Qianqiu and Yang first passed through Wuxia Town and exited the South City Gate. From a distance, they saw a large stone floor not far from Nancheng. There were many people standing on the stone floor.

The two looked at each other and walked quickly.

As they got closer, they saw the bathing in this area.

There are a lot of stone monuments around this place. People stand on the slate land, and the slate is soil. Someone built a stone platform directly in front of the stone floor, and some Eastern disciples stood on the platform.

There were also some Eastern Sect disciples standing on guard everywhere, standing on large and small stone tablets, forming a circle.

There were many people standing in the circle, including several familiar faces, including Bie Ling, Yu Wenhua, Du Wenhao...

An Eastern sect disciple looked at Qianqiu and Yang Xian, and then at the number in his hand: "It happens to be the 999th and the 1000th person. Congratulations, please come in."

Qianqiu and Yang first took the number plate, thanked them, and walked in.

This is, a female disciple trot all the way, went to the front stone platform, and said softly to the person who was standing in the middle: "Brother Danhua has a thousand people."

Senior Brother Danhua, as the female disciple called him, was fair and fair, but a little fat. The long gown he wore was bulging out due to his belly. He squinted at the crowd, touched a strand of beard on his chin, and gently He nodded and said, "I understand."

When the female disciple ran off the stage, he said to a pale-faced and thin disciple in white clothes on the side: "Xiao Wu, let's start."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu nodded, walked forward and shouted: "Everyone, be quiet." Although the voice was not loud, the breath was strong enough for the people below to hear clearly.

When everyone saw that the Orientalist had spoken, they were speechless and looked at Xiao Wu who was speaking on the stage.

Seeing that everyone was quiet, Xiao Wu said with a smile: "I'm glad to see that everyone has passed a small test and is standing here. Let me introduce myself, I am Xiao Wu, a disciple of the Oriental Fumutang."

He looked at the crowd in the stands and continued: "It is rumored that our oriental faction officially started to accept apprenticeship tests on the sixth day of June, but since we have a notice on the fifth day of June, we have changed. , directly waiting for tomorrow’s test at the inn. But in fact, the test starts today. The first thing we need to do when joining our Oriental sect is to learn to adapt to changes and observe carefully. "

Qianqiu nodded after listening to Xiao Wu's words. Thinking about it carefully, the Oriental Sect put out this notice on the fifth day of June to screen out some people. Although it was a little unreasonable, who would let this person be a famous sect?

Xiao Wu continued: "We posted the notice, and what it said is true. The gathering place is also implicitly hinted on the notice. Congratulations to everyone for gathering here again. I hope you have a good testing experience. Everyone who is new to this. Be brothers. Next, our senior brother Danhua from Jiangmu Hall will announce the first round of test questions."

At this time, Senior Brother Danhua on the side walked to the middle and faced everyone and said: "Hello everyone, I am Danhua, a disciple of Fumutang of the Oriental Sect. I will supervise the first round of the test this time. The test content is very simple. Before sunset on the sixth day of June, if you find the gate of my sect in the Eastern Mountains, you will pass. There are some dangers in the mountains, so please be careful. A small wooden sign similar to this will be given to everyone later."

He picked up a brown wooden sign with his name engraved on it, waved it towards everyone, and continued: "If you are in danger, you can destroy this sign. Having said that, if this sign is destroyed, it will be deemed that the owner has given up the test qualification." , when the time comes, someone will naturally find you and take you away from the Eastern Mountains."

Dan Hua was speechless after speaking, and Xiaowu Shi immediately organized everyone to get a wooden sign of his own.

Qianqiu asked Yang Xian: "Is the content of the first round of test so simple?"

Yang Xian looked at Qianqiu and said with a smile: "Brother Qian, this is not easy. Look at the Eastern Mountains. Finding the gate of a sect is like finding a needle in a haystack."

"You've already found a needle in a haystack, and you're still smiling so happily?" Qianqiu asked doubtfully.

Yang Xian said confidently: "Brother Qian, don't worry, for them it's like finding a needle in a haystack, but for you and me, it's definitely not the case."

"Do you have any magic weapon?" Qian Qiu put on Yang Xian's shoulder.

"Keep confidential first, let's find a few people first." Yang Xian said mysteriously.

"Why are you looking for someone? Why don't we just hit the road?" Qianqiu asked doubtfully.

Yang Xian took Qianqiu and searched around, and finally found Bieling among the crowd.

"Farewell, girl, let's go together." Yang Xian walked in front of Bieling with a smile, "We can take care of each other when there is danger."

Bieling was surrounded by a group of attentive men, and everyone wanted to team up with her. She hated this so much that she refused.

At this time, when she saw Yang Xian came to find a team, she didn't want to immediately agree with Yang Xian's suggestion.

Qian Qiu looked at the zero, smiled, and then said to Yang Xian, "You are looking for her!"

"The three of us have fought monsters together, and we have perfect tacit understanding. Why not form a team?" Yang Xian said with a smile.

Qianqiu nodded and said to himself: "More people do provide more protection, and there is someone to take care of you when you are in danger."

At this moment, someone started making a noise nearby.

"Go away, go away, fat guy, find someone else to form a team with." A very impatient curse came from his ears.

Qianqiu turned around and saw four people standing in front of him. One of them he knew was Yu Wenhua.

There were two people standing next to Yu Wenhua, one tall and thin, the other fat and short.

