In the blink of an eye, it was the third day of the Cheng Guan En Examination.
Qian Chao came very early this morning. When he arrived here, the sky was almost not completely bright, but after only waiting for a while, Tang Ping and Yan Xuan came early, obviously to occupy the position.
Because he arrived early, there was almost no one around, so Qian Chao told Tang Ping and Yanxuan what Feng Youyou had said last night.
"Boy Qian, what do you think?" Tang Ping asked.
"In my opinion, Jing Jie's reaction is actually very understandable. This time he wants to have both sides, use other people's hands to do things for himself. His intention is very good, but there is one thing, that is, after all, the person doing the work They are not his men. He does not know the details of those people so he cannot be completely reassured. Moreover, it can be concluded from Feng You that Jing Jie will not let go of this matter. Since Brother Li and I competed on stage yesterday If it makes him worry, then it’s better to continue. Girl Tang, you and Brother Lu will compete on the stage next. You and Brother Lu simply let go and continue to scare him. If you can force Jing Jie to My own men will also be sent out to deal with us, so that when the net is finally closed, we can at least remove Jing Jie from the sect, what do you think?"
"What if..." Tang Ping glanced at Qian Chao, "What if we use too much force and scare Jing Jie completely, and he really changes his mind and doesn't continue?"
"I have also considered this. If Jing Jie really does this, it would be meaningless. In that case, many of my plans will not be used. But their people have already sneaked into the Five Spirits Sect. How can I make it happen?" Why did they leave so easily? If he really gave up halfway, then we would ignore it and go directly to the elders of the meeting hall to close the net in advance and ask the senior brothers who built the foundation in the sect to capture them directly. Although there was no There is direct evidence of their evil deeds, but I think that as long as they use some means to investigate, they can still gain something. But I still have to say that this possibility is very small. Jing Jie is a very greedy person, and he will definitely not take what he gets. If I spit it out again, I am sure that he will not back down when things get to this point. The only thing he should think about is how to find more people to do things for him. That way, it will be in our best interest in the end."
"Are you sure? What I mean is that this time my sixth grandfather said we must capture the dead ones. The dead ones are useless." Tang Ping asked.
Qian Chao nodded and said:
"The previous plan may seem flawed now, but the problem is not big. As for Tian Du and Jin Zhang's people, I am sure that they can be captured alive. If Jing Jie sends more people, the problem will not be big. We can still We can change our strategy to deal with them. Even if our manpower is really not enough in the end, when we have no choice, we can still ask the elders of the council. Two or three foundation-building brothers are completely enough, but I still I hope we can resolve this matter ourselves.”
Tang Ping said:
"Well, then, let's continue according to your plan. There is another thing I want to tell you. Sister Yan told me this morning that her master Zhong Yao also told her last night that she should Sister Yan, please also take part in this Cheng Guan grace test. Since you want to make things bigger, the three of us will definitely perform our best on stage."
After hearing this, Qian Chao looked at Yanxuan and said:
"Why did the kind-hearted Senior Zhong suddenly ask Sister Yan to participate in this grace examination?"
Yanxuan smiled and said:
"Probably because Brother Qian and Brother Li were so eye-catching in the ring yesterday, and the five of us are always together, my master also wanted to see how I was doing after seeing him, so he discussed it with me. Master will sign up for me today. The competition will take place in the next few days, and it’s okay to participate once. Since Brother Qian wants to force Jing Jie, wouldn’t it be appropriate for the five of us to perform on stage? "
Tang Ping said:
"Sister Yan, I think it must have something to do with the performance of Mr. Qian and Brother Li on the stage, but there must be some encouragement from my sixth grandfather and senior Kang Fu. After we left yesterday, I went to find my sixth grandfather, but he Several senior brothers in the cave told me that he and Senior Kang Fu went to Qixia Mountain, and they must have gone to lobby Senior Zhong."
Next, Lu Pingchuan and Li Jian arrived here one after another. Tang Ping told these two people what they had just said to Qian Chao. After hearing this, Lu Pingchuan happily said that it was no problem. As long as he takes the stage, he will definitely kill everyone.
