The cave is in a circular arena surrounded by rows of seats with two square platforms in the middle. On one of the tables, there are more than a dozen square tables, on which are placed pen, ink, paper and inkstones, presumably in the place of Wenbi. There is nothing on the other platform, it should be the place of martial arts!

The surrounding stands were already full of people, and everyone was talking about something with a ruddy face, as if it was themselves who would be on the field for a while.

Li Zhongxuan and the three of them casually found a few places to sit down, and the people next to them saw that Ye Tianhao was coming. hurriedly got up and gave way, but Ye Tianhao just waved his hand to signal that there was no need for this. Then he smiled and exchanged pleasantries with these people.

Ye Tianhao looked at an old man next to him who was dressed in a black robe and had white hair and smiled, and then stretched out his hand and pointed to Li Zhongxuan beside him and introduced to the old man: "This is the inferior Li Zhongxuan, this time I also want to see the demeanor of the young talents in the cave." If you meet the Seven Elders and Virtuous Suns, you must be merciful!" Then Ye Tianhao looked at Li Zhongxuan again: "Zhongxuan, this is the Seven Elders of the Yuwen Clan, and he is surrounded by the famous Yuwen Liufeng!" In his words, he naturally introduced Li Zhongxuan as a disciple.

Li Zhongxuan was also attracted by the Seven Elders of Yuwen who had their temples bulging high, and when he heard this, he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Kid Li Zhongxuan, I have seen the Seventh Elder. The names of the Seven Elders have long been heard like thunder. When I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation!" Then Li Zhongxuan looked at Yuwen Liufeng next to him and said with a smile: "Brother Yuwen, if I am lucky enough to fight you, I hope my subordinates will be merciful!"

Yuwen Liufeng smiled and said: "There is no need to be so polite, Brother Li is a senior disciple of Ye Daxia, if we are fated to fight later, I also hope that Brother Li can give more advice." ”

Seeing this, Ye Tianhao smiled and said: "You don't have to be so polite, everyone in the cave is your own person, just compete and learn until the point!"

Li Zhongxuan and Yuwen Liufeng looked at each other when they heard this, smiled and nodded "yes", and then stopped saying no more, and waited intently for Dabi to start.

This is, Ye Tianhao looked at Seventh Elder Yuwen and said with a smile: "Seventh Elder Yuwen, your good grandson must be able to achieve good results this time, right?"

The kind-eyed Seventh Elder Yuwen reached out and touched Yuwen Liufeng's head, and then smiled at Ye Tianhao: "Where is it, Liufeng is only fourteen this year, and he is just here to see and understand." Although his words are modest, his face is quite smug!

"Hahaha, Elder Yuwen Seven doesn't have to be too humble! Yuwen Liufeng, who was only thirteen years old last year, won the top ten seats in the martial arts competition, and this year he will definitely be able to go to the next level, even if it is the top three, it is unknown!" Ye Tianhao looked at the expressionless Yuwen Liufeng and smiled.

Elder Yuwen Qi had an even more smug look on his face, but his words were still modest: "Brother Ye is really too modest, I am satisfied that I can compete for the top five positions in the martial arts competition this time!"

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will do my best to fight for the top three!" Yuwen Liufeng gritted his teeth, but his immature face was very serious!

Seeing this, Elder Yuwen Qi smiled with satisfaction: "Just do your best, the rankings are all false, grandpa believes in you!"

......

On the side, Li Zhongxuan suddenly felt a little big, this son was two years younger than him, but he wanted to compete for the top three positions, maybe he would also face Yuwen Fengyue, who was known as a "martial idiot", it was really more popular than people. whispered to Ye Liuying: "This Yuwen Liufeng is so young, he has such a strong strength, and his talent is really amazing." ”

Ye Liuying whispered back: "That's natural, I watched him compete with others last year." He is young, but he is powerful. I heard my father say that he was born with divine power, and he could use a big knife of more than 100 catties when he was six years old!"

