Chapter 415: Aftermath (5)
"Humans don't always care about the ants under their feet, and even if they crawl over the paws of their feet, they don't look at them again. The same is true for a Martial Saint-level powerhouse. Your worries are unwarranted from the start. β
The Great Asura knew what Yang Ji was thinking, and said lightly.
Yang Ji could only be silent. "The weak eat the strong, the winner is king", in the eyes of the strong, the weak are like ants, not worth mentioning, this is a fact.
"Actually, not only Prince Taiyuan, but even that evil god clone also doesn't have the ability to fly to the sky. You see him flying in the sky, in fact, it is completely by virtue of a trace of connection with the outer heavens, and it gains power from the main body, so that it can temporarily control the sky. β
"Except for birds, which are born with wings, other creatures are not so easily free from the attraction of the earth. But the bones of the birds are empty, and the flight altitude of the birds is also limited, most of them are not high, and they cannot fly infinitely, which is not the same as the real flight in the sky. - It's not as easy as you think. β
The Great Asura Path.
Yang Ji nodded, a little relieved. Glancing at the roof of the temple, there was already a faint light shining through.
"Let's go, it's time for us to get out of here. From last night to now, after such a long time, there should be a result from the imperial court. β
Zhang Fu and the evil gods outside the sky are threats in the future, and the martial arts examination is the most concerned issue for Yang Ji at the moment. According to the normal procedure, it stands to reason that the list of the first batch of martial artists should be announced last night and given a big red robe.
But because of the matter of the evil god's doppelganger, the matter was abandoned halfway. To some extent, the battle between Yang Ji and Zhang Fu is not over. Although Zhang Fu's qualifications were revoked, it is difficult to say whether the imperial court recognizes his qualifications.
In addition, the ring built by the imperial court with Fu Zheng steel collapsed, and how to arrange the follow-up competition depends on the imperial court's announcement today.
Soldiers are fast. No one dares to slack off on such a major event as Wu Keju. From last night to now, Yang Ji believes that the imperial court must be brightly lit and studied all night, and now there should be a charter.
Sou!
As soon as his body was longitudinal, Yang Ji jumped up, and he was familiar with the road in a few breaths. Withdrew from the Gou Mang Temple. The whole process didn't alarm anyone.
The generals of the Ministry of Industry were still asleep until Yang Ji left.
......
The streets were foggy, but the streets were crowded. Yang Ji walked on the street, and kept hearing the names of evil spirits and Zhang servants in his ears.
"It looks like the announcement should have come out. β
Yang Ji said secretly in his heart.
During this time, the martial arts examination was a well-deserved event in Taiyuan Mansion. Regardless of the businessmen and scholars, the peddlers and pawns are concerned about this matter.
"The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband", in the Han Dynasty, this sense of responsibility is more obvious.
The best place to read announcements in the Han Dynasty is the place of tea shops and restaurants. Yang Ji walked along the street, but hundreds of zhang immediately saw a restaurant. There was a lot of people around. The guys in the restaurant leaned against the door frame and smiled, and a team of court soldiers around them maintained order.
"This is it. β
Yang Ji's heart moved, and he squeezed through the crowd, and sure enough, he saw a yellow list posted on the outer wall of the restaurant.
"Announcement of the Imperial Examination:
Candidate No. 777, Zhang Fu, a disciple of the Zhang family of Zuolu County, had an improper heart, followed his own behavior, and colluded with evil spirits with the intention of winning in the martial arts examination. He is now disqualified from the competition. And wanted all over the continent.
If anyone finds any trace of him, he must not immediately report it to the court. β
Several cinnabar seals of various departments of the imperial court are stamped on the back!
"That's right!"
Yang Ji looked at the lines of text on it. I said secretly in my heart. The matter of the evil gods outside the heavens was briefly described as "evil spirits", and it was obvious that the imperial court did not want to cause unnecessary panic, so it was deliberately downplayed.
As for those who witnessed it last night, and those who know the truth...... , the list was not meant to be shown to them. Naturally, it can't cause them to panic.
Yang Ji's gaze stayed on this list for a moment. It was quickly moved to a small print next to it. Compared to the previous one, this list is much smaller and doesn't look obvious.
But there is content in it that is very important to Yang Ji:
"The martial arts examination will be suspended for one day, and then it will be held as scheduled!
After that, there was nothing else, and it looked more like a very ordinary routine official document of the imperial court. But see this list. Yang Ji frowned.
"These guys didn't mention anything about you. β
The voice of the Great Asura came to his head, and he could see it.
"Nope. β
Yang Ji also shook his head, unable to say any emotion in his heart. He didn't care very much about whether the Wukeju was postponed or not. What he cares about is last night's top three battle.
Zhang Fu has been disqualified, and it stands to reason that he should be promoted smoothly. From last night to now, for such a long time, it stands to reason that the imperial court should have made a decision. At the very least, I should have sent someone to inform myself, but there has been no news for a long time.
