Chapter Ninety-Three: Into the Valley of Purgatory

After passing the examination, the soldiers led the people into the valley. There is already a team in the pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info. Seeing the arrival of these students, a general surnamed Du stepped forward and saluted everyone: "Hello everyone! My name is Du Wenlong, and I am the military commander stationed here, and I have been appointed as the commander-in-chief of this competition by General Wa Yanpei, the highest military governor of Xiguan. This is the Valley of Purgatory, and I will lead a thousand soldiers to enter with you to oversee the game and protect you. The four chairs are not allowed to participate in the cadet hunt. We will go with us to ensure your safety. According to statistics, there are a total of one hundred and twelve students participating in the four halls, although there is a difference in the number of the four families, fortunately, there are no more than five people, and the empire cannot eliminate the redundant personnel in order to select the candidates, so it was only approved by the owner of the four halls himself. I would like to make a brief statement in order to avoid resentment among students who feel that the competition is unfair and do not understand. ”

"It's no wonder that Fengtang would randomly add several of us. So that's it?。。。。。。 After General Du's explanation, everyone understood, after all, this is the empire's selection of elites, and they will not let talents drain in order to make the game fairer. Even if you have a lot of people, if your cultivation is not as good as that of the other three disciples, even if you can increase it several times, what is the use. The competition is about individual ability. In this way, it doesn't matter if everyone thinks about the difference in numbers.

Du Wenlong looked at it and continued: "In order for you and other students to maximize their cultivation, the empire has deliberately set the time of this competition for half a year. The results will be judged in three phases over a period of one month. After each result, you will be allowed to practice and rest for a month, which is not only a competition, but also a great time for you to cultivate. Now let me tell you, this so-called Purgatory Valley is actually a chaotic relic discovered by our Imperial Ancestor Emperor. If it weren't for the fact that you are the elite of the empire, ordinary people can only be qualified to hunt and cultivate here when they have achieved major military merits. ”

"Ahh。。。。。。h Seeing this, the people in the Lei Hall couldn't help but be stunned. Huang Li and Ji Wen have always talked about how dangerous this Purgatory Valley is, so much so that people imagine this place as a place where demons are rampant. Hearing this General Du say so solemnly, everyone realized that although this was a competition, it was actually a rare blessing.

Seeing this, Huang Li glanced at Ji Wen, and both of them smiled. Ji Wen was afraid that everyone would have the intention of underestimating the enemy, and stepped forward to remind: "It is indeed true that the source qi in the Purgatory Valley is full of depression, but don't think too beautifully, if you think that it was me and Teacher Huang Li who were scaring you before, it would be a big mistake, in history, our Lei Tang students came here to practice, and there were too many bloody lessons. Therefore, after entering, everyone must not act recklessly. ”

Du Wenlong also nodded when he heard this. Only then did he re-organize the crowd: "The ranking will be held in the first month after the start of the competition, and the top 50 will be selected to enter the second round. One month of cultivation is used as the adjustment period, and at the end of the third month, a second ranking will be conducted, at which time the top 40 will be taken, and so on, until the top 30 will be compared. Individuals who finish in the top three overall points will have additional rewards for the Empire. What exactly it is will wait for you to return from the experience, and His Majesty will personally present awards to them. As for the overall final ranking of each martial arts hall. The top 30 students will be regarded as the final ranking. Is it clear to everyone now?"

"Hey, didn't Your Majesty say that you want to take the top fifty as seeded players, why is it thirty now?" someone asked.

Seeing this, Du Wenlong explained: "What this student asked, I would like to state that His Majesty did say that he would select fifty students to be seeded in the Five Nations Elite Challenge in five years, but ten of these places will be reserved for the royal family's designated personnel, and they will also lead you to participate in the battle at that time." Another 10 places will be left and selected from the four cadet competitions after five years. Do you understand now?"

"Got it!"

All the students agreed, and their hearts became even more nervous, this quota was reduced by twenty again, wouldn't the competition be even more intense! You must know what an honor it would be to represent the empire to participate in the Five Nations Elite Challenge. Besides, none of them came to the Royal Martial Arts Hall with the expectations of the Shimen family. This can represent the entire empire, and it will surely be the glory of his life. It is also the best reward for the teachers who do everything to cultivate them. Even if the blood is spilled on the field, it will not hesitate! This time, all the students who came back to the scene were emotional, and their eyes began to become blood-red, and everyone couldn't wait for this quota!

