Chapter 118 My daughter performed on stage for the first time, and the three-year-old soul boy guarded the ring.
February twenty-first.
Equinox, drizzle.
The road from Jinguang Mansion to the branch gate of the Qianyuan Shen Sect was completely congested, and carriages on the narrow road even overtook each other, and no one was allowed to pass.
Inside the carriage.
Li Che, Zhang Ya, Granny Mu and Xixi were riding in a carriage. Xixi was lively and excited.
I don't feel at all that taking the Shenzong exam is something worth being nervous about. It's like going out for an outing, full of exploration and curiosity about new things.
She looked through the carriage window at the densely packed motorcade outside, as well as many figures holding children and rushing there on foot, and kept exclaiming.
"Dad, there are so many people!"
It was the first time for Xixi to see so many people, and she felt very surprised. It turns out that there are still so many people in the world!
"There are indeed many more people participating in the assessment this year than in previous years." Granny Mu looked at Xixi lovingly, with a bit of reluctance in her eyes.
After today, Xixi will definitely enter Shenzong, and she will have to go up to the towering green peak of Shenzong, and there will be less days to go home.
However, Granny Mu was able to let Li Qingshan take her to visit Xixi, which relieved a lot of her worries.
"Li Qingshan said that this year's assessment seems to be related to the strange temple of the Four Emperors in the center of the Jiulong River outside the mansion. Things involving the strange temple are risky, but also have great opportunities."
Grandma Mu said.
Zhang Ya's eyes showed worry: "Is it related to the four strange temples? Isn't it too dangerous?"
"But Xixi has to go to Shenzong..."
Zhang Ya's eyes were filled with confusion, and she turned to look at Li Che, asking for help.
"Don't worry, since Shenzong dares to open the Four Royal Weird Temple to test these children, he naturally has some tricks."
Li Che smiled and reassured.
Li Qingshan said that the branch of Shenzong used the [Hell Lotus Wind Fire Golden Light Wheel], which is the Four Divine Weapons!
It was obvious that he took it very seriously. Since he dared to open it, he was obviously confident. This was not the first time he had done such a thing.
Since Li Che said there was no problem, Zhang Ya believed it.
She just believed in Li Che so blindly.
"The carriage is completely blocked. We can't move much forward for half a day... Why don't we go on foot."
Li Che glanced at the sky and couldn't help but say.
If you are stuck in traffic and miss the time, that would be a bad thing.
Not only Li Che had this plan, but the other people in the carriage also got out of the carriage, holding or holding him, and headed towards the Shenzong Mountain Gate.
Neither Zhang Ya nor Granny Mu had any objections. They were both practicing people, and it was just a little bit of progress, which was nothing at all.
Li Che carried Xixi on his back, let her open a small oil-paper umbrella, and got off the carriage directly, taking a step forward, bathing in the spring breeze and rain, as if going on an outing.
After getting off the carriage and walking on foot, the speed picked up.
After a while, they passed through the downtown area of Jinguang Fucheng and came to the Shenzong Mountain Gate.
The lawns stretch on both sides, and the green grass sways with the spring breeze, stained with crystal clear raindrops.
A conspicuous green peak rises from the ground, straight into the sky. This peak was seen through the majestic city gate before. The entire Jinguang Mansion City seemed to be built around this peak.
But when we got closer, we discovered that there was an extremely vast area around the mountain peak.
Looking up at the green peaks, they are towering and green, and the vegetation is lush and green. You can see that in the misty rain, there is green smoke lingering from the mountainside.
…
On the bank of the Jiulong River, there is a mountain peak rising abruptly from the ground. It is the main peak of the Qianyuan Shenzong of Lingnan Dao in Yunzhou, Jinguang Peak.
There are many small peaks around Jinguang Peak, but they are not very conspicuous, and they are completely taken away by Jinguang Peak.
Those peaks are the peaks of the caves that can only be established by Xuxiang monks in the branch of the Shen Sect.
