Xia Chen took the Vitality Pill, put it in his arms, and then slapped his face gently: "I guess you must be regretting it now, because you can get a bottle of Vitality Pill, and you only need to pay a few words.
The price is because we just want to find out some information. This bottle of Vitality Pill is equivalent to your extra income for several months. Unfortunately, because of your greed, not only did you get nothing, but you also had to pay the price with your life."
The guy's face turned red and white for a while, and Xia Chen's hand seemed gentle, but in fact it was painful when it hit his face, and the pain was accompanied by huge humiliation, which made him feel ashamed.
But when he heard Xia Chen's last words, the man finally couldn't hold back the panic in his heart anymore. He burst into tears and kowtowed with all his strength: "My lord, my lord, please forgive me.
I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, please spare my life, even if you chop off one of my arms or one of my legs, don’t kill me..."
He kowtowed loudly and forcefully, fearing that Xia Chen would directly kill him in the next moment, and blood trickled down his forehead.
"Get up." Xia Chen said with a frown. If he really let this guy knock him to death, there would really be nothing he could do to deal with it.
"Yes, yes, sir, please..." The boy was in shock and got up trembling, without any arrogance at all.
"Let me ask you." Xia Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Do you know the news about the selection of potential disciples by the Yanzhao Alliance?"
"You know, I know." The waiter finally found some sense of presence and nodded hurriedly. "Our restaurant mainly serves practitioners. There were many passers-by in the past few days, and all the talk was about the selection of the Yanzhao Alliance, which made it a fuss.
Yes, I heard a lot of inside information, I don’t know what you want to ask.”
Xia Chen and the five of them exchanged glances, and they all thought that they had found the right person. It would be good to scare this guy, and save them the trouble of going to other places to find out the information.
"We are from out of town and don't know much about the overall situation of the alliances participating in the election. Please introduce what you know - why does the alliance select disciples? What is the competition system for the selection? The most important thing is that you will participate in the selection of practitioners from other countries.
Please tell me about the situation in detail." Xia Chen said.
A foreign place? It seems to be a small and remote country. No wonder when I entered the city and looked around, I thought it was a group of country bumpkins who were easy to fool. Who would have thought that these people are pretending to be pigs and eating tigers, so fierce... The guy thought bitterly, just beat him to death now.
I don’t even dare to call a few people bumpkins.
He quickly said: "Several adults, regarding the reason for the selection of the Yanzhao Alliance, the official statement is to cultivate a group of outstanding practitioners to become loyal middlemen of the alliance, but according to the villain, this is not exactly what happened. Of course,
There are various reasons for speculation. However, the most popular theory is that the alliance elders are drawn from various sects and are purely for their own interests. This has led to fierce internal factional struggles and serious internal strife. Therefore, the alliance urgently needs a group of fresh people.
Strength will come in to gradually ease the conflicts until the alliance is completely handed over to them."
A few people nodded. This statement does have some truth. If the internal friction of the alliance is serious, it will easily fall apart. If new blood is brought in, it will indeed be easy to dilute the contradictions.
Xia Chen was stunned. What this guy said was almost exactly the same as what he, Chen Qiushui and others had analyzed before. Although they were just speculations, since it was so popular, it was probably not groundless.
"Go on," Xia Chen said.
"Yes, sir." The clerk looked at him cautiously and said, "About the arrangements for the alliance's selection system, that is a secret. Naturally, I will not know about it. However, I have heard a few words. I heard that the alliance's senior officials are also very interested in it this time.
In the selection, the competition system is very arranged
Strictly speaking, it is roughly divided into three games. As for what each competition is about, I don’t know. However, Yongqing is not the center of the Yanzhao region. These adults must be outstanding disciples who participated in the selection. If they go to Jin’an City, they must
I can get more information."
He was not stupid. Seeing Xia Chen and others inquiring about the alliance selection, he guessed that these people were the disciples participating in the alliance selection.
Who are the disciples who can participate in the alliance selection? The weakest is also the tenth level of acquired life. Such people, even in the cultivator restaurant, may not be easily offended even by the boss. I am really blind, and I blackmailed them. Seriously
Don't die.
"Three games?" The five people were startled. They originally thought that the alliance selection was simply a competition of cultivation. Now it seems that this is not the case. It is much more responsible than imagined.
"Approximately how many practitioners can participate in the alliance selection?" Xu Yunxuan asked.
"I don't know the exact number." The clerk thought for a while and said, "But there must be 10,000 people."
Ten thousand people! This number was like thunder falling, causing the five people's minds to buzz.
"You mean these ten thousand people are all ten levels of acquired cultivators?" Yang Qianhui asked in surprise.
"Yes, sir, if you don't reach the tenth level of the day after tomorrow, you won't even be qualified to participate in the alliance selection." The guy said honestly.
The five people looked at each other in silence. It took a long time to calm down, and their eyes were a little dazed.