The breeze was blowing, but Li Zhongxuan felt a little hot, and he couldn't help but reach out and stroke his forehead, as if he wanted to wipe the sweat off his forehead! What kind of monster is this? At such a young age, with a big knife of more than 100 catties, it is incredible to think about it. Li Zhongxuan had one more thought in his heart, if Wu Bi met this person, he would perform "Heaven and Earth Dragon Walk", and if he could hold on for a while, he would hold on for a while, as long as he was close to him, he would definitely be defeated by him in an instant.

Ye Tianhao, who was only listening to the side, continued: "Seventh Elder Yuwen, this time, a total of thirty-one young talents from the two clans participated in the martial arts competition, plus Zhong Xuan next to me, there are exactly thirty-two. I don't know who you like?"

Elder Yuwen Qi stroked the beard on his chin, and then muttered, "Last year, there was a young patriarch who participated, and all the young people could only compete for a second position. This year, the young patriarch did not participate, so the first and second must be Fengyue and Shui Yi. ”

Yuwen Fengyue, who was named "Martial Idiot", is naturally extraordinary! And Dongfang Shuiyi is the daughter of the patriarch of the Dongfang clan, with outstanding talent, she can be described as the lady of the sky, and last year she won the second place in the big competition!

Ye Tianhao nodded: "Last year, Dongfang Shuiyi defeated several people in a row and walked to the position of Yuwen Fenghua's opponent, but he was not the enemy of Yuwen Fenghua, and it is estimated that even I will not be an opponent in time." ”

At this time, Elder Yuwen Qi said in a low voice: "The young patriarch's talent can be said to be unprecedented, and there is no one in the future, and even now I am only compared to him, or even slightly inferior. ”

Ye Tianhao was taken aback when he heard this, although Yuwen Fenghua defeated Yuwen Yingxiao, the strongest Yuwen Hawk on the surface of the Yuwen clan. However, the Seventh Elder Yuwen in front of him is not comparable to Yuwen Yingxiao! He is the strongest person in the Yuwen clan in the previous generation, he has been immersed in martial arts for decades, and his martial arts have long been unfathomable, and even Ye Tianhao is not his opponent! Ye Tianhao's face changed slightly, and he tilted his head slightly to the side of the Seventh Elder Yuwen, and then asked in a low voice: "How many moves did the Seven Elders fight with Yuwen Fenghua before they realized that they were not such a person?"

Elder Yuwen Qi replied, "That was a few months ago, and he came to me to ask me for some questions about martial arts. When I saw this, I sparred with him, and I didn't think that the more I fought, the more surprised I became! At first, I was just facing him with one hand, and I didn't know that he could easily deal with it. Seeing this, I used my hands to be more serious, but I didn't expect him to still deal with it very easily. In the end, I used my best light body kung fu to step on the clouds, and then used my best ghost crying palm, who would have thought that he would also use the cloud steps and be able to keep up with my body, and at the same time use the wolf howl fist to fight with me! We fought more than a thousand moves, and gradually I found that my body was not as fast as his, and I knew that I had lost! Then I stopped thinking about continuing to fight. After speaking, he sighed slightly, and then smiled again: "But my grandson is very talented, even if he is not as good as the young patriarch, it is still very easy to surpass me!"

Ye Tianhao also sighed, in this world, people are really more popular than people, he knows what his martial arts are in his weak crown year, Yuwen Fenghua is worthy of being the most talented person in Dongtian for thousands of years.

Seeing this, Ye Tianhao nodded slightly, and then replied: "The Seventh Elder does have a good grandson! It's a pity that the people in the Cave Heaven can't leave easily, otherwise Liufeng will definitely become a powerful party if he reaches the world!"

Elder Yuwen Qi said with a smile: "We can live in the cave heaven is a blessing given by the immortals, birth, old age, sickness and death are all in the cave sky, and few people want to go out." And in the world, there are many tricks to deceive and see people, which is really not suitable for me to wait! Brother Ye has to go out every year, and in the end, he will not return to the cave, he must have the same opinion as me. ”

Ye Tianhao sighed with emotion: "That's nature, it's really much easier to live in the cave." The sun rises, the sun sets, there is no war, people do not have to be displaced, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a fairyland on earth!"

