The first thousand three hundred and six chapters final selection
Since the grand ceremony of selecting medicines, there have been fierce competitions every day for the past few days. Every day, people are promoted and people are eliminated every day.
Those who were promoted to second or third place in various county competitions had to complete preliminaries before the drug selection competition.
This kind of competition is a bit like when a famous artist in a brothel performs before a performance, some little-known little characters will come out to do a cutscene to warm up the performance for the rest.
Of course, the most grand event of the Xuanwu Empire, the Yaozi Competition, even these "hot" competitions will attract the attention of many people. For those trained by some small and medium-sized aristocratic families, even if they can participate in such a competition, for
It is already a great honor for them.
It’s just that the situation this time was too special. During the opening ceremony, two participants in the final competition were killed on the spot. This was something that had not happened for countless years. Then the murderers suffered crazy revenge, and even later the ghost painting family
Join forces to attack the Su family.
A series of events caused the entire imperial capital to turn their attention away, and almost no one paid attention to the current competition. As a result, the medicine selection competition between these people could be said to be a "hot spot".
"It's all difficult, it can be called a "cold scene".
But just today, the situation suddenly turned around, and the final competition for drug selection finally began. No matter any force or the "ignorant" people, they all turned their attention. Everyone wanted to take a look at this year's medicine competition.
How will the drug selection competition end?
There is a large square in front of Dishan, which actually belongs to the territory of the king Xuanhong. Although nominally speaking, the entire Xuanwu Empire should belong to Xuanhong, but so far, the territory he owns is only in Dishan.
It’s just this large square around Hedi Mountain.
Today is the "Kundong" solar term on the Kunxuan Continent, which means that the entire Kunxuan Continent has begun to enter winter.
The sun rises later in winter than in the past, but in today's Imperial City, before the sun has even risen, people have already gathered towards the Dishan Square in front of the Dishan Mountain.
Various forces, big and small, with different thoughts, or idle warriors without any sect, all arrived around the square before dawn.
Zuo Feng set off from the Su family after dawn, riding on the luxurious carriage prepared for him by the Su family. A large group of people arrived here in a mighty manner.
The six aristocratic families all have their own place here, and apart from the empty space prepared for the Lin family, almost no one comes here.
There have been constant disputes in the Imperial Capital during this period, but the Lin family seems to have disappeared all of a sudden. There are almost no strong members of the Lin family on the streets, and the shops belonging to the Lin family have also been closed. Some people speculate that the Lin family was the first to be eliminated in the internal fighting in the Imperial Capital.
There are even rumors that the Lin family has quietly moved away from the imperial capital.
At this moment, the place of the Lin family is empty. There are no elders and marshals of the Lin family, let alone the head of the Lin family. There are only dozens of strong men who are about the second generation of the Lin family, and it is not like there are any big shots.
As it comes.
After the six main super aristocratic families arrived, the atmosphere of the entire scene gradually took on a smell of gunpowder. The three heads of the Yaonsu and Wang families gathered together, and naturally the heads of the Gui family and the Painter family also gathered together. Not only the heads of the two parties, but also the following
Each and every one of the warriors was full of hostility.
Several family heads can calmly restrain the people below them temporarily, but as time goes by, friction will inevitably occur.
At this time, on a mountain wall above Emperor Mountain, the rocks suddenly moved slightly to reveal a gap. There was actually a secret door here.
The secret door is not fully opened. If you don't observe carefully from the outside, you won't be able to detect the subtle changes in this huge mountain.
Behind the crack that opened, there was a pair of eyes staring coldly at the changes outside. This person was Xuan Hong, the leader of the Xuanwu Kingdom.
"Father, if we just let it go like this, I'm afraid the two sides will fight before the competition starts. Is it best to get out as soon as possible?"
Behind Xuan Hong, a young man stood respectfully with his hands lowered. Seeing that Xuan Hong had no intention of showing up, he opened his mouth to remind him.
Xuan Hong glanced coldly at the several super aristocratic families below, blew out a sharp breath from his nose, and said with a low, cold "hum".
"The painter is aware of the current situation. He agreed to cooperate with me last night and obeyed my orders. But the painter secretly mobilized people who came into the city. Did he think that I was deaf or blind and didn't know at all?
The Gui family still refuses to give in. They even argue that the opinions within the family cannot be unified, and they are still unable to convince the people in the family.
This group of people think that at this moment, they have no other choice. I think they are too tolerant towards the two families. They think that they can secretly recall the strong family members who have been scattered in the empire.
Rejecting my ability is simply a big joke."
Xuan Hong glared at the heads of the Guihua family coldly, and then said: "If you don't go out for the time being, let them see clearly. Now I am their only supporter. If they don't fall to my side, they will lose their bones in the end."
