The crowds come and go like the tide.
Shang Jie also has a good reputation in the sect. After he spoke loudly for a while, people everywhere responded with promises. There were many people who came here to watch the excitement. After listening to Shang Jie's words, a lot of good things happened. The guys started shouting loudly one after another, then turned around and flew back towards the sect. For a moment, almost only the children of the aristocratic families who had gathered together on the opposite side were left on the scene.
And almost as soon as these people flew back to the sect, they shouted and publicized all the way, attracting the attention of many people. Soon, a very explosive news spread quickly in the crowded and lively place: the famous man in the sect Qian Chao, who was making a sound, was stopped by a group of unconvinced children of the family as soon as he left the sect today. He must compete with him. Now the two sides are confronting each other outside the sect. A lively competition is about to begin. Hurry up if you want to watch the fun, but you won’t be able to see it if you go late...
As the news spread, wherever people in the sect gathered, whether it was by the Tianshui Lake, inside or outside the Jingshiyuan, or in Jiuxuan's Chengqi Hall, wherever there were crowds of people, people kept flying out in a hurry. Heading towards the outside of the sect, as the dark and continuous crowds of people came out, many people who had not heard the news were curious to see this scene and inquired about it, and then joined in, each with their own thoughts to take a look. After all, a wave of people came out of the sect for a while.
In less than half a cup of tea, as the noisy crowd gradually became louder, a large number of people came from the direction of the sect. Each one was either surprised or happy and gathered around. Behind Qian Chao and others He stopped behind him and faced those children from aristocratic families. At the beginning, the number of people was not as large as that of the other party, but gradually as the crowd behind them arrived, the sky and the earth were filled with huge crowds. The total number was always more than a thousand people. Under the gaze of these people, those who gathered together The disciples of the aristocratic families also began to feel uncomfortable. At this time, in terms of number, the Five Spirit disciples opposite them had far exceeded them.
One more thing to say here is that in Wuling Sect, it is not easy to become a disciple. For many disciples in the sect with little background and life experience, the "Cheng Guan En Examination" once every ten years is almost their only chance to get into the eyes of those seniors, but now Such an opportunity has to be snatched away by these pampered children of the aristocratic family who jumped out halfway. It is almost impossible to say that they have no opinions on the children of the aristocratic family. Ever since the children of the aristocratic family took the time to come to Wuling Sect, the original disciples of the sect There was a layer of hostility towards it.
It's good now that these people actually took the initiative to challenge Junior Brother Qian, who has recently become famous. When someone flew back from outside the sect and picked up a crowded place and loudly told the incident and asked everyone to hurry up and watch the fun, but As you can imagine, the effect of this news is not like a stone thrown into the water causing thousands of ripples, but like a hill dropped into Tianshui Lake causing huge waves!
After a cup of tea, the number of disciples pouring out from the sect to watch the excitement was almost ten times that of the disciples from the aristocratic families across the way, and there was a steady stream of people flying over from behind.
Yan Xuan was so shocked by this scene that his face turned pale. Tang Ping didn't care. She patted Qian Chao on the arm and said:
"Let's make a big fuss, Mr. Qian. This opportunity is rare. Don't forget, it's not just the children of the aristocratic families who want to challenge you in the grace examination. Many people in the sect will also have this idea. You are afraid of trouble. If you don’t want to go on stage on the day of the grace test, then you have to show your true skills today. It’s not easy to make so many people give up in spite of the difficulties, ha!”
Li Jian was used to seeing big scenes with thousands of troops and horses, so he didn't care at all. Lu Pingchuan beside him was scratching his head with joy, wishing he could take Brother Qian's place to teach the boys on the opposite side.
Such a huge momentum will naturally attract people's special attention in the sect. From behind the crowd, someone's figure flew over like lightning and landed in front of Qian Chao and others.
"Junior Brother Qian, what's going on?"
The person who came asked questions after he landed. It was none other than Fan Yi, the leader of the Qi Refining disciples in the sect.