The tall and thin boy is named Qibi. He is wearing a light green gown and carries a stick on his back. The short and fat boy is named Liuli. He is Qibei's cousin. He is wearing a blue top and a wide trousers. He was wearing dark blue trousers and had an ax fastened to his waist.

Both of them came from Southwest Jingtian Prefecture, and not long ago they recognized Yu Wenhua as their eldest brother.

Standing opposite the three people was a little fat man named Zhao Erzhu. He had dark skin and looked to be only about seven feet tall. He was wearing a short black hat with white stripes, a thin short shirt made of coarse cloth, and two hammers strapped to the back of his waist.

The one who just cursed was Qi Bei. He paused for a while and then cursed at Er Zhu: "You are just a junior magician. You don't even look at how much you weigh, and you dare to ask to form a team with my elder brother. Team, are you worthy?"

Qianqiu and Yang Xian said: "This little fat guy is an honest person at first glance. You see when others scold him like this, he doesn't even talk back."

"Yu Wenhua, don't bully people. What's wrong with the junior magicians? No one is born as a high-level magic saint. If you don't team up with this little fat guy, we will!" After Qianqiu said this, he walked over and hugged him. Erzhu's shoulders.

Yu Wenhua saw the person clearly and was about to say something when he suddenly felt that Qianqiu's cultivation level was not even a little stronger than before in Huanghu City. Although he was surprised, he calmed down and said to Qibi and Liuli next to him. Voice: "Let's go."

Yu Wenhua and the other two set off first.

At this time, Zhao Erzhu looked up at Qianqiu with a smile and said, "Brother, are you really willing to team up with me? My cultivation is not enough." He lowered his head as he spoke.

"Don't talk so much. Everyone's cultivation is not achieved overnight. If we form a team, everyone can take care of us when we go into the mountain. By the way, what's your name?" Qianqiu asked.

"Brother, my name is Zhao Erzhu. The wood-attribute magic I practice comes from Sanli Village in Guixie Prefecture. What about you?" After hearing Qianqiu's words, Zhao Erzhu knew that the people in front of him were willing to accept him. He was better than eating honey. sweet.

Qianqiu and the three of them each introduced themselves.

Er Zhu was originally happy, but now he was a little uneasy: "Brother Qian, Brother Yang, sister, I'm afraid I'll hurt you, otherwise you..."

Yang Xian smiled and said: "Er Zhu, what do you call it? It's fate that we met. We don't know what the test will be later. We just form a team to take care of each other. We will not underestimate you, and you also Don't underestimate yourself, just work hard when we join the Oriental School together."

"Hehe, Brother Yang's words are so nice. Scholars are different after all." Erzhu said with a silly smile.

"Okay, let's talk on the way if we have anything to say. It's getting late." At this time, Bieling was no longer so cold, and had more expressions and smiles.

A team of four was formally formed and entered the Eastern Mountains.

The Dongfang Mountains stretch for thousands of miles. If you were to look for the gate of the Dongfang Sect without any purpose, you might not be able to find it in three days and three nights.

After entering the mountain, Qianqiu asked Yang Xian as he walked: "Old Yang, I just saw that you have a plan in mind. Now there are only four of us. Please tell me."

Yang Xian split a small tree blocking the road and said: "I once read some books about the Orientalists when I was a child. The book said: The location of Dongfang Mountain is just between Chaotian Prefecture and Shenshan Prefecture. Chaotian Prefecture There are more monsters, but there are more ordinary people in Shenshan State."

"Then what does this have to do with the Eastern Gate?" Qianqiu asked again.

"Brother Qian, don't worry. The purpose of the founding of the Eastern Sect is to resist the invasion of monsters with the northwest direction, and to accept the disciples from all over the world with the southeast direction. The Eastern Sect is famous for making its disciples practice hard and make progress. In this way, I think we can basically rule out the large mountains and forests in the southeast.”

"Brother Yang, why is this?" The diligent Erzhu led the way and turned around to ask after hearing what Yang Xian said.

"Because if the original intention of the Oriental Sect is to control monsters, the location of the sect will definitely be in the northwest, so as to facilitate timely understanding of the situation in Chaotian Prefecture in the northwest. And these mountain roads in the southeast are a test for those who come to become apprentices. It's also hard work." Yang Xian analyzed it carefully.

After listening to Yang Xian's analysis, Bie Ling sighed: "It turns out there are so many ways."

"Brother Yang, I think following you is the right thing to do!" Erzhu smiled from ear to ear.

Qianqiu pulled out a few thorns and said: "Er Zhu, Lao Yang is a well-known talent in the Holy City. This thing will not trouble him."

"Hmm, that's great." Erzhu was also very excited, and the opening movements in his hands became faster, "I really want to know how the other hundreds of people are going to find the gate of this sect."

Qianqiu took over the words: "Many people have spiritual beasts. They will definitely fly up to the sky to see them. This shouldn't be difficult."

Yang Xian thought for a while: "Brother Qian, I don't know if you have noticed it, but the entire mountain range has been covered with a blinding barrier. If you don't search carefully in the mountain, I think you won't be able to find it."

Qianqiu looked up, carrying the black cloth, and stepped onto a tree with a few feet.

Looking around, it was foggy, and there were indeed not many spiritual beasts flying in the sky.

He got down from the tree and nodded: "Lao Yang, you are right. Indeed, few people choose to go to the sky to look for it. The fog is too heavy."

Soon, Qianqiu said with a solemn expression: "But what I'm worried about now is another thing."

The three of them looked at Qianqiu and asked, "What's going on?"
