The bustling early morning passed quickly.
The bustling noon passed quickly.
When the sunset rose, the number of assessors queuing up had already decreased a lot. There were not many assessors left on the women's side, and there were not many assessors left on the men's side.
What can be passed has been passed long ago.
There’s no point trying again if you can’t pass.
Therefore, the flow of people in the evening is not large.
But it only refers to the reduction in the number of examiners.
There are still so many people watching the excitement. Maybe there are losers who are so sad that they are taken away early by their families or relatives, but there are still many people who have not left. Many young girls with upright personalities still stay nearby and express their disapproval or envy. Look at those peers who have passed the test.
On the earth platform, there were still many boys and girls, tall and short, standing there, but they were all cheering with excitement, and they were very active in greeting relatives or companions who were leaving quietly.
It’s okay to cheer.
This was an opportunity to change destiny, but it was seized by this group of people. They were all teenagers, even children. Cheering was the simplest way of expression, and it was indeed worth cheering to celebrate.
Therefore, the serious-faced middle-aged man sitting on the main seat did not say much.
But obviously, we can't keep cheering.
After all, the area of the earth platform is limited.
If every passer were allowed to stand on this platform and cheer, regardless of time or number of people, this platform would be filled sooner or later.
Looking at this Heyang City, there are very few people who have passed the customs.
But looking around the world, there are many people who have passed the customs!
At a quick glance, it was estimated that hundreds of people had passed through.
Count carefully.
"Three hundred and seventy-three."
Lu Yuan sat on the window sill and reported this accurate number.
Among the 373 people, only 12 people are still on the stage cheering and celebrating. They are also the latest people to clear the level in this hour.
The rest of the passers were taken off the stage in batches and placed behind the platform, which was completely opposite to the entrance of all examiners.
The boys and girls in this group also passed the assessment.
It's just that because the whole process is not over yet, there are still assessors who are ascending the steps and being tested, so they can't leave yet.
Most of them bring their own food, but a few of them don't bring their own, so they ask relatives to buy some food for them to eat back.
In short, leaving is definitely not possible.
On the one hand, the Qingyun Sect also uses this rule to protect these young people. The longer they live, the more people they meet, and the more they understand what human hearts are like.
On the other hand, most of these young people dare not leave. After all, no one knows whether the immortal of Qingyun Sect will abandon them after leaving, or whether he will take those who have not left directly up the mountain and leave them behind.
But honestly speaking, more than three hundred people is really not a lot!
There are seven main peaks in Qingyunmen.
After excluding the outlier Dazhu Peak, and then rounding up the number of disciples in this group, the remaining six main peaks will divide these disciples together, and the average number of new disciples on each peak will only be about seventy.
But considering that these disciples are trained as the backbone, with more than seventy people on each main peak, it seems that they can almost be trained in ten years.
All in all, nothing more and nothing less is just right.
After all, practitioners consume far more resources than ordinary people.
"You haven't left yet?!"
A strange yet familiar voice came from beside him.
Lu Yuan did not look back.
He knew that it was the young man who had talked to him before.
So Lu Yuan just asked slowly: "Aren't you leaving too? There are so many people below, why are you anxious? Those who didn't eat in the morning, were hungry at noon, finally had a hot meal, and could only stand Passers, do you want to join in?"
Hearing this, the young man smiled awkwardly, but soon said with confidence: "I think it's time for me to appear! I'm ready. What I hope now is to take the assessment as soon as possible!"
"Then why are you still nagging me here?"
Lu Yuan raised his eyelids, full of disgust: "Go down quickly, just like you said, following your own heart is the most important thing!"
"Thank you for your advice."
The young man saluted Lu Yuan, then turned and left the restaurant. Not long after, Lu Yuan saw this confident young man at the end of the queue.
"There are not many people left!"
Lu Yuan sighed quietly.
Immediately, the conversation changed.
"It's almost time for me to end too!"
