Four months later.

On the sixth day of October, Shenmu City.

The streets are full of people and bustling.

Lu Fan and Liu Mei also walked on the street, wandering around.

The big competition is set in Shenmu City.

Two days later, the first round of testing will take place.

Lu Fan and Liu Mei arrived early and lived in the trading house Tiankai here.

It is also called Longyuan Commercial Bank.

Walking on the road, Lu Fan opened the properties panel.

In a few months, Lu Fan's strength has improved slightly

Now his true strength is equivalent to having just entered the Mahayana period.

And that's not even counting his cards.

If you add those hole cards, even in the face of the Mahayana period powerhouse, he is not worthy.

In particular, the nearly 8,000 distributable attributes give him enough confidence to face anyone.

And Liu Mei, driven by him, has also grown by leaps and bounds.

Now he has successfully advanced to the transcendent realm.

"Let's go, let's go back."

After wandering around the street for a while, Liu Mei felt a little bored and gently pulled Lu Fan's clothes.

She now devotes all her mind to cultivation, just like Lu Fan at the beginning.

Today's Lu Fan has changed, and he is leisurely every day.

You can even get a good night's sleep.

It's not that Lu Fan has relaxed his requirements for himself, but that he has cultivated all his exercises and martial arts to perfection.

There's no need to work as hard as before.

What's more, even if he doesn't do anything, the exercises can work on their own, improving his cultivation.

And the effect is not bad.

Therefore, he is very idle now, and he is still in the mood to go out shopping.

Liu Mei was in a hurry, anxious to catch up with him.

"Okay."

Lu Fan also felt bored, and returned to Longyuan Commercial House with Liu Mei.

The two deliberately chose No. 21 on the sixth floor, which was the same as the previous room number.

Entering the room, Liu Mei sat cross-legged on the bed and quickly entered the state of cultivation.

Lu Fan made a pot of tea and sat there leisurely drinking tea.

After a while, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Knock knock!"

"Who?"

Lu Fan frowned, he had specially instructed him before, except for delivering food, not to disturb at other times.

"It's me."

A familiar voice rang out.

"Huh?"

Lu Fan's heart jumped, and he quickly got up and went to open the door.

I saw Wei He standing outside the door, looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Brother Wei?"

Lu Fan was surprised and delighted, "Why are you?" ”

"Haha!"

Wei He laughed out loud and gently patted Lu Fan's shoulder, "Let's go in and talk." ”

"Okay, please come in."

Lu Fan invited Wei He into the house.

The two came to the tea table and sat down, and Lu Fan poured Wei He a cup of tea, "Big brother, you drink tea." ”

Liu Mei was awakened, came to Lu Fan's side, looked at Wei He a few times, and asked, "Who is this?" ”

"He is Wei He, Brother Wei."

Lu Fan introduced with a smile: "This is Liu Mei, from the Liu family of the Great Zhou. ”

"It turned out to be Senior Wei."

Liu Mei hugged his fist to Wei He and said: "When I was in the Great Zhou, I admired the name of my predecessors for a long time, and in this immortal cultivation world, I heard Lu Fan often mention you. ”

"Are you the little girl of the Liu family?"

Wei He smiled and asked, "Is Liu Qingyang good?" ”

"My ancestor is very good."

Liu Mei smiled: "Thank you seniors for your concern." ”

"Hmm."

Wei He nodded, "You go to cultivate, I'll talk to Brother Lu." ”

"Okay."

Liu Mei returned to the bed, sat down cross-legged, and began to settle down.

"Big brother, where have you been in the past two years?"

Lu Fan calculated the time, and it had been two full years since Wei He disappeared.

He asked a barrage of questions: "What happened back then?" Why are you here all of a sudden? ”

"It's about the big competition."

Wei He picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and then said unhurriedly: "I arrived at the Longyuan Commercial Bank that day, and I happened to meet the Commercial Bank. ”

"He told me that in two years there will be a big competition, and the top ten can enter the ancient battlefield."

"When I heard it, my heart was immediately moved."

"He also said that he was very optimistic about me, but with my strength at that time, it was still a little difficult to get the top 10 in the big competition."

"However, he has prepared a place of trial for me, as long as I retreat and cultivate there, for two years, it will be enough for my strength to go further."

"But I didn't worry about you, so I mentioned you to him."

"He said it's okay, leave me, maybe you can grow faster."

"And he'll take care of you for me."

"If you run into trouble that can't be solved, he'll help you."

"So I said yes."

