Chapter 18, the ranking tournament begins
Half a day's time passed quickly, and the results of the preliminary examination came out, and the rest of these people were all people who were going to take the government examination.
Looking around, most of these people's cultivation is around the fifth layer of the Qi Sea Realm, and the elder brother is full of spirit and extraordinary.
Just when Ji Fengtian was stunned, Yan Yang's figure appeared on the high platform, looking down at the young man below.
"This city lord hereby congratulates you on entering the palace test! Everyone go to the gate of the city lord's mansion to exchange for the token on their bodies, and prepare to participate in tomorrow's ranking. Yan Yang said loudly.
The one hundred and thirty people on the stage were excited, and finally entered the house to test. Even if you are defeated in the government test, if you perform well, there will be some big families who will take the initiative to invite you to join, which is more beneficial than being eliminated now.
Everyone left the ring one after another and rushed towards the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Brother Ji!" Yan Chihuo beckoned Ji Fengtian to arrive.
"Brother Red Fire!"
"Let's go over together!"
"Good!"
When the two of them arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, the other teenagers were already queuing. Looking at the long queue, Ji Fengtian felt helpless, so he could only stand behind and wait quietly.
Half an hour later, Ji Fengtian looked at the number plate in his hand, and a strange look appeared on his face.
"Sure enough, it's the last one!" sighed helplessly.
"Hehe, it's finally done. Yan Chihuo wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a long sigh of relief.
"Brother Chihuo, it should be no problem for you to cut into a line, right?" Ji Fengtian looked at Yan Chihuo curiously.
"Since everyone can be arranged, why should I be special, anyway, I just have a number plate. Yan Chihuo said with a smile.
"......" Ji Fengtian suddenly found himself speechless.
"Brother Ji, I'm in for a treat, let's find a place to eat!"
"Then thank you Brother Chihuo!" Ji Fengtian said with a smile.
Sitting in the private room of Shiweitian, Ji Fengtian ordered a few small dishes at random, asked for two pots of wine, and the two chatted while eating.
"Brother Chihuo, do you have any information about these teenagers who participated in the assessment?" Ji Fengtian asked curiously.
"There are a few very powerful ones, and I have some information here, but compared to you, I think they are all trivial. Yan Chihuo said casually.
"Brother Chihuo has won the prize, I don't know if you know that Lan Yun in the No. 6 ring?"
"Lan Yun is not from Huoyue City, he is a disciple of the Lan family, one of the four great families of Muyang Mansion. At the age of fifteen this year, his cultivation has already reached the ninth layer of the Qi Sea Realm. He has cultivated the high-grade martial art Huoyun Palm, ranking third among the younger generations of the four major families in Muyang City. Yan Chihuo said.
"The ninth layer of the Qi Sea Realm is ranked third, so wouldn't the other people have reached the Ning Dan stage?" Ji Fengtian said in surprise.
"No, there is only one person who has reached the early stage of Ning Dan, that is, Lu Yu of the Lu family, Xue Ruo, who ranks second, is still at the peak of the Qi Sea Realm, and Feng Lei, who is the fourth in the Qi Sea Realm, is the ninth layer of the Qi Sea Realm. Yan Chihuo said.
"Oh, it's really a young handsome, little brother admires it!" Ji Fengtian said with admiration.
"Hehe, I think Brother Ji is the demon among geniuses!" Yan Chihuo exclaimed without hesitation.
"Hehe, I don't know where that Lu Yu took the preliminary exam?" Ji Fengtian asked curiously.
"I don't know about this, the children of the four major families go out to practice, and the general news is rarely revealed, but this Lan Yun is very particular about pomp and circumstance, and he takes the fan group with him everywhere. Yan Chihuo shook his head and smiled.
Hearing Yan Chihuo say this, Ji Fengtian suddenly thought of the previous assessment, during the assessment process, there was a group of people outside the field who were there to cheer for Lan Yun. At first, he thought that this Lan Yun was quite popular in Huoyue City, but after learning the truth, Ji Fengtian felt that this Lan Yun was too good at pretending.
