The Path Toward Heaven

Chapter 789

At this time, the selection and assessment of the new priestess is officially over.

Mr. Xia once again stood in the middle of the hall, and asked all the guests and the people of the entire planet to wait for a while, and the final list of three will be announced soon.

Zhong Lizi's spirit was no longer tense, and the drunkenness continued to surge, and what followed was...

"Wow!"

Seeing the red-haired girl who kept vomiting into the celadon bowl, the people in the sacrificial hall were in an uproar.

The TV station immediately switched the screen to ensure that the audience in front of the TV did not see this scene, otherwise the food sales of the entire planet would be affected today, and the owner of the barbecue stall in the night market in the underground street might scold her again.

Jiang Yuxia hurried over to take care of her, wiped her face, and stroked her back to comfort her.

Huaxi's small face was full of worry, and she wanted to go over to help, but she was also drunk, unable to sit still, fell directly to the ground, and began to sleep soundly.

Naturally, Mo Zhi didn't move. Looking at this scene, the corners of his lips were slightly raised again, revealing a smug smile.

Originally, she was feeling a little uneasy, but now among the ten or so girls who remained in the arena, Jiang Yuxia, Huaxi, she and Zhong Lizi should have the best combined results.

Her previous performance was much better than that of Zhong Lizi. The problem is that in the last assessment, she got the wrong answer to the three definitions of gods. What if the sacrificial hall...

Now that Zhong Lizi made such a big scandal in public, how could the sacrificial hall put her in the final three-person list?

The female officer of the priest family rushed over and cleaned up the mess as quickly as possible. Fortunately, Zhong Lizi's luck value has always been extremely high, so she vomited all of it into the celadon bowl, and the water in the celadon bowl was used a lot when she washed her face, and none of it splashed outside. It was very easy to clean up.

Zhong Lizi felt better after vomiting, and became more awake. He lay in Jiang Yuxia's arms with his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep.

Listening to her breathing rate, Jiang Yuxia knew that she was pretending to be asleep because she felt ashamed, so she smiled, but didn't expose her, just patted her lightly.

It didn't take long for Mr. Xia and more than a dozen bishops to come out from behind the colonnade and make an official announcement to the guests who came to watch the ceremony and the people of the entire planet on the camera side.

"According to the results of today's selection and assessment performance, the sacrificial hall has decided to enter the final list of three people: Jiang Yuxia, Huaxi..."

Hearing the name announced, Jiang Yuxia helped Zhong Lizi to sit firmly and stood up slowly.

Huaxi was gently awakened by a female officer with a secret medicine, and she stood up in a daze, her body still a little crooked.

Mo Zhi straightened his waist, his hips slightly left the seat cushion, and prepared to stand up with the most upright posture when he heard the name.

Then she heard the third name, and the smile on the corner of her lips froze instantly.

"...and Zhong Lizi."

...

...

The loudest cheers of the night erupted on the grassland outside the sacrificial hall.

The children in front of countless TVs ran more happily, and the hostess and hostess drank ale, clinked glasses with each other, and celebrated the birth of the new history of this planet with a smile.

The tables and chairs in the cafeteria of Xinshi College were smashed, and the fat principal wiped the sweat off his face excitedly and fearfully, and shouted at the director of the affairs department to take out all the best ingredients from the warehouse of the cafeteria.

The owner of the game hall looked at the TV light curtain and smoked vigorously, and kept wowing, completely speechless.

The barbecue stand owner has been lifted on the shoulders of diners and begins to parade on the narrow sidewalk.

Mr. Dan drank down the small bottle of distilled wine, his pale face showed uncontrollable joy, and then fell asleep on the table, completely unaffected by the commotion around him.

This is not the first time that girls from the underground district have participated in the selection of priestesses, but this is the first time they have entered the formal assessment, entered the third stage of the assessment, and finally entered the final three-person list!

For countless years, this is the first time something like this has happened.

The underground neighborhoods went into a frenzy, and even those who would never leave their apartment buildings took to the streets to join in the festivities.

From Minsheng Community to Chaoyang Community to Paradise Community, even those upper-level neighborhoods and people on the surface expressed great enthusiasm and congratulations.

