The Four Pavilions Conference was held in the capital. This is the highest-level conference in the Donghua Empire. In addition, the Four Pavilions are the first line of defense for the empire to defend against the demon clan and the sea clan. It is related to the survival of the Donghua Empire. As the host, the royal family dare not He was negligent and specially gave the Imperial Capital Square, which could accommodate tens of thousands of people, to the people of the Four Pavilions as the main venue.
Unexpectedly, at the beginning, only people from the Four Pavilions could participate in the Four Pavilions Conference, and the content was said to be to discuss how the Four Pavilions could coordinate to defend against possible provocations from the Demon Clan or the Sea Clan. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the Four Pavilions Conference, and to prevent spies, Sneaking in, the royal family's troops surrounded the Imperial Capital Square.
The meeting began. Shen Rui was sitting in the disciples' seat. Although he had no interest in this kind of meeting, he focused on Zhao Tianxing, Zou Beitian and Lan Fangtian.
Zhao Tianxing looked energetic, with a strong aura, and flirted with the female disciples around him from time to time. Zou Beitian looked smug, looking to the sky, as if there was no one he liked. Shen Rui shook his head secretly at the performance of these two people, and he focused on Lan Fangtian.
Lan Fangtian looked indifferent. Although he was already a senior martial emperor, his aura was not strong. Compared with Zhao Tianxing and Zou Beitian, he looked very low-key. However, it was this low-key that made Shen Rui feel A surge of pressure.
Shen Rui was observing Lan Fangtian, and Lan Fangtian's eyes happened to drift toward him. Shen Rui immediately felt the hatred in his eyes. If eyes could kill, Shen Rui would have been killed several times.
After each of the pavilion masters of the four pavilions on the stage stated their views, Cheng Jie, the master of Minghui Pavilion, said to everyone: "Everyone, we are fortunate to invite Huangfu Yun, the elder of the Eastern Alliance of the Mainland, to the meeting today. Now we have invited the elder of the Mainland Eastern Alliance. Huangfu Yun, the elder of the Eastern Alliance, would like to give you some advice on the defense of our Donghua Empire."
As soon as he heard the word Huangfu, Shen Rui suddenly remembered that when he was killing Huangfu Huan, Huangfu Huan once said that he had a son who served as an elder in the Eastern Alliance. Could this Huangfu Yun be Huangfu Huan's son? Shen Rui was exhausted for a moment, and he wanted to see what Huangfu Yun looked like.
A middle-aged man in his forties walked out from the crowd. This middle-aged man was of medium build. Shen Rui could see a bit of Huangfu Huan on his face. It seemed that Huangfu Yun was undoubtedly Huangfu Huan's son. Already.
Although Huangfu Yun appears to be very kind and has no airs at all, Shen Rui looks left and right and feels that there is a sinister look in his eyes, and he tries his best to hide the aura of a strong man in his body. If Shen Rui hadn't Before he died, Huangfu Huan learned from his mouth that he was an intermediate martial arts master, but he could not tell his strength at all.
If Lan Fangtian has only restrained his strength a little, Huangfu Yun looks like an ordinary person. It seems that he is a powerful character, Shen Rui said to himself secretly.
Shen Rui finally felt relieved when he thought that no outsiders were present when he killed Huangfu Huan, and that Huangfu Yun probably didn't know that he killed him himself.
Huangfu Yun said some polite words, published a long speech, and then returned to his seat. Before leaving the stage, he glanced in Shen Rui's direction intentionally or unintentionally, flashing a look of resentment, which made Shen Rui My heart skipped a beat, did this guy know that he was the one who killed his father?
This situation is not impossible. People with strong mental strength can still distinguish the aura left by a local warrior after a few days. If Huangfu Yun can discover the news of Huangfu Huan's death in time, he may have mastered Shen Rui's aura. Thinking of this, a few drops of cold sweat broke out on Shen Rui's back.
This discussion lasted a full day, and the disciples of the Four Pavilions were all listless, but thinking that the most exciting competition of the Four Pavilions was going to be held the next day, they had the motivation to continue.
Because this day was an internal meeting of the Four Pavilions, there were only a few hundred people present, but on the second day, everything became completely different.
The next day, when Shen Rui was sitting in the disciples' seats, he was surprised to find that the entire square, which could accommodate tens of thousands of people, was actually overcrowded. The entire square was enveloped in noisy sounds, and almost all the people who came were warriors. They were all excited to enter this square to watch the highest-level competition in Donghua Kingdom. Of course, they were also full of expectations.
It turns out that in order to show their strength in the Donghua Empire and at the same time make an advertisement for recruiting disciples in the coming year, the Four Pavilions allow warriors from all over the country and even those from neighboring countries to enter the square to watch the triennial Four Pavilions Competition, which is arranged by the royal family. , of course, not everyone can come in casually. The royal family has maximized the benefits of every position. It is impossible to come in without spending a certain amount of money. It is said that the tickets for the big competition were sold for hundreds of thousands of taels of gold each. , and it’s still very affordable.
The person who presided over the competition among the disciples of the Four Pavilions was Cheng Jie, the master of the Minghui Pavilion who won the last Four Pavilion Conference.
Cheng Jie walked to the center of the square. He looked full of energy and even calmer than Lan Fangtian. It seemed that the winner of this year's competition was already in his Minghui Pavilion. People in the other two pavilions did not understand. His expression, but Jiang Taotian and Shen Rui knew why he was so excited.
Cheng Jie said in a loud voice: "Everyone here, please calm down."
His voice instantly reverberated throughout the square, and the noisy voices in the square suddenly quieted down. Cheng Jie was very satisfied with his strength, and continued: "Today is a grand event in our Donghua Empire, Minghui Pavilion, Ziwei Pavilion , Xiaotian Pavilion and Yunyuan Pavilion, the four largest sects in the Donghua Empire, are about to hold a competition among the four pavilions here to show everyone the style of our young disciples from the four pavilions."
His words were very provocative, and there was a storm of applause from the audience.
Cheng Jie added: "The four pavilions of our Donghua Empire have always produced numerous talents. This year our four pavilions have a surprise for everyone, that is, all disciples under the age of eighteen will participate in this competition."
There was no applause this time. Many people shouted that they were cheating. They originally wanted to come here to watch the competition between the most outstanding disciples of the Four Pavilions, but now all the young people under the age of 18 are participating in the competition. What ability can this young man have? They were instantly disappointed.
Cheng Jie heard many disappointed boos from the audience and smiled: "You may think that the martial arts competition between young people under the age of 18 is not interesting, but what I want to tell you is that our disciples participating in the competition this time are even older. They are still under eighteen years old, but almost all of them are warriors above the intermediate level of Martial Emperor."
As soon as these words came out, the audience became lively and discussed the reliability of Cheng Jie's words. In the Donghua Empire, the intermediate martial emperor was enough to go sideways. Now Cheng Jie said that these young men are almost all warriors above the intermediate martial emperor. Many people simply don't believe it.
