Chapter 225, the first examination
Zeng Shushu is open-minded by nature, but he likes the wonders of heaven and earth, and Zhang Xiaofan is honest and honest, although the two met for the first time, they chatted very quickly, and they became acquainted after a while.
Zeng Shushu looked at Xiao Ash enviously, and then turned back to Zhang Xiaofan and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, did you also come to Tongtian Peak to participate in the Seven Veins Martial Arts?" β
Zhang Xiaofan nodded and said, "What about you, Senior Brother Zeng?" β
Zeng Shushu said with a smile: "Me too, I won the thirty-third in the lottery yesterday, I don't know what number you are, don't be so coincidental, we are today's opponents?" β
Zhang Xiaofan also laughed and said, "I'm No. 1." β
Zeng Shushu was taken aback and said, "You are the disciple of Dazhu Peak yesterday?" β
Zhang Xiaofan's face turned red and nodded.
Zeng Shushu said with a smile: "You are so lucky," said in his heart, and then said: "We will not meet until the final battle, it seems that it is very difficult." β
Zhang Xiaofan said with a smile: "My little practice, the first hehe, the second round was immediately eliminated, where do you dare to be delusional." β
Zeng Shushu stuck out his tongue and said, "Then I'm afraid I won't even be able to pass the first round." β
The two of them looked at each other and laughed. At that moment, the two talked for a while, and Song Daren's shout came from afar: "Xiaofan, it's time to eat." β
Zhang Xiaofan answered from afar, said a few words to Zeng Shushu, and ran over, and then Rhubarb also followed with Xiao Ash on his back. Running to Song Daren, the two walked forward, Song Daren said, "Who were you talking to there just now?" β
Zhang Xiaofan said: "Oh. I just got acquainted with a senior brother of Feng Huifeng, and I heard him say that his name is Zeng Shushu. β
Song Daren seemed taken aback and said, "Zeng Shushu? β
Zhang Xiaofan was surprised: "What's the matter, senior brother?" β
Song Daren looked back at where he came from, and said, "That person is the only son of Uncle Chang Zeng, the first great-uncle of Fenghui Peak, and I heard that he is extremely talented. Erudite and strong, the cultivation is very deep, and it is one of the big favorites in this competition. β
Zhang Xiaofan was stunned and speechless for a while. Although he also had some understanding, he didn't expect Zeng Shushu to have such a "big" background! Ha... Zhang Xiaofan forgot that Mo Qianqian, whom he was familiar with on weekdays, was countless times older than this "book" senior brother~
But he said that after breakfast, all the disciples of Qingyunmen came to Yunhai Square and looked at it at a glance. The vast sea of people, shoulder to shoulder, popularity, can see the prosperity of Qingyunmen.
Today's competition does not have Zhang Xiaofan's task, and with a restrained temperament like him, I am afraid that he will not attract the attention of others until he really shows his skills - not to mention the disciples of other veins, even Song Daren and others from the same sect know that Xiaofan's cultivation is not bad, but in his heart, he also feels that his stupid junior brother has little chance of winning... I'm afraid of being there. Only Tian Buyi, who is unforgiving, and Mo Qianqian, who is smiling, are really optimistic about Zhang Xiaofan.
On that huge square, only during the time when everyone was eating. Eight large platforms have been erected, built with waist-thick giant trees, separated from each other by more than ten zhang, arranged in the direction of gossip. At this moment, there are already a sea of people in front of and behind the stage. Under the stage of the largest "Qian" seat in the middle, a tall red list of several people stood up, and the signatures and names of the disciples participating in the competition were written in gold-cut characters the size of a bowl. Zhang Xiaofan's name was very eye-catching in the first place, and the opponent's column was empty.
Zhang Xiaofan blushed and secretly glanced at the senior brothers around him, everyone else smiled, only the sixth senior brother Du Bishu complained to himself: "It's not fair, it's not fair." Nope."
"Shut up!" A soft drink came from the side, everyone was startled, and turned their heads to look, but it was Tian Buyi and Su Ru who walked over with Tian Ling'er. At that moment, the disciples of Dazhu Peak hurriedly saw it and said, "Master, Master!" β
Since Tian Buyi and his wife have arrived, the first seat of the other veins has basically arrived, so today's competition has officially begun, because it is only the first round, Zhang Xiaofan has not taken the stage, and the situation is decent, and there are no accidents.