As the leader of the qi-refining disciples in the sect, Fan Yi was naturally concerned about such matters. A large number of qi-refining disciples came out of the sect to gather. If there was a conflict, it would be a big mess. He came here in a hurry to find out what happened.
When Tang Ping saw him, she immediately stopped him from talking. She came to Fan Yi and said:
"Ah, Senior Brother Fan, that's great. We are in need of someone with a reputation here who can preside over the scene. I didn't expect that Senior Brother Fan would come, so he who can do it will do more..."
"Junior Sister Tang, stop making trouble, there are so many people gathered here, what are you doing?"
"Senior Brother Fan, you can't be partial. This is not what we are going to do. The five of us were originally going out, but as soon as we came out...ah, there were so many people blocking us on the other side, and we wanted to compete with Mr. Qian on everything. Fan, look at how many people are on the other side, but we were the only five here at that time. Later, they insisted on letting go. We felt that it was not impossible to compete, but there must be someone to witness it, so we spoke out. Go and invite the many senior brothers and sisters in the sect to come and watch the fun and bear witness. What I say is absolutely true. If you don’t believe it, just go and ask those people.”
Fan Yi looked at Tang Ping suspiciously. In his impression, Qian Chao was pretty decent, but this Tang Ping, well, in a few years, he might be even more powerful than Luo Ying, but Fan Yi was He came out with the flow of people, and he understood a little more from the chatter of people along the way. Now when he listened to Tang Ping's words, he felt that maybe this girl was right. Even if he wanted to ask, both parties had to ask. asked, so he said:
"Then wait until I go and ask."
"Which one of you is the leader here?" Fan Yan said as he came to the gathered disciples of the aristocratic families.
In fact, Fan Yi had already seen Bai Lin's figure in the crowd, but he still had some doubts in his heart. Although Bai Lin was also a playboy, he would never mess around like this on weekdays, but seeing this Among the many children of the aristocratic family, there was only one Bai Lin, and of course there was Yun Xi. Fan Yi understood that today's events must only be related to him.
When Fan Yan asked who was in the lead, Bai Lin, who always liked the limelight, was about to answer when she was grabbed by Yun Xi. She was worried that Bai Lin had no idea and was frightened by Fan Yan with just a few words.
However, there are indeed some children from the aristocratic family who are eloquent. After Fan Yi finished asking, there was a moment of silence before someone answered:
"I...we are all leaders!"
A guy in front of these people looked very uncomfortable under Fan Yan's gaze. He guessed that today's things might be a bit out of line. However, this guy was also smart. He thought of the principle that the law does not punish the public, and then he shouted suddenly. After saying such a sentence, the effect was quite good. Immediately, many people behind him echoed and shouted:
"Yes, we are all leaders..."
"That's right..."
Fan Yan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect such a situation, and then he asked again:
"So you gathered here first to stop Junior Brother Qian Chaoqian, are you going to compete with him?"
"right……"
"Exactly..."
After the commotion, someone from the aristocratic family said loudly and plausibly:
"This senior brother, we all just joined the sect not long ago. Qian Chao's reputation is very popular. Firstly we were envious, and secondly we were curious, so we visited him and wanted to have a discussion with him, but he never dared to challenge him. , who pushed us back and forth, and even used the rules within the sect to prevaricate us, saying that we can't take action within the sect, and if we break the rules within the sect, we will be punished with solitary confinement, but... we are outside the sect now, so we do this , It doesn’t count as breaking the sect’s rules. If he still dares not challenge us, it won’t be difficult for us to do anything for him. We just think he has recognized a villain with a false reputation!”
When this person said this, the children of those aristocratic families immediately started making noise again, either echoing or loudly talking about how timid and avoiding the money tide...
Fan Yi frowned after hearing this, and secretly thought that these guys are good at talking, but others don't know whether Qian Chao is capable or not. He, Fan Yi, has seen Qian Chao's methods twice with his own eyes and has no doubts at all. Moreover, he also thinks that these children of aristocratic families Today's actions are a bit ridiculous. Nowadays, these guys are in a fierce mood and must take action. It seems... Thinking of this, Fan Yan glanced at Bai Lin in the crowd again... Could it be that this boy Bai Lin is actually making money for some reason? This is why so many people came to build momentum for him...
