Chapter Ninety-Eight: The First Round of Screening
Ye Chen was slightly stunned, and immediately knew that Xiao Xianshuang was in the chaos immortal scars until what happened outside, but how could she know what was going on outside through her chaotic immortal scar space, Ye Chen was a little puzzled, but he didn't think much about it, Xiao Xianshuang was very mysterious, and her history alone made people unpredictable, just like a myth, a legend.
It was still early, but there was a lot of people on the streets of Yingcheng, and a large number of cultivators and ordinary people went to the Central Arena, some participated in the selection competition, and some went to watch the competition.
Ye Chen and the others followed the crowd towards the Yingcheng Arena, and when they came to the arena, it was already crowded with people, and there were already hundreds of thousands of people standing in the huge arena at this time, dense and noisy.
The arena was full of people standing in all directions, and a wide arena in the center was three or four meters above the horizon, and there were ten men and women standing on it, divided into five groups, which were the people of the Four Great Blessed Lands and the City Lord's Mansion.
The people of the Four Great Blessed Lands stood in the corner of the four sides of the arena, and the city lord's mansion was an old man, standing in the center of the arena, looking around the arena at this time.
Each of the four blessed lands has a sign indicating the blessed land where it is located. Ye Chen was in the crowd, his eyes looked at the arena, and swept them one by one where the people of the Four Great Blessed Lands were.
Although they were a few hundred meters apart, Ye Chen could still feel the pressure emanating from their bodies, it was a kind of pressure from people's hearts, like a big mountain pressing on their hearts.
God blessed land, dragon vein blessed land, smoke blessed land, Lingquan blessed land, in addition to Lingquan blessed land, the other three blessed lands have only two people, an old man and a young disciple. There are three people in the Lingquan blessed land, an old man, a young man, and a young woman.
For the other three blessed lands, Ye Chen's gaze stayed for a moment before moving away, this time he and Ye Yan were aiming at the Lingquan blessed land, so Ye Chen set his eyes on the three people in the Lingquan blessed land.
The young man in the Lingquan Blessed Land exuded a powerful aura all over his body, this aura made Ye Chen feel like an ant, the man was dressed in purple clothes, his face was very handsome, but his eyebrows were full of arrogance, and the old man, who looked fifty years old, had an indifferent expression, he looked like an ordinary old man, Ye Chen couldn't feel a trace of a strong man's breath from him at all.
The old man of the four blessed lands is the same, and he looks like an ordinary person.
What attracted Ye Chen and Ye Yan's attention the most was the woman in the Lingquan Blessed Land, the woman was dressed in white and was dressed in fluttering, she stood there, a few clothes and belts fluttered gently, as if she was a fairy in the dust of the Nine Heavens.
Ye Chen looked at her, and the strongest feeling was coldness, followed by indifference. The woman's face is beautiful, whether it is her appearance or figure, she is perfect to the extreme, she has a green silk shawl, her eyes are very indifferent, as if she is indifferent to every qiē in the world, and has a cold and elegant temperament.
Ye Chen only glanced at it a few times and then couldn't help but withdraw his gaze, the woman actually made people have a strong feeling that could not be blasphemed, Ye Chen turned his head to look, and saw that the other people in the arena were the same, his eyes only stayed on the woman slightly and then moved away, as if a few more glances were blasphemy against her.
"Big brother, that sister is so beautiful. Xiao Xianshuang blinked her big eyes and pointed at the woman in the Lingquan blessed land and said, after speaking, her eyes rolled a little, and she said, "She is as beautiful as Sister Yan." ”
Ye Chen and Ye Yan were both stunned, and then they both laughed, the little girl actually learned to pat on the back.
However, Xiao Xianshuang's words made Ye Chen's eyes fall on the woman again, Ye Chen was slightly stunned, he found that the woman was not standing on the ground, her dress almost covered her pair of jade feet, Ye Chen saw it very clearly, she was standing in the air, three inches from the ground, a pair of jade feet were crystal clear, like a beautiful jade carving, without a trace of flaws, perfect to the extreme.
There were many people in the arena, and it seemed extremely noisy, and the old man in the center of the arena suddenly spoke, and the sound was like spring thunder, thick and long, spreading to every corner of the arena.
"Everyone, be quiet!" the old man from the City Lord's Mansion looked around, and the sound of rolling came out, and the entire arena immediately fell silent.
"After signing up some time ago, there are more than 3,000 people who came to Yingcheng to participate in the selection this time, and these more than 3,000 people must first go through two screenings before they are eligible to compete on stage, and now the first round of screening begins!" The old man of the City Lord's Mansion said lightly, and a trace of excitement could be seen on his face, it was an honor to be able to preside over this big competition, and today he will witness several or even ten geniuses who will be favored by a blessed land, and from then on the future will be immeasurable, adding glory to Yingcheng.
There was silence in all directions, and everyone was looking forward to the first round of screening, and they didn't know what kind of screening method this first round was.