Tian Ling'er's opponent today is a disciple of Chaoyang Peak, surnamed Shen Tiandou, who can be regarded as a hero, and even Shang Zhengliang, the first seat of Chaoyang Peak, also pinned hopes on him, standing under the stage and watching this competition, obviously very important to this Shen Tiandou. But unfortunately, his luck today is not good, Amber Zhu Aya is the magic weapon that Su Ru used when he was young, it is earthy, if you really want to talk about it, there are really not many magic weapons on Qingyun Mountain that can surpass this Zhu Aya.
In the end, it was Tian Ling'er who won the opponent with a trick of "binding the gods", and in this regard, it is indeed this little girl's cultivation that is better than the other party.
This battle also made Tian Buyi's old face quite bright, showing a complacent appearance, as if he had won the competition. Of course, Tian Ling'er's strength is indeed commendable among his peers, Li Na even Shang Zhengliang bluntly said that although Tian Ling'er is young, he has such a talent and qualification for Xiuzhen, which is really enviable.
At the same time, the other popular disciples of the various veins also won one after another, and only a few people were as unfortunate as Shen Tiandou, among which Qi Hao and Lin Jingyu performed even better, attracting the attention of several leaders. However, in today's competition, the most concerned about several leaders, and even Qingyun, is not Qi Hao, who has been famous for a long time, but another person...
It just so happened that Uncle Zeng's first round of competition had also ended, and he won the victory without much action because of his obvious advantage, thinking of the three-eyed spirit monkey in his heart, he soon came to Dazhufeng to find Zhang Xiaofan to play, but unfortunately Xiao Ash had already slipped away without a trace, which made him quite regretful.
However, he and Xiaofan did not have nothing to do, I saw him holding Zhang Xiaofan with one hand, while desperately squeezing towards the center of the test room, of course, along the way, it was indispensable to show off his well-informed information to Zhang Xiaofan
"Hehe, Xiao Fan, do you know that although Senior Brother Longshoufeng's cultivation is very famous, this time it is another person who attracts the most attention."
Zhang Xiaofan was stunned for a moment, Qi Hao's cultivation was clear to him, and the master often said that in addition to Xiao Yicai, he could be regarded as the first person of the younger generation of Qingyunmen... Could it be that there is any other senior brother whose cultivation can surpass Qi Hao?
He thought about it for a long time, but there was no answer. can only honestly say: "Little brother doesn't know..."
Zeng Shushu mysteriously refused to answer, but just pulled Xiaofan all the way to the crowded place, Zhang Xiaofan couldn't help himself, and he couldn't help but be a little curious about this so-called mysterious figure, so he followed.
When the two of them got closer, they only heard louder noises. All around was the jubilant discussion voices of Qingyun disciples.
"Xiaozhufeng has always been rich in beauties, and I heard that this time Lu Xueqi is known as the most outstanding beauty in five hundred years!"
"Then I still need you to say, I saw her in the Yuqing Palace that day, it was really a country and a city, who hit my head, uncle?"
A white-bearded old man said angrily beside him: "Little rabbit cub, you are a person who cultivates truth, you should be like water, why are you still so greedy for beauty?" If you get on stage. You can't just look at that face, and lose first without making a move! β
"Yes."
"Hmph, so I told the first senior brother a long time ago, we Qingyunmen shouldn't accept female apprentices."
"Ahem, Uncle Shi, your old man is really yes, uh, he is wise and wise, but is your voice too loud?"
"What's wrong. Am I wrong? The white-bearded old man blew his beard and glared, and his voice was a little higher.