There will be no scum left."
Xuan Mie's eyes flickered slightly, as if he was thinking about something in his heart, but on the surface he said respectfully: "The foster father is far-sighted, and the child has learned a lesson."
Xuan Hong didn't say anything more, but looked further away.
The Imperial Mountain is surrounded by squares, and the square in front of the Imperial Capital is the widest. The square in the other direction is extremely small because it is close to the mansions of several super aristocratic families.
The location he is looking at right now is a building outside the square. Facing the square, there are several large exchanges and auction houses that buy and sell various rare materials. These buildings belong to different forces.
One of the exchanges is owned by the Ancient Wasteland Empire. To be more precise, it belongs to Huang Tao's layout in the imperial capital. At this time, on the highest floor of the exchange, a middle-aged man wearing Chinese clothes was also observing
Following the changes in the square, this person was none other than Huang Tao, the victorious king of the Fengtian Dynasty.
At the edge of this row of buildings, there is a brothel that occupies a very large area. The scale of this brothel is considered the best in the entire imperial capital, but today is the day of the drug selection competition, and no one will do it in the early morning.
When you come here to drink flower wine, this brothel seems deserted.
The brothel is divided into five floors. On the highest floor there is a plump middle-aged man. Standing at the railing and looking out, there are two charming middle-aged women beside him.
This man is He Huan, the master of Huanxi Hall, the inner hall of Qianhuan Sect, and the woman beside him is the two elders of Huanxi Hall, Elder Hong and Elder Zi.
In addition to these, there are also people from other forces in other buildings facing the square, secretly observing the situation here. These people have no intention of taking action now, and they have only one purpose. Keep watching,
Wait until the final result of the drug selection comes out.
Behind the secret door in Nadi Mountain, Xuan Hong looked coldly at the changes below, and couldn't help but frown slightly after a moment.
"Yao Tuozi hasn't appeared yet. Only Yao Zhen came with a few members of the Yao family. It seems that Yao Tuozi really has other plans. But that's fine. I really want to see what you can do.
What's the trick?
Today, both the dragon crossing the river and the tiger descending the mountain have gathered together, and the more lively it is, the more beneficial it is to me."
After muttering to himself with a sneer, Xuan Hong turned around fiercely, and Xuan Mie hurriedly stepped aside in fright. He kept his head down, so that Xuan Hong didn't see the trace of panic in his eyes, until Xuan Hong
After walking far away, Xuan Mie hurriedly followed him, and the two of them walked through the Emperor Mountain and headed downwards.
A moment later, the king of the country, Xuan Hong, appeared on a platform extending out like an arm on the Imperial Mountain. His appearance immediately silenced the entire square.
Although Xuan Hong only represents a symbol of the entire empire, his appearance at this time also means that the final competition for selecting medicines is about to begin, and everyone unconsciously holds their breath in silence.
With a smile on his face, Xuan Hong walked slowly to the front of the platform and said loudly: "All contestants for the drug selection competition, please come to the center of the square."
Ten people, including Zuo Feng, walked out of their respective forces and walked towards the center of the square. In the center of the square, there were ten stone platforms, each of which was about ten feet long and half a foot wide, and
Each stone platform is carved from a single boulder.
Ten people including Zuo Feng, Duan Yueyao, the painter's second son Hua Zheng and Hua Qi, and Gui family's Gui Chao and Gui Huan entered the square and went to look for their own stone platform.
Each stone platform is engraved with the name of the contestant, and the stone platform is specially built for the contestants.
After all the people who participated in the competition entered the square, Xuanhong glanced at everyone present with a smile, and then said loudly: "Now, I would like to invite all the heads of the family to come up with tokens, and please name the highest scorer in this competition."
The reward is the Crystal of the Imperial Formation."
As soon as these words came out, there was a buzz of discussion in the outer circle of the square below. Some people didn't know until today that the medicine selection this time actually had a reward such as the Crystal of the Imperial Formation. This treasure of the Xuanwu Empire would actually be used by
Taking it out as the final reward is something that they can't even imagine.
However, some small and medium-sized forces have already guessed that this Imperial Formation Crystal is definitely not from the ancient empire, but the fake Imperial Formation Crystal refined by Yongtu back then.
After Xuan Hong finished speaking loudly, he suddenly mobilized his spiritual energy, and runes began to be carved in the void.
As soon as the first rune was drawn, the entire Emperor Mountain changed immediately, and a shadow of the formation quickly appeared. As Xuan Hong carved more and more runes, the formation also continued to expand.
And it gradually became associated with the entire imperial capital's city defense formation.