For example, Li Qingshan was qualified to open a cave because of his virtual combat power. The peak of his cave was named "Zhenglei Peak".
Walking through a green grassland, you can see a huge white jade archway at the foot of Jinguang Peak.
In the huge grassy open space in front of the archway, a huge and exquisite wooden platform was built with wood.
The area around the wooden platform was occupied by forces one after another, all of which were top forces from Jinguang City.
The five major aristocratic families, Qin, Gong, Hai, Shangguan and Gongyang aristocratic families, all attached great importance to it. Not only the clan leaders came, but also the gods and ancestors of the clans appeared in person.
For example, Qin Dikun, the godly ancestor of the Qin family, appeared on the stage built by the Qin family's forces, with his eyes lowered and sitting in a high position.
On the side were Qin Cang, the head of the Qin family, and second-generation figures such as Qin Haonan and Qin Leixiao who were the same generation as the deceased Qin Yuqing.
The five major sects also sent people from each of them.
The strong men from the Golden Split Sect, Bamboo Forest Academy, Guanchao Pavilion, and Sand Scorpion Forest all came here. Although they were not like the five great aristocratic families who dispatched the ancestors of the gods in the sects, they all had masters of the virtual appearance.
Gangs such as the Black Flood Dragon Gang and the Beggar Gang, which were originally three gangs and became two gangs, also sent experts, and the leaders of the Black Flood Dragon Gang and the Beggar Gang also appeared.
Although the coercion of the gods has been restrained, the dissipation and collision between them also formed a terrifying aura that was suffocating.
Li Che arrived at the venue with Xixi in his arms. The open space under the wooden platform was already densely packed with people.
Suddenly, Lu Chi's big head popped up from the crowd. Today he was wearing the clothes of an inner disciple of the Shen Sect. The green clothes were quite conspicuous, causing many people to subconsciously give way.
"Uncle Li, Aunt Zhang, and Xixi, come this way, follow me."
Lu Chi waved excitedly.
Li Che knew that there was special treatment, but he didn't care about the eyes of the people around him. He put on a gentle smile and used his hidden energy to sway away from the crowd, taking his wife, daughter, Granny Mu, uncle's family and Lao Chen. Followed Lu Chi.
As soon as he followed Lu Chi, Shangguan Qinghong jumped up and down in the distance, angrily saying: "Brother Li, I am here, and there is a good place here!"
Liu He and Hai Chuanying on the side couldn't help laughing: "I didn't expect Brother Li to have someone in Shenzong."
"That is Lu Chi, Li Qingshan's disciple. He was one of the three people who resonated with the temple gods last time. The resonance level was as high as 65%. He is the one among the three who still insists on practicing the [Wrathful Third Prince] divine law. Yang San The prince’s divine nature wants to create the divine base of the Sixth Prince [The Angry Third Prince] and learn from his teacher.”
Hai Chuanying came from the Hai family, one of the five great aristocratic families, and was very knowledgeable, so he introduced.
"Brother Li's daughter seems to be one of the three top soul boys in the thirteen cities under the jurisdiction of Fucheng, right?" Liu He thought of something and couldn't help but say.
"Yes, Li Nuanxi, the best spiritual child...but there is not much hope for the true inheritance. It is probably necessary to enter the inner gate first, and then slowly attack the true inheritance. She is really too young."
"The five major aristocratic families, as well as many small and medium-sized families in the city, have all brought out their hidden soul boys. I heard that there are more than fifteen top-quality soul boys this year, but the Shenzong True Tradition only accepts five."
Hai Chuanying said calmly.
Liu He sighed and shook his head: "It's not easy. After what happened to Feilei City, Brother Li can still bring the daughter of a top-notch soul boy to Fucheng. He has suffered too much..."
"It's not bad to be able to enter the inner sect of the Shen Sect."
Shangguan Qinghong suddenly became unhappy when he heard this and clenched his fists: "My sister Xixi will definitely become a true successor. You have no idea how powerful Xixi is!"
