Chapter 70: Phoenix
Wen Ming finally met the only woman among the five consuls today, and she is also the oldest consul - Liu Junyi.
This old lady of the Liu family rarely goes out and about on weekdays, Wen Ming is still the first time to see her, she is indeed a little old, only a few years older than Su Dingzhen but already full of white hair, but her face is wrinkled but not deep, her mental state is also excellent, her face is ruddy, and she looks much younger than an ordinary old woman of this age.
At this time, a circle was drawn with white ash on a wide wasteland outside the fence, with a diameter of about 900 meters, and a mark was made with white ash in the center, and the five consuls would stand near the center point when Chinese New Year's Eve officially began.
This circle is the venue for the 315 young Dawn warriors to compete, the field is overgrown with weeds, and there are many depressions and bumps among the weeds, but this is not that Red Maple City does not have the hand to tidy up the field, but it is deliberate, the soldiers will encounter countless environmental terrain in the future, and this little obstacle at this time can't be overcome, so what's the future?
The reason why it is a circle of 900 meters is not only to give the Dawn warriors a suitable battle space, but also because such a range can make any part of the entire field within the divine consciousness range of the five archons.
After the spiritual value exceeds 10 points, the divine consciousness can be released, and every 0.1 point can increase the distance of the divine consciousness by 1 meter, among the five people, Su Dingzhen's spiritual value is the highest, enough to have 72 points, Liu Jun is slightly less, 68 points, and the other Jiang, Lin, and Wen are 56, 49, and 46 respectively, standing in the center point can make the lowest spiritual Wen Ruoxu's divine consciousness cover all places in the field.
Everyone's divine consciousness should cover the circle so that there are five people's divine consciousness cross-covering in any place, so that the warrior's damage ratio to the demon beast can be judged to have the most fair and accurate value.
If there is an archon whose spirit is too low to draw the circle too small because of him, then the size of the circle is based on the second lowest spirit of the archon, and the lower one is taken, anyway, the warriors will not all run to the edge of the battle, and occasionally the target that needs to be focused on runs to the edge and directly calculates it with the naked eye, of course, this is not as direct and vocal as the divine consciousness cover.
The 900-meter-diameter arena is located in the middle of the 20-kilometer-long fence, and in addition to the 315 young warriors vying for the qualification to defend the year, there are almost the same number of middle-aged and elderly warriors, who can not only protect the young warriors, but also absorb the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi that flows from their bodies after the death of the Yuyu.
The entire 20-kilometer-long fence stands three or four warriors every ten or twenty meters, and they will continue to drive the Xi Beast to the middle circle, and the warriors who are located in the circle at the beginning will take the initiative to leave and run to the edge of the fence after the warriors next to the circle drive the Xi Beast in, so the Chinese and foreign warriors who guard the fence will drive the Xi Beast to the circle and absorb the vitality of heaven and earth and run to the periphery to continue to drive the Xi Beast, forming a cycle.
It's not that easy to do, and there are many details to consider, but the good thing is that everyone knows what to do after many years of this tradition, and the coordination of the consuls is well organized every year.
As for the intermediate Xi Beast, it is in charge of the scattered Chaoyang Warriors, if you encounter several Chaoyang Warriors near the high-level Xi Beast, they will contain the high-level Xi Beast at a relatively safe distance, and the Xi Beast is crazy and does not have much reason, and it is easy to be hit by the warriors and run wildly everywhere, so it is no problem for the Chaoyang Warrior to be restrained for a while.
At the same time, the warrior with a whistle made of the bones of the chirping bird will blow the whistle to pass the news to the consul layer by layer, and the sound of the chirping bird bone whistle spreads far and wide, but it is not too precious something, many warriors have it, so even the news from the very edge of the archon can be quickly received and rushed over.
At this time, Wen Ming was chatting with Ji Jingyun and Cui Chenfeng, needless to say, Phoenix, Cui Chenfeng was also in the list of 315 young warriors, and being able to chat with two of the three geniuses of Red Maple City obviously made Cui Chenfeng quite excited, especially when talking to Ji Jingyun, he couldn't speak well, which made other soldiers near and far laugh secretly and envy and jealousy.
After Ji Jingyun said hello to Cui Chenfeng, he said to Wen Ming: "Why didn't you bring the cute kitten you carry every day today?" Ji Jingyun always thought it was just an ordinary kitten.
Wen Ming replied: "I'm afraid it's inconvenient to fight today, so I'll stay at home." "He is afraid that if he takes it outside, the kitten will not be able to control it and become a night beast, although the probability is extremely small, but what if there is an accident?
Ji Jingyun didn't ask any more questions after an "oh" for a while, although she liked kittens a lot, she was not as obsessed with them as Lan Yu'er, and continued: "Look at your appearance, you have been getting a lot of friends recently, are you planning to fight for that championship?"
Wen Ming smiled and said, "Don't you have the heart to fight?"
"How is it possible, you lost the last competition, and you were not convinced, so this time you will compete again, how about who can win the championship?"
