C250 The Selection Begins
The selection begins.
Two rows of brightly armored Imperial Army soldiers stood in front of the majestic 'Yellow' Gate of the Imperial Palace. Their bodies were emitting powerful and majestic aura, making it so that no one would dare to act rashly here.
Even those geniuses from all over the world who had come to participate in the selection of the Damo Academy were advancing cautiously under such an imposing aura, as they were afraid that they would cause trouble.
Of course, there was also a group of young geniuses who were proud of themselves. They were extremely arrogant, and they didn't put the Forbidden Guard in their eyes at all.
There was even a young man who dared to make a racket here. He was thrown out by an Imperial Guard Junior Commander and stripped of his qualification to participate in the competition.
An important place in the Imperial Palace. This was the second time Qin Xiao had come here. It was just that the first time he had come was on Gu Lingyue's phoenix carriage, so he didn't see the situation outside at all. This time, he was walking over. He could deeply feel the grandeur of the Imperial Palace. It was filled with ancient aura.
The entire Imperial Palace was like an ancient God Beast that had been sleeping for a long time.
Even though it had already fallen asleep, the aura it emitted was still majestic and ancient.
It was said that this majestic imperial palace had existed for at least three thousand years. It had been through two dynasties, but it still stood tall here.
"This is the palace. It's so grand. Compared to this, the County Prince's Mansion in Liufeng County is like a small cottage." Mangqi praised and sighed. Bai Jianqiu also nodded his head in agreement.
Looking at the bustling and orderly rows of geniuses entering the city, one could imagine how intense the competition this time would be.
Under the lead of the Imperial Army, all the participating geniuses quickly arrived at a huge square. Around the square, scanning the surroundings... There were more than a thousand of them. This was the Imperial Army! Every single one of them was a Bone Exchange Stage warrior! There were even many of them, including Junior Commander, who was a Martial Force Stage warrior.
With so many Imperial Guards surrounding the huge square, it formed an impregnable wall. The dense aura made everyone feel very uncomfortable.
At the bottom of the square, there were hundreds of steps. At the top of the staircase, there was a viewing platform. At this moment, on the spectator stand... There were also many chairs, and many chairs were filled with people who were emitting powerful aura. These people... However, whether it was the civil servants or generals... The aura emitted from their bodies was extremely powerful.
In fact, Bone Exchange Stage warriors were basically invisible, and they were usually at the Martial Force Stage. Furthermore, Qin Xiao had also discovered a few aura that weren't any weaker than Gu Lingyue's aura. They were definitely at the Good Magic Stage.
It could be seen from this that the foundation of the Great Desert Empire was indeed very shocking.
Bai Jianqiu also softly said, "Tsk tsk, there are more than a hundred people on the viewing platform. Basically, they are all Martial Force Stage experts, suspected to be Good Magic Stage experts. I think there are more than ten of them. I estimate that only a small number of people are here to watch the battle. The foundation of our Damo Kingdom... It's really scary. I have never seen a Good Magic Stage before."
"It's said that a Good Magic Stage can easily kill us with just a thought. He can kill people tens of thousands of meters away, and he possesses incredible abilities."
Qin Xiao nodded his head. "That's true. The strength of a Good Magic Stage is beyond our imagination for the time being."
"Eh? Mr. Wan!" Qin Xiao's eyes moved, and soon, he saw a familiar figure on the spectating platform. It was none other than Fa Yi.
Wanfa Yi also noticed Qin Xiao. He nodded at Qin Xiao with a smile.
After Qin Xiao returned to the inn from the Imperial Palace, he made some preparations and immediately came to participate in the selection. As such, he didn't have the time to look for Mr. Wan.
On the spectating platform, a middle-aged man in his early forties with a green robe draped over his shoulders, who was standing beside Wanfa Yi, swept his gaze across the crowd. Qin Xiao said, "Wan Fa Yi. This is the kid you told me last time that you want to absorb into our Myriad Formation Palace, Qin Xiao?"
"Yes, great Deacon." Wan Fa nodded his head.
However, the Great Deacon snorted and said, "Not many people refuse the invitation of the Myriad Formation Palace. This kid... He is too ambitious. He is obviously talented in formations. He was probably going down the wrong path. I think this time... He's going to lose. Although he could barely become the Saint Son of Damo Academy, he would still be able to become two direct disciples. He had no fate. The chance to enter the Myriad Formation Palace is not something that can be found anytime."
Wan Fa didn't dare to say anything about the Great Deacon's displeasure.
More and more people arrived at the square. Soon, the number of people had exceeded eight hundred. It seemed like they were going for a thousand people.
However, there might be some people who were trying to fish in troubled waters.
A true young genius of a county would probably only be able to kill five of them at most. There were more than a hundred counties in Damo Kingdom added up. Under normal circumstances, there were some nobles. If there were six or seven hundred of them, it would be considered normal. Even if it was special this time... It also attracted many geniuses from the surrounding countries. Eight hundred of them. That should be about it.
If there were more, he reckoned that there would be some people who would take advantage of the situation to take advantage of the situation.
"Look over there." Bai Jianqiu suddenly patted Qin Xiao's shoulder. Qin Xiao looked over and saw Young Master Liangyu walking over under the escort of four well-dressed young men. He looked very spirited.
