Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Lingzhou Chapter 38 Signed
After the polite and humble words between Han Yu and Feng Yuanshan fell into Wang Chu's ears, according to his always upright and rough character, it was inevitable that he would say silently in his heart, "Two pretentious and sanctimonious old foxes. ”
But even though he thought so in his heart, he wouldn't say it directly.
Soon after, the Linesman Elder who was in charge of the entire selection tournament finally announced the list of the top 20 successful this time.
Among them, the Chunzi faction, one faction occupies nine people, which can be said to have stolen the limelight, which made Song Yu, who is the elder of the Chunzi faction, can't help but be a little beautiful and proud for a while, and closely followed by the Chunzi faction, that is, the Xia faction that retained the second position, five of them won, and finally four people from the Qiuzi faction, and two people from the winter faction.
This list was recorded by the Linesman Elder himself, and after reading it out in public, a copy was drafted and sent to Zhao Bailian's hands.
After Zhao Bailian took the list, she glanced at the list with twenty names recorded, and then said to Song Yu with a smile: "Congratulations to Elder Song's faction for successfully winning the first place, but in the next competition, I hope that Elder Song can continue to urge his disciples to get a better ranking." ”
When Song Yu heard this, he clasped his fists and saluted and said, "The sect master has praised it, my disciple of the Chunzi Sect should be like this!"
Zhao Bailian nodded at this, and said no more, but in fact, no one knew that in his heart at this moment, he was actually more or less unhappy, because he could already compare it according to this list, in the meditation hall, in the list of ten people given to him by Song Yu and Feng Yuanshan, not even a single name was squeezed into the current top 20 list.
It can be seen how perfunctory these two were at the beginning.
But fortunately, Zhao Bailian has now achieved the goal he wanted to achieve from the beginning, and naturally, he doesn't have to pursue those past things, just sneering in his heart.
......
After sorting out the list of participants in the Baishan Spring Hunt, the two sighs of relief that the Linesman Elder held tightly in his heart could be regarded as relieved, and the next competition could be said to be an incentive deliberately put forward by Zhao Bailian for the disciples of the sect to practice hard.
The linesman took the reward system in his hand, and inevitably felt a little embarrassed by the rich rewards, he took a deep breath, and then said loudly: "Since the spring hunting list has been released, then the next competition reward old man will no longer be hidden, and the rewards that can enter the top three this time are:"
The first place will receive a set of sword techniques passed down by the sect master himself, and at the same time, he can also go to the Seven Star Pier to practice for a month, and be given a Peiyuan Pill.
The second place is the opportunity to get a month of cultivation on the Seven Star Pier and be given a Peiyuan Pill.
The third place will get the opportunity to practice on the Seven Star Pier for one month. ”
After the linesman elder said the rewards of the top three, the disciples in the audience fell into a dead silence uncharacteristically, but then, there was an uproar and crazy voices in the audience.
These three rewards, for the inner disciples of the lower three realms, are completely irresistible temptations, not to mention how precious the sword technique passed down by the sect master who can only be obtained in the first place will be, it is the Pei Yuan Dan in the second place, which is enough to make the disciples above the ninth layer present crazy, this is a realm-breaking pill exclusively supplied by the dynasty, whether it is the lower three realms to break through to the middle three realms, or the middle three realms to break through to the upper three realms, it is said that after taking this pill, the probability of success of the people who break through the realm can be improved at least about five layers, which is for those who are stuck on the threshold of thirty years old, and have failed to enter the middle three realms after many attempts to break through the realmIt is undoubtedly the last hope for breaking the realm, and it is also a new life.
As we all know, for sword cultivation in the world, if a person can't break through to the fourth floor when he reaches the age of thirty, then there is basically no hope for this person to break through to a higher level in this life, after all, everyone will grow older, and their potential will gradually decay more and more, which is the natural rule of life itself, and it is also the eternal iron law of the long cultivation process.
As for the matter of entering the Seven Star Pier to practice for a month, although none of the disciples present (except Xu Yan) had personally experienced it, who wouldn't want to enter the cultivation holy land that could only be entered by the sect master since the third generation of the Lotus Sect's sect master?
......
What is a practice?
Perhaps no one can give a clear answer to this question.
