Chapter 294: The First Round of Boredom

Three days later, as the aftermath of the volcanic tremors completely subsided, the triennial trial of Yongyan officially began.

On the stone wall at the end of the inner city, tens of thousands of mystics gathered at the entrances of the various fire domains, listening carefully to the rules of the first round of trials promulgated by a Holy Sect elder.

All the mystics who came to participate in the trial listened very carefully, and the first round was the only link that the vast majority of mysteries could participate in, and it was also the only round in which they could show their strength and luck.

The rules of the first round are no different from previous years, and the key content is one point - collect as many occult resources as possible.

Whether it is medicinal herbs, Xuan fruits, ores, even soil and rocks, as long as the Xuan Qi and Fire elements contained in them meet the minimum requirements, they can all be regarded as Xuan Dao resources.

Different types and different qualities of resources can be exchanged for different resource points, for example, the lowest one-grade Yanyang Mud can only be exchanged for one resource point, while the highest Wangpin Yanyang Fruit can be exchanged for 500,000 resource points.

At the same time as the rules were promulgated, each participant was given a waist card, and a miniature Xuan Array was arranged inside the waist card, which could be explored through the entrance of the Fire Domain.

'20214-2', this is the number engraved on the waist card that Wu Hui got, the number in front of it should correspond to the order of registration, as for the back '2', he doesn't understand what it means, because there is no sixth digit on the waist card obtained by the participants around him.

……

Molten Fire Domain.

The first layer, which was originally a dark red color, suddenly had a pitch-black area.

The black area spread rapidly, and then scattered into countless scurrying black dots, spreading from the left and right sides in all directions of the first layer.

There was no opening ceremony, and there was no speech session, and the moment these tens of thousands of mystics stepped into the fire domain, the Yongyan trial officially began.

"Do you want a coat?"

At the exit of the Fire Domain sat a Holy Sect disciple, and when a candidate came out, he handed over a wide red coat.

"Wearing a coat when it's so hot?"

Wu Hao wiped the sweat that began to ooze from his forehead, and his face was full of doubt.

There were a lot of mysteries who entered, and coupled with the deadly high temperature of the Fire Domain, that disciple's attitude was very bad, and he became impatient when he heard Wu Yu's question.

"Don't just hurry forward, don't get in the way of others."

Wu Hao quickly glanced at the group of test takers in front of him and found that they had all taken their coats.

Since everyone has taken it, it means that it should be useful.

With this in mind, he didn't ask any more questions, and took the coat from the disciple's hand, and then he realized that the coat had more than twenty pockets sewn inside and out, and it seemed that it should be used to store resources.

In order to improve the efficiency of resource collection, multiple resource submission stations have been built on each layer of the fire domain, and participants can go to the resource submission station at any time and exchange the resources in their hands for resource points to ensure that they will not be snatched away by others, and will not affect their actions because of the excessive resources they carry.

Due to the large area of the fire area and the limited number of resource submission stations, the best way for test takers is to collect enough resources and redeem them at once.

Because of this, even if they know that the temperature in the fire area is extremely high, the vast majority of test takers will still choose to wear this special coat.

"20214-2, when the trial is over, remember to return the coat." The disciple wrote down the number on Wu's waist card.

Do you want to pay it back?

Wu Yu thought for a while and handed the coat back: "I don't want it." ”

The disciple: "? ”

Ask for a while, ask for a while, don't want for a while, play me?

"I didn't know that the coat was for stuff, but I actually brought my own bag."

Seeing that the disciple's face was lowered, Wu Yu explained as he reached out and took out a neatly folded hemp bag from the placket of his clothes.

Although the red coat has many pockets, the capacity is small, and how hot the coat is to wear is far less realistic than carrying a sack.

That disciple's mind was a little confused, after so many Yongyan trials, he had never seen anyone bring a sack to participate in the first round of trials.

Isn't this guy afraid of being robbed?

Unless...... He's strong?

Thinking of this, the disciple's tone suddenly became much more polite: "That's it...... It doesn't matter, you can rest assured, it's not mandatory. ”

He took his coat and crossed out the numbers he had written down.

This scene made the test takers behind them stunned, when did the disciples of the Fire Saint Sect speak so politely.

The test taker who was originally lined up behind Wu Hao asked tentatively, "Who was that person just now?" ”

The Holy Sect disciple's face dropped again: "What nonsense are you talking about, do you want a coat?" ”

Participant: "......"

His performance made the participants behind him more and more sure that the young man just now was definitely not simple.

Looking at the crowd in the red coat, the maverick figure carrying a hemp bag, I don't know if it was a fever illusion, they seemed to see the young man's body suddenly become much taller.

……

Directly above the Flame Heart Temple, in the midst of the scorching firelight and the heat wave that distorted the space, two figures quietly looked down at the crowd below.