This time, there are 16 members of the Yuwen clan and 15 members of the Dongfang clan, and the battle for the top spot must be exciting!" Elder Yuwen Qi smiled: "The lottery is about to be drawn, and I don't know who Liufeng and Zhongxuan will meet." ”

Ye Tianhao continued: "Yes, Great Elder Yuwen has already come to power, and these young people are about to come to the stage to draw lots. ”

At this time, I saw a spirited old man walking up in one of the rings, also dressed in black clothes and beard, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes!

Great Elder Yuwen looked around for a moment and then said softly: "This martial arts competition will be presided over by me, the rules are very simple, there are a total of thirty-two people in the martial arts competition, each person will draw a lot on the stage, one to thirty-two, two to thirty-one, and so on, and finally sixteen people will be selected!" Although his voice was weak, it was very clear to the ears of everyone present, which showed the depth of his skills.

In the stands on the side, Li Zhongxuan said softly to Ye Liuying: "Then how can the remaining sixteen people compare?" Ye Liuying frowned slightly: "How do I know? Listen to what he says next!"

At this time, Grand Elder Yuwen continued: "The remaining sixteen people draw lots again, No. 1 vs. No. 16, No. 2 vs. No. 15, and so on and then select the top eight! After the top eight, the draw continues, No. 1 to No. 4 is a group, No. 5 to No. 8 is the second group, the difference is No. 1 vs. No. 2, No. 3 vs. No. 4, No. 5 vs. No. 6, No. 7 vs. No. 8! Then the winner of the first group and the second group play the semi-finals, and then the losers in the semi-finals fight for the third place, and the winner of the two finals finally fights! I've already stated the rules, although it's inevitable that there are some unfairness, but sometimes luck is also part of strength, if you draw a weaker opponent, remember not to get carried away, if you draw a strong opponent, don't complain!"

At this time, the audience was unusually quiet, waiting for Grand Elder Yuwen to continue to speak, because he was going to say what the reward for this martial arts competition would be!

Great Elder Yuwen cleared his throat and continued: "This time, the first person in the martial arts competition will reward the immortal treasure 'Mo Yu Armor' left by the guardian immortals in the clan, the specific function of this treasure is not yet known, only that swords and guns do not enter water and fire, and it is very suitable for self-defense!

Everyone in the field took a breath of cool air, swords and guns are invulnerable, water and fire are invulnerable, if you wear it on your body to fight with people, even if you have a blade, you are not afraid at all! Not to mention that this is the treasure armor left by the immortals, maybe there are other wonderful uses!

No one dared to speak, and they were all quietly waiting for Grand Elder Yuwen to continue speaking. The room was unusually quiet, and even a needle hitting the ground would attract everyone's attention. Grand Elder Yuwen was very satisfied with the performance of everyone present, and said loudly with his left hand: "The second place winner is a sword obtained by the ancestors of the clan in the early years of their travels in the world, called the 'Chongwu Sword', the whole body is green and blue like water waves, and it is extremely sharp and unusually blown!" The sound of swords was like thunder, and many young people's faces were hot, especially young women!

Grand Elder Yuwen said with a smile: "The third place is the 'Qi Gathering Pill' that our Dongtian Clan Patriarch personally refined ten pieces, as for its effect, you must all know it! The top eight can also get a 'Qi Gathering Pill'!"

The room instantly became noisy, and everyone began to talk to each other. Many young people were ruddy-faced, and there seemed to be fire in their eyes, including Li Zhongxuan. The Qi Gathering Pill can be described as a treasure for those who practice martial arts, although it is not as real as the treasure armor sword, but it can improve the cultivation of true qi, and one is worth a year of cultivation for ordinary people. It's just that refining the Qi Gathering Pill is too harsh, and it is necessary to take countless rare herbs to boil it first, and then it is necessary for a person with a profound True Qi cultivation to inject his True Qi into it, and there must be no mistake in the slightest, otherwise the previous efforts will be abandoned and he will not be able to become a Dan.

After a while, Li Zhongxuan smiled bitterly, the top eight can get such a divine pill. It seemed that there was no hope for him, he looked at Yuwen Liufeng next to him, only to see that his fists were clenched, his eyes seemed to be on fire, and he didn't know if he could get the top three!