"No, no, no." The young disciples hurriedly surrounded him, and after smiling faces, they whispered, "Senior Uncle, Master Shuiyue is sitting inside." β
Lowering his voice, the old man said, "Hmph, if it weren't for the same faΓ§ade." I've long since been"
All the disciples said yes together, and they all claimed that Mr. Song's cultivation was profound, broad-minded, and he did not care about the villain's juniors. Zeng Shushu and Zhang Xiaofan glanced at each other, Zeng Shushu shrugged his shoulders, but Zhang Xiaofan secretly screamed badly, and whispered to him: "Is the person you are talking about the senior sister of Xiaozhufeng?" β
Zeng Shushu nodded. glanced at the stage and said, "It's not started yet, you'll know her fame later." But, alas, there are too many people here~ Hey, hey, why are you still running out, junior brother? β
Zeng Shushu said that he was rising, but he ignored Xiao Fan's face... At this time, when he learned the inside story, where did Zhang Xiaofan dare not run?
Ay! What a magic star! Since he saw this woman for the first time in front of the Yuqing Palace yesterday, Zhang Xiaofan has been frightened, and it is usually too late to dodge, but he didn't expect to be dragged in front of Senior Brother Zeng today and sent to death by himself... Zhang Xiaofan had mixed feelings in his heart at the moment, and called him careless in making friends.
And what about Zeng Shushu? At the moment, he only has a beautiful senior sister in his eyes, where can he still take care of Xiaofan's feelings, just dragging his arm with one hand, and waving desperately to the stage with the other.
"Xiao Fan! If you see it, it's her. Zeng Shushu's eyebrows fluttered and he gestured to look at the woman in blue. I heard that Lu Xueqi has not been in the business for a long time, but she is a genius, and she has a beautiful appearance that captivates the country and the city, everyone says that if you decide the winner by appearance, the champion is definitely her! β
Is Lu Xueqi beautiful?
Of course it's beautiful!
Even Zhang Xiaofan doesn't deny this, but compared to her beauty, the heavy cold makes someone more taboo, she is a piece of ice when she changes into blue clothes today, which makes people dare not approach, where is the mood to appreciate the beauty at this moment... But Zhang Xiaofan looked at it, and saw that among the younger generation of Qingyun disciples around him, most of them were focused on Xiaozhufeng and the beauties, especially the woman in blue, Lu Xueqi, who was even more eye-catching.
It's a cult... How can so many people love such a woman...
But at this moment, Zhang Xiaofan couldn't leave even if he wanted to, the inside was already crowded with layers of Qingyun disciples, and he couldn't even insert a needle, and the people standing inside naturally couldn't come out.
I saw that Lu Xueqi was dressed in a whole body, her right hand gently held the magic trick, and a pair of bright and beautiful eyes looked at the stage. At this moment, the faint cloud that was originally at the white jade slab under her feet suddenly swirled and gathered at her from all directions, and soon, a white cloud formed at Lu Xueqi's feet, and then, I saw Lu Xueqi like a fairy, and the whole person slowly rose in this white cloud, floated into the air, and moved to the platform.
The mountain wind blew, the white clouds fluttered like the softest and most beautiful silk, Lu Xueqi's clothes fluttered, her complexion was like snow, and she was glamorous, like a fairy of the Nine Heavens falling into the mortal dust. When people love and pity in their hearts, there is still a little awe.
After a while, the audience applauded thunderously, the mountains shouted a tsunami, and the waves were so loud that Zhang Xiaofan was caught off guard. His ears immediately buzzed, and he was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect Lu Xueqi to be so popular, which made him even more incomprehensible.
And today, Lu Xueqi's opponent is a disciple of Long Shoufeng, named Fang Chao. This Senior Brother Fang has obviously been captured by Lu Xueqi's beauty. In addition, the cultivation of the two is indeed very different, so the Ice and Snow Goddess almost didn't have much effort to take down her opponent.
It stands to reason that this result cannot be said to be unexpected, but. Lu Xueqi's winning process still caused a lot of controversy. But it was said that this Lu Xueqi didn't even have the Tianya Divine Sword out of the sheath, a pair of bright eyes were as bright as stars, and her black hair and clothes were flying and fluttering in the wind, her style was peerless and moving. She seemed to be chanting a spell in a low voice, there was no expression on her cold face, and as she watched, everyone only saw a loud bang on the fairy sword that was flying in mid-air at this moment, emitting a thousand blue lights. Like a beast roaring wildly, the sound shook the wilderness. In an instant, the blue light was sheng, and the immortal sword burst out like a sky, a wild dragon came out of the abyss, and all the clouds within a radius of ten zhang were all forced to dissipate in an instant, without a trace.
