The first session ended successfully, and soon the results of all the disciples in Junzi Peak came out.
Jiang Chongshan's team got three clearance tokens; Yin Luoyao's team also got three, Chu Yulu's team got six, and Yao Wenyuan's team got the most, reaching eight.
After this calculation, the four groups can get twenty tokens, no more, no less.
Cheng Ling sighed secretly, and Zhang Chu felt sad. It seemed that he would not be able to participate in the second round.
At this time, Yin Luoyao spoke up and said: "Everyone performed well in the first session, but in the process of grabbing the clearance token, I felt deeply. Eighth Junior Brother, Ninth Junior Brother, and Tenth Junior Sister, the three of you If your cultivation level is too low, I suggest that you don’t need to participate in the second ring, and you might as well use the clearance tokens you get to exchange for corresponding cultivation resources.”
As soon as these words came out, Wen Xiu, Yu Meng, and Hu Yuan also fell into deep thought. From the moment they entered the forbidden area, they couldn't help at all. It could be said that they completely avoided the first ring. In addition, they received three purple and blue fruits as gifts from Cheng Ling, so they really didn't want to take risks.
After thinking for a while, the three women nodded at the same time. He said to Jiang Chongshan: "Senior Brother, the cultivation level of the three of us is too low. Entering the second ring will become a burden to the second and third senior brothers, so I won't participate!"
Jiang Chongshan nodded. He also felt that it was very hard. The three clearance tokens he obtained before were all due to luck. Whenever there was a fight and he had to take care of his junior brothers and sisters, he couldn't care at all.
Moreover, except for him, Yao Wenyuan, and Cheng Ling, the cultivation levels of the other seven members of the Junzi Immortal Emperor lineage are too different. After pondering for a while, he also said: "Senior Sister Yin's words are very reasonable. I will not force you to make this decision. You can make your own decision."
As soon as these words were said, Lu Yu and others began to be moved. After thinking for a long time, they decided not to participate in the competition for the second ring.
In this way, only Jiang Chongshan, Yao Wenyuan, and Cheng Ling from the Gentleman Immortal Emperor line participated in the second ring. The remaining seven people took the customs clearance tokens and traded them with other monks.
Their choice is understandable. The Wuji Festival is not peaceful. After the first ring participated, Junzifeng was considered good. Twenty disciples returned almost fully. Like some mountain peaks, several disciples were lost in the forbidden area.
Some of these disciples died from immortal beasts, some died from accidents, and some even died from fighting among disciples. Of course, unless there is a deep grudge, fights between disciples will generally not kill anyone.
But the second ring will be different in the future. According to old legend, the second ring is the most dangerous, and every time the disciples take part in the competition, the losses are huge. Regarding this point, some high-level monks in the Wuji Sect also had some concerns and suggested canceling the second link.
It's just that many high-level officials also raised objections, because although the second link is the most dangerous, it also has the highest opportunities. To put it bluntly, the Wuji Grand Meeting not only assesses the disciples, but also gives them an opportunity to significantly increase their cultivation and combat power.
How great the danger is, how great the opportunity will be! This is the eternal truth of the monastic world. It is said that this lawsuit was finally brought before Immortal Emperor Wuji, who only left eight words to understand the dispute.
Dependent origination and cessation are difficult to understand!
In the end, this second ring was retained and was left to the disciples to choose. Whether you want opportunities or peace, it all depends on your own fate!
In the end, the disciples of the Junzi Immortal Emperor series included Jiang Chongshan, Yao Wenyuan, and Cheng Ling.
The Yunmeng Immortal Emperor's line consists of eight people: Yin Luoyao, Chu Yulu, Wu Tianfeng, Ye Qiuhe, Jin Yanrong, Lu Xueqi, Shen Mengting, and Zhou Bingqian. Zhou Xiufu and Zhao Zhanhua abstained.
After Cheng Ling learned about it, he couldn't help but admire Zhou Bingqian. Although this junior sister was not high in cultivation, her character was extremely tough. However, since then, there are only eleven people left in the team, and it is difficult for the original four teams to gather together.
Zhang Hu, Zhang Chu, and Song Yingjie were overjoyed and expressed their willingness to join their team. He also claimed that the cultivation level of the three of them was not high, so as not to become a burden to his senior brothers in the peak.
Cheng Ling rolled his eyes, this was such a common excuse! If you are afraid of dragging down your own senior brothers, aren't you afraid of dragging down Junzifeng? But he couldn't leave the three of them alone. He could only say: "That's all, let me take care of these three guys."
Song Yingjie and Zhang Hu looked at each other and laughed. No one understood Cheng Ling's unfavorable luck better than them. The master was the legendary brother-in-law of heaven! (Zhang Huyu...)
Yin Luoyao knew about the relationship between Zhang Hu, Song Yingjie and Cheng Ling, but she was worried that as a result, the strength of Cheng Ling's team would be much weaker.
He immediately suggested: "Junior brother Cheng, I'm afraid it won't be appropriate for you to lead three of them by yourself. I suggest that the second sister and the fourth sister come with you, and you can add one more to your side. Only in this way can the strength be balanced."
Jiang Chongshan also said: "Yes, the second junior sister and the fourth junior sister are both at the Immortal Lord stage, so we can feel more at ease."
