"Let's go and watch too!" When the two guards saw Lu Chen leaving, their eyes flashed slightly, and then they left Lu Chen's small courtyard with some excitement.
Their responsibility is to guard the courtyard where Lu Chen lives and not let others disturb Lu Chen. Now that Lu Chen has left, they naturally don't need to stay here all the time.
In the Lu family's huge martial arts arena, there were numerous figures. Looking from a distance, one could only feel that it was completely dark, with figures everywhere.
The triennial family competition is a grand banquet. Anyone who can come will participate.
Because, as long as you participate, no matter what your ranking is, you will get very good resource rewards.
Even if you just sign up and then fight casually in the martial arts arena, or even just go up and admit defeat immediately.
Therefore, there are at least thousands of contestants participating in each family competition. If it were not for restrictions, this number could soar to tens of thousands.
Most of the cultivators who participated were in the bone refining and body tempering realms. There were only a few cultivators in the marrow washing realm.
In the realm of marrow cleansing, he is already at the master level. He is also the mainstay of the family.
"Have you seen Lu Chen?"
"Didn't see it."
"It should be because I didn't sign up."
"It's true that I didn't register. I've been staring at the registration office from morning to night these days, and I haven't seen Lu Chen at all."
"Haha, I'm a big shot, so of course I won't be in a hurry to sign up. Big shots only take their time to sign up at the last moment." Near the registration office, many children of the Lu family gathered together and discussed.
about various things.
Lu Chen was naturally an important target of their discussion.
Because during this period of time, Lu Chen's reputation has increased too quickly. Who in the entire Lu family has not said a few words about Lu Chen?
"Do you think this Lu Chen won't dare to show up?" A dark-skinned member of the Lu family flashed his eyes and looked at other people nearby.
"Don't dare? Why don't you dare? Don't you know that Lu Chen even disabled Wang Xiaotian of the Wang family? What kind of strength is Wang Xiaotian? He is in the middle stage of marrow cleansing!" one person said with a sneer.
"So what? He made an appointment with Brother Lu Ying at the coming-of-age ceremony three months ago! I think he must be afraid of Brother Lu Ying, so this time he just acted like a tortoise and didn't dare to show his head to take refuge." Another person sneered.
said.
After hearing these words, everyone else also fell silent.
Who is Lu Ying?
In recent years, the most outstanding disciple of the Lu family is Lu Ying.
Lu Ying has already entered Zhanlong Academy, one of the four major academies in Tiandang Continent. This person may break through the innate realm at any time.
In the entire Tiandang Continent, the names of the four major colleges are almost unknown to everyone.
As long as you can enter the four major academies, your status will rise rapidly. And the cultivator himself will also become the envy of others.
It can be said that all young practitioners in Tiandang Continent will regard entering the four major colleges as their goal.
Of course, more than 99% of people will never have the opportunity to enter the four major colleges in their lives.
It is too difficult to enter the four major academies. How many young cultivators are there in the entire Qingfeng City? There are countless young cultivators from the four major families alone. However, in such a city, every five years, the number of young cultivators who enter the four major academies is
There are no more than ten people in the graduate school in total.
It's not unreasonable for Lu Ying to be so arrogant.
"Miss, it seems that Master Lu Chen hasn't signed up yet. It seems that there is less than half an hour until the registration deadline." Xiaocui said in a low voice next to Lu Yanran.
Lu Yanran also just came to the registration office to register.
She also heard the discussions not far away.
"I'll go take a look." Lu Yanran thought for a moment and then said.
With that said, Lu Yanran quickly left the registration office and walked towards the inner courtyard of the mansion.
The inner courtyard is where the children of the Lu family live. The outer courtyard is mainly a public facility such as a martial arts arena.
"Yanran?"
As soon as Lu Chen left the inner courtyard and arrived at the outer courtyard, he saw Lu Yanran walking hurriedly from a distance, and he shouted.
At this time, Lu Yanran also saw Lu Chen, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face.
"Brother Lu Chen, I thought you forgot to sign up." Lu Yanran said with a smile.
"It was really almost delayed. I had just finished the retreat, and the guard told me that the registration deadline was only half an hour away." Lu Chen smiled.
"Huh? The aura has changed. Has it reached the realm of marrow cleansing?" Lu Chen was surprised and looked at Lu Yanran.
Lu Yanran's aura was obviously different from when he was in the body tempering realm, and had undergone tremendous changes. After a slight change of thought, Lu Chen guessed that Lu Yanran had succeeded in breaking through.
"If it weren't for the Purple Flower Fruit, we might not have been able to break through so quickly." Lu Yanran's eyes were filled with gratitude.
"Well, let's go and sign up." Lu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Okay!" Lu Yanran nodded lightly.
"Lu Chen is here!"
The steward at the registration office saw Lu Chen and said hello with a smile.
In fact, there were quite a few Lu family members who greeted Lu Chen along the way.
Lu Chen is now different from what he used to be. He is not only a senior pharmacist who can refine excellent marrow cleansing potions, but also a practitioner with the strength to defeat Wang Xiaotian who is in the middle stage of marrow cleansing.
Lu Chen's head seemed to have a huge halo of light. Everywhere he went, there were congratulations and compliments.