I saw it in the midst of ten thousand blue lights, in the deepest part of the place, which was as blue as the blue sky of the sky. The fairy sword flew from the sky, shot at it, and rushed towards Fang Chao, the momentum was so fierce that it was unrivaled for a while.
Fang Chao's face was solemn. Sweat trickled down his forehead, obviously shocked by the great power of Lu Xueqi's blue fairy sword. I saw that in an instant, the fairy sword had rushed in front of me.
Everyone was shocked, not knowing what was going on, suddenly a change occurred, the silver-white fairy sword that had been stopping in front of Fang Chao from just now suddenly made a few muffled sounds on the sword body, and then, under the gaze of countless eyes, a crack suddenly appeared on the sword body, and then it expanded rapidly, and after a while, this fairy sword let out a painful sound, and it broke into two with a "bang" and fell onto the stage.
It must be known that this immortal magic weapon must first go through countless sacrifices before it can be used for its own use, everyone's immortal sword can be said to be the continuation of their own body, what does the immortal sword that has been cultivated for a long time mean to a person who cultivates the truth, there is no one who is not clear about this sea of clouds.
"Wow", on the stage, Fang Chao spurted out a mouthful of blood, touched his chest with his hand, his face showed pain, he couldn't support it anymore, and fell to the ground and fainted.
At this moment, the immortal sword collapsed, and even Fang Chao himself suffered a lot of trauma, which suddenly made the first pine of Longshou Peak extremely dissatisfied.
Several people from the dragon head peak immediately rushed into the ring, helped Fang Chao up, and saw the fairy sword broken in two on the ground, all of them were full of anger, glaring at Lu Xueqi, as if they were going to eat this beautiful woman.
Offstage, Cangsong Daoren clenched his fists and said coldly: "Senior Sister Shuiyue, your disciple should be really ruthless, obviously it's not enough to win, but you still have to rely on the magic weapon artifact to break other people's fairy swords, what is the reason?" β
Master Shuiyue looked indifferent, and said coldly: "Xueqi's cultivation is too shallow, and her Dao is not deep, so it is not a big deal if she can't control a divine object like 'Tianya'. β
Cangsong Daoren was angry, and he was about to have a seizure, and suddenly a hand was put on his shoulder, but Mo Qianqian came over and patted him on the shoulder. Cangsong Daoren looked at him, first panicked in his heart, and then even more hesitant, and the boiling anger naturally vented most of it, snorted heavily in his nose, and strode away - although he was unhappy in his heart at the moment, he was even more afraid of Mo Qianqian's bottom line, and he didn't dare to make a mistake.
The sword elder looked at the tall back of Cangsong Daoren, shook his head, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart - in fact, if it weren't for the public case of Wan Jianyi back then, this Cangsong might not be a good teacher. Although he strongly supported Lu Xueqi this time, it was only because the Tianya Divine Sword was originally owned by Zangfengzhai back then, but Xiaobai was happy to see Hunting for a while and handed it over to Lu Xueqi.
Mo Qianqian turned his head and was about to speak, but saw that Master Shuiyue actually walked away. At this time, Lu Xueqi had already stepped down from the stage and came to Shui Yue, who looked at her, a smile on her face, and nodded. Lu Xueqi didn't speak, gave a slight salute, then stood behind Shui Yue, and glanced at Zhang Xiaofan coldly - that look was not fierce, but it was extremely bone-chilling...
Zhang Xiaofan stood aside, and finally came back to his senses from the thrilling battle just now, watching Shui Yue and Lu Xueqi, the pair of masters and apprentices, drift apart, and suddenly found that these two people were so similar, as cold as ice, as if carved out of a mold.
It's just that... God is pitiful, how did this polar ice-like character make him hold a grudge?
Xiao Fan was distressed. Suddenly, Zeng Shushu beside him sighed and said, "I didn't expect that such a divine object as Tianya was also born!" β
Zhang Xiaofan was inexplicable and said, "What is Tianya?" But he was stunned for a moment, apparently remembering the unsheathed Excalibur as well.
