Chapter 34 Heaven and Earth Work Together When the Time Comes
The time came to the next day. Today's Shengsendai is much more lively than yesterday.
Because it is different from yesterday's written test, the second and third levels of the Immortal Ascension Trial are actual combat levels, and according to the rules of the Hanging Sword Pavilion, outsiders are allowed to come to the scene to watch the battle.
First, this is to put an end to the hidden danger of "closed-door lottery" and to achieve the effect of third-party supervision by the hands of the audience;
Second, this is also a way for those unsuccessful candidates to go.
The Hanging Sword Pavilion only accepts two of the best, and counting the "Resurrection Competition", each county only accepts three on average, but this does not mean that the remaining losers are not young talents.
Therefore, many small and medium-sized sects and local families will come to this trial site to watch the battle, preparing to recruit their favorite young talents after the game-the "second-rate talents" rejected by the Hanging Sword Pavilion, they are all rushing to ask for them.
As in the past, as the head of the Fang family, Fang Buqun also brought the housekeeper Fang Wu to this trial site.
But this time, his mind was not at all about recruiting talents for the family.
"Fang Xing..."As soon as Fang Buqun took his seat, his eyes were firmly nailed to Fang Xing.
Yesterday, after Li Wuqi disclosed the content of the second level of the trial, many candidates who knew that their strength was not good retreated.
But this does not include Fang Xing.
He came anyway.
"Ugh." Fang Buqun sighed deeply, and there was a thick worry condensed between his eyebrows.
"The head of the house." The housekeeper Fang Wu immediately comforted him: "I don't think you have to worry. No matter how talented Fang Xing was, he was only a fifth-layer Qi cultivation with his dantian damaged and decadent for three years. ā
"Don't talk about it now, even when he was fortunate three years ago, he didn't last more than ten breaths in front of me."
"Today's hurdle, he probably won't be able to pass it."
Fang Wu happened to be a monk at the peak of Qi cultivation. The person who was ordered by the other party to commit the black hand three years ago also happened to be him.
Fang Xing's only "defeat" so far was beaten by him.
"That guy can't hold out in front of me for ten breaths, let alone face that ferocious snow-capped demon beast?"
Although it is said that the strength of those demon beasts is comparable to the peak of qi training, but when people and demon beasts really make a move, generally speaking, the demon beasts of the same realm are three points stronger.
Known:
The disabled Fang Xing< Quansheng Fang Xing< Fang Wu < Xuan Ice and Snow Leopard.
Easy Proof: Today Fang Xing will be defeated!
"No matter what, this battle is the pinnacle of the fifth layer of Qi training, and humans against demon beasts." Fang Wu swore and analyzed: "The advantage is mine, family master!" ā
Truly. Theoretically speaking, Fang Xing doesn't look like he can pass the test today.
"But..."Fang Buqun still couldn't dispel his worries.
Seeing this, Fang Wu's confidence also decreased: "Family Master, are you worried that Li Wuqi is secretly cheating?" ā
Ever since they heard the news from the Forgotten Worry Building, Li Wuqi had already been in the same group with Fang Xing in their eyes.
If he, the examiner, was cheating behind his back, then Fang Xing would really be able to pass it successfully today.
"No..."Fang Buqun shook his head: "I'm not worried about this. ā
Although he didn't know why Li Wuqi would rather risk offending his Tianjiao son to save Fang Xing, Fang Buqun knew that the contradictions between the two sides had become public.
Since they have all formed a bond like this, then he has nothing to hide.
"I asked those Hanging Sword disciples in advance about the content of the audition trial in the second level." Fang Buqun said: "Those disciples are also willing to give Wu'er face, so they told me the content of the trial in advance. ā
"Actually, Li Wuqi originally planned to use those domesticated demon beasts he brought as a trial opponent."
"It was I who tore his face and forced him to change to a wild monster."
Using domesticated demon beasts as trial opponents, Li Wuxian, as the chief examiner, naturally has a lot of opportunities to secretly move in the trial.
Therefore, Fang Buqun resolutely disagreed, and used the batch of domesticated demon beasts brought by Li Wuyi, and asked to go to the depths of the Xuanji Mountain Range and temporarily catch a batch of wild demon beasts to replace them.
Otherwise, he would have to find those who came with the envoy, and the few Hanging Sword Pavilion Supervision Envoys complained and reported that there were loopholes in the trial link.