Hai Chuanying sneered: "How powerful can a three-year-old kid be when he can't even pee?"
"The top soul boy of my Hai family, Hai Chaosheng, has a divine appearance, and the ancestor took it out as if it were a piece of flesh. If it weren't for the resonance of the temple god of the third prince's weird temple, the ancestor would really have to continue to hide it and teach him personally."
Shangguan Qinghong glanced at Hai Chuanying, you have no idea how valuable a three-year-old bone-tempering achievement is.
She didn't yell in advance, she'll wait for Xiaoxiao...
Wait to be shocked by Emperor Xixi!
…
…
On the bluestone steps under the stone archway of Shenzong Mountain Gate.
There were chairs arranged one after another, and figures with fluttering robes and robes of clothes were sitting there. The immortal wind and bones seemed to blend into the spring breeze. The drizzle poured down, and before it fell on their bodies, they were distorted by the invisible energy.
"This session is really lively...there are so many people coming. I'm afraid all the talented soul boys in Jinguang Mansion have been brought here, right?"
The old man sitting at the main seat, with white hair and beard, gently stroking his hand, looked gently at the dense crowd.
This person is the sect leader of the Yunzhou branch of the Qianyuan Shen Sect. He is Nan Lihuo and his cultivation is unfathomable.
"It will naturally be lively. After all... the Temple of the Three Princes has opened the Temple God Resonance this time. I am afraid it will not be opened again for another twenty years. If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to get the opportunity in the next twenty years." The inheritance of the Three Princes Temple."
Li Qingshan sat lazily on the chair and said.
"Li Qingshan, you are so ruthless. As soon as you returned to Fucheng, you used a hammer to force out an Eight-ji Corpse God Envoy from the Corpse God Cult, which almost caused a catastrophe!"
As soon as Li Qingshan finished speaking, a frail old man dressed as a Confucian scholar not far away suddenly started shouting.
Li Qingshan was immediately dissatisfied: "What does it mean to cause a catastrophe? Don't you know who the Corpse God Envoys of the Corpse God Religion are? You allow them to lobby and corrupt all forces in the city..."
"This is a big disaster!"
"Don't you know what's going on in Jeju? They've all become ghosts of the Corpse God Cult! The people have become tools for the Corpse God Cult to refine their dead energy, and they are dying in droves... Do you think Jinguang Mansion has also fallen into this state? ?"
The face of the old Confucian scholar turned red: "Of course we have to stop the Corpse God Sect, but we need to pay attention to the strategy. You are so upright in hunting down the Corpse God envoys in the city. The Chief of Staff, Jian Zheng, the Sect Master and I are all helpless in the treacherous barrier. Return..."
"If the other party breaks the pot and doesn't choose to escape, but directly massacres the people on a large scale...how many people will die?"
Li Qingshan raised his eyelids slightly: "That's the incompetence of the people left behind in the city."
A woman in red robe opened her eyes in the distance, with flames dancing in her eyes and a faint tone.
"Li Qingshan, are you saying that I Zhu Hongdou is incompetent?"
Li Qingshan immediately shut his mouth.
This woman has been watching [The Wrathful Third Prince of the Eight-Armed Hell Lotus] all his life. She is a ruthless woman. It can be seen that she is very persistent and holds grudges. It would be better for him to say less.
The leader of the sect, Nan Lihuo, raised his hand gently and pressed it: "Okay, the Corpse God Cult and other villains must be eliminated as soon as they are found. What Qingshan did was the right thing to do."
"It's just that the method is quite drastic. I'll just be more steady in the future."
"Elder Zhang, you are a Jinshi of the current dynasty, so you are suitable to be the supervisor of this sect's examination. You should be steady and set an example for the younger students, and don't frighten the kids with your bad face all the time."
