Test Begins

June fourteenth.

On the last day before the start of the comprehension conference, all the personnel were present except Zhao Yumin and Xiao Ling. As for the inspectors, no one knew when they would appear.

The closer it was to the Cultivation Conference, the more people there were around Lianyun Village. Most of them came to see the excitement. On the contrary, Lianyun Village was quiet. It seemed that because of the approaching conference, almost every group of people stayed behind closed doors.

And Gurt is hiding in Hua Tanli's house.

This is not because he is afraid of people coming to investigate, but because Brand's house is in a special location, almost everyone has to pass by the place where he lives to go up to Yangtian Peak, so he has not had a peaceful day these days, so he ran to Hua Tanley came to his own quarters.

The location here was specially chosen by him. It is remote and quiet, at the end of the entire Lianyun Village, but there is a small road outside the village that can be bypassed, which can be described as secret and convenient.

He was sitting on a chair, flipping through the books on the bookshelf, but thinking about the next strategy in his mind.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly his heart trembled, he felt a chill sweeping over his body, and he was about to release energy unconsciously, but then he realized that the identity at this time was Hua Tanli, and he must not make any moves. Things beyond Hua Tanli's ability.

Knowing that someone was already watching him at this time, he resisted to flip through the book for a while, pretended to be tired from reading, stood up, stretched, opened the door, stood at the door, looked up at the book on the top. On the Yangtian Peak covered with ice and snow, a strange feeling rose in my heart, I only felt that only myself remained between the heaven and the earth, and I sighed leisurely.

At the same time, a gust of wind blew behind him, and he turned around subconsciously, and slapped out with a palm full of true energy.

There was a slight "huh" sound from inside the room. Guert met the man with a palm. The palm was neither light nor heavy.

Just now, he was afraid that someone would sneak up on him, and he was also afraid that he would subconsciously use his energy, so he gathered a wave of true energy and hid it, so that if there was any movement behind him, he could defend with this blow.

At this time, he raised his eyes and saw that the man was dressed in black, of medium build, and had an unusually ordinary appearance. He said coldly, "Who is your Excellency?" Make Feng Qi." Guerte was startled, but he still said with disbelief on his face: "What evidence do you have?" Feng Qi shook his head and said: "I don't need evidence, I am me." After a pause, he said: " Have you discovered me before?" Guert pretended to be surprised and said, "Why do you ask that?" Feng raised a cold light in his eyes, and said, "With the speed at which true energy is stimulated, the fastest reaction People, you have to wait until I hit your arm before you can react, but just now when I approached your side, you have already swung your palm over, obviously you have been prepared for a long time." Yun~Xiao~Ge

Guert pretended to be calm and said: "This is just a habit. No matter where I am or what I do, I will hide a burst of true energy to prevent people from attacking me."

Feng Qi looked at him deeply, and after a long time, he showed a smile, and said: "Okay, it's very interesting, you passed the first level."

Guert was stunned, he didn't pretend this time, he was really intimidated, he originally thought that someone would check him because he showed his flaws, but he didn't expect this to be a test, so he was stunned for a while Afterwards, he asked, "Then may I ask, can I be promoted in this way?"

Feng Qi shook his head and said: "This is the first test. Our four inspectors will conduct four tests, and we will be promoted if we pass all of them."

Guert asked blankly: "Didn't you say that you will go to the Yangtian Peak for a martial arts competition?"

Feng Qi smiled and said: "What we need to test is ability and quality. As long as you have this quality, it doesn't matter if you lose. We will make a comprehensive evaluation."

Guert nodded inwardly, knowing that this is indeed a very formal assessment. The learning and use of Yili is not the same as Zhenqi, and it does not mean that Yili will be strong if you practice Zhenqi well.

Feng Qi obviously didn't know what he was thinking, he moved lightly, patted his shoulder, and said: "Young man, work hard!" After speaking, his figure disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Seeing him leave, Guert closed the door and sat down on the chair, unconsciously drenched in sweat.