"Okay, but how about we raise the stakes this time?"
Ji Jingyun was slightly stunned: "Bet, what bet do you want, I don't have as much money as you." ”
Wen Ming smiled evilly: "Don't gamble, if I lose, I'll give you a treasure to increase your cultivation speed, if I win, I want you to be my Wen family's daughter-in-law, of course, not now, wait for the future when you feel like you want to marry and then marry me." ”
Ji Jingyun was stunned, Cui Chenfeng, who was clubbed like a light bulb, was stunned, and Wen Ruoxu, who had extremely sensitive five senses and seemed to be cultivating qi cultivation dozens of meters away, also twitched slightly.
Wen Ming is not talking nonsense for a while, he has carefully considered, as a normal teenager, it is inevitable that he will have a good impression of a talented and beautiful girl like Phoenix, and even if the Wen family was established for a short time compared to the other ones, it was already the third generation when it was passed to him, and as a child of the family, he was born with a heart for geniuses, and when this phoenix first became a warrior, the Wen family wanted to try it with several other families if it was not too poor.
In addition, the treasure in Wen Ming's mouth is naturally Bi Ling Elixir, Bi Ling Elixir is still very effective against the Dawn Warriors, Wen Ming is planning to send Ji Jingyun Bi Ling Elixir whether she wins or loses, with the help of Bi Ling Elixir, she also has hope to be admitted to the Three University Palaces, and there are two students in a remote town who are admitted to the Three University Palaces at the same time, not to mention how much benefit it is to Red Maple City, only that Ji Jingyun will be grateful to the Wen family regardless of whether she marries into the Wen family in the end, and exchange the Bi Ling Elixir that is not valuable to Wen Ming for a student of the Three University Palaces, how to calculate the gratitude of the future war division, how to cost-effective.
In the end, if the two of them are admitted together, they will choose the same school palace, and the two geniuses will definitely have a better development in the school palace by supporting each other, and they don't know what life in the school palace is like, and it will always be more reassuring to have the help of another person.
Wen Ruoxu's eyelids turned thousands of thoughts in his head, so he roughly guessed Wen Ming's plan in an instant, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook slightly, and he was very satisfied with Wen Ming's words.
Ji Jingyun and Cui Chenfeng are not as old and treacherous as Wen Ruoxu, Cui Chenfeng is okay, he came back to his senses after a while, although he was surprised, he couldn't help but envy Wen Ming, genius is really different, direct enough, but think about it, if the two of them can really be together, the future may be a good story.
Compared to Cui Chenfeng Ji Jingyun, the party is a little overwhelmed, no matter how talented she is, she is only a 16-year-old girl who is dedicated to cultivation, although there have been people like Jiang Haitao who pursued her before, but no one has ever said anything like her to her face-to-face, let alone directly talk about marriage, the most important thing is that it is Wen Ming who said this.
It is undeniable that she has a slight affection for Wen Ming, in the eyes of the genius and proud phoenix, Cui Chenfeng and Jiang Haitao and the like next to him can only be regarded as passers-by, but Wen Ming is different, as a genius warrior, Wen Ming is also a genius, and as an ordinary girl, Wen Ming looks handsome, especially those eyes, which are particularly lethal to her. But it's just a good feeling, and it's far from enough to love or like.
After all, a phoenix is a phoenix, after all, it is different from ordinary girls, although it is true that she was stunned for a while, but after sobering up, she was quite calm, she smiled and shook her head to hide a slightly unnatural expression: "I don't want to think about marriage so early." ”
Wen Ming pressed step by step: "Are you afraid of losing to me? So let's do it, if you lose, just promise me that if you want to find a partner, give me priority, no matter whether you win or lose, I will give you this kind of treasure, which is very beneficial to your cultivation." In fact, he also knew that it was impossible for Ji Jingyun to agree to the previous conditions, but he still proposed it, in order to make Ji Jingyun difficult to refuse in the face of his next condition.
Make an excessive request first, the other party can't accept it, but often unconsciously raise your acceptance bottom line a little, and then make a less excessive request at this time, the possibility of the other party agreeing is much higher.
Ji Jingyun was a little hesitant, compared to the previous condition, this condition is undoubtedly much better, Wen Ming only said that it was priority and did not say that it was necessary, and what he said was very good for cultivation may be true, otherwise he would cultivate too fast, which is very attractive to Ji Jingyun, since she knew that Wen Ming wanted to take the entrance examination of the three university palaces, she naturally refused to admit defeat, but she knew that it was impossible with their family's economy, and she really didn't want to let go if she had the opportunity at this time.
In the end, it was the same, this condition was that Ji Jingyun, who was mentioned by Wen Ming, was not so resistant, so after thinking about it for a while, she still nodded hesitantly.
Wen Ming smiled with satisfaction, as long as Ji Jingyun agreed, it would be the beginning of success, and there would be a long time in the future, so he was not in a hurry.
Cui Chenfeng was greatly impressed, and Wen Ruoxu, who put his ears up to this side, almost laughed.
