Due to the competition, the teaching hall was suspended, and all the disciples in the hall began to retreat. Even Lou Shuo, who used to love collecting gossip, stopped and began to practice quietly, except for Jiang Ran.
She has just started practicing for a few years. Although she has received unanimous attention from all the masters recently, her cultivation level is too low after all. Even among mortal monks, she can only be regarded as an entry-level person. Therefore, she is the only one who does not need to do this in this competition.
Disciples who participated.
She originally thought she could finally have some free time, but the Emperor of Heaven sent a bunch of things again, and Qingjue had also gone into seclusion, so she had no choice but to sort them out by herself.
"Bi Heng, the Lord of Qinghe Fairy City, Jing Zhong, the Lord of Muyang Mountain, Chengmao of Biling Palace..." Huangxue read the names in the booklet in his hand, and the more he read, the more curious he became, "This is what the little Heavenly Emperor sent,
Your Majesty, what kind of roster is this?"
"Oh." Jiang Ran replied smoothly while sorting it out, "You should be looking at the list of Taoist companions with me next!"
"What!?" Huangxue was shocked.
There was a thud next to him, and Xiao Lianhua, who had been helping to organize things just now, lost all control of the magic weapon in his hand and fell to the ground.
Qi Kuo came over with a look of disbelief and asked urgently, "What, my sister wants to choose a Taoist companion! How come I don't know about such an important matter?"
"Ah? Haven't you heard that prophecy?" Jiang Ran was confused by the reactions of several people. Doesn't the reason why she became a princess be known to all the six realms?
The three of them were stunned for a moment, and then they later recalled that her current vest was Princess Fengtian of the Tiangong Palace, and all this was because the Oracle of Heaven mentioned that people of her bloodline could solve the crisis in the Demonic Abyss.
But she was originally Your Majesty. She could solve the Demonic Abyss by herself, even if she didn't need any bloodline! Even if she didn't have any cultivation now, but with Little Lotus, with them here, and with His Majesty's guidance, she would definitely not be able to solve it.
Problem.
Jiang Ran did not regard the matter of the Demonic Abyss as a crisis. Taking a step back, even if the Demonic Abyss really broke out, she was confident that she could seal it back again.
It's just that the Emperor of Heaven doesn't know about this, nor do the Six Realms, and she still wants to keep wearing the vest.
"I'm just serving Heaven now." Jiang Ran said nonchalantly.
"So... do you really want to see the people in this book?" Huangxue frowned, looking at the book, his eyes suddenly became critical, "Tsk, tsk, but the immortals on this list are not well-known, they should all be unknown.
He is a little immortal who has only been practicing in the Heavenly Palace for a thousand years. Apart from being young and in good health, he has no other advantages. How about I help you choose?"
"Tch, apart from seeing their faces, what else can you do with the ones you picked?" Qi Kuohao pointed it out rudely, snatched the roster from her hand and said, "Those are the only ones you can see, you treat me as my sister and follow me.
You too."
"What's wrong with having a good-looking face? At least it's pleasing to the eye." Xiaoxue puffed up her chest, rolled her eyes at him and snorted, "Huh, you're ugly yourself, and you don't want others to look for good-looking ones."
"Bah, you are obviously superficial!"
"I'm superficial, I'm proud! A little bit..."
"you……"
Seeing that the two of them had a disagreement and started bickering again, Jiang Ran shook her head and continued to pick up another booklet next to her. Just as she was about to take a closer look, a figure suddenly approached and stopped beside her.
"Aran..."
"Huh?" She looked up and saw Little Lotus who was hesitant to speak.
Fan Chen tightened his hand on the tight side and couldn't help but ask, "Are you serious... about choosing... a Taoist companion from that roster?"
"Well...just let it go." She replied smoothly.
Fan Chen's face suddenly turned a little whiter, his expression swayed for a moment, and he could not even hear his own voice, "Is it because of... the oracle of heaven?"
"Not entirely." Jiang Ran saw that he seemed to be very concerned, so he explained, "Heaven has actually been very good to me, and after so many years... I am also tired. Now that the situation is stable, if I can find someone who is destined
There's nothing wrong with spending this life with me." She is very open-minded about this, and has no obsession with finding a true love. After retirement, she just dances with multiple partners in the square.
Seeing that she had a casual look on her face and didn't look like she really belonged there, Fan Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, a sense of sourness came up again. The thoughts that had been suppressed for thousands of years and had been buried for a while came out again, and even
I impulsively wanted to tell her now, but the caution that had already been engraved in my bones suppressed this impulse.
He really didn't dare to be greedy and gamble. Being able to see her again was a miracle he had been dreaming of for thousands of years. Once he told her that, maybe even the current relationship between the two would be broken.
"Then let me ask your Majesty, which one does she like?" Over there, Huang Xue and Qi Kuo seemed to have finally come to an end. They both turned to look at Jiang Ran, as if they were determined to ask for an answer.
Jiang Ran had a dark look on his face. He really didn't want to get involved in their childish argument, so he had to change the topic and said, "The Emperor of Heaven sent more than one list. I just don't understand why the people on this list seem to be mortals."
She pointed to another roster in her hand, and sure enough, their attention instantly shifted and they came over curiously.
"Tianhua, Qiongxiao, Biluo...aren't these all mortal sects?" Huangxue blurted out, "This is the list of the mortal monks who will come to participate in the competition next time. It should be given to Hong Yi.
Maybe the disciple who sent me was confused and sent you here."
"Participate in the competition?" Jiang Ran was stunned, "Is it the Kung Fu Competition in a month? Can mortals also participate?" This was something she did not expect.
"This is natural." Huangxue took a step forward and explained, "There are many sects of cultivating immortals in the mortal world, all of which aim to ascend to immortality. However, there are not many inheritances in the mortal world, and they are often lost. If they are allowed to practice blindly on their own, it will be very difficult.
It is easy for problems to arise, or to go into evil ways. When the immortals in the immortal world come down to earth for training, they will also go to these immortal gates, firstly to preach, and secondly to discover some good seedlings and guide them into the immortal path."
"Oh." She didn't expect this at all, "It turns out that the sect of cultivating immortals in the lower realm is so closely connected to the fairy world."
"After all, if they really have the chance to ascend, they will all be immortal friends in the immortal world from now on." Huangxue said matter-of-factly, "If a good prospect appears, the temple or the Tiangong will directly keep it or book it.
As long as the other party agrees, they will directly become fellow disciples after ascending. Therefore, many immortal sects are willing to participate in this kind of competition. And the immortal world is also used to choosing disciples based on this kind of competition."
"That's right, such a grand competition will be held every few decades in various temples or heavenly palaces." Qi Kuo also said, "Zhentian Pavilion has never held it before, and this time there will be a lot of news.
All the cultivating sects are willing to come and give it a try."
I understand, this is the same as entering a higher school. Once you pass the exam, you can directly enter the university, and it is also the kind assigned by the graduation package.
