Chapter 61: The assessment begins
The martial arts assessment has never been opened in a remote township like Jiangcheng, so when this day comes, the entire Jiangcheng is boiling. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the first two items of the martial arts assessment will not be open to the public, this cannot stop the enthusiasm of the people of Jiangcheng to watch the excitement.
They gathered around the door of the Jiangcheng Mansion one by one, watching the martial artists who had obtained the exam cards coming one after another, and couldn't help but judge their heads.
Occasionally, when they meet familiar or local warriors in Jiangcheng, they will also let out bursts of encouraging cheers.
Li Rong put on a cloak, lined up the crowd with difficulty, and came to the door of the mansion.
"Stop, test the card. The official stopped him and demanded that he show his examination card.
Li Rong handed over the exam card and waited for the officials to confirm that it was correct before entering the yamen.
He bypassed the front yard of the government and came to the martial arts arena at the assessment site.
The martial arts arena has changed a lot from the previous one, and the ring in the middle has been demolished, leaving a large space vacant. The stones were also taken away, replaced by dark black stone pillars, and I don't know what they were used for.
There are a lot of warriors wearing cloaks in the martial arts arena, most of them are warriors with heads and faces in other places, they come for the top ten rewards, but they are worried that they will not be able to enter the top ten by accident, and they will lose face, so they choose this kind of dress with their heads and tails exposed.
Li Rong came to the field, and the people around him saw that he was dressed as a living person, and there was no one who was willing to come up to talk, Li Rong was so happy.
Not long after, the warriors who participated in the martial arts assessment arrived, and Li Rong stood in an inconspicuous position and saw the beautiful Li Wushuang and the handsome and extraordinary Li Yang.
The two caused a stir as soon as they arrived. Without any prejudice, these two people stand together, and they really have a feeling of being talented and beautiful, especially when both of them are very confident and proud, at first glance they are people in the same world.
"Alright, everyone, please be quiet. After the martial artists who participated in the assessment arrived, the fat master of the Jiangcheng Mansion climbed the high platform with a shy stomach, looked at the nearly two hundred martial artists below, coughed lightly and said:
"This large-scale martial arts assessment is the result of His Majesty's vigorous promotion, this is the fortunate thing of our Jiangcheng warriors, and every one of us here must not forget Your Majesty's kindness......"
The master began an explanation mixed with sycophants, and when he said that his mouth was dry, he got to the point: "This martial arts assessment is sponsored by the Jiangcheng Mansion, and the whole process is supervised by Lord Liu of the Terracotta Division, and all the assessment results are uniformly judged by the Lord Long of the Terracotta Division, to ensure fairness and justice, and I hope you will work hard." ”
After speaking, the chubby body bowed to the stands in the distance.
In the stands opposite, Lord Liu, who had a two-sided relationship with Li Rong, removed his groom's outfit and changed into a set of official uniforms, which looked very majestic.
Lord Liu stood up, stared at the warriors below, and said loudly: "This official is Liu Chengfeng, the soldier and horse division, and he is the invigilator of your martial arts assessment, and some of you may be participating in the martial arts assessment for the first time, so I have to explain some rules to you." ”
"First, in the process of martial arts assessment, it is not allowed to maliciously injure the opponent, and those who violate the order will have their results cancelled; second, in the process of martial arts assessment, they are not allowed to engage in favoritism in any form, and once discovered, they will be disqualified from the martial arts assessment and will never be hired; third, after the end of the three martial arts assessments, the final results will be announced by Lord Long, and no one shall have any objections. ”
As soon as the three rules were exported, a wave was set off in the martial arts arena.
The first one is good to say, this is to ensure the safety of the martial artists participating in the assessment as much as possible, of course, the word "malice" in this is worth playing, after all, under the shadow of the sword, it is understandable to kill people by mistake, which is not within the scope of "malice".
The second rule is to ensure the fairness and impartiality of the martial arts assessment, and prevent some martial artists participating in the assessment from secretly communicating with each other in private, or simply looking for masters to impersonate the top test.
It's nothing.
But this third article has the flavor of the overlord clause, the final result is announced by Lord Long of the Terracotta Division, and everyone must not object, that is to say, no matter how you perform in the assessment process, the final result, only Lord Long has the final say, even if you get the final victory in the third assessment, as long as Lord Long thinks that you are second, then you are second!
Of course, this kind of rule of living and bullying has caused the dissatisfaction of many martial artists, and they are all worried that someone will secretly bribe that Lord Long, in this case, what will these martial artists with strength and no background do? Anyway, the final quota is up to Lord Long, and in the end, it will definitely be given to those candidates from rich families.
"Silence!" Listening to the complaints of the warriors in the field, Liu Chengfeng shouted and covered all the sounds.