"By the way," Tang Ping suddenly remembered something and asked Li Jian, "Brother Li, what did Senior Leng Yue say yesterday? When is your apprenticeship ceremony?"
Li Jian smiled and said:
"Senior Lengyue attaches great importance to this apprenticeship. The time will be finalized in about a month. During this time, she will write a letter and ask her... oh... to ask some of my senior brothers and sisters to come back to watch the ceremony. .”
"Wow, it looks like it's going to be lively again. Oh, by the way, after Brother Li becomes your disciple, will that girl Ling Yue become your junior sister?"
Li Jian smiled bitterly:
"That's right, Senior Leng Yue said it in front of me and Ling Yue. As long as Ling Yue's cultivation and skills can surpass mine one day in the future, then I will still change my name and call her senior sister. But as long as I can If we build the foundation before Ling Yue, then the status of these senior brothers and sisters will be determined. Alas, Ling Yue has never had a good look on me for this..."
"Haha, it's true!"
…
Exquisite wooden tables, exquisite tea snacks, fragrant spiritual tea, and a good place to watch Chengguan Enshi. Naturally, this place is occupied by a few big dudes, but today when Feng You deliberately rubbed his sleepy eyes, When I sat down with a sloppy look, I found that there were fewer people today.
Zong Xi and Lou Qingyao naturally sat together, and they were very close to each other. The rest Zhang Yi is here, Huan Chan is here, Jing Jie is here, besides Jin Zhang and Jiang Zhuopu are also here, but... why is no one from Meng Cailou here?
Hua Cong didn't show up for two days, which he felt was strange. Yesterday, Qi Ruoxuan sat for a while and then left. He Sinu stayed here all the time. Today, Qi Ruoxuan and He Sinu were not here. And Hua Cong, if you include today, has not seen the boy for three days. What happened?
Feng You didn't know that Hua Cong had been sealed in the cold pool by Qian Chao. Qian Chao was worried that he had accidentally said something else or that someone would notice the look on his face when he was asked about Hua Cong after knowing about it. I didn't tell him.
After sitting down, Feng You grabbed a piece of tea and stuffed it into his mouth and started chewing it. His cheeks kept moving while he asked vaguely:
"Why didn't Miss Qi come today?"
Well, asking this way is completely consistent with his status as a wanderer.
"Haha, if Brother Feng wants to know, you can go and ask in person." Jing Jie said jokingly.
"Well, it seems that the elders of Meng Cailou called them all over. I don't know if they have anything to say." Zong Xi said from the side.
Feng You deliberately stared at Lou Qingyao's waist greedily until Lou Qingyao showed disgust at him before continuing to ask:
"Brother Zong, will Miss Qi stay?"
Zong Xi laughed:
"Why, Brother Feng is attracted to Miss Qi?"
"Hehe, a gentleman is so brave!"
While talking and laughing, Feng You suddenly realized that something was not right about Jing Jie's expression today. Although he was joking with everyone, he always looked a little distracted. It seemed that something had been worrying him, and it seemed like that The hesitation before making up his mind puzzled Feng You, who was familiar with Jing Jie. Yesterday, he felt that Jing Jie must have dragged He Sinu into the water in order to deal with Qian Chao and the other five people. He could be summoned with just three people. There are three groups of clever people. With such power, is there anything he can worry about?
Or is there something wrong with He Sinu that prevented him from doing what he wanted?
Or is there something new going on?
No, Qian Chao needs to know about this situation.
Feng You saw it well. Just last night, He Sinu just returned to the room after asking for advice from Qi Ruoxuan and met Jing Jie. Although Jing Jie had a clear purpose for looking for him, he did not tell the truth at first. , but tried to lure He Sinu in various ways, trying to see if He Sinu still wanted to do something in the Five Spirits Sect, but what disappointed him greatly, He Sinu actually backed down, no matter how he Temptation and temptation, no matter how fancy his words were, He Sinu only said that he came to Wuling Sect this time just to go back safely, and did not dare to ask for anything more. The implication was that He Sinu only wanted to return to Meng Cailou. , as for the puppets, sword slaves and maids, he no longer wanted to interfere.
This greatly exceeded Jing Jie's expectations and disrupted Jing Jie's plan for a while.
