However, for Yang Ji, his feelings are different, and his feelings are deeper.≥,
In this solemn and solemn atmosphere, in addition to the atmosphere of the Hundred Saints, Yang Ji felt a trace of remoteness and vastness, which ran through countless civilizations, eras, and the long river of time.
The Martial Palace is the Wen Palace first, and then the Martial Palace!
A long time ago, there used to be a lot of people here. Those who came here like pilgrims to take exams were not warriors, but endless students and literati.
The test of the flourishing age of literature and art is the longevity of spirit. There used to be countless literary champions, literary scholars, literary scholars, literary scholars, literary doctors, literary students..., and the loud sound of reading resounded through the sky.
However, after a long period of time, literary education declined, and all of this became just a legend. In this era, let alone Wen Zhuangyuan, Wen Jinshi, and even Wen Juren were gone.
Only Wen Tongsheng and Wen Xiucai were not valued at the literary level.
And the Wen Palace was transformed into the Martial Palace, and endless warriors shuttled around the former site! No one except Yang Ji could imagine the glory and prosperity of the past, and no one would pay attention to it.
Yang Ji sighed, took out his martial arts examination token, and walked towards the main hall proudly under the strange eyes of the inspecting general.
"Senior brother," a familiar voice came from my ears.
Yang Ji's heart moved, and he suddenly came back to his senses. He looked intently and saw a familiar figure standing at the door, waving to him excitedly.
"Zi Shi? Why are you here?"
Yang Ji walked over with a look of surprise on his face.
"Haha, although I feel that there is no hope for this year's martial arts examination, I did not participate. However, I still have to come to cheer for my senior brother."
Ouyang Zushi had a smile on his face. It was obvious that he had already understood that Yang Ji was taking the martial arts examination on his first day today.
"Oh, have things in the clan been settled?"
Yang Ji patted his shoulder and smiled.
"Well, I need help from my senior brother for all this."
Ouyang Zi's face was full of energy.
Yang Ji smiled and said nothing. His eyes were discerning. When he first saw him, he felt that he was fundamentally different from usual. He had obviously broken through to the realm of a military commander.
With such a level of cultivation, coupled with the set of moves he designed for him, it was enough for him to deal with Ouyang Hengqiu and establish his status in the clan.
"Let's go. The martial arts examination is about to begin."
Yang Jidao, without saying much, pulled Ouyang Zushi and walked inside.
While walking, I listened to Ouyang Zishi talking about his situation in the clan. As Yang Ji knew, after breaking through to the general level, Ouyang Zishi's status in the clan has been fundamentally different.
Coupled with the help of Ouyang Zifu and the third wife, the situation of mother and son in the house is really like a fish in water. They are so happy and prosperous, which is completely different from before.
As I was walking, I suddenly heard a lively discussion:
"Who do you think will come first in this year's martial arts examination?"
"Chen Bo! It must be Chen Bo!"
"That's right, Chen Bo has been winning for five days in a row, and no one has been able to defeat him. This time the martial arts examination must be his Wu Jieyuan!"
"I feel so too!"
"I think so!"
…
These people seemed to be familiar with each other. They were standing in a circle with each other and discussing enthusiastically. Their voices were high-pitched, their faces were red, and they were extremely excited. Even there were a few who objected, but they were all drowned out by the voices of approval.
Everyone seems to have great respect for this Chen Bo.
"Who is Chen Bo?"
Yang Ji was a little surprised and turned to look at Ouyang Zishi next to him. It was normal for him to have his favorite contestants in the martial arts examination. Warriors all respect the strong.
However, everyone has their favorite players. In a martial arts examination, many "stars" will appear. It is normal for many people to like them. But few people like these people unanimously praise a certain player.
This is either because they have some relationship with this player, such as coming from the same place, or because this candidate is exceptionally strong.
But he had heard of the number one Wu scholar in each county this year, but he had never heard of this unfamiliar name.
"Haha. He is from Lantian County. He is not the number one martial artist in Lantian County, but his strength has risen rapidly. In their county, even their number one martial artist is afraid of him. I have heard a rumor,
It is said that recently, when people from Lantian County went out to have a drink together, Wu Xiucai from their county would first pour him wine before he dared to sit down."
Ouyang Zizhi said. Although he did not participate in the martial arts examination, the strength of the Ouyang family is there. The Ouyang family's intelligence gathering capabilities probably know this kind of information in more detail than those who participated in the martial arts examination in person.
"oh?"
Yang Ji's brows moved, and he was greatly surprised. Most of the people who can get the first place in the talent test have undisputed strength, and their strength is often far beyond that of others.
It is very rare that Wu Xiucai, who ranks first in the martial arts examination, has to pour wine and food for other people in the martial arts examination within a few months. Even Zhao Lenggong of Tianshui County can only be defeated by the "elder brother" of the previous generation.
Pass him.