"I've seen it!" Ji Fengtian shook his head and laughed.
"By the way, Brother Ji, why didn't you build your little pet?" Yan Chihuo suddenly asked.
"Oh, when I came out in the morning, I didn't see it, so I came out on my own. Ji Fengtian said with a smile.
"Oh?" Seeing that Ji Fengtian didn't want to say more, Yan Chihuo didn't continue to ask, and the next conversation between the two was on anecdotes.
Back in his room, Ji Fengtian saw Xiao Bai at a glance, at this time, Xiao Bai was lying on the bed on all fours, his stomach bulging. Seeing Ji Fengtian coming in, Xiaobai didn't move.
"En?" Finding Xiaobai's abnormality, Ji Fengtian hurriedly stepped forward and touched Xiaobai's belly, which was soft and comfortable.
Just when Ji Fengtian wanted to touch what was inside Xiao Bai's belly, Xiao Bai Gu rolled to the end of the bed, and the person stood up, holding his stomach with two front paws.
"What did you do in the morning?" asked Ji Fengtian.
Xiaobai stretched out his paws and drew random strokes in the air, babbling while gesturing.
After a while, Ji Fengtian looked at Xiaobai with black lines, not knowing what to say.
It turned out that Ji Fengtian had been to the Treasure Pavilion once before, and Xiaobai was also present at that time. In the next few days, Xiao Bai went to the Treasure Pavilion when he was fine, and finally let it find the warehouse where the Treasure Pavilion stored the elixir.
After a few days of exploration and exploration, Xiaobai finally found a way to be unnoticed and successfully blended into the warehouse. Although Xiaobai is greedy, Xiaobai still has skills in doing things. It burrowed into the box containing the elixir, ate the herbs at the bottom first, and kept the top one so that no one would find it.
For such a long time, there was still no news from the Treasure Pavilion, and it seemed that it was useless to find out about the loss of medicinal materials.
Rolling his eyes, Ji Fengtian said angrily: "You eat alone by yourself, and you don't leave me a little." ”
At the beginning, Xiao Bai thought that Ji Fengtian would criticize it, but he didn't expect Ji Fengtian to say such things, which made Xiao Bai extremely excited.
Running in front of Ji Fengtian, Xiaobai opened his mouth and spit out a red round fruit.
Ji Fengtian picked up the red fruit in surprise, wiped the saliva on it, and looked at it carefully.
The red fruit was the size of a baby's fist, and it had strange red threads on its surface that intertwined to form a magical pattern.
"Yuan Lingguo!" Ji Fengtian said in shock.
Seeing Ji Fengtian calling out the name of the fruit, Xiao Bai nodded quickly, pushed the Yuan Spirit Fruit to Ji Fengtian, and motioned for Ji Fengtian to eat it.
Ji Fengtian did not hesitate, and directly threw the Yuan Spirit Fruit into his mouth.
After the Yuan Spirit Fruit entered Ji Fengtian's mouth, the red line on it quickly swam, and the Yuan Spirit Fruit continued to shrink as the red line swam, and finally turned into a red liquid and flowed into Ji Fengtian's body.
Although it may seem like a complicated process, time does complete in an instant.
When the Yuan Spirit Fruit entered his stomach, Ji Fengtian felt as if he had fallen into magma, the skin on his body began to turn red, and his whole person was like a boiled prawn. Holding his breath and concentrating, holding back the pain coming from his whole body, Ji Fengtian crossed his knees on the ground, running the Taiyi Chaos Sutra, digesting the blazing energy in his body.
Time passed bit by bit, and I knew that the next morning, the red color on the surface of Ji Fengtian's body gradually receded. Slowly opened his eyes, and he saw Xiaobai, who was looking up and forked, and there was a snoring sound from time to time.
Ji Fengtian clenched his fists, feeling that he had never been so fulfilled as he was now. After a night of tempering, his physical strength reached the realm of the eighth layer of the Qi Sea Realm.