But for people like Xu Yan who once stood at the top, cultivation is to find the limit.
All kinds of limits include not only the limits of finding one's own body, but also the limits of even a certain concept in one's mind, and even the limits of finding the world in which one is located!
......
After the noise of the audience gradually subsided, the Linesman Elder reverted to his original cold expression, and then he took out a bamboo tube with fifteen bamboo sticks in it, and said to the disciples of the four factions who had been waiting in the preparation area for a long time: "Now, you disciples who have successfully advanced to the fourth round can come and draw them in turn as the order of appearance of the fourth round. ”
But before a certain disciple of the Chunzi Sect drew the first lot, the Linesman Elder coldly let out a thunderous remark, and he spoke: "Since the fourth round is singular in terms of numbers, in order to be able to re-adjust the number back to even in the next round, in this round, there will be one person who will draw a bye, and the person who draws this bye will undoubtedly be able to directly advance to the top eight list of the fifth round." ”
After this news was released, it directly shocked all the disciples in the audience, some of them were extremely excited, some frowned at it, and some people with lively personalities even shouted loudly that this system was simply cheating, not only there were huge flaws, but also there was no fairness at all.
The Linesman seemed to have expected this, and immediately snorted coldly and scolded: "Cultivators, only strength is the greatest right to speak, but even so, everyone can't underestimate the luck that favors them on the way to practice, because there are often many times when some people are just a little bit away from the so-called success." ”
After these words were said, the Elder Linesman no longer explained anything too much, but said coldly to the Chunzi Sect disciple in front of him, who had already walked in front of him: "What are you doing stupidly, why don't you hurry up and draw lots?"
When this Chunzi Sect disciple heard this, he already had a hundred regrets in his heart, and secretly scolded himself for being stupid, so anxious to do anything, after all, the further he went, the greater the probability of winning the bye, but obviously, he had no chance to regret it, so he could only smile bitterly and stretched out his hand to pull out the first bamboo stick.
"Fourth round, third game!"
After tearing open the piece of paper and looking at the words revealed on the bamboo stick, this Chunzi Sect disciple was undoubtedly a little depressed, but after seeing the indifferent expression of the Linesman Elder who was watching coldly, he didn't dare to complain verbally, and after registering, he immediately gave way to the lottery position.
The process of drawing lots was carried out very quickly, among the six people of the Chunzi faction, five people had drawn bamboo lots in a blink of an eye, and Zhou Xian was the last to draw lots, but it was obvious that no one, including Zhou Xian, had drawn byes.
After the spring character faction, it is the summer character faction in order.
As Chen Qinghe, who has the highest prestige in the Xia Zi faction, just like the integrity he carries, he was the first to draw the bamboo stick, but he was not like Zhou Xian, who hid in the last disciple of the same sect to draw lots. However, luck is not something that can be obtained by whoever is upright, so after the four people of the Xia Zi faction were drawn one by one, the bye lottery was still not drawn.
Ten people have passed, and the bye is still not out, which undoubtedly makes the people behind feel a little short of breath.
When the three disciples of the Qiuzi Sect came to the lottery place, the other two undoubtedly glanced at the handsome boy led by him, and when the handsome boy saw this, he smiled indifferently and said: "Why do you stick to this kind of subsection, cultivators, be frank and open, remember, your own luck, no one can take it away." ”
Immediately, the handsome boy took the lead in pulling out one of the bamboo sticks, but he threw it directly to the linesman elder, without even tearing the paper, and then shook the folding fan and floated away, so not chic.
But in the end, the three people of the Qiuzi faction never drew a bye.
In the end, only Xu Yan and Qiu Yuanjin of the Dongzi faction were left who came to the lottery place.
Xu Yan stretched out his hand and directly pulled out two bamboo sticks, then turned to Qiu Yuanjin with a smile and said, "Senior sister, choose one, we who don't want to draw lots in the end have half a chance of drawing byes." ”
When Qiu Yuanjin heard this, she also smiled, and reached out to take one of the bamboo sticks, but after she tore it open, it was written, "Fourth round, sixth game." ”
Seeing this, Xu Yan said to the linesman elder with some tears and laughter: "It seems that I don't need to tear it apart, and the answer is already coming out." ”
