The martial arts conference, which is held every three years, is the most prosperous time in the martial arts world. Regardless of the sect, as long as they have the strength, they can take the opportunity to become famous. Except for those who really cannot come, the sects that are qualified to participate will bring their proud disciples to take this opportunity to become famous.
.
I think back then, Bu Jingyun and Ling Tian, these amazing young martial arts heroes, became famous because of the martial arts competition. And Lan Jiuqing? He directly stepped on Bu Jingyun to become famous, and made Bu Jingyun, who came out of the martial arts competition, become famous.
The first master was unable to parry.
The day before the martial arts competition started, Lord Lingbao held a banquet in accordance with the usual practice to entertain all the masters and spectators from various countries and cities.
Every year, cities from various countries will send county magistrates who are close to the Sky Castle to participate. One is to tell these people in the world that the court is always watching them and not to do anything they shouldn't do. The other is to see if they can encounter them.
A master who is willing to serve the imperial court.
Of course, this is just a formality. In the peaceful and prosperous times, martial arts people who entered the court could only obey the mercy of the court, just like ordinary officials. Real masters were not willing to enter the court, and those with ordinary skills were not allowed by the court.
Disdainful.
Over the years, the Jianghu and the imperial court have maintained a delicate balance, until today's martial arts conference was held. With the appearance of the Nine Emperors Uncle in Tianqiong Castle, some sects have Jiujiu in their hearts.
Learn literature and martial arts and sell them to the emperor's family. If you can rely on the Nine Emperors Uncle and directly become the direct descendant of the Nine Emperors Uncle, that is better than gaining qualifications step by step. You may reach the sky in one step.
Someone was interested, but because of Jiuhuangshu's cold face, he didn't dare to take the initiative, so he put the idea on Feng Qingchen's head. Feng Qingchen followed Jiuhuangshu's words and accepted the courtesy but did not do anything. Anyway, everything was up to Jiuhuangshu.
The emperor's uncle has the final say.
At the banquet of Tianqiong Castle, the sects all arrived early, and the larger sects arrived a little later, while several sects arrived directly. For example, the Master of Xuanyue Palace, the Master of Xuanxiao Palace, and the Nine Emperors Uncle all arrived directly at Lingbao.
I came in only after being accompanied by someone.
As soon as these people arrived, the whole place was silent. I don't know who took the lead in shouting: "I've seen Uncle Nine Emperors."
Everyone came to their senses one after another, stood up one by one, held their hands towards Uncle Nine Emperors, and shouted: "I have seen Uncle Nine Emperors."
As for the people around Uncle Nine Emperors, they greeted him casually.
Jianghu people are not formal. Jiuhuangshu's status is not ordinary. It doesn't matter if they call him. Who can guarantee that he will not beg in front of Jiuhuangshu in the future? There is nothing wrong with selling well now.
Differential treatment!
Xuan Shaoqi and Palace Master Xuanyue were both used to it, but Lord Lingbao felt a little uncomfortable. Why did the Nine Emperors Uncle steal his limelight in his territory?
Apart from a better background than him, who else could compare to him? But it was this background that weighed on him all his life. Even if he struggled all his life, he could not compare to Xuan Shaoqi, who was born in Xuanxiao Palace, and who was born in Xuanxiao Palace.
The Royal Nine Emperors Uncle.
Ling Tian was jealous that Xuan Shaoqi was of a higher generation than him and had a higher status than him in the world. Likewise, Lord Ling could not accept that this man, who was the same age as his own son, was on par with him in the world, and even his own
You still have to ask and bow to him.
When he thought that Xuan Shaoqi, like him, had used the Demon Cult to establish his power in the world, Lord Lingbao felt even more uncomfortable. He had spent so much effort back then and failed to defeat the Demon Cult's chief teacher, but Xuan Shaoqi had to
Did it.
What a lucky young man!
Lord Ling's eyes flickered back and forth between Jiuhuangshu and Xuan Shaoqi. Although his movements were secretive, they could not hide them from Jiuhuangshu and Xuan Shaoqi. The two of them lowered their eyes and sneered in unison: Don't care about the dying person for the time being.
.
As the young master of Tianqiong Castle, Ling Tian's task today is to welcome guests. Everything was fine originally, but seeing Uncle Nine Emperors and Xuan Shaoqi appearing in the spotlight, Ling Tian felt very uncomfortable.
