Chapter 0333: Silver Coin Challenge
There, there is no human wall, however, the existence of a Dao realm powerhouse is more useful than any human wall.
The middle-aged man with the pattern of the Formation Association on his clothes stood still, but there was an invisible power emanating from his body, opening up a path in the noisy crowd.
A young man with dark blue hair and eyes walked towards the gate of the Formation Association under the escort of this Dao Realm powerhouse.
The reporters obviously didn't expect to be able to break through the blockade of the Dao Realm powerhouse, but did their best to land the camera on this young man in the best position.
There are also reporters who have quickly found the information of this young man, and quickly broadcast it in a slightly excited tone.
Through this fast and precise broadcast, Ban Ming immediately knew that this blue-haired young man, from a civilization called "Fenhuang Star", has become famous in recent years, and can be said to be the most potential formation star on that planet.
Ban Ming looked at all this dumbly, he didn't expect that this time the registered disciple assessment would have such a big momentum and a high degree of attention.
But it's not surprising to think about it, in order to receive the best registered disciples for Shu Xue, Durag will naturally hype and hype it up, making it known to everyone.
But in this way, as the chief examiner, once his identity is revealed, it will really be a troublesome matter.
If he had known that this was the case, he would have thought more carefully, but at this point, he couldn't really let Durag's pigeons go.
With robes and masks that can hide your aura, as long as you are careful, it shouldn't be much of a problem.
Ban Ming was pondering whether to call Dulag and find a more low-key way to enter the Formation Association building, when he was suddenly slightly stunned.
Because he saw an acquaintance.
"Ah, the Earth from the solar system that appears now is a top student of Mingxue Jingyuan, Ximantuo!" The sharp-eyed reporter immediately said quickly.
The appearance of Ximantuo immediately set off a small climax on the scene.
First of all, she is an earthling, and this is the home of the earth, which will naturally cause the collective excitement of many earthlings who come to see the excitement.
Secondly, she is a beauty, she has inherited the excellent bloodline of the Xi family, even in this era when there are many beauties like dogs, she will still make people shine, and that kind of cold and calm with a noble temperament makes her stand out.
What's more, today's Ximantuo seems to have been carefully dressed, making her look more bright and beautiful than usual.
As for her identity as the granddaughter of the head of the Xi family, few people know about it, so it didn't cause a sensation.
And her gaze wandered seemingly randomly, as if looking for something.
In the crowd, Ban Ming instinctively shrunk his neck and hid behind a strong man, avoiding Xi Mantuo's gaze.
Immediately, he ducked behind and asked Durag to call.
It was immediately connected over there, and after Dulag's image appeared, he opened his mouth and said, "It was my mistake, I forgot to say the matter of answering, where are you now, I will send someone to pick you up." ”
Ban Ming looked around and described where he was.
"Okay, you stand there and don't move, the answer will be there soon. ”
After the end of the call, as Durag said, within two minutes, a man who looked inconspicuous but was wearing clothes with the logo of the Formation Association walked up to Ban Ming and said, "I am here on the order of Master Du, please come with me, sir." ”
Ban Ming bowed his head, followed behind this man, and actually returned to the teleportation array again.
The man set the coordinates and nodded to Ban Ming to stand in.
Immediately, the light flashed, and Ban Ming disappeared into the teleportation array.
The next moment, Ban Ming appeared in a small teleportation array, which was a room.
Click.
The door opened, and Durag appeared at the door, with an apologetic face, and said, "I'm sorry, it was my negligence, but fortunately you arrived in time." ”
He was indeed a little annoyed, he only thought about reporting to the master yesterday, so he forgot about it, if for this reason, today's assessment lacks an examiner, then this oolong can be exaggerated.
"It doesn't matter. Ban Ming didn't think much of it, and walked out of the room with Durag, discovering that the teleportation array was actually part of Dulag's office.
In this way, it saves a lot of work.
Ban Ming immediately took out the robe and mask in his backpack, put on the one-piece robe, even his hands were tightly wrapped in one-piece gloves, and then put the mask on his face, and the mask suddenly had a natural absorption, so that it would not fall.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Ban Ming was quite satisfied, under this disguise, no one could guess his gender, age or even identity.