As Lu Yuan spoke, he jumped back from the window sill under the strange looks of many losers, and then slowly walked out the door...
…
…
"What time is it?"
"Master, Youshi is approaching Xushi!"
Taoist Cangsong's serious face softened slightly. He looked at the disciples beside him and the disciples sent over by Shuiyue, and praised him with both salt and humiliation:
"not bad."
"If everything goes well, we can return to the mountain tonight."
"There are not many people left. If you want to buy something or bring something to your senior brothers and sisters, you can do it yourself now."
"But you only have half an hour."
"Fang Chao, you go too!"
"The rest of my Longshou Peak disciples will stay here."
Hearing this, except for the two unlucky ones from Longshou Peak, all the disciples looked happy, accepted the promise, and then left with their swords.
Going down the mountain is a right that only a few people have.
During the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Competition held every sixty years, some outstanding people can go down the mountain to practice and see the world, while those who do not perform well can naturally only stay on the mountain and practice patiently.
It can be seen that many Qingyun Sect disciples are very interested in Shanxia.
Cangsong is indeed selfless.
But it’s not that he doesn’t understand the ways of the world.
He can confront Master Shuiyue, he can confront Wada Buyi, and he can even confront Daoxuan, the leader of Qingyun, but he will not embarrass some juniors, let alone some disciples.
Unless he needs it, he won't be in trouble.
But not all of the people who came down the mountain this time were his disciples from Longshou Peak. Considering fairness and justice, all the main peaks sent people. Even Dazhu Peak, which had the smallest number of people, also sent Song Daren to show fairness. Fair attitude.
certainly.
Just words.
If he really encounters a good prospect, the bargaining chips and promises that Cangsong can offer on the spot are definitely things that Song Daren cannot offer.
In other words, in fair competition, the disciples would have no chance of winning.
But it’s obviously impossible not to send someone.
Whether it is Shuiyue, Daoxuan, Tian Buyi or Cangsong, they all understand that as long as someone is not sent, whoever's turn it is to preside over the assessment will dare to draw all the good seedlings of this batch into his hands.
Therefore, although it is fair and just on the surface, in fact there are still internal struggles, but this kind of struggle is benign. It can also be regarded as training the eloquence of old disciples and paving the way for successors.
But even if they stand in the same position and take action at the same time to compete for a good seedling, they still have high and low means.
Old disciples who are not good at eloquence will not be able to recruit talents for their main peak, and those who are unlucky will not even be able to recruit new disciples.
Um.
Take Dazhu Peak for example.
Song Daren's eloquence is not outstanding.
Therefore, Dazhu Peak often cannot recruit disciples.
However, although Wenmin's eloquence is not outstanding, and logically speaking, he cannot accept too many disciples, Xiaozhufeng's advantage is too great, and Wenmin's advantage is too great.
Among a group of men, who would have the nerve to lose face and compete with a woman for some good prospects?
Especially since these good prospects are all girls.
In other words, even if someone is shameless, Cangsong, who is in charge of the assessment, is still shameless!
Therefore, as long as girls from all generations passed the examination, they had no other choice and they all directly joined Xiaozhu Peak.
The remaining boys with good talents will naturally be given priority to get competition and promises from various old disciples, and then those boys with average talents can take their turn. Following the wishes of most people, they joined a group of people in a blur. The main peak became a disciple of this main peak.
In other words, what Cangsong did was actually fair.
There isn't much left.
The geniuses that these old disciples can win have all been won; those who have not won are probably not able to win. After all, the things in the hands of each old disciple are limited, and it is impossible for each leader to really rest assured and let these old disciples let go. I opened it and made promises just to recruit talents.
Therefore, instead of dragging them here, it is better to let all these disciples go. Although he, Longshou Peak, has taken a lot of advantages, he can eat people with soft words and short hands. Even if these disciples want to sue him for Cang Song, I am afraid they will not. You have to think about the favor you owe this time.
