Xiang family.

Tianmai, Xiangtian Study Room.

"Forget it this time. If you encounter something like this in the future, come back to me first! Grandpa will seek justice for you!" Xiang Tian seemed to be giving a stern lesson.

"Uh-huh!"

"Uh-huh!"

Fang Li and Yu Wei's heads suddenly nodded like chickens pecking at rice.

Xiang Tian glanced at the two of them helplessly and said, "Yu Wei, please go out first. I have something to talk to Fang Li alone."

"Oh." Yuwei hummed, turned around and went out, not forgetting to close the door when she left.

"The Hundred Family Banquet will be held in a few days. As the leader of the Xiang Family this time, you should at least know about this grand event." Xiang Tian said straight to the point.

"Although it is called the Hundred Family Banquet, there may actually be more than a hundred people participating. Our four major families, the upper three sects and the lower five sects of Shiting, some famous forces around Ning'an City, and the seven major sects of the empire , will all come to participate.”

"Although the Baijia Banquet is a banquet, it is actually a place for competition between various forces. It is similar to the Kyushu Imperial Examination, which is mainly based on the competition of young talents from each period of time."

"And these competitions, although nominally just for discussion, are also very important to the reputation of our forces. Therefore, your task is to ensure that our Xiang family does not lose in the competition!"

"Don't worry, grandpa, I will definitely give you a complete victory for the Xiang family!" Fang Li nodded heavily.

Seeing this, Xiang Tian nodded slightly and was about to let him leave when he thought of something again and said: "As far as I know, the Lin family may be targeted this time. That little girl is kind to you. You can figure out what to do when the time comes." Bar!"

Lin? Fang Li was stunned, and that beautiful silhouette appeared in his mind again. He said "I know." After saying goodbye to Xiang Tian, ​​he left the central hall, said hello to Yuwei, and went back to his room.

"This Hundred Family Banquet is not simple..." Lying on the bed, he couldn't fall asleep for a long time, thinking about what Xiang Tian said, he couldn't help but murmured.

After a while, he jumped out of bed and went directly to the back mountain to practice. Since he couldn't sleep, he might as well improve his strength quickly. The Hundred Family Banquet in the next few days may not be peaceful.

"The "Ancient Emperor's Code" is divided into seven levels. Now it can only be regarded as the first level of entry, but there is still a long way to go!"

In the spiritual consciousness space, Fang Li read the message left by the senior, his eyes flashing with wonder. He didn't expect that this technique could actually have growth potential, but he didn't know what level of technique it would be at the seventh level?

Let’s try practicing this elemental skill tonight! He cast his eyes on a spiritual light near the soul wheel. He stretched out his hand to guide it, and the spiritual light turned into a scroll and flew into his hand. He opened it and read it.

Bahuang Fist, a heavenly lower level elemental skill! The raised fist can attract the energy of heaven and earth, and the fallen fist can mobilize the power of the Eight Desolations. There are three styles. A master's punch can break thousands of miles of rivers and mountains!

"Low-level Tianpin?!" When Fang Li saw these four words, he almost immediately gasped. What is the identity of that senior? Such a valuable elemental skill was thrown away casually!

He stared at the scroll in his hand with fiery eyes. Tonight, let me try how powerful this big treasure is!

······

A few days later.

Tianmai Zhongtang, early morning.

The Tianmai talents participating in the Baijia Banquet have already gathered here. Only the person leading the team has not appeared yet.

"Yu Wei, didn't you call him?" Elder Tian Bing had a look of confusion on his face, and then asked the girl in blue.

"He went, but he seems to have gone to the back mountain to practice again." Yuwei said with some dissatisfaction.

When Elder Tianshui heard this, a look of helplessness appeared on his face. Then just wait. If it doesn't work, they will set off first and wait for him to come back from the back mountain before going.

"This Fang Li, do you really think that since you are the team leader, you can stand up?" From behind, a young man said with great displeasure. Originally, the position of team leader was his, but who knew that Fang Li suddenly appeared and snatched it from him? Got it!

"I guess I'm afraid of Brother Tianhua and don't dare to come!" As soon as the young man finished speaking, someone echoed.

"When he comes, I will teach him a lesson!" Xiang Tianhua seemed to regard himself as an elder, and his tone was very arrogant.

Everyone waited for another quarter of an hour before a rush of footsteps sounded outside the nave. Fang Li rushed in, saw everyone's faces, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, everyone, I've gone too far in practice."

Many eyes with different meanings fell on Fang Li, and they were also very curious about this direct descendant who had gone to Daling Mansion to study for more than two years.

Xiang Tianhua slowly walked out of the crowd and said with a smile: "Brother Fang Li is really hard-working, how about competing with me? Let me see what qualifications you have to be the team leader!"

Some people's eyes suddenly became gloating, wanting to see how Fang Li would respond. The latter's strength at the Mortal Realm really disappointed them, but Xiang Tianhua had the strength at the Beginner Xuan Realm!

"You!" Yuwei frowned slightly and opened her mouth to speak, but was stopped by Elder Tian Bing.

Elder Tian Bing shook his head and said, "Xiang Tianhua will suffer a loss." He was also present in the fight between Fang Li and Lin Yinyun. Fang Li could even defeat the Huaxu Sect, let alone a newcomer to the Xuan Realm?

"Since Brother Tianhua wants to know why I have this qualification, let's give it a try!" Fang Li frowned, then smiled, he was just a newcomer to the Mysterious Realm, and he really didn't take it seriously.