Speaking of this, Wei He smiled, "I entered the Land of Trials and practiced in retreat for two years, and I didn't come out until a few days ago. ”

"I've heard a lot of rumors about you, and then I know that your strength has surpassed mine."

"Good boy!"

Wei He patted Lu Fan lightly, "It's really yours!" ”

"Big brother is too modest, I'm far worse than you."

Lu Fan felt the strength of the other party, and asked tentatively, "Big brother won't enter the land fairy realm, right?" ”

"Not really."

Wei He shook his head, "It's still far away." ”

"Oh?"

Lu Fan guessed: "That is the peak of the Heaven and Man Realm?" I think your strength is no worse than that of a business house. ”

"Sort of."

Wei He smiled: "But I'm not as good as Shang Xingtian." ”

"The peak of the realm of heaven and man, compared with the Great Perfection of the Merge Period, it is still a little worse."

"But it should be stronger than in the late stage of the merger."

"I see that your strength has reached at least the middle stage of the merger."

"I didn't expect that in just two years, you have grown to such a point."

"I thought you wouldn't be able to make it to this big competition."

"But I didn't think that not only would you be able to participate, but you might also be able to get a good ranking."

"It's a bit difficult to get the first place, but it shouldn't be a problem to get into the top 10."

Speaking of this, Wei He looked at Lu Fan with a smile on his face, "Next year, our brothers will join hands to enter the ancient battlefield and take a good look for those treasures from the ancients." ”

"Big brother, do you know what kind of strength the monks who participated in the big competition this time?"

Lu Fan was a little curious, "Can anyone surpass you?" ”

"I inquired about Shang Xingtian in advance, and he told me about the geniuses of various sects."

Wei He said: "Before you appeared, the most dazzling genius in the Immortal Cultivation Realm came from Tianchuang Sect, this person's name is Song Yanqiu, and it is said that his strength has reached the Great Perfection of the Merge Period, even if I am not necessarily this person's opponent." ”

"Hmm."

Lu Fan nodded and asked, "What else?" ”

"There is also Su Xiaomo, she is from the Yunmu Sect, it is said that she is the strength of the late stage of the combination, and she is also an extremely strong opponent."

Without waiting for Lu Fan to ask, Wei He continued: "Then there is Ye Wentian, from Huixin Hall, who is also a powerhouse in the late stage of the merger. ”

"These three should be our strongest opponents."

"As for the others, the strongest is only in the middle stage of the merger, and the threat should not be great."

"Of course, this is only strength on the surface."

"Actually, maybe it's much more."

"So, we can't take any opponent lightly."

Wei He said: "After all, this is the realm of cultivating immortals, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, not to be underestimated. It is said that there are many immortal cultivation families that have also produced a lot of geniuses, but they have not become famous. ”

"I know."

Lu Fan knew very well in his heart that the rumored strength could not be taken seriously, and could only be used as a reference.

Just like him, in the eyes of outsiders, he is only in the middle stage of the merger at most, but in fact, even if he faces a strong person in the merger period, he can defeat the opponent.

The same is true for Wei He, although he is only at the peak of the Heavenly and Human Realm, if he is paired with a strong physical body, he may not be able to win against the strong person of the Great Perfection in the Merge Period.

Thinking of this, Lu Fan smiled and said, "Brother Wei, with your strength, you can at least enter the top three, and you have a good chance to win the first place." ”

"I'll try my best."

Wei He's expression suddenly turned grim, "I know, brother, you want that god-level exercise, and I want to too." ”

"Don't worry, if I really have a chance to get the first place, the god-level exercises are ours."

"Let's practice together."

As he spoke, Wei He turned his gaze to Lu Fan, "After all, your talent far surpasses mine, I really want to see how far you can grow in the future?" ”

"Thank you, big brother."

Lu Fan's heart swelled with warmth.

Wei He is simply good at digging out his heart for him.

Even the god-level exercises are willing to share with him.

He will always remember this friendship and will find a way to repay it.

"We brothers, why are you still talking about these out-of-the-box words?"

Wei He smiled: "I am happier than you when I see your growth." ”

"yes, don't say those kind words."

Lu Fan added tea to Wei He and smiled, "Big brother, we will have to have a few drinks in a while." ”

"That's nature."

The two talked, and several young girls knocked on the door and came in, bringing the food and drinks.

Lu Fan and Wei He came to the wine table and sat down, Liu Mei stopped cultivating and sat next to Lu Fan.

Pouring a full bottle of wine, Lu Fan picked up his glass, "Big brother, I respect you." ”

"Senior, I also respect you."

Liu Mei also raised his wine glass.

"Okay."

