Mr. Qingxi turned to look at him, and saw the latter sitting in a chair, looking at the window paper in front of him with his eyes open, as if he could see Xiao Jiu downstairs from a distance.

After a few breaths passed, I heard Xiao Jiu reply, "It's unparalleled in the world, and it's hard to find another one."

There are very few people in this world who can praise themselves so much.

Coincidentally, before Xiao Jiu, they met someone, Zhang Zhiwei from the Zhang family.

At that time, Kou Yuanzhi also asked this question because of teasing. Zhang Zhidong's answer was, "The smartest man in the world has unparalleled strategies."

Now there is another one who is unparalleled in the world. The older sages among them can't help but wonder about the younger generation. How can they be so confident?

"If you have any questions, please ask." Kou Yuanzhi said.

They asked Xiao Jiu a few questions, and it was finally Xiao Jiu's turn to ask them for advice. Whether it was academic or other aspects, everyone present was a top expert from various countries, so they should be able to give him good advice.

Xiao Jiu, however, acted very indifferently, saying, "My heart is like a bright light, and I have no doubt for a long time."

"Can't think of any?"

Kou Yuanzhi sat up straight, as if he wanted to stick it to the window paper to see where Xiao Jiu had the confidence to say this.

"none."

The one who responded to him was Xiao Jiu's words.

Kou Yuanzhi raised his eyebrows and stopped talking. A dissatisfied voice came from the other room, "What an arrogant boy, what are you doing here today?"

Xiao Jiu looked up at the skylight. In the dim building, he seemed to be standing on a green branch at the bottom of the cliff, separated from the surrounding darkness.

"I want to ask who will be immortal after thousands of years?"

"I'm here to find this immortal person."

In the empty building, only the young man's deep voice could be heard passing through the door and echoing in the building.

"Who can be immortal?" someone upstairs asked in surprise.

This was obviously not a question and no one needed to answer it, but I heard the young man smiled and said, "If there is no one else who can match you, here I am, I am the one."

"Hiss~"

Someone gasped.

First came the genius Zhang who didn't know how to answer. He was full of nonsense, and now came Xiao Jiu who was so crazy that he couldn't answer. What happened to the Qianqiu test held this time?

The people chosen are all weird people.

"Your tone is too loud. Who can be immortal after Qianqiu!"

Some people sneered. Anyway, Xiao Jiu would not be able to say this to himself.

"This is not a place for you to act wild. You can go on your own."

Another person said, "Whoever dares to use your temperament will not be allowed to climb Qiongying Terrace."

This was tantamount to declaring that Xiao Jiu was defeated in the third competition. For an ordinary person, it would have been like a bolt from the blue. Hui Bai was extremely depressed, but when he heard Xiao Jiu's chuckle coming from downstairs, he slowly raised a hand in his hand.

Cut green branches.

The emerald green branches and leaves are like bamboo branches, the leaves are green and slender, the branches and stems are slender, and the fingertips with long bones and flesh are clearly distinguishable between green and white. When the skylight falls, it seems to be embellished with silver stars, shining.

"You gentlemen are wrong."

He went on to say, "I am not the one chosen by Qiong Ying, but the one who came here for the talents on stage and chose the best."

Suddenly, everyone upstairs was startled and opened their small windows to watch quietly.

Everyone who participated in the Qianqiu Examination came here to become a talented person. Why is there still a talent selection process now?

I saw that the young man in dark blue casual clothes had turned around and walked towards the audience. His figure gradually disappeared into the darkness. Through the unclear light, everyone could vaguely see that the emerald green branches and leaves he held in his left hand were swaying as he walked away.

, gradually and completely away from the public eye.

That is a tree that selects talents, and only those who come to select talents can do this.

But what confidence did Xiao Jiu have to act like this? He thought they were both talented people, so who would be willing to serve him as the master and be subordinate to him?

Xiao Jiu walked out of the Four Directions Hall, and the next person who came in happened to be Gongsun Sheng.

The two passed by each other, and Gongsun Sheng could not tell whether Xiao Jiu's expression was victory or defeat, but the moment he entered the door, he looked sideways at the Qianqiu Examination bulletin board at the door.