Durag attached a magnetic metal armband to Ban Ming's arm with the words "Examiner" in red.
"By the way, your voice will change when you speak, so you don't have to worry about someone recognizing you by your voice. Durag added.
Ban Ming tried to speak out and found that this was indeed the case.
"After the assessment is over, you will pass through this teleportation array in my office and return directly to the First Military Academy, without arousing any suspicion. Durag said.
But there was one thing he didn't say, and that was to wait until Master met you!
Ban Ming, who didn't know what he was really going to face next, only felt that Dulag's arrangement was very thorough at this time, and he finally completely relieved himself.
Durag looked at the time and said, "The assessment is about to start in half an hour, so I'll take you next-"
Before he could finish speaking, a cacophony came from outside, causing Durag to frown.
"I'm sorry, Master Du is meeting with important guests and can't see you for the time being. ”
"No, I'm going to see Master Du now!"
A voice behind him didn't sound very old, and there was a lot of anxiety in his voice, and Ban Ming couldn't help but look at Durag.
Durag's lips moved slightly, and he said, "This person's name is Hugh Lian, and he is the personal disciple of the Grandmaster I chose before......"
Saying that, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly, and said lightly, "Let him in." ”
Click, the office door opened, and a well-dressed and handsome young man walked in quickly, and when he saw the two people in the office, especially after seeing Ban Ming, who was shrouded in a robe that blocked the breath, his pupils contracted slightly, and he immediately bowed respectfully to Dulag, and said, "Master Du." ”
Ban Ming observed this young man, and at a glance saw that this person was not a human in the solar system, he was around thirty years old, and he was already a high-grade cultivator in the heavenly realm, and he could be called a dragon and phoenix among people.
"Hugh Lian, the assessment is about to start soon, are you in such a hurry to find me, is there something wrong?" Durag looked at Hugh Lian calmly, and naturally there was a kind of majesty revealed.
Hugh Lian said without humility or arrogance: "Master Du, I heard that because the family master had an accident doing the formation test, you found another person of unknown origin to replace the family teacher, and the younger generation felt inappropriate for daring." ”
When Durag heard this, his expression did not change much, and he said: "I am also very sorry that the Lingshi has an accident at such a time, but since the Array Ancestor has entrusted me with full authority to handle the selection of registered disciples, I will naturally not be perfunctory, if I really can't find a replacement for the Lingshi, I may have to personally invigilate the exam." As for the origin of what you said, I don't know ...... In my eyes, fame is the most virtual thing, and only strength is everything. ”
When Ban Ming heard this, he couldn't help but want to complain, the last time they met, Durag directly said that he wanted to avoid suspicion, and categorically denied the possibility of being the chief examiner.
Hearing this, Xiu Lian's face tightened slightly, raised his head, and his gaze fell fixedly on the mask on Ban Ming's face, as if he wanted to see the face under the mask clearly.
Taking a deep breath, Xiu Lian's eyes flowed, but his tone became more and more respectful: "The juniors are courageous, and I implore Master Du to give the juniors the opportunity to challenge this master, and the juniors are willing to recommend themselves and preside over this assessment instead of the master!"
Ban Ming couldn't help but be dumbfounded when he heard this, is this a lying gun? However, although this young man's courage is commendable, he has not figured out the situation.
What really made Durag feel embarrassed was not where to find a formation master, but the need for this formation master to be fair and just.
If Hugh Lian could be used to replace his master, Durag must have considered it a long time ago, and since he didn't think about it, there must be a reason for this.
"No more talk. Dulag's eyes and voice were cold, and he said, "Who is qualified to be the chief examiner, I have my own sense of proportion, step down." ”
Hugh Lian's face changed abruptly, and he expected that even if Durag refused his request, he would appreciate his courage to some extent, and he should not have spoken so fiercely.
His eyes couldn't help but glance at the masked man with some reluctance, and noticed that the latter's gaze was as flat as water, as if he was mocking......