Of course, not everyone was polite to Lu Chen. The children of the Lu family who were close to the great elder, Lu Yongfang, looked at Lu Chen with raised eyebrows and looked uncomfortable. Some even made some sarcastic comments,
It seems that he is making his position clear.
Regarding these, Lu Chen just sneered.
Not convinced?
If you don't accept it, start a family competition.
"Yes, I'm here to sign up for the family competition." Lu Chen smiled and nodded at the steward.
"Okay!" The steward quickly registered Lu Chen's information in the register, and then handed Lu Chen a jade plaque engraved with Lu Chen's name.
On this jade plaque, there are not only the names of the people participating in the competition, but also a number. Lu Chen’s number is six, seven, eighty-nine.
Based on this number, more than 6,000 people had signed up before Lu Chen.
"Yanran, let's go to the martial arts field and wait." Then Lu Chen said to Lu Yanran again.
The competition is about to officially begin.
"Okay." Lu Yanran nodded.
Now, she is also in the realm of marrow cleansing. At the age of sixteen, she is in the realm of marrow cleansing, and her future is equally promising. If nothing unexpected happens in the future, it will not be a big problem to step into the innate realm. First-level cultivators generally only need to work hard, and
With enough resources, you can almost enter the innate realm.
One stick of incense takes much time to pass.
"Wow!"
Suddenly, an uproar broke out in the huge martial arts arena.
"The master of the house is here!"
"The Great Elder, the Second Elder, the Third Elder... they are all here too."
"Well, it seems that only the Eighth Elder is not here."
"The Eighth Elder probably won't be able to come back in time. I heard that the Eighth Elder is dealing with important matters in Tiandang City."
Around Lu Chen, the voices of some Lu family children reached Lu Chen's ears.
Tiandang City is the largest city in Tiandang Continent and is extremely prosperous.
Compared with Tiandang City, Qingfeng City is a completely small city. Two of the four major colleges in Tiandang Continent, including Four Leaf College, are within Tiandang City. It can be seen from this that Tiandang City’s
Extraordinary.
After the death of the family leader Lu Jinyun, except for the eighth elder, all the other elders were present.
There are nine elders in the Lu family, that is to say, eight elders attended the family competition in person.
The Lu family attaches great importance to the triennial family competition. In fact, among the four major families in Qingfeng City, there are selection competitions similar to the Lu family competition. Through such competitions, one can easily
It is better to select the best family children and then focus on cultivating these children with greater potential.
Although testing physical attributes is also a standard, no matter how good the attributes are, the disciple must be willing to work hard. Even with a pure physical attribute, if you don't work hard to cultivate, you will still achieve nothing.
"Quiet!"
Lu Jinyun's eyes scanned the entire audience slightly, his internal energy was working, and he shouted loudly.
The sound, like a bell and a bell, resounded over the entire martial arts arena.
The originally noisy crowd suddenly became quiet, all looking towards the high platform where the patriarch and others were.
"My Lu family will hold a family competition every three years. Now I announce that this family competition will officially begin."
"Before the selection, I will briefly read out the rules of the family competition to everyone."
"This family competition is divided into three stages: group stage, knockout round and finals. All registered children of the Lu family can participate in the group stage. There are a total of 6,800 children registered for this family competition.
All applicants will be divided into 340 groups."
Signing up to participate in the competition is also subject to conditions. There are restrictions on age and strength.
In terms of age, he must be a member of the Lu family between the ages of fourteen and twenty-four. In terms of strength, he must be below the innate realm.
There are 6,800 people divided into 340 groups. A group consists of twenty people.
"In each group, the top three Lu family children can advance to the knockout rounds."
"I hope that every child of the Lu family can perform well. Now, this Lu family competition begins."
Lu Jinyun's opening speech was relatively brief. He only said a few words and then announced the start.
After the patriarch Lu Jinyun fell, the grouping began immediately.
Every kid from the Lu family who had received a token from the Grand Competition had a group of boys appear on the jade token in their hands at this moment.
Everyone starts to check their group status.
"Brother Lu Chen, which group are you in?" Lu Yanran looked at her group, then turned to Lu Chen and asked.
"I'm in Group 122, what about you?" Lu Chen said.
"I am in the ninety-nine group. Fortunately, I am not in the same group as Brother Lu Chen." Lu Yanran raised the jade sign in her hand and said with a smile.
Lu Chen also smiled.
With Lu Yanran's strength, there will definitely be no problem in entering the knockout rounds.
For practitioners in the realm of marrow cleansing, unless their luck is extremely bad, they will basically enter the knockout round.
There are twenty people in a group, and three people in each group will enter the knockout round. A practitioner in the marrow-cleansing realm is in a group. As long as there are no more than three marrow-cleansing realm practitioners in this group, there will be almost no accidents.
.
In the Lu family, among the younger generation of disciples who have entered the marrow-cleansing realm, about one-thirtieth have entered the marrow-washing realm. In other words, on average, there is not even one practitioner in the marrow-washing realm in a group.
Of course, if you are really unlucky and happen to encounter multiple practitioners in the marrow-cleansing realm in your own group, you will have no choice but to accept it.
However, the probability of this is too low, and it will basically never happen. There are not many practitioners in the marrow-washing realm in the same group.
Because the allocation of groups is completely random and not artificially arranged.
"Group 1, come to my side!"
At this time, a steward in black used his internal energy and shouted loudly.