Whatever!
Fan Yan didn't have a good impression of these children from aristocratic families at first. He felt that these people were raised too arrogantly in their respective families, and they were very arrogant and arrogant. If he wanted to convince these new guys, he would be better in the sect in the future. If they weren't so arrogant, they would have to let Qian Chao take action today to subdue them. If not, I'm afraid these arrogant children of aristocratic families might cause trouble in the sect in the future.
"good!"
Fan Yan said ok loudly, then floated up to the middle of the two sides and said loudly:
"Since you are determined to challenge Junior Brother Qian, and Junior Brother Qian has accepted the challenge, naturally I can't say anything. In fact, the sect very much encourages the competition between disciples. The only requirement is to finish the challenge. If you challenge, you will be divided. It's about victory or defeat, not life or death. Since I have met you, let me make a decision here. Those of you who have just entered the sect may not recognize me, and that's okay. Just ask around later, but you must speak to me. Listen! The competition has begun, and everyone will decide the outcome. However, if I feel that there is danger and I want to stop the competition, I must stop it. Do you understand?"
Most of these disciples from aristocratic families who had just entered the sect did not recognize Fan Yan, but they were intimidated by his momentum and cultivation and did not dare to say anything.
Fan Yi turned around and looked at Qian Chao. Seeing Qian Chao nodding, he said:
"Well, in that case, you can send someone out to challenge."
Just when the children of the aristocratic families were about to come out first, an urgent roar suddenly came over:
"Wait! Wait a minute..."
This loud roar naturally attracted everyone's attention, and then they saw a figure flying over in a hurry.
It turned out to be Ma Hu flying over in a hurry.
"Hey, Senior Brother Fan, please wait a minute. Such a lively event cannot be wasted. How about you let me say a few words first?"
Fan Yi didn't know what Ma Hu was going to do, but thinking that he had a good relationship with Qian Chao and was probably not here to cause trouble, he nodded.
Ma Hu said loudly and angrily:
"Brothers and sisters, how come no one is betting on such a good opportunity? Are you all stupid? Come on, come on, I am the banker, let's have a good bet today, um, both sides bet, winner takes all, Just bet... Can Junior Brother Qian win every game without losing today, okay? Hehe, anyway, I feel that these guys who are blocking the road have no idea how much I weigh, hehe, I feel How great I am, but in fact I am not even worthy of being bundled together to carry Junior Brother Qian's shoes! Look, when I say this, some people stare, come on, come on, come on, the noble sons of the aristocratic families over there, if they are not convinced, they take out their spiritual stones and talk to me Take a gamble. Since you are blocking the way to challenge, there will always be some luck in winning or losing. Don't say that you don't dare to gamble with this little spiritual stone. In that case, you should get out of the way and get out of the way. Hmph, do you dare to gamble? I'll look at you. Everyone has an unlucky face and needs to be beaten, so they will definitely not be able to win. Does anyone have the courage to place a bet? Hey, and you, no one will follow me, Ma Hu, to place bets with such a good opportunity. Did you earn spiritual stones together?"
Ma Hu also came prepared. The person beside him was actually Bu Yannong. I don’t know when the two of them met. Bu Yannong was holding a pen and paper with an excited face, as if he was going to take notes. Bu Yannong Behind Yan Yan was Lei Xian who was with him, looking towards Qian Chao curiously and worriedly.
The scene immediately became lively. In an instant, no one paid any attention to Qian Chao and Fan Yi. Countless people rushed towards Ma Hu with noisy voices, holding bags containing spiritual stones in their hands. There was a lot of noise, including disciples from both sects and aristocratic families.
Yanxuan frowned and complained:
"How can this Ma Hu use Brother Qian to earn spiritual stones!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Tang Ping turned around with excitement and said:
"Brother Lu, come on, let's buy some bets too!"
"Let's go, let's go!" Lu Pingchuan also liked this idea and was overjoyed when he heard this.