The Fire Elder held a compass in his hand, and four golden rings divided the compass into five areas, corresponding to each area of the Fire Domain.

In the area corresponding to the first layer, hundreds of specially marked spots of light are rapidly spreading.

The owners of these points of light are the suspects identified by the patrol team in the past few days, whether they are selling, touching, or carrying items contaminated with dark breath, they are all listed as the objects of key observation.

And among this group of people, there are two points of light that are particularly prominent, that is, among all the suspects, the most likely person is the Dark Domain itself.

Through the positioning of the compass, Elder Fire saw Wu Yu dragging a bag of marijuana at a glance, and said with a strange face: "This is not like the style of the Dark Domain. ”

"Maybe it's his disguise."

The Yan City Lord beside him chuckled, his gaze moved downward, and his eyes seemed to penetrate the cover of the red flame: "The aura of the fire phoenix is getting weaker and weaker, but I don't know when the dark domain is going to make a move." ”

……

A group of test takers, dressed in uniform red coats, scattered in all directions, mostly towards the opposite side of the first level, which is far away from the Fire Domain Passage and is the easiest area to find resources.

A small number of participants headed straight for the edge, apparently preparing to go straight to the second floor.

Wu Yu was one of the few people who did not wear a red coat, so when many test takers passed by him, they cast curious glances, especially when they saw him go in the direction of the second floor, there was a little more envy and admiration in their eyes.

Feeling their gaze, and then looking at the test takers who were searching around on the first floor, Wu Hao felt very strange.

Obviously, the lower the level of resources, the higher the grade, why do these people prefer to gather in the first layer?

Just thinking of this, he suddenly felt a fluctuation of Xuan power from the waist card, and then a female voice came from the waist card.

"20104-2, Wu Hao, fourth level and six turns, the cultivation has not met the requirements, and the permission to go to the second layer has not been opened, if the rules are violated, the trial qualification will be cancelled."

As the voice fell, a countdown appeared on the waist card.

【1:59:59】

Wu Yu: "......"

He finally understood why most of the people stayed on the first floor, and why others looked at him with awe and admiration.

Dare to love them for thinking of themselves as big guys, but in fact they are indeed big guys, but they are missing a layer of big guy shell.

This kind of rule is nothing more than forcing the test takers to empty the resources of each layer as much as possible, but it is a waste of time for Wu Hao, because no amount of resources is too attractive to him.

Looking at the Flame Heart Hall in the distance, Wu Yu secretly sighed, threw a thought to the source of fire, and began to explore the first layer according to the guidance of the regenerated fire element.

Seeing him hesitate for a moment on the edge of the first layer, and then silently turned back, the surrounding participants who noticed Wu Yu couldn't guess the reason, and the eyes cast by him were suddenly full of disdain and disdain.

I thought he was a maverick powerhouse, but I didn't expect him to be a stunned young man who didn't understand the rules.

And the eyes of some people gradually changed, as if the jackal had seen an ignorant little lamb.

……

Smack!

Wu Yu threw an unknown piece of ore into the sack, dragged the sack that was already half full, and followed the fire elemental guidance to the next direction.

Not far behind him, three male test takers pretended to be nearby looking for resources, looking at the sack in Wu Hao's hand from time to time, their eyes full of greed.

"Boss, this kid is lucky, he has dug up so much ore in such a short time."

"Isn't it time for us to do it? If someone else finds this moving resource point, it will be troublesome. ”

The man who was called the boss seemed to want to wait for Wu Yu to accumulate more resources, but after hearing the advice of the two companions, he felt that it made sense.

Anyway, leeks will grow longer after cutting, and they have to be cut early and late, and they can be relieved early if they are cut early.

Thinking of this, he gave an order and quietly surrounded him with two companions.

Just as he calculated the distance and was about to make a move, he suddenly saw Wu Hao's figure become illusory.

Blinded?

As soon as this thought flashed, he heard a muffled snort from his companion on the left, and just as he turned his head, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

"You ......"

His eyes widened, his body seemed to be frozen, and he couldn't make any counterattacks, only to watch as a bag of marijuana quickly enlarged in front of his eyes, and then he lost consciousness.

Seeing this, the last person dared to have the idea of resisting, shouted 'A good man spares his life', and knelt down with a puff.

"I didn't want to kill you."

Looking at his exaggerated appearance, Wu Hao only felt a little funny.

The man breathed a sigh of relief, the scene where Wu Yu stunned his boss and his companions for a moment really frightened him.

Those were two late-stage fourth-level mysteries, and they were stunned when they said they were stunned, thinking that he was a soft little lamb, but they never expected him to be a vicious wolf with a sheep's clothing on his head.