Both Qian Chao's methods and Li Jian's astonishing performance on the stage made Jing Jie secretly surprised. Although Tian Du and Jin Zhang repeatedly assured him that their manpower was enough to deal with it, Jin Zhang was still unsure, and now he wanted to He Sinu pulled the other party in but refused to submit, what should we do?
What Jing Jie emphasizes in doing things is to use ten percent of his strength to do two or three things. He will never take action when he is evenly matched or can barely defeat his opponent. What he worries about is the word "accident", and only absolute He will only do things when he is sure of them. This is why although he has done a lot of things over the years, he has never failed and is why few people know.
As for He Sinu's sudden change of attitude, Jin Zhang also had his own opinion. He also noticed Hua Cong's disappearance and was a little surprised about it. Hua Cong was Meng Cailou's dandy, and his disappearance would inevitably cause Meng Cailou to lose his temper. Disciple Lou's uneasiness. Another thing is that Jin Zhang attacked Mei Qing before but was ruined by Qian Chao and five people, and the people who did it were all dead. Although Jing Jie said that it was Qian Chao and five people who did it, maybe after He Si It seemed to Nu that the person who ruined Jin Zhang's good deeds was not Qian Chao but Jing Jie. He was the one who deliberately sabotaged Jin Zhang's affairs so that Jin Zhang would obey him obediently. This may have made He Sinu suspicious of himself. and fear, so I dare not have any thoughts anymore.
But even if Jing Jie thinks he understands the reason, the predicament still exists. Now that Tian Du and Jin Zhang's people have come in, they are riding a tiger. He cannot give up halfway. Things must continue to be done. Since He Si Nu couldn't count on it... At this point, Jing Jie finally started to think about sending his own men in.
But... Jing Jie still has something on his mind here. He heard that Tang Ping and Lu Pingchuan were both going to compete on stage in this Cheng Guan En Examination, so he took the opportunity to see how these two were doing. He wanted to see how they were doing. It’s time to have a deeper understanding of the strength of the five Qian Chao people. If things can be done, then his people will be moved or not by him after they are sent in. If things cannot be done, or Qian Chao and the people of Qian Chao and Tian Du and Jin Zhang's people are in a lose-lose situation, then his people can In the end, he came forward to clean up the mess. In short, if Qian Chao could not be killed, he must also ensure that none of those who did it fell into Qian Chao's hands alive.
…
Although Tang Ping had a lot of bargaining with Tang Bonian last night and finally got some benefits for herself, there was still no competition between her and Lu Pingchuan today. After the big wooden sign was moved out, she carefully I've seen it, and it seems that the earliest she and Lu Pingchuan will go on stage is tomorrow, so today will be just a fun show.
On the third day, the five of them watched what could be considered the most boring competition.
Those who took the stage in that scene were two Qi-refining monks from Yueyinglin in Shuiyun Valley. Yueyinglin relied on illusion as its most important inheritance, and the two monks who took the stage seemed to want to compete on illusion. , and a boring and inexplicable competition began.
Qian Chao, Tang Ping and others were so close that they could still feel the tense and hostile atmosphere between the two people on the stage, but the behavior between the two people on the stage was very puzzling in the eyes of most people. , it can be seen that the two people's hand formulas have never stopped. From time to time, one of them will recite the formulas softly with his lips parted in order to strengthen his own spells. However, all they use are illusions, and during the competition, they can naturally only use illusions on their opponents and cannot harm others. In fact, even if the opponent uses illusions in actual combat, if it is specifically targeted at a certain person, For example, if the companions around him instead of himself, the monk himself would not be able to detect what his companions saw or felt in the illusion, not to mention the five stone pillars around the ring. A person's magical power is only limited to the square inch on the stage and will not spill out. Therefore, for everyone watching the stage, they saw the two people standing still at a distance from each other after they came on stage, with hands in their hands. They were busy working from beginning to end, except on the stage, there was no sound between the two people. However, these two people were equally powerful. No one could defeat the opponent for a while, so in the audience, time, After a while, the discussion started buzzing.
"Hey, what are those two people doing?" Lu Pingchuan had long been bored, so he turned around and asked.
