Opening Ceremony.
It was decided by the old marshal of the military at that time.
Let those who are strong use their hard power.
Open up a road to the sky for future generations of the Federation.
This avenue leads to the sky.
It contains the Taoist's understanding of the spiritual master and the powerful spiritual power.
Every year, there are students with strong talents who successfully break through to the fourth level due to their insights during the opening ceremony.
For example, this is the case with Gun King Yang Qubing.
For the pioneers themselves, opening up this great avenue to the sky is very costly to them.
You need to peel off part of your spirit, or soul.
Generally speaking, a Taoist must rest for at least half a year after opening a Tao.
During this six months, you cannot use your mental energy or do anything that is harmful to your spirit.
Because creation is very difficult, the number of people on this Avenue to the Sky is limited.
Only a maximum of twenty people can enter.
Every year before the opening ceremony, there is a small hunting event.
The time is most of the day.
It ends at 8:30 in the morning and ends at 6:00 in the evening.
The top 20 students with the final points will get this spot.
The top five students can go to the Spirit Master's headquarters to obtain a treasure on this basis.
After listening, Luo Tang suddenly understood.
At the same time, Luo Tang remembered that he was the reward for being the top scholar in the East China Sea Region, but because of his coma, he never had the chance to go to the Imperial Capital to obtain the treasure.
"When you get good results this time, you can go to the General Assembly and get it back in one go."
Luo Tang couldn't help but look forward to it, if he could successfully get the top five results this time.
What kind of treasures can you get from the Spirit Control Master's Headquarters?
"It's almost time, it's time to rest."
At eleven o'clock sharp, Yu Wenbai's voice came from outside the door on time.
The instructors doing rounds are different every day.
The door opens.
Yu Wenbo helped Luo Tang and others turn off the light bulbs.
"Although it is the last day, as long as you are still here, you must abide by the rules here."
.
Luo Tang and others responded immediately.
"Don't worry, instructor Yu, we'll go to sleep right away!"
"Okay, let's go first."
Yu Wenbai smiled, turned around and left through the door.
Luo Tang and others also followed the rules and did not speak again, and soon everyone fell into a deep sleep.
…
Night time.
Imperial Capital Suzaku Division.
Sikong Lie was sitting in the office, looking at the recently compiled report on the table, thinking about it carefully without changing his expression.
"Dongdong!"
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened, Bai Xiujie entered the office and handed over the folder in his hand.
"Director, the latest report from the Donghai Region."
Sikong Lie quickly looked through the results. This report was co-written by Wei Feiguang, the Panhai Branch of the Spiritual Masters Association, and the Wang family.
It records the list of members of the Demon Killing Association captured in the Donghai Region during this period.
The number is shocking.
Reaching an astonishing number of more than 600 people.
Although most of the strength is in the elite leadership stage.
The security of the East China Sea Region cannot be shaken.
But the sudden increase in the number of people in the Demon Association also revealed a problem from the side.
The Demon Association's methods of deceiving people's hearts have increased a lot.
In other words, they are very capable of grasping the weaknesses of ordinary people!
Close it after reading.
Sikong Lie said coldly.
"Tell Principal Wei and the others that we may have to trouble them in the next period of time."
"In addition to the people from the Demon Association, the Ocean Front also needs attention."
"I heard that there will be big noises on the demon side recently. Let them take protective measures."
Bai Xiujie responded immediately.
"yes."
Then he turned around and left to prepare the draft.
Sikong Lie was once again the only one left in the office.
Sikong Lie sat in his seat and waited for a long time.
"Buzz!"
There was a vibrating sound.
Sikong Lie's consciousness sank into his storage bag.
Among them, green light flickered.
…
The night passed quickly.
August 31st, around 7:50 in the morning.
The clearing had long since returned to its original state overnight.
The seats are long gone.
Luo Tang and others stood at the location of their school, waiting for the arrival of Ding Caiying and others.
Soon it will be eight o'clock sharp.
Ding Caiying and others appeared at the end of the road on time.
Luo Tang turned around and looked.
This time, except for Ding Caiying and other instructors.
Hou Hongye, the person in charge of Qiongshan, was also there.
Next to him stood an old man with white hair and beard.
Luo Tang knew that this was probably Mr. Ye who Hou Hongye and Wei Feiguang had mentioned when they were in the hotel.
When the distance was far away, Luo Tang still felt nothing.
Wait until it gets closer.
Luo Tang felt a strange aura.
Lifeless, without any vitality.
His expression remained unchanged, Luo Tang's eyes looked not far away with a faint blue light.
I saw that Mr. Ye was surrounded by a layer of black mist.
When the air comes into contact with this mist, it is immediately destroyed and dissipated.
This scene reminded Luo Tang of what he had seen in the book before.
All living things will have this kind of aura on their body some time before death.
The smell of death.
"It seems that Mr. Ye does not have many years left."
Luo Tang sighed in his heart.
Once the death energy appears, it is basically irreversible.
As time goes by, the aura of death becomes more and more intense.
Living things are also closer to death.
"Mr. Ye is in his current state. He came to preside over this year's ceremony. He probably wants to do something for the younger generations in the last moments of his life."
