Sulan's voice had fallen, but there still seemed to be lingering sounds slowly echoing in the hall. No one made the slightest sound at this time, and time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
"call"
After a moment of silence, a sudden gasping sound suddenly sounded in the hall, as if someone had taken a long breath at this time. At the same time as this sound sounded, a young man was seen walking out of the crowd.
As soon as this person came out, he slowly walked up the steps, clasped his fists and bowed to salute. When he raised his head, his eyes stayed on Su Yan for a moment, then he shook his head and turned around to leave the hall.
This series of actions seemed a bit abrupt, but almost no one was surprised, and no one even laughed at his actions.
Every young man who can stand in this hall is an outstanding person among the people who have been selected along the way. In the Xuanwu Empire, cultivation is secondary, and only those with superb alchemy skills will be respected by others. At this time, in the hall
Among the people, except for Su Lan and the city lord who have reached a certain level of cultivation, everyone else basically has in-depth research on refining medicine.
These people are not afraid of the so-called competition, and they don't even have the excuse of being elegant. Sooner or later, they will see each other for real. But they have to hesitate, because the competition is coming, and the family has been preparing for this competition for five years.
, but everyone here has been working hard for this competition since they were born.
Although some people here may still have a chance to wait for the next five-year period, their desire for the name of the medicine has made them unable to wait calmly any longer.
After repeated weighing, these people's hearts were somewhat shaken. So when some people chose to quit at this time, not only did they not laugh at the slightest, but they weighed their own gains and losses in their hearts.
The withdrawal of this young man seemed to have helped others make the final decision, and finally someone followed suit. Just like the young man before, three young men walked out of the crowd again. Again, they did not say much, but
After clasping fists and saluting, he turned around and left the place.
Looking at the departing figures, Zuo Feng's expression hardly changed. If he hadn't figured out his own doubts, he might have chosen to leave long ago. But now Zuo Feng's eyes flashed, and he slowly took out a
Take the medicine in powder form and swallow it.
Naturally, this little move of his could not be hidden from Su Lan, Yao Zhen and others. When these people saw it, they didn't say much, but there was a subtle sneer on their faces.
Naturally, these people also saw that Zuo Feng was injured. In this case, taking medicine to recover would have minimal effect. In addition, in such an environment, recovering from the injury quickly in this way would
The strength that can be exerted will also be greatly reduced.
Therefore, those who saw this not only did not say much, but instead sneered and waited to see Zuo Feng's appearance in front of the ugly man.
When Zuo Feng took the medicine powder, seven or eight people came out again to salute and leave. These people left very decisively. However, after this group of people left, about two-thirds of the people who stayed were
No one chose to leave anymore, but all of them looked at Su Yan with firm eyes.
In fact, these people also have their own considerations. Although leaving can save the gift of gifts and participate in the competition to select medicines, staying to win the marriage of the Su family will also bring considerable rewards.
If they finally win here, then although they may lose the final ability to compete for Yaozi, they can still get married with the Su family. With the Su family as their backing, even if there is no Yaozi as important as
Identity is not a big loss for them.
The people who can reach this stage in the continuous competition of drug selection are all excellent people. After weighing the gains and losses in all aspects, some people think that it is in their own interests to stay, while others do not.
I think it will be more beneficial to participate in the competition.
In this way, when there are less than twenty people left in the hall, it can be regarded as a response to Su Lan's warning. The people left behind are those who are not afraid of danger and stay here to fight for this marriage.
"Since you have chosen to stay, I believe you are all mentally prepared. Naturally, the people we, the Su family, want to choose must also have our standards of measurement.
I have prepared three competitions for you. These competitions are not only to weed out those with insufficient skills, but also to differentiate among you. And since we proposed this competition, even if we fail in the end, our Su family will give it a try.
We will be compensated to a certain extent, at least we will not leave empty-handed."
Su Lan had no intention of being verbose, but went directly to the topic. Obviously she didn't want to waste more time here.
With the identity and status of the Su family, what they can give will not be too bad. Many people who stayed were still somewhat conflicted in their hearts, but after hearing these words, these people's faces became unconscious.
A hint of smile appeared, and even now he couldn't help but laugh at those who had left before.
Selecting medicines in a competition is like scouring the sand, selecting even better ones among many outstanding people. Although these people may be qualified here, more people will still be eliminated. And those who choose to participate in the three competitions here
People will also face elimination. After all, Sulan can only choose one person as her partner without makeup.