Grand Elder Yuwen coughed lightly twice, and the room instantly became quiet. He continued: "I have clearly informed you of the rules and rewards of this martial arts competition, so let the Great Elder of the East introduce this literary competition. As he spoke, he looked at an old man in Tsing Yi in the field.

I saw that this clear-looking Dongfang Great Elder moved under his feet, and his figure flashed to the ring, and his light skills were naturally excellent! He looked around and said with a smile: "I will preside over the Wenbi this time! The rules of our Wenbi are quite simple, and there are not many changes from previous years, except that there are a few more judges!"

Li Zhongxuan looked puzzled when he heard this, and then looked at Ye Liuying beside him: "What were the rules of Wenbi in previous years, I haven't heard you say it!" Ye Liuying clenched his small fist and gently hammered him, and smiled softly: "Wenbi is very simple, you will know later." ”

Li Zhongxuan was about to speak, when the voice of the Great Elder of the East came: "There are more than a dozen tables in the ring, and each table has a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and you young talents can write down the poems in your chest, remember to sign your name, and then hand it over to the judges on the side for scoring." There are ten masters in total, and each of them can give each poem a maximum of 100 points, and the lowest score is 0 points. Remove one lowest score and one highest score, and then take the sum of the scores of the other eight masters as their final score!"

Wenbi's rules are almost the same as in previous years, except that the five masters have changed to ten masters, so everyone didn't react much when they heard this, just listened quietly, and what they cared about most was the final reward. Speaking of this, the Great Elder of the East paused, and then looked at Li Zhongxuan in the stands with a smile, he didn't know the rules of Wenbi in previous years, Li Zhongxuan looked frightened, and hurriedly made a look at him from afar.

The Great Elder of the East continued to smile and said, "As for the ...... who rewarded the first person in Wenbi this time," he paused suddenly, looking at the appearance of everyone's atmosphere, he nodded with satisfaction and continued: "The first person in Wenbi will reward the 'Judge Magic Pen'." This pen is the pen of Yuwen Pan Pan, the ancestor of the Yuwen clan in the early years, and Yuwen Pan Pan also knows that the "Judge Pen" in the library is created by him!"

As soon as he said this, Li Zhongxuan listened to the person next to him say: "It turned out to be the judge's magic pen, this pen is the weapon used by the ancestor Yuwen Pan Pan in the world, I don't know how much blood is stained with martial arts heroes, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a divine weapon, this time the two clans are really bloody." ”

Li Zhongxuan nodded silently beside him, even if the divine weapon has little to do with him, it is estimated that it has little to do with him.

I heard the Great Elder of the East continue: "The second place is a jar of 'Bamboo Leaf Green' that I have treasured for a long time, which was given by a friend in my world in the early years, and it has been more than 20 years ago, and I have been reluctant to drink!"

The Great Elder of the East nodded, very satisfied with the performance of these scholars, scholars should drink and compose poems, this is the romance of scholars, others do not understand! But Li Zhongxuan on the side is ignorant, it is just a jar of bamboo leaf green wine, why is everyone so big reaction? At this moment, he has not drunk alcohol at this moment, he naturally does not understand the fun of drinking!

The Great Elder of the East looked at these high-spirited men and said with a smile: "Third place, a set of royal tea sets in the world! Scholars are the most jealous and impetuous, and drinking tea can help people nourish their temperament!" Li Zhongxuan nodded when he heard this, and muttered in a low voice: "Tea is obviously better than wine, why is wine in front?"

"Okay, I've also introduced the rules and rewards of this Wenbi. Wenbi has always been before Wubi, so everyone who participated in Wenbi came forward to leave your poems!As for your ranking, let these ten masters judge it!"

The Great Elder Yuwen on the side also laughed loudly: "Wu Bi is after Wen Bi, you are good sons and daughters of the lottery, wait for a while, and wait for our future masters to finish writing poems and then draw lots!"

Hearing what the two elders said, the young people in the stands around him looked solemn one by one, and then walked towards the Wenbi ring, Li Zhongxuan took a deep breath, and then slowly got up and walked up behind everyone.

In a short time, a young man with a brush stood in front of each table, while the surrounding people waited in a quiet line.