To clear the way, one needs to peel off the soul. Luo Tang guessed that Mr. Ye must have known that his time was running out.
I want to contribute my last effort to the Federation before I die.
Luo Tang was thinking, and suddenly found that Mr. Ye in front of him looked at him as if he sensed something.
Then a voice sounded in my mind.
"Little guy, it's very impolite to spy on others at will."
Luo Tang paused when he heard this and looked forward.
When he noticed that Mr. Ye was looking at him with a smile, he knew that he had just observed the deathly aura around Mr. Ye and was discovered by him.
After all, he is a strong man in the King Realm.
The perception ability is definitely more than a star and a half better than other spiritual masters.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ye. I just felt something was wrong with your aura just now, so I was curious to investigate."
Respond in your mind.
"you know me?"
"When I came here... I heard it mentioned by Hou Zhenshou and Principal Wei."
"I understand, then tell me, I feel something is wrong with the old man's aura. What is wrong?"
Ye Yongan became interested and asked with a smile.
Luo Tang hesitated, not knowing whether it would be polite to tell the old man that he was dying in front of him.
There was no response for a while.
But this silence has already given Ye Yongan his answer.
"Spirit Master Association, huh... Wei Feiguang got a big deal this year... Little guy, work hard, I'm optimistic about you, old man."
After the words fell, Ye Yongan's voice disappeared from his mind.
Luo Tang hesitated for a moment, but still cupped his fists to show respect to Ye Yongan.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Ye Yongan's face.
"The little guy is interesting..."
Hou Hongye, as a strong man at the peak of the feudal realm, had been following Ye Yongan half a step just now.
Hearing this, he couldn't help but follow Ye Yongan's gaze.
"Mr. Ye is talking about Luo Tang."
Just now, Hou Hongye noticed that Ye Yongan seemed to be communicating with someone, and a smile kept appearing on his face.
Now I know the answer.
"It's him. It's a pity... Our military headquarters doesn't have an affiliated high school in a small town like Linhai. That guy Xiao Li probably still has some resentment about what happened ten years ago."
"I don't want Luo Tang to come directly and give him up to the Spirit Controlling Masters Association."
"It is said that Luo Tang will join the military in four years. Who knows what changes will happen in four years."
Ye Yongan sighed and shook his head.
Hou Hongye did not respond directly.
He knew that what Ye Yongan said about Xiao Li must be Li Xinhou.
As a veteran figure in the early days of the Federation, Ye Yongan would definitely have no problem talking about Li Xinhou casually.
But his seniority is lower than that of Li Xinhou, so he definitely cannot be said casually.
…
"I know Hou Zhenshou...who is that old man?"
"I don't know. I haven't seen him before. He might be a senior from the military."
"I don't know if you haven't noticed that the old man looks a bit similar to Ye Ziming!"
"..."
Ye Yongan, Hou Hongye and others approached.
Many people had never seen Ye Yongan and asked their classmates out of curiosity.
Ordinary students don’t know.
Bai Taotao and other children from the aristocratic family have already recognized him.
"I didn't expect it to be Senior Ye."
"Senior Ye is over 190 this year, right?"
Wang Jingxuan recalled the past and spoke in a low voice.
Bai Yuxuan nodded.
"To be precise, it's one hundred and ninety-seven. It's only a few years before the deadline. If the health is good, it can even be ten years. If the health is bad, it will be about a year."
Bai Taotao remembered Luo Tang's forward hand and Ye Yong'an's action, thought for a moment and said.
"Senior Ye's name is Ye Yong'an. He is the only senior still alive in the Federation today."
"Being able to talk to him is enough to show how much he values you."
Luo Tang nodded when he heard this. Bai Taotao was next to him and saw that his actions just now were normal.
"What is Mr. Ye's title?"
Every king has his own title.
After chatting with Ye Yongan for so long just now, Luo Tang still didn't know his title.
"Lao Ye, people in that era didn't have titles. Their titles were all added to them by people later after their deadline."
"It is said that Mr. Ye's title has been decided two years ago. It is the same as his old man's name, Yong'an."
King Yongan.
Luo Tang nodded. This title must have been approved by his elder.
represents the wishes of his old man.
Eternal peace on earth.
The instructor team passed by Fanhai, and Ding Caiying and other instructors from Fanhai stayed behind.
Hou Hongye accompanied Ye Yongan to move forward.
Finally, we came to stand on the high platform in front of Fanhai and Yanshan.
Instructors from the following schools gradually returned to the team.
Ye Yongan saw everyone standing in his place, looked around, and spoke loudly.
"Hello, fellow students!"
The sound was powerful, and there was no sign that its end was imminent.
"Hello, Senior Ye."
During the process of Ye Yongan coming to power, instructors from various schools and children from aristocratic families had informed everyone of Ye Yongan's identity.
"It seems that everyone already knows my identity, old man, but the process still needs to be completed."
"Old man, my name is Ye Yong'an, an old guy who has lived for one hundred and ninety-seven years."
"I came here this time just to see the future little guys of our federation."
"Look at you one last time."
"..."
