After Lin Che left the Kamikaze Mountains, she immediately rushed to a nearby town.
Before his experience, he was afraid that the mountains would be too dangerous, so he asked Xiaoyao to stay here temporarily.
After being ambushed by the Fifth Elder, Lin Che became extremely worried about the safety of this little girl.
Fortunately, when he found Xiaoyao, the little girl was still alive and kicking and was not in any danger.
"Master, you are finally back..." Xiao Yao cried with joy after seeing Lin Che. After all, in this girl's heart, Lin Che is all she can rely on now.
Lin Che touched her head comfortingly, "This period of time has made you worried..."
Then he asked: "Has anyone from the Lin family been here in this small town recently?"
"Yes." Xiao Yao nodded solemnly, "Young Master, I have seen many warriors from the Lin family wandering around in the past few days. They all seem to be looking for you... But I hid every time and was not caught by them.
Discover."
Hearing this, Lin Che frowned.
From this point of view, he really underestimated the Lin family's determination to kill him.
With this in mind, Lin Che looked at Xiao Yao and said, "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's go."
"Master, where are we going?"
"Go back to Canglan City." Lin Che said directly.
"Ah! Back to Canglan City...but..." Xiaoyao looked surprised.
But at this time, Lin Che said: "I want to go back and get back everything I have lost!"
…
Canglan City.
On this day, the city was crowded with people, and almost all the streets were packed with people.
It can be said that Canglan City has never seen such a lively scene as it does today in the past ten years.
The reason for this is very simple, that is, it is rumored that a mentor will come from Daocang Academy today to select disciples in Canglan City.
Daocangyuan is the largest force in Yangzhou.
It is rumored that Daocang Academy will select young warriors with outstanding talents from major cities in Yangzhou every year and recruit them to practice in the academy.
Yangzhou's territory is extremely vast, and there are more than a thousand cities of various sizes within the territory, but Daocangyuan's annual enrollment quota is only a hundred.
This also means that only large cities ranked in the top 100 in terms of comprehensive strength are qualified to enter the field of vision of Daocangyuan.
As for Canglan City, this is the first time in the past ten years that it has entered the top 100 cities. It can be said that both the major families and the people in the city have been looking forward to this event for a long time.
"It is rumored that Daocang Yuan recruits disciples in all major cities, and there is only one quota. In other words, only the most talented among the younger generation in Canglan City have the possibility to become Daocang Yuan's disciples... Guess which family?
A genius who will become this lucky person?"
All major families in the city attach great importance to this sect selection competition. Once the younger members of the clan become disciples of Daocangyuan, their future will be bright and their family will soar to the sky.
On the major streets of Canglan City, there was a surging flow of people and a lot of noise.
And the focus of everyone's discussion is undoubtedly on this matter.
"Is there any suspense about this..."
"The Murong family has always been the largest family in Canglan City. The daughter of the family leader, Miss Murong Yan, is also recognized as the number one genius in the city. I think the number one in this selection competition is none other than Murong Yan!"
"That's not necessarily true... For this year's selection battle, all the major families have completely opened up their family resources to the juniors. In order to preserve their strength, the juniors of each clan have no record of fighting against each other this year, so no one can guess.
How far have they grown?"
"Murong Yan is indeed very strong, but in my opinion, Shentu Yuan, the genius of the Shentu family, is not weak either. He may not lose this year!"
Murong Yan, Shen Tuyuan.
These two people are the two most popular geniuses in Canglan City today.
Therefore, the focus of everyone's discussion naturally focused on these two people.
However, at this moment, someone sighed, "These two are indeed the favorites to win the championship, but to say which one of them is the number one genius in Canglan City is a bit exaggerated... After all, in previous years,
In the middle, these two geniuses were firmly suppressed by one person."
"This year, they are so popular because that person is unable to participate in this sect selection competition."
As soon as these words came out, the figure of a young man unconsciously appeared in everyone's mind.
Lin Che!
To say that over the years, the only person recognized as the number one genius in Canglan City is this boy.
Back then, when his talent had not disappeared, no young man in the city could compare with him.
"Lin Che was indeed amazing back then, but since a year ago, he has contracted a strange disease, his Dantian has shattered, and he has fallen from the clouds into the abyss... If not, the Lin family would have had unprecedented success if they had this son.
Honor, and the most serious loss this time is probably the Lin family."
"Haha, I heard that Lin Che has been unilaterally torn up her engagement by Miss Murong Yan of the Murong family. Not long ago, she was deposed as the young master by the Lin family and expelled from the family. She has become the laughing stock of the entire Canglan City... Now...
, I'm afraid he doesn't know where he is begging, and what else is there to discuss." Someone said with disdain.
When it comes to Lin Che, some people feel pity for her, some feel sad for her success, and some are gloating about her misfortune.
But no matter what kind of emotion it is, it only flashes through people's hearts.
In the world of martial arts, people will only remember the strong.
No matter how many honors he has in the past, once he falls off the altar, he will gradually be forgotten by the world.
The most prosperous Central Street in Canglan City.
Surrounding a huge battle platform, all the major families and forces in Canglan City have taken their seats.
From where the Lin family was, the head of the family, Lin Xionghai, looked at Lin Yu.