Seeing this, Du Wenlong was also secretly amazed at the excellence of these students, such an elimination rate did not make them flinch at all, but made their ambitions erupt, worthy of being the elite of the imperial elite. Nodding his head, he reminded the students again: "After entering, everyone can act alone or in a group, and in the end, it will be based on individual results." Whoever gets the Nedan wins. The following hundred years of Taoism is the base number, and every hundred years of Taoism is added over a hundred years, and then ten are added to the base number, that is to say, if you hunt a demon beast of five hundred years of Taoism, its inner pill is counted as fifty instead of one under a hundred years, and so on. If someone can really hunt a demon beast that is more than a thousand years old, then it will triple on top of that. In addition, due to the scarcity of immortal grass in the ruins, if you have any gains, you will be counted to double the number of Inner Dan of the same Dao Demon Giant Beast. In addition, the prey that everyone has captured, including Neidan and Xiancao, will all be returned to our military. Of course, everyone has the right to keep it for their own use, but what they leave behind will not be counted in the results of the competition. Did you hear me clearly?"

"Hear me clearly!"

"Okay! Let's hand out storage bags specially prepared for this hunt, one per person. This storage bag has fifty times more storage space than a regular storage bag. It will be returned to our military when it runs out. After Du Wenlong finished speaking, he asked a soldier to step forward and divide it among the four students. Although this kind of storage bag is not as good as the storage ring made of empty fluorite in Qin Jian's hand, the materials in it are also mixed with a large number of empty fluorite raw materials, which is much more precious than ordinary storage bags. Of course, the military can't afford to send this kind of good, so it will definitely have to be returned when it is used up. Otherwise, some students really have the idea to stay for their own use, hehe!

Seeing that the storage bags were distributed, Du Wenlong nodded at everyone and said cautiously again: "I especially ask everyone to pay attention to the fact that the demon beasts in the ruins are very powerful, and there are huge numbers, everyone is the elite of the empire, and they must not be greedy for temporary profits and fall into a crisis." Always be aware of your connection with your peers and protect yourself. Our large army will follow you ten miles away, and if you encounter a monster that you can't fight, you can contact us with a warning or evacuate quickly. Don't go it alone. Okay, what else do you have to ask?, if not, we'll go straight to it. ”

This General Du can be said to be very caring for these students. At this time, he looked at all the students again, and deliberately turned to look at the four chairs such as Huang Li and Ji Wen, and saw that everyone had no doubts, so he gave the order to leave. After less than half an hour of walking, the valley had come to an end, and just as everyone was looking at where this Purgatory Valley was hiding, the soldiers in front had already twisted towards a boulder, and soon the source power on the boulder suddenly fluctuated violently, and a large number of runes rose into the sky. In a few breaths, a huge portal opened from the middle of the boulder that could accommodate dozens of people.

Qin Jian and the others also saw the wonder of this chaotic relic for the first time. All of them couldn't help but be shocked. Just when everyone was amazed, General Du had already ordered everyone to walk in quickly. I think the door of this chaos relic can't be opened for a long time, and before everyone can come to their senses, the boulder behind it has already been closed. There was no indication that it had ever been a gate.

At this time, everyone took a closer look at the inside of this ruin, it turned out that it was also a space, and it was not much different from the outside world, with mountains, rivers, clouds, pines and waterfalls, all available. Not only is the scenery picturesque, but the air inhaled into the body is even more refreshing. It turned out that what General Du said was indeed true, and the concentration of source gas in this ruin was several times higher than that of the outside world. People are here, and their spirits are shaken. Faintly, even his cultivation seems to be constantly improving. If you can cultivate here for a long time, it will definitely be much faster than the outside world. It is indeed a rare cultivation extreme. No wonder the Empire used this experience as a reward.

But the most strange thing is that the sun is shining inside this ruin, I don't know if the sun rising above is the same as the one outside, or if there is another sun rising here, everyone is stunned by this magical phenomenon.

