Chapter 45: The Second Assessment
"Boom!" a three-legged giant bull screamed, and a burst of blood spilled out of its neck, and then slowly fell. Bayi Chinese Network ? Ye Feng exhaled, took the crystal nucleus that had just arrived and was still hot, and said with a smile: "The first task, complete!"
It has been two days since Ye Feng came to the Black Smoky Forest, and the main time is spent looking for this guy. And after that, things went well, this big guy is just a newcomer to the Qingjing Realm, and he is not at the same level as Ye Feng.
According to what Tang Su said, as long as you take this crystal nucleus to the nearest imperial court station, you can receive the next task, and after completing it, you can go to the center of the big 6, Longdu, to participate in the real Heavenly Expedition selection.
When the time comes, the young talents of the world will gather together and distinguish the superior.
"Hehe!" Ye Feng laughed, lying on the ground and looking at the night sky, the red fire hit his face, illuminating his face with some fortitude. He is no longer the child who just came out.
Ye Feng thought of what happened in the past two years, and he also felt a little incredible. Especially the Reverse God Mirror, what kind of secret is hidden? After that day, the big monster never appeared again, and Ye Feng didn't know if he was gone, or if he was sleeping in the mirror. Anyway, the Reverse Mirror has become the same as an ordinary mirror, and there is no movement anymore.
Ye Feng scratched his head, this didn't seem to be something that could be understood at his level.
Suddenly, Ye Feng's gaze rested on the trunk of a tree not far away, where a not-so-tall figure stood. Ye Feng's heart was half cold, and with his strength, he didn't even notice when this person was standing there. In other words, this person's strength is far above him, but he does not know whether he is friend or foe.
But this person is masked, he can't tell who he is, and he doesn't seem to be a good person.
"Who are you?" Ye Feng said with a frown.
"Hiss!" The man did not speak, but raised his hand silently, and a ray of light popped out, aiming at Ye Feng and shooting straight down. Ye Feng was frightened, and his feet were floating in ghost steps, so he barely avoided the light. It's just that the light left a bottomless hole in the ground. If it is corrected, I am afraid that Ye Feng will hang up directly.
This person clearly wants Ye Feng's life.
Ye Feng was secretly shocked in his heart, he didn't remember that he had offended such a strong man. Could it be the Hongcheng City Lord? This place is already far away from the Tiangu Dynasty, so the Hongcheng City Lord certainly doesn't dare to be so bold. Coupled with the pressure of the monarch of the imperial capital, he will never be embarrassed by himself.
"What the hell do you want to do, you want me to die clearly, right?" Ye Feng scolded angrily.
The man was silent for a moment, and then said lightly, "It's strange that you like to meddle in things." "The voice is ethereal, and I can't hear the age of the man or woman.
As soon as the words fell, I saw that the man's big hand probed, and a huge spiritual energy giant hand suddenly took shape, and caught it straight towards Ye Feng. The aura had locked him in lock, and there was no way for him to dodge. Ye Feng gritted his teeth, his breath rushed up, his whole body was shrouded in a golden light, and the dragon's breath roared.
Ye Feng threw out the dragon fist and hit it fiercely at the aura big hand. But as soon as the two came into contact with each other slightly, Ye Feng collapsed like a mountain, and his aura was crushed into pieces by a thread.
The difference in strength is too great.
"Roar!" Another dragon groan sounded, but this time the sound was not comparable to Ye Feng's degree. The momentum alone made people wonder if there was a real brute dragon present at the scene.
A golden dragon head collided with the giant hand of the aura, and the nearby woods were uprooted by a strong hurricane!
A big dry but powerful hand pressed on Ye Feng's shoulder, but it made him feel at ease. Ye Feng turned his head and shouted in surprise: "Master!"
The person who came was Ye Feng's mentor, the old man of the days!
The old man smiled at Ye Feng, took a step forward, and said, "Your Excellency is obviously just a famous and a master, doesn't it seem like a big bully to a small child in such a veiled face?"
The man said lightly, "You're in luck." The figure suddenly blurred, then vanished into smoke.
Ye Feng exclaimed: "Master, he has disappeared!"
The old man said: "It's just a wisp of clone." ”
Ye Feng exclaimed: "A doppelganger can be so powerful, who is he?"
