On the official road from Quhua Mountain to Rongcheng, Lin Man'er and the four of them walked forward leisurely. Although Ji Yunquan has learned the art of holding spears, he can only fly with one person, and he can't control it more.

Gong Liangzhuo, like Lin Man'er, doesn't know how to use swordsmanship. However, Lin Man'er can step on the wind, although he can barely fly, but it is not cost-effective to use it on the road. Fortunately, Quhua Mountain is not far from Rongcheng.

During this period, Ji Yunquan also flew with Qi Meng's sword. Qi Meng enjoyed the feeling of flying very much, especially with the man he loved. Lin Man'er and Gong Liangzhuo exchanged questions about swordsmanship.

Gong Liangzhuo has been in the Little Sword Wonderland for more than three years. Before Lin Man'er defeated him, he also participated in the assessment of the outer disciples twice, but he failed both times. Because only one person was chosen on both occasions.

Although Lin Man'er has been promoted to the Little Sword Immortal Realm for less than two years, his comprehension of the realm is far better than Gong Liangzhuo's. On the one hand, this is due to personal talent, and on the other hand, it is a good teacher. Although the sloppy old man was unwilling to accept Lin Man'er, he buried Lin Man'er in the soil for a month to let him realize himself.

This way of teaching is not limited to the little sword immortal, but is more far-reaching. Therefore, Lin Man'er has been in retreat for a year, and he has a tendency to reach the second grade of the Sword Immortal, but the Yuan Ying is limited.

Fortunately, Lin Man'er absorbed the Qingyuan of Quhua Mountain and nourished the infant to a great extent. Although the seal still couldn't be lifted, it was enough to support him to use the landing thunder.

The so-called master is the teacher, Gong Liangzhuo After communicating with Lin Man'er, he felt that he could be promoted to the second-grade sword immortal within ten years.

In addition to exchanging swordsmanship, Lin Man'er also asked Gong Liangzhuo about the inner disciples and the assessment.

Gong Liangzhuo told Lin Man'er that according to the information he inquired, there are now four inner disciples who have advanced to the third rank, except for Peng Luo, who has just been promoted this year, and the other three are all "old third grades". And the so-called old three products are actually exploiting loopholes.

Inner disciples will automatically become teachers after advancing to the Spirit Immortal Realm. At that time, they will either be elders of the outer gate or go to serve in the royal family. Of course, in addition to the above two, there are other options, such as returning to the family to serve, idle clouds and wild cranes, and so on.

It has been a few years since the establishment of the Meizhou Branch, so the number of elders from the outer gate has also increased. In this case, a high-ranking elder once proposed to disqualify a disciple from becoming an elder of the outer sect. However, this proposal was opposed by the majority of the elders, and the reason for the opposition was nothing more than two words - profit.

The matter dragged on for a long time, and it was not until Dongfang Qingtang took over the Meizhou Branch that there was a more "reasonable" solution. That is, the disciples have a ten-year inspection period. During this ten years, the status of an inner disciple is retained. However, if you want to become an Outer Sect Elder, you must work for the Academy and meet the prescribed conditions. If the 10-year period expires, those who do not meet the conditions must enter the royal family. Duration, 1,000 years.

In fact, according to Dongfang Qingtang's idea, some of the outer door elders should also be laid off. However, before the implementation, some elders advised her not to rush into the process, so as not to cause chaos. Dongfang Qingtang weighed the pros and cons, and finally shelved the matter.

Decades later, a disciple named Xie Ru discovered a loophole in this rule. According to his theory, within ten years, the disciples will still retain the status of inner disciples. So, if you have a reasonable status, why don't you participate in the promotion assessment? Moreover, all those who have become teachers are all immortal cultivators, and the vast majority of the disciples who participated in the assessment are only immortal cultivators. As a result, the title of the third product was born.

However, these old three products will affect the fairness of the assessment and should have been stopped, but things have taken a turn for the better. Xie Ru took advantage of the loophole to successfully enter the top three of his assessment, but in the final battle for the top spot, he lost.

After Dongfang Qingtang learned about this, he thought that although Lao Sanpin was a loophole, it could also inspire other disciples to practice and improve the difficulty of the assessment, so as to select better seedlings for the academy. All things considered, the pros outweigh the cons.

As for the remaining inner disciples, about sixty percent of the first-grade ones are of the first grade, and about thirty percent of the second-grade ones. Of course, there is also a part of the Taoist realm. The vast majority of these Dao Human Realm disciples are the descendants of the elders of the Inner Gate, and they are born to enjoy the benefits brought by the Yin Meng system.

