Chapter 5 Stargazing Conference
The sentence "why" moved many people present, and even some big people, in disbelief.
They looked at this thin young man in a family uniform, and it was unimaginable that a small family member dared to question Wuhou and Ji Wuzhao in public, where did this courage come from?
Xu Que stood in place, his body hidden under his robe, trembling slightly, he knew that if he opened this mouth today, it would mean that he would probably lose that opportunity forever, and even the Wuhou Mansion would not keep him anymore.
But it doesn't matter anymore, if you can't get the Replenishing Star Stone today, and you won't have the opportunity to cultivate again in three years, you are doomed to a mediocre life, so what's the difference between staying in Wuhou Mansion and not being in charge?
Since the ending is the same, why don't you stand up and give it a go?
He wanted to take advantage of the situation, with the presence of many big figures and the people of Wuhou City, to force Wuhou not to dare to refuse him.
The originally solemn stargazing conference also became a little turbulent at a moment, and the atmosphere was very weird, and many people's eyes fell on Wuhou and Ji Wuzhao.
Wu Hou's face was very ugly, and his tiger eyes were almost about to breathe fire, but this time, he didn't use coercion to deal with Xu Que again, just sat on the chair and was silent.
Ji Wuzhao's eyebrows frowned again, there was something strange in his eyes, obviously he didn't expect that this inconspicuous little family would dare to speak like this.
In the center of the square, the young people who were waiting for the body test were also slightly moved, Ji Ling'er turned even pale, turned around, and looked at Xu Que in shock, is this still the lazy and brazen little scoundrel in her memory? How dare he?
The big people present had different faces, bowed their heads and whispered, and some people looked at Wuhou with a playful face, quite gloating.
In fact, at the stargazing conference, it is not uncommon to compete for places, but at least the two sides of the competition are children of noble backgrounds, and now a small family member has come out, which inevitably makes people feel weird, and this family is still from Wuhou Mansion.
"Actually, this little family is not bad, iron-clad, and has a meaningless heart. There was a kind old man who nodded slightly, and there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
Another old woman next to her shook her head and said in a low voice: "It's a pity that he was born to the wrong family, if he is from an extraordinary background, he will have achievements in the future, but the reality is that he has a low status and is only a member of the Wuhou Mansion, so it is reckless to do so, and if he questions Wuhou in public, he will not live long." β
After hearing this, the old man smiled slightly, and said: "It's not reckless, if only Wuhou himself was present today, this young man would definitely not be like this, the reason why he dared to speak was because we were here and the people were there." But it's really a pity, just because of this, he can't get the Star Toner Stone. β
On the periphery of the square, many ordinary people also whispered at this moment.
"I didn't expect this little family to be qualified to participate in the conference, but now that he has torn his face and offended Wuhou, the opportunity is no longer possible. β
"Joke, do you think he will have a chance if he doesn't say those words? Don't look at who the young man who occupies his quota is, although he is not from our Wuhou City, but the origin is definitely not simple, how can he fight for a small family?"
"Then there will be a chance in at least three years, and it's hard to say whether you can survive now. β
"Fart, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, this little family looks like he is already fourteen or fifteen years old, and he will enter adulthood in three years, and the time to open the Dantian Star Mansion has long passed, even if he has qualifications, he will be exhausted, at least I have never heard of anyone who can open the Dantian Star Mansion after he becomes an adult. β
"Don't talk as if you know everything, why don't you become a monk too?"
"What's the matter, if you don't accept it, how can I, Long Aotian, be afraid of you?"
"Hehe, who is afraid of whom, I, Zhao Ritian, am not a vegetarian. β
......
The discussion gradually sublimated, and slowly turned into a red-faced scolding war, everyone expressed their opinions, and tried to prove that what they said was right, the voice became louder and louder, and the whole square suddenly became noisy and boiling, like a vegetable market.
But there is one thing that no one denies. They all thought that Xu Que's place in the conference was occupied by the youngest strange boy.
"Wuhou!"
