Chapter 17 Shouzhe Is Also a Boss (Please Vote for Me)

…

While he was talking, Jiang Zhencang had already entered the trial hall and began to put spiritual stones into a certain location on the wall with a painful expression.

soon.

The pearls inlaid on the dome of the trial hall lit up one by one. Bright light poured down, and the entire trial hall was illuminated in an instant.

At the same time, the walls around the trial hall also lit up with streams of light, colorful and gorgeous. The "cocoon cabins" standing against the wall also lit up one after another as if they were powered on.

The entire trial hall seemed to come alive at this moment.

Looking at this scene, Wang Shouzhe's heart trembled, and he actually felt like he was traveling through time.

He seemed to have seen the scene of a game competition in his previous life, and he seemed to have seen the officers of the Shenwu Army entering the cocoon cabin one after another, improving themselves in simulated training over and over again, growing rapidly, and then rushing to the battlefield one after another. Like a moth flying into a flame...

The chaotic thoughts and fragments made him confused for a moment.

"Okay, everyone, please sit down first~"

At this time, Jiang Zhencang's voice rang out.

When Wang Shouzhe came back to his senses, he saw that Jiang Zhencang had already filled up the spiritual stones. It was like he had unloaded a huge burden. He turned around and started to greet everyone to sit down: "Some people are still on the way. When everyone is here, we will officially Let’s start the trial. I’ll debug the instrument first and fine-tune the details.”

In order to ensure the fairness of the battle for the Holy Son, the entire trial process will be conducted under the supervision (spectators) of everyone. Elders from all peaks and veins can come and have a look if they want to.

In the trial hall, in order to prevent the [Item Refining Creations] used for the trial from being damaged, an isolation formation was specially set up to make the venue relatively clean and ready for use without cleaning.

For this battle of the Holy Son, Lingyun Holy Land also prepared a group of on-site reception staff. They are all young and potential core disciples from all walks of life.

Anyone who can be judged as a core disciple in Lingyun Holy Land is a genius-level figure under the age of 150. Although their cultivation levels are only in the realm of heaven and human beings, they are all calm and confident, with a vitality unique to young people.

It can also be seen from this that Lingyun Holy Land spares no effort in cultivating young echelons.

"Senior Wang, please come this way."

A young and beautiful female disciple walked up to Wang Shouzhe and saluted him.

She looked very young, probably no more than a hundred years old. She was also wearing the Lingyun Holy Land's standard women's Xuanwu uniform, and she looked very dashing.

The fabric used in this kind of clothing is woven from Lingzhi fiber produced in Qinghuang Valley. It is not as soft and comfortable as silk, but it is stronger and more durable, and its energy conductivity is also very good. It is very suitable for Xuanwu who need regular combat training. Monk.

The outfit is of light gold color, which looks both elegant and noble. There are three small golden swords embroidered on the hem and cuffs of the garment.

The golden sword is the symbol of Taiyi Jinyang lineage. Three handfuls represent that the owner of this piece of clothing is in the realm of heaven and human.

Obviously, this girl is very powerful, even compared to Fang Youan back then.

While speaking, the young girl glanced at Wang Shouzhe secretly, and there seemed to be a hint of admiration and curiosity for Wang Shouzhe in her confident eyes.

"Thank you girl."

Wang Shouzhe nodded slightly and followed her lead to the chairperson's seat in the first row and sat down.

Today's Wang Shouzhe is no longer the unknown little person before, but a big shot who can have a profound impact on all aspects of the entire country. Even in Lingyun Holy Land, he is treated as a very important guest of honor.

"Senior Wang, this is your spiritual fruit plate and spiritual tea." The young girl continued to take out some fruit plate snacks that had been prepared from the storage ring. "If you have any special needs, you can always ask for them."

"Thank you, girl. By the way, are you a disciple of Taiyi Jinyang's lineage?" Wang Shouzhe asked politely and casually.

"Returning to the seniors, the junior is called Xu Chuchu. He is seventy-six years old this year. He is not yet married. He was born in the Xu family of the fifth rank of Guilong. He worshiped Master Xuanjue of the Taiyi Jinyang lineage and practiced Taiyi Gengjin Sword Technique. Part 1 , I was just promoted to the Heavenly Realm two years ago." Xu Chuchu answered a series of questions quickly, with a hint of shyness in his eyes.

"..."

Wang Shouzhe was speechless for a moment.

I just asked casually, where are you going to register your household registration? Alas~ Handsome people have too many troubles, and they tend to attract bees and butterflies wherever they go.