He wondered how such a powerful character would be in the first layer with a group of mystics who were less than the fifth level.

"I'll ask you a question."

Hearing Wu Yu's voice, the man nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "You just ask, I will know everything, and I will say everything." ”

Wu Yu took out his waist card and shook it in front of his eyes: "Is there a way to go directly to the next floor without waiting for this countdown?" ”

As soon as he heard the tone, he realized that in addition to the rules issued by the elder, there should be many hidden rules in this first round of trials that he did not know.

The man was shocked: "Huh? You didn't reach level 5? ”

Wu Yu frowned slightly: "You have to reach level five to go to the next layer in advance?" No other way? ”

The man came back to his senses and said honestly: "This is the first time you have participated in the Yongyan Trial, and there is a hidden rule in the first round of the trial, as long as you collect five four-grade resources or exchange resource points to reach 10,000 points, you can directly enter the second round." ”

"However, in addition to collecting resources, the Yongyan Trial is more important for selecting talents, if you reach the fifth level, you only need to collect three four-grade resources, you can directly advance to the second round."

Wu Yu asked, "Can it still be like this?" Isn't it based on the ranking of resource points? ”

"You really don't know?"

Perhaps it was Wu Hao's ignorance that weakened the man's fear of the combat power he had just shown, and he plucked up his courage and looked at Wu Hao with curious eyes: "Fourth-grade resources generally only appear in the third and fourth layers, and there will be Yan Ling haunts from the third layer, so a mystic person like us who has cultivated to less than the fifth level will at most reap some benefits in the first two layers." ”

"If it weren't for bad luck, it would generally be impossible to advance in this way......"

Speaking of this, his voice slammed, and his gaze unconsciously drifted to the hemp bag in Wu Hao's hand.

It is impossible for ordinary people, but the ...... in front of him Luck doesn't seem ordinary.

……

After learning the hidden rules of early promotion, Wu Yu finally came to his senses, accelerated the accuracy of collecting resources, and soon the sack in his hand was full.

Of course, there are many other 'enthusiastic' test takers who have taken the credit for this.

Nearly a thousand resource points were exchanged at the nearest resource submission station, and under the incredulous gazes of several Holy Sect disciples, Wu Yu began a new round of collection with high morale carrying the empty sack.

With the guidance of the fire element, combined with the speed of the Shattered Moon Aurora, and the door-to-door delivery of 'enthusiastic' test takers, it can basically fill a bag in more than ten minutes.

After two rounds of brushing, his reputation seemed to spread on the first level, and those who took the test saw him from afar as if they had seen the plague.

And the level of resources in the first layer is really not high, even if there is a fire element guidance, the second-grade resources that Wu Yu can find are very limited, and most of the rest can only be exchanged for single-digit first-grade resources.

In fact, if he hadn't noticed that there were two emperors above the Flame Heart Hall watching the Fire Domain, Wu Hui would have thought about letting the source of fire lead Yan Ling and Yi Ling to the first layer.

Although he didn't use this method, his ability to accurately hunt for treasures still caught the attention of the two emperors.

……

City Lord Yan narrowed his eyes: "This kid's perception ability is not weaker than that of ordinary kings." ”

Elder Fire still had that strange expression: "The dignified Dark Envoy, it shouldn't be able to do it to this extent, right?" ”

City Lord Yan agreed with this, the emperor has the majesty of the emperor, even if it is to seize the fire phoenix, he will not run around like this in the trial.

He could have waited until the back layers opened, and with his extraordinary perception, he could easily collect a few four-grade resources and directly advance to the second round.

But the vigilance that should be there is still no less, and the city lord Yan said: "No, ...... is also excluded."

"I know." Elder Fire waved his hand impatiently, and suddenly he seemed to see something, and said in a strange tone, "Your people won't be discovered, right?" ”

Hearing this, City Lord Yan also noticed that Wu Hao's position at the moment was close to his own arrangement.

"Just in case, I took out the Imperial Shadow Isolation Immortal Xuan Array, even if it is us, it will be difficult to find out without knowing in advance......"

As soon as he said this, his voice paused abruptly and he looked down in dismay.

……

If you don't collect 10,000 resource points, even if you get to the second layer, you still have to wait for two hours to go to the third layer.

Just as he was following the fire elemental guide to the next location, he suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

How do you feel like you're being watched by a lot of people?

He looked around, and the test takers had already avoided him when they saw him, so that they could not defend themselves from such a distance...... I can't seem to say.

Just look at it, there won't be a piece of meat missing anyway.

Wu Hui came to the place designated by the fire element, and skillfully dug it down, but did not take it out.

It's as if it's cut off by some kind of force.

He ran his pupil technique and unexpectedly spotted a few formation lines.

This is...... Formation?