At this moment, a flat but bright voice sounded in the square.
As soon as this sound came out, some people inside and outside the arena were attracted to attention, and the sound of constant quarrels finally subsided, because the person who spoke was the strange boy.
He was dressed in white and walked out slowly, gentle and elegant, with a faint smile on his face, and his eyes were empty.
The quarrel around slowly subsided in an instant, and the strange young man walked up to Wuhou and said: "Wuhou, before I came, I didn't hear that this place has a master, and now it seems that there may be a misunderstanding in it, which makes Wuhou's Mansion embarrassed." β
When Wu Hou heard this, a trace of discoloration flashed in his eyes, and he glanced at the old man in black beside him, but the other party's eyes were closed as if he was half asleep.
This made Wuhou couldn't help frowning, he looked at the young man, his tone was calm, and said: "Si Wenxian's nephew is polite, this matter is the fault of the Wuhou Mansion, and the discipline of the family in the mansion is not strict, but the virtuous nephew can rest assured that he will continue to participate in the stargazing conference, and there is no need to worry." β
After hearing this, the young man's brows furrowed slightly.
He didn't care about Xu Que's feelings, but everyone disliked him, thinking that he relied on his identity to win the quota of this little family, which was an unwarranted insult to him, and it was also not good for the Si family.
"Wuhou, my nephew doesn't want others to gossip more, since this family member of your mansion is qualified to participate in the stargazing conference, let him participate, if it is not a cultivation physique, it will also save everyone trouble. Of course, if it is all measured that the physique can be cultivated, then follow the rules, and I will fight with him fairly to compete for the ownership of the Star Replenishing Stone. Si Wen, a strange young man, said tepidly, it seemed that he was proposing a building for Wu Hou, but in fact it was an undoubted request.
There was a slight dislike on Wuhou's face, if it was only based on his identity, it would indeed be difficult to deal with this young man, but now he is also a father and daughter, Ji Wuzhao's physique makes people in the imperial city pay attention to it, and his status as a Wuhou has also risen, so he is not really afraid of the Si family.
But I have to say that since the young master of this mansion is willing to make such concessions to solve the problem, and also solves the problem of Wuhou Mansion, it is even better.
In the end, Wu Hou nodded and agreed: "Okay, since the virtuous nephew has such a generous heart, I will follow what Si Wenxian's nephew said." β
......
Xu Que's heart finally settled, and he showed a smile, he succeeded.
He also knew that Wuhou would definitely not be able to spare him after the conference, but it didn't matter, as long as he could measure his physique, get the Replenishing Star Stone, and be accepted by some big people here, Wuhou would not be able to find him to settle the score.
"The hour has come, the stargazing conference has begun!" Wu Hou said in a deep voice, his sharp gaze swept over Xu Que intentionally or unintentionally.
"Dad, I'll preside over it this time. At this time, Ji Wuzhao spoke.
Wu Hou's face jumped slightly, he didn't say anything, and nodded in agreement.
Ji Wuzhao got up and left her seat, her toes tapped the ground, her slender figure suddenly took off, and she swept in front of Xu Que and several other teenagers with great lightness, and in mid-air, she raised her white arm, and a glow of light was entangled, like a fairy in the dust.
At the same time, there was a delicate ring between the green jade fingers, and then a small brown stone swept out of thin air, growing when it saw the wind, and instantly turned into a two-meter-high boulder.
Xu Que was shocked, he participated in the stargazing conference for the first time, and found that this was the real magic power of the monk, in addition to the old madman of the day, Ji Wuzhao's hand opened his eyes.
As for the brown boulder, he knew very well what it did.
According to his inquiry, this boulder is a kind of extraterrestrial meteorite, which will be present at every stargazing conference, which is used to measure their physique.
Bang!
At this time, the meteorite landed steadily, and Ji Wuzhao also landed next to the meteorite.