However, when he saw that such a young generation had already begun to make a name for themselves in the Holy Land, he couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.

Time really flies by. He, Wang Shouzhe, has already reached 200, and unknowingly he has become a senior in the eyes of others.

"Senior, I heard that during the battle between the emperor and his son more than seventy years ago, you single-handedly overturned the sky in Guilong City, dominated the situation, and finally decided the world with one fell swoop!" Xu Chuchu couldn't help the look of admiration in his eyes, "Even our wife Gong Yangce, the legendary master uncle of Yijinyang lineage, was defeated by you and was expelled to the Immortal Dynasty for reflection."

This...Gongyang Ce is also your uncle after all. Do you think he was so excited when he lost? Is it really okay?

Wang Shouzhe glanced not far away: "I guess your original task of entertaining people was not me."

"How do you know, senior?" Xu Chuchu was astonished. "I was born in Guilong City and grew up listening to your stories. Moreover, our Guilong Xu family also gained a lot in the process of developing the Dala Desert. Benefits, the elders of the family often praise you for your greatness. This time I heard that you were also coming to watch the ceremony, so I specially changed the reception task with Senior Sister Zi Ning of the Liuli Ming Palace."

"Because the master of Jinyang Peak, Master Langya, is staring at me as if he wants to eat me alive. He is probably afraid that I will abduct you." Wang Shouzhe smiled and greeted Master Langya who was not far away.

Master Langya's face darkened, but he still gave Shouzhe a gift in return.

Although he is the palm master of Taiyi Jinyang lineage in the Holy Land and the master of Jinyang Peak, in terms of influence and status in the entire Daqian, he may not be as good as Wang Shouzhe.

Therefore, Master Langya cannot show off in front of Wang Shouzhe, even if he actually dislikes Wang Shouzhe very much, he has to pretend when he should.

Xu Chuchu was so frightened that her face turned pale, her neck shrank, she took two steps back and did not dare to say anything more.

Master Langya is her master...

After all the trouble, Wang Shouzhe felt much more relaxed.

Although compared with the crisis-ridden and long-lasting battle between the emperor and the son, the battle for the emperor and son in Lingyun Holy Land is a bit sloppy, but no matter what kind of trial method it is, as long as there are reasonable rules, the peerless genius will win in the end The probability must be the highest.

Moreover, he does not think that his daughter Wang Liyao will lose to anyone in terms of overall quality.

After all, she is the daughter who has been taught by himself, and no one knows Li Yao's abilities better than him.

Not to mention anything else, Longzuo Academy has been prospering under Li Yao's management in recent years, and its ranking among the seven academy palaces has risen from fifth to third.

If you give her some more time, it's not impossible to rise to the top.

To put it ten thousand steps back, even if Yaoer cannot obtain the status of saintess and cannot inherit the Lingxu Book, she is not afraid.

First of all, there is still an immortal palace to explore. With her peerless talents, she is quite hopeful that she can win the inheritance.

Secondly, there is still the Shenwu Dynasty's middle and senior military officer academy that can make a fuss.

The worst plan is to take Wang Anye to the southern wilderness or the depths of the northern wilderness to see if he can get lucky and dig out some relics of Lingxu's inheritance.

No matter what, there are always more solutions than difficulties.

Wang Shouzhe felt much relieved when he thought of An Ye.

An Ye is now ninety years old, reaching an age where he can serve as the backbone of the family.

This time, he planned to ask An Ye and Zong Chang to go together for the mission of searching for the ruins of the Blood Lord's lair. Zong Changnai is the family's all-rounder in investigation, and Anye has always had good luck. With the cooperation of the two, there may be some strange reactions.

Let’s not mention the gossip for now.

In this moment, the peak masters, palace masters, and valley masters of the nine veins of the Holy Land all sat down in the chairman's position.

They and Wang Shouzhe were sitting in the same row, and they were the guests of honor in this battle for the Holy Son.

In addition, behind them all followed a young man with an impressive appearance. Each one of them was very energetic and had a unique style. They were obviously the best descendants of each lineage.

Because the Holy Son is not particular about his origin, anyone who is a genius of Lingyun Holy Land can participate, and there is no limit on the number of people. Moreover, because of the special trial mechanism, it is not like the battle between emperors and sons in the royal family, where a strong lineage can have an absolute advantage. Instead, it purely depends on personal quality, which is very fair and just.

As for the royal family, they generally do not directly express their opinions in this process.

