The competition rules are very simple. The loser is to admit defeat, abstain or fall into the challenge arena.
Because the competition will use weapons to fight as hard as possible, it's inevitable to be disabled in the fight, but you can't kill people. Every arena will be strictly guarded by deacons sent by three families.
If someone kills in a martial arts contest, he will be captured and killed.
Those who will compete in the arena are all the leaders of the families. No one wants the new generation of family members to die.
With the coming of time, the owners and elders of the major families took their young generation into the competition venue.
For a while, people around began to talk about it.
"Look, the heads of the Xue and Qin families are here.".
"Four years ago, there were people in the Xue family and the Qin family in the top 15.".
"There's someone from the Zhong family over there. It's their elder who leads the team.".
Some small families have entered to choose their positions.
These positions are determined by the ranking made four years ago. No one can stand in disorder.
Before long, the competition venue was full of people from all major families. It was really a sea of people.
"Look, it's the blue family.".
"It's LAN Jianren who led the team himself. He was the top ten player in the last promotion. At that time, he was a low-level Xuanshi. Now his strength should be more refined.".
"In recent years, the strength of the blue family has increased greatly, and this year they are expected to take a step further.".
"Look, it's li... Tianhao, the top five experts of the previous session.".
"Four years later, this year he is the most popular candidate for the first place.".
"Ling Feng of the Ling family has also come. I have a good play to watch this time.".
"It's not true. The amazing battle between Li Tianhao and Ling Feng is still unforgettable. I don't know who Lu died this time. I'm not sure.".
"Don't forget the Luo brothers, they're here too"
Just after all the representatives of the family arrived, the eight figures swept from eight different directions towards the high platform.
For a moment, everyone started to cry.
On the high platform, there are eight elders. In the middle are Ling Cang, the head of the Ling family, Li Qianzhong, the head of the Li family, and Luo Xiangming, the head of the Luo family.
The other five are the heads of other small and medium-sized families and the elders of the previous generation. Each of them is immeasurable, at least above the level of Lingshi. Otherwise, they are not qualified to sit with the heads of the three families.
LAN Zhenfeng, the owner of the LAN family, sits next to Li Qianzhong, bowing his hand and saying, "brother Li, the leader of the Li family this year.". LAN Zhenfeng flatters Li Qianzhong as if he is demonstrating to Ling Cang
"Ha ha, brother LAN is too much," Li Qianzhong said modestly, but his eyes are full of pride. It seems that he is sure to win the first place this time.
Li Qianzhong and LAN Zhenfeng are talking in public. This is a message that the Li family and the LAN family have indeed formed an alliance.
At this time, Luo Xiangming, the head of the Luo family, turned his eyes and said with a smile to Ling Cang, "brother Ling, when will you come to our Luo family to propose marriage?".
Luo Xiangming's words are not surprising!
Li Qianzhong and LAN Zhenfeng were almost scared to flash their tongue when they heard this, and the representatives of small and medium-sized families on one side were also shocked.
If the Ling family and the Luo family form an alliance, what does it mean?
Two of the three families will form an alliance. I'm afraid it will cause a big earthquake in meteorite city!
Even Ling Cang himself was startled and immediately asked, "brother Luo, what are you saying?".
"Brother Ling, don't you know that your family Ling Xiao and my granddaughter Shuanger are in love? My frost son says that the boy who is not Ling Xiao will not marry. Does brother Ling despise my Luo family? " Luo Xiangming said with a frown.
"Brother Luo, you are serious. Xiaoer is always independent and taught by the supreme elder. I seldom interfere in his affairs. I really don't know what happened between him and your granddaughter." Ling Cang replied quickly. He was very surprised!
He really didn't expect that his grandson Ling Xiao would hook up with all the granddaughters of the Luo family. As long as the Ling family and the Luo family are married, all the internal problems will be solved.
"Brother Ling, you know it now. Please show your attitude," Luo Xiangming asked faintly.
Li Qianzhong is angry! Before he asked his grandson to propose to the Luo family, he was rejected by the Luo family. It turned out that the Luo family took a fancy to the Ling family, and it was the smelly boy that he hated the most.
"Well, you Luo Xiangming, when you destroy the Ling family, you Luo family don't have to continue to mix in the meteorite City," Li Qianzhong whispered in his heart.Ling Cang laughs and says, "brother Luo, you have said that. If I refuse, it's not too unwise. I'll send someone to give me a dowry when Dabie is over.".
"Shuang'er is my favorite granddaughter. You can't give me a light gift," Luo Xiangming said with a smile.
"This is nature," Ling Cang said with a smile.
At this time, two more figures came up from below.
"We should not be late," a clear voice came out from a crowd.
For a moment, the three families on the high platform and the other five people stood up to welcome the visitors.