After listening to Gong Liangzhuo's introduction, Lin Man'er felt that he had to have the strength of the three products to win the first place. After all, it takes a little time to land a thunderbolt. Thinking of this, he also felt the drawbacks of the magic sword cultivation. If he was a pure sword cultivator at this time and could send out sword qi at will, then he was absolutely confident that he would fight Ren Wushuang now.

——————————

The four of them soon arrived at Rongcheng. Rongcheng is the state of Meizhou, and the cultivation forces are very chaotic. For example, the gambling arena where Li Zhihui is located; Qi Meng's Qijia Danpu where he is located; Jianliu Villa, where Pei Yongsi is located; the Kong family who sells divine pets; The Tianbao Pavilion of the state number, etc.

Although Qi Meng was born in Rongcheng, she didn't know much about Rongcheng. So I didn't take the three of them to go shopping, but went straight home.

The Qi family's pill shop is not very large, selling pills outside, and Qi Meng's relatives, apprentices, and servants live inside.

Qi Meng took Ji Yunquan and the three of them into the backyard, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw a ball of Dan fire rushing towards them. Lin Man'er took the lead in drawing his sword and emitted a sword aura. The Dan Fire was split apart by the sword qi and gathered again. Lin Man'er wanted to send another sword, but was stopped by Gong Liangzhuo.

Ji Yunquan understood what Gong Liangzhuo meant, and stabbed out a shot with all his might, although it also pierced the Danhuo, but it was still worse than Lin Man'er's sword. Ji Yunquan was just about to collect his gun, when he saw Dan cremated into three regiments and attacked him. He cast the Water Cloud Spear Immortal Record, moving around and moving, and did not fall behind for a while.

However, the frequency and speed of Danhuo's attacks gradually increased, and Ji Yunquan was a little overwhelmed. With the help of the power of the Silver Moon Spear, he swept away the Danhuo and retreated to the side. After that, a middle-aged man in a Dan robe walked out of the house.

When Qi Meng saw his father, he ran over and said coquettishly: "Daddy, we have worked so hard to see you, why don't you come up and test it." ”

Qi Man accepted the Danhuo and said with a smile: "Only by surprise can you try your true strength." After speaking, he looked at Lin Man'er and the others, "Which of you is Ji Yunquan?" ”

Ji Yunquan took a step forward and saluted: "Junior Ji Yunquan, I have seen my seniors." ”

Qi Man felt a trace of loss in his heart, he still thought that Lin Man'er was Ji Yunquan. Qi Meng saw that his father didn't respond for a long time, pulled his arm and said, "Daddy, people call you." ”

Qi Man nodded, looked at Ji Yunquan and said, "It's very good, I can become an inner disciple with my strength, I must have suffered a lot, right?" ”

Ji Yunquan said firmly: "As long as you can be with Qi Meng, hardship is nothing." ”

"Okay, let's all go inside!"

When they had entered the house, the servant brought tea. Lin Man'er looked at the black tea, and had no desire to taste it at all. Ji Yunquan didn't dare not drink it, but when he drank it in his mouth, he felt like he had chewed a yellow lotus, and his mouth was full of bitterness. Gong Liangzhuo looked very calm, and he slowly finished drinking the tea.

Qi Man observed the expressions and movements of the three of them, and had a rough judgment of their personalities in his heart. Lin Man'er felt that the tea was not delicious, so he didn't drink it, which shows that his personality is straightforward. Although Ji Yunquan didn't want to drink it, he finally drank it, which shows that his character is tolerant. As for Gong Liangzhuo, it is clear at a glance and steady.

After the second round of testing, Qi Man explained: "This is Naidan tea, although it has a bitter taste, it can relieve fatigue. ”

Lin Man'er saw Qi Man looking at himself while talking, gritted his teeth, picked up the teacup and drank it. Qi Man nodded slightly and began to ask about the cultivation of the three of them. After receiving an answer, he asked about his family's situation.

Ji Yunquan replied: "I also have a sister who is in Sioux City in Yanlin County. ”

After Qi Man heard this, he looked at Lin Man'er. Lin Man'er said a little impatiently: "Senior, it's not that I married Qi Meng, so I don't have to answer, right?" ”

Qi Meng was a little displeased with his father's behavior, and said straight to the point: "Daddy, you promised me before, if he can become an inner disciple, he will agree to our marriage." Now, it's time to deliver on your promises. ”

Qi Man was also helpless about this daughter, and admitted: "Okay, I agreed for my father." ”

When Ji Yunquan heard this, he knelt down and bowed: "The son-in-law has seen my father-in-law. ”

Since Qi Man agreed, he was naturally much more friendly to Ji Yunquan. He got up and helped Ji Yunquan up, and advised: "I will try my best to help you practice, I hope you don't live up to your dreams." ”

Ji Yunquan looked at Qi Meng and said firmly: "Never fail her." ”

Hearing this, Qi Meng walked to Ji Yunquan's side and held his arm, looking shy.

