In the early morning of the next day, Lan Sheng was still sleeping soundly in her room, when a sudden shaking woke her up from her dream.
Lan Sheng slowly opened his eyes, and dimly saw Zhuling's figure. He pushed her away angrily: "Sister, please stop shaking her. Let me sleep for a while."
During the days when Master Yunxu was away, Lan Sheng slept until the sun was shining every day. He never got up so early.
"Lan Sheng, Lan Sheng, I have to attend the Cloud Exploration Conference today." Zhuling supported Lan Sheng and patted her cheek gently.
"Cloud Exploration Conference?" Lan Sheng rubbed his eyes and tried to cheer up.
With his eyebrows focused, he saw Master Yunxu staring at him from behind Zhuling. Lan Sheng was still in a daze before he could react, and murmured: "Master? Didn't you come down the mountain?"
"Evil disciple, how long do you want to sleep?" A cold and angry voice came, which immediately frightened Lan Sheng away from most of his sleep, and he hurriedly got up to wash up.
After Lan Sheng washed up, he came to the hall. Porridge and side dishes had been placed on the table, and Zhu Ling was eating it with relish.
At this time, a loud horn sound came from Tianyun Palace. This was the sky-ringing ceremony before the opening of the Cloud Exploration Conference.
Master Yunxu glared at Lan Sheng and said: "You two, please don't embarrass me." After saying this, he waved his sleeves and headed to Tianyun Palace first.
As the head of the elders of Yuntian, he needs to preside over the ceremony and make the announcement of the sacrifice to the sky.
The Tanyun Conference is held every three years and is related to the selection of disciples from the elders of the Gate Sect. It is highly valued by elders at all levels in Yuntian. Many disciples who came down the mountain also rushed back to Yuntian, hoping to show their talents at the meeting. When Lan Sheng and Zhuling arrived at Tianyun Hall, it was already a sea of people.
The square was crowded with people. It was Zhuling's first time to participate in the Cloud Exploration Conference. Neither of them knew the process of participating. They glanced around and didn't know where to go. Just when the two were at a loss, senior brother Du Ce came over. There were many disciples participating in the competition, and he was responsible for maintaining order at the scene.
"Just wait here for a while." Du Ce led Lan Sheng and Zhu Ling to a martial arts training ground, and then went to guide other participating disciples.
There are dozens of martial arts training grounds like this. Lan Sheng looked at the crowds of people in each martial arts training ground, and was a little confused about how the magic techniques could be used: "How will we compete in martial arts?"
"I heard that before officially participating in the meeting, a spiritual test must be conducted. According to the strength of the spiritual power, the disciples will be divided into three realms: Guanwei, Touching and Tanyun. Disciples in different realms will compete separately." Zhu Ling Ruo said. Si's response was that although she grew up in Yuntian, she didn't like to practice, had never paid attention to the Cloud Exploration Conference, and knew little about it.
"Why do we need to separate realms? Can't we just compete directly?" Lan Sheng didn't quite understand why the competition process was so complicated.
"The purpose of the Cloud Exploration Conference is to discover disciples with potential and qualifications. This is done to separate disciples with varying levels of cultivation, so that disciples with low levels of cultivation can also have the opportunity to show themselves." A gentle voice came from the crowd.
Lan Sheng frowned and saw two figures squeezed out of the crowd. One of them has sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and the other is tall and burly. They are Yuwen Haosheng and Xia Wei from Zhenyi Pavilion.
"Lan Sheng, I haven't seen you for a long time, but do you still recognize me?" Yuwen Haosheng walked up to Lan Sheng, with a hint of teasing in his tone.
"Why are you here?" Lan Sheng stared at the two of them, thinking that he was dazzled because they were still wearing the white clothes of Yuntian disciples.
"Since the last time I saw Miss Lan Sheng's swordsmanship, I felt that I was not good at it, so I came to Yuntian to become my teacher. I didn't expect that I would just catch up with this conference, and I didn't expect that I would meet Lan Sheng again. I will invite you two in the future Senior sister, please take care of me." After saying this, he pulled Xia Wei and bowed to Lan Sheng and Zhu Ling.
I was pestered by him for a while in Zhenyi Pavilion. I didn't expect that he would be so lingering and that I could still meet him when I returned to Yuntian. Lan Sheng looked disgusted with Yuwen Haosheng and didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he immediately pulled his senior sister away.
When Yuwen Haosheng saw that Lan Sheng was about to leave, he followed him shamelessly. He shamelessly introduced himself to Zhuling, but Lan Sheng glared at him and stopped following him.
Seeing Yuwen Haosheng following them, Zhuling was also a little curious: "Lan Sheng, do you know them?"
"Senior sister, he is a gangster..." Lan Sheng danced and told Zhuling what happened in Zhenyi Pavilion, and also talked about his confession to her.
While Lan Sheng was talking non-stop, a disciple gave them a number plate, and a message came from the square that the spirit testing was about to begin.
At this time, I looked towards the Tianyun Palace and saw that the head of Yuntian and many elders were already sitting in the hall. The crowd in the square in front of the hall had also been cleared and replaced by a large mirror.
After a while, Du Ce's voice came from above Tianyun Palace. The volume was not loud, but it was very penetrating: "There is a floating illusion mirror in front of Tianyun Palace. This mirror can absorb and reflect spiritual power. Then everyone competed The disciples need to make moves to the Floating Fantasy Mirror according to the order of the numbers, and receive the reflected spiritual power. The elders will divide the realms of the disciples according to the strength of the moves."