The visitors were two old men. One was wearing a light yellow robe, with a slightly fat body and a Hexi smile on his face, giving people a kind of approachable feeling. He was the one who spoke just now; Another old man in a grey robe was indifferent, tall and thin, and stood a little out of the crowd.
"Master Li, master yuan" was called by the three family leaders together with the other five people.
Only Li Kong, the master craftsman of meteorite City, and Yuan Ping, the mysterious second grade pharmacist of lingcaotang, can make the three patriarchs welcome each other.
After Li Kong and Yuan Ping saluted back to the crowd, Li Kong went directly to Ling Cang and said, "I've long wanted to visit brother Ling. After the competition, I'll go to your house to have a drink. Brother Ling doesn't mind.".
Li Kong's words were a little loud, and everyone could hear them clearly on the high platform.
Everyone is more crazy!
Li Kong is the only master of refining utensils in the meteorite city. His identity can be level with the heads of the three major families. Before, the three major families all offered to Li Kong, hoping that Li Kong could become their offering elder. Unfortunately, Li Kong didn't like constraints and refused them one by one. However, he still made friends with the three families and remained neutral. He had never heard of any family in which he was particularly fond of, but now he was courting Ling Cang in the hall, which surprised everyone.
If Li Kong really gets along well with the Ling family, then the prestige of the Ling family will be greatly improved in the future, and the position of the chief of their three families will become unbreakable. Even Li Lan and his family will not dare to think about it.
You know, although Li Kong is only one person, his appeal is still quite amazing.
For a moment, everyone's mind was constantly active, and some representatives of middle and small families were looking for ways to get along with the Ling family.
Ling Cang himself can't understand what's going on. It's Fair for Luo Xiangming to make a statement to him. However, with Li Kong's temperament, no one has ever sold anything. Now how can it be changed?
However, Ling Cang didn't think much about it. He immediately said with a smile, "if master Li can come to our house and have a guest, Ling Cang will naturally visit us. We don't have much else in Ling's family, but there are still a lot of good wines that have been treasured for a hundred years.".
"It's so good. By the way, Xiao'er has come to the competition today. I'll wait to see if he can get into the top five," Li Kong asked.
"It's Xiaoer again?" Ling Cang's heart was shocked, and he immediately asked in a soft voice, "Master Li, do you know my grandson who is not a tool?".
"Hehe, I'd like to thank Xiaoer for saving my son. If he hadn't saved my son, I'd have sent a man with white hair to a man with black hair. He's a benefactor of our family, and I'd let him recognize me as my grandfather. Brother Ling, do you mind?" Li Kong laughs.
"Li... Master Li, do you want Xiaoer to recognize you as a dry grandfather?" Ling Cang asked in a confused way.
"Why, brother Ling looks down on me, Li Kong!" Li kongsuyan road.
"No, of course not. I can't help it!" Ling Cang quickly waved his hand to answer a way, but in the heart the head is to set off a storm.
His grandson really surprised him more and more. The future of the Ling family will rise because of him.
With the arrival of all the family representatives, the contest is about to begin.
First, the heads of the three major families spoke, and then the families submitted their comments and awards, which were handed over to Li Kong and Yuan Ping for safekeeping. After the final ranking, they handed out the comments and awards. They were also the judges of this competition.
Everything is ready. The competitors are ready to draw lots to decide the arena and opponents.
Ling Xiao goes to the nearest draw box with Ling Feng, the leader of her family.
At this time, a indifferent voice came from one side, "Ling Feng, long time no see.".
The speaker is a young man with a gloomy face. Although his appearance is not handsome, it gives people a sense of calm maturity, but his eyes like poisonous snakes are very uncomfortable.
He is Li Tianhao, the leader of the Li family. Four years ago, he was a low-level Xuanshi at the age of 21. Now he is just 25 years old. I'm afraid he has broken through to a middle-level Xuanshi.On Ling's side, a young man in a golden military uniform shook his hair and looked at Li Tianhao, saying, "Li Tianhao didn't expect you to be promoted, but it's fun. I hope you don't lose too fast.".
Li Tianhao said with a proud smile, "Ling Feng, you are still so arrogant, but I just want to give you your words. Don't forget that you were my loser four years ago, and this year... Is no exception.".
Ling Feng seems to be said to have hurt his feet. He clenches his fists to death. He squints his angry eyes and says, "you wait and see, I will pay back the shame four years ago.".
Four years ago, Li Tianhao and Ling Feng were both top five candidates. The two fought for the fourth place. Because of their equal strength, the fight was very fierce. Unfortunately, Ling Feng was metallic and was restrained by Li Tianhao's fire attribute. Finally, he lost to Li Tianhao by one move.
In the past four years, Ling Feng has always wanted to avenge his failure.
"Don't worry, I'll wait for you in the challenge arena. I hope you don't lose too fast," Li Tianhao said with great pride. Then he put his eyes on Ling Xiao and said, "are you Ling Xiao? Meteorite city is a rare genius in a century
