Chapter 20: Seven Stars!
The spring flowers are blooming, the willows are green, the cold winter has passed, and the spring of the recovery of all things has been ushered in.
On this day, the morning sun is rising, the sky is clear, and the Yi family's wide martial arts training ground is already full of people, and today is the day of the Yi family's annual test for young disciples.
On the high platform, the core figures of the Yi family are seated. Yi Zhongshan, the patriarch of the Yi family, sat in front, followed by Yi Zhonghai, and the three major elders, among which the white-haired elder was particularly eye-catching, this was the first public appearance of the great elder after he came out of the customs, but this did not prevent everyone from looking at him with respect, and the great elder also smiled and nodded, without the slightest severance. There are also some older generations of the Yi family sitting next to them.
Under the high platform are the young disciples who will be tested today.
The young disciples of the Yi family test only test the disciples before the age of fourteen, after the age of fourteen, they will perform the Yi family's coming-of-age ceremony, and then enter the various positions of the Yi family, and those who perform poorly will either manage the Yi family's industry, or be sent to the surrounding small towns to experience. Disciples who perform well continue to enjoy the treatment of core disciples. In the future, it will be cultivated as the backbone of the Yi family.
The hour has come and the test has begun.
The person in charge of the test is still the third elder of the Yi family, the third elder is wearing a cyan robe at this time, his face is full of red light, although his face is folded, but he is in good spirits, his gray hair is neatly combed behind his head, and he strides to the front of the high platform.
At the front of the platform is a table with a black dynamometer for testing. The third elder stood on the left side of the dynamometer, looked at the many young disciples who were whispering below, coughed lightly, and said, "Quiet, the Yi family's test begins, the first one, Yi Yuan." ”
The third elder's words fell, and a lean young man quickly jumped onto the high platform and put his hand on the test stone.
The golden light on the test stone flashed, "The power of war, five stars." ”
"Yi Yuan, a disciple of the Yi family, is thirteen years old, has the power of battle, is five-star, and has an intermediate level. The voice of the third elder did not carry any color, in his heart, reaching the power of five-star battle at the age of thirteen was already a relatively poor qualification in the Yi family, except for one person, of course.
At this time, a black-clothed young man suddenly appeared in the minds of the three elders, but his delicate face was full of stubbornness.
"Some time ago, I heard that when Yi Tian came back from cultivating in the mountains, he had already reached the power of the six-star battle, but I have never seen this in person, so I will definitely not believe it. "The three elders also attach great importance to today's test, and they secretly have a good relationship with Yi Zhonghai, which is to support Yi Zhonghai to obtain the position of patriarch, and one of the important factors is Yi Zhongshan's son Yi Tian, who used Yi Tian to force Yi Zhongshan to abdicate. If Yi Tian's cultivation speed suddenly accelerated, the pressure on Yi Zhongshan's body would inevitably be much less.
"Take 10,000 steps back, even if Yi Tian really reaches the power of the six-star battle, as long as he does not reach the power of the seven-star battle, he will inevitably be excluded from the treatment of the core disciple, take advantage of this to force Yi Zhongshan to comply, if Yi Qiang can break through to the fighter, the Yi family will inevitably change masters. ”
While the three elders were conducting the disciple's test, they were secretly thinking about the upcoming turmoil of the Yi family in their hearts. "It's best to be able to abdicate Yi Zhongshan at the coming-of-age ceremony of the fourteen-year-old disciple a month after the Yi family. ”
At this time, Yi Zhonghai on the high platform was full of smiles, occasionally talking in a low voice with a few peers around him, pointing out the disciples who came to the stage to test one by one, Yi Zhongshan and the three elders had the same thoughts, but he was much more determined. Yi Qiang's breakthrough made him completely relieved, although with the help of the battle talisman, after reaching the warrior, there is still about a month of consolidation, but it is finally a breakthrough, in the future, the Yi family's key cultivation will be determined, and his father's status will naturally rise a lot. Occasionally looked at Yi Zhongshan, but was slightly stunned, and then sneered.
Yi Zhongshan's face was full of smiles, this was his heartfelt smile, Yi Tian's three stars a year, made Yi Zhongshan feel that everything he had done for Yi Tian over the years was worth it. He had already seen Yi Tian under the high stage, behind the crowd, looking at his son who was much more mature than last year, Yi Zhongshan felt that the corners of his eyes were a little moist, "Tian'er, even if you are not the patriarch of the Yi family, you must continue to become a core disciple in the future, and my father believes that your achievements will inevitably make the entire Yi family brilliant." ”
The white-haired Great Elder sat in the middle of the high platform, looked around at the many young disciples below, and sighed in his heart, he had been in retreat for ten years, during which he rarely cared about the affairs of the Yi family.