These inspectors and Li Wuqi are not in the same group. They are independent of the other institutions of the Outer Cabinet, and they are responsible for supervising the entire process of the Immortal Ascension Trial and ensuring fairness as much as possible.
Seemingly under pressure, Li Wuqi finally agreed to his request.
"When I went to capture those wild demon beasts the day before yesterday, I and those inspectors were on the scene." Fang Buqun said: "Those Xuanbing Ice Leopards and Snow Giant Bears were almost captured by me with my own hands. ā
"After I got it back, I have been secretly staring at it for the past two days."
He has achieved this level, how can Li Wuyi have the opportunity to help Fang Xing cheat?
"That family master..."Fang Wu looked at him puzzled, "What are you still worried about?" ā
If you don't cheat, how can Fang Xing have a chance to win?
"I don't know." I saw Fang Buqun sigh deeply: "I always feel that this kid Fang Xing is not quite right... The auspicious signs that appeared on him that day may all be true. ā
"Otherwise, he would have fallen to this point, how could he suddenly change his life in just one month?"
"Time comes and goes, heaven and earth work together, as if everyone in this world is helping him."
While muttering to himself, his eyes looking at Fang Xing gradually became more and more solemn, more and more jealous, and more and more... Apathetic and unforgiving.
-----------------
At this time, Shengsendai is more like the Colosseum.
The venue was filled with spectators all around. There are five giant iron cages on the field, and each cage is holding a fierce demon beast.
Three of them are ice leopards, each two feet long and one story high;
The other two are snowfield giant bears, which are nearly ten meters tall and terrifyingly large.
Just standing in that cage was enough to make a group of candidates tremble with nervousness.
"The content of your trial today is to choose one of these five demon beasts and survive ten breaths when you confront them alone."
"The rules are simple." Li Wuqi said loudly: "So, who will come first?" ā
The scene was silent.
The candidates glanced at the snow leopard.
"Ahhh~" The snow leopard opened its mouth that could swallow the blood of ten people at a time, and blew back a fishy wind.
They glanced at the bear again.
"Whew~" The giant bear stomped its foot, and the earth seemed to tremble.
This... Who comes first?
It should be said that who went to die first, right?
"Senior Li." The candidates couldn't help but question: "Is this, this level too difficult?" This ten-layer wild demon beast of Qi training, ordinary people... No, how can a normal person cope with it! ā
This question sounds well-founded.
But Li Wuqi was unmoved.
He only asked, "If you don't count the retest, how many of you will win?" ā
The re-examination is almost a "repechage match", which is specially designed to balance the difference in the quality of candidates between regions.
For example, if the strength of the candidates who register in Beiyuan County, Youzhou is on average at the fifth level of Qi training, and the strength of the candidates who register in Luoshui County, Zhongzhou is on average at the sixth level of Qi training.
Only two people from each county will be taken, which will be very unfair to the candidates in Luoshui County this year, and it will not be able to make the Hanging Sword Pavilion achieve their goal of "taking the best in the world".
Therefore, after the official trial, the Hanging Sword Pavilion will also select the elite from the losers from all over the country and go to Tianmai Mountain to participate in the semi-finals. In this way, the elites of the unsuccessful candidates in all counties of the world can gather together and compete on the same stage to play the "resurrection match", so that the talented people will not be buried.
But since it is competing with the world's elites, this "repechage match" is naturally extremely difficult. Therefore, if most people are not absolutely confident in their own strength, they will not consider any retest.
The two official places admitted by the local county government are what they can compete for.
So the candidates could only answer: "2 people." ā
"That's right, two." Li Wuqi said in a calm tone: "Now there are nearly 100 people here, 2 out of 100 people, will these 2 people be 'ordinary people' and 'normal people'?" ā
"No, the Hanging Sword Pavilion wants an extraordinary person!"
"As long as there are still 2 of you out of 100 people who dare to go up and can pass the test, then the purpose of this immortal ascension trial will be achieved."
Li Wuyi looked down at the candidates present, and his gaze inadvertently fixed on Fang Xing: "Then..."
"Are there these two men among you?"
The candidates hesitated.
Most people are afraid to get on it. Even if you have an idea, you don't dare to be the first one.
Everyone wants to let a warrior go up first, test the water for everyone, and see if it really works to challenge the peak demon beast of Qi cultivation at the next level.
And this warrior is:
"Iā" Mo Li was about to take a step forward.
But there was a figure that was a hundred times more determined, walking in front of him.
"I'm coming!" In Li Wuyi's relieved gaze, Fang Xing stood up.