This is really beyond Yang Ji's expectations!
"Don't worry, there is no one to threaten you except Zhang Servant and Sanjia. If it is not awarded to you, who else can it be awarded? I don't think you have to worry about this. β
The Great Asura reassured.
In this martial arts examination, Yang Ji made a lot of efforts and took a lot of risks. even provoked the evil gods of the outer heavens, and almost took his life.
Yang Ji was very concerned about this matter, and the Great Asura was not confused enough to provoke him in this matter.
"I hope so. β
Yang Ji sighed, and there was still a hint of disappointment in his eyes. In this matter, the chief examiner from the Imperial Capital City last night actually accepted him.
This is called the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Although he understands that there should be no mistakes in this matter, but caring about it is chaotic, Yang Ji cares too much about this matter, so he can't bear the slightest surprise.
"Let's go back to the Jade Axe Inn first. β
Yang Jidao.
Wu Keju has a one-day off, which should deal with the destruction of the steel ring of Fu Gong and the hole in the roof of the palace. Yang Ji thought about it, but decided to go back to the Jade Axe Inn first.
Now that his strength has recovered, he can deal with even those with bad intentions. It's best to wait there to rest.
Leave the restaurant, turn a few roads, and shuttle through the bustling streets. After about a few hours, Yang Ji finally arrived near the Jade Axe Inn.
Before entering the inn, I suddenly heard a surprise shout:
"Senior Brother Yang is back!"
Yang Ji's heart moved, and before he could react, a large number of people suddenly poured out of the black pressure in the Jade Axe Inn, rushing straight towards him.
"Senior Brother Yang, it's time to wait for you!"
Ouyang Zishi took the lead and rushed over with a large number of people, his expression was excited, his face was flushed, and he was pleasantly surprised:
"Senior brother, let's see who's coming!"
As he spoke, he flashed to the side, and in a moment, several figures stepped out of the Jade Axe Inn. When I saw these figures, I was taken aback.
"Elder, why are you here?!"
Yang Ji said with a look of surprise.
Behind Ouyang Zishi, several old men with silver temples, shimmering spirits, and meticulously combed hair were walking out of the door, looking at themselves with a smile and striding over.
Who are the three elders who are not Elder Qiu, Elder Xing, and Elder Zhang of the Iron Crown Sect?
Ouyang Zishi had mentioned to Yang Ji that a few elders would come, but Yang Ji didn't expect them to come so early, and they had already arrived at Taiyuan Continent Mansion just after dawn!
And it's the three elders who come together!
"Hahaha, Yang Ji, good! Good! You really deserve to be a disciple of our Iron Crown Sect!"
The three elders were beaming, as if they hadn't heard Yang Ji's words, and as soon as they saw Yang Ji, Elder Xing gave him a "bear hug" fiercely.
"Hahaha, you've really surprised us. Elder Zhang, how is it? Yang Ji really didn't disappoint us!"
Elder Qiu was also happy, and even the people outside were infected.
"Who said that? I've never doubted it! Yang Ji, you really give us the Iron Crown Sect's long face!"
Elder Zhang's face was also flushed, and his excitement was beyond words.
The three of them surrounded Yang Ji, praised one after another, and praised Yang Ji inexplicably.
"The three elders praised falsely, Yang Ji must do his best not to disappoint the sect. β
Yang Jigong said.
The martial arts examination is not over yet, and Yang Ji does not dare to speak too hard. In case there will be any accidents at that time, several elders cheered in the air.
"Hahaha, where did the disappointment come from, haven't you already succeeded?"
The three elders, you look at me, I look at you, and laughed together.
"Huh?"
Yang Ji finally raised his head, looked around with joy, and looked at his people with a smile. Yang Ji finally realized something. It looks like something happened that everyone knows, but only I don't know.
This doubt did not last long, and soon Ouyang Zishi revealed the mystery.
"Senior Brother Yang, don't you know yet, right?" Ouyang Zishi's face was exaggerated.
"What do you know?" Yang Ji's heart jumped, and he immediately asked.
"The imperial court has sent an envoy, Senior Brother Yang, you are already a martial artist of this year, and you are also among the top threeββ Senior Brother Yang, congratulations!"
In the end, Ouyang Zishi smiled and groaned, and his voice rose by three points.
"What ?!!"
Yang Ji shook violently and raised his head violently. Even the Great Asura in Yang Ji's mind was surprised. The two of them had read the list outside, and there was no news of Yang Ji at all.
But Ouyang Zishi actually said that he was already a martial artist.
"Just when the sky was just dawning, the generals of the martial arts examination waited for you for a long time. See you're not there, and then you're gone. But the official document of the notice is still there. β
Ouyang Zishi said.
"Show it to me. β
Yang Ji said hurriedly.
Soon, Ouyang Zishi took it out of his sleeve. Such an important thing, he also kept it close to him, where did he dare to put it in the room casually. (To be continued.) )
