Chapter 294: Drawing lots
Meishan Peak is a remote place in the Holy Maiden Palace, and the demonic energy is so thin that even the entire Meishan Peak is rarely visited by monks.
But this year is the big competition of Shenyue Palace once in a hundred years, and there is a certain reason why Meishan Peak was selected as the venue for the big competition.
Thousands of years ago, the power of a demon god realm was in this Meishan Peak to cross the tribulation, and in the end, although the tribulation failed and the body died, this Meishan Peak became a mysterious place in this Holy Maiden Palace.
Originally, the demonic qi of the entire Shenyue Palace belonged to the cultivation holy land, but only this Meishan Peak had become a barren and barren land.
One of the reasons is that the monks of the Demon God Period formed a vacuum here after the tribulation, not only countless spiritual grass and spirit trees are difficult to plant, but even the monks who cultivate here are unknowingly infected with demonic obstacles, and finally they can't cultivate an inch, and after a long time, this place becomes a no-man's land.
As for who the great demon god who survived here thousands of years ago, Zhushan did not know.
On this day, Meishan Peak is crowded with people, and there are no less than tens of thousands of monks in Zhushan just at a glance.
And there are only a few hundred monks who participated in the Divine Moon Competition!
Most of the rest of the monks came to observe, and there were some other sect monks, so that the people here were the most prosperous in the past few thousand years.
~~~~~~
Zhushan followed behind the female cultivators of the Holy Maiden Palace, although there were also many male disciples in the Holy Maiden Palace, but Zhushan felt that he was standing out from the crowd, which was also considered a psychological reason.
Because Zhushan was the only man standing beside Gong Yue, this scene was already in the spotlight in front of the monks of the Holy Maiden Palace, and it attracted a lot of attention in front of the other monks of the Shenyue Palace.
Zhushan was observed by so many people for a while, and his face was a little ugly, and then Gong Yue next to him saw something, and then smiled: "Zhu Daoyou." It doesn't have to be like this, now you and my Holy Maiden Palace are grasshoppers on a rope, and you are already one of us!"
As soon as this full stop was spoken, Zhushan knew that he had fallen for their evil.
This is tantamount to tying Zhushan to their chariot, and the Holy Maiden's Palace is now also a remnant candle in the wind, which will be extinguished at some point. Zhushan secretly inquired about some news, and he knew some information about this Holy Maiden Palace.
Gong Yue was intercepted and killed before, and there was the handwriting of this person from the Shenyue Palace, so it seems that it is a bit abrupt for Zhushan to join the Holy Maiden Palace.
But now that the arrow is on the bow, Zhushan has no choice.
Today, Zhushan wants to hurry over, and after helping the Holy Maiden Palace win the ranking, he will leave this place of right and wrong!
Among the tens of thousands of monks, they were divided into four phalanxes, among which the Hall of Elders had the largest number, and more than 10,000 people were divided into the west. There are only more than 3,000 monks in the Shenyue Hall, and it is located in the north.
There were more than 8,000 monks in the Holy Maiden Palace, and the monks of the outer sects who came to the Shenyue Palace to observe the ceremony were divided into the south.
At noon, when everyone was almost here, one person came out of the monks of the Holy Maiden Palace, and Zhushan also knew it, it was the Jade True Venerable.
At this time, it is normal for a Demon Venerable Stage monk to preside over it......
I saw Venerable Yuzhen walk up to the stage. He glanced at the tens of thousands of monks present and said with a smile: "The once-in-a-century Divine Moon Great Contest is held today at the Meishan Peak of my Holy Maiden Palace. On behalf of the Friars of the Virgin Palace, I would like to welcome all the monks present!"
After a pause, she continued: "As for why you chose this place, I believe you have also sensed the difference, this Meishan Peak used to be the place where a demon god of my Holy Maiden Palace could cross the tribulation, but after the tribulation, the heaven and earth vitality here became thinner, and it is rumored that the power of my demon god here has left some true traces of ascension!"
As soon as Venerable Yuzhen said this. Everyone on the field was in an uproar.
Everyone felt that their demonic qi was a little depressed before, but they didn't dare to say a word because they were also full of questions in the place of Shenyue Palace, and many people were talking about it at this time.
Swish!
Venerable Yuzhen raised his right hand to signal, and the field suddenly fell silent.
"Although the monks who participate in the Shenyue Contest here will be subject to certain restrictions, it is precisely this that makes it fairer to everyone. Next, I will announce the list of monks who will participate this time!" shouted the Jade True Venerable.
The monks of the Hall of Elders are white and sorrowful......
......
Shenyue Hall monks Wu Hao, Yu Buyi, Wang Tianle......
......
Gong Yue of the Holy Maiden Palace......
......
By the time Venerable Yuzhen finished reciting the names of hundreds of people, the entire arena was silent, and then Venerable Yuzhen waved his hand and flew out of a huge funnel from his sleeve, and then only heard her say:
"Now please ask the monks who have just read their names to draw lots in turn, the number of people in this Shenyue Great Contest is a total of three hundred and sixty, so it will be one against three hundred and sixty, and two against three hundred and fifty, in turn......"
Next, there was an endless stream of monks coming here to draw lots, and Zhushan noticed one thing, there were no late-stage Demon Infant monks among them, and after thinking about it, Zhushan remembered that Venerable Yuzhen had also said that the late-stage monks of the Demon Infant were directly promoted to the second stage.
When it was Zhushan's turn, he walked out of the crowd, not paying any attention to the gaze of some eyes, Zhushan's figure moved and came to the front of the Yuzhen Venerable, and with a grab, Zhushan looked at the number.
"One hundred and eight!"
This means that he will be playing against Brother 253, but that number doesn't seem to have appeared yet.
But Zhushan didn't think about it anymore, and after about half an hour everyone had finished drawing lots, Venerable Yuzhen looked at the funnel and shouted: "Since several disciples can't come to participate in the big competition, how many of these three hundred and sixty people will have byes!"
"Next, the numbers of the monks who will be announced to be promoted by bye are: No. 17, No. 108, and No. 312!"
Venerable Yuzhen said this, and the audience suddenly exclaimed!
The importance of this Shenyue Dabi is self-evident, and these three people actually abstained and didn't come, so directly let these three lucky people advance directly, you must know that there are rich rewards for entering the top 80 of the Dabi, and the first round of byes means that you have almost half of the chance to win the ranking!
Zhushan was stunned, he didn't expect that the one hundred and eight he drew would have a bye!
This was an unexpected surprise for him, Gong Yue next to him saw Zhushan's face change, and she asked, "These people are really lucky, Zhushan Daoyou, what is your number?"
As soon as Zhu Shan stretched out his right hand and looked at the one hundred and eight ball, Gong Yue's face suddenly became wonderful.
She pursed her lips and smiled, "Congratulations, so you have a good chance of making it into the top fifty, and maybe we can still be in the same ring by then!"
Zhushan looked at her smile, but he couldn't smile at all.
"It's just a little bit of luck, in my opinion, this time the Shenyue Dabi is not simple!" Zhushan suddenly sighed inexplicably. (To be continued.) )
