Bai Xiaotian's figure suddenly stood up from the chair, but there was a cold light in his eyes.

"Shu Jue...... What you say is almost certain! This answer is really amazing.

Even if there is only a twenty percent possibility, it still cannot be taken lightly. No matter which one it was, he couldn't help but be unconcerned.

"Sixty percent! Only 60% sure! Shu Jue pondered for a moment, and then said categorically.

It sounds like 60% certainty is very little. But you know, Shu Jue didn't get much information.

As he said before, he didn't even know if the other party was a man or a woman...... Sixty percent of the purpose of determining the other party is already a very terrifying calculation ability.

Besides, sixty percent - whether the other party's target is the Izumo Empire or Cangzhou, it is enough to pay attention to it.

"No wonder! No wonder the family said to wait and see, it turned out that they were not sure what the other party's ultimate goal was...... I'm afraid that this mysterious force is not just against me, Bai Xiaotian! ”

Bai Xiaotian sneered, and then suddenly sank his face, and then his expression was inexplicably dignified.

"Shu Jue-you say, is it possible to ......" The words were not finished, but Shu Jue's calm expression suddenly fluctuated violently, as if water droplets had splashed into the oil.

"City Lord—this conjecture is very unlikely! Besides, you only know a little about what happened hundreds of years ago from your family, but you don't know anything about it......"

Shu Jue shook his head, but he didn't answer Bai Xiaotian's words directly, because he had only heard about the earth-shattering event that spread to Kyushu a hundred years ago, and he didn't know the context of it.

"That's right! We can't care about these things......" Bai Xiaotian sighed helplessly, such a sword king, his expression at the moment was extremely helpless.

"Let's hope – what happened hundreds of years ago won't happen again...... Fortunately, hundreds of years ago, countless powerhouses in Zhongzhou for three days had already killed the culprit of that incident on the top of Taiyue Mountain! ”

"And, as it stands...... Their power is not very strong, otherwise, how can they care about the background of my Bai family, I am afraid that it is also because they are afraid that their identities will be exposed after they do it! ”

Bai Xiaotian smiled coldly, but said indifferently.

"Not bad! City Lord - but this matter is important after all, you ......" Shu Jue nodded, and then spoke.

"I have my own plans...... Shu Jue, send someone to Izumo City and tell the old man...... Cangzhou, I'm afraid it's going to change! Bai Xiaotian's words were extremely heavy, "I just don't know, the old man doesn't know what the doorway is......"

"Yes!" Shu Jue gave up his hand in response, and then saw Bai Xiaotian sitting at the desk pondering, and immediately retreated.

There was silence in the room, only the curling sandalwood smoke dispersed, and I don't know how long it took for Bai Xiaotian to let out a long sigh and break up the silence......

"Hope—not the one hundreds of years ago, as I guessed. Judging from the records, it was terrifying...... Don't give birth again, otherwise, this Cangzhou, or even Kyushu......"

……

The night was hazy, but the thousands of lights in Baiyun City flickered again.

The wind is bleak, and there will be desolate people who will long in the night.

Lin Shen looked at the sky silently, even though it was only full of night.

His heart was silent at the moment, as if he was immersed in the long night.

The night was so deep, and the sky was pitch black...... It's so far away, but it's even more distant at a glance.

This inky night, far away, seems to have no borders...... The pitch-black night is deeper than the black.

"Tomorrow is the selection competition, but I don't know what I can learn in that Xiangling Academy!" A faint smile appeared on the corner of Lin Shen's mouth, he was not worried about whether he could get the quota.

Nine out of ten things are safe, and he doesn't need to worry about it at all.

"Boy! I don't care if I can learn anything...... You don't want this kind of mentality! Ou Lao's voice did suddenly sound, and Lin Shen's eyes were filled with doubt.

"No matter what the situation...... You can't have full faith! No, it's not! Faith is needed, but not overdone! For example, you have the mentality that you think you can win? ”

"By what? On your own? Or are you putting all your hopes on me? There was a sense of reproach in Ou Lao's words, and he clearly felt the teenager's disdain for this competition just now.

"You need to know...... This is a competition between the six major cities! Although you can only participate in the swordsman rank, there will be no shortage of strong ones! ”

"As Na Shubai said, what if you meet someone with very thick hole cards?"

"Hmph, boy, let me tell you, this time the old man won't make a move!" Ou Lao snorted, and then said.

"Huh!?" Lin Shen's expression immediately flashed with a wry smile and helplessness.

"Ahhh The old man said that he would not make a move...... This time it's all up to you! It doesn't matter if you lose, as long as you can get that spot! ”

"Teacher, why are you like this! I'm not proud, I'm confident in your strength! Lin Shen hurriedly explained, but Ou Lao was indifferent.

"Humph! I don't care - I can't get used to the stinky fart you kid looked like just now, and this time, I'm not going to make a move! ”

There was a wry smile in the corner of Lin Shen's eyes, but he didn't say anything more.

It's okay if Ou Lao doesn't make a move...... After all, if he even needs the help of the old man to obtain the qualification to enter Xiangling Academy for further study, then he doesn't need to participate in the competition, just give up.

"Grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass, if you want to drink the pipa, immediately urge ......"

Lin Shen looked up, but the hazy moon was half revealed from the clouds. It seemed very vague, looking at the unclear string moon, but the young man shook his head and chanted poetry.

……

"Brother Lin-it's so early!" Shu Bai was wearing a white robe, but he greeted Lin Shen with a spring breeze on his face.

“…… Today is the competition, so naturally you have to get up early! How about going to Baiyun Square now? Or wait a while? Lin Shen nodded, and then asked with a smile.

"Let's go! Anyway, the old man's seven children...... It's just that my seventh child has nothing to do, and the others are basically on the right path, but there is no one else on the same road with me, so let's go first! ”

Shu Bai smiled self-deprecatingly, and then walked towards the gate step by step.

"Brother Shu is a talented person who has passed through heaven and earth, and he will definitely achieve something in the future, so why care about temporary gains and losses!" Lin Shen patted him on the shoulder, and then said.

Brother Lin praised it...... Shu Bai's talent, compared to you, can be said to be one in the sky and the other on the ground! Shu Bai laughed at himself, after the last competition, he had been completely convinced by Lin Shen.

……

Baiyun Square is located in the middle of Baiyun City.

Fang Yuan couldn't remember, at least Lin Shen followed Shu Bai into Baiyun Square.

I can't see where the border is at all, I am afraid that there are only hundreds of miles in range, but this is not an important place.

Because it was just early in the morning, the square was already crowded with people.

And Shu Bai pulled Lin Shen to the side, lowered his head, and said to Lin Shen-

"Brother Lin...... It's about to be the end of the day, but I'm afraid it's about to start! ”

"Oh? When will it end? Lin Shen nodded, and it was about six to eight o'clock in the morning. It's not too early, but I'm afraid it's just waiting for everyone to come to the competition.

"It won't end until the time comes!" Shu Bai did not hesitate and gave the answer.

"By the way, there are no requirements for this competition?" Lin Shen is a little strange, if this is the case, then why does the Shu family use this as a favor?

“…… There are no requirements for the people of the Izumo Empire, as long as they can prove their identity. But Brother Lin ...... You're just not from the Izumo Empire, right? Shu Bai smiled faintly, although it was a question, his voice was categorical.

"That's right!" Lin Shen nodded, knowing a little, so he didn't ask again.

Strange to say, this square is above the ...... Lin Shen looked at it, not to mention hundreds of thousands of people. However, it does not give people a noisy feeling, firstly, because the square is very large, and it is basically not crowded at all.

Second, it's because these people are cultivators. In such occasions, there will be no loud and loud noise.

So it's also well organized...... Everyone put their eyes on the ten-zhang high platform in the middle, waiting for the appearance of the city lord of Baiyun City.

……

The time is coming.

A sturdy figure suddenly came from the sky.

Standing in the void, it turned out to be a Sword King level powerhouse!

Bai Xiaotian's figure almost instantaneously swept to the high platform that was more than ten zhang high.

He waved his sleeves suddenly, and then sat down on a stone chair carved out of the high platform.

……

"See the city lord!"

The sound of the mountains and tsunamis gathered into one.

Lin Shen was taken aback by this huge formation, and hurriedly bowed slightly.

This is a kind of etiquette, which has nothing to do with his temperament, so it can't be regarded as Lin Shen's cowardice.

And Shu Bai looked at the majestic man sitting on the stone chair on the high platform with a look of reverence.

……

"Well, excuse me! Triennial tryouts! In my Baiyun City, more than one million people participate every year...... It can be seen that I am in the Izumo Empire, and there are many talents! And this time, there are 1.5 million participants, and I am very relieved! ”

Although he already knew that the number of participants would not be small, Lin Shen was still shocked.

That Bai Xiaotian's voice was extremely majestic, and the Sword King rank powerhouse ...... As soon as he opened his mouth, it was enough to spread a radius of thousands of miles, so the people in the square, no matter near or far, heard his voice.

"Then - no more nonsense! 5,000 rings! In the first game, a total of 300 people participated in each ring! Draw lots to decide your own ring...... Finally, the remaining tenths move on to the next round! ”

This was unexpected, Lin Shen looked at Shu Bai, but the latter nodded at him.

"Brother Lin...... This first game is to sift down some guys who are fishing in troubled waters! So just go up and make sure you're in the ring! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Xiaotian's voice sounded again.

"The Literati Competition...... It was held over there, 100,000 people participated, and in the end there were only 20,000 people left! Although it is a way of writing, you can also be brilliant in the future! ”

Bai Xiaotian's finger pointed to the huge houses in the distance, on the edge of Baiyun Square.

"Brother Lin, come on! I'll go first! Shu Bai encouraged Lin Shen, and then walked to the huge houses together with many people who began to move.

"En-" Lin Shen nodded, and then glanced at the place where the lot was drawn.

Seeing that all the hundreds of places where the lottery was drawn, they were all surrounded by water, and Lin Shen didn't have the leisure to squeeze it, so fortunately he stood in place and waited.