Using a promise that meant nothing, making a few old disciples owe a small favor for no reason. For Cangsong, these were basic operations.
But there is just one elm bump, which is extremely annoying!
Looking at Tian Buyi, the eldest disciple taught by that fat man, standing there conscientiously and continuing to maintain the assessment, even though Cangsong's Qi-nurturing skills were better, the muscles at the corners of his eyes couldn't help but twitch.
As the saying goes: Dragon begets dragon, phoenix begets phoenix, and the son of mouse can dig holes!
It was obvious that he had let go, and it was obvious that all the disciples agreed, but in the end, his words and actions were completely two extremes!
Well promised!
Work has to be done!
What is the picture of?
He has the same stupid temper as his master Tian Buyi!
By the way, I don’t know what qualities Junior Sister Suru saw in Fatty Tian. She actually couldn’t even look down on a talent like Senior Brother Wan, and instead married Fatty Tian, a fool who couldn’t even compare to him.
Cangsong clenched his fists subconsciously.
The breath stuck in my heart, I couldn't swallow it.
However, Cangsong soon adjusted his pointless anger, withdrew his gaze, and decided to be out of sight and out of mind.
Little did he know, he just missed an important person!
"Little brother, are you tired?"
Looking at the five-year-old child in front of him, Song Daren's eyes couldn't help but sparkle. Although he knew that his words were not attractive, he decided to give it a try.
No way.
Just because the child in front of me has such good bones!
If we use colors to describe it, most of the ones that have passed before are cyan, a few outstanding ones are blue, and those who stand at the top are purple.
And the child in front of him has a golden bone that can blind his eyes!
How good it is specifically, or to what extent it is, Song Daren admitted that he still can't tell based on his current level.
But certainly more than all of them!
Yes!
Everyone!
Including him, all the people he has met who have participated in the assessment over the years, the leaders of each main peak, his master Tian Buyi and even the head of Daoxuan, in terms of the most basic skills, they are completely inferior to this child!
So Song Daren decided to give it a try!
Bring this child to Dazhu Peak, even if Dazhu Peak does not recruit new disciples for two or even three hundred years, it will be enough to repay the money!
So what if the xinxing is not up to par?
You can cultivate it slowly!
Anyway, Song Daren felt that if his master Tian Buyi were here at this moment, even the Cangsong leader who was in charge of the commandments would have to break the rules of climbing the stairs and take this child up the mountain. .
Because in the industry of cultivating immortals, talent is really more important than hard work, but slightly less important than opportunity.
But Song Daren can’t speak!
Fortunately, Song Daren himself knew this.
Therefore, Song Daren had no choice but to adopt the stupidest and most undesirable method: to ask for help and to become familiar with each other first.
Seeing Song Daren stop, Wen Min, who was about to leave not far away, couldn't help but stop. After a brief explanation with the junior sister beside him, he walked towards Song Daren with a smile.
"What is Senior Brother Song doing?"
At first, Wenmin was quite natural, but when Wenmin inadvertently laid his eyes on Lu Yuan in front of Song Daren, he felt bad.
This bone!
Such talent!
Why isn't it a girl? !
Wenmin complained subconsciously in his heart.
Immediately, he saw Lu Yuan, a little child, asking Song Daren mercilessly:
"Can you win over people?"
"In other words, can you draw cakes?"
"Regardless of whether it can be realized or not, you have to draw this pie and tell it to others, and then others will be persuaded by you to join your lineage."
"It's no use asking for help."
"By the way, what's your lineage?"
Wen Min had to admit that this kid was really good and courageous. Not only did he not have stage fright, he even dared to use such sharp words to ask questions in front of these two immortal cultivators!
The weirdest thing is that Song Daren actually answered!
"I am a disciple of Dazhu Peak."