"In the first round of competition in the cultivation realm, all those who have not reached the eighth stage of the physical body over the age of sixteen and under the age of twenty-five will lose their qualifications for selection, and those over the age of twenty-five and below the secret realm of the Sea of Life will lose their qualifications for selection. ”
Wow!
There was an uproar in the audience, and countless complaints suddenly rang out.
"Why, it's not fair, we didn't enter the eighth stage because we didn't have enough elixir support, but it doesn't mean that we don't have potential, it's too unfair. ”
"Yes, it's not fair, if you screen it like this, aren't all the disciples of those families and sects who are qualified, they have a large number of elixirs to support, how can we who are loose cultivators or have no power compare to them. ”
Many men and women who were disqualified in the first round spoke loudly.
"Quiet, everyone quiet, don't be noisy. The old man from the City Lord's Mansion immediately shouted, but those who had lost their qualifications were excited and didn't listen to it at all.
"How do you want us to be quiet, we came all the way to participate in this tryout, just to be able to enter the blessed land to cultivate, but we lost our qualifications before the competition started. ”
"Yes, although we have not entered the eighth stage of the physical body, it does not mean that we are worse than the eighth stage. ”
"It's not fair, why don't you have the qualifications when you reach the age of twenty-five, at the age of twenty-five, I have reached the peak of the eighth stage, even compared to those family disciples who have the support of elixir every day, it is far better, we can't compare to them there. ”
The scene was a little out of control, the old man in the City Lord's Mansion was sweating profusely, this time he presided over this big competition for the Four Great Blessed Lands, if things were not done well, he would definitely be blamed by the City Lord, but at this time, he felt powerless, and those people didn't listen to him at all.
"Don't make a noise, everyone!"
A voice sounded from the place where the dragon vein blessed land was located, the sound was not loud, but every word seemed to hit people's hearts, all the voices stopped abruptly, the old man in the dragon vein blessed land glanced lightly at the four directions of the field, just that glance, people seemed to feel that a big mountain pressed over, almost suffocated, and breathless.
"You want to be fair? There is never any fairness on the path of cultivation, you don't have the support of the forces, but as long as you have a tenacious heart that will never give up, you can still meet our first round of standards without the support of a secular family or sect, and if you don't meet it, it only means that you are not qualified. ”
Ye Chen stood in the crowd below, listening to the old man's words, he nodded unconsciously, the old man of the Dragon Vein Blessed Land said well, if he has a tough heart, even if he doesn't have the support of his family behind him, what about the elixir, can't he go to find the elixir, in this flesh realm, ordinary cultivators need less elixir. The four blessed lands select disciples, thousands of people compete for those places, and the capable have nothing to complain about.
Those who lost their qualifications in the audience suddenly stopped making a sound, and the people in the Dragon Vein Blessed Land spoke, and no one dared to express their dissatisfaction anymore.
Seeing that the audience was quiet, the old man of the Dragon Vein Blessed Land glanced at the old man in the City Lord's Mansion, and the old man of the City Lord's Mansion immediately understood, and said loudly: "Now the second round of screening is about to be conducted, and all those who have signed up and have not been eliminated in the first round will all stand in the open space in front of the arena. ”
Suddenly, countless heads shook, and one by one young cultivators walked out of the crowd, and the open space in front of the arena was quickly filled with selected young cultivators. After the first round of screening, there were more than 3,000 people, but only more than 100 people were left at this time.
More than 100 people, one by one, were apprehensive, and they didn't know what kind of screening method would be next. They all looked at the old man in the Central City Lord's Mansion of the Arena.
The old man of the City Lord's Mansion looked at the hundred or so people under the stands, cleared his throat, and said, "The second round of screening, the blood qi stone test." ”
When the words fell, one of the four blessed lands waved one hand, and four white stones one foot tall appeared out of thin air, and landed steadily on the arena with a bang, and the four stones stood side by side, smooth as jade, and there were five circles like mirrors at the top of them.
"You see those four stones, that is the blood gas stone, you just need to put your hand on the blood gas stone, you don't have to think about anything, just run the blood qi in your body with all your strength, then the blood qi stone will test the strength of your blood qi, the top five such as the circle will emit light, the more round the blood qi will be, the stronger the blood qi, the greater the potential of the physical body. ”
After speaking, the old man of the City Lord's Mansion looked at more than 100 people and said: "The separate test of the eighth stage and the ninth stage, there are four blood qi stones on the stage, the test body on the left is eight stages, and the right one is tested for the ninth stage of the body body, the blood and qi stones will be automatically adjusted according to your cultivation realm, don't worry about the dominance of the nine stages." ”
Saying this, those eighth-stage young cultivators breathed a heavy sigh of relief, what they were worried about just now was the indiscriminate test of the eighth-stage and nine-stage, if that was the case, how could the eight-stage realm be comparable to the ninth-rank realm's blood qi.
"Now the test starts, four people come up at a time, and they test in turn. The old man of the City Lord's Mansion said.
The second watch will be delivered, and the third watch in the evening will be scheduled at eight o'clock.
