Chapter 478: Eating and living together, disputes begin
"I choose the fifth floor!"
Mo Xinxiang's cold voice sounded in the meeting hall.
No one is surprised, this is an inevitable choice.
Mo Xinxiang also showed her strength explicitly or covertly in the previous exchanges. Even if she is not the strongest among the eight, she is still among the best.
Being able to get first place is no problem, at least in Tie Tang's opinion.
Except for the fifth floor, which controls absolute power, three of the remaining four floors need to live with other people, which makes the scene subtle again.
There were eight people present, including three women. Mo Xinxiang won the crown, leaving two.
For them, the difference between men and women is almost nonexistent.
But that's outside.
Here.
Everyone is now a mortal.
All kinds of needs that were tolerated and ignored in the past will become extremely acute after the strength is sealed.
"Next, it's you, what should I call you? Please make your choice within a stick of incense!"
Huang walked up to a middle-aged man who looked like an immortal and extremely elegant, which caught Tie Tang's attention.
This person's name is rather weird, he calls himself "Dahong", but Tie Tang doesn't know whether it is true or not.
The reason why I became interested in this person is because Dahong was one of the people who had murderous intentions towards him or everyone during the reclamation.
And this person, like Mo Xinxiang, is one of the three people who has not been swayed by all the previous words.
His strength should be extremely strong, ranking second, which also did not surprise Tie Tang.
"I choose the fourth floor." Dahong's voice was extremely thick and full of magnetism. Putting aside the previous hostility, this person was one of the best in Tie Tang's opinion.
The other person is Pan Xuan, who has a luxurious temperament!
Although he failed to obtain the fifth level, the fourth level is still in a relatively high position. Dahong's choice is reasonable.
And just when the remaining people thought that the next choices would proceed normally, something happened to the third person.
The one with the third option is Pan Xuan!
He did not make an immediate choice like the previous two, but instead pulled Tie Tang ten feet away.
"Brother Tie, have you ever considered living with Pan?"
Obviously, because of the previous fair distribution proposal, Tie Tang, who was the first to comply, became Pan Xuan's target.
But Tie Tang knows his own abilities.
Regarding the reclamation of wasteland, he was not serious at first and felt that it could not be completed. In the end, he relied on mechanical repetition, which also greatly delayed the reclamation time.
Among the eight people, Tie Tang knew that he must be at the bottom, probably the last one.
He spread his hands helplessly: "I'm afraid we don't have this fate."
Pan Xuan was stunned for a moment, then patted him on the shoulder: "Try it!"
Panxuan then chose the third floor, giving Tie Tang a chance, because the next person would definitely choose the fourth floor.
Sure enough.
The fourth person announced by the emperor was a woman with a fairy-like temperament and beautiful face. She called herself Liu Qinghan and chose the fourth level without hesitation.
At this time, there are four people left in the field who have no choice, namely Tie Tang, fat Yuan Geng, Lu Xiuzhen, who is as white as a ghost, and the last woman who is taciturn and looks cute and cute, just like the girl next door.
"I choose the third floor!" Lu Xiuzhen walked up to Pan Xuan, while Pan Xuan glanced at Tie Tang and said nothing.
"It's over, it's over, I won't be eighth, right? I don't want to sleep on the first floor." The fat man was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, walking back and forth restlessly.
At this time, the emperor walked in front of him.
The fat man jumped for joy and boomed three feet high: "The sixth is me, the sixth is me, hahahaha, I choose the second floor."
There are only two people left.
Tie Tang and the last woman.
One of them will go to the first floor, which not only means the worst living environment, but also the least food and the least power.
Tie Tang took a deep breath and waited quietly for the emperor's decision. He was also a little uneasy, as if he had returned to the time when he first came to this world.
Bang!
The steps stopped.
Huang looked at Tie Tang strangely.
Among the eight people, only Tie Tang gave him a very strange feeling, and he couldn't explain why.
"What's your name here?"
"Tietang."
The emperor's differentiated question to him made the other seven people cast their gazes.
"One stick of incense, you choose, but you don't have much choice."
"I choose the second floor!"
No need to hesitate.
It is impossible for Tie Tang to choose the first level for a woman he does not know.
"Okay!"
The emperor turned to look at the last person: "Then you are on the first floor. I will invite everyone to move in next. At the same time, I have prepared corresponding levels of check-in food for each floor.
This is the first and last time.
Gentlemen, please!"
The nine people came to the middle of the vines in the center of the meeting hall. As the nine strange flowers rose, everyone came to the first floor.
On top of the thin pile of thatch, there was a copper basin containing a palm-sized pancake, and next to it was a one-foot-sized vermilion gourd.
This is the food on the first floor, visible to everyone.