Young Master Liangyu was the grandson of a good king. How prestigious was his status? He was also one of the eighteen young masters of the Imperial City. Therefore, in the Imperial City... Naturally, he had a great reputation. When Young Master Liangyu arrived, the crowd automatically opened up a path for him. When Young Master Liangyu walked past Qin Xiao, he stopped and his lips curled into a disdainful and playful smile. He smiled coldly and said, "Kid, you really have a lot of guts. You actually dare to stay in the Imperial City. However, your little life won't last for long. "
After saying that, Young Master Liangyu continued walking forward, and soon, he arrived in front of the stairs and stood at the front.
When he stood there, it was like a bright star.
His light was enough to make the people around him dim.
Qin Xiao just smiled lightly. He didn't care about what Young Master Liangyu said.
It was only a matter of time before the score was settled.
Many people started to point fingers at Qin Xiao. Those who knew the situation started to talk about the cause of the conflict between Qin Xiao and Young Master Liangyu. Those who offended Young Master Liangyu would never have a good ending.
This caused Qin Xiao and the other three to be surrounded by no one else. It was as if the God of Plagues had been disdained by everyone.
"Looks like Young Master Liangyu's reputation is really not ordinary." Bai Jianqiu curled his lips and said.
Qin Xiao casually smiled. "Of course it's big. Liang King's direct grandson has the potential to become Liang King's future grandson. Of course it's big."
"That's why you will have a lot of trouble in the future." Bai Jianqiu shook his head and frowned. He was still somewhat worried about Qin Xiao.
However, Qin Xiao did not care. He said, "My troubles... It had never been small. Perhaps, this is the motivation that has been pushing me forward all this time. When I'm strong, I'm strong. With pressure, it might not be a bad thing. What if I say that I won't harm Young Master Liangyu and he will become my assistant on my way forward? He will just be a small stumbling block. He won't be able to stop me from moving forward."
" I've never liked trouble, but I've never been afraid of trouble. "
"Storm Valley is coming. You can't stop it. The only thing you can do is to welcome it and open up a new world in the storm."
"Well said!" Bai Jianqiu and the other two couldn't help but praise.
The three of them really admired Qin Xiao's temperament.
It was indeed a rare thing to have such a firm heart at this moment.
It was no wonder. In just a short period of more than a year, however, Qin Xiao had already surpassed their six or seven years of hard work. Qin Xiao's success was not unexpected.
"Look, Princess Lingloong is here!"
"Wow, she is Princess Lingloong. I have long heard of her name, but I did not see her. She is really young! She must have just turned sixteen, right?"
"That's right. We are already over twenty years old. We are ashamed and ashamed."
"Tsk tsk. Princess Lingloong is so cute and beautiful."
"I wonder who will be lucky enough to marry Princess Lingloong and become the son-in-law in the future?"
"I heard that among the eighteen young masters in the Imperial City, there are a few who compete for Princess Lingloong, and the one with the most momentum should be Young Master Liangyu. I feel that Young Master Liangyu and Princess Lingloong are quite compatible. "
"Yeah, I think so too. In the past, the princess's consort was usually a noble general family."
"Hey, look, why is Princess Lingloong walking over there?"
Gu Lingyue walked over to Qin Xiao alone, which naturally caused many people to be surprised.
"Hehe, I have something for you." A delicate Xiaoyu bottle appeared in Gu Lingyue's hand. It was very small and was not even a finger long.
Qin Xiao took the small bottle and asked in confusion, "What is this?"
Gu Lingyue said, "Nothing much. It is just a little thing. There is a kind of flower dew inside. It is very delicious. I really like to drink it. I brought a little bit today when I came out. I'll give you a taste of it. Quickly drink it and have a look. "2
Flower dew?
Delicious?
Qin Xiao couldn't help but want to laugh. This little girl was indeed a little girl.
Qin Xiao opened Xiaoyu's bottle and a refreshing fragrance immediately entered his nose. He only took a slight whiff and it immediately made Qin Xiao feel as if his soul was being nourished. It was too comfortable.
It was so fragrant. This kind of fragrance was too good to smell. One only needed to take a small whiff and it would make one feel unable to extricate themselves.
What exactly was this thing?
Qin Xiao put Xiaoyu's bottle to the side of his mouth and poured it down. The amount inside was very little. Not to mention just one mouthful, Qin Xiao felt that there were only a few drops. Even his tongue could not be completely wet.
But once the thing entered his mouth, a pure force entered his body. This feeling was like returning to his mother's amniotic fluid. It was too comfortable.
His spirit also instantly became much better.
It even ignited the fighting spirit in Qin Xiao's body.
What a good thing!
Gu Lingyue's attack was indeed extraordinary.
"Thank you!" Qin Xiao said with a smile.
Gu Lingyue smiled happily. "Why are you so polite? Do a good job later. I am looking forward to your performance."
"Yes, I will try my best." Qin Xiao nodded.
Facing Gu Lingyue who had mastered five of the Five Elemental Profound Meanings, Qin Xiao still felt a lot of pressure. He was afraid that one of the two spots for direct disciples was prepared for Gu Lingyue.
It even made Qin Xiao feel that King of Damo said that there were two spots for direct disciples this time. Could it be that the candidate had already been decided?