"Brother Fang Li's tone is quite crazy!" Xiang Tianhua sneered, the disdain in his eyes became even greater, and he simply punched away. He wanted to use the simplest way to defeat this young man's self-confidence!

A sneer appeared at the corner of Fang Li's mouth. The black and yellow energy surged, and he also punched out. The raging power was hidden in the black and yellow energy, but it was not released.

The two fists collided, and the surging force exploded. Xiang Tianhua was sent flying five to six meters by this punch, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"If you catch my punch again, I will give up the position of leader!" Fang Li said, the black and yellow energy lingering on the skin, covering the entire palm. Then he punched Xiang Tianhua, and the black and yellow energy turned into a fist shape and went straight towards Xiang Tianhua's lower abdomen.

However, Xiang Tianhua is not an incompetent person. Small vortices formed in his palms, and he suddenly pushed forward and collided with the fist enveloped by the black and yellow energy!

Water Xuan Palm!

Bahuang Fist!

boom--!

After the palms and fists collided, some air waves were set off, and the vortex continued to disappear. The force directly hit Xiang Tianhua's arm. He immediately flew back, and there was a "clicking" sound of broken bones in his right arm. .

Everyone around, except Elder Tian Bing, was stunned. Even though there was a huge gap in cultivation between the two sides, they were all punched like this. What if they were of the same level? Be perverted!

"Elder Tian Bing, if you didn't stop just now, Brother Tianhua might not be able to go." Fang Li turned to look at Elder Tian Bing and said with an apologetic smile.

"You guy." Elder Tian Bing shook his head and felt helpless. How could he not see that Fang Li did it on purpose? He sent two people to help Xiang Tianhua down, turned around and said to everyone: "Let's go!"

A group of dozens of people boarded eight carriages parked in front of the Xiang Mansion. The driver raised his whip, the horses neighed, and the convoy drove toward the inner city in a mighty manner, with dust flying in the air.

······

In the inner city, there are hundreds of buildings.

In the inner city where land is at a premium, ordinary courtyards only cover a few miles. But there is one building that breaks the rules, and that is Baijialou.

It is said to be a building, but actually it is more appropriate to describe it as a palace. This palace complex covers an area of ​​nearly a hundred square kilometers and is quite huge. It is divided up by many forces. Only a few palaces in the center are unclaimed land, and that is the Baijialou.

Baijialou is responsible for hosting the annual Baijia Banquet. The spacious venue provides ample space for young talents to challenge each other.

In the central palace of Baijialou at this time. The three upper sects have all arrived, and three of the lower five sects have arrived. Some well-known forces around Ning'an City have also participated in the Hundred Family Banquet. Only the four major aristocratic families, the real host of the Hundred Family Banquet, have not arrived yet.

Several old men from the Shangsan Sect were talking in low voices, their eyes constantly glancing towards the empty seats of the four major families. The smell of gunpowder in the air was extremely strong.

"It seems that this time the three Sects want to join forces to suppress the Lin family." Somewhere on the second floor, a young man in casual clothes said softly. This young man was about eighteen years old, with eyes like stars, handsome face, gentle and scholarly.

"Your Highness, do we want to help?" a follower behind him asked.

"It depends on the situation. As long as they are not too aggressive, Yun'er should be able to handle it." The young man whispered.

"The Xiang family is here." The young man's eyes moved, and he stared at the dozen or so people walking into the venue, and asked in surprise: "He is actually leading the team, from the Mortal Abyss Realm?"

"Your Highness, you were in seclusion a few days ago, and you didn't know. He was the one who defeated Miss Yinyun in the Ivy Court Examination!" A follower immediately explained.

The young man was obviously interested and stared at Fang Li closely. After he took his seat, he suddenly took a few steps back and said, "Although his Yuan Li is still in the Mortal Abyss Realm, his spiritual consciousness has entered the Soul Realm. It's not simple." ·····No more than the Xiang family, haha...”

On the first floor, as soon as Fang Li sat down, he felt someone staring at him. After scanning around, he didn't find anyone, and he felt a little confused.

"Brother! What are you looking at? You don't have a crush on any sister, do you?" Yuwei saw his behavior and said with a smile.

"Eat your food." Fang Li flicked her smooth forehead and said with a smile.

His eyes were suddenly attracted by the three members of the Shangsan Sect. The three old men suddenly stood up and stared at the entrance.

"The Lin family has arrived, but the situation doesn't seem to be good." Elder Tian Bing said while looking outside the palace door.

At the door of the palace, a beautiful figure stood quietly, followed by an old man and about ten young people.

The girl in green didn't pay attention to the gazes in the palace. Her pair of blue eyes were extremely cold, and she led everyone in the Lin family towards the seats of the four major families.

Three old men from the Shangsan Sect suddenly stepped out and stood in front of the Lin family. One of them said, "Friends of the Lin family, why don't you sit here?" He pointed to a seat near the Shangsan Sect.

"Get out of the way." Lin Yinyun's cold voice sounded almost immediately.

"Old Mu, I told you that you don't need to persuade me, but you still don't listen." Another old man mocked, turned to Lin Yinyun, and said: "Little girl, you Lin family are no longer worthy of the name of the four great families. ! You'd better change seats!"

"Whether you are worthy or not is not something you three can decide!" The old man behind Lin Yinyun took a step forward and snorted coldly.

"Old man Dongze, you should know that the positions of the four major families cannot be defended by two Nine Heavens realms!" The old man who had not spoken until now spoke up.

"Our three upper sects have formed an alliance, and our strength exceeds that of your Lin family, so we should take our place! To put it bluntly, even if you tell your Lin family to get out today! There is nothing wrong with it!"
