Chapter 32 Combat power first
Zhenshan Hou Mansion, Zhang lanterns.
Whether it is a prince or a princess, either a birthday banquet will not be held, or once it is held, there will definitely be a lot of pomp.
For people who want to make friends with the powerful and climb up, this is the best occasion to meet a lot of high-status people, if you can leave a good impression, it will be more convenient for future affairs, if you can make friends with one or two, the benefits are even greater.
If you don't enter the royal capital, you don't know that the money is small, and if you don't enter the royal capital, you don't know the official small.
In the royal capital, there are not only princes and princes, but also many rich and noble families.
Outside the Zhenshan Marquis's Mansion, the welcoming procession is lined up on both sides, spreading thirty meters long, with a red carpet in the middle.
As the owner of the Zhenshan Hou Mansion, of course the Zhenshan Hou will not stand at the gate to greet the guests, and Xiao Mingli, the protagonist of the birthday banquet, cannot stand at the gate to greet the guests, but the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion must be, because the identities of the guests who come are often different and cannot be neglected.
But those princes rarely come in person, after all, it is not the birthday of the Marquis of Zhenshan, but the birthday of the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenshan, the meaning of the two is different, the princes do not need to come in person, and they do not have that time, but it is appropriate to send people with higher status in the palace to send gifts.
One by one, young talents will come in person, no matter what, this is the birthday banquet of the daughter of the Marquis of Zhenshan, Xiao Mingli himself has the title of national scholar, which means that the talent and potential are amazing, and he is a beautiful woman with excellent appearance, who doesn't like it.
If you can get Xiao Mingli's favor and associate with him, it will naturally be better, after all, there are not many outstanding female warriors.
Chen Zong also paced from a distance, and then met the fat man Yang Qifeng.
"Brother Chen. Yang Qifeng looked like a smile on his face, and did not call Chen Zong Chen Guoshi.
"Brother Yang. Chen Zong smiled slightly.
"Brother Chen, thank you for saving your life last time. Yang Qifeng said, referring to the fact that Chen Zong saved his life from Ma Qianli's knife when he was chasing and killing the flower evil horse Qianli.
"You've thanked you four times. Chen Zong was a little speechless.
"The grace of saving lives is greater than God, I don't know how to repay Brother Chen, if it is a daughter, I can directly promise it. Yang Qifeng laughed, smiling, but his words were sincere.
"If you were a daughter, I wouldn't dare to ask for it. Chen Zong glanced at Yang Qifeng's round figure and said with a bit of teasing.
"Wow, if I were a daughter, I would definitely be enchanting. Yang Qifeng jumped up as if he had been stepped on and had a sore foot, and explained, and immediately, his little eyes narrowed, and he burst into essence, and after looking at Chen Zong a few times, he showed a look of sudden realization, and patted his head with a chubby palm: "I'm really stupid, I just think about it now, Brother Chen, I'm a little fatter, but I have a younger sister, that figure is absolutely enchanting, I will marry her to you, and we will be a family in the future." ”
Saying that, Yang Qifeng simply wanted to greatly appreciate his wit.
You must know that Chen Zong is a national warrior, and his talent and potential are amazing, it is not a problem for his future achievements to reach the pseudo-transcendent realm, and he may be able to become the first powerhouse under the transcendent realm of the dynasty like that mighty marquis.
Such a genius, if he can become his brother-in-law, it will be of great benefit to himself and the entire Yang family.
The more he thought about it, the more Yang Qifeng felt that it was feasible, it was a wonderful move.
Chen Zong couldn't help but be a little speechless.
"Alright, that's the end of the joke. Chen Zongdao interrupted the fantasy of the fat man Yang Qifeng.
Not to mention how outstanding Yang Qifeng's sister is, at this stage, Chen Zong will not think about these.
Yang Qifeng is also a wonderful person, so he naturally heard the meaning of Chen Zong's words, and couldn't help but feel regretful, but he didn't entangle, otherwise he would be disgusted, and he wouldn't even have to be a friend.
However, Yang Qifeng will not give up so easily, and slowly plot, it is always a good thing to let Chen Zong and himself become a family.
Chen Zongke didn't know Yang Qifeng's plans, walked to the gate of the Zhenshan Marquis Mansion, and took out the invitation card given to him by Xiao Mingli.
Yang Qifeng also has an invitation, but it was not sent by Xiao Mingli, and with the wealth of the Yang family, it is not difficult to get an invitation.
Immediately, a maid took Chen Zong and Yang Qifeng to the place where the birthday banquet was held, which was a garden in the Zhenshan Marquis's Mansion, called Yunhu Garden.
When he stepped into the Cloud Lake Garden, Chen Zong was slightly surprised, because the Cloud Lake Garden was a lake, and the place where the birthday banquet was held was on a man-made island in the center of the lake.
From the gate of Yunhu Park to the central island, there is a distance of almost three hundred meters.
"Two distinguished guests, please make your own way to the central island. The maid who led the way said with a smile.
Chen Zong and Yang Qifeng nodded, the three-hundred-meter lake was indeed difficult for Qi and Blood Realm martial artists to pass, and they had to use tools, such as small boats, etc., but it was nothing for martial artists who practiced the Jin Realm.
"Brother Chen, let's come faster than anyone. Yang Qifeng suddenly smiled, leaped forward, looked at the chubby body but was very flexible and light, after flying more than ten meters, his palms gently slapped towards the lake, and the whole person flew forward quickly, almost sticking to the lake, and quickly went to the central island.