Mura Wenlong stepped forward and explained to these students: "This chaos relic is really amazing, not to mention that you are new to here, even if you are resident here, you will not be able to understand it. However, according to the Emperor Taishang of our empire, it should not be the same as the sun in the outside world, but made by an ancient immortal beast. ”

"Wow。。。。。。 Everyone was even more amazed when they heard this, how many years did this ancient immortal beast have to practice before it could produce such an inner pill, it was too incredible?

Du Wenlong saw that everyone was amazed, and a knowing smile appeared on his face. According to surveying and mapping, this relic is about 3,500 li long and 2,000 li wide, which is extremely wide. At this moment, the place we are in is considered the periphery of the ruins, as long as we go two or three miles, there will be demons and giant beasts. Remember that in the previous month, you could not go fifty miles beyond the ruins, and our large army would be stationed thirty miles ahead. Stay safe, everyone. I announce that the hunt will begin soon. β€œ

Huang Li and Ji Wen couldn't help but secretly slander when they saw this, this competition was too extensive, they only talked about the hard rules on time, and didn't even talk about the details. And there is no provision on whether students can use talismans or magic weapons, which is very general. It seems that Elder Ke Yue is too right to give himself so many spirit runes, and there is a lot to do about this rule! When they thought of this, the two of them felt much more at ease.

So he stepped forward again and told the students about the things to pay attention to and how to deal with them in case of crisis. After all, the actual battle is about to be fought, and the two of them can't afford to take responsibility in case of casualties, and this time it's a game, and it's also very important that there are more demon monsters there, and the game can't have a map, so they also informed the direction of Dazhi at this time.

Ji Wen was still a little uneasy, and reminded again: "The first time I hunted, I think it is better for everyone to act together, if you attack individually, in case of a crisis without a response, it will be extremely dangerous, and after everyone is familiar with the environment here, it is safer to act separately." ”

"Yes!" everyone nodded yes. However, Huang Li and Ji Wen didn't say who would take the lead. Thinking that they had already thought of these things for the students to solve on their own, this was also a big test for these students. If they themselves can't straighten out the relationship and have internal strife, then they won't be called imperial elites.

After a while, General Du had already sent people to urge Huang Li and Ji Wen, and they were going to camp with a large army. Huang Li looked at the students again, and finally his gaze fell on Qin Jian's face.

Qin Jian immediately showed a resolute look and nodded cautiously to him. Huang Li and Ji Wen quickly left with the large army.

"Xiao Jian, let's go together!" Qing Jianghai and Wu Ke were about to pick up Xiao Jian and leave. Someone among the other students had already spoken: "Qing Jianghai, Qin Jian, Wu Ke, just now Teacher Jiwen said that we will act together, right?"

In fact, Qin Jian originally wanted to wait for the hunt to start, and he wanted to take the opportunity to find Xiao Lingling. Now everyone is following the requirements of Teacher Ji Wen, and they can't leave the team. Looking up at the Wind Hall, they had already gone forward, thinking that the Wind Hall side was also thinking the same as them, asking all the students to act together to adapt to the environment. At the moment, he can't find Xiao Lingling. And after this delay, their Lei Tang was already a big beat behind the other three.

"Let's act together! If you encounter demonic beasts, you can use the 'Su Lei Four Elephant Array' to trap them and then hunt, which will save you a lot of danger. Even if we encounter a demon beast that is profound and difficult to deal with, everyone can use spirit runes to deal with it at the same time, and it is stronger than us alone. Although we have a lot of spirit runes in our hands, the game is long, and we don't know much about the strength of the demon monsters in this place。。。。。。 ”

After Qin Jian's words, everyone felt very reasonable. So someone took the opportunity to shout: "Xiaojian! There are so many of us who act in unison, and we must have one person to lead, so you can lead everyone!"

As soon as this student proposed, everyone groaned slightly, and immediately echoed loudly. After all, so many people don't have a leader, so can they do it? Although everyone is a student, there is no humble difference, and the two teachers did not specifically designate who to lead. But since they are acting together, someone has to be the leader. Although Qin Jian was the youngest among all the students, his ability to break through the third level of the Dawn Passage had already left an indelible impression in their hearts. For cultivators, strength is everything.