As for whether Zhong Lizi can become the new priestess, it depends entirely on the choice of the priestess, which is the will of the gods.

Neither everyone nor she can make any more efforts in this regard, and naturally they will not feel any disappointment because of the results.

It was already a miracle, even a miracle, that she could get here.

...

...

The female officer did not leave after waking up Huaxi, and when she heard Zhong Lizi's name, she walked up to her and put the secret medicine on her nose.

Zhong Lizi could no longer pretend to be asleep, so he woke up "youngly", and found that his nasal cavity was acrid, and couldn't help but sneezed.

At this time, people on the entire planet were watching her, and the TV station couldn't turn the camera away, so this scene fell into everyone's eyes, and it must remain in people's memory for a long time, and even in history.

She didn't fully wake up until this time, she didn't care about being shy, and said in disbelief: "Is it me?"

"It's you." Jiang Yuxia was happier than she was.

A panicked and angry voice suddenly sounded in the sacrificial hall: "This is not fair!"

Mo Zhi stood up, looked at Mr. Xia and the dozen or so bishops, and said with a pale face, "Why is she on the final list?"

Mr. Xia said blankly: "The judgment of the assessment results is decided by the sacrificial hall. No one is allowed to question it, let alone interfere."

After all, Mo Zhi was just a girl. At this time, his emotions were about to break down. How could he care so much? He said in a crying voice, "I performed better than her in the first round, and my realm was far superior to her in the second round. Even if she was better than me in the third round, why did you choose her? Is it because she is from an underground street, and you have to take care of the emotions of the people there? Do you have to sacrifice me in this way?"

The strange thing is that the TV station did not do any emergency treatment at this time, but broadcast her words intact to all the TV screens.

The people in the sacrificial hall and the audience in front of the TV gradually calmed down and found that there seemed to be some problems, at least not enough in terms of fairness.

If you don't think about Zhong Lizi's identity in the underground street, she is indeed no better than Mo Zhi.

"There's also... and the final identity registration. I know it's an assessment...but...but I didn't say anything."

Mo Zhi said in a trembling voice, tears kept streaming down his face, looking extremely aggrieved and pitiful.

Mr. Xia was still expressionless, looking at her quietly.

Everyone wanted to know what answer he would give on behalf of the sacrificial hall and the priest family.

Zhong Lizi was a little nervous, Jiang Yuxia took her hand slightly, implying that she didn't have to worry.

"The reason is very simple."

Mr. Xia looked at Mo Zhi and said calmly, "During the final assessment, she drank more than you."

Hearing this answer, the hall was unusually quiet, and then there was an uproar.

Where would people have thought that it was such an absurd reason—could it be that the selection of the priestess really depends on drinking?

Immediately afterwards, people found that Mr. Xia's answer was correct. When the sacrificial hall brought drinks, he didn't say what the test was for.

It can be xinxing, self-control ability, demeanor, or the deep blockade of consciousness after drunk, so why can't it be the amount of alcohol?

To be on the safe side, Mo Zhi chose the most conservative method and was the first to put down his wine glass.

Zhong Lizi obviously can't drink, and he doesn't know the method of assessment, so he chose the most radical and risky approach, isn't it also an excellent quality?

When people were subconsciously looking for reasons for the sacrificial hall and Zhong Lizi, Zhong Lizi himself was stunned, thinking that this is okay?

She never thought in her life that she would be better than someone because of... drinking.

"Even so, it's still unfair, because the little girl was drunk at the time, and she was much later than others when she recited the classics."

A slightly fat middle-aged man stood up slowly, with no expression on his face, and the deep-set eye sockets were somewhat cold.

Many people know that he is Mo Zhi's father, the head of the Mo family of this generation, who controls the largest interstellar transportation company on this planet.

The head of the Mo family looked at Mr. Xia indifferently and said: "Since she was drunk at that time and couldn't wake up to take the assessment, you should disqualify her."

"That's the process of the sacrificial hall, what does it have to do with Miss Zhong Lizi??

At this moment, another voice sounded.

