After listening to the so-called secret with his ears sideways, Lu Beichen couldn't suppress his excitement and said, "This is a big deal. But if it's a secret, why would you know?"

Naturally, there is no other meaning in saying this, just simple doubts.

Shang Lu naturally didn't think much about it, and said with a little arrogance, "Don't look at who I am." ”

The saint is not small, but the vast majority of people know the youngest son of the merchant. Just like Lu Beichen has always believed, it is definitely not easy for the Shang clan bloodline to achieve the family business with the advantage of pills in the cultivation world.

This is not only reflected in business and wealth, but also in many more, such as news.

This is true of Guangzhilou, and so is Shang's Baicao Building.

Looking at Lu Beichen's interested, Shang Lu couldn't help but feel a little proud. In fact, he never likes to show off his family background, after all, those deliberate actions will make him look too much, but for some reason, he always wants to show off twice in front of Lu Beichen.

Maybe it's because when he first met, he always felt that Lu Beichen was a little proud.

The cosmic law of attraction is really magical, allowing a proud self to meet an even more proud teenager. But precisely because of this, in front of that proud and confident face, he especially needed a kind of energy nourishment.

Today, his pride has finally been nourished.

Lu Beichen looked at the joy between his eyebrows, a little strange, and asked with a smile, "What are you in a daze?"

Shang Lu came back to his senses from the nourishment and said with a smile, "I won't tell you." Remember not to say what you said today, this is the most important thing in the Holy Capital in the past few years. As for the route or something, naturally it has not yet been decided. The Holy Capital has been preparing for many years, and this national examination is of great significance, so there must be many disciples who come to participate in the competition this year, and there must be many foreign disciples. ”

"Foreign disciple?" Lu Beichen was a little puzzled.

"The Holy Capital National Examination is an extremely perfect examination system in this world, not only the human race, but also the spirit race and the demon race actually participate in secret. It's just that the Holy Emperor never promised that the foreign races were eligible to participate in the test, but he also did not issue a ban, so the vast majority of foreign races came to participate in the test by hiding their identities. Shang Lu continued to answer earnestly.

"Why?" Lu Beichen asked.

Shang Lu looked at his puzzled expression, and of course understood why he was asking something, so he said more seriously, "The reason why I didn't issue a ban is because of the relationship between the Spirit Clan." and did not promise, because of the relationship between the demon clan. ”

Lu Beichen nodded, and suddenly understood a lot in his heart. The Spirit Race is an ally of the Terran Race, but the relationship between the Demon Race and the Terran Race in recent years is extremely delicate, so that the Terran Dynasty and the Demon Tribe never do anything explicitly, but they do a lot of each other behind the scenes.

In this way, if it is clearly said that the Spirit Clan is welcome to participate, then the thin film of the delicate relationship between the two demon clans will be completely pierced, and there will be no benefit to both parties at that time. But if it is said that foreign races are to be allowed to participate, the attitude of the Holy Capital must be: impossible.

Who would be stupid enough to help a race with unknown friends and foes to cultivate talents? Especially when this question is put between two races, between the Terran dynasty and the demon tribe, the answer is even more obvious.

There are many things in this world, and it's better to be confused. The Terran Dynasty does not promise or refuse, so it is naturally the most suitable choice.

"It's wise, too. Lu Beichen nodded slightly and said.

"What do you say?" Shang Lu Zhengse said, "In this way, there will be fewer places for the Terran to enter the national list." I have always felt that this attitude is just a pretense, and the Holy Emperor just wants to maintain a superficial harmony. ”

Lu Beichen smiled, he didn't plan to give out all his thoughts, but looking at Shang Lu's serious expression, he wanted to share some opinions.