Wei He smiled and raised his glass, "Come on, let's go together." ”

"Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

……

……

Two days later.

In the city of Shenmu, the proving ground.

Countless young monks are lining up to test.

Lu Fan and Wei He were also among them.

The two walked together, slowly moving with the group.

Dozens of teams are carried out at the same time, and the front foot has just left, and the back foot has been filled.

The line has always been so long.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Lu Fan seemed to have returned to the past, when Long Yingwei was selected.

It's just that the soldiers at the beginning have been replaced by the monks of today.

It's much bigger than before.

The strength is incomparable.

"Next!"

With a shout, Lu Fan and Wei He entered a stone room at the same time.

There were five or six people inside, as well as two test spirit stones.

The two of them each found a spirit stone and stood in front of the spirit stone.

The person in charge of testing Lu Fan was a middle-aged man, he took out a jade talisman, looked at Lu Fan, and asked, "Name?" ”

Lu Fan said truthfully: "Lu Fan." ”

"Huh?"

The man was stunned and looked at Lu Fan deeply.

Everyone else also turned their gaze to Lu Fan, their eyes full of curiosity.

Soon came back to his senses, and the man reminded: "You put your hand on the spirit stone, and I said you can take it away." ”

"Okay."

Lu Fan put his hand on the spirit stone as he said.

The next moment, the spirit stone emitted a colorful light, dazzling.

"That's it."

The man nodded and said, "Lu Fan, male, twenty-one years old, in the middle stage of refining. ”

"You hold this jade talisman, and you must hold him in the big competition in the future, so you can participate."

As he spoke, the man handed the jade talisman to Lu Fan.

Lu Fan took the jade talisman and put it into the storage ring casually.

At this time, Wei He's test results came from the other side.

"Wei He, male, sixty-five years old, has a great consummation period."

Hearing this result, Lu Fan was not surprised, but the others were shocked.

They all thought they had heard it wrong, and they were stunned for a long time before they came back to their senses.

"It turned out to be the Great Perfection of the Merge Period?"

"That's amazing!"

"Only sixty-five years old!"

"With such a talent, it's not weaker than Song Yanqiu."

"In the future, I will definitely be able to enter the Mahayana period."

"It's even possible to make the cut before the age of 100."

"It's too strong!"

"In this big competition, he is at least the top three."

"yes, it's still possible to take the first place."

A few people couldn't help but talk a few times.

"Brother Lu, let's go."

Wei He put away the jade talisman and walked out of the stone room side by side with Lu Fan.

There was still talk behind him.

"It's this Lu Fan, it's a little unworthy of the name."

"Isn't it in the middle of the merger? How can it only be in the middle stage of refining? ”

"I will say that rumors are not credible, and the world loves to exaggerate."

"That's right, after all, he is only twenty-one years old, and it is already rare to have today's cultivation, how can it be in the middle stage of integration?"

"It's a pity, with his strength, it is difficult to enter the top ten, and there is no chance to go to the ancient battlefield."

"Even if you give him another ten years, maybe he will have a chance to enter the gates of eternity."

"Yes, in terms of talent, he may be better than Wei He, and he suffers too young."

"The next time the Gate of Eternity opens, it's a hundred years later, and maybe he'll never have a chance to enter."

"It's a shame."

"But he and Wei He seem to be friends?"

"Where did these two men come from? Talent is more than one against the sky? ”

The voices of everyone's discussion came to the ears of Lu Fan and Wei He word for word.

"Brother Lu."

Wei He and Lu Fan walked side by side and comforted: "You don't have to mind, they don't understand your true strength, but I do." ”

"It's fine."

Lu Fan naturally didn't take it to heart, "I wish others would look down on me, so no one would treat me as an opponent." ”

"You kid."

Wei He smiled: "It seems that I am too high-profile? ”

"Haha."

Lu Fan laughed, "With Brother Wei's strength, you can't even think of a high-profile person." ”

"Brother, don't worry, those powerful opponents will be handed over to me."

Wei He patted Lu Fan lightly and said with a smile: "You just need to make a low-key promotion, and when it comes to the critical moment, you will make a splash again and scare them to death!" ”

"Okay, just listen to the eldest brother."

Lu Fan could feel Wei He's love for him, and he didn't say any more kind words this time.

In his heart, he has long regarded Wei He as his own brother.

Presumably Wei He did the same for him.

There is no need to say more about those hypocritical words.

"Good brother!"

Wei He was greatly relieved, and his pride suddenly became arrogant, "In this big competition, our brothers let those immortal cultivators see how powerful our martial cultivators are." ”

"Okay."

Lu Fan responded loudly.
