The Ethereal City Lantern Festival and the Ethereal City Auction, as the two largest events before the sect competition, are of extraordinary significance.

First of all, each auction of the Ethereal City will be held on a hill that can accommodate 10,000 people.

Not to mention the proceeds of the auction, just buying tickets can be a lot of money.

The price of a ticket for an auction is 40 lower grade spirit stones, the price of the ticket is not too high, and even for monks, it can be said that anyone can afford it.

However, the Ethereal Spirit Sect has partnerships with some "official scalpers", and the real ticket price will always float high, even to 80 lower grade spirit stones.

But even if it's a lot more expensive, you still have to buy it, after all, it's okay to take a look.

You must know that the Ethereal Sect Auction House will take out the auction items that will be pressed at the bottom of the box in the middle of the year before the sect competition.

If you can't afford to eat pork, you can also watch the pigs run.

Not only that, but why did the auction house of the Ethereal Spirit Sect become the largest auction house in Wutong Continent?

Quite simply, in addition to the guarantee of strength, the most important thing is reputation and fame.

And why do the monks of the Ethereal Sect have a sense of superiority at most, but very few people will make trouble unreasonably?

For example, Jiang Lin broke into the Ethereal Spirit Sect this time.

If it is an ordinary mountain, it is estimated that the whole army will attack, regardless of 3721, on which night when the wind is high, it is estimated that it will touch in and beat the stick, and the river will sink into the river.

But people are different, people know reason, move with affection, although you broke into my Ethereal Sect, and even had a scandal with Miss Bao Moli of our Sect, I also have a reason to sink you into the river, but our Ethereal Sect convinces people with virtue, and we are atmospheric.....

This is reputation, you have to be accommodated, and others will trust you.

And then there's fame, and that's how the sect is like that!

Don't think that hosting the Olympics costs money.

This is important for increasing international influence, and the economic development that comes with it is simply multifaceted.

Seriously, if it weren't for the fear of people's "aesthetic fatigue" and "reduced sense of economic expectation" for the Olympics, which country would not want to be Olympic every day......

The second is the Ethereal City Lantern Festival.

It was also with the help of the strong wind of the sect competition that the Ethereal Sect had achieved cultural output very well.

Originally, the Lantern Festival was just a festival for the ancestors of the Ethereal Sect to commemorate their Taoist companions.

As a result, five or six times the sect has competed, and it has become a festival in Wutong Prefecture subtly, can this not have face?

Jiang Lin has a dream, that is, to let the Sun Moon Sect also hold a sect competition, and also do a cultural export.

At that time, the sales of the Sun Moon Sect's specialty belly pocket will definitely double, I don't know how many times!

Let Xiao Hei make an assembly line to mass-produce Sun Moon Sect peripheral products...... It is estimated that I will not have to worry about living for hundreds of years......

Straight to the point.

The Wutongzhou Lantern Festival is indeed a cultural output, and I have to say that people are indeed lively, and the whole city is basically jubilant.

And on this day, the project of this Wutong State competition will also be booked.

The Wutong State competition is not five people together, fighting each other, whoever fights to the end will win......

Though there are them, they are very back.

At the beginning of the qualifiers, the form of the competition was very diverse, for example, the first game of a competition was to see who could compose a poem well......

This made some of the martial arts buddies extremely irritable......

But even if it is irritable, it is still a bad culture, and finally made a poem that has been sung for a long time like "dark plum and quiet flowers, green stone spring mud......

That time, the martial arts ranking was the worst, it was miserable......

After that, this kind of professional competition is basically gone, and it will be hammered by other professions......

Thereupon...... The chant is placed in this festival of lights.

On this day, not only will the content of the competition be revealed, but also the order and grouping of each sect will be set, and the order and grouping of this competition can be selected.

The requirement is piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Whoever is good at writing poetry, playing the piano well, or painting and playing chess, whoever is good will choose the opponent first.

There's no way, after all, these extremely casual monks have an empty realm, but when it comes to fighting against the enemy, this is really not enough......

This is not to say that monks such as poets lack the skill of killing.

Among them, the poet's poetic transformation, the musician's sonic attack, and the chess player's "lower son" are all killing techniques of the Great Road.

Some literary monks are also proficient in this.

For example, the birth of the Qin Demon and other extremely lethal people in the literary and artistic demons.

The question is...... There are few monks......

Many artist-type monks still yearn for harmony and nature, and although their strength is not bad, they also refuse to use their art to kill people, believing that this is an insult to the art they have studied......

So having strength and being good at fighting are two different things......

And in order to take care of those monks who specialize in art, and in order not to be biased in the project of the sect competition, I had to select people and group them at the Lantern Festival to make it more convenient.

The problem is that with the changes of the times, the demon clan is attacking Haoran more and more fiercely.

In recent years, many monks such as qin, chess, calligraphy and painting have picked up "kitchen knives" in order to protect themselves, or to wait until the world is broken and can have the strength to fight.

Is their strength really weak now, it's a bit hard to say......

But no matter what! Jiang Lin and the others decided! You must get a good ranking in tonight's qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, otherwise you will be divided into the death group at the beginning, isn't this nonsense?

Of course, there is more than one person who thinks this way with Jiang Lin and his party......

At the same time, on the day when the rumors came out, the ancestor of the Ethereal Spirit Sect came to the mountain behind the main peak and saw his granddaughter again.

"Grandpa......"

"Leaving ......"

Seeing her grandfather, the girl was very happy in her heart, although her grandfather had always wanted her to marry, but the girl also knew that this was all for the continuation of the Ethereal Sect.

If it weren't for that, Mo Li believed that his grandfather would not be in such a hurry to marry him off.

Moreover, after her mother left, she never saw her father, and her grandfather was the girl's only relative in this world.

The grandfather and granddaughter hugged each other and touched Moli's head, and the old man who hadn't seen his granddaughter for a year was a little emotional.

In just one year, Mo Li has grown so tall, and he has become more and more slim.

And I don't know if it's my own illusion, I always feel that Moli's complexion seems to be good.

"Why is Grandpa here today?"

Raising his head and looking at his grandfather, Mo Li said suspiciously, in the past, grandpa came on his birthday.

"Well...... this"

The old man took his granddaughter's hand and sat on the stool, looking a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.

"Is there anything Grandpa wants to say to Moli?"

Seeing that her grandfather was about to speak and stopped, the girl asked.

"Lili......" the old man scratched the back of his head, "Grandpa has something to ask you." ”

"Grandpa, please."

"That...... Xiaoli...... Have you seen any strange people in the past two days? ”
