fighting sounds from the mountain, and even the roar of demon beasts, it seems that Wang Pingfan guessed really well, in addition to the battle between people on this mountain, I am afraid there are also battles between humans and beasts.

It's just that he still doesn't understand why the alchemist wants to do this, both to require these geniuses to have a very high level of alchemy and to have a certain combat ability, is this a whim of those high-level leaders, or is there any other purpose? Of course, these Wang Pingfan don't know anything, what he has to do now is to take Li Qiuling up the mountain safely, as for what will happen next, he can only look at it step by step.