Then Ma Hu’s shout came from the crowded crowd over there:
"Hey, I have the nerve to place a bet on a few spiritual stones. It's too shabby. Add more and more! Let's take all the winners. If we want to divide the spiritual stones in the end, we have to bet at least fifty spiritual stones. Look at this. How generous these noble gentlemen from aristocratic families are, they only spend hundreds of spiritual stones..."
However, Tang Ping and Lu Pingchuan could hardly squeeze in from the crowd. Tang Ping jumped to her feet anxiously and kept calling Bu Yannong to keep accounts for her. In the end, Lei Xian squeezed out of the crowd and took her and Lu Pingchuan's spiritual stone. Received.
"Why... it's like this!" Yanxuan's eyes were opened today.
Li Jian smiled and shook his head, while Qian Chao next to him kept staring blankly.
"Brother Qian, it's up to you to earn spiritual stones today."
Someone was talking next to him. Qian Chao turned around and found that it was Shen Weizai who had a smile on his face. He actually came to join in the fun. When he was about to say something, he saw a few more people walking over quickly with smiles on their faces. , it turned out to be Luo Ying, Luo Bin, Lu Shuang, Yan Shuang, Wenyuan and others.
"Hey, Mr. Qian, you can't lose, I've placed a big bet on you!" Luo Ying said after walking over.
Qian Chao was stunned. It seemed that these women had placed bets with Ma Hu. They all looked at Qian Chao like gamblers. Qian Chao smiled helplessly and said:
"Sisters, aren't you afraid that Ma Hu will run away with the spirit stone in the end? He can do such a thing."
"He dares! He dares to touch my spirit stone, unless he doesn't want to hang around in the sect any longer. Also, you kid can't deliberately let loose. Today, the undefeated one will win. Do you hear me? Otherwise, You have to give me my spirit stone, including the principal and interest!"
Then Qian Chao saw many familiar figures in the chaotic crowd. They were all those who had fought side by side against foreign enemies before. Among them were Cui Yin, Gu Yuan, the Fang sisters, etc. There was no need to ask about these people. , naturally the money buying trend wins.
As for Senior Brother Fan Yan, he also had some narrow-minded thoughts at this time, but he respected his identity and was embarrassed to be crowded with so many people. He could only wait patiently until everyone around Ma Hu had dispersed. Then he calmly handed a small bag to Ma Hu, then coughed again, walked out and said loudly:
"Okay, now that everything that needs to be done has been done, then... let's get started, Junior Brother Qian, please!"
Finally, everyone present fell silent. Qian Chao walked out slowly, then bowed lightly to a group of disciples from aristocratic families who were also in darkness opposite, and said:
"Qian Chao, Jiu Xuan disciple, got a little fame by chance. Originally he only helped the senior brothers and sisters in the sect a little, so I feel a little ashamed to get the name, so I didn't let him go. In my heart. Although you are new to the sect, you must be the treasures of your respective families, the rising stars, and the pillars of the future. There is no doubt that your means and vision must be above Qian. But after all, you are here The sect has not been around for a long time, and I am not familiar with Qian. Maybe some people think that my name is not worthy of the name or that it is just a name. This is normal. In recent days, I have been favored by everyone, and they have come to challenge me. Although I cannot bear it, I am not disturbed. The intention of accepting the challenge is not that I am afraid, but it is just a lazy word. However, today you are waiting for me at the sect's foreign ministers. It is really flattering to be so solemn, which shows your sincerity! If I reject your good intentions again, It seems that Qian is ignorant of the world and is too conceited, so now he has no choice but to show his shame. I wonder which of you can give me some advice first!"
To be honest, after Qian Chao finished speaking, there was some fighting among the children of the aristocratic families on the opposite side, all of whom seemed to want to grab the top spot. Just when there were still people in front of their team pulling and tearing each other, someone saw an opportunity. Jumped out and said loudly:
"I'm here, I'm here to fight you, I'll..."
Qian Chao interrupted him and said:
"Brother Dong Huannian, right? Please..."