Chu Yulu and Ye Qiuhe were even more happy. After their experiences on the Demon Spirit Continent, they had long been accustomed to Cheng Ling's magic and had no objections to the regrouping.
In this way, Junzifeng's grouping for the second round was announced. Yin Luoyao, Wu Tianfeng, Lu Xueqi, Shen Mengting, and Zhou Bingqian were in a group. Cheng Ling, Chu Yulu, Ye Qiuhe, Zhang Hu, and Song Yingjie were in a group. Only Jiang Chongshan , Yao Wenyuan, Jin Yanrong, and Zhang Chu still have one quota.
Fortunately, there were many direct disciples left alone on other peaks. Jiang Chongshan made some contact and pulled over an early-stage Immortal Lord monk named Qi Yu to form a team of five.
This time, everyone's strength is almost balanced.
Almost two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the inner disciples in the square finally began to collect customs clearance tokens.
Cheng Ling nodded silently. The organization of this Wuji event was very organized, fully reflecting the autonomy of the direct disciples. At the end of the first round, the clearance tokens were not counted immediately, but the disciples were allowed to make their own choices.
After all, no matter how many direct disciples participate in the conference, the number of clearance tokens is fixed, only five thousand. In other words, there are only 5,000 direct disciples who can participate in the second stage, and they must form a team. This is definitely not that simple and requires coordination among the disciples.
These two hours are the time left for the disciples to think. And judging from the number of disciples participating in the second level and the team formation requirements, the sect is also prepared to avoid the loss of disciples to the greatest extent.
Soon, the five thousand clearance tokens were collected, but they did not take them back, but kept them in the hands of the participating disciples.
Just when Cheng Ling and others were confused, an old immortal on the high platform spoke: "First of all, congratulations to the five thousand direct disciples who have entered the second stage. I want to explain here that the clearance token is yours. The identity mark can contain information as long as it is refined with a drop of blood."
"It has three functions, please keep them in mind. The first point is very simple. It can be used as a jade slip to transmit sound. The second point is positioning. Within a hundred miles, members of the same team can sense each other. Come here to prevent everyone from getting separated."
"The most important thing is the third point. As the saying goes, manpower sometimes runs out. Once you encounter an irresistible danger, just crush the token to teleport out of the Infinite Forbidden Land and save your lives. But it takes at least three breaths to activate the token. Everyone must take control on their own, remember! Remember!”
"Okay, now I announce that the second part of the Wuji Festival has officially begun!"
As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen immortals on the high platform took action again. After a moment, the passage in the Wuji Forbidden Land opened for the second time.
Zhang Hu muttered: "It's so troublesome, why don't we just need to close it after the first level."
Chu Yulu smiled and said, "That's not the case. You'll know when you get in."
"Oh? Could it be that the two entrances are opened in different places?"
Their team, except for Chu Yulu, was participating in the second ring of the Wuji Festival for the first time. Although Ye Qiuhe had participated before, he stopped at the first round.
Five thousand direct disciples entered slowly. After everyone entered, they found that the place was completely different from the first time they entered. Cheng Ling stood there, looked around for a while, and asked: "Second Senior Sister, what kind of regulations is this Nine Dragons Order?"
Chu Yulu said: "Don't worry, a map of the forbidden area will appear after you pass it. We just need to wait patiently."
Cheng Ling suddenly realized, no wonder that after entering the forbidden area, the disciples of each group stood still. They didn't know the specific location of the Nine Dragons Order and were waiting for the map to appear.
After about half an hour, suddenly, clouds gathered over a large area in the sky, and soon a large map was outlined, and somewhere on the map, a red dot shone.
Chu Yulu said: "Look, the red dot should be the location of Kowloon. Remember, everyone sees the red dot in a different location. This is the location of Kowloon. This is very important to us. We must Branded into my mind.”
When the four of them heard this, they quickly memorized the location of the red dot.
Cheng Ling looked at the surging crowd and said, "Even if everyone sees a different position, there are too many teams competing for it, and the competition is fierce. We have to speed up."
Chu Yulu said: "Yes! That's true. Junior Brother Cheng, you lead us to the first point first!"
Cheng Ling agreed and flew directly to the right, with the four people behind him quickly following up. After flying for more than half an hour, I saw a large group of mountains ahead, very close to the red dot.
But on the mountain range, many flying fairy beasts slowly rose up, and groups of them surrounded the five people.
Cheng Ling instructed: "Second Senior Sister, Fourth Junior Sister, the three of us occupy three triangles to resist the attack of the immortal beasts. You two boys hide in the encirclement. Remember not to act rashly."
The four of them agreed and immediately formed an assault formation to protect Zhang Hu and Song Yingjie in the circle. In this way, they advanced for another stick of incense, but more and more fairy beasts gathered. They were like bright lights in the dark night. All the fairy beasts rushed over, and many of them could launch long-range attacks.
Cheng Ling made a quick decision and said: "The target is too obvious in the sky. Let's go down. We should not be far from the red dot."
Chu Yulu and Ye Qiuhe nodded in agreement. The three of them changed directions and fought their way downwards into the mountains. There were also many immortal beasts in the mountain range, so Cheng Ling said: "Don't get entangled, thinking that you can move as quickly as possible."
The two women agreed, and the three of them protected Zhang Hu and Song Yingjie and headed towards the red dot.