"Yu'er, how is the progress these days?"
When Lin Yu heard this inquiry, he quickly and respectfully said: "Uncle, don't worry, since the family resources have been fully opened to my nephew, three days ago, my nephew has fortunately lived up to his fate and has advanced to the eighth level of Qi Gathering."
"The eighth level of Qi gathering..."
Seeing Lin Yu's proud expression, Lin Xionghai not only did not feel relaxed, but his expression became more serious.
The eighth level of Qi Gathering was just a level that Lin Che had reached a year ago.
In comparison, there is indeed a huge gap between Lin Yu's talent and that of the man who betrayed the family.
This made Lin Xionghai feel extremely regretful. If it hadn't been for the accident a year ago, perhaps the Lin family would have really hoped to gain access to Daocangyuan as its backer.
However, nothing can be said now, and the Lin family can only place its last hope on Lin Yu.
Even though this Lin Yu, Lin Xionghai didn't like him very much in his heart.
"As for Lin Che...if the Fifth Elder took action, she should have died somewhere in the wilderness, right?"
With these thoughts flashing through his mind, Lin Xionghai's face did not waver at all from beginning to end. He patted Lin Yu's shoulder and said, "Yu'er, there is no need to bear any burden. Just try your best."
"Even if my nephew works hard, he will definitely bring glory to the Lin family."
For more than ten years, he had been overwhelmed by Lin Che's aura and could not lift his head up. Now feeling Lin Xionghai's respect, Lin Yu said flattered.
"The city lord is here!"
Rumble——
Just as the crowd was talking, a heavy sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded in the central street.
A group of armored soldiers came galloping over, surrounded by a middle-aged man with a beautiful face, and rushed directly to the giant round platform.
Seeing this force, all the major families in Canglan City stood up to show their respect.
This is the power of the City Lord's Mansion, and the middle-aged man in the middle is Xiao Feng, the Lord of Canglan City.
Although there are many families in Canglan City, even the first family does not dare to challenge the City Lord's Mansion head-on. This is not only because the City Lord's Mansion is powerful in force, but more importantly, the officials behind this force are represented.
After Xiao Feng stepped onto the round stage, he waved his hand and said, "Invite Teacher Ji to come on stage!"
Immediately, a luxurious soft sedan appeared in everyone's sight.
The sedan curtain opened, and an old man with a red face stepped out of it.
This person is none other than the mentor of Daocangyuan, Ji Zong.
Seeing this old man who could decide the fate of the major families in Canglan City, all the people from the major families along the way showed flattering eyes.
However, facing these gazes, the old man did not look away and walked up to the high platform with a majestic look on his face.
"Instructor Ji, on behalf of Daocang Yuan, is coming to Canglan City for the first time. If there is anything wrong with the reception, please forgive me." City Lord Xiao said with a smile.
"Hehehe, City Master Xiao is too polite. I am working for Daocang Yuan. I just hope everything goes well this time..."
"I heard that Master Ji's stay in the city is limited. In that case, let's get started without further delay." City Lord Xiao said from the side.
"good."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Zong came directly to the center of the round platform and said loudly: "My name is Ji Zong. I am the instructor of Daocang Academy. I am also the person responsible for the assessment of Canglan City this time..."
"I think you all know the purpose of my visit this time, so there is no need for me to elaborate further."
"In this case, I will explain the rules of this assessment. All young people under the age of twenty are eligible to participate in this assessment. The assessment is divided into two rounds. The first round is the preliminary examination. As for the method of passing the preliminary examination...
"
When Ji Zong said this, he suddenly waved his sleeves.
"Wow——"
Three wooden figures appeared on the battle platform.
Ji Zong said slowly: "All those who take the assessment will pass the first round of assessment if they can stand on the battlefield and remain standing under the attack of these three wooden figures after one stick of incense."
Those who can stand on the battlefield and remain standing for one stick of incense will pass the first round of assessment.
Simple?
The old man in brocade robes said it simply, but at this moment, when everyone saw the three wooden figures holding wooden swords, they all showed solemn expressions.
Because they clearly sensed that the moment the three wooden figures appeared, the space faintly shook, and a strong sense of oppression came over them.
This proves that the three wooden figures possess extremely strong combat power.
There was silence for a moment.
Finally, I don’t know how long it took before someone was the first to step onto the battlefield.
"This is... the eldest son of the Song family, Song Lei!"
Many people recognized the young man who was the first to walk towards the fighting platform.
Song Lei is at the sixth level of Qi Gathering. Although he is not considered the top genius in Canglan City, his strength is still in the middle and upper reaches.
Coupled with the courage to be the first to play, the crowd burst into cheers.
"No one dares to be the first one? I'm sorry, but this opportunity to show my face has been given to me."
Song Lei stepped onto the fighting stage step by step, with a calm expression on his face, thinking to himself, how difficult can the first round of assessment be?
But when he stepped onto the last step, a cold breath suddenly enveloped him.
One of the wooden figures on the battle platform moved!
"Wow——"
The wooden sword in the hand of the wooden man was raised like a gust of wind, sweeping towards Song Lei with an extremely fierce momentum.
boom!
The next moment, Song Lei's body flew out directly from the battlefield!