The old man shook his head and said, "This person deliberately concealed it, and I can't tell who he is." After such a long absence, the two masters and apprentices felt very cordial in their hearts, and they chatted for a night.
Hearing Ye Feng's experience over the years, the old man was surprised and shocked, but in the end he still felt very relieved. Ye Feng dried much better than he expected.
"Well, good job little guy, even if I'm your age, I don't necessarily be able to beat you. The old man smiled.
Ye Feng laughed, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Master, there is a sentence that if I don't ask well, don't be angry." ”
The old man was stunned for a moment and said, "What?"
Ye Feng said: "Imperial Court Holy Lord, what kind of existence is it? They said that you once attacked him, is it true?"
The old man sighed when he heard this, and said: "It's true, all these years I have been running around all these years are related to this person, but I can't tell what kind of person he is." Ye Feng, let me tell you, this person is something you must not pay attention to, even if you really get a good ranking in the Heavenly Expedition, you must not join the imperial court, otherwise, the relationship between our master and apprentice will be broken. ”
Ye Feng was taken aback and hurriedly said: "No, I just want to try my strength, and I don't want to live that kind of life." I'm not interested in any high-ranking officials. ”
The old man smiled slightly, and said apologetically: "Don't blame the master for being too unreasonable, you are my apprentice, I won't harm you." ”
Ye Feng nodded and said seriously: "I know." After thinking for a while, he said, "Master, where are you going next? Do you want to go with me to explore the world?"
The old man said: "I would like to, but I still have something to do." If this matter can't be solved, I won't be at ease for the rest of my life. ”
Ye Feng said: "What's the matter, can I help you?"
The old man touched Ye Feng's head and said with a smile: "This is not an area that you can be involved in now, but I have a hunch that sooner or later I will need your strength." ”
Ye Feng Zhengse said: "As long as the master needs it, the disciple will never give up!"
The old man laughed and said, "Okay, with a disciple like you, I can be regarded as earning." I'm leaving, take care of yourself. Ye Feng was still a little reluctant in his heart, but he still didn't keep it in the end, because he knew that there were still very important things to do in the heart of the old man, which was enough to affect his lifelong wish.
Looking at the back of the old man leaving, Ye Feng's heart was a little gloomy, he always felt that this time the separation would be a great test. Maybe it's not going to be the last time we'll see each other.
Ye Feng shook his head and fell to the ground, secretly saying in his heart: "As long as I am strong enough, I will be able to help the master sooner or later." Otherwise, I'm just a burden!" Thinking about it like this, his heart was much better, and Ye Feng suddenly fell asleep.
He didn't know that the old man didn't go far, but quietly followed him for a few days, until he felt that the mysterious man had not come forward to attack Ye Feng, and the old man left.
And Ye Feng also went to a big city and used the crystal nucleus of the six-pointed ghost-eyed cow to obtain the qualification for the next test.
At this time, the Imperial Court Heavenly Expedition was already in full swing in the Big 6, ignoring the fact that young talents had gone to various examination centers in various places to pass various exams. The city where Ye Feng was located had already gathered hundreds of young masters. A large part of them are also strong people who have advanced to the Huaqing Realm.
These people have all passed the first test, and many of them are masters. What caught Ye Feng's attention the most was a group of people. Probably because the Earth Cultivation City was extremely close to the headquarters of the Heavenly Feather Divine Gate, most of their disciples gathered here. Among them, the leader is Zhu Shantide, who has seen it in the inheritance of the Great Heavenly Sage!
Zhu Shantian's strength has also been greatly improved compared to before, and that obscure aura proves that he has not been in vain all these years. And although the others are also extraordinary, how can they be compared to the Tianyu Divine Sect.
Zhu Shantian stood there alone, and he had already suppressed the atmosphere of the scene. While Ye Feng was quietly watching him, Zhu Shantian also noticed Ye Feng. saw him smile coldly, swiped his fingers around his neck, and made a gesture of "kill you".
Ye Feng smiled bitterly, at that time, there was a big difference in strength between him and Zhu Shantian, but I don't know what about now?
"Ahem......" A somewhat muddy cough sounded, and a middle-aged man walked over. Although he looks sick, he is undoubtedly not a person with some strength present, and he knows at a glance that this person is by no means simple.