Qi Man stroked his beard and smiled, and ordered: "Since your parents are no longer there, the eldest sister is like a mother, please invite her over, and we will discuss the marriage date." ”

After Ji Yunquan agreed, Qi Man asked the servant to take them to rest. After a few people left, Qi Meng's grandfather Qi Su came out.

Qi Man looked at his father and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Qi Su said with a serious face: "I can persist for so long in the realm of a product, and my strength is not bad." It's just that I think his marksmanship is somewhat familiar, and it seems that he has seen it somewhere. ”

"He is now an inner disciple, and he wants to come and worship a good teacher. After practicing marksmanship to a certain level, different paths lead to the same end. ”

"I hope so! With our family background, we can send him into the five grades, and then it depends on his creation. ”

"The five grades are not low, as long as he doesn't cause trouble, he can live a happy life with Meng'er."

Qi Su shook his head, he always had an ominous premonition in his heart.

The servant led Ji Yunquan and the others to the wing room and asked if they wanted to go shopping. Qi Meng naturally wanted to play, but she still asked Ji Yunquan's opinion. Ji Yunquan asked Gong Liangzhuo and Lin Man'er if they wanted to be together.

After Gong Liangzhuo and Lin Man'er had some exchanges, they gained a lot and wanted to learn swordsmanship. Lin Man'er has always had a dream of flying, and decided to practice the Thousand Miles Wind Chasing Technique. Seeing that the two refused, Ji Yunquan also decided to practice after appeasing Qi Meng.

The next day, Ji Yunquan and the others planned to go to Suzhou City to pick up Xuemei. Qi dreamed of following, but was stopped by Qi Man, saying that it was better for his daughter's family to go out less.

The three of them said goodbye to Qi Man, but when they were about to go out, they saw Li Zhihui and his father Li Tianrui coming to the door to propose. Qi Man welcomed their father and son into the lobby, and said apologetically: "Brother Li, I have already married my little daughter to Ji Yunquan." Ling Lang is talented and talented, and the little girl does not have this blessing. ”

"Brother Xian's words are wrong, as far as I know, Ling Ai has not yet made a marriage with him, right? Since you haven't even decided on a relationship, how can you say that you are a match? ”

"Brother Li doesn't know, I made a promise two years ago that if Ji Yunquan can become an inner disciple within three years, I will marry the little girl to him. Now that he is an inner disciple, I should keep my promise. Brother Li can't let me lose my trust, right? ”

Actually, Li Tianrui didn't think that Qi Meng was a good choice for his daughter-in-law, but his son begged him to propose marriage, and he thought of Qi Su's identity as a rank Dan master, so he agreed. Now, since Qi Man is unwilling, he doesn't force it.

However, Li Zhihui seems to be on the same page as Ji Yunquan. He knew Ji Yunquan's family background, and even inquired about her sister's identity. Such a despicable person dares to rob a woman with him, how can he bear it.

At the moment, he bowed to Qi Man and said: "The little nephew naturally doesn't dare to let Uncle Qi lose his trust, but the little nephew has a deep love for Qi Meng and doesn't want her to marry a waste." ”

These words made Qi Man a little displeased, since he had identified Ji Yunquan as his son-in-law, he naturally couldn't let others humiliate him like this. He said: "Ji Yunquan can stand out from the many outer disciples, which is enough to prove his talent and strength, how can it be said to be a waste? ”

"Uncle Qi didn't know that the reason why he was able to become an inner disciple was all because of Lin Man'er's help. With his strength at that time, he couldn't even enter the top ten, let alone get the quota of the inner disciple. ”

Qi Man was a little puzzled and said, "As far as I know, the assessment of the outer disciples has to be done by themselves, right?" And it's a lottery to choose an opponent, so how can you be tricky? ”

Li Zhihui walked up to Lin Man'er and sneered: "There's no need to be tricky at all. This Senior Brother Lin, with his absolute crushing strength and ruthless enough means, threatened other disciples, and insisted on sending Ji Yunquan into the top four. After a pause, he asked, "Really?" Senior Brother Lin? ”

"Pure, when did I threaten them?" looked at Gong Liangzhuo, "Did I threaten you?" ”

Gong Liangzhuo stubbornly said: "There is no such thing. ”

Li Zhihui snorted coldly, clapped his hands, and came in alone.