The Great Elder noticed a bald-headed young man standing proudly in front of everyone, looking up at the sky, with a proud face, it was Yi Qiang, and the fluctuations in his body at this time had obviously turned into combat power, "At the age of fourteen, he reached the rank of warrior, and his achievements in the future are extraordinary." ”
The Great Elder glanced at him, "Huh" When he saw Yi Tian standing silently in the crowd, the Great Elder couldn't help but let out a surprised voice. The Great Elder's cultivation has reached the intermediate battle phase, communicating the combat power of heaven and earth, although it is far away, he can still faintly feel the fluctuations on Yi Tian's body, "The power of the Seven Star Battle, this little guy." ”
The Great Elder had heard something about Yi Tian before, one star in three years, the name of waste, and it took him to reach the power of three stars at the age of thirteen, and now it seems that four stars a year can not be described by the word genius. "Four stars a year, if it can be maintained, the Yi family will inevitably rise. "However, in the heart of the Great Elder, four stars a year is already a very rare situation, and the way of cultivation becomes, the more difficult it will become. His cultivation qualifications are also excellent, and when he reaches today's sixtieth birthday, he has only reached the cultivation of the intermediate battle phase.
The speed of cultivation not only depends on one's own physique, the battle technique of cultivation, but also a large number of cultivation resources. But it's also a cycle. The family is strong and has a lot of natural cultivation resources, so they can cultivate more outstanding disciples. The growth of excellent disciples makes the family stronger.
"Yi Qiang's cultivation level is predictable, and he will inevitably become a battle minister, even if he surpasses me, it is not impossible, and Yi Tian ......" For Yi Tian, the Great Elder's heart really has no bottom, in his heart, Yi Tian's fast cultivation speed may not last long.
More than half of the Yi family's disciples have been tested, and several of them have reached the power of seven-star battle, and Yi Xuan'er has reached the power of eight-star battle at the age of thirteen, which makes the entire square boil.
Yi Xuan'er, who walked off the high platform, walked to the back of the crowd and Yi Tian's side.
At this time, Yi Xuan'er was wearing a purple dress, and in a year's time, she was more and more watery, with a chuckle, her cheeks were slightly red, and her two small dimples were even more cute.
After a year of growth, Yi Xuan'er has retreated a little bit of youth, is tall, and has changed from a cute girl to a beautiful girl. The eyes of some young disciples were attracted, especially the closest position to the high platform, and the bald head Yi Qiang looked at it viciously.
"Yi Xuan'er is mine, Yi Tian, even if you really reach the power of the six-star battle, I will crush you, in the Yi family, I am the first person. ”
"Brother Yi Tian, has your cultivation really reached the power of the six-star battle?"
Listening to Yi Xuan'er's words, Yi Tian was slightly stunned, shook his head, but did not speak.
"Next, Yi Qiang!"
As soon as Yi Qiang's name came out, it immediately entered the boiling oil pot like a drop of water, and there was an immediate sensation in the martial arts training field.
This first person of the young disciple of the Yi family can continue the glory of the past years today. Last year, Xiu Wei had already reached the power of the Nine Star War, and what level did it reach today.
Bald head Yi Qiang, full of pride, strode to the high platform, slapped the dynamometer with his big hand, the dynamometer, shook for a while, and immediately emitted a light red light.
As soon as this light came out, it immediately aroused everyone's discussion.
"It's a pale red, a color that only combat power can trigger. ”
"Brother Qiang really broke through to the fighter, and it was really the first day of the Yi family. ”
"I've heard that Brother Qiang has failed many times, and the last time he was able to become a fighter with the help of battle talismans. ”
"Where did the battle talisman come from, the Yi family still has this kind of thing?"
"You forget, last year, the Liu family came to withdraw from the marriage, and the elders of the Baiyun Sect stayed strongly. ”
The voices of the crowd were originally very loud, but when they talked about the battle talisman and the divorce, their voices were unconsciously much quieter, and some of the disciples had quietly turned their heads to look at the young man who had been calm.
Yi Tian didn't have any change in his expression towards the discussions of the people around him, but the fist in his sleeve clenched tighter and tighter, "Yi Qiang, Liu Wu, you wait."
On the test platform, Yi Qiang did not step down as last year, and stood next to the dynamometer, which displayed four large pale red characters.
"Junior Fighter"
"Yi Qiang, a disciple of the Yi family, is fourteen years old, has reached the junior fighter, and is the most talented disciple of the Yi family he has seen since the old man's test. The Third Elder nodded with satisfaction and looked at the list in his hand.
"Next, Yi Tian. Regarding Yi Qiangwei's move to step down, the three elders next to him didn't care and acquiesced in his behavior. The list of tests was drawn up by the three elders himself, and he deliberately put Yi Tian's name behind Yi Qiang, just to let the sensation caused by Yi Qiang becoming a fighter completely overwhelm Yi Tian, even if it is three stars a year, this year's fourteen years old is only the cultivation of the power of six-star warfare, and among the young disciples tested by the Yi family, there are no less than ten. He was still excluded from the core disciples.
For Yi Tian's test, everyone automatically separated from each other, and most of them had heard that Yi Tian's cultivation had increased dramatically, but few believed it, could a three-year-one-star waste suddenly become a three-star one-year? In their hearts, they had already regarded Yi Tian as the object of mockery in the annual test, and Yi Tian was the son of the patriarch, and their identity was originally inferior to Yi Tian, stepping on Yi Tian's head made them feel more fulfilled.
In the eyes of everyone or mocking, or disdainful, or gloating, or suspicious, Yi Tian slowly walked to the high platform, and gently put his hand on the dynamometer as he did last year.
A golden glow.
"The power of war, Seven Stars!"