But if a great genius from the Holy Land can get strong support from the royal family, they will get more abundant cultivation resources, more training opportunities, and even use the treasures collected in the royal treasury to improve their qualifications, so as to compete in the battle for the Holy Son. establish an advantageous position.

This is what Jiang Zhencang did back then.

However, this battle for the Holy Son is quite special. Three of the quasi-saints participating in the battle are from the Wang family, which suddenly makes the situation unpredictable.

It is also because of this that before this battle for the Holy Son has even begun, a storm has begun to turmoil secretly, and all factions are working hard secretly, thinking of ways to cultivate their own genius.

For example, Master Yunyang began secretly cultivating Wang Lici early on, and Master Tianhe obviously did the same as he began cultivating Li Yao's successor a long time ago.

If they could do this, how could there not be some sneaky moves in other branches? In short, there is still room for everyone to show their abilities within their abilities.

"Yunyang, I heard that your Li Ci is a great genius?" Master Tianhuo, who had red hair and a voice as loud as a bell, chatted with Master Yunyang, "You are really envious of our Nanming Lihuo lineage."

"Haha~ Your Zhen Shicong is not bad either." Master Yunyang was in a happy mood, with a flush on his face, "That kid has been very close to Li Ci and the others recently. He is a smart kid. Maybe he can counterattack this time. .”

"No, that kid is just joining in the fun." Master Tianhuo waved his hands and said with a smile, then asked curiously, "I heard that your family, Li Ci, practices the first part of Liu Li Ming Wang's true method? Why don't you accept Tai Yi? The true inheritance of Jin Yang’s lineage?”

"Haha~ The Taiyi Jinyang lineage is controlled by Lang Ya, and that guy likes to target me the most. If Li Ci is exposed to him in advance, he will definitely use all despicable means to snatch her away." Master Yunyang sneered, "I must guard against this move."

Not far away, Master Langya's face was so dark that it was about to drip.

Damn Yunyang, when and where did I target you?

"Are you and Langya still having conflicts?" Master Tianhuo said in surprise, "Not long ago, didn't you already abandon your previous feud and join forces to put pressure on Holy Master Jiang, asking him to start the battle for the Holy Son in advance?"

"What is a conflict? We have a lot of hatred and sworn hatred between me and Langya old dog." Master Yunyang waved his sleeves and said, "Before, it was for the sake of Li Ci's future that I had to compromise with that Langya old dog. Everything was just. It’s just a stopgap measure.”

Master Langya was so dazed that he didn't fall down.

Not long ago, when we invited him to put pressure on the master, the senior brother was stronger than the younger brother. Now that everything has happened, from Langya that guy, to Langya that dog, and then to Langya the old dog, the change is too fast.

Gong Yangce, who was behind Master Langya, was also stunned.

Master, what grudges do you have between him and Uncle Yunyang? The relationship between the two has turned out to be so bad!

"That's all, Yunyang has been this kind of virtuous since he was a child. If you really argue with him on every matter, your life will be shortened for hundreds of years if you don't keep it together." Master Langya looked at his nose and heart, looking at himself and being as self-conscious as ever. Under hypnosis, Yunyang turned a blind eye and listened but not heard.

People from all walks of life are taking their seats one after another.

"Hey, isn't this the head of the Shouzhe family? Your Wang family is the big winner today. You have the fourth place to participate in the battle for the Holy Son." A man with a rough appearance and an extremely perfect body greeted him with a smile.

This man is naturally Mingcheng Zhenren from the Liuli Mingwang Palace lineage.

Behind him, there was an extraordinary-looking woman with her hands behind her back, wearing a goose-yellow Xuanwu costume.

This woman has a domineering and majestic look that ordinary women don't have. Who is Wang Luoqiu if not Wang Luoqiu?

"I have met senior Mingcheng." Wang Shouzhe stood up and saluted, looking at Luo Qiu with a slightly startled look, "Is it possible that Luo Qiu also wants to participate in the battle for the Holy Son?"

He was filled with doubts. Could it be that Luo Qiu had become an unparalleled genius unknowingly?

"My Luoqiu is just a second-class bloodline of the great genius, and participating in the battle for the Holy Son is just joining in the fun." Master Mingcheng is humble, but also has an air of unpredictability.

But behind him, Wang Luoqiu, who looked like an "empress", had a hint of embarrassment between her heroic brows. She had already told her Master and Grandmaster that even the most prodigy's chance of winning was very low.