The middle-aged man walked to the field and said slowly: "Everyone, I am the chief secretary of the imperial court and the chief examiner of the second round of exams. The assessment of the royal court is different in different places, and the basic examination is determined by the examiner. In other words, it's up to me to decide how many people I want to pass this exam. ”
The crowd nodded, but didn't say anything.
The director continued: "I now announce that only one of you will pass this assessment at most!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was in an uproar! Although we have heard that the imperial court has a strict examination, but only one of the hundreds of people here can pass, isn't that too strict? Most of them are brothers from the same sect or are their own brothers. If only one person makes the cut, it's a big problem that will be difficult to solve.
The middle-aged man coughed again, and suddenly released a powerful aura, suppressing the noisy atmosphere of the scene! Everyone just appeared, but this man's strength was unfathomable, even stronger than they estimated.
"On the top of the West Eagle Mountain, I put a token. Those who get the token will advance to the next round of the test. The director said lightly, and then said: "Time, twelve hours, if the time is up, no one will come back with the token, and no one will pass the test of the city of earth repair!"
"Wait a minute, you're too domineering, aren't you? It's only the second round of exams, why are you so excessive?" someone couldn't help but say angrily.
The director said lightly: "Because I am the exam rules, I have the final say, if you are not satisfied, you will quit now, I will not stop it." But I advise you, it's better to hurry up, when you complain about this and that, people are already one step ahead of you. ”
When the man saw it, sure enough, someone was already rushing towards the direction of the West Eagle Mountain, and he couldn't help but feel nervous, gritted his teeth, and followed. For a moment, hundreds of people rushed in one direction like bees.
Ye Feng and Zhu Shantian glanced at each other, and then they both followed unhurriedly.
The director looked at Zhu Shantian's figure, sneered, and said to himself: "Tianyu Divine Gate is really spiritual, Lao Tzu will let you pass alone at most, and see how you are tossing and turning in the imperial court." In a lower tone, it seemed that he had some grudges with the Tianyu Divine Sect. And it just so happened that he was the chief examiner of the Earth Cultivation City, so this was intentionally difficult. After all, most of the people of the younger generation of Tianyu Divine Sect are here to participate in the assessment. Only a small number of people who practice outside the country choose the nearest test center.
Ye Feng was not in a hurry, so many people rushed up, no matter how easy it was to find the token, it was not easy to get it. And in fact, before reaching the mountain, a large part of the population is already doing it.
Ye Feng didn't participate, but tried to avoid the crowd of people who were fighting, after all, it was not wise to waste physical strength in such a place.
Of course, the calmer the person, the less easy it is to make a move, and when everyone encounters a fight, they all avoid it in a low-key manner, and then rush to the mountain.
When Ye Feng arrived at the top of the mountain, there was already a large group of people there, everyone was blushing, fighting for an inconspicuous token.
Ye Feng didn't rush to fight, and after secretly observing it, something was wrong.
A dozen or so of them seemed to be a team, working together against the others. In a short time, most of them have been defeated. There was also a person, standing in the middle of the dozen or so people, holding the token in his hand, sneering at the battle in front of him. A dozen of you look like you're helping the guy capture the token.
Ye Feng thought about it carefully, and he understood that this person should be the descendant of a certain big family, and those people were the thugs he had invited. After all, the assessment of the Imperial Court Heavenly Expedition is extremely strict, and those people are also self-aware, rather than bothering to fight for the position that they don't know if they can get it, it is better to take a generous fortune to help this rich young master pass the exam.
And gradually, there are also some people who realize that something is wrong. The strength of those dozen or so people was also the seventh order of the Condensation Realm, and the strongest one had even reached the fifth order of the Transformation Clear Realm. Who else can compete with such a combination? Most people have to leave quietly after sighing. After all, their opponent is not the rich young master, but the big family behind him, who can stand it?
Ye Feng shook his head and said secretly: "This world is really corrupt, what's the point of such an assessment?" At this time, most of the people had already left, and the rest were all knocked to the ground.
The rich young master stomped on the face of a loser arrogantly, and said coldly: "Hmph, fight with the young master, are you poor ghosts worthy?"
Ye Feng was furious when he saw this, this person not only used such dirty methods, but also treated the losers like this, it was really shameless. In anger, he stepped on it, and the branch snapped.
The thugs immediately shouted, "Who is hiding in the shadows? Get out of here!"