Ten thousand acquired ten-level practitioners, although it is just a number,?p>

What?
"Why are there so many people?" Ling Feifei raised her eyebrows and said angrily, "Are you lying to us? I will kill you."
"Auntie!" The waiter was so frightened that he knelt down again and said with a mournful face, "I really didn't lie. The two countries of Yan and Zhao alone are known as three thousand sects, tens of thousands of acquired ten levels, and here are ten thousand
There are so many people, not to mention disciples from second-rate and third-rate countries. Even if we exclude those who will not participate, 10,000 people is just a rough estimate."
Three thousand sects, tens of thousands of acquired ten levels!" Thunder exploded in the ears of Xia Chen and the five of them again, and they were so shocked that they were burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.
The country of Daliang is dominating thousands of miles away, and there are only seven major sects of cultivation. There are no more than fifteen disciples of the tenth level of the day after tomorrow. However, there are actually three thousand sects in Yanzhao and tens of thousands of the tenth level of the day after tomorrow. This is hundreds of times that of Daliang.
, is the difference between an elephant and a mouse.
I really don’t know, the world is so wonderful! When I arrived at the bathhouse, I realized that I was a little bird.
Although the five of them had long known that Dayan and Dazhao were the strongest in the Yan-Zhao Alliance, only now could they understand how strong these two strongest countries were. In comparison, Daliang was not worth mentioning at all.
"By the way, you just said there are second-rate and third-rate countries. What do you mean?" Xia Chen asked.
The guy glanced at him, a little strange, wondering why this man, since he could participate in the alliance selection, asked such ridiculous things that everyone knew.
In fact, he didn't know that he was right to laugh at them. Although these five guys were highly cultivated, they were indeed genuine... country bumpkins!
But the guy didn't dare to be disrespectful anymore, so he quickly explained: "Sir, it's like this. The first-rate, second-rate, and third-rate are actually used to distinguish the comprehensive national strength of the sixteen countries in the Yanzhao region. They can also be used to explain participation in the alliance.
The general strength and weakness of the selected practitioners."
"Oh?" Xia Chen raised his eyebrows with interest, "Then tell me, how do you distinguish them?"
"First-class refers to the two superpowers, Dayan and Zhao." The man said with his fingers, "The strength of any one of these two superpowers is greater than the combined strength of the other fourteen countries.
It is truly a giant, so the practitioners from both countries who are participating in the election are also part of a first-class team, and no one can compete with it except themselves."
"Yes." Xia Chen and others nodded. There is no need to say more about the strength of Dayan and Zhao. Even the entire region is named after the two great countries, which already explains everything.
"The second rate refers to the three countries of Da Qin, Da Jin, and Da Qi." The man continued, "Although the overall strength of these three countries is weaker than that of Da Yan and Da Zhao, they are much stronger than other countries.
Although there are not three thousand cultivation sects, there must be several hundred sects, and their participating practitioners belong to the second-rate team and are also very powerful."
"Oh..." Xia Chen and others nodded again, having a relatively clear understanding of the strength distribution of the Sixteen Kingdoms of Yan and Zhao.
The guy said: "As for the third-rate countries, they refer to the five countries of Da Ming, Da Zhou, Da Chen, Da Han and Da Wu. Compared with the second-rate countries such as Da Qin, the strength of Ming and other countries is naturally far inferior, but in Yanzhao
The region is also considered a backbone, and the five major countries are relatively balanced in strength. They have a lot of competition and exchanges with each other, and have produced many outstanding talents. They are considered future stars. Although the chances of participating in the alliance selection are slim, it is not impossible... This is
The origin of the first-, second-, and third-rate places in the Yanzhao area.”
When he said this, he stopped talking, obviously the introduction was finished.
"Are you done?" Xia Chen asked.
"Yes, sir." The waiter said fearfully, "That's all I know."
"But you haven't said everything yet?" Xu Yunxuan frowned and said, "You just mentioned ten countries, but the Yanzhao Alliance has sixteen countries. In addition to what you mentioned, there are Xiang Daliang, David, Dayue, and Dayue.
What about the Song Dynasty, Dafeng Dynasty, and the Six Kingdoms of Dazu? Why is there no explanation of their strength?"
"Auntie, it's like this." The clerk quickly explained, "Those who are too weak will not be assigned, because countries like Daliang and David have weak spiritual power, and even if they are added together, they are not as strong as any of the third-rate countries, so they only
Can be classified...in the ranks of the unfashionable."
When he said this, he suddenly swallowed in horror and suddenly guessed the origins of the adults in front of him. Since he didn't know these familiar secrets and had unfathomable cultivation, I'm afraid they were... unscrupulous people.
The country’s candidate for election.
This is good. I accidentally said the word "unpopular" and I'm afraid I've offended a few adults again. All the hard work of explaining just now was in vain, and my life is at risk. Thinking of this, the clerk wants to cry without tears. (To be continued.)