It wasn't that he was afraid of failing the test, but that he was afraid of being seen to be powerful.

Just now Feng Qi, even though he looks ordinary, but his eyes are extremely powerful, staring at him, he feels like he has been stripped naked, standing over there to be watched by others, it is very scary.

This is the first test, and I don't know how many tests there will be. This kind of sudden test is the easiest way to test a person's true level. From now on, Guert knows that he should be on guard at all times, otherwise he will not be able to Be careful to use Yili, then you will be finished.

At the same time, he was also planning in his mind, how to accept the assessment at any time, but also to be the big boss of Lianyun Village, and he had to prepare to deal with Ren Yan, which was really troublesome.

But one thing is reassuring. Also subject to the inspection at any time by the patrol envoy, Ren Yan probably doesn't have much spare time to carry out his plot.

At night, this was the first time Guert used Hua Tanli's identity to stay here overnight. On this day, the patrol envoy did not come over to conduct any tests, and he did not dare to go out to wander around. After all, Hua Tanli is a person who does not like to be with A loner who is in contact with others.

He opened the only secret passage in the room and sneaked in. He had already memorized all the secret passages in Lianyun Village in his mind. Because he wanted to prevent the eyes and ears, he did not make all the secret passages during the construction of the Tarim, only in a few luxurious ones. Villas and large residences only have secret doors and secret passages, and every corner of the village also has a secret passage entrance and exit, and this is one of the exits.

He used the secret passage to sneak into Tarim's residence secretly, turned into Brand's identity, and pushed through the secret passage to enter.

Tarim seemed to be looking at something on the table, and was startled when he heard the sound of the secret passage. He was about to jump up when Guert pushed him down on the chair.

Seeing that it was Guert, Tarim breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Scared me to death, I thought it was Ren Yan." After a pause, he pointed to a piece of paper on the table excitedly, and said, "Look at this !"

When Guert pressed him on the chair, he saw that it was a map-like thing with many lines drawn vertically and horizontally, but without any place names. He frowned and asked, "What is this?"

Tarim rubbed his hands excitedly, and said, "Hey, this is a letter I copied from Ren Yan's room in the evening. I'm still researching what it is, but it should be very important. He hides it very secretly."

Guert thought to himself: The most important things must be brought with you, how could they be thrown in the house so casually for you to find. But he couldn't bear to hit him in his heart, and said: "Then have you researched what this is?"

Tarim touched his head in embarrassment and said, "I was still studying just now!"

Guert waved his hand and said: "Then you study it carefully, by the way, do you know when Ren Yan is going to strike?"

Tarim shrugged and said, "He hasn't told me yet, but his target should be Qingzhe's people, probably concentrated in just a few rooms."

Guert thought to himself: Qingzhe's people are Ruoyu and the others. Said: "Then tell Ning Fuhai for me to send more people around Qimeng and Qingzhe."

Tarim said in astonishment: "Why even Qimeng... hey, I understand."

Guert knew that Tarim must have thought that he didn't want to scare the snake, but he didn't know that he was really afraid that Ren Yanlian and Qimeng would solve it at once, which would be dangerous.

Tarim suddenly said: "By the way, I don't think he would make a move at this time. He attaches great importance to the comprehension conference. If he wins, he can advance to the comprehension world. Those things in the human world are useless to him at all." Isn't he afraid of being discovered by the patrol envoy who will take the risk of killing Qingzhe now, thus disqualifying him from the competition?"

Guert glanced at him, and said: "If he deploys enough self-explosive attack devices near the tunnel entrance, and blows all those houses into the sky at once, who do you think is the most suspicious..."

Tarim was stunned, and said: "These are all new houses. Of course, the builder is the most suspected. Others don't know. I have already told Ren Yan the secret of the secret passage, so he..." Halfway through speaking, his face suddenly became pale. Changed, said: "Then am I not very dangerous?"

Guert smiled secretly: I want you to think so! Pretending to be in deep thought, he said, "Well... there is a possibility. In order not to let others know that this place is related to him, he should kill you to silence it!"

