Chapter 278: Elder Yao

Name:I Can Edit Skills Author:Bamboo Room
Youngest prospective deacon? legendary?

​​

Why does it feel like this little girl knew about herself before?

​​

In the floating ladder, Zhou Ji felt a little flustered by this little girl. He regrets a little that he didn't bring his daughter here today. In dealing with these little girls, his daughter is much more reliable than him...

​​

A conference room on the seventh floor of Wanfang Building.

​​

The old man was sitting on the chair in the first place, with Erlang's legs cocked and swaying gently. He held a slender pipe in his hand, and with the shaking of his wrist, a wavy white flocculent smoke was pulled out from the front end of the bowl, which condensed but did not disperse, and went straight to the roof.

​​

"Elder Yao, is our time almost here?"

​​

Finally, someone couldn't help but speak.

​​

"Wait a minute, it's only a few minutes before it starts."

​​

The old man took a puff of cigarette and opened his mouth slowly. The smoke gushed out of his mouth, nose, and even ears as he spoke.

​​

After getting the old man's answer, no one said anything, but their eyes swept to the only vacant chair beside the conference table from time to time.

​​

Different from those reported by the students, those who came to compete for deacon jobs were required to arrive before 11 am. And everyone is very serious about this, so most of them arrived half an hour earlier. Even if there is a little late, they all arrive 10 minutes earlier.

​​

Now, there are still 3 minutes before the official checklist and the announcement of the rules. Almost all the people present have arrived, but what they didn't expect is that there is still a vacant seat.

​​

"Guess, where is this big guy who made Elder Yao willingly wait for him. I remember that last year, Elder Yao arrived at the reporting point 20 minutes earlier and directly announced that all those who arrived later would be disqualified. "

​​

Next to the vacant seat, a middle-aged fat man with a slicked hair squinted his eyes and asked the companion he had just met beside him.

​​

In his hand, he was playing with a small metal tripod. The tripod was engraved with intricate patterns. As Fatty's spirit energy fluctuated, the patterns on it also flickered on and off, exuding a slightly crimson luster.

​​

"I don't know, just wait and see. If you have the real ability, you can compare it. The Mission Building is not willing to go through the back door."

​​

Next to him is a dark-skinned bald-headed strong man who looks powerful. The pronunciation of the strong man's speech is a bit lame, and when a normal person hears it, he will know that he definitely does not belong to the local residents of Guangqing Xianyu.

​​

Fatty heard what the man next to him said, hehe laughed and stopped talking. That is, because he and this brawny man are not the same expertise, and the two are not on the same track, so they can only talk a few words.

​​

But unfortunately, this guy is obviously not very good at chatting, and every time he can take the topic to a direction that he doesn't know how to answer.

​​

After another minute, the door of the conference room was pushed open.

​​

"Excuse me, is this a reporting point?"

​​

The voice of the young man came in, and at the same time, everyone saw a young face.

​​

How could the last person be so young? You look only in your twenties, don't you think?

​​

Everyone who was waiting in the conference room saw Zhou Ji's appearance, and cast a scrutinizing look one by one, but soon, there were many surprises and doubts in the eyes.

​​

Competing for the appointment of a deacon in the Mission Building is not something that young people can join casually. And this so-called skill, which one does not require a lot of time to accumulate? Some even take up time for cultivation!

​​

Shouldn't it be... an old evildoer with good looks and skills? But looking at this person's actions, it doesn't seem that he has the stability after many years of tempering.

​​

Is it really that kind of old guy who has some psychological problems and likes to pretend to be tender?

​​

The inner man couldn't help thinking, and he didn't dare to use the probing technique rudely to directly look at Zhou Ji's realm.

​​

The atmosphere was quiet and strange. The people who were originally dissatisfied with Zhou Ji's failure to show up earlier didn't know what kind of expression to use to face Zhou Ji, and some even became inexplicably nervous.

​​

"Zhou Ji, right? Just waiting for you. There is a seat over there. Hurry up and sit down. We are going to start explaining the rules."

​​

The first Elder Yao heard Zhou Ji's voice and breathed out a smoke ring before speaking.

​​

"I've seen those few exercises of yours before, and this place was also won by me and the elders. Although you are much younger than the others, you have come a long way in the study of exercises. , the test later, don't let me down."