And within the same class, there is still no one who can challenge him.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a person in this year's martial arts examination! To be able to beat the leader of the martial arts examination in a short period of time is either because of an extra adventure or because of an astonishing talent!"
Yang Ji secretly said that he immediately left a big impression on Chen Bo, whom he had never met before.
"Haha, in fact, in this year's martial arts examination, there are many powerful masters besides him. It's just that this Chen Bo is relatively more popular!"
Ouyang Zizhi knew what Yang Ji was thinking, and he was quite confident in Yang Ji.
Yang Ji smiled and walked inside.
Inside the Martial Palace, it is incredibly huge. Looking over it, you can't see the other side at all. There are so many people everywhere in the hall.
Yang Ji raised his head, and the first thing he saw was three huge golden statues, clad in armor and standing, standing or standing. Their huge bodies were condescending, making anyone feel insignificant.
"Three Saints!"
A thought flashed through Yang Ji's mind. The Three Saints were the three great heroes who followed Taizu Conglong when the Emperor of Han Dynasty was founded. They were the three giants of the Military Department, the Ministry of Industry, and the Household Government.
These three people, two marshals, generals, and a prince, their status has exceeded the departments they belong to. Almost all the departments in the early days of the empire were created by them.
These three people are known as the first generation guardians of the empire!
The martial arts halls and literary palaces in various places in the Han Dynasty were repaired or rebuilt under their strong advocacy. Almost all the martial arts halls at the imperial level in various places have their statues.
Yang Ji raised his eyes and looked up. He could see wisps of faint, invisible aura bursting out from the three statues, floating up into the void, and disappearing into the vast and unpredictable depths of space.
This is the power of faith!
This is not the first time Yang Ji has come into contact with this kind of power. The three statues of the Patriarch enshrined in the Iron Crown Sect will also emit this kind of power.
Following Taizu and Conglong is an unparalleled feat, which is enough to build temples and worship gods and collect incense.
These three saints were already Great Martial Saints a thousand years ago, but now, they no longer know how high they are. In fact, Yang Ji also knows another story about these three saints in the Martial Palace.
The first of a hundred saints!
Among the hundred saints who protect the Martial Palace, these three are the leaders. This is why huge statues of them are built in the Martial Palace.
Apart from the statues of the Three Saints, the most eye-catching thing is the eight huge arenas that are far apart in the Martial Hall. Made of dark golden talisman steel, the area is equivalent to seven or eight times the size of the scholar-level martial arts examination, and it is more than ten meters above the ground.
It looks majestic. Quite spectacular.
Such a large area gives the performer a huge space, allowing players to maximize their abilities. At least it feels quite comfortable.
But what shocked Yang Ji the most was the brilliant rainbow light flashing on the eight stages. Eight huge pot-shape rainbow lights poured out on the stage, which looked beautiful, mysterious, and quite dazzling!
"Array!"
Yang Ji was shocked. This civil-level martial arts examination was completely different from those in counties.
"Hey, it's a barrier to be precise. It is said that it uses a little bit of alien space and the abilities of other empires. This kind of barrier is said to be particularly suitable for competitions. So it was modified and used in the martial arts examination."
Ouyang Zushi's voice came from the side:
"This kind of barrier has only been used for a few times, but it is said to be quite effective. The energy of the barrier is endless, and even the eighth-level martial arts masters fighting inside can't even think of destroying it."
"This is also a martial arts examination at the county level. The arena is often damaged too much. From time to time, some extremely talented and powerful geniuses appear, making the court's arena often unable to withstand the pressure and damage. Originally, formations were considered, but the formations were not
It is suitable for this kind of small-scale competition, but it consumes too much energy. So I used it. The effect is still quite good so far."
"It's basically impossible to destroy the martial arts examination at the civil service level!"
Ouyang Zushi smiled and said. After he broke through to the military commander level, the attention he received from the family increased almost exponentially. With the news he knew, more and more resources could be mobilized, which was very helpful to Yang Ji in this regard.
Yang Ji remained silent. He didn't need to tell Ouyang Zizhi to tell that these "enchantments" were quite outstanding. It wasn't that the "enchantments" were tough and unbreakable. The key was that they had a steady stream of energy.
.
No matter how much the martial arts examination candidates damage it, it can be repaired. This is a level of energy consumption. Considering that the martial arts examination candidates focus on their respective opponents, the damage to the barrier is completely a spillover effect, so Ouyang Zi
It's true, these barriers are unbreakable.
Before the competition started, there were more and more people in the martial arts hall. Just when Yang Ji and Ouyang Zishi were talking, a boom! A commotion suddenly came from the door.
Yang Ji turned around and saw a row of candidates in black clothes and arrogant expressions filing in through the gate. They looked particularly conspicuous.
"Heishuiya! They are from Heishuiya!"
"Look, that's their senior brother Zhang Daoyi!"
…
A burst of screams came from the crowd at the gate, and the crowd cheered quite enthusiastically. Many people even screamed excitedly. (To be continued...)
