Three days passed quickly.

The day of enrollment in Shenwu Altar has finally arrived, and this is the first time Dugu Zhishui has seen this kind of grand event, and he is still looking forward to it.

As soon as the sun first rises in the morning, Anping City is lively, and the flow of people from all over the city is converging on Qingming Square. This Qingming Square is located outside the south gate of the imperial city and is the façade of the entire imperial city. The floor of the square is all paved with white marble, which shines in the sunlight, and from a distance, it seems that a mist of light rises on the ground. If you look at it for a long time, you may lose your sight because your eyes cannot focus. When walking on it, the light is too bright, and people can only see a very small area, and because the square itself is relatively large, it will form the illusion that the square is boundless. This design is intended to show the inviolability of the royal majesty and the dazzling brilliance of the Yuwen royal family.

Qingming Square is a square square area and can accommodate 100,000 people. At this time, the square was heavily guarded by black-clad royal guards, and in the center of the square were ten tables, behind each of which was a person sitting quietly, all of whom looked to be in their twenties, but their eyes were shining brightly when they opened and closed. At this time, there were already crowds of people outside the square, who came to see the excitement, those who participated in the selection, those who took the opportunity to set up stalls to sell things, and all kinds of people surrounded the square, but no one dared to cross the Praetorian Guards in front of them who were as tall as javelins to take a look. All those who came to participate in the selection could only line up in the aisles vacated by the Praetorian Guards to enter the field in turn, and on closer inspection, there were already ten long queues on the field.

When Dugu Zhishui followed Yuetong to Qingming Square, he was really shocked by the crowded scene, it was the first time he had seen so many people gathered in such a small area. When he and Yuetong arrived, the road to the square had already been blocked, and they tried to squeeze in the direction of the square from the far periphery, but the crowd in front of them was already close to people, and they could no longer enter seamlessly.

Squeezed in the crowd, Dugu stopped breathing, and the noise made him feel dizzy, and after a while, he couldn't support it and wanted to escape from here. However, Yuetong was pestered and didn't let him go, and pulled him to squeeze forward desperately, Dugu Zhishui's face turned a little pale, and he was reluctantly dragged forward by Yuetong, becoming a shield in Yuetong's hand. I don't know how long it took, but the two of them walked forward more than ten steps, far from the front row.

"Didn't you say that the first round of this selection would last for many days, why are you in such a hurry? No, I can't do it, grandma, let's go. ”

"I don't, I'm going to the front row to watch the excitement, and Brother Zhishui will accompany me. ”

"It's okay for you to go by yourself, why do you have to pull me, I really can't stand so many people. Dugu Zhishui cried and mourned, his face was slightly blue, all kinds of smells in this crowd were mixed, I didn't know who farted just now, he was held in one place and couldn't move, so he could only bear it silently.

"No...... No, no, no, no, I'm going to stop the water brother to accompany me, good big brother, you can accompany me. Yuetong pursed her mouth, covered her nose, and hugged Dugu Zhishui tightly, and the whole person was about to hang on him.

Dugu stopped crying without tears.

So, then Dugu Zhishui could only keep squeezing forward under Yuetong's drag, squeezing, until Yuetong finally pushed away the last mountain in front of him, and when he was about to rush outside to catch his breath in the eyes of the mountain that was about to kill, a small head was squeezed out from the other side of the mountain at the same time, and then the two little heads collided together.

Dugu Zhishui, who was dragged by Yuetong, only heard a dull crashing sound, and he was almost dragged down. When he saw what was happening, he suddenly shivered, and he felt so painful just listening to the sound.

The surrounding crowd hissed, and the big man who had been squeezed aside by Yuetong before was full of schadenfreude.

At this moment, Yuetong and the other little head that rushed out were all full of tears, covering their heads with one hand and pointing at each other with the other. The owner of the other little head turned out to be a young girl with clear eyebrows, she was wearing a dark red coarse cloth bodysuit, and her long hair was tied into a braid.

"You, you, you...... Oh......" Yuetong said while rubbing her head, "Are you alright?"

The girl sat on the ground with a look of grievance, and saw Yuetong stretch out her hand and subconsciously rubbed her ass back. Yuetong shook her hand, and the girl carefully put her hand in her palm. Yuetong pulled her up from the ground, a little embarrassed for a while.

"Hey, I said that the two eldest ladies are so able to squeeze, not like thin-skinned people, why are they dumb now?" Dugu Zhishui looked at the two of them without speaking, and looked at them gloatingly.

Yuetong glared at him, the corners of her mouth pursed, she grabbed the arm of the other girl and turned her head to look at the square, "Sister, ignore him, look at the excitement." ”

The girl was a little surprised when Yuetong held her arm, she looked at Yuetong puzzled for a while, and was gradually attracted by the flow of people in the square.