"Ah? Thank you for your compliment, Senior, I don't know what you call it..."

​​

Zhou Ji looked at the white-haired old man in front of him with a kind-hearted face and no spiritual energy in his body, and hurriedly saluted and thanked him.

​​

"My surname is Yao, and now I'm the elder of the Sutra Collection Pavilion in the preaching building."

​​

"I have seen Elder Yao."

​​

After receiving the honorary title, Zhou Ji hurriedly gave another salute. If he can be an elder in the missionary pavilion, who would dare to treat him as an ordinary person? At least he is also a mid-to-late boss who presses himself above the third-order realm.

​​

"Okay, go and take your seats. Next, I'll talk about the rules for this year."

​​

Elder Yao waved his hand, and when Zhou Ji walked to the office, he had already turned on the projection in front of him, and the information about this competition appeared in the eyes of everyone.

​​

"This year's competition for deacons is mainly divided into two stages: the preliminary screening and the final test. Here I am in charge of the preliminary screening of the twenty-three stars, and I will take you to the No. 1 Star headquarters for the final test..."

​​

Zhou Ji had already arrived at the seat, and next to him, a middle-aged fat man with a big back leaned over familiarly: "Hello, Brother Zhou, my surname is Luo, it's a pleasure to meet you."

​​

"Hello, Brother Luo."

​​

For strangers, Zhou Ji was still a little cold, just nodded to say hello. But the man surnamed Luo did not feel Zhou Ji's indifference, and chatted with Zhou Ji warmly.

​​

"Haha, Brother Zhou, I heard Elder Yao say that you specialize in the study of exercises? I specialize in alchemy. Let's leave a communication number for each other. No matter if we can enter the preaching building or not, we can help each other. a bit."

​​

Under the eager gaze of the man surnamed Luo, Zhou Ji had no choice but to agree for the time being.

​​

On the stage, Elder Yao turned a blind eye to this Fatty Luo's actions, and continued to speak to himself: "According to the information I have received, among the seventeen of you, five are in the field of cultivation techniques, four are in alchemy, and four are in the field of alchemy. It is the refining tool, two are the formation method, and the other two are the spiritual tool. As for the method of the initial screening..."

​​

Speaking of which, Elder Yao suddenly paused and patted his forehead lightly: "Ah, by the way, there will be a round of realm tests before the initial screening."

​​

Just as he was talking, before everyone could react, a huge amount of spiritual pressure suddenly poured out of Elder Yao. A few who didn't react were directly pressed onto the table, struggling for a long time before blushing and confronting the coercion emanating from Elder Yao.

​​

The moment the coercion appeared, Zhou Ji was alert, and the next moment, he only felt as if a mountain was pouring towards him. At this time, he still hadn't realized what happened, but he still used his spirit energy to fight with all his strength for the first time, and this pressure still slowly bent his back.

​​

Fortunately, this uncomfortable feeling only lasted for half a minute Just as Zhou Ji was sweating on his forehead, bronze light flashed on his skin, and when his body slowly straightened up, the pressure suddenly disappeared.

​​

Bang...bang...!

​​

There were several sounds one after another. Someone crushed the chair and sat on the ground. Someone suddenly disappeared because of the pressure. The whole person bounced, and his knee directly smashed the corner of the long table in the conference room.

​​

And Zhou Ji was also one of the ones who made this kind of noise. He rubbed the back of his head, looked at the cracked pattern on the wall behind him, and fell into contemplation.

​​

This... shouldn't you have to pay for it yourself?

​​

Subconsciously, he looked over at the "friend" he just met.

​​

This guy actually lay flat on the ground after the seat was crushed, and didn't stand up until the pressure disappeared. At this time, his face was not very good, and people with discernment could see that the pressure he had just endured was greater than that of others.

​​

"No one fainted, very good, it seems that this time everyone has reached the standard."

​​

Elder Yao took a puff of cigarette, exhaled a hollow circular smoke ring, and then waved the smoke ring to disperse, more than ten jade talismans appeared on the table in front of him, under the precise control of Elder Yao, one The piece flew to the crowd.

​​

"I just talked about the way of the initial screening. This is a small toy made by the guys in the Spirit Tool Pavilion. You only need to input the spiritual energy to know how to use it. This is a small game, and it can be completed within 20 minutes. screen."