After the martial artists in the arena quieted down, Liu Chengfeng continued: "The rules have been said, if there are people who are not satisfied, you can withdraw from the assessment at any time, but if you choose to stay, I don't want to hear any complaints and complaints, otherwise I will immediately cancel your assessment qualifications." ”
These words are not ruthless, and they suppressed all the warriors at once. Isn't the purpose of their participation in the assessment just to gain fame and cultivation resources? If they are disqualified, they don't know that they will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey next time.
"I emphasize, if there are any impostors among you, before the assessment begins, it is best to leave me quickly, the martial arts assessment is determined by His Majesty, and the impostor is regarded as a bully, once I find out, all the top examiners and those who are tested will be punished for the crime of bullying the king, and they will be connected to the nine clans. ”
When Liu Chengfeng said this, he had already revealed a chilling killing intent, and some of the martial artists in the martial arts arena couldn't resist this killing intent, and they were so frightened that they almost peed their crotch.
Fortunately, this killing intent was fleeting, and it didn't make them really ugly.
Li Rong also felt this killing intent, but compared to other martial artists, the impact of killing intent on him was much smaller, but he felt that a gust of cold wind blew up his hair, and that's it.
The crime of deceiving the king!
As soon as these eight words appeared, several warriors wearing cloaks immediately fled the martial arts arena in a hurry. Liu Chengfeng ignored this, and the yamen in the yamen did not step forward to stop him, and then left a few more people one after another.
After waiting for a while, seeing that no one was leaving, Liu Chengfeng waved his sleeves and shouted: "This official announces that the martial arts assessment has officially begun!"
The master who had been waiting on the high platform for a long time hurriedly finished speaking: "The first assessment is a strength test, you have all seen the black stone pillars erected in the martial arts arena, right? These are black gold stone pillars, which are carved from the raw ore of refining black steel, which are very hard, what you have to do is to find the black gold stone pillars corresponding to their respective examination cards, and do your best to leave traces on the stone pillars, the deeper the traces, the stronger the damage, the higher the ranking." ”
"The ranking of this round will determine whether you will withdraw from the martial arts assessment in advance, and I must remind you that the number of participants in this martial arts assessment reaches 200, so this round will brush off the bottom 100 martial artists. ”
"What? Brush off a hundred people? Why!"
"Isn't it? Half of the number of people was wiped out in the first round?
"Isn't that right? How can a martial artist's strength be measured by strength alone? This is too unfair to those martial artists who are good at physical skills!"
"Hehe, the medium-grade Xuanqi that Lao Tzu just ordered in the Treasure Pavilion is finally useful!"
The master's words made several families happy and worried, those warriors who were good at their body skills, and those poor warriors were suddenly full of sorrow, and those who were good at brute strength and held divine weapons were celebrating each other, and seemed to have decided that they could enter the second round of assessment.
"Ahem! I add. The fat master coughed lightly twice and said, "This round of assessment only allows the use of weapons equipped by the government office. ”
"What? Don't you let you use your own weapons? Then I'm not finished!" said a martial artist who possessed a mystical weapon and was good at body skills.
"How come all the weapons equipped by the government are mortal weapons?
"The martial arts assessment is too pitiful! This is simply an impossible assessment!"
The pot exploded in the martial arts arena again, but this time, the master didn't come forward to explain anything, just looked at everyone coldly, and sneered in his mouth.
Seeing this, Li Rong immediately realized that this master was afraid that he had finished saying everything, and then he had already entered the formal assessment, that is to say, the rules set by Lord Liu Chengfeng of the Terracotta Division had begun to take effect, and anyone who complained or complained, he had the right to cancel his assessment qualifications!
Knowing this, Li Rong no longer looked at the excitement, looked down at the examination number, and looked for his own black gold stone pillar in the martial arts arena.
There are many people who are as smart as Li Rong, and they all silently look for the black gold stone pillar, and they don't listen to those complaining voices, and they don't remind them.
Just kidding, everyone standing here is an opponent, and they wish they could get rid of a group of people, so where would they be kind enough to remind them?
There are also some noisy warriors who know how to observe words and feelings, and they have a lot of complaints about the content of the assessment at first, but when they found out the actions of some martial artists in the martial arts arena and the expressions of the masters on the high platform, they also immediately realized the danger, and immediately erased all their thoughts, and began to look for the black gold stone pillar that belonged to them.
In the end, there were only a dozen martial artists in the martial arts arena who were still holding grievances, but the result was that Liu Chengfeng flicked his sleeves and blasted them directly out of the martial arts arena and canceled their assessment qualifications.
So the rest of the martial artists understood that although the final result of the assessment was Lord Long's final say, in the assessment process, Lord Liu was the most unoffended, and everything had to follow his rules.
At the beginning of the assessment, more than a dozen martial artists were eliminated, which was enough to make the remaining martial artists introspect, and no one dared to challenge the majesty of Lord Liu again.