Then those who leave will get nothing if they do not get the final qualification in the competition. And those who stay, even if they do not get the chance to have a romantic relationship in the end, will still get benefits, which makes them feel a little happy.
.
Although most of these people have their own families, they will also receive a lot of resource assistance from their families. However, those resources are actually used to cultivate themselves, and few of them are actually preserved.
And what Su Lan gave her this time was truly in her hands, and it had nothing to do with the family.
Su Lan smiled slightly, raised her head and looked outside the main hall. Compared with the few people inside the main hall, there were quite a lot of people outside the main hall. Some of these people were known to Su Lan and Su Jing.
The other people are those brought by the city lord.
When Sulan's eyes fell outside the main hall, a middle-aged man wearing armor immediately stepped out and saluted with clasped fists.
Sulan said calmly: "Bring it up!"
The middle-aged man in armor responded with a "promise", and then raised his right hand high. Among the crowd behind him, several people immediately came towards the main hall with huge boxes. This scene made
Everyone was a little stunned. They originally thought that the competition here might be related to refining medicine, and at most it was about refining some high-level medicinal liquids.
Now that they saw Su Lan preparing like this, they also understood that the Su family's commander-in-chief had put a lot of effort into tonight's competition, otherwise it would not have been possible to prepare in such detail.
The warriors walked straight to the steps in front of the hall without hesitation. After placing them in a specific order, they retreated. After these people placed these huge boxes, they did not leave but arranged in a row.
On both sides of the main hall.
The careful Zuo Feng could tell from the appearance of those boxes that the boxes themselves were definitely not light, and the things placed in them should also have a certain weight. However, based on Zuo Feng's experience, he still couldn't guess what was in these boxes.
What exactly is placed?
Su Lan saw everyone's confused look, but she didn't feel the slightest surprise. Instead, she looked past the crowd and towards the entrance of the hall not far away.
An old man in rich clothes walked slowly in from the door. As everyone looked at the old man who had just entered, the crowd immediately let out a sound of exclamation, and at the same time, they respectfully raised their fists and saluted the old man.
"Mr. Zhong, be well."
"Mr. Zhong, you are here."
"Old Zhong"
These greetings kept ringing in Zuo Feng's ears, but Zuo Feng still didn't know who exactly this old man was. But when his eyes touched the old man's body, there seemed to be a faint feeling.
Fluctuations circulated endlessly outside his body, and these fluctuations gave Zuo Feng a somewhat familiar feeling.
The reason why it is familiar is that this subtle fluctuation is somewhat similar to Zuo Feng's special telekinesis power, but it is only somewhat similar. In fact, there are still differences.
Zuo Feng pondered for a moment and came to an astonishing result. The old man in front of him was a person with extremely advanced spiritual cultivation. Judging from Zuo Feng's personal experience, I am afraid that this old man should be among those who entered the god refining stage.
Among the people below, he is the one with the most profound spiritual cultivation.
The old man in front of him was very special and aroused Zuo Feng's great interest. When he was in the land of chaos, he met Yaoxun and City Lord Li Shang, two strong men in the god refining stage. Before that, he met Yaoxun and City Lord Li Shang.
Huansheng is also a character of that level.
At that time, Zuo Feng seemed to feel that this divine refining stage was not so difficult to overcome. But after he truly stepped into that level, he realized that everything was not as simple as he thought. Take Su Lan as an example.
I can't tell how old he is, but he is at least the kind of old monster that has lived for hundreds of years.
Such a person can't even enter the God-Refining Stage. You can imagine how difficult it is. The old man surnamed Zhong in front of him, although his cultivation level is not as good as Su Lan's, he actually has a faint mental strength.
With signs of condensing telekinesis, this kind of character can already be called a legend.
After all, there are only a few people like Zuo Feng who can create a sea of thoughts through the method of cultivating thoughts during the physical training stage and condense their own thoughts power.
The old man looked kind-hearted and walked through the crowd with a smile on his face. He always nodded slightly in return for those respectful greetings.
Under the gaze of everyone, he walked up the steps and came to Su Lan and the city lord. After a few polite words, he turned to look at the people below.
Obviously, the first of the three tests that Su Lan mentioned was closely related to this old man.
