Although Jia Ruoyan was smiling at the moment, no one dared to provoke her easily.
Several powerful sect teams all had a tacit understanding not to attack each other, nor did they plan to start a war with Jia Ruoyan.
The time for burning incense passed quickly, and there were finally five sect teams left on the field. Among them, only Tianxiangju still had three monks present, and the other four sects only had two monks present.
Obviously, Tianxiangju became the target of public criticism, and they themselves were aware of this. After a while of whispering, they selected a monk from Tianxiangju to withdraw from the venue.
At this point, there are still five sects with a total of ten monks left on the field, and the selection of the top ten has finally been settled!
Although Zhuang Zhengqi only had a faint smile on his face, he was really happy in his heart.
He originally expected Muzhou to play and win a top ten spot for him, but he didn't expect that it would be Jia Ruoyan, a dark horse, who would help him win an invitation.
"Muzhou is exaggerating, but the strength of the two Zhang Daniu brothers should not be underestimated. It seems that I will have to be more diligent in the future so that they can serve our sect willingly!" Zhuang Zhengqi thought secretly in his heart.
At this time, Jia Ruoyan had come down from the ring and was standing behind Liang Yan very obediently. The veteran of the Ningyang Sect stepped forward again and announced to everyone the ownership of the twenty invitations.
Among them, the top ten monks each get one, and the five sect leaders at the end each get one. The remaining five are awarded to those monks who performed particularly well.
As a small sect with not very powerful power, the Huxin Sect was able to get three invitations, which made many people look at Zhuang Zhengqi in a new light.
Zhuang Zhengqi himself had already arrived in front of Liang Yan and Jia Ruoyan at this moment. With a smile on his face, he cupped his hands towards them and said, "The magical powers of the Zhang brothers and sisters are indeed extraordinary. This time our Huxin Sect has become famous in one fell swoop.
It’s up to you two to help!”
Jia Ruoyan pursed her lips and smiled, while Liang Yan shook his head and said: "The sect master has given you too much praise. Since my brothers and sisters have joined the sect and received the sect's offerings, we will naturally contribute to the sect."
Zhuang Zhengqi was overjoyed when he heard this, and nodded repeatedly: "It's really valuable for Elder Zhang to have such an idea. As for the invitation, the one your sister got, naturally belongs to her, and the one from Elder Sheng, I mean
Give it to Elder Zhang, and then our sect will compensate Elder Sheng from other places."
When Sheng Chi heard that he was about to hand over his invitation, his expression immediately changed. You must know that anyone holding the invitation will have the opportunity to read the legendary Yellow Stone Book. Although the chance of enlightenment is extremely small, after all,
It's also an opportunity.
However, he also knew that he had benefited from Jia Ruoyan, and Liang Yan had once saved his life, so he couldn't say anything against it and could only nod helplessly.
Unexpectedly, Liang Yan smiled and waved his hand and said, "Sect Master, there is no need for this. In fact, we brothers and sisters had some adventures four years ago and have already received an invitation."
"oh?"
Zhuang Zhengqi was happy when he heard this, but then he said: "I wonder if Elder Zhang can take out the invitation and let me wait and see. After all, Huangshi Mountain released the news in advance, and many forged invitations have appeared in Nanchui in recent years, especially some
After all, for this small and remote country, being able to go up to Mount Huangshi to read the Yellowstone Heavenly Book is a great opportunity!"
"You can do anything you want!"
Liang Yan didn't take Zhuang Zhengqi's words to heart at all. After all, the invitation in his hand came from Yuan Jiuling, a monk with half a foot in the golden elixir. There was no reason to deceive him.
He took out a small sandalwood box from his storage bag, pushed the lid open, and revealed the invitation as white as jade inside.
As soon as the invitation appeared, Zhuang Zhengqi and Sheng Chi's expressions immediately changed, and they both showed expressions of disbelief.
Liang Yan looked on, puzzled, and couldn't help but ask: "Is there anything wrong with this invitation?"
Zhuang Zhengqi was silent for a while and then suddenly asked: "Elder Zhang, who did your invitation come from? Didn't he make it clear to you at the beginning?"
Liang Yan shook his head. At first, Yuan Jiuling only said that he would use this thing to repay his kindness for helping him, but he did not explain what it was at all. He even found out about the usage of the invitation later.
"Elder Zhang, your invitation is different from ours." Sheng Chi said slowly from the side.
"no the same?"
Liang Yan had a look of doubt on his face. At this moment, the monks in robes on the stage had already started handing out invitations. When he raised his hand, twenty rays of earth-yellow light appeared in front of him.
Immediately afterwards, the Ningyang Sect monk flicked his sleeves, and the twenty invitations turned into twenty earth-yellow streams of light, flying in different directions, and three of them were in the direction of the Huxin Sect.
Zhuang Zhengqi raised his hand and took the three invitations into his hand. Only then did Liang Yan see clearly that the invitations these people had received were all earthy yellow.
Only my invitation is as white as jade!
"How could it be? He shouldn't have lied to me."
Now it was Liang Yan's turn to look unbelievable.
When he helped Yuan Jiuling obtain the golden elixir, it was supposed to be a huge favor. However, as Yuan Jiuling, anything he could bring out could benefit Liang Yan endlessly. He should never be deceived about this matter.
He is right.
"Elder Zhang, don't be discouraged. In fact, the invitation in your hand is genuine, it's just rarer than ours." Zhuang Zhengqi guessed what Liang Yan was thinking and immediately explained.
"Oh?" Liang Yan felt a little relieved after hearing his words, but immediately asked curiously: "Is there anything different about this white invitation?"
Zhuang Zhengqi did not answer his question immediately, but asked: "Elder Zhang, does he know about the 'Hundred Fruit Feast'?"
"I've definitely never heard of this particular cultivator."
Zhuang Zhengqi nodded slightly and said: "Elder Zhang is not from Xu Kingdom, so it is normal that he does not know about this matter. It is a long story. In fact, the Yellowstone Heavenly Book on Huangshi Mountain was discovered by an outsider monk three thousand years ago."
"Extraterritorial monk?"
Liang Yan's heart moved. Although he didn't know what Zhuang Zhengqi said had anything to do with the invitation in his hand, he was still quite curious about this person, and then asked: "This person's cultivation and magical powers must have exceeded the Golden Core realm."
, why do you still come to our land in the south?"
"Because this person is good at deduction. He once calculated a fortune for himself. He has to survive the disaster in this southern place."
Zhuang Zhengqi smiled slightly and said: "So, this man traveled far away from the Sea of Fallen Souls and came here all the way. Later, he accidentally discovered a strange stone on the Yellowstone Mountain and sat in front of the stone for three years before he finally realized his supernatural powers.
, broke his own disaster."
"And on his whim here, the orthodoxy he left behind is today's Huangshi Gong lineage!"
