Chapter 244: The Wind Rises
The wind is blowing.
Zhu Luan stepped out of the carriage, waved goodbye to Princess Jinyang and Xu Fengniang, and walked into the air where he might exist.
"Zhu Ying, you're here."
Hong Shan looked at his friend who found his fiancée in the crowd at the first moment, and sighed again that Duan Lizheng was still hopeless.
"You didn't come with such a big sword today?"
Zhu Luan greeted Duan Lizheng and the others with a smile, stroked the scabbard that her sister hung for her at her waist, and only said one word in the face of Hong Shan's ridicule.
"Heavy."
Hong Shan choked for a moment, why didn't you see you say heavy when the county test and the township test came on the field with a big bundle of iron swords.
"That's really a pity...... a small head poked out from behind Hongshan, it was Liang Ziliang.
Where are the regrets? Hong Shan glared at him, didn't you also fall under those iron swords back then, and indirectly made a name for this woman's magical swordsmanship?
"I can't see Sister Zhu's broken sword this year......" Liang Ziliang's voice was really regrettable.
This man is really healed, the scar has forgotten the pain......
"I'd like to show people from other states about it......" the boy continued.
Duan Lizheng, Nian Huazang and the others were speechless, but thinking of the criticism that Zhu Luan had received before, it seemed good if they could really let these gods see it......
"You can make them look at something else." Zhu Luan laughed on the side, "Let's go, let's go up the mountain." ”
Will try the last martial arts test.
Of course, it is held on Mt. Fusu.
On the other side of Mt. Fusu on the mountainside.
For the people, although they can't cross Fusu Mountain, this is also a precious moment for them to get a glimpse of the appearance of Tiance Upper House once every three years.
This shows the importance that the Great Zhou royal family attaches to the national examination, and at the same time aggravates the already tense atmosphere.
The students went up the mountain under the leadership of the examiner, looking at the scenes of Baijiadao and Merlin that vaguely appeared in the distance, and their hearts were full of enthusiasm.
And Zhu Luan just glanced at the bamboo forest in the distance and opened his mouth slightly.
"Did you just say something?" has been walking beside Zhu Luan, Duan Lizheng suddenly looked at Zhu Luan.
"Nothing." Zhu Luan smiled and shook his head.
"Really?" Duan Lizheng turned his head suspiciously, the voice was too soft, and the other partners around him didn't react, maybe he heard it wrong.
At that moment, he heard the girl beside him call softly.
"Master."
After a long mountain path and through dense woods, the group came to a very high platform halfway up the mountain.
This high-level Duan Lizheng is very familiar.
This is the martial arts platform of Tiance Academy.
Compared with the martial arts platform of Ziyang Academy, where the Huizhou Township Test is located, although it covers a much larger area, it does not seem to use any precious materials, and the stone of the base is black and swarthy, and it does not look good.
But Duan Lizheng knew that this was not the case.
This is one of the true foundations of Tiance Academy.
Compared with the formation of Ziyang Academy that allows the formation master to place outside the high platform, the martial arts platform of Tiance Academy is a formation in itself.
Every stone that makes up this high platform is covered by formations.
These black stones are actually legendary iron rocks.
Very hard, extremely impact-resistant, each piece is worth a thousand gold.
And only such an impregnable high platform can allow the students of Tiance Academy to fight on it.
The large array formed by the entire high platform exuded a chilling aura in the sunlight, and many candidates held their breath as soon as they arrived in front of them.
"Tiance Academy is indeed worthy of its name."
It is indeed worthy of its name, not only the martial arts platform, but also the viewing platform in the distance.
Through the adjustment of the angle and formation, although there is a certain distance between the observation deck and the martial arts platform, what you see is as real as if it is happening in front of your eyes, and you don't need clairvoyance to see it clearly.
Du Haoqian sat in the observation deck, looking at Duan Haochu beside him, many other officials sitting next to him echoed him, and the entire observation deck was full of beautiful voices.
"Alright, stop boasting, here we go." Du Haoqian's eyes flashed with a touch of impatience that was difficult to find, and he looked at the candidates gathered under the high platform in the distance.
With the sound of the bell outside the Jixia School Palace, this battle that is destined to be extraordinary began in this ordinary process.
The examiners routinely introduced the rules.
But everyone has experienced the township test, and they are all familiar with the rules.
For Zhu Luan, this rule is more simple and crude.
Because she had a bye in the first round.
In order to ensure that the two-on-two battle is established, the guild tries to eliminate enough people in the first two rounds. In the end, the third battle of the Great Zhou Conference was examined, with a total of 115 people.
Thirteen people had a bye in the first round.
It is the township test of the thirteen states.
The remaining one hundred and two people drew lots to fight against each other to determine the fifty-one people who advanced to the second round except for Xie Yuan, and finally sixty-four people advanced to the second round.
At the same time, similar to the rules of the township test, in addition to the lottery, the second round is also allowed to challenge Xie Yuan. Xie Yuan cannot refuse, otherwise he will be deemed to have abandoned the exam, and the opponent will advance to the next round on his own.
Xie Yuan back then, this time he no longer needs to pronounce his name.
As the sixteen bells rang in unison, Duan Lizheng smiled at Zhu Luan, "I'm going." ”
The people around Zhu Luan left her one after another and went to draw lots.
The pride of the sky in Huizhou has lost the opportunity to have a bye for the first time, and they must go to the lottery box in the hands of the examiner to draw lots like other lifters, and fight from the first round.
The same is true for other states.
This is a test.
There are only thirteen people in the whole country who can have such an honor.
There is only one person in one state.
So there's no need to pronounce the name to let them out.
Only people leave from them.
There was a large blank space in the originally crowded crowd, and the thirteen people stood on the grass in front of the stage like the distribution of the thirteen states of the Great Zhou.
The only woman was among them.
Nature attracts the most attention.
Xie Yuan inevitably looked at each other, but at this time, people found Huizhou Xie Yuan and Lanzhou Xie Yuan...... There is no communication at all.
"That woman must be nervous in this scene......
"It's still a little dazzling to look at......"
There was a whisper from the crowd, but soon the talk died down, as the first round of the battle soon began.
It might be more appropriate to call it a dogfight.
People who were attracted by Zhu Luan's existence and even gossip were quickly attracted by the battle on the high platform.
The people of the Great Zhou raised the wine jugs they had brought, chatting and laughing, and were ready to enjoy the top-notch battle among the cultivators.
But soon people stopped laughing.
The first battle was an ordinary disciple of the Great Zhou Dynasty who raised his son against the Xiliang Sword Pavilion.
The incense on the stage was only half burned.
Not even half an hour later.
That Great Zhou Juzi was a disciple of the Xiliang Sword Pavilion.
Pick under the sword.
