Chapter 24: Can't Get Out of Here (Part 2)

The sudden competition meeting of the six Xuanzong Halls this time set off an unprecedented upsurge in the Lancheng Xuanzong Academy, because this was not an ordinary competition, and when the final rules came out, the rumor that the so-called top ten had the opportunity to enter the Xuanzong Hall was shattered.

There is no quota limit, as long as they can meet the requirements, any student can enter the Xuanzong Palace, even if they only have the strength of a middle-level master.

It is precisely because of this that those students who were originally lacking in Xuan Qi and not high in strength saw the dawn in the dark, and it spread to all corners of Lancheng in less than half an hour after the final rules were released, and the students who learned the news were all excited to flock to the hall of the six series, and after a while, the hall of the six departments that set up the registration point was crowded with people inside and out, and the rules that were not allowed to make noise in the past seemed to have become an ornament at this moment, and it was boiling.

"The competition will be held on the first day of the next month, first of all, it will be gathered in the academy square, and then the Xuanzong Hall will send someone to verify the list, and then the students who have signed up will enter the Misty Continent, the first location of the competition is in the black fog area of the Misty Continent, then the second location is in the ice and snow area, and then the third location is in the grass mountain, each place has to experience two different ways of fighting, first the first step is the body fight, the second step is the Xuan Dou, the meaning of the body fight is to only compete in physical endurance, and the Xuan Dou is a competition between the Xuan, and the forbidden code can be used。 ”

Sun Lao explained the rules of the competition as he walked out, then looked at Zhu Zicheng and Long Chen, and asked casually, "You also want to sign up for the competition?"

Long Chen nodded, he naturally wanted to participate, especially the place of the competition was still in the Misty Continent, this was undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for him to enter the Insect Sect Hall in advance, among Ye Ruxue's three conditions, the first was to enter the Insect Sect Hall and be promoted to a first-class sect member, if you wait until next year's routine selection, then it is estimated that the promotion of a first-class sect member will have to wait until the next year, Dai Li has been in the Insect Sect Hall for ten years and is only a third-class sect member, but it is not an easy thing to be promoted to a first-class sect member.

But Zhu Zicheng replied cynically: "Why don't you participate? ”

Sun Lao turned around and led Long Chen and Zhu Zicheng to the registration point of the competition without saying a word, and after another forced queue registration, Sun Lao looked at Long Chen and Zhu Zicheng, and said inexplicably: "With the qualifications of the two of you, it is not practical to participate in this competition, if you are determined to participate, then everything is good for yourself." ”

After speaking, Sun Lao turned around and left, Long Chen looked at Sun Lao's back and carefully tasted the meaning of the sentence just now, it was obvious that Sun Lao had something to say, and he didn't approve of himself and Zhu Zicheng participating in the competition, but after thinking about it, I couldn't figure out why Sun Lao said this, the competition conference was held by the six Xuanzong Palaces, even if the competition location was in the Misty Continent, the environment was indeed much worse, but with the people of the Xuanzong Palace taking care of it, it was impossible for something too dangerous to happen, right?

Zhu Zicheng on the side couldn't help muttering: "This old man is really strange, isn't he just participating in a competition? ”

After wasting a lot of effort to squeeze out of the hall full of people, Long Chen, who was standing at the corner of the steps, looked at the dense flow of people in the main hall and gasped, just outside the main hall of the Worm Xuan Department, there are now no less than 10,000 people, and the six departments of the entire Lancheng Xuan Academy add up to probably 60,000 or 70,000 people! Together with the Xuan Academy of Dayu and Nanluo Kingdom, it is estimated that there will be 200,000 people, so many people participate, you can imagine what kind of grand scene it will be when you enter the Misty Continent on the first day of next month.

Long Chen couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "No wonder I chose the Misty Continent, I'm afraid that apart from the Misty Continent, there is no place that is isolated from the world and suitable for so many people to compete together." ”

Zhu Zicheng, who was standing behind Long Chen, also sighed: "I don't know what the Xuanzong Hall thinks, there is no limit to the number of places, such a way, it will basically empty all the people of the three major Xuanzong Academies, is it possible that the Xuanzong Hall has been short of people recently? If there is any accident, it will be terrible, it is estimated that the six major Xuanzong Halls will not want to have new people join in ten years." ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Zicheng stepped forward and asked, "By the way, Long Chen, what are you going to do in the next month?"

Long Chen thought for a moment and said, "I haven't decided yet, but it may be that I am trying to find a way to improve the ability on the original page of the forbidden canon." ”

Regarding the more private matters in this regard, Zhu Zicheng didn't ask any more questions, just like he didn't ask Long Chen why he could increase the amount of a hundred levels of Xuan Qi in a month, because Long Chen didn't ask him either, there are some things, as long as he is a Xuan person, he knows very well what to ask and what not to ask.

When the two walked out of the Xuan Academy, Zhu Zicheng suddenly grabbed Long Chen, scooped his head, and said apologetically: "Long Chen, I can't tell you the truth about the incident in the alley last month, I lied to you before, and I had no choice but to lie to you, because some people in the academy have been staring at me, and you know less about this matter, which is also a good thing for you, and when I figure things out, I will definitely explain it to you." ”

Long Chen didn't put that incident aside because of Zhu Zicheng's words, but said bluntly: "I don't want to ask more about other things, everyone has their own secrets, I just want to know one thing, whether that person is dead." ”

Zhu Zicheng confessed: "If he is dead, he will not die, and I will not have a chance to stand here and talk to you." ”

"I know that's enough. ”

Long Chen smiled faintly and said seriously: "If you need my help, just tell me, within the scope of my ability, I will help you." ”

Zhu Zicheng was silent for a while, and finally replied: "If there is such a day, I will." ”

After saying these words, Long Chen and Zhu Zicheng said goodbye to each other and parted ways, there is still a month before the competition, so Long Chen is ready to take advantage of this time to improve the green winding of the plant system as much as possible, and it is necessary to seriously consider what ability is most suitable for the remaining two blank original pages that are currently open in the forbidden canon.

It's just that, at this stage, it seems that Long Chen can only use one of the remaining two blank original pages first, because the other one needs to be reserved for ingestions above the fourth order.

As for the seventh original page that has reached the beginning of the monarch level, Long Chen is not ready to use it for the time being, Ye Ruxue once said that a smart mystic will never absorb all the original pages opened in the forbidden canon, and leaving a blank original page is equivalent to having infinite possibilities.

And at this moment, in the top hall of one of the six towering spires of the Lancheng Xuan Academy, six people wearing the golden silk large-sleeved robes of the Xuanzong Palace's inspectors, but wearing strange masks on their faces, sat quietly on the white jade chairs, like six statues, and the air was not only filled with depression, but also a strong smell of blood.

In the middle of the hall, an old man's corpse with a hole in his chest, his limbs cut off in unison, and an angry face was facing down, sticking to the ground, extremely desolate, next to this corpse, two meters away, another thin old man looked at the corpse on the ground with a complicated face, the corners of his eyes trembled slightly, and finally closed his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Presumably, if I don't become the new dean of this Xuan Academy, I won't be able to get out of here?"
