The "Three Elders" of the Xuanwu Empire did not refer to three fixed people. In fact, just like Yaozi, the "Three Elders" were just a title.
As for the candidates for the "Three Elders", they were not appointed by the empire, nor were they selected by the six super families, nor were they qualified through some kind of competition. Instead, they were selected by an extremely special organization. As for
The name of this organization is the most reputable alliance on the mainland, the "Business Alliance".
The Merchant Alliance does not belong to any empire, and it has nothing to do with those aggressive superpowers. However, it would be inaccurate to say that the Merchant Alliance is not aggressive. The strength of the Merchant Alliance is mainly reflected in the size of its organization and its terrifying absorptive capacity.
.
The earliest business alliance is said to have originated from the land of chaos, and the earliest business alliance was also composed of extremely weak chambers of commerce and exchanges.
Those super aristocratic families, big forces, and sects all possess powerful military force. Even if they complete transactions across long distances, they don’t need to worry about being robbed. However, those small exchanges and auction houses will become similar to the Puppet Spirit Sect.
, the flesh and blood of forces like the Blood Wolf Gang.
These small trading houses and auction houses were forced to make a living, so they could only choose to join forces with each other for warmth, so the earliest business alliance gradually took shape in this form. However, this business alliance was originally established for survival, so
Its organization is relatively looser.
However, as this merchant alliance gradually grew, it gradually had an impact on the transportation and transactions of goods across the continent. As a result, some large trading houses and auction houses also began to request to join it, and were willing to comply.
All the rules originally formulated by the "Business Alliance".
In this way, the merchant alliance gradually emerged across the entire continent. Its loose structural characteristics made it less aggressive, but at the same time it made it extremely permeable, allowing the merchant alliance to spread on the road.
Spread quickly and continue to attract "allies".
For the final competition in selecting medicines in the Imperial Capital Competition, the "Three Elders" elected by the Merchant Alliance are invited to serve as the final judges every year.
Although the three old men appearing in front of them have ordinary cultivation, each of them has a high status in their respective exchanges. The most important thing is that the three people's eyesight in identifying the quality of various items is far beyond ordinary people.
In addition, the merchant alliance has always been known for its trustworthiness, so people also have great confidence in the "three elders" elected by the merchant alliance.
The three old men walked out of the main entrance of Emperor Mountain. It was said to be the main entrance, but in fact it was just a huge and magnificent cave, just because it was the entrance to Emperor Mountain.
The three old men walked slowly into the square, immediately causing a lot of noise and discussion. The three heads of the Yaosu and Wang family all looked extremely ugly. If they were to make a judgment now, it would undoubtedly be very passive for these three families.
The players from the Yao family were kicked out, and the remaining two might not be able to persist until the end, and Zuo Feng was almost ignored by them. If it weren't for Duan Yueyao, who also had a medicine sect, the three of them would not have accepted it anyway.
Let’s start making judgments now. At least under the previous alliance, Duan Yeyao’s medicine sect and the three major aristocratic families were already standing together.
Among the people with the same ugly faces was Onizuka, the head of the Gui family. His Gui family had been fully prepared before. Although he was not as good as Hua Zheng, Duan Yueyao and Yao Ling, he still had the confidence to fight with the other party.
One is longer and the other is shorter.
Moreover, he had clearly opposed the country's leader Xuan Hong before. If Xuan Hong's side finally got the imperial crystal, his end might not be far away.
But just when he was about to get angry, a voice came over. The voice very clearly told him to stabilize and not to act rashly. Now Onizuka alone has no ability to control the situation, even if he has 10,000 mistakes.
No matter what, I can only grit my teeth and endure it for the time being.
Inside and outside the arena, except for a few people who were still refining the medicine, everyone else had completely focused their attention on the "three elders" and the three people who had completed the process of refining the medicine.
The three old men wore different clothes, but the patterns on each one seemed to have a special meaning. They should each represent a force.
Three old men came to the table and each selected a player's pills to examine carefully. Each of these people observed it very carefully, almost placing their eyes on the crystal bottle to observe carefully.
The crystal bottle itself is transparent, and with the special treatment when carving it into the bottle, the items inside the bottle appear to be magnified from the outside, so that the details can be seen more clearly.
After the three old men carefully observed it, they walked away together and exchanged views on the pills made by others. In this way, after the three people moved twice, they also looked at the pills of the three people present.
Over and over.
After the three old men observed carefully, they gathered together and began to discuss. Xuan Hong, who was on the high platform, inadvertently lowered his head and looked at the three old men, with a slight smile in his eyes.
The atmosphere at this time was already extremely solemn, and with the arrival of Huang Tao from the Fengtian Dynasty with a group of masters, the atmosphere here became even more intense with the smell of gunpowder.
The three old men seemed to be arguing about the quality of the pills. The three old men were arguing with each other, and one of the old men had a slightly rosy face, and he seemed to be really angry.