Her expression was flat, as if she did not eat the fireworks of the world, her beautiful eyes swept over the few teenagers present, and her lips opened lightly: "Before measuring the physique, I want to remind you that once the physique is measured, you must take the Xingtian Stone within seven days to open up the Dantian Star Mansion, otherwise Xinghua will be lost, and there is no hope of cultivation in this life, if someone wants to quit, it is still too late at this moment." β
Xu Que was stunned in his heart, Ji Wuzhao was obviously saying this to him, reminding him that even if he measured a cultivable physique, without a star replenishment stone, it would still be in vain after all. But since he had come to this point, he had no intention of retreating, the way out had already been lost, and there was no possibility of cultivation after three years.
Seeing that Xu Que was silent, Ji Wuzhao shook his head, and didn't say more, a faint purple light emanated from his hand, and gently brushed the brown boulder, and the whole boulder suddenly shone brightly, and there was a kind of glow lingering on the surface, showing a colorful color.
The crowd outside the venue watched with relish, while admiring Ji Wuzhao's fairy-like posture, and on the other hand, they could open their eyes and see the supernatural powers.
"Come forward one by one in order, just put your hands on the meteorite as I did. Ji Wuzhao said.
A young man standing at the front did not hesitate, full of confidence, and walked up directly, stretching out his hand to pat the meteorite.
"Boom!"
In an instant, a dazzling and magnificent glow erupted from the meteorite, rising into the sky, illuminating a dark night sky in the sky, and then a little starlight appeared, intertwined into a line, and gradually turned into the shape of a beast.
Everyone looked up at the same time and looked at the stars, which was stargazing.
"Heavenly Dog Astral Body?" An old man recognized this astrological sign, slightly moved, and although the voice was small, it happened to fall into the ears of Xu Que not far away.
He was also looking at this strange scene, and found that the beast was shaped like a cat, but its head was like an ape, which was very strange.
In the middle seat, the black-clothed old man who had been sitting beside Wu Hou and had been silent for a long time, and his eyes were closed and he suddenly raised his eyelids slightly, nodded and commented: "The qualifications are good, there are rumors in ancient times, this star physique has been cultivated to the peak, and it can eat the sun and the moon, so there is a saying that the heavenly dog eats the sun and the heavenly dog eats the moon." β
Wuhou also nodded lightly: "This son is the youngest son of the Liu family, and his father is also this kind of astral body, so he inherited it." β
The physique of the stars has always been said to inherit by blood, and if both parents are monks, then their heirs also have a great chance of having cultivation qualifications. This is also the reason why civilians are not qualified to participate in the stargazing conference, some people have tried to calculate, almost 100,000 ordinary people, it is difficult to find a person with cultivation qualifications, so future generations no longer spend time to test people from ordinary backgrounds.
Therefore, Xu Que's troubles this time are redundant in the eyes of many people, and he also offended Wuhou, and he is destined to lose more than he gains.
"Liu Sheng thanked Fairy Ji!" The young man of the Heavenly Dog Star Body was full of joy, and he hugged his fists and thanked him, then turned to leave and sat down on the empty chair next to him.
Subsequently, some of the bigwigs of the Star Courtyard here moved their lips one after another, transmitted a message to him in the air, and began to invite him to worship under their Star Courtyard.
When Xu Que saw this, he looked away, no longer caring about which academy the young man would choose to devote himself to in the end, because the second person to take the test was Ji Ling'er.
Ji Ling'er glanced back at Xu Que, pursed her lips, and walked forward, but she didn't stretch out her hand, but approached Ji Wuzhao's side and whispered a word.
Xu Que couldn't hear it, but he saw that Ji Wuzhao's face changed suddenly, with a little surprise, and turned into Yan SΓΉ again, and glanced at Xu Que from a distance.
Xu Que was stunned for a moment, not knowing what was going on.
"No way. I saw Ji Wuzhao shaking his head lightly at Ji Ling'er, his lips moved lightly and said a word, and then a white light flashed between his hands, forcibly pulled up Ji Ling'er's little hand, and slapped it directly at the meteorite.
