Chapter 145 Getting Started
Walking out of the city in one breath, seeing the setting sun go down the mountain, at this time, the city gate outside the city was already brightly lit, and the voices of people were buzzing.
The square in front of the city gate is usually flat, but now I saw many temporary buildings rising from the ground, and a very lively market was formed in the middle of the buildings. When I first entered the city, because the sky was still bright, I didn't pay much attention to it.
Looking at it now, these buildings are mainly used to provide accommodation, food and drink for people participating in the talent conference, and the conditions are very simple. The place to live is just a row of simple tents set up, like chicken coops, one next to the other. The facilities for selling food and drink are even simpler. Just set up a shelf, put cooking utensils for food and drink and put a few tables and chairs on it. No one shouts, but the business is extremely hot. Full of all kinds of people. The store owner and the guys are very busy.
Like everyone else, Huang Qi led the two of them to find a small shop and sat down. Then he shouted to the back: "Three bowls of bamboo shoot noodles! A pot of good tea!" Then he smiled and looked at the two of them and said, "Hehe, tell me?" Do you have any questions? Along the way, I saw your suspicious appearance. "
"I'm not afraid that Brother Huang will laugh at you, why did you lie about the address of your hometown and mine just now?" Liu Qianlang asked.
Huang Qi picked up a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "You two don't know, not everyone can get this Immortal Breath assessment form, and one of my uncles didn't get it fifteen years ago. When we entered the referral envoy's office, You have all seen that many people came out empty-handed. Why? Because their status is low, their families live in remote areas, they have no family background, and there is no introduction of famous people.
We belong to this group, but now there is a chance that no one in Qingliu Kingdom knows that there is a Queen of Strange Fragrance in Longyun Villa outside Longyun Mountain. It has become a household name. Now everything that has something to do with Longyun Villa is easy to handle.
Speaking of which, the two of you are lucky to catch up with such an opportunity. Otherwise, in another fifteen years, there will be no chance of receiving this Immortal Breath Assessment Form, hehe! do you understand? "
"Oh!" Song Zhen sighed, and then asked: "Could it be that only people with status can participate in this Juying Conference!?"
"That's not true. The main reason is that there are too many participants. Don't look at the five or six thousand people who signed up here. This year seems to be more, but each of the four major sects only recruits more than 20 people per session. There are only a hundred new disciples in total, and the rest of the registrations are just for nothing. If they fail to go this time, they will pass the age of the next class, and there will be no chance again.
Therefore, everyone who participated in the Juying Conference tried their best to find another way to win the chance of success. In contrast, of course, the rich and the status have a better chance of winning. As for those like us with humble backgrounds, it is difficult! This kind of situation has caused bribery to become a common practice. If you give money or have a connection, the referrer will take a high look at you and successfully register you in the register. I just sent it away for a reason. "Huang Qi replied.
After hearing this, Liu Qianlang smiled and said: "Hehe, I have to thank Brother Huang for this. If Brother Huang hadn't dealt with it, it seems that Song Zhen and I might not have this chance!"
"That's not necessarily the case, you are very popular, I heard the girl named Qianmeng speak well of you and Song Zhen in front of you in front of the referral envoy, but I didn't quite understand what she said, but when I heard her The boy wearing the black skull is you." Huang Qiling and the two said in surprise.
"Haha, so that girl is also interested in Qianlang." Song Zhen said with a smile.
Liu Qianlang smiled and said: "Don't talk nonsense, lest people hear it." Just as they were talking, a few figures sat down beside the three of them. A noble lady in her thirties.
I just heard Yun Huan say: "Oh! I really don't understand. I can't live in a restaurant with a Tianzi signboard, so I ran to such a ghost place to suffer!"
"Don't talk about it, what your sister said is also reasonable. Nowadays, young talents not only appear among the children of rich families, but also among these young people with ordinary conditions. It's better to be quiet, and in another hour it will be the time for free challenge and battle.
Yesterday, the boy from the Han family named Ni Tianleng actually possessed the strength of eighth-level qi training. He defeated two elders who were eighth-level qi-training and one elder who was nine-level qi-training. Now he is definitely a disciple of the four sects, but I don't know which sect he will choose. "The noble lady said.
"I want to challenge three masters today!" Qian Meng said lightly.
"Are you confident? If you fail, you will never have a chance, and you may even lose your life!" said the noble lady.
Qian Meng glanced at the crowd and said, "Don't worry, Aunt Liu Ting, I will succeed!"
Yun Huan stared at Qian Meng and said: "It's not necessary, why take such a big risk, do you still need to challenge me based on your aptitude and the background of the Changshui family?"
"I have to rely on my own strength!" Qian Meng said lightly. After that, the three of them stopped talking and lowered their heads to eat. While eating, Qianmeng glanced behind intentionally or unintentionally.
Liu Qianlang and the other three listened to their conversation, and secretly admired Qianmeng's character in their hearts.
Song Zhen stared at Huang Qi puzzled and asked, "What is a free challenge?"