People followed the sound and looked over, and found that it was the president of Xuanyu Company, they couldn't help being surprised.

Why did the president of Whirlwind Company speak for this girl from the underground district? Even at the expense of going against the Mo family? You must know that Xuanyu Company is the largest game company on this planet, and its influence is similar to that of the Mo family. Over the years, with the rise of Chairman Xuanyu in the political arena of the main star, it is even more faintly above the Mo family, but the other party is the Mo family after all.

The Patriarch of the Mo family was also very surprised, he turned around and stared at the president of Xuanyu Company, as if he wanted to see what he was thinking.

The chief executive sitting in the first row exchanged glances with the director of the base, and the rest of the senior officials and heads of various families shook their heads imperceptibly. Only then did they realize that the Mo family's preparations were extremely inadequate, and they didn't even know the relationship between Xuanyu Company and the girl named Zhong Lizi, so they would definitely lose.

The development of the matter was as expected by those real big men, and Mr. Xia continued with the words of the president of Xuanyu Company: "That's right, this is a problem with the process."

The Patriarch of the Mo family suddenly turned around, and said in a deep voice, "No matter what the problem is, someone must explain it."

The bishop from Shouer City said calmly: "Who was in charge of assessing Miss Zhong Lizi's final recitation just now?"

A priest came out with a heavy face, and said: "The subordinate was at a loss at the time, please punish the bishop."

"I think you have a good attitude. Go to the seminary and think about it for two years." The bishop said.

The Seminary is Jiang Yuxia's alma mater. It is located on the third basement floor, but the environment is excellent, and the priests teach there and the rewards are very fast. How can you think about it?

Hearing this sentence, who doesn't know the attitude of the sacrificial hall? The sacrificial hall is obviously trying to protect Zhong Lizi, no matter how great the Mo family is, so what?

Not knowing what happened, Mr. Xia was in a low mood tonight, and he didn't even glance at his niece Jiang and Xia.

He looked at the Patriarch of the Mo family with a blank expression and said, "You can either sit down or leave."

How could the Patriarch of the Mo family still sit still at this time, he stepped forward and took his daughter's hand and walked out of the sacrificial hall.

A small storm ended here.

Jiang Yuxia, Huaxi, and Zhong Lizi, the three girls who entered the final list were led into the inner hall by the female officer, ready to take a bath and change clothes, meet the priestess, and wait for the final decision.

There was finally warm applause in the sacrificial hall, especially the teachers and students of Stargate University were extremely excited. Among the three girls who entered the final list today, two were students of Stargate University. It was an extremely glorious moment.

Of course, at a time like this, they naturally wouldn't think about it. Jiang Yuxia and Zhong Lizi were all exchange students from other schools.

When leaving, Zhong Lizi looked at the crowd again, wanting to see that familiar figure, but was again disappointed.

The guests who came to watch the ceremony saluted towards the gray curtain like the sky, and exited the sacrificial hall like a tide.

Next will be the choice of the priestess, which is the embodiment of the will of the gods. Mortals cannot watch it on the spot, and must exit the hall to wait for the result.

After bathing, Zhong Lizi, Jiang Yuxia and Huaxi wore brand new white sacrificial robes and walked behind the gray curtain.

The three girls became nervous uncontrollably when they thought about meeting the priestess, Zhong Lizi and Huaxi's drunkenness had gone nowhere.

The female officer who led them stopped at the entrance, and only the sound of their footsteps could be heard in the quiet hall.

The battleship in the sky had already left, and the starlight became even more dazzling, covering the bluestone floor like water.

Looking at the woman sitting on the futon, they guessed her identity, and were about to kneel down to salute, when they suddenly found a person standing on the terrace not far away.

The man was wearing a blue tracksuit, shining in the starlight.

Huaxi didn't know who that person was, and subconsciously let out a soft cry.

There was an expression of disbelief in Jiang Yuxia's eyes.

Zhong Lizi was also very surprised, she never expected that Jing Jiu would appear here, but the next moment, the shock turned into warmth and gratitude.

She understood why she was shortlisted for the priestess.

But who are you?

...