The selection of disciples to enter the house is mainly based on talent. Talented people have stronger understanding, and the depth and speed of cultivation are far beyond ordinary people. Only in this way can we focus on cultivating them.
However, being shortlisted for a higher realm can also prove the current strength. In every Cloud Exploration Conference, there are many people who have been eliminated from the spiritual search. After speaking, Du Ce repeatedly emphasized: "The division of realms does not affect the selection of disciples, and we should do according to our ability." , don’t force yourself, if you fail to absorb the reflected spiritual energy, you will be disqualified.”
After Du Ce explained the rules of spirit testing, he began to conduct spirit testing in order of numbers in front of the floating mirror.
Spirit testing requires the maximum output of spiritual power without backlash, that is, testing the strength of spiritual power and moves, and also tests the disciple's understanding and control of the success of his or her own practice. Many disciples gathered around the square, trying to figure out the moves of the spirit-detecting disciples, discussing and communicating with each other to improve their own practice.
Lan Sheng was bored waiting in the martial arts training ground. He looked around and glanced at the number plate. It was still some time before they were able to detect spirits. He also pulled Zhuling and squeezed into the crowd in the square.
Then in addition to discussing magic techniques, there was another voice in the square:
"Wow! His move is so cool..."
"Hey! He looks so vulgar..."
"Yeah! I can do this too..."
…
There are many disciples taking part in the competition, and it’s already too late for Lan Sheng and Zhu Ling’s turn to test spirits.
Zhuling came on stage before Lan Sheng. Although she didn't like spells, she had been practicing since she was a child. She was familiar with the moves and could control her spiritual power easily. Her performance in detecting spirits was widely praised by the elders.
But Lan Sheng is more in trouble. She has contained spiritual power in her body since she was a child, and her spiritual power is not weak. However, her training time is short, and she is not yet proficient in using some techniques to dissolve spiritual power. If she attacks violently, her spiritual power will eventually How will the force be resisted when it is reflected back?
This was the third time that Lan Sheng's name was called out on the field, but Lan Sheng never came on the field. All the disciples who were watching were talking about it.
At this time, a sharp-eyed elder found the helpless Lan Sheng in the crowd.
After being found out, Lan Sheng had no choice but to bravely go on stage under the watchful eyes of his brothers. He just stood in front of the floating mirror but didn't know how to make a move.
After seeing Zhuling's outstanding performance, all the elders were full of expectations for Lan Sheng, and looked puzzled when they saw that Lan Sheng had not made any move.
After thinking hard for a while, Lan Sheng didn't have any good ideas. He thought that it would not work if he continued to waste so much, so he could only bear it.
Then Lan Sheng started to make his lucky moves, and a burst of spiritual power roared out, with the potential to destroy everything. The elders present nodded. However, a moment later, Lan Sheng flew out another palm and used the power of his palm to forcefully absorb the reflected spiritual energy.
The palm power and the spiritual power collided, and a wave of waves spread from the center of the square to the outside, causing the disciples around to stagger. Some disciples with lower cultivation levels were directly pushed to the ground by the spiritual power.
The elders had never seen such a scene before, and they were all dumbfounded. For a moment, they didn't know how to rate it.
disuse? But she caught the spiritual power.
Not eliminated? But the other disciples didn’t catch it!
The elders came back to their senses and thought that Lan Sheng was the "disciple" of Master Yunxu, so they finally gave him high marks and praised Master Yunxu's disciples for his extraordinary actions and blockbuster.
Yunxu Shangxian had a gloomy face all the time, but he couldn't get angry easily, so he could only smile apologetically.
At dusk, all the participating disciples have completed the spirit testing, the conference has come to an end, and Lan Sheng has become a "celebrity" in Yuntian, and is famous and dignified.
In the Rising Sun Palace, Lan Sheng lowered his head and was accepting the scolding from Master Yunxu.
"Who taught you to use spiritual power to counteract spiritual power? Did you want to demolish Tianyun Palace together?" Yunxu Shangxian scolded, casually glanced at the newly repaired courtyard wall, and became angry. Come everywhere.
"That's because the master's teachings are not good. He didn't even teach me a few moves to transform qi. But I also used my own method to absorb the spiritual power. Others can't absorb it because they have low cultivation. They are like me. Even if you are so powerful, you can still take over the spiritual power." Lan Sheng retorted, his tone was very aggrieved.
Master Yunxu was speechless after Lan Sheng's retort. Master and disciple started arguing about right and wrong. It was very heated. Zhuling wanted to plead for Lan Sheng but couldn't get in, so she had to Watching from the sidelines.
Except for the method of transforming power that made Master Yunxu a little embarrassed, Lan Sheng's other performance was still very satisfactory to Master Yunxu. After all, her total training time was only two years, and she didn't really want to punish her. She was just a disciple. You can't lose your momentum in front of you.
Then, the master and apprentice had a friendly discussion for a long time, until Du Ce's "bang bang bang" knocking on the door came from outside the hall.
Du Ce bowed to pay tribute to Master Yunxu and said with a joyful face: "Congratulations, Master, Lan Sheng and Zhu Ling have both been shortlisted for the realm of exploring the clouds."
This time he came specially to announce the good news, and then also introduced the venue arrangements for tomorrow's competition to Lan Sheng and Zhuling.
The competition venues for disciples of different realms are slightly different. Tomorrow's competition for disciples of the micro realm will still be held in the martial arts field. The competition method is somewhat like the usual martial arts competitions.
The contact realm is more difficult than the microscopic realm, and the disciples compete on a grid composed of chains.
However, Tanyun Realm does not have a specially built competition venue, and the disciples will conduct on-site competitions at Duanri Cliff.
