Chapter Thirty-Nine: Yuanli Square
The next day, Yuanli Plaza.
At this moment, the source force square was already crowded with people, and the major mining areas of the Divine Sword Sect had already divided their own selection areas, and the miners were wearing tattered shirts, and some of them had some dirt accumulated over the years, which was obviously different from the exquisitely dressed disciples of the Divine Sword Sect, and the two seemed to be people from different worlds.
Lin Chen walked in from the main gate of the square, many miners have lined up in the divided mining area, he has experienced such a battle before, the eyes of many miners in line are shining, today is different, their spirits are a little more vibrant, today is a big day for them to leap into the dragon gate and change their lives!
If you can be selected as an outer disciple, then you can really leap into the sky, and you can really leave Nuha Star!
Lin Chen looked left and right, found the location of his mining area, his footsteps moved slightly, his steps were vigorous, and he continued to walk forward.
Suddenly, several people walked in not far away, one of them was a woman in a purple dress, and several black-clothed disciples were surrounding her, who seemed to be enthusiastically introducing her to the venue.
The moment he saw the woman, Lin Chen was shocked, wasn't this woman the one that Lin Chen saw Zixuan when he was hunting demonic beasts that day......
Lin Chen only felt that the blood was rising all over his body at this moment, and his heart was beating even harder, he witnessed the whole process of the little scumbag wanting to refine the woman into a female corpse puppet, if Lin Chen hadn't appeared in time, I am afraid that the woman in the purple skirt would have already died.
Lin Chen immediately turned his head and walked in the opposite direction, he didn't want to run into her now, Lin Chen clearly remembered that the woman was an elder of the Divine Sword Sect, and her realm had reached the level of breaking free from the shackles, and now Lin Chen had recovered her cultivation in front of her, and Lin Chen's strength was like an ant that could be manipulated at will in front of her.
Although Lin Chen guessed that Zixuan's personality was not bad, who knew how she would react when she saw Lin Chen, if she was angry, she would immediately arrest Lin Chen, and Lin Chen would have no power to resist at all.
Hearing only a faint voice from behind, Lin Chen walked forward quickly, not daring to look back.
"Elder Zixuan, please here, we have arranged for all the miners from the Dongyi Mining Area to the Dongshi Mining Area to come here for the source force test, whoever you want to find will definitely be able to find it, but I don't know if the person you are looking for is the miner I sent!"
The expression on the purple-dressed woman's face did not change, but she said lightly.
"I'm sorry for you, I'm not sure if the person I'm looking for is there, stop by today to take a look, and I can find the best. ”
At the moment when Zi Xuan spoke, a slightly familiar figure seemed to flash in front of him, Zi Xuan just wanted to look at it, but his figure quickly disappeared and then in the vast flow of people, and he couldn't really see it anymore.
That back seems to be ......!
Zi Xuan walked two steps ahead of the others, but she couldn't find the familiar back anymore, and the black-clothed outer disciple behind hurriedly chased after her and asked hurriedly.
"Elder Zixuan, have you seen that person?"
Zi Xuan shook her head and said, "No, maybe I'm looking at the flowers, I'm going to rush back to join Elder Xu, so I won't stay here." ”
A group of black-clothed outer disciples suddenly showed a respectful look on their faces.
"Congratulations to Elder Zixuan!"
......
Lin Chen quickly blended into the flow of people, he didn't expect to meet Zixuan here, and when he walked into the distance, he looked back and found that Zixuan was no longer in the crowd, Lin Chen suddenly turned around again and walked towards his Dongba mining area.
There has been a long queue outside the test area of the East Eight Mining Area, and the miners who used to mine together every day were consciously lined up one after another, although Lin Chen was not familiar with everyone, but others knew Lin Chen, Lin Chen was also a person in the East Eight Mining Area, he was the only one who could choose the mining site independently, and the mining speed was known to everyone, and he was the fastest person.
Lin Chen alone can cover more than half of the source stone output of the entire mining area in a year, this rate, it is difficult for others not to know, and secretly everyone calls Lin Chen the king of mining.
"Well, you see, the mining king is here. ”
"Lin Chen?"
