The next day, the ten-storey building under the rivers and lakes has already gathered like a tide, the morning sun swept the red tiles at the head of Luoyang City, making the whole Tianxiang Building unusually tall and majestic. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe snow on the outer stone walls of the high-rise has long since receded, leaving a deep trace, as if it were the mark of time.

At this moment, Gu Chao and the four disciples of Tianxianglou stood respectfully on the stone steps outside the main entrance, greeting the guests who walked into the building one by one. The five-year Eight Factions Martial Arts is about to kick off, and this session is the gathering of the heads of the eight factions, and the heroes in the rivers and lakes are even more unwilling to miss this martial arts event, and even Su Yue and others, who were ordered to inspect Luoyang, are also in the crowd.

"Invitation" A disciple of Tianxianglou stopped an old man in rough clothes who was about to break into the door, and shouted, "If you don't have an invitation, I won't let you in." "In order to ensure the normal progress of the eight factions, Tianxianglou will send invitations to prestigious sects or gangs in the rivers and lakes before each session of the martial arts, and everyone will enter the building with the invitation cards to watch the martial arts.

"Big brother, do we have an invitation?" In the crowd, Ji Feng looked at the door of Tianxiang Building, and saw that someone was stopped by the disciple at the door, so he hurriedly asked Su Yue in front of him.

"Before leaving, His Royal Highness King Fu prepared an invitation card for us, you see" Chai Wuming took out a red hollow bronze medal from his waist, and the front and back were engraved with the word "sky" and the word "incense".

"Why didn't I?" Ji Feng looked displeased and snorted coldly.

The corners of Chai Wuming's mouth moved slightly, and he handed him the invitation card in his hand, "You have to keep this invitation, don't lose it." ”

"Okay, I'll do it, don't worry. Ji Feng took the bronze medal from Chai Wuming's hand and looked at the pattern on it carefully, "Hey, why is there a blessing character in the lower right corner" He asked curiously.

In order to prevent others from impersonating, each bronze medal has a special mark on it, and this Fu character is specifically referring to the Fu Wangfu. Chai Wuming walked in front of him and whispered in a low voice.

In the Tianxiang Building, the entire hall was already overcrowded, and the disciples of each faction walked upstairs along the side corridor of the hall, and every other zhang, there were two disciples of the Tianxiang Building standing on both sides of the wooden ladder corridor, and everyone walked through the wooden ladder corridor to the Feixue Pavilion on the third floor. On both sides of the iron gate of the attic, which was several feet large, stood a row of disciples in red robes, and the disciples of various factions entered the Flying Snow Pavilion from the iron gate.

Feixue Pavilion is located on the third floor of Tianxiang Building, indeed the largest layer of the whole Tianxiang Building, it protrudes outward for more than ten lengths, and there are huge stones under the attic, which shrouds the streets around Tianxiang Building. The entire Feixue Pavilion surrounded the main building of Tianxiang Pavilion, and the people who walked into the third floor walked through the towering wooden ladder under the guidance of the disciples of Tianxiang Pavilion and came to the high platform on the top floor of Feixue Pavilion.

On the high platform at the top of the Flying Snow Pavilion, there was a crowd of people, and eight people slowly walked from the other side, and the disciples of the eight sects standing at the front knelt down and saluted. Shaolin Fang Yan Abbot, Wudang Lingxu Zhenren, Huashan Wang Zhangmen, Qingcheng Yu Zhangmen, Hengshan Qingxuzi, Hengshan Jian Zhangmen, Songshan Yun Zhangmen, Emei Zijin Zhenren took the main seat of the high platform in turn, and they sat down one after another.

The pennants around the high platform were agitated in the wind, and the people in the rivers and lakes gathered around the high platform, and on the wide martial arts platform in the middle, stood the disciples of the various factions who participated in the eight factions and some other knights who signed up for the competition.

Wang Chengde's eyes widened slightly, and he looked at everyone in the audience, his eyes were full of pride, and he looked to the left and right, and did not see Cao Haotian's figure, so he asked the disciple of Tianxianglou beside him in a low voice, "Why hasn't Senior Brother Haotian come yet?"