An attendant was taking down the wooden plaque with Xiao Jiu's name written on it.

Knowing what he was doing, Gongsun Sheng walked into the pavilion.

"Young Master of the Gongsun clan, Gongsun Sheng, I sincerely ask all the sages to give me some advice."

The high-spirited young man walked into the stage with his head held high. The surroundings were deserted, and no one's voice was heard, but there seemed to be whispers in the dark.

"Young Master Gongsun? Is he the one who has been born extraordinary since childhood?"

"That should be the case. He is the only direct descendant of the Gongsun family."

…

Gongsun Sheng stood in front of the stage without saying a word, his sharp face was gleaming with a pair of tiger eyes. Those who can reach this level are all geniuses, so what if they are proud?

He also has the capital to be proud!

In the void, someone asked him a question.

"What is a hero?"

Gongsun Sheng replied confidently, "Having the ability to help the world, being wise and courageous, doing things that others dare not do, and having the courage to be invincible to thousands of others! He who ranks high among tens of millions of people is called a hero!"

This is Gongsun Sheng's understanding of this term. His superiority since childhood made him accustomed to being on top of others and he never knew how to bow his head.

He also cannot learn to bow to anyone.

More than ten million people?!

This requires an extraordinary position of power.

Someone was discussing in a low voice in a small room upstairs.

After a while, someone else asked again.

"You want to be a hero?"

"Of course. When a man is born in this world, if he doesn't want to be a hero, why should he be a bear?" Gongsun Sheng smiled freely and confidently.

“Who in the world today can be called a hero?”

Gongsun Sheng was silent for a while. He was deep in thought and compared the names of several influential figures in the world in his mind, but none of them made him want to reveal his name.

Gongsun Sheng said, "Nothing!"

This answer made several people upstairs fall silent. From this tone, which was very similar to the previous question about Xiao Jiu, they felt inexplicably familiar.

Someone deliberately asked tentatively, "What about you? You want to be a hero. Do you think you can be called a hero?"

Gongsun Sheng paused for a second, and then answered seriously, "In less than ten years, everyone in the five countries of the world will praise my name Gongsun Sheng! By then, I can be called a hero."

…

In the familiar silence, several people upstairs were speechless again.

Young people are really high-spirited, confident and proud.

Today was the third one they encountered.

"You, this disciple, will be extraordinary in the future."

This is the first time Mr. Qingxi has seen a disciple whom his old friend described as being like a half-master. He has outstanding talent and pride, and is truly extraordinary.

He stroked his long beard frequently.

Kou Yuanzhi, however, was not very happy and replied with an unclear meaning, "Your little disciple is no less generous."

"He looks down upon all the princes in the world. Those who can be called heroes have been few since ancient times but have not been called kings and hegemons. Gongsun Sheng may be like this." Mr. Qingxi added.

Do you still want him to tell him this?

Kou Yuanzhi already knew that half of his disciples would indeed be extraordinary in the future, but would Qi Ningyuan's little disciple be ordinary?

He said, "Didn't you say at the beginning that your little disciple promised to worship you as his teacher? Do you think it will be fulfilled one day?"

Mr. Qingxi stopped stroking his beard, then lowered his eyelids and said, "He is used to telling lies. He has lied to me quite a few times."

"Hahahaha," Kou Yuan said happily, "Oh, no, no, no, who knows what will happen in the future."

"It's better to just wait and see. Everything will come to light."

An old friend once asked him what kind of person he thought Xiao Jiu was. Now, Kou Yuanzhi can't fully see clearly, but he may also be a person in the future.

"Where are you going, and how will you go about it?"

It was rare for Mr. Qingxi to open his mouth. Xiao Jiu was his disciple before, and Xiao Jiu's shocking words made him embarrassed to say anything, for fear that others would know that he was his disciple.

Now it was the turn of half of Kou Yuanzhi's disciples to take the exam, and of course he had to ask him a question.

Whoever thought this question made Gongsun Sheng stunned. There was a silence in the empty darkness around him, as if he was the only one in the world.

Gongsun Sheng stood there blankly, lost in thought. His mind was empty and he didn't know how to answer.