Tarim's complexion changed, and he said, "No wonder he said he would pay me after success! So he wanted to kill me after everything is done!"

Guert patted him and said, "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I won't let him hurt you."

Tarim's face was cloudy and uncertain. Looking at the picture on the table, he suddenly said: "Tomorrow when the cultivation conference starts, Ren Yan will have a group of people coming from other places. He asked me to help him arrange accommodation yesterday."

Guert was startled and thought to himself: If it hadn't been like this, this Tarim would still be dishonest. Hey, but he should be more worried than me now! He pretended to be thinking on his face and said: "Well, those may be from the attacking device. The Cultivation Conference will open tomorrow, and everyone's attention will be on it, and Ren Yan himself is not here, so he is not suspicious at all. There will be."

Tarim jumped up in fright and said, "Uncle, Uncle, you have to save me!"

Guert spread his hands and said: "You just told me now, what can I do, you can talk about them tomorrow first!"

Tarim's face changed continuously, and he said, "Then what should we do next?"

Guert said: "Sit here and wait for my notice. Anyway, they will have to take Ren Yan down before taking any further action. Moreover, Ren Yan probably didn't tell too many people about the secret passage, so before tomorrow night, it will still be It's safe." After a pause, he said, "Sit here first, study this thing carefully, and I'll go back first." After speaking, regardless of Tarim's yelling, he sneaked into the secret passage again.

Not long after entering the secret passage, he suddenly felt a slight vibration on the other side of the secret passage, and his heart trembled. Could it be that Ren Yan and the others had already taken action?

Following the sound, he quickly passed through. This dark passage was obviously pre-designed, so one person could pass through it very smoothly, and at intervals, there would be lights coming down from above for illumination.

There was a slight tremor in front of him, he raised his qi slightly, and sneaked over without a sound. When he turned a corner, he saw a person lying on a secret door looking in. Suddenly, the light from the secret door flickered on. On that person's face, Guert was shocked, it turned out to be Stuart! How did he know about the secret passage? And what is he lying on his stomach looking at now?

Yili mentioned it and extended it along the dark passage, only to hear a clear humming sound, and after a while, there was the sound of water rushing down again, Guert's heart was shocked, and he knew what Stuart was looking at.

The humming sound was very familiar, it was the folk song of the nearby village that Caroline often hummed, and the sound of rushing water in it should be Caroline taking a bath.

At this time, the light by the hidden door flickered again, and I saw an indescribably wretched look on Stuart's face.

Guert was very angry. He thought that Stuart had matured a lot, but he didn't expect to use this secret passage to spy on Caroline taking a bath. Damn it!

But it's not easy to go and find out now, otherwise the secret of this secret passage will be leaked out, and why I am here will become a big question.

Thinking for a moment, Guert picked up a small piece of gravel left in the dark passage from the ground, flicked it lightly, and just hit Stuart's lower rib.

Stuart was watching with enthusiasm, when he was shot accidentally, he yelled out, Caroline obviously heard the sound, stopped taking a bath, and shouted sharply: "Who is it?"

Stuart was so frightened that he hurriedly closed the secret door, lying on the side without daring to move.

Guert shook his head and left. He knew that the secret door needed a certain method to open. It was impossible for Caroline to know in such a short time, but he should be on guard in the future.

This Stuart, alas!

He quickly flashed to the residence of Qimeng Zhexin and others. Danze was busy with internal affairs and did not come. In the past, Qimeng did not send official people to the cultivation conference. I don't know if it is because of Guert or Because Qi League's grades are particularly good, they make an exception and send people here.

The sudden appearance of Guert shocked Zhexin. After some explanations, Guert asked the key point of the visit, saying: "Are there any weapons used for explosions in the Qimeng League? For example, the bombardment Ray like that."

When Hong Tianlei was in the underground cave, Guert heard what Hu Shaoguang said, Zhe Xin pondered for a while, and said: "There are many, but many of them are used for blasting during mining, because they are very powerful, so It's not available in the general market."