The old man who looked like a Confucian scholar was Zhang Qingzheng, one of the four divine elders of the Shen Sect. He clasped his fists and said yes. After sitting on the chair, he rubbed his lotus-like face and tried to smile.
Unfortunately, it’s getting scarier.
Li Qingshan caught a glimpse and almost laughed out loud.
"The time has come, we are ready to open the mountain gate and conduct the sect entrance examination."
Sect leader Nan Lihuo glanced at Li Qingshan solemnly, causing Li Qingshan to suppress a smile.
"Dang-!"
Zhu Hongdou, the elder in red, stood up and walked to the huge black gong standing on the archway behind him. He grasped the drumstick and knocked it down gently.
In an instant, the bullet vibrated with force, vibrating the black gong and making a thunderous sound!
The sound was like ripples, setting off a strong wind, spreading across the entire place in an instant, causing the entire place to become silent for an instant.
"The Yunzhou branch of the Qianyuan Divine Sect of Lingnan Dao, the disciples of the sect are assessed and selected."
"start!"
…
…
It is drizzling and the spring breeze is blowing.
In front of the Shenzong Mountain Gate, a huge black gong was sounded, and the sound was like the rushing water of the Jiulong River, rolling in all directions, causing the parents and children surrounding the circle to fall silent.
The black gong rang three times, and the voice of the stunningly beautiful woman in red rang out to every corner. The voice could be heard clearly even though it was hundreds of feet away.
Li Che held Xixi in his arms and sat on the prepared position on the lower left side of the wooden platform built in front of the Shenzong Mountain Gate.
There were several wooden chairs placed here, and Li Che and his party, led by Lu Chi, happened to occupy the seats. In addition to Li Che's family, there were several figures dressed in Chinese clothes, holding children in their arms, and sitting quietly on chairs.
When Li Che's family appeared, the eyes of those people glanced over. Several women in gorgeous and luxurious clothes couldn't help frowning when they saw Zhang Ya, who was wearing simple clothes.
Judging from their attire, Li Che's family is obviously not of high status.
What level is it to sit with them?
Li Che is very low-key, and few people in the city know about him. Most of them know that this person is a wood carver who came back to life from Feilei City who was sacrificed.
Even the fact that Li Che joined Qintian Prison as a third-class guest minister, very few people knew about it.
However, Li Che and his party were brought by Lu Chi. Although these people in fine clothes were dissatisfied, they still endured it and did not make any provocation.
Li Che was aware of the gazes around him, but he didn't care.
"Uncle Li, this position was specially reserved for you by the teacher. These people dressed in gorgeous clothes are from the aristocratic families of the thirteen houses under Fucheng. The two top soul boys are also among them."
Lu Chi came close to Li Che and whispered.
Li Che hugged Xixi and found a seat to sit down, his eyebrows couldn't help but he was that... the top soul boy who was rated higher than Xixi in Li Qingshan's mouth?
"Huang Sixiang?"
Li Che spoke softly.
Lu Chi immediately pointed at the little boy who was about three or four positions away.
The little boy followed a beautiful woman with an excellent figure. He was very well-behaved, with a rare short haircut, and his skin was bronze. Although he was only five or six years old, he exuded a restrained and fierce temperament.
As if aware of Li Che's gaze, Huang Sixiang turned his head and his eyes instantly fell on Xixi. Seeing the appearance of Xixi's pink three-year-old kid, he immediately raised his chin in disdain and broke his voice. Open your eyes.
"A little three-year-old is nothing to worry about."
Huang Sixiang immediately made a judgment in his mind.
Xixi felt that she was being despised and was immediately annoyed: "Dad, he is looking at me!"
Li Che rubbed the little girl's head: "I'll beat you back later. Have you learned everything daddy taught you?"
"I've learned it! I can throw the kitten away now." Xixi said proudly, clenching her fists and blinking her big watery eyes.
Lu Chi on the side was confused, what kind of kitten?
During this period, what did Xixi learn behind his back?