While Wen Min was holding his forehead in silence, Song Daren replied in a coherent manner. Although he felt that his efforts this time would be wasted again, he still answered truthfully:
"I think what you said is wrong, little brother."
"Being a human being should be based on integrity. This is what my master once taught me."
"With your mentality, you will suffer big losses if you really embark on this path. Don't be so arrogant when facing your elders. You must respect your teachers and seniors."
"As for the promise."
Having said this, Song Daren also blushed a little, sighed under Wen Min's speechless gaze, and then explained with great sincerity:
"Our Dazhu Peak is not like other peaks."
"We don't have many resources, and we don't have any promises or resources to give you. We can only guarantee that if you join our Dazhu Peak, all of us and Master and Sister will not hide anything from you."
"As long as you want to learn, we know how, and we'll teach."
"This is the promise we at Dazhu Peak can give you."
"Your talent is very strong, really very strong, and I am just a relatively lucky person who discovered you in advance, and then wanted to draw you into our Dazhu Peak in advance."
"So, even though we at Dazhu Peak have made the highest promise, compared to the leader of Longshou Peak, that is, the serious middle-aged man on the stage now, what we at Dazhu Peak can give you is very little."
"But I want to ask you, little brother, to think carefully and choose our Dazhu Peak. You will really not regret it. Everyone in Dazhu Peak is like your family and will treat you wholeheartedly!"
Song Daren told the story sincerely.
And Wen Min on the side was about to roll his eyes at Song Daren's words!
What is elm knot?
Song Daren is called elm knot!
Co-author, you don’t even understand your own advantages, do you?
Wen Min really wanted to grab Song Daren by the collar of his knotty neck and ask him this question, and then see how Song Daren would answer.
For such a talented person, which leader would not do his best to teach?
Hiding something private?
Ah!
Who is willing to hide something private!
Even if he is taught according to the textbook, this child can be conservatively estimated to grow to the realm of supreme purity. If he is taught well, he may be able to reach the realm of supreme purity, the highest realm in the history of Qingyun Sect!
How much face would a master from the Taiqing Realm have to say?
Therefore, no one would hide their secrets in front of such a talented apprentice!
Even people in the devil's path almost never hide their secrets!
Because the magic path needs talented geniuses to supplement its own scarce talents. At most, it will only train such talents below, and will never let such geniuses waste their talents!
therefore
"Senior Brother Song, your advantage lies in the unequal information!"
"This kid doesn't know how talented he is!"
"You just lied to him about his lack of talent, and then extended an olive branch. With the advantage of discovering it in advance, wouldn't this matter be settled easily?!"
"You don't know how to kill first and tell later?"
"What's more, I just taught you how to draw cakes!"
Wen Min really wanted to grab this guy's ears, tell him this key news, and then help Song Daren analyze what he should say at this moment, so that he could get this little brother into Dazhufeng's sect with the greatest probability.
Unfortunately, Song Daren spoke too quickly.
Even if Wenmin wanted to make amends, there was no chance for him to make amends.
Song Daren also felt that he was hopeless.
But Lu Yuan felt that this honest man could still be saved.
"I'm glad you're sincere."
Under Wen Min's changing expression, under Song Daren's still unresponsive gaze, Lu Yuan said with a smile, then changed the topic and stated with a smile:
"For many people, your promise is not tempting."
"But to me, your promise is interesting."
"I knew very early on that my talent was very strong!"
"But normal people will choose to use deception to trick me into entering a force, because this is in line with the principle of exchanging the highest benefit at the lowest cost."
"But you didn't."
"You don't have to."
"And the place that can cultivate you, plus the promise you just made, to be honest, I am tempted, and I also want to experience the family you talked about."
"But before this, I have to pass the assessment first."
As the crowd surged, Lu Yuan unknowingly dragged Song Daren and Wen Min to the front of the first level assessment. Cangsong, who was sitting at the top, also subconsciously focused on this strange combination. above.
Wen Min?