Chen Zong smiled slightly, as if he was blown by a gust of wind, his body seemed to have lost its weight, and it floated forward like a feather, floating out lightly.
Although it was light, the speed was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, it swept more than ten meters, approaching Yang Qifeng, and then, with a light touch on the surface of the lake on the tip of his toes, he didn't even get wet on the tips of his shoes, and immediately flew forward, directly surpassing Yang Qifeng, leaving a back.
A distance of 300 meters, easily crossed.
Subsequently, Yang Qifeng also crossed the 300-meter lake and landed on the central island.
The speed is not as good as Chen Zong, and Yang Qifeng is not surprised.
The central island is about 200 meters long and 200 meters wide, and an exquisite wooden house is built on it, and outside the wooden house there are many tables of different shapes, with wine, melons and fruits, etc.
This is Xiao Mingli's birthday banquet, and it is also a party for the younger generation, and as for those who come on behalf of the princes, most of them will leave after giving gifts.
"Chen Guoshi, welcome. Xiao Mingli, dressed in a gorgeous costume, walked over, smiling like a flower, and for a while, Chen Zong became the focus.
Chen Zong also gave the gifts he had prepared.
Speaking of which, Chen Zong didn't know what gift to give Xiao Mingli for a while, to send a pseudo-spiritual weapon?
It's not suitable, and Chen Zong doesn't want to, because it's useful to himself.
Asked Shi Huanyue, because she was a woman, but Shi Huanyue didn't care much about anything other than the sword, and finally the Guan Mansion prepared a gift, some valuable things, which can be viewed, but have no substantive effect.
Whether it was being greeted by Xiao Mingli, or recently winning the national warrior, and beating Yuwen in the thorny dense forest competition in the national warrior pavilion, etc., the name Chen Zong spread all over the royal capital.
At this time, three figures flew back and forth over the lake.
The first one was like a big bird, clinging to the surface of the lake, and he didn't see his hands and feet moved, as if he was flying in the sky, but the lake below him kept rippling and rippling, as if there was an invisible force hitting again and again.
The second figure is carrying his hands behind his back, his robe fluttering, his long body standing still on his feet, but it seems to be gliding on the surface of a lake, as if he is stepping on a big fish under his feet, and the speed is amazing.
The third figure is a rapid movement of its feet, constantly stepping on the surface of the lake, rippling layer by layer.
No matter which one it was, it had a very direct impact on people, and Chen Zong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he could see that these three people had a high degree of control over their own strength.
"Brother Yang, do you know those three?" asked Chen Zong.
In fact, the time he has been in the royal capital for a long time is actually not long, and most of the time he has been cultivating, and he has little understanding of the genius of the royal capital, even if he knows the name, he has never seen a real person.
"Of course I know, those three are amazing. Yang Qifeng said teasingly: "They are the second, third and fourth places on the Dynasty Jiaolong List." ”
Hearing this, Chen Zong was surprised.
There are ninety-nine people on the Dynasty Jiaolong List, each of them has amazing combat power, and they have at least reached the level of the early stage of the four-star level, which is very powerful, and those who rank at the top have even reached the six-star level.
The second, third, and fourth are naturally geniuses with six-star combat power.
"All three of them have six-star mid-level combat power, and it is said that none of them are satisfied with the rankings. Yang Qifeng said in a low voice, as if he was saying some kind of gossip.
Chen Zong nodded, this makes sense, because the three of them are all six-star mid-stage combat power, at the same level, but some people are ranked second, some are third, and some are fourth, so they are naturally unconvinced.
The arrival of these three people undoubtedly increased the popularity of the birthday banquet a lot, and Xiao Mingli also warmly welcomed him.
Of these three people, although only one of them was a national soldier and the other two were not, no one dared to underestimate them.
Guoshi is indeed a symbol, but it does not mean omnipotent, some people cannot become Guoshi, but also because of bad luck, after all, under normal circumstances, there is only one Guoshi quota every year, not to cultivate to be advanced and powerful can be obtained, and everyone has only three opportunities to participate in the Guoshi election.
"It's coming. While Chen Zong was thinking, Yang Qifeng straightened up, and his small eyes shone with an astonishing light, faintly turning into two sharp rays of light that shot out.
Looking along Yang Qifeng's line of sight, on the opposite shore of the lake, which is three hundred meters apart, it is also the entrance of Yunhu Park that walks a figure, not very tall, neither fat nor thin, moderate figure, ordinary appearance, it seems difficult to find out the outstanding place.
Dressed in a black power suit, it looks even more ordinary.
However, Chen Zong couldn't take his eyes off it, and from that person's body, Chen Zong felt a threat.
It was not hostility, but the threat brought by great strength, as if the other party's body contained amazing power, and Yang Qifeng's words made Chen Zong know the source of that threat, and he was shocked.
"Brother Chen, his name is Ding Xuan, the first place on the Dynasty Jiaolong List, and the first person in the younger generation's combat power. Yang Qifeng said, his words were full of amazement: "His combat power is as high as the six-star stage, and it is said that his cultivation has broken through the boundaries of the cultivation realm and reached the Great Perfection. ”
"Great Perfection!" Chen Zong's heart couldn't help but be shocked.
Practicing the Great Perfection of the Qi and Blood Realm, that was Chen Zong's goal, but until now, Chen Zong still didn't know how to achieve the Great Perfection, after all, the cultivation of the Great Perfection of the Qi and Blood Realm had a lot of luck involved.