"Probably...competing illusions." Tang Ping said.
"Why is there no movement at all?" Lu Pingchuan asked again.
"As for illusion, only the person who has been affected by the illusion knows what it is like in the illusion. Others have no way of knowing." Tang Ping said.
"That's so boring!" Lu Pingchuan finally said.
Although no one else knew what the two people on the stage were going through, people who were close could still see some clues, and guessed that the fight between the two people was also fierce and unusual. Although the two people were stable They were steady and motionless, but the expressions on the two people's faces began to change differently as time went by. Sometimes they seemed to be experiencing some horrible nightmare at the same time. Their faces were slightly pale and their bodies were shaking. They trembled and even opened their mouths to scream; sometimes one of them seemed to be experiencing some doomsday scene with a horrified face, while the other person's face was pink and his eyes were full of surprise and longing, as if he was seeing a rare beautiful spring scene in front of him. After a while, they all woke up. One of them woke up like a dream, while the other cursed secretly for being shameless. Then he immediately continued to change his techniques to cast more powerful illusions on the opponent.
Lu Pingchuan couldn't help but laugh at this scene:
"Hey, why are these two competing on stage to see who can sleep longer?"
This boring competition lasted for almost half an hour before it ended. When the winner was finally decided, one of them was seen shaking more and more violently. It seemed that he could no longer endure the torture in the illusion and finally screamed. He lay straight on his back and fainted. This sudden change shocked many people. The winner walked off the stage proudly under the complicated eyes of everyone. Seeing this scene, everyone in the audience was shocked. Everyone who had been impatient for a long time breathed a sigh of relief.
Well, the next competition will be exciting.
Among them, what surprised Qian Chao and the other five people the most was that the little girl from Jiugenyuan in the North, who was the daughter of Bai Kai, the elder of the Bai family in Jiugenyuan, actually took the stage to compete.
Yanxuan said in surprise:
"Isn't that the original little girl from Jiogen? The one who was very familiar with Senior Sister Yan Shuang?"
It was indeed Bai San. At this time, this little girl actually changed into a green dress of a female disciple of the Five Spirits. She was not old, but she had a slim figure. She seemed to have just come to the Five Spirits Sect from the North. She is still not used to the habit of women here to tie their hair into a bun. Her shiny black hair is casually hanging around the back of her head. This girl's face is charming and pretty, which can be said to be a national beauty. Her childish look is still there on her pink and jade-like face. , and this woman still retains a bit of a child's mentality. Even when she stepped onto the ring, she jumped up with three steps and two steps. As soon as she stepped on the stage, everyone's eyes were fixed on her. Attracted.
Tang Ping also said in surprise:
"It is indeed her, but why is she dressed like this? Could it be that she came here this time to directly enter the Five Spirit Sect and become a disciple, and she had no intention of participating in any hundred-year ceremony?"
Qian Chao said:
"It seems like this. It must be that the situation in Jiugenyuan is still not optimistic, which is why they have to completely turn to the Five Spirits Sect. The daughter of the Jiugenbai family was directly sent to the Five Spirits Sect as a disciple. It must be We must continue to build a solid covenant relationship with the Five Spirits Sect.”
Bai Fu's opponent is a man, his name is not important, he is from Jiuxuan. After taking action, he found out that this man's five elements magic is very pure.
But after the competition started, Bai Shi's methods were really more surprising.
Most of the spells in the North are based on the art of controlling ice. It is said that in the Jiu Gen Plains, the Bai family is the master of the art of controlling ice. There is also a saying that the establishment of the Wuling Sect was due to the influence of the Five Spirits in the world a long time ago. The sect was established to resist the monks from outside the sea who came from across the sea. It is said that the ancestor who founded the Shuiyun Valley Bibo Pond at that time was born in Jiugenyuan, so he left behind the extraordinary inheritance of ice control techniques.
After the competition started, Bai Fu bowed obediently to her opponent. Her opponent was not weak, and she did not show any mercy because Bai Fu was a woman. She used all her methods from the beginning. Red and scorching fireballs were shot out in succession, sizzling lightnings swam around the ring like white snakes, and groups of whistling wind blades all greeted Bai Sui mercilessly.