How can there be a Xuan Array here?

Is there a word around that indicates that it is forbidden to collect, Wu Yu thought about it, aimed at the weak point of the formation, stabbed the five fingers of his right hand into the soil, and finally took out a spar with an extraordinarily strong fire elemental aura.

At the same time, he suddenly felt dozens of breaths above the fifth level, and when he looked up, he saw a group of neatly equipped soldiers appear in front of him at some point, and the generals led by him had the breath of a king.

A formation that isolates the body and breath......

A group of soldiers and the general stared at Wu Yu in unison, with instinctive vigilance in their eyes, but more ...... It's dazed.

They had no idea how to be found out, and they weren't even told what to do with the unexpected.

The atmosphere suddenly became extremely awkward.

Wu Yu glanced at the general and pointed to the waist card on his body: "I'm here to participate in the trial." ”

Saying that, he blinked his eyes and shook the spar in his hand that was enough to be included in the five-grade resources: "Can I take this away?" ”

The general stretched out his hand indifferently, and the meaning in his eyes was obvious.

The Xuan Array was damaged by you, and it was very good that I didn't settle accounts with you, and I still want to take away the formation base? What do you think?

The fluctuations caused by the destruction of the Xuan Array were not small, and there were already many people who paid special attention to Wu Hao's movements, and soon some of the participants noticed the group of soldiers who appeared out of nowhere.

"Sun Army? How could they be in the Fire Domain? ”

"Wokka, when did they come? I didn't notice it at all. ”

"I saw it, they seemed to be...... Out of thin air. ”

Listening to the discussion in the distance, Wu Yu was a little embarrassed and said, "Why don't I help you recover?" ”

The general of the Sun Army: "? ”

The next moment, space distorted, and this group of soldiers of the Sun Army disappeared out of thin air.

"Lie down, what do I see?"

"Why are they gone??"

"Did that kid just bury something back?"

Putting back the crystal that formed the base of the formation, and by the way, channeling the energy inside to complete the formation, Wu Yu filled the soil back and said to the 'empty' air in front of him: "You're welcome, this is what I should do, then I'll go first." ”

After saying that, he dragged the hemp bag away without blushing and heartbeat.

Although the Shadow Extinction Array had been restored by him, it seemed to ...... Doesn't make much sense?

I can't say that, at least it saves them from standing and being watched, which is embarrassing.

……

Over the Hall of Flamehearts.

Elder Fire was silent for a long time: "Didn't you say that you wouldn't be discovered?" ”

City Lord Yan: "......"

How could he have thought that kid was so coincidental that he actually broke the Xuan Array directly.

Wait a minute...... Is this really just a coincidence?

As soon as he thought of this, he saw that the group of Sun Troops that had been revealed had disappeared again.

"He understands formations......" City Lord Yan pondered for two seconds and looked at Elder Fire: "I heard that the Dark Domain is also proficient in formations. ”

Elder Fire pondered, "You mean, he did this on purpose, wanting to find out our layout in the Fire Domain?" ”

"It's a bit possible to think about it this way, but since he has already discovered the Shadow Extinction Array, why did he break the Xuan Array?"

"Also, he repaired it after he broke it, what does that mean?"

City Lord Yan fell silent again, to be honest, he couldn't understand what Wu Yu was doing at all.

"Whatever his intentions, we just have to see the move."

Lord Yancheng's eyes flashed: "If he doesn't make a move, when he arrives at the Flame Heart Palace, it will be our home field." ”

……

It was clear that the Sun Army was hiding in the Fire Domain for more than just now.

After this lesson, Wu Hui communicated with the source of fire, and changed the search for the nearest resource to the nearest resource of the fourth grade and below to himself.

Under Wu Hao's non-stop rush, when the two-hour countdown was over, his resource point finally slowly rose to his early 5,000s.

In the resource submission point, Wu Hao couldn't help but sigh: "There are still 5,000 meters left, and 10,000 resource points are really not easy to reach." ”

The test takers who were also submitting resources next to them looked at the less than three-digit resource points recorded on their waist cards and fell into a long silence.

……

Above the Flame Heart Hall, the space on the upper floor where the Fire Elder and the Yan City Lord were located.

Because the plot has reached a critical juncture, the big pig's trotters who came here early to prevent accidents almost didn't slap himself twice.

How did you come up with such a boring part of the first round of trials?

Of course, he wouldn't really slap himself twice, for fear of pain.

Besides, he left hidden rules, who called Wu Hao, this kid is not angry, and he hasn't broken through to the fifth level until now...... Hey? It seems that I sealed his dantian......

Forehead...... That's not the point, don't care, don't care.

Seeing that he didn't know when he would get to the point, he couldn't help but yawn.

Alas, wait.