The somewhat angry old man seemed to have a disagreement with the other two people. Finally, he waved his sleeves and was about to leave, but was held back by the other two old men.
Xuan Hong was not surprised at all when he saw the scene happening below, and he seemed to be very satisfied with the result.
Seeing that the old man who wanted to leave was forced to stay, everyone looked over here. One of the two old men who had unified their opinions suddenly said: "The competition for selecting medicines has already begun.
As a result, Huazheng’s pills among the three were of the highest quality, and this was our final evaluation result.”
As soon as the man's voice fell, the old man who was forced to stay was heard yelling angrily: "No, the judgment of the two of you has nothing to do with me, and this kind of judgment will never be made by our Duobao Pavilion.
Evaluation. The reputation of our Duobao Pavilion is above all else, I judge..."
Before the old man finished speaking, Xuan Hong on the high platform curled his lips with a sinister smile and spoke loudly, interrupting the old man's words: "Since the two people have agreed on the same opinion, the medicine for this year's competition is already available.
As a result, it was Hua Zheng, the painter's second son, who was the winner of the title of Yaozi."
The painter's Hua Yuan stared at Xuan Hong on the high platform, but there was no joy at all on his expression. Before yesterday, he had dreamed of letting his family members obtain the title of Yaoshi and help him get the Imperial Formation Crystal.
, enabling him to control the grand formation of the imperial capital in his own hands, allowing the painter to take the lead from now on.
But now, not only does he, the head of the painter family, have no rights, even the current painters have actually become Xuan Hong's seemingly powerful ones. Whether Hua Zheng obtains the title of Yaoshi or the Crystal of the Imperial Formation, his relationship with him is no longer the same.
It's not long, and he has a hunch that the painter's bad days are still to come.
Hua Zheng had a look of ecstasy on his face. As long as he could obtain the title of Yaozi, his reputation would soon spread throughout the land of Xuanwu. Even other empires would know that this new Yaozi was named Hua Zheng.
, is the elite among the elites on the Xuanwu Earth. As for the Imperial Formation Crystal, he did not dare to be tempted. He knew that if that thing fell into his hands, he and his family would be in trouble.
When Huang Tao heard Xuan Hong's announcement that Hua Zheng had won the title of Medicine Master, Huang Tao also beamed with joy and prepared to lead his people towards the square.
At this moment, several black shadows suddenly rushed out and flew towards their group. Because these black shadows themselves were not big, they were thrown out silently. Except for a limited number of people, they saw the items thrown out at certain locations.
, most people haven’t even reacted yet.
Huang Tao seemed to have been prepared. He was stunned for a moment before releasing his spiritual realm. The five powerful men in the God Refining Stage who followed him also released their spiritual realm. These people not only protected themselves, but also
The strong men around him protected him, because everyone had already guessed that what was coming was not simple.
The black shadow came with an astonishing force. In an instant, it fell into Huang Tao's group. At this time, most people had already seen clearly that they were bloody meat balls. The moment those meat balls flew over, there were no
No fluctuations were heard, just like lumps of dead meat.
But the moment they landed among the crowd, those meat balls exploded instantly. It was hard to imagine that the meat balls the size of a human fist contained an extremely large amount of flesh and blood. Each explosion was like a complete Warcraft.
The poison released after exploding in front of people.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss..."
There was a faint sound of insects in the flesh and blood, but except for the flesh scraps and blood drops, people could no longer see anything else.
Looking at the countless exploding meatballs in Huang Tao's team from a distance, Yao Xun's eyes shrank slightly, and he said coldly to himself: "I didn't expect that you are still studying this thing all these years. It seems so powerful now."
It is much stronger than before, but this thing still does not pose a threat to the strong ones in the God Refining Stage, but you just..."
Just when Yao Xun was sighing to himself, his words stopped abruptly before he finished speaking. He stared blankly at the scene in front of him, a little unable to believe what he saw.
I saw that after those blood droplets splashed on the warrior's body, they immediately seemed to possess powerful corrosive abilities, regardless of the obstruction of the spiritual energy, and could directly penetrate the flesh and blood of the powerful warriors in the Qi-receiving stage.
What shocked Yao Xun the most was that after those blood drops sprayed onto the spiritual defense of the strong men in the God Refining Stage, they began to slowly erode away. This scene shocked almost all the strong men in the God Refining Stage present.
Incomparable.
We must know that the important factor that makes the strong men in the God Refining Stage far better than ordinary warriors in both offense and defense is that the spiritual power itself is far more powerful than spiritual energy. If you want to deal with them, you can only rely on the same spiritual power.
But the blood droplets in front of them were clearly poisonous, and how could the poison cause damage to the spiritual realm? This shocked all the strong men in the God Refining Stage, and at the same time felt waves of fear spreading in their hearts.