But they didn't believe in evil, so they had to ruthlessly gather enough resources to go to Baibao Pavilion to get an eighth-grade elixir [Elixir of Rebirth] that improved her bloodline qualifications, and promoted her from a second-class bloodline to a first-class one!

The elixir of rebirth has an extremely overbearing effect on bloodline enhancement. Even though she has entered the Purple Mansion Realm and her bloodline level has reached the level of the Holy Body, she still suffered a lot under the protection of her master before she was promoted from the second-level great genius to the highest level. Class A.

Wang Luoqiu was not afraid of suffering, but she was afraid that her master would use her first-class bloodline as a trump card and create some mystery in front of her fourth brother, which would make her face dry.

And she couldn't tell her master that her niece and grand-niece were already extraordinary, right?

"Luo Qiu." Wang Shouzhe encouraged, "No matter what the result is, just show your style. Fourth brother believes that sooner or later you will be able to follow the path of God."

"I know, brother, fourth brother..." Wang Luoqiu suddenly became energetic.

After Master Mingcheng and Wang Shouzhe "showed off" to their disciples, they left and began to get close to other Masters.

"It's really lively this time." Jiang Zhencang sat in the middle of the chairman's seat and looked around, "I didn't expect that the number of people participating in the battle for the Holy Son this time was far more than mine. I'm afraid there will be one It’s a fight between dragons and tigers.”

"Holy Master Jiang." Master Tianlang on the side thought about it and was quite emotional, "I am afraid that Xuandan Pavilion and Zixiao Tianleifeng will not participate this time. After all, the master of Xuandan Pavilion is an assistant in alchemy training. No chance of winning..."

Tianlang Zhenren is a middle-aged man with a gentle temperament. He is the nephew of Master Tianhe. He is only about a thousand years old. He is exactly the Master of Zhangmai of Tianshui lineage.

However, as soon as Master Tianlang finished speaking, Master Yuandan of the Xuandan Pavilion came leading his young disciple: "Who said we won't participate?"

As an alchemist, Master Yuan Dan has been dealing with alchemy furnaces all year round. He has a slightly cold personality, but his temperament also has a taste of being out of the world. He is a middle-aged handsome guy who is not inferior to Master Langya in the slightest.

The male disciple following him had a rounder appearance and looked very wealthy. The loose white and red Xuandan lineage standard loose robe worn on him had the effect of a tight suit, making people wonder if it would burst if he was not careful.

This male disciple is the heir of Xuandan Pavilion's lineage, so he can't guarantee it.

Bao Bucheng came from a fifth-grade family in Guilong City. He showed excellent alchemy talent since he was a child, so he was sent to the Holy Land for further study when he became an adult. Nowadays, he is already one of the mainstays of the Xuandan lineage in the Holy Land. Even some elders who are much older than him are not as strong as him in alchemy.

"I've met you real people, I've met Holy Master Jiang." Bao Bucheng greeted him cheerfully, his chubby figure trembling with the movements, looking even more happy.

"No, you want to participate too?" Jiang Zhencang looked at him sideways, "Although the battle for the Holy Son is not just about the level of force, it cannot be without force, right?"

"The most important thing is to participate. The most important thing is to participate." Bao Bucheng smiled as if he was worshiping a little Maitreya Buddha. "What if I have a good chance and get lucky and succeed?"

"You're not a kid, what are your plans if you're lucky enough to become a Holy Lord?" Master Tianlang didn't take the kid's words to heart at all and asked casually with a smile.

In his mind, Junior Sister Li Yao is the strongest king. Haven't you seen that Uncle Tianhe has already gone into debt in order to train Junior Sister Li Yao? Even he, Tianlang, had long been impoverished.

"I'm going to become the Holy Lord." Bao Bucheng smiled happily, "I'll take all of you, a redundant department that only knows fighting and not production, and send them to the frontier to open up wasteland and make money."

Purely in terms of making money, Qinghuang Valley ranks first, and Xuandan Pavilion also ranks first. In terms of pure fighting, Xuandan Pavilion ranks second to last, and Qinghuang Valley also ranks second to last...

Therefore, these two departments are particularly profitable, but are not very good at fighting. The most annoying departments are those departments that fight with each other but are so poor that they have to scrape together to buy an eighth-grade elixir.

If it weren't for the Holy Land's unified allocation of most resources, people like the Taiyi Jinyang lineage would have been starved to death.

"Hahaha, little fat guy is ambitious! We all like you."

Master Tianlang, Master Mingcheng, etc. didn't care at all, they smiled happily than anyone else.