Song Daren?
Why are these two people back again?
Cangsong asked himself subconsciously.
But it wasn't until his eyes fell on Lu Yuan that he suddenly understood Song Daren's intention in an instant, and Tong Kong couldn't help but shrink slightly.
Gen Gu is great!
It’s so good that you can tell at a glance!
There is no need to explore at all, let alone observation. Even the Qingyun Sect disciples who have just started cultivating can see the extraordinary qualities of this child at a glance!
It feels like a mortal facing an immortal!
Even though the immortal has no cultivation, even if the mortal has already embarked on the road of cultivating immortality, the essential difference does not need to be described in any language at all. It can be seen just by putting the two together!
simply.
"Excellently like Senior Brother Wan from back then!"
Cangsong couldn't help but murmured to himself.
In my impression, the invincible Senior Brother Wan is just like this child. He is unfazed by honor and disgrace. Even if he is not angry, no one dares to be presumptuous in front of him!
One person is like suppressing the world and is the protagonist of a world!
Especially when he fought through the wilderness!
That figure was all too familiar to him!
Cangsong couldn't help but stood up.
Song Daren, who was unprepared, was also taken aback by Lu Yuan's words, and subconsciously reminded him uneasily:
"Little brother, you have to think clearly!"
"This Taoist level is extremely difficult to pass. Among all the assessments of Qingyun Sect in the past, if this Taoist level claims to be second, then no one dares to claim to be first in any assessment!"
"If you fail, the rules can't be changed!"
Song Daren did not suppress his voice.
Cangsong on the stage suddenly looked stern.
"Song Daren! Back off!"
Someone who can have the shadow of Senior Brother Wan, even if he is just a little kid over five years old, especially someone like you, an ant, can persuade him?
That's the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon!
No matter how weak you are, it's not your turn to persuade!
Breaking this child's invincibility is not a sin that you, Song Daren, can repay. You must know that, except for Senior Brother Wan back then, even Daoxuan, the current leader of Qingyun, does not have such an invincible momentum in the world!
That's an indescribable feeling!
Lu Yuan's answer also made Cangsong look nostalgic.
"I will definitely succeed!"
"I just hope you will dare to admit your promise then!"
Lu Yuan said so.
Immediately, he flicked his sleeves and stepped onto the jade steps.
boom!
The skin of the first jade step is completely broken!
A hazy scene also appeared behind Lu Yuan at the same time!
boom!
On the second jade step, the skin is completely broken!
A large amount of void energy filled his eyes from the void, and the entire body within three feet of Lu Yuan was filled with this hazy and unknown gas.
But Lu Yuan didn't stop!
Boom boom boom!
Three more roars sounded!
Three, four, and five levels of jade steps, the skin is completely broken!
But no one cares about this step.
Everyone, including Cangsong, stared blankly at the scene emerging from the mist behind Lu Yuan - it was a faint blue lotus!
Boom boom boom boom!
This time, five roars sounded in succession!
A five-year-old child walked halfway through the short jade steps in four seconds. The whole process was as simple as eating and drinking. Anyone can learn it after watching it!
certainly.
Half of the jade steps were trampled to pieces.
And when another four seconds passed, half of it was gone.
All the jade steps are broken!
And the strange appearance behind Lu Yuan was completely revealed.
It was a mysterious green lotus that could not be described in words. It was swaying slightly with the wind. Every sway made everyone present feel confused, and the immortal cultivators like Cang Song were even more shocked to notice. I felt that my mana was slightly suppressed!
Yes!
suppress!
What an incredible phenomenon!
It was as incredible as if this child only took eight seconds to walk across the stairs and then trample them to pieces!
"What's its name, kid?"
Cangsong asked in a dry voice.
Lu Yuan smiled, turned around and looked at the strange creature behind him, and while sighing at the wonder of this world, he said calmly:
"A lotus in the eternal blue sky!"