"Hehe, you'll know later. During the first three days of each Juying Conference, there will be a one-hour free challenge opportunity every night at the quiet time. Those who participate in the challenge must have already registered, and must be in a Defeat three opponents in a row within 2 hours, otherwise you will be eliminated directly and not allowed to participate in the official Juying Conference. If you succeed in the challenge, you will be admitted directly, no interview is required, just choose the sect you want to join." Huang Qixiao on the road.
Liu Qianlang's handsome eyes flickered and he asked with a smile: "I don't know why Brother Huang is so familiar with the palace. Song Zhen and I were dizzy walking in it, but you advance and retreat naturally and easily?"
"This... I'm sorry I can't tell you for now." Huang Qi hesitated.
Seeing this, Liu Qianlang quickly changed the subject: "Eat quickly, the noodles are getting cold." So the three of them started eating noodles while chatting, looking at the crowd from far and near from time to time. Qianmeng and others beside him had already left. Of course, when they left, Qianmeng looked back at Liu Qianlang again, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Song Zhen had a big appetite. After eating a bowl of noodles, he felt that he was not full and ordered another bowl. After he finished eating, the three of them left their seats and walked towards the depths of the crowd.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was already quiet time. Many people gathered under a hillside southwest of the city gate, all of them looked up at the hillside.
Looking at Liu Qianlang through the torch of the city gate, there are two people facing each other on the hillside at this time, one is thin and slender, the other is short and puffy, and there is a group of cheering people not far behind them. The thin and slender man was shaking a fine steel fan in his hand, and stared at the short fat man with cold eyes.
The short fat man folded his hands empty in front of his chest, looking up at the thin man relentlessly.
"Sixth level of Qi training! Seventh level of Qi training!" Someone in the crowd sighed.
Someone in the crowd yelled, "Hurry up! What are you talking about!"
Hearing the sound, two people, one fat and one thin, moved their bodies at the same time, and then saw the thin man's fine steel fan shining in icy blue slowly drifting to a distance of about a foot above his head, and the fat man did not show weakness. A pure gold stick protruded from the head, one end trembled and groaned at the thin man, and the other end extended behind the fat man, and at the same time, the whole body was flowing and shining.
As soon as the fine steel fan was released from his hand, the thin man made a gesture with both hands, and pointed towards the fat man with the middle index finger of his right hand. In an instant, the fine steel fan cut towards the fat man like a whirlwind, the momentum was like lightning, and it was too late to see clearly. The fat man didn't move, and he groaned, and immediately the golden stick swayed into a disc of ultra-fine steel fan and flew towards him. There was only a sound of clang in midair, and the fine steel fan and the golden stick vibrated back.
The fat man glanced at the thin man, and said sarcastically, "I'm too old to be sick! You only have this little ability, be smart, and let me go down quickly, lest the young man will end up with you if he misses, and your family will have no children and grandchildren!"
Bing Taisui's face turned pale when he heard the words, only heard a crisp sound of teeth, and suddenly trembled all over, the fine steel fan suddenly became several times larger, and countless cold stars appeared in the blue color, shouted "Go to die!" The fan struck again, and when it was within a few feet of Fatty, the stainless steel fan suddenly disperse into countless sharp steel blades, and shot at Fatty with a sharp cold wind.
I saw that the fat man didn't care. After a jingle, the ground was covered with fragments of fine steel fans. Looking at the debris on the ground, the fat man felt complacent. He couldn't help laughing wildly, but when he was laughing wildly, cold blue lights suddenly flew from different directions behind his head, piercing the fat man's body and head in an instant.
Hearing a thud, the fat man fell down, and the thin man stepped forward, picked up the golden stick on the ground, glanced at it greedily, and then kicked the fat man's body to the back of the mountain. Looking back at the crowd coldly.
Seeing that the fat man was dead, all the people who were about to cheer for the fat man ran away with a whimper, and there were more people on the side of the thin man. Some people on the hillside were horrified, some disdainful, some applauded, most of them were waiting for the next step.
A graceful and icy girl stepped out from the crowd, holding an excellent sword in her hand, she floated to the opposite side of the thin man, which was the place where the fat man died.
"Wow!" Someone in the crowd exclaimed. "Changshuiyun Qianmeng!"
The thin man heard the shouts from the crowd, stared at Yun Qianmeng for a while, then turned around and disappeared into the darkness. The crowd exclaimed, "In the early stage of foundation establishment, what a high level of cultivation!"
Yun Qianmeng looked at the sick Tai Sui who had disappeared into the darkness, with a trace of resentment at the corner of his mouth, he snorted coldly, and with a wave of his hand, the sword came out of its sheath, and shot away with a condensed blue light, and flew back in a beautiful arc after a while scabbard. There was only a scream coming from the darkness, it was the thin man's voice.
"What a vicious girl, wait for me to meet you!" Following the voice, a person jumped up the hillside from the northwest corner of the crowd, holding a Yaoyue Handao in his hand. Yun Qianmeng took a closer look, and was a little surprised. She never expected that there would be a master with similar cultivation level as herself appearing this year. It seems better to be more careful.