Tang Ping noticed that after seeing the other party's methods, Bai San's big eyes suddenly shone, as if he had encountered something interesting, so he couldn't help but whisper:
"Well, he's also a little lunatic!"
The disciples below the ring immediately felt as if they had suddenly entered the winter season after Bai Fu took action, and their whole bodies were completely covered with ice. But above the ring, it was completely a scene of ice and snow, with snowballs and fireballs colliding with each other in the air. White lights and red lights annihilated each other and turned into clouds of steaming white vapor; countless huge ice crystals quickly rotated around Bai Nao's slender waist, and then kept blocking her in front of her before being attacked. The coming wind blade shattered it into pieces and turned into countless fine ice crystals that filled the air; and when countless electric lights on the ground and in the air came swarming like a group of white snakes, Bai Fu's figure was in the electric light. It swam like a startling giant, as if the powerful and crackling lightning bolts were just little white snakes, and she was playing with the snakes, turning and dodging as if dancing. , the skirt of the green skirt was flying together with her full head of hair, it was really beautiful, but no lightning could fall on her body.
"Good movement." Li Jian praised.
From time to time, Bai Fu would find time to fight back once or twice. The small snowball rolled in front of her towards the opponent at high speed. It was as big as an egg at first and was as big as a wine jar. In an instant, it was as big as a small house when it was in front of the opponent. The opponent frequently dodged, and finally had to fly up and hide in mid-air, and then use his methods on Bai San.
Well, Bai Fu must be a playful girl. When her opponent used tricks on her in the air, she actually used tricks on the ring, and a small house made of white snow appeared, as well as a door made of snow, while she was hiding. In the room, he was still quietly watching his opponent behind the crack in the door. Unfortunately, the snow house was quickly destroyed by his opponent's tactics. Then, as if out of anger, Bai Fu actually built a big house out of ice again. This big house was like a carefully crafted ice sculpture. It not only had doors and windows, but also carved window lattice and panes. There was actually something in the room. There are corresponding furniture and furnishings, which shows that this white boy still has a childish heart. However, it is conceivable that this almost transparent big house also cracked and collapsed under the opponent's tactics, and the broken ice "clattered" scattered on the ground. Now the girl Bai Fan seemed a little unhappy, and began to take it seriously. They came up with some means to deal with it, and then a white wind and snow blew above the arena. Naturally, the power of this wind and snow will not affect the people watching in the audience, but everyone is shocked when they see this scene. The stage is completely white, and the snowflakes are rolled into chaos amidst the howling wind. Generally speaking, there were a few red lights flashing through it at first. It seemed that the Jiuxuan disciples who were trapped in it tried to fight back, but soon there was no movement. When the wind and snow disappeared, a large snowball appeared unexpectedly. He stayed on the stage, and a person's shoulders and head were exposed from the top of the snowball. It was the Jiuxuan disciple. He was fine, but his face was extremely red from suffocation. He was probably angry that he had behaved in such a way. Lost to a little girl.
When Bai Fu saw him, he immediately released the opponent, with a look of embarrassment on his face. When the foundation-building monks in the audience loudly announced that Bai Fu had won this match, everyone was already cheering.
This competition also shocked Tang Ping, who had also worked hard at the art of ice control. This girl's ice control art was both majestic and meticulous, and Tang Ping felt a little inferior to her. .
This competition also made many seniors nod in the eyes of many elders in Chengguan Tower.
Especially Tang Bonian.
After seeing Bai Fang's methods, he was so fond of it that he started to have some thoughts of accepting a disciple.
But after all, this girl has a special status. She is the daughter of the Jiugen Bai family and the daughter of Bai Lai. Well, I guess the sect will have arrangements for this girl.
Sitting next to him were still Fairy Guhuo and Senior Kang Fu. Fairy Guhuo could see Tang Bonian's thoughts at a glance and said with a smile:
"Why, after seeing a good young talent, you are tempted to take on a disciple?"
"Well, let's forget it. That girl Tang Ping has given me enough headaches. This white girl is not a fuel-efficient lamp at first glance. She might be a more naughty guy. I'd better not make trouble for myself. , how nice it is to be quiet and peaceful.”
"ha……"