So what if they can't make money? Anyway, they have Qinghuang Valley, Xuandan Pavilion, and half of Nanming Lihuo Cave to support them. They just need to concentrate on improving their combat effectiveness. When it comes to a critical moment, wouldn't it be up to them, Xuanwu monks with strong combat capabilities, to step forward?

By the way, Nanming's Lihuo lineage has its own tool-refining industry, but its technology is not as good as the third-grade Gongye clan's tool-refining workshop, and its competitiveness is much lower. However, because the Holy Land also masters some unique technologies, it can earn a lot of money. The money is actually quite a lot.

"Since it is impossible to participate in the battle for the Holy Son, it seems that among the nine veins of the Holy Land, Zixiao Tianleifeng will not participate." Master Tianlang said.

"Zixiao Tianlei Peak requires thunder attribute mutant blood, and the number of people is small. Even Zixiao Zhenren has just broken through the magical power realm, so it is difficult to find high-quality thunder successors."

Everyone knows the situation of the Zixiao lineage, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with them not sending disciples to participate in the battle for the Holy Son. It is just a pity after all.

The battle for the Holy Son is a rare opportunity for training. Even if you cannot win the position of the Holy Son, there are actually many intangible benefits for the participants.

In the midst of discussions.

Suddenly, a thunderous shout came from outside the trial hall: "Who said we don't have successors?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a burly middle-aged man walked in at a fast pace.

He was wearing a blue-purple outfit, with a sword hanging from his waist, and he looked very heroic.

Compared with other real people in the Holy Land, he looks much younger, and he has a bit of high-spiritedness. His aura is like a sword in a sheath, ready to go, as if ready to be unsheathed at any time. Killing enemies is normal.

This person is naturally a new powerful person in the magical power realm from the Zixiao lineage in the Holy Land, Zixiao Zhenren.

When the people present heard Master Zixiao's words, they all cast surprised glances at him.

"Feihong, come here. Say hello to everyone." Master Zixiao was already prepared and waved behind him with a confident look.

"Yes, Master."

Following the sound, a figure walked in from the door.

He was a thin young man, dressed in blue and purple clothes, with an arrogant and cold temperament. His whole person was like a bladed sword, and he seemed out of place compared to the noisy atmosphere around him.

But he didn't care. He held his sword and saluted everyone present, and said respectfully: "Dugu Feihong, I have met Holy Master Jiang, I have met all my uncles and uncles, and I have met all my brothers and sisters."

Everyone looked sideways.

He never expected that Zixiao’s lineage would actually have candidates for the Holy Son.

You must know that although Zixiao's lineage has strong fighting power, it is difficult to find successors because of the extremely high requirements for bloodline compatibility in inherited skills. As a result, Shentong Zhenren once ceased generation and has been keeping a low profile in Lingyun Holy Land for many, many years.

That is to say, it was only after Master Zixiao successfully advanced to the magical realm more than a hundred years ago that he became a little more high-profile.

Who would have thought that the Zixiao lineage, which has always been difficult to inherit, and even Master Shen Tong has only just completed, has secretly cultivated a successor to the great genius of the Zifu realm?

The key is that before today, no news about Zixiao's lineage had been leaked. It seems that Master Zixiao has a very big plan.

"Zixiao? How did you do this? Haven't you been in seclusion? Even I don't know about this." Master Yunyang was curious and afraid. He and Zixiao were "friends", but Zixiao was Xiao had been in seclusion to attack the magical realm, which allowed him to escape.

"Haha, Yunyang, didn't you also secretly train Li Ci?" Master Zixiao couldn't help but feel proud, "My apprentice comes from a small and remote family. He was born on a night of thunder and lightning, and I accidentally discovered him His bloodline qualifications are very suitable for the [Purple Sky Thunder True Method], so in order to make him famous in the battle for the Holy Son, we specially asked him to be under the name of Junior Sister Yaoguang of Qing'an Academy and cultivate him secretly."

A remote little aristocratic family? Your surname is Dugu? Night with thunder and lightning? Junior Sister Yaoguang? Cultivated in secret?

There were a series of question marks on everyone's foreheads. These key elements look nothing individually, but when connected one by one... everyone's expressions suddenly became exciting.

Even Jiang Zhencang couldn't help but look at Zi Xiao and then Dugu Feihong with questioning eyes.

Could it be that Zi Xiao secretly gave birth to an heir of the thunder bloodline with Master Yaoguang, a junior sister of the same bloodline, because it was too difficult to find one?

This kind of thing has not been done before.

…