At this moment, completely different from the hustle and bustle outside the square, there was a silent and oppressive atmosphere in the square, and everyone who came to sign up followed the team slowly and silently. At the front of the procession is a cylindrical jade platform, and at the edge of the jade platform there is a curtain of light rising, which looks strange. The people in line walked up to the jade platform in turn, and for each person who went up, a wave of light swayed up from the bottom of the light curtain like ripples on the water surface. At the same time, a long strip of jade wat in the hand of the young man sitting in front of the wooden table would flash with a burst of light, and words would appear on it. The words on this jade wat represent the talent of the candidates.

Anyone who passes the test is given a white piece of paper that looks like a certificate or something, but strangely enough, there are no words on it. Most people come with trepidation and deep disappointment. The young man at the table sent off one candidate after another with an expressionless face, and only occasionally a few special words appeared on the jade wat that made his expression move slightly.

As when they came, the candidates walked out of the square in the cracks of the human wall built by Sensen iron armor, put away their unwillingness and loneliness, with a strong smile, with the arrogance of passing the selection, in the cheers of the surrounding crowd, they left with laughter, and then cried in a place where no one was, scolding the injustice of heaven.

Dugu Zhishui looked at it for a while, feeling a little empty in his heart, and he was not interested in the test on the field. Looking at Yuetong again, she didn't seem to have much interest in watching it any further, and pulled the little girl who crashed with her to chat, and the little girl seemed to be very uncomfortable with Yuetong's enthusiasm and behaved very restrained.

Dugu Zhishui looked at Yuetong, and wanted to retreat quietly, but he had to give up after looking at the crowded crowd behind him.

The sun was setting in the west, and the day's test came to an end, and the participants who failed to make it in the square had complicated expressions, not knowing whether to be annoyed or relieved.

Dugu Zhishui walked slowly with the gradually dispersed flow of people, Yuetong held the little girl's arm and was still chatting about something, until she walked far away, Yuetong and the little girl reluctantly said goodbye, and seemed to agree when to see each other again.

When they returned to Yue's house, it was already dark, and as soon as Yuetong and Dugu Zhishui walked into their courtyard, the two people not far behind them hurried away.

In a carved corridor, Yue Jianling leaned on the pillar and casually threw a handful of fish food into the pond, watching the fish in the water compete with each other for bait, and a wicked smile hung on his face. This feeling of manipulating the fate of others and watching from the wall by himself is very enjoyable for him.

Two people suddenly ran over in a hurry, and Yue Jianling frowned and looked at them indifferently.

"Young master, Yuetong is back, that Dugu Zhishui has been with her all the time, and we didn't find a chance to start. ”

"Oh?" Yue Jianling glanced at the man.

"Less...... Young master. Small real ...... I really tried my best......" The man trembled, walking on thin ice.

Yue Jianling retracted her gaze and continued to look into the pond, "Then Yue Tong has participated in the test?"

"Not yet. ”

The corners of Yue Jianling's mouth hooked, and she said to herself: "You'd better pass the test, so that I won't be too lonely in the Divine Martial Altar......"

On the second day of enrollment in Shenwu Altar, Yuetong quietly went out before dawn, without calling Dugu Zhishui. After she left, Dugu Zhishui woke up from her cultivation, looked at the window, and closed her eyes again.

For a day, when there was nothing to do, Dugu Zhishui stayed in the room to practice. When Yuetong came back, it was already evening, and Dugu Zhishui looked at her although she was a little tired but with a smile on her face, guessing that she should have passed the first round of testing. Dugu Zhishui is not surprised by this, after all, Yuetong has passed the talent test last time, and the most important thing is the next two rounds of tests.

Yuetong brought back a blank piece of paper, Dugu Zhishui took it and looked at it, but he didn't find anything special, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange.

"What's the use of this blank paper?"

"I don't know, everyone who passed the test has it, and they also said that they can only participate in the second round of the test with this piece of paper. Yuetong looked dazed, obviously not knowing what this paper was for.

"There's nothing written on it, wouldn't it be okay if someone snatched it from someone else and took it to the second round of testing?" Dugu Zhishui frowned, he always felt that things were not so simple.

"Huh, won't it......" Yuetong's eyes widened, and then she seemed to suddenly think of something, "By the way, I met the sister from yesterday again today, the two of us took the test together, you don't know, that sister is actually a superior talent!"

Dugu Zhishui raised his eyebrows, "That girl is so powerful?"

"yes, I really didn't see it, people call it a real person who doesn't show his face. I had a meal with her after the test, and the younger sister was still a little shy and didn't talk much. ”

"You can't be the one who dragged people to dinner, right?" Dugu Zhishui suddenly chuckled.

Yuetong's little face suddenly turned red, "No!"

Yuetong happily ran to rest, Dugu Zhishui put away the smile on his face, thoughtful.
