Chi Huo was always full of curiosity about new things, so much so that he didn't even sleep that night and studied the formation all night.

However, after all, his entry time is too short, and he can only arrange the lowest-level phantom array, which is simply to cover up a thing, but although it is the lowest-level, it is also difficult to practice, first of all, it is at the mercy of the array and the feet, which is not something that can be arranged casually.

For example, he used peanuts to cover up the balls before, and these peanuts were injected into him with Xuan Qi, and the use of Xuan Qi's mutual communication will have an effect, anyway, the formation eyes used in this lowest-level formation don't need to be too advanced.

Before, Ghost Huarong sprinkled the black stones that were scattered from the battle against him, producing large patches of smoke, and those black stones were specially refined formation eyes.

And the formation cultivation has reached the top, and the refined array eyes can be said to be able to scatter beans into soldiers, Chi Huo felt excited when he thought about it, if he could practice to that realm, he would casually scatter a bunch of formation eyes and make an army of tens of millions, and the enemy would not be frightened.

In this way, Chi Huo is in Tancheng, either he goes to the Xuanshi Society to learn some alchemy knowledge, or he stays at home to study the formation, or cultivates the Xuanqi Xuanli, in short, the whole person is very busy.

Four or five days passed in a hurry, and this morning, Li Longzhong and Li Xiaoyun came to his room: "Xiao Chichi, let's go!"

Chi Huo was wearing a brand-new brocade robe, his hair was neatly combed, and with his small pink face, he really looked like a miniature version of a handsome boy.

Today is the first day of the competition of the 18 major families in Tancheng, and the venue is in the square in the center of Tancheng.

The periphery of the square is built one by one small private rooms, the position in the center is the most luxurious, a burly, tiger-eyed middle-aged man sits on the main seat, this person is the city lord of Tancheng, Hu Biwu, I heard that this Hu Biwu was originally a great general of the Great Xia Kingdom, holding the military power, but two years ago after a battle, he was injured, so he was robbed of the military power by the emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom, and arranged to be the city lord of Tancheng.

The right side of the box of the City Lord's Mansion is also a box with a large area, and this box is the second largest force in Tancheng, the box of the Xuanshi Society.

And the remaining boxes are the seats of the eighteen families and the rich gentry of Tancheng.

The Li family's seat was almost at the back, but Chi Huo didn't care, he made his butt on the chair, touched the melons and fruits on the table and ate them.

Master Sun stood in the ring, holding his small notebook, and pulled his throat: "This year's ranking competition of the eighteen major families in Tancheng starts today, but unlike previous years, in order to increase the gold content of the competition, this year the point system is used for scoring." ”

Li Longzhong and Li Xiaoyun glanced at each other, neither of them seemed to know this rule, Chi Huo asked, "Third Uncle, is this different from before?"

"The previous competition was very simple, the first round of the first round of the ring between two and two families, the losing family was brushed down, without any resources, and those who advanced can continue to participate in the competition, even if they lose, they can get some benefits, because although Tancheng is the border area of the Great Xia Kingdom, there are still a lot of resources, whether these are good or bad, just enough for the remaining nine families. ”

After Li Xiaoyun explained, Chi Huo also heard Master Sun shouting: "Each family will send two personnel to the first round of the ring match, and the winner will get ten points, and no points will be deducted if they fail." ”

Li Longzhong frowned, this is not good news, according to the usual competition, each family will send one person to participate in the battle in the first round, so this time only Li Xiaoyun was brought here, and Chi Huo was completely let him come to see the world, is it difficult to ask him to go up this old bone, isn't this to make others laugh off their big teeth.

"The way to participate in the second round of the competition is different from previous years, this time it is to go to Wutong Mountain to collect Xuancao, regardless of the number of people, how many people in the family can go to collect Xuancao, a nine-grade Xuancao counts one point, eight-grade Xuancao counts ten points, and seven-grade records twenty points......"

"Dad, I don't think it's necessary for us to participate, you and they obviously got the news in advance, a large family is here, so many people, we are here just me and Xiao Chichi......" Li Xiaoyun said a little discouraged.

But hearing this competition rule, Chi Huo's eyes smiled like a small crescent, what a joke compared to collecting Xuancao, believe it or not, now he can tie Shaoyang grass into bundles like leeks.

"Third uncle, I don't think this is anything, there are a lot of them, but we also have a magic weapon to win!"

"Xiao Chichi, what can you do, look at the Liu family, there are more than a dozen of them at once, our two fists are hard to beat with four hands!" Li Xiaoyun asked with hope.

Chi Huo pointed to the balls and rice balls: "These two little guys have smart noses, I can't say that we have collected a lot of top-quality Xuancao......

"The rest is the last round, as usual, it is alchemy and alchemy, the people of the major families use the Xuancao you collected to refine, and we will evaluate the refined elixir or medicinal liquid, plus three points for the ninth grade, and ......ten points for the eighth grade" Master Sun seemed to be very patient and explained the rules of the competition.

And Chi Huo felt that someone was staring at him at this time, turned his head over, and found that a young man in the box opposite was looking at him with a vicious gaze, this guy was none other than Pang Guang.

What makes Chi Huo curious is that this Pang family doesn't mean that in addition to Pang Wanfeng, there is only one son, Pang Guang, but there are six or seven men sitting in the shed opposite, the older ones are sixty or seventy years old, and the younger ones are also in their thirties, and these people are full of gangsterism, and they are not good people at first glance.

"Grandpa, isn't there only one man in this Pang family, Pang Guang, can you find a helper?" Chi Huo asked puzzled.

"Of course you can't find a helper, once you find out, you will be directly disqualified from the competition, these people are not Pang Guang's brothers, they are all his brothers-in-law or brothers-in-law, speaking of which Pang Wanfeng's old husband gave birth to a lot of daughters, just such an only son, but this kid is also ruthless enough, since I knew that this kid and the Black Wind Gang had collusion, I investigated, he married his sisters and sisters to the Black Wind Gang as concubines, these people are naturally the Pang family. ”

Chi Huo was almost choked out of a mouthful of old blood by Li Longzhong's words, this Pang Guang is really ruthless enough, and his sisters and sisters don't let go.