At this time, the onlookers of Qingyun disciples gradually dispersed, Zeng Shushu said hello to the disciples who returned to the peak of the same door, and walked away with Zhang Xiaofan. He said, "Tianya is the fairy sword you saw Lu Xueqi use just now." I have read in the "Ten Chapters of Strange Treasures" before, Tianya first appeared in the hands of a scattered immortal withered heart master thousands of years ago, and legend has it that this magic weapon was the Nine Heavens of Strange Iron fell into the mortal world, and the withered heart master accidentally obtained it in the Arctic ice field and cultivated it. Back then, in the decisive battle between the righteous demons, the righteous path was naturally headed by our Qingyunmen Qingye Patriarch, but this withered master was also very famous, especially when he used this Tianya Divine Sword to fight fiercely with the black-hearted old man of the Demon Sect for three days and three nights. In the end, the black-hearted old man was hit hard, and I got rid of a big trouble for my righteous path. It is said that at that time, only this Tianya Divine Sword could restrain the most ferocious thing of the Demon Sect to devour the blood beads, and since then, the name of 'Tianya' has resounded in the world and has become a coveted artifact magic weapon in the hearts of cultivators. However, I heard that after the Venerable Master sat down, Tianya disappeared this day, and he didn't expect to fall into the hands of Xiao Zhufeng. β
Speaking of this, Zeng Shushu shook his head and said, "Senior Brother Xiaofan." Then Lu Xueqi has such a divine object, but I am afraid that there is no hope for us in this big test. β
Zhang Xiaofan was not disappointed. Anyway, he never thought that he could do anything, but he just looked at Zeng Shushu's rather disappointed appearance, and asked strangely, "Hey, Senior Brother Zeng, didn't you tell me that you are not very interested in this big test." Why do you look disappointed? β
Zeng Shushu's face turned red and said, "But if you can really stand on the stage and hold on to the end, it will be very majestic, don't you think?" β
Zhang Xiaofan smiled dumbly.
Zeng Shushu looked at him strangely, and he was a little embarrassed in his heart. punched him and laughed, "What are you laughing at?" Before he finished speaking, he laughed too.
The two smiled and walked to the other ring to watch the other competition.
On this day, in addition to Zhang Xiaofan, among the seven disciples of Dazhufeng, four wins and three defeats, Song Daren, Tian Ling'er, He Dazhi and Du Bishu all entered the next round, plus Zhang Xiaofan, who was lucky, five of the eight disciples of Dazhufeng were promoted, which was a rare good result in hundreds of years, and only Tian Buyi was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut.
After the competition was over, the disciples returned to their residences. Tian Buyi encouraged several of his disciples, asking them to guard against arrogance and rashness and continue to work hard tomorrow, and the disciples who failed in the competition were not scolded, but were just admonished by the teacher. Among the crowd, I am afraid that only Zhang Xiaofan, who had a bye in the first round, was special, Tian Buyi "taught a hard lesson" to the little junior brother, and warned him that he must work hard tomorrow and not embarrass Dazhufeng.
Zhang Xiaofan, who was really thoughtful, naturally nodded yes with sincere fear. I saw that the other senior brothers shook their heads for a while... So far, who can't see that the master has high hopes for Xiaofan? But he just didn't understand that although Tian Buyi was unforgiving, he also had high expectations for him this time.
In fact, Xiao Fan is not really stupid to this point, but he didn't see Mo Qianqi's whereabouts all day, and he was panicked by the cold Lu Xueqi, so he didn't care.
β¦
Day 2.
The morning sun was lazily sprinkled on the sea of clouds, and the disciples of Qingyunmen came to the square as they had done the day before, and continued to watch the Qingyunmen Seven Veins Martial Arts Test.
The people of Dazhufeng stood under the red list yesterday, only to see that half of the names of the people on the red list were removed, and next to Zhang Xiaofan's name, his opponent today - Chu Yuhong was also written.
Since getting up in the morning, Zhang Xiaofan has been nervous for some reason, although he knows that most of him is here to see, but his heart is involuntarily nervous, his heart is racing, his mouth is dry, and he has no appetite even after only two bites of breakfast.
The seven-vein martial arts that belonged to him were finally about to kick off. (To be continued......)