"Of course they're going to take the place in the national charts. However, the participation of foreign races can actually make the disciples of the human race see the abilities of foreign races to a certain extent, and they will naturally generate pressure, and then they will have motivation. ”

"When you know that there are mountains outside the mountains and people outside of people, there is more spontaneous motivation than you think. I believe that the meaning of the national examination is also to compete, and the purpose of the competition is to make the teenagers have such pressure. ”

"The purpose of the national examination is not only to discover talents, but also to produce more talents. And if, as you said, there is a huge secret project this year, you should actually take this opportunity to ease the relationship between the three clans. ”

When Lu Beichen said this, he couldn't help but think of the deep feeling of the eight words "There are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people".

Shang Lu's expression was slightly different, and he said, "Is it better to say that you are naïve or hypocritical?"

This is not ironic, but for the first time in Shang Lu's life, when he heard the words "ease the relationship between the three clans" from the mouth of a peer, he naturally wondered, how could a teenager be bored to think about such a far-reaching thing?

"Whatever you say, that's what you say. Lu Beichen replied.

Shang Lu said angrily, "I'm not as far away as you think. If my dad hadn't told me about this event, I wouldn't have come to prepare for the month-long exam, which was so annoying. ”

Lu Beichen frowned slightly, and after a while, the corners of his mouth raised an arc, and then said quietly, "It seems to be interesting." ”

Shang Lu noticed the change in his expression and said, "That's why I want to say, is it interesting to live in fishing for forty years? In other words, it's really boring and terrifying!"

Speaking of this, he was a little excited, but this was a secret matter after all, so he tried his best to keep his voice low and continued, "I estimate that in the Southwest Spirit Clan and the Northwest Demon Clan, more young geniuses will definitely be selected to participate, and the scene must be even more spectacular than in the past." ”

"Interesting. Lu Beichen sighed again.

"Although I'm not interested in any national exams, it would be a great opportunity to get out of the continent and see the islands. ”

"And it is said that Ling Yumo has come to the Holy Capital, maybe a lucky young man will be caught by her. ”

Speaking of this, Shang Lu's face couldn't help but pass a smile.

Lu Beichen looked at Shang Lu's appearance and sneered slightly, "What's so lucky about this......

"I forgot, you're a country boy. Shang Lu slapped his head with one hand and said helplessly, "You don't know her, of course you say that." ”

"Who is Ling Yumo?" asked Lu Beichen.

"The daughter of Emperor Ling, the princess of the Spirit Clan, the purest bloodline, and the future master of the Spirit Clan. When Shang Lu said these two sentences, his expression was very serious, as if he was announcing something.

Regarding the story of the Spirit Clan, Lu Chen only knew about it in the book in the Qiankun Mirror, but he didn't know anything about the governing structure in the current World Spirit Capital.

Shang Lu had always regarded him as a poor scholar in the countryside, so his ignorance had gone from surprise to speechlessness to habituality, so he explained again.

"The love story of Emperor Ling and Empress Ling under the stars, they finally stayed together after hardships, and it was not easy to create a special life. However, romance is short-lived after all. But a few years ago, Emperor Ling disappeared from the world for some reason, and the Queen of Ling never stepped out of the world again, and retreated in a palace in Lingdu. ”

And the bloodline they left behind has naturally become the temporary master of the spiritual capital. It is said that at that time, the girl was still seven years old. ”

Hearing this, Lu Beichen's heart was a little touched, so he asked, "And then?"

"They all say that she is a temporary master, which means that her position is not stable, and she is not the real head of the clan. ”

"In fact, it stands to reason that she is the natural master of the Spirit Clan, and she is the darling of the heavens, the only one of the purest bloodlines in heaven and earth, there are countless beautiful legends about her, most of the Spirit Clan support her, but some factions like to rebel, so over the years, there should be a lot of things that have happened in the Spirit Clan, but it is also very well concealed. ”

"It was also said that the princess did not know what to do, so that most of the people of the Spirit Clan willingly recognized this master. ”

Lu Beichen was silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Shang Lu didn't notice this, but continued, "There are really a lot of rumors about her, from birth to now, it seems that every moment is a legend. ”

Lu Beichen raised his head slightly, glanced at him, and still didn't speak, but the meaning in his eyes was obvious.