The disciple beside him shook his head and said softly, "The disciple doesn't know, but you can ask Senior Brother Gu Chao on the far left, maybe he knows." ”

Wang Chengde waved his hand to Gu Chao beside Yun Mo and motioned for him to come over. Gu Chao hurriedly walked behind Yun Mo, Jianyu, Qingxuzi and Yu Qingyun, came to Wang Chengde's side, and asked in a low voice, "Master Wang, I don't know what to do with finding a disciple?"

"The martial arts are about to start, why don't you see your deputy landlord and Miss Murong?" Wang Chengde looked at the young disciple in front of him, his face turned grim, and he asked in a low voice.

"This... It is said that Second Master Cao had been in the room last night to recuperate, and the disciple sent someone to ask him. Gu Chao looked at Wang Chengde with a straight face with a nervous expression.

Wang Chengde nodded and sat up slightly. Gu Chao hurriedly ran to the stage, walking from the corridor in the crowd to the Flying Snow Pavilion.

Seeing that the heads of various factions were seated one after another, the noisy voices of everyone in the audience stopped. But the meeting did not start for a long time, and everyone began to discuss privately again.

At this time, a green shadow flashed on the left side of the high platform, and Cao Haotian walked quickly to the main seat, and the heads of various factions fell on him one after another. Wang Chengde got up and stepped forward and asked, "Senior Brother Cao, all the heroes in the world are waiting for you here." There was a slight irony in his tone, as the host, he was late on the day of the meeting.

Cao Haotian walked quickly to his side Wang Chengde and looked at the heads of various factions, with a smile on his face. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Cao is late, let you wait. ”

The heads of the other seven factions got up one after another, and after a while of greetings, everyone took their seats again. Cao Haotian stood in front of the heads of the various factions, looked at the knights of the rivers and lakes around the high platform, and turned his gaze back to the disciples of the various factions and other contestants on the competition platform, "You are all the top masters of each faction, and you are the new generation of leaders in martial arts. More than 100 years ago, Mr. Murong, the second owner of Tianxianglou, joined forces with the heads of Shaolin Temple, Wudang faction, Huashan faction, Hengshan faction, Hengshan faction, Qingcheng faction, Songshan faction and Emei faction to promote the eight factions to meet the martial arts, and strive to protect the right way in the world and eradicate the evil demons in the rivers and lakes. The road of martial arts should be diligent, but the world's martial arts should not be complacent because of the views of the sect, so our eight factions will martial arts is to urge the masters of all factions to learn from each other, so that our martial arts righteousness is stronger. In this year's Eight Factions Martial Arts, we even invited masters from outside the Eight Factions to take a test, just to make the martial arts righteous way chivalry support each other. ”

"I see" There were bursts of exclamations from the crowd around the high platform, and everyone on the competition platform even clasped their fists and saluted each other.

Cao Haotian looked at the reaction of everyone in the audience, with a hint of joy in his eyes, and he waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. "This year's Eight Factions Martial Arts, we have invited the heads of all factions to attend, the purpose is to make our Eight Factions Martial Arts discover more rookies in the rivers and lakes and benefit the entire martial arts together. ”

Hearing this, Qian Duoduo, who was standing on the competition platform, couldn't help but look at Tang Yuebai on the side, looking at her without the slightest expression on her face, as if the surrounding tide of shouts had nothing to do with her. The shouts at the top of the Feixue Pavilion of Tianxianglou resounded throughout Luoyang City, and even the other knights who had no chance to witness the martial arts of the Eight Sects in the Mingyi Square all let out envious sighs.

"Since the number of people in the competition has more than doubled compared to the past, this year's Eight Factions will change the way they want to challenge freely, and we will arrange the competition according to everyone's registration. Cao Haotian continued, his loud voice overshadowed the voices of everyone on the high platform, and the heads of the various factions behind him also nodded with satisfaction.