"That one is from Thirteen Cities. Besides Xixi and Huang Sixiang, there is another top-notch soul boy. He is a genius from the Liu family in East Ring City, Liu Changqing. The teacher's evaluation is that he is not as good as Xixi."
Li Che nodded after hearing this.
"How old are they?"
"Huang Sixiang is six years old and Liu Changqing is seven years old."
Lü Chi revealed everything from his family's treasures.
The two talked for a while and then became quiet, because on the high platform, a woman in a fiery red dress slowly walked to the edge of the wooden platform, holding a list in her hand, which was the soul children selected from various cities in various places. The name.
"This person is Elder Hongdou, one of the four elders of the sect. He looks like an old monster!" Lu Chi tilted his head and introduced to Xixi and Li Che.
However, as soon as Lu Chi finished speaking, Zhu Hongdou's sharp eyes swept over and landed on him.
"You are talking nonsense. This elder is incredibly beautiful. He is as beautiful as a flower. Don't talk nonsense." Li Che patted Lu Chi's big head and said solemnly.
For the sake of my daughter, I praise my subordinates without conscience, and I am not shabby.
Lu Chi also felt murderous intent, and realized later that he seemed to have said the wrong thing.
"Now, the soul boy whose name has been read comes to the stage."
Zhu Hongdou seemed to have heard Li Che's unconscionable compliment and curled her lips disdainfully, but she had to say that nice words are pleasant to the ears.
"Elephants ring the city, the best soul boy, the four yellow elephants!"
The words fell.
Huang Sixiang, who was sitting obediently next to the proud and beautiful woman, suddenly stood up and raised his head. His bronze skin seemed to be oiled in the spring rain.
He held his head high and walked forward proudly as the first person whose name was read to him.
He, Huang Sixiang, will always be number one.
"Flying Thunder City, the best soul boy, Li Nuanxi."
Zhu Hongdou looked at the roster and read again.
"Dad, you seem to have called me." Xixi said excitedly.
Li Che put her down and smoothed the wrinkles on her little practice clothes, saying with gentleness and encouragement: "Go, daddy will cheer you up!"
He patted Xixi and then inserted two [Chess Saint] chess pieces to ensure safety.
Xixi nodded and immediately ran towards the wooden platform.
Three-year-old Xixi, a tiny one, stands next to Huang Sixiang on the wooden platform, much shorter.
There was an uproar from below, and there were even a lot of smiles.
"A three-year-old top-notch soul boy with great talent, but unfortunately... he's too young."
"There is not much advantage in taking the assessment if you are too young. You should train for another year. It is safer to take the test at the age of four."
"You're from Feilei City. That's okay. I heard that Feilei City was bewitched by demons from the Corpse God Cult and held a Thousand Infants Festival. Many soul boys died unexpectedly. It's not easy for this baby to come to Fucheng alive..."
…
The sound of conversation below was endless.
However, it is difficult for a three-year-old top-notch soul boy to become a true disciple competitor. He will probably become an inner disciple and be trained for a year, and then see if he can be favored by the elders and promoted to a true disciple.
Zhu Hongdou glanced at Xixi with interest, and then continued to read the name.
"Donghuan City, the best soul boy, Liu Changqing."
"Qin family, Qin Fenghuo..."
Soon, a total of fifteen names were read, and fifteen children stood in line on the wooden platform.
There are boys and girls, but at a glance, they are all six or seven years old.
Xixi stood among them, just a head shorter, smaller, and her energy was completely suppressed.
Xixi didn't care. She blinked her big eyes and began to look at the boys and girls standing side by side with her. She would look at the good-looking ones one more time, and quickly looked away from the ugly ones without looking at them for a second.
But underneath, there was already a commotion.
In the first game, will the assessment of the best soul boy begin immediately?
That means that the true inheritance assessment has started directly. These fifteen top soul boys are competing for the five true inheritance positions!
The four elders, and...the sect master!
A total of five true transfer quotas!