Guert remembered that the Wujian Artifact Refining Academy and the Artifact Refining Faction had secretly sold attacking weapons to Ren Yan before, so it was not surprising that Ren Yan had such a thing in his hand. Please do me a favor?"

Zhe Xin laughed and said, "That's great, I'm here to find something to do!"

Guert was overjoyed, and told Ren Yan that he would send people to bring things over tomorrow. The two agreed on a move, and then dispersed.

June fifteenth.

The Imprint Continent Cultivation Conference starts today.

Few people know how to start, but when the contestants wake up in the morning, they all find a wooden sign with a number by the door, and a note that reads: Arrive at Yangtian Peak before nine o'clock.

Guert got No. 7, and he knew that this must be another test, so he didn't hesitate any longer when he saw the request, and sprinted towards Yangtian Peak.

Almost at the same moment, Lianyun Village was up and down, and several people flew out again.

Guert himself didn't know where he was ranked. He only knew that someone could be vaguely seen in front of him, and there were several people behind him.

He had walked this road the last time he went down the mountain, and he used to live at the foot of the mountain, and he had climbed it when he had nothing to do. He knew that he could definitely reach it before nine o'clock by keeping the current speed. So there is no rush, and the speed has been maintained to fly forward.

Within a few hours, four people around him had passed him, and he still looked relaxed. He knew that the air would get thinner the higher he got to the top. If he didn't accumulate energy at this time, he might die when he reached the top of the mountain. .

At this moment, suddenly a pair of figures flew up at an unusually fast speed. Guert glanced at it for a moment and knew that it was a man and a woman. Because the speed was too fast, he couldn't see their faces clearly, but from the back, the man and woman They should not be very old, the man is dressed in Tsing Yi, while the woman is dressed in fiery red.

Guert suddenly flashed Xiao Ling's shadow, and thought to himself: Could it be that Ling girl came in time? Why are you still in the same rush as before, what are you doing running so fast?

But after a while, seeing her holding hands with the man and flying upwards almost without a break, Gurt suddenly realized in his heart that the two must have a special ability to borrow energy. Through the interconnection of hands, they can The speed is doubled, and at the same time, the energy consumed by each is only half of the original.

Guert recalled the request written on the note, and he didn't seem to say that the two can't be together, but not everyone can make such an excuse. First of all, they must be familiar with each other, and second, they must have absolute trust. During this process, if one party attacks the other, that party will suffer a fatal blow.

There was a slight smile on the corner of Guert's mouth. Could this be what they were looking for? While thinking about it, he also raised his speed to a higher level, and immediately the two sides flitted white.

At nine o'clock in the morning, when Guert reached the finish line, the Feng Qi he had seen was also standing there, and beside him were nine contestants who had already arrived.

Gurt finally saw Ren Yan standing on the far side, his hair was still as gray as the last time he saw him, but just standing there, he had a natural domineering air, which made people dare not look directly at him.

Ren Yan stood beside Feng Ziheng, and on the other side of Feng Ziheng stood Versace, each with its own style.

Guert saw it, and was shocked in his heart, knowing that he was really ignorant in the past, and he actually competed with people of these levels for the artifact!

Guert swept his eyes again and saw Xiao Ling. She hadn't changed much from her previous appearance. The fiery red clothes outlined graceful curves, and the most eye-catching thing was the fiery red dress. On the red outer shirt, there is a picture of a phoenix spreading its wings and waiting to fly.

The man in Tsing Yi standing next to her is naturally Zhao Yumin who disappeared with her for a long time and is known as the number one person in the younger generation .

With chestnut hair, light brown eyes, and handsome eyebrows, it is almost impossible to believe that there is such a man who is more beautiful than a woman, with wheat-colored skin, and a slender and tall figure that exudes heroism, he is indeed a perfect person.

Feng Ziheng and Versace present can be regarded as handsome men, but they are not as good as Zhao Yumin.

At this moment, Feng Qi looked at him and said, "Why are you here so late?"
