Chapter 216: The Reward of Terror
Three months passed in a flash, and in the blink of an eye, the vacation was coming to an end, and Shen Li and Shen Mengran were about to step into the return journey of Taibai Academy.
Shen Li originally planned to stay for a while longer, because there were still five or six days left during the vacation, and besides, there was not much for him to return to the academy.
But before he could stay, a person suddenly came to his home, it was an academy from Taibai students, saying that the Great Elder Yu Feng wanted him to return to the courtyard immediately.
"Elder Yu Feng, why?" Shen Li wondered, not knowing why Great Elder Yu Feng was suddenly in such a hurry to let him rush over.
"I don't know the specifics, it's a big deal anyway, many elite students in the academy have already returned to the academy in advance, and Elder Yu Feng asked you to go back quickly. The student said.
"Okay. Shen Li nodded, Great Elder Yu Feng should be the person he is most familiar with in Taibai Academy except for Su You, he has always taken good care of him, since he let him go so urgently, there must indeed be something important.
After Shen Li said goodbye to his family, he followed the student directly back to the academy, and then went straight to Yu Feng's residence.
"Coming back?"
Seeing Shen Li returning, Yu Feng stood up from the table.
"Yes, why is the Great Elder urging me to return to the hospital in such a hurry?" asked Shen Li.
"You haven't heard anything about it?" Yu Feng asked with a little strangeness.
"No, I don't. Shen Li was stunned and replied.
"You really don't hear anything outside the window, you don't even feel such a big movement. Yu Feng shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Well, the Great Elder should speak quickly. Shen Li said embarrassedly.
"Half a month ago, the Tianwu Dynasty issued an order that a huge trial would be held, and this trial was different from the past, because it was facing the entire Tianwu Dynasty and the attached [***] royal realm, and the scale was unprecedented. ”
"Tianwu Dynasty?" Shen Li was taken aback, the longer he stayed outside, the more he could appreciate the terrifying energy contained in a dynasty, a Taibai royal realm was almost no different from a remote city compared to a dynasty. And the scale of a trial announced by the emperor himself is naturally beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
"Yes, this trial will be held in seven days, and at that time, all the young geniuses of the Tianwu Dynasty and the [***] Imperial Territory will go there to compete, and our Taibai Imperial Leader will also send our representative team, and you, as the hottest genius of the Taibai Academy now, will naturally go too. Yu Feng said.
"Win glory for the country?" Shen Li was stunned, a little reluctant in his heart, because the scale was large, but it didn't seem to have much to do with him.
"Not for the country, but for yourself. Don't tell me you don't want to go, because you don't know what this trial represents. Some time ago, the Imperial Dynasty had already announced the basic rules, and at that time, all the warriors participating in the trial would be divided into twenty divisions and compete at the same time. The top 10 in each division will receive a huge reward, the dynasty will personally confer the title of earl, hereditary replacement, and a reward of 100,000 taels of gold. ”
"Earl?" Shen Li's eyes widened, this reward is too heavy, you must know that in this world, the aristocratic system is hierarchical, and every step of promotion is as difficult as ascending to the sky, such as his Shen family, who has worked hard for nearly a hundred years, is still only a quasi-nobleman, not even a real nobleman.
And now if Shen Li breaks into the top ten in the competition area, the noble seat of his family will be directly promoted to the earl, and he will cross three levels in a row, which can be said to be unheard of, and become the family with the highest seat in the Taibai royal collar except for the royal family, which is far from being comparable to the current status, and is almost a step to the sky.
"I can't believe it? Tell you, it's just an appetizer in the front, and the one in the back is really valuable. Yu Feng smiled mysteriously and continued: "The top ten, each person will get two four-grade runes, one of which is a surname rune, which can be forged runes. There are one hundred low-grade spirit stones, ten medium-grade spirit stones, and the role of the spirit stones, you know. ”
Shen Li was silent, as a talisman master, he couldn't be clearer about what the four grades represented. If each four-grade rune appeared on the auction floor, it would be at least a high price of 100,000 taels of gold, which was equivalent to millions of taels of silver. And that surname rune, that is, the kind of rune that Tang Wanyu wanted to buy before, is more valuable, and only a king-level rune can depict it.
And the spirit stone, not to mention, after the martial artist reaches the true martial realm, the cultivation will become more difficult, and it is too difficult to increase the strength just by absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth.
The spirit stone absorbs the essence of the moon, contains the spiritual power of heaven and earth, and the heaven and earth vitality contained in it is the greatest tonic for martial artists to cultivate.
But after all, the spirit stone is a heaven and earth artifact, too precious, the spirit stone is divided into five grades, lower grade, middle grade, upper grade, best grade and heavenly grade, even if it is the lowest grade spirit stone, it is a high price of 10,000 taels of silver in the market, and it is not at all something that ordinary martial artists can afford.
And now, the top ten in each competition area will get 100 low-grade spirit stones, and there are even 10 middle-grade spirit stones, which are worth ten times that of lower-grade spirit stones, the extent of which can be imagined, no wonder it will make many geniuses crazy.
With these rewards, not to mention those warriors who are strapped for cash, even the rich and noble children of a big family will go crazy for it.
"How?" asked Yu Feng with a smile.
"It's tempting. Shen Li had to admit that if he got these more than 100 spirit stones, his cultivation speed would be ten times faster, almost a thousand miles.
"This is tempting? Then let me tell you, the most tempting reward, I haven't said yet, among the martial artists who went to participate in the trial this time, there are many princes of the royal leadership or descendants of the big families of the imperial dynasty, which of them is not the pride of the sky, they have too many cultivation resources, if these are the only ones, can they take such a big risk to go? What they want is that last reward. ”
"What?" Shen Li felt that he was almost speechless, a reward that was more valuable than all the rewards in front of him combined, what the hell was that?
"The last reward, join the Immortal Gate and seek the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth!" Yu Feng's eyes suddenly glowed with an astonishing look, and the word Xianmen was extremely heavy.
"Immortal Gate?" Shen Li's Adam's apple suddenly rolled.
"Did Master Su ever mention the Immortal Gate to you?"
"Nope. ”
"And how much do you know about it?"
"I just know that it is a very powerful sect. Shen Li replied honestly, the only time he had heard this name was from the mouths of other students before, and he still remembered the look in the eyes of that person when he said this name.