Tie Tang immediately realized...
People at higher levels can see the food of people at lower levels, but people at lower levels have no idea what the people above are eating.
There is no doubt that this creates more conflicts among everyone, and at the same time makes it easier for the abandoned ones to act.
The cute and cute girl next door, with her small cherry mouth, walked into the first floor with great grievance.
But the remaining seven people, including Tie Tang, were not moved at all.
No one who can come here is simple.
That pitiful and pitiful appearance may be an old devil outside who kills without blinking an eye.
Tie Tang and Fatty stopped on the second floor. As the strange flowers rose, they had no way of knowing what was happening above.
"It's okay, we have meat and fruits." The fat man walked to the front of the food with a smile on his face, picked up his portion, and stuffed it directly into his mouth.
Compared with the dry, hard and thin pancakes on the first layer, the food on Tietang's layer is much better.
A beef bone as big as a fist, a pork belly two fingers wide, two pears, and two pancakes can basically meet your needs.

Tie Tang didn't think much and went up to wolf down the food with the fat man, quickly eating all the food into his belly.
They were so tired and so hungry that they could only eat half full with this little food.
The fat man picked his teeth with beef bone scraps, sat on the ground and looked up: "I don't know what they eat, they should be much better than us, right?"
"No difference!" Tie Tang said calmly.
"Why?"
"It's very simple. Today is the first day. All of us were in full strength before this. The amount of food we had on the first day actually has no impact at all.
And there will be food at noon tomorrow, so everyone will be able to eat to their fullest.
The key is to look at noon the day after tomorrow. From then on... it will be the real test."
"That's right, forget it, I don't want to worry about it so much. Let's wash up first. I've sweated so much today and my body stinks to death."
Except for the first floor, the other four floors have corresponding bathrooms, which is not too embarrassing.
After Tie Tang and his wife finished rinsing each other, they lay on the soft bed and began their own mental battle.
If you want to win in the end, you must know all your opponents. The six people who can live together now will undoubtedly be one step ahead and get some clues that others don't know.
"Are you a deserted person? In fact, I guessed it." The fat man put his hands on his pillow and hit him hard.
Tie Tang responded calmly: "Where's the evidence? You can't just rely on your feelings, right?"
"I believe that other people will think that you are an outcast because you don't seem to know the secret of eternal life.
Based on this alone, you and the seven of us are completely different, and this may be the flaw of the Abandoned One."
When the emperor was stating the blessing of heaven, Tie Tang revealed his true side and was immediately captured by the other seven.
And his exposure point is very strange!
If a person does not know that the ultimate purpose of this test is to obtain eternal life, how did he get here?
Why did he come?
The seven people came here with a very clear purpose, but Tie Tang didn't. No, it wasn't even that he didn't have one, but he didn't know it at all.
This is very strange, very strange.
Fatty can’t figure it out at all.
If Tie Tang is classified as one abandoned by heaven, then everything seems to be explained.
"The abandoned ones should have more information than others so that they can better integrate into this place. I obviously don't.
On the contrary, in my opinion, you are the one abandoned by heaven!"
Tie Tang did not explain his reasons, but directly launched an attack.
The fat man laughed and wanted to see how Tie Tang saw him, so he followed his words and asked.
"Where have I been exposed?"
"Today is the day when the houses are divided for the first time, so you did not destroy it, but you still contributed to the split of the eight-person group.
What you said before about breaking the jar can easily cause other people to have a similar mentality, thus affecting everyone.
Isn’t this what Tian Qi Zhi wants to achieve?
If you are not, then I can only say that you are too stupid."
A trace of anger flashed in the fat man's eyes, but it calmed down instantly: "I think you are a little impatient, but I am a tolerant person and will not argue with you.
We are now on the same front, should we form an alliance first and deal with others together?
This way we can at least get to the top two and then have a showdown at the end!"
Tie Tang's eyes flashed, and he had a guess about Fatty's status outside.
Fatty and himself should be the two or three weakest among these eight people.
Some of the previous conversations are evidence.
The speed of reclamation is also one of the supporting evidence.
Coupled with the words of Fatty's alliance now, Tie Tang became more determined in this idea.
He said slowly: "We still don't know what the elimination method will be, and we don't know what we will face next, let alone how much authority the fifth level has.
Judging from the current situation, if someone in the eight-person group can form an alliance of four or even five people, that would be the best choice, and they can even control the first half of the test.
An alliance of groups will definitely benefit more than a single person.
But.
I think...this is impossible!"
The fat man became excited after hearing this. He sat up and asked, "Why?"
Tie Tang raised three fingers: "There are three reasons!"
"First: There are too many unknown factors, and the numerical advantage may not affect elimination or survival."