Li Che sat in the audience, his palms clenched. I have to say... he was also a little nervous.
Even though he already knew it and was confident in Xixi's talent and strength, he still couldn't help but feel nervous.
This is the emotional expression of an old father. He can't contain it. He looks at his daughter and stands on the stage so cutely.
Looking at the tall soul boy around him, his daughter is short and small, looking left and right, with fear in her eyes...
Li Che's heart couldn't help but tremble, and he had the urge to take his daughter away.
Zhang Ya didn't know when she grabbed Li Che's big hand, which was also covered in sweat, and her nervousness was visible to the naked eye.
"Ms. sir, can Xixi... be admitted into the true biography?"
"I heard that entering the True Inheritance is a different world from entering the Inner Sect. It would be very difficult to advance to the Inner Sect and then be promoted to the True Inheritance."
Zhang Ya was very nervous and started talking too much.
Li Che comforted him for a while.
"Don't worry, Xixi's performance will not be bad."
"After all, she is our daughter."
Beside them, Lao Chen was trembling nervously. He was more nervous than when he was trying to kill the bandits when he fled. He kept rubbing his hands and drinking the wine from the gourd.
Granny Mu couldn't tell that she was nervous, she just kept rubbing Lu Chi's big head, which made Lu Chi very speechless.
But in the face of the love and protection from his mistress, Lu Chi could only accept it with a pursed lips.
On the wooden platform.
Zhang Qingzheng, the elder in charge of presiding over this assessment, walked up to all the children with a face like a lotus.
Suddenly, the fifteen soul boys were all too angry to speak out.
Xixi almost covered her eyes, she looked so stinky.
Zhang Qingzheng stood with his hands behind his back. He felt like his face was frozen with laughter. Why didn't these little guys feel the amiability in him?
“The first test of the sect is the selection for the true inheritance.”
"The selection of the true inheritance is divided into three parts. The first part is the duel."
"There are five arenas arranged on the wooden platform. I have fifteen pieces of origami here. You can draw them and select five people to stand in the arena. The rest will attack and the winner will continue to defend."
"The last person standing on the ring will be the winner of the first round of the true inheritance assessment."
"The second stage is to test the divine talent, use the Shenzong Wangxin Technique to look forward, and score based on the height of the divine purple energy."
"Divided into three grades: upper A, A, and lower A."
"As for the third link, let's wait until the first two links are over."
Zhang Qingzheng's eyebrows drooped, like the whiskers of bitter coptis.
He looked at the fifteen top soul boys on the stage and smiled.
The fifteen soul boys were frightened by Zhang Qingzheng's stinky face, and they all hurriedly stood upright and shouted "Know".
Then Zhang Qingzheng suddenly threw out the fifteen pieces of origami paper in his hand.
Invisible energy surged, and the fifteen origami sheets seemed to be shrouded in invisible transparent balls, flying around in them.
"Everyone draws one card. After opening it, he can know whether he is the defender or the attacker."
Zhang Qingzheng said.
Xixi looked curiously at the flurry of origami floating in front of her, stretched out her chubby little hand, and grabbed one.
The turbulent airflow hit the flesh of her arms, making them tremble wildly, making her feel itchy and comfortable.
After taking out the origami, Xixi opened it out of curiosity.
Then his eyes were blank, because there was a word written on it that Xixi could not recognize.
He glanced over, raised his eyes and eyebrows slightly, and shook his head imperceptibly.
When a three-year-old soul boy becomes the guardian, he will inevitably be regarded as a soft persimmon and become the target of many soul boys competing to attack him.
It's a pity that the rules of true inheritance assessment are like this...
If you dare to fight for the truth at the age of three, you have to show some skills.
With a face as straight as a bitter lotus, his Confucian shirt flying, he spoke in a deep voice.
"The defenders in the first round are Huang Sixiang, Qin Fenghuo, Hai Chaosheng, Gong Yangxiu..."
"Li Nuanxi."