If Ban Ming knew what he was thinking, he would definitely be crying out for wrongdoing, he really appreciated his courage in his heart, where was there a hint of ridicule in his eyes?
After a moment of fierce inner struggle, Hugh Lian gritted his teeth, took out a silver coin with a simple shape from his pocket, and took a deep breath: "In this case, the junior requests to launch a 'silver coin challenge' against this master to confirm whether this master is qualified to replace the family teacher!"
Durag's face sank suddenly.
And under the mask, Ban Ming's face was also slightly stunned.
During this time, he also learned about the Formation Association, and knew that only members of the Formation Association who had made outstanding contributions in the field of formation were eligible to receive this kind of silver coin with a strange shape.
And the greatest value of this kind of silver coin, in addition to the honor it represents, has a purpose, that is, it can launch a "silver coin challenge" to any person in the formation association that the other party cannot refuse, and the two sides will face off through the formation, and then divide the superior.
Moreover, another feature of this kind of duel is that it is carried out instantly, that is, the challenged person is not given any chance to prepare, and the challenge is carried out immediately.
Under normal circumstances, the owner of the silver coin would be cautious and use it on the body of a respected formation master, saying that it is a challenge, but in fact, it is asking for guidance!
If there is a chance, many people are actually willing to use this kind of silver coin on the body of Array Ancestor Shuxue.
And this tradition, within the Formation Association, can be regarded as a way to strengthen exchanges in disguise, encourage and promote younger generations.
Of course, if there is really a deep hatred between each other, if you challenge the enemy in this way and win, you will naturally be able to make the latter's reputation plummet and achieve the purpose of revenge.
And now, Hugh Lian actually proposed a "silver coin challenge" to himself, which made Ban Ming stunned and couldn't laugh again.
Durag's face, after an initial ugliness, quickly became a little strange.
"Please advise this master!" Hugh Lian stared at Ban Ming with burning eyes, and shot the silver coin in his hand at the latter.
Ban Ming flicked his fingers, and a strong wind bounced the silver coin back.
Hugh Lian stretched out his hand to grab it, his face undisguised with mockery, and said, "Don't you dare to accept my challenge?
Durag coughed lightly at this time, and explained for Ban Ming: "The reason why he refused to challenge is very simple, because he is not a member of the Formation Association, so the rules of the 'Silver Coin Challenge' cannot be applied to him. ”
The mocking look on Hugh Lian's face suddenly stiffened as if it had been instantly frozen by a low temperature of dozens of degrees below zero.
Then, he turned to Dulag with a stiff neck, and a look of disbelief appeared in his eyes, and he said word by word: "Master Du, you mean, you found someone who is not even a member of the Formation Association to replace the family master?"
"That's right. Durag nodded definitively.
Hugh Lian's face suddenly turned red, white and red, and his chest rose and fell even more, and he seemed to be very uncomfortable.
Ban Ming can understand Xiu Lian's grievances and anger at the moment, the purpose of this little fresh meat at this time is nothing more than two.
Thinking in the direction of justice, he is here to cry out for his beloved Master.
If he speculated maliciously, Hugh Lian wanted to take this opportunity to prove himself in front of Durag, replace the master as the chief examiner, and then reveal his identity after the assessment, and at that time, he would naturally receive fame and fortune.
To this end, he did not hesitate to take out the precious honorary silver coins and launched the "Silver Coin Challenge".
It can be said that until the moment of launching the "Silver Coin Challenge", everything may still be in Hugh's expectations.
However, Hugh Lian never dreamed that the person Durag had found to replace his master was not even a member of the Formation Association.
You must know that the Formation Association is a place for all formation learners to communicate and learn, not to mention 100%, at least 90% of the formation masters are members of the Formation Association.
Even, since ten years ago, students from major colleges and universities, as long as they graduate from school, will automatically become members of the Formation Association!
Only in rare cases, such as because of dropping out of school or an individual's voluntary refusal to join the Formation Association, will be missed.
And among such people, there are very few formation masters.