Same age, same amazing talent, but extremely different treatment. Thinking of what everyone had just said to praise him, Ling Tian felt extremely ironic.
Those who are young and promising and those who are rookies in martial arts are all jokes. Compared with Jiuhuangshu and Xuan Shaoqi, he is nothing.
The smile on Ling Tian's face was a little stiff, and the Nine Emperors Uncle smiled silently, but Xuan Shaoqi was not polite. He thought it was not exciting enough, so he stepped forward and saluted Ling Tian: "Shaoqi has met Uncle Master, how is everything going with Uncle Master?
Master and Master have been talking about Uncle Master, and Uncle Master should visit them more often when he is free."
Dare to use his identity as master uncle to suppress Qingchen, huh...
"So it turns out that Palace Master Xuan and Young Master Ling are uncle-nephew?" Not many people knew about this. When Xuan Shaoqi came out in public, many people became curious: "How come you haven't heard of it before?"
You have to listen to it before you know it. My nephew's identity and status are higher than mine. This is not something he is proud of for Ling Tian. Naturally, he won't go around shouting about it.
And Xuan Shaoqi never cared about this kind of thing. He had a lot of junior uncles, and one more and one less was no difference to him. Really, Ling Tian, this junior uncle, would have gone to Xuan Shaoqi if he hadn't gone to Feng Qingchen.
I almost forgot that this person existed.
The smile on Ling Tian's face became more and more unnatural, and Xuan Shaoqi explained with a smile on his face: "Uncle Shigong was a disciple of Master Shigong in his later years. At that time, the master's family was independent." In other words, the two people are not actually close to each other.
, and it was only because of his seniority that Xuan Shaoqi called Ling Tian "Uncle Master" out of politeness.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone understood. Ling Tian's face turned slightly green and he forced a smile. He was a smart man, so he naturally knew that Xuan Shaoqi was warning him not to take advantage of his identity.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Lord Lingbao stepped forward with a smile on his face and said: "Master Xuan, you are too impatient. If you two nephews want to reminisce about old times, you have to wait to sit down. You are still blocking the way of Uncle Nine Emperors." In one sentence.
Then he dragged Uncle Nine Emperors into the water.
If he really thought that he would be bullied if he didn't like to talk, his uncle raised his eyes and said coldly: "It doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry. Palace Master Xuan and Young Master Ling take their time when talking, I think it's quite interesting, uncle is just
The young master of Tianqiong Castle, my nephew is the master of the first palace of the Xuan family, when the time comes, will you follow the etiquette of the world, or the etiquette of the master?"
Uncle Jiuhuang's words were like a pot exploding, causing everyone to discuss enthusiastically: "Of course it is about etiquette in the world. Lord Lingbao would not dare to be presumptuous in front of Lord Xuan Palace. How could Young Lord Ling be so arrogant in front of Lord Xuan Palace?"
The airs of a senior."
"It's time to discuss the etiquette of the world. The Master of the Xuan Palace has an extraordinary status. We need to discuss the etiquette of the master and how the Master of the Xuan Palace will handle things in the future."
"Don't forget the gift of a master. Young Master Ling is Master Xuan's uncle. Palace Master Xuan should respect Young Master Ling."
"Just don't forget the etiquette. You have to treat me with the courtesy of a master uncle. How can I sit in this position? Palace Master Xuan is a person who can sit at the main table. Young Master Ling seems not qualified."
…
When everyone comes and goes, the same sentence remains: the etiquette of the master should not be forgotten, but in the world, etiquette and respect are still the main ones. After arriving at the master, seniority will be ranked according to the seniority of the master, otherwise it will be chaotic.
You must know Yi Xuan Shaoqi's status in the world, even Lord Lingbao has to be polite to him. Ling Shao mainly wants to show off his uncle's airs in front of Xuan Shaoqi, so why not slap his own father in the face.
The more excited the discussion became, the uglier Ling Tian's face became. He wanted to interrupt the discussion several times, but was stopped by Lord Ling every time.
Lord Ling looked at Uncle Nine Emperors and Xuan Shaoqi with a smile on his face, but there was a cold light in the depths of his eyes. He could be sure that these two people deliberately wanted to embarrass Ling Tian.
But even though he knew it was intentional, he could only endure it for the time being until the concierge loudly announced...