"Yes, why are you so slow to react, with your snail-like reaction speed, I estimate that this selection of outer disciples is hopeless, you better go home and farm." ”
"Why did you go home to farm, your house is all fields!"
"Don't make trouble, don't make trouble, the big evil star is behind you, you say, can this mining king not be chosen this time?"
"Hmph, what are you kidding me, if he can choose, I'll eat the mine I dug up!"
"Yes, Supervisor Liu went to his house yesterday, he must have taken special care, although he didn't miss an arm or leg, but such a capable mining king, can he let him go back to the Divine Sword Sect?
"That's what you said, but this assessment still depends on talent and source power, and simple mining is ......"
"Nonsense, let's just say that it's not blocked, a pound of wild boar as the base, I'm going to open!"
"Okay, I'll bet on a wild boar, fifty kilograms, bet on this kid definitely won't choose!"
"Bet, bet!"
......
In this way, without Lin Chen knowing, others have already gambled on his selection results, Lin Chen occasionally heard some words, but he didn't care, the queue in front of him was already lined up.
From the high platform in the center of Yuanli Square, a voice that could be heard by everyone present, the volume was not high, but everyone could hear it very clearly.
"Ahem, I'm the selection elder this time, Elder Xu, everyone can come to me if they have any questions about this selection, but I don't want anyone to have any questions, understand?" Glancing at the audience below, Elder Xu touched the beard under his chin and said,
"It's not the first time for everyone to participate in the selection of disciples, even if it's the first time, you just follow the command of the test venue, I won't explain much, and now I announce that this Divine Sword Sect Outer Disciple Selection Contest has officially begun!"
With this announcement, the venues in the various districts below have begun to test, and the East Eight Mining Area where Lin Chen is located is far away from the central platform of Yuanli Square, but Lin Chen still saw the woman in the purple skirt standing next to Elder Xu, it was Elder Zixuan.
It's just that Zixuan didn't say anything.
Lin Chen came back to his senses and turned to look at the test bench in his mining area, at this moment, a black-clothed outer disciple was standing next to the test bench, with an indifferent expression commanding one miner after another to go up to the source force test.
This time the test instrument is similar to the last time, it is a large round milky white stone, after the miners below walk up, they all stick to the round stone with their hands, if the round stone shines brightly, and lasts for a period of time, it means that the talent is excellent, or the source force sensing ability is very strong, you can be admitted!
Otherwise, it is eliminated.
The black-clothed outer disciple called one miner after another to go up impatiently, in his opinion, these miners were not worth his time wasting on selection, such a large number of miners, it would be very good to be able to select a person with comparable talent.
But so what? What if you can be selected, if you don't become an outer disciple like yourself, can you still directly become an inner disciple?
Lin Chen was calm and relaxed in the team, he was trying to run the Hidden Source Technique, so that he could completely hide the aura on his body, even if he was a person with a higher realm than him, he couldn't see what his actual realm was.
But in the long queue, it was because of Lin Chen that the pot exploded, and many people knew that there was a gambling game, specifically for whether Lin Chen could be selected, and the odds were as high as 1:100!
If you bet on Lin Chen to be selected, bet on a pound of wild boar, you can get a hundred pounds of wild boar if you win, and if you bet on a wild boar to win, you can get a hundred wild boars!
The odds are a bit high, and it's almost impossible to happen!
But if Lin Chen knew that someone was betting on him, he would definitely bet all his belongings on himself, but Lin Chen was addicted to cultivating the hidden source technique, and he didn't care about the gambling at all, he didn't know that there was such a thing.
The long queue in front of them took turns very quickly, one after another miners went up to test, and after a while, they walked down with a depressed face and a depressed face, this is Lin Chen's personal experience last year, in the face of fateful decisions, many people are powerless.
How many people can really control their fate?
A few hours passed, and there were only one or two people left in front of Lin Chen, only to see that although some people failed, they still stayed, just because they were all betting on Lin Chen, and most of the bets were obviously that Lin Chen was eliminated.
After the two people in front of him finished turning, the black-clothed outer disciple finally called Lin Chen, "Next one to come up!"
Everyone held their breath, and their eyes recovered a little from the frustration just now, even if they failed, at least there were people who accompanied them to fail, at least Lin Chen was considered to be such a person.