"Second: Assuming that numerical advantage can manipulate the test, it is also likely to affect everyone's score in the test.
This is a test to determine the only winner. Relying on team victory to avoid elimination will definitely affect personal evaluation."
"Third: Even if the above two can be implemented, this one cannot be shaken!"
The fat man was scratching his head: "What is the third one?"
Tie Tang solemnly said: "The heart of the strong is the way to invincibility! You must be able to feel it more or less. Among the other six people, at least two or three are far more powerful than others.
And the strong ones who can pass many tests and come here may be the ones who dominate one place outside, or even be invincible in the world.
Let them form alliances with others to achieve final victory, but they will not be willing.
I am invincible, even if I have to contend with the whole world with my own strength, I will not frown at all.
This is the mentality of other people!"
After Tie Tang finished speaking, a flush of shame appeared on Fatty's face, and he pretended to turn his head to look at the bright moonlight outside the window.
"What about you, will you form alliances with others?"
"I won't!" Tie Tang categorically rejected.
"Even if you are eliminated by others because of this?"
Tie Tang resolutely said: "I will not lose!"
As the founder of the orthodox path, Tie Tang's heart is not open to outsiders, so he can deeply understand the thoughts of other strong people.
This is a test where individuals strive to be first and determine the only winner.
To let him join forces with others means that he thinks he is inferior to others, and is inherently inferior in his heart, which is equivalent to losing before he even fights.
The truly strong man walks the path of invincibility!
On a road, there will only be one person, and there will be no other people walking side by side.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
If so.
That means you are not strong enough, you are not far enough, and you are not invincible.
Being invincible in terms of strength may still take time to grow.
But to be mentally invincible must be the confidence established early on, otherwise Tie Tang would not be where he is today.
The long night passed by just in the conversation between the two.
After midnight.
The two of them, who had been exhausted for a long time, finally couldn't bear it anymore and each quickly fell asleep.
The next day, ugly time.
Tie Tang and Fatty have both gotten up, and the occasional noise coming from the central vines also proves that the other six are ready to go.
The next hour is noon, which is also the time to distribute food.
Whether everyone completed the reclamation task yesterday will be revealed soon.
Tie Tang meditated next to two green vines, trying to get as many clues as possible.
Half an hour later.
From the bottom floor came the sound of strange flowers rising into the sky.
The emperor's figure and a large table of delicious food appeared in Tie Tang's field of vision, and quickly passed through the second floor.
He didn't have time to see clearly what was there, but he confirmed that there was something to eat today.
Eight people all completed their tasks yesterday.
Tie Tang held his chin in his hands and thought to himself.
"My true strength is undoubtedly at the bottom among the eight people, and may not be as good as Fatty.
Then why was I not eighth yesterday?
Is it that the person below is deliberately hiding his strength, or is she the abandoned one who went to the first floor specifically to hide herself?"
When strong people compete, the first thing they observe is the other strong people. Instead, they won’t pay much attention to the weak.
And here is the test for eternal life!
In the eyes of the other seven people, each one may have strengths or weaknesses, but there must be a bottom line. At least they are all extremely strong on the outside.
The bottom line...
I’m afraid that even immortals and gods are not the starting point!
At least one must have the strength of a Taoist master, or even a God Emperor or an Immortal Emperor, to be able to go through many tests and come here.
But Tie Tang knows that his strength is only in the Earth Wizarding Realm. Compared with others, he is undoubtedly weak.
Just like that, there are still people lining up behind me.
The actions of the girl next door on the first floor could deceive the other six people, but she could never deceive Tie Tang.
"She can't be weaker than me, unless she also came here with the Dream Heart Sutra, which is even more impossible.
Either she was hiding her clumsiness or had an accident, so she was ranked eighth."
Originally, Tie Tang thought that the woman on the first floor had not completed the reclamation requirements, so she was ranked behind him.
However, the appearance of food negated his speculation.
"Then the specific reason why she is eighth..."
Winter!
The bell is ringing.
Qihua and Huang brought the remaining food to the second floor.
"You two can choose whatever you want!"
With his usual fake smile, Huang asked Tie Tang and Yuan Geng to choose their food very politely.
But the fat man got mad.
"It's a stupid choice. You won't even leave any soup for us. OK, OK, you want to play like this, right?"
What was placed in front of the two of them was exquisite silver tableware with dragons and phoenixes carved on it. However, there was only some vegetable juice and debris left on it, and there was no food.
Tie Tang also frowned. He didn't expect the people on the upper floors to be so cruel and wouldn't even leave any food for them.
Who could it be?
Was it the people in power on the fifth floor who plundered everything from the source, or those on the fourth and third floors?