Ji Fengtian clearly felt that with just the power of his physical body, he could kill a cultivator of the ninth layer of the Qi Sea Realm with one punch.
Just when Ji Fengtian was self-absorbed, Yan Chihuo's voice sounded outside the door.
Ji Fengtian hurriedly changed his clothes, opened the door, and walked towards the square with the hot red fire.
"Today's ranking adopts the method of guarding the ring, and those who keep to the end will advance to the next round, and the others will be eliminated. This time the defense is voluntary, and the next game begins!" Yan Yang still explained the rules simply, and landed on the seat on the side.
Ji Fengtian clearly saw that in the distance of the ring, several seats were placed, among which were Yang Xiao and Lihuo, and the remaining person Ji Fengtian did not know. It can be seen from the position where Yan Yang is sitting that this person's identity is not low, but this person is currying favor with Lihuo, and his identity is obviously not as good as Lihuo.
Judging by the appearance of this person, he is somewhat similar to Lan Yun, could it be someone from the Lan family? Ji Fengtian guessed.
As if feeling Ji Fengtian's gaze, the man glanced down and found that he was just a cultivator of the eighth layer of the Qi Sea Realm, and he didn't take it to heart, after all, most of the cultivation of these teenagers was around the seventh layer of the Qi Sea Realm.
The one hundred and thirty teenagers who participated in the competition, at this time, you look at me, I look at you, and there is no intention of moving. Because they all know that whoever comes to power will always lose.
Just when everyone was waiting and watching, a young man in blue walked out of the crowd, his toes lightly touched the ground, his body was like a feather, and he fell lightly towards the No. 1 ring.
"What a subtle move!" there was an exclamation from the crowd.
"Since you're not going, I'm coming!" a domineering voice sounded.
Ji Fengtian turned around to look, only to see a young man wearing animal skins and a black face walking out, stomping on the ground suddenly, and his body was like a leopard preying on prey, quickly rushing forward.
When he arrived at the No. 2 ring, the man turned over flexibly and landed firmly on the ring, shaking the ring for a while.
"Such a powerful force, this person is actually a physical cultivator!"
Next, many more people rushed towards the ring, Ji Fengtian took a cursory look and found that most of them were those who dominated the ring before.
"Brother Ji, aren't you going up?" Yan Chihuo asked as he looked at Ji Fengtian curiously.
"I'll wait a little longer!" Ji Fengtian said.
"In that case, I'll go up first. Yan Chihuo said with a smile, and then touched the ground on his toes, and his body was like a swift, quickly flashing on the No. 12 ring, leaving a trail of afterimages where he passed.
"I didn't expect Yan Chihuo to be so amazing, and this competition is expected to be a good show. Ji Fengtian thought.
Just when the young man below was about to start the war, Yan Chihuo, who was sitting in the seat above, looked at Ji Fengtian below, and said with a smile: "Haha, I haven't come out for a long time, since I'm here, why don't we gamble!"
Hearing Lihuo's words, Yang Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then turned his gaze to Ji Fengtian, thoughtful.
"I don't know what Lord Lihuo is going to bet on?" Yan Yang asked with a smile.
"Let's bet on who will be number one!" said Lihuo.
"This ......"
"What is the Lan family's idea?" asked Lihuo.
Hearing the words of Lihuo, Lan Yuanke suddenly felt that his head was big, this guy really brought it up, he couldn't bet, he didn't dare to ask for anything if he won, and he had to fall down if he lost.
"Hehe, Lord Lihuo's eyes are like torches, and I don't know who to press. Lan Yuanke said with a smile.
"You press your son, I'll press as you like!" said Lihuo casually.
"Lord Lihuo, the dog is not good at learning, and it may be difficult to win the first place. Although Lan Yuanke said this, he didn't think so in his heart, except for his son, other teenagers couldn't compare with him at all.
"It's boring!" Lihuo saw that Lan Yuanke wouldn't bet with himself, so he simply gave up.
At this time, thirteen people in the thirteen rings stood on it, looking at the people below, with a provocative look on their faces, and the game began!
