Chapter 48

It is now late autumn, and the weather is getting colder and colder.

Early in the morning, many people in Huaining City flocked to the City Lord's Mansion.

Today is the selection day every three years. The lucky ones who can break through the siege and enter the top five will have the opportunity to be favored by Gui Yuanzong, and thus embark on a path of practice that can change their own destiny.

As in previous years, there are a total of eight families participating in the selection this time. In addition to the Wu family, the Ji family, and the Li family, which can send eight children, there are five other families like the Lin family that can also send five children each. Participate in this selection.

Forty-nine of the most outstanding teenagers in Huaining City are standing behind their elders at this time, bowing to a middle-aged man in purple clothes in front of him. This middle-aged man is Gui Yuanzong who is in charge of selecting The deacon, with a cultivation base of Yuanjing, is already the leader in the small city of Huaining.

On his left were three young men who looked extraordinary. They were the young men from the three major families that Lin Xiu saw on the street that day.

On the right side of the deacon, stood the most powerful city lord in Huaining City, but the city lord who said nothing in the city, now carefully stood beside the deacon, keeping his airs extremely low.

Raising his eyelids, he lazily took a look at the teenagers in front of him, and found that there were no particularly outstanding seedlings. The deacon just hummed bluntly, which was regarded as a response to everyone's compliments.

For him, Guiyuanzong has dozens of deacons who come to places like Huaining City to select disciples every year. These little fellows who are considered geniuses in their own city, once they gather in Guiyuanzong, they will be in the same place. Among the countless geniuses, many of them lost their brilliance very quickly.

Every year, there are hundreds of disciples who worship Guiyuanzong, but only a few of them have passed the test of the sect and become inner disciples, and the other hundreds of "geniuses" can only be reduced to outer sects. disciple.

The merit of these deacons often comes from the talents of the selected disciples. For Deacon Liu, who has not had inner disciples under his command for many years, he really has no hope for the young people in front of him.

Accompanied by the city lord of Huaining City and the patriarchs of many families, Deacon Liu sat directly at the head of the stands, and the three young people from the three major families were also able to sit beside them.

At this moment, the city lord of Huaining City got up from his seat, and with his mighty energy, swept across the crowd, he began to read out the rules of this competition.

As in previous years, the rules for this selection are very simple. In the first round, all the teenagers compete on the same arena, and the ten teenagers who can stay on the stage will advance to the second round smoothly.

In the second round, ten teenagers will draw lots and play against each other in pairs. The five winners will get one point, while the five losers will get no points.

But this does not mean that those who fail will have no more chances. Each of them has two chances to challenge. If they can defeat the other five teenagers, they will be able to win the opponent's points.

After the challenge is completed, the five teenagers with the highest points will be regarded as Guiyuanzong's outer disciples, and will be taken directly to the capital of the Qianyuan Dynasty by Deacon Liu to compete with geniuses from all over the country. There are only five honors for inner disciples.

After introducing the selection rules, the City Lord of Huaining City waved his hand, indicating that the youngsters participating in the selection can enter the arena.

"Lin Xiu, the five of us will stand together later and help each other a little bit." As soon as he stepped onto the arena, Lin Feng lowered his voice and said to Lin Xiu beside him.

Naturally, Lin Xiu had no objection. The more Lin family members who could enter Guiyuanzong, the happier he would be. This was only the first round.

After the five younger generations of the Lin family took a firm stand on the north side of the arena, they found that the other families did the same as them.

Everyone stared at others vigilantly, and some weak teenagers even started to see sweat from their heads.

The moment the lord of Huaining City announced the start of the selection, the youngsters in the arena erupted in awe!

"I'm not mistaken, there are actually twelve Bone Tempering Realm!" Among the spectators in the audience, there were many people with sharp eyesight. After seeing the aura rising to the sky, they quickly judged their respective strengths. .

"Huh? Look quickly, there are actually three Bone Tempering Realm over there from the Lin family! Let me go, when are they stronger than the three major families?" A middle-aged man in yellow couldn't help but also said.

On the high platform, the Patriarchs of many families in Huaining City who were sitting quietly, all looked a little ugly.

Who would have thought that the Lin family would have cultivated so many outstanding children quietly!

Lin Wentian on the high platform stroked his snow-white beard in relief, while being humble, he couldn't hide the pride in his eyes.

As early as two days ago, Lin Feng had successfully broken through the wall and reached the Bone Tempering Realm.

For a while, the Lin family's limelight even overshadowed the original three powerful families, but what they didn't know was that the Lin family's trump card was still Lin Xiu, a young man who was only at the peak of the blood refinement realm!

The battle in the arena is in full swing. In the eyes of these big shots on the high platform, their offensive methods are still a bit rough, and their martial arts are not so smooth. They don't care about the fights of the juniors below. The only thing is who can finally stand out and become Gui Yuanzong's disciple and win glory for the whole family.

Apart from the Lin family, the most notable ones were the many younger generations of the three major families. After they found out that the Lin family was a tough stubble, they temporarily extended their minions to the children of other relatively weaker families.

With their cooperation, some opponents whose strength had not reached the Bone Tempering Realm quickly surrendered.

In just a short moment, less than half of the people left in the arena.

There were even two unlucky Bone Tempering Realm masters. With the unity and cooperation of the three major families, the selection ended early, and they could only leave the arena with hatred.

There were only 20 people left in the field, and among the remaining people, except for the brothers of their own family, no one dared to trust others easily.

Several small groups are confronting each other coldly, trying to find some flaws in each other.

Up to now, no one will give up and quit easily. This selection is enough to change their fate, and everyone will cherish this hard-won opportunity.

After a long time, Lin Xiu, who was inconspicuous in everyone's eyes, suddenly moved. He was only at the peak of the blood refinement realm, and was not regarded by others.

But with Lin Xiu's attack, they found that they were all wrong.

In a short period of time, Lin Xiu entered the land of no one, and every figure was kicked off the arena by him like sandbags, even some people who had just entered the bone tempering state were no exception.

The field suddenly boiled up!

The Blood Refining Realm cleans up the Bone Tempering Realm like chickens, which is really beyond everyone's surprise.

Even the deacon who had squinted his eyes looked at Lin Xiu a few more times.

A monk at the blood refinement level can compete with a monk at the bone quenching level. He has also encountered a lot in the past few years in the job of selecting disciples.

But like Lin Xiu, it was the first time that he cleaned up so simply and casually.

For a while, he became a little interested in the young man in the arena.
