The rest of the people were also puzzled. Why did the rules for all these years suddenly change so easily? Where did this ancestral rule lead to?
"This is the Misty Secret Realm's own wish. This old man still has doubts." The leader of the elders stroked his beard with one hand and lightly tapped the handle of his chair with the other.
The calm before the storm was like a giant boulder pressing down on everyone's heart. Everyone spent what seemed like an ordinary night in their own hearts.
"Hey hey hey, move aside. Don't block them if you don't want to go in!" Just as Leng Lingqi was deep in thought, her thoughts were suddenly interrupted by someone who wanted to enter the training grounds.
Leng Lingqi tilted her body, wanting to give way to someone else, but didn't expect her right foot to miss, and fall back.
The dense crowd made Leng Lingqi somewhat unable to react. Just as she was about to fall down again in front of the crowd, a pair of broad and thick hands suddenly wrapped around her waist.
At that moment, Leng Lingqi felt a sense of reassurance and also a sense of familiarity in her heart.
After Leng Lingqi stood still, she awkwardly coughed: "Er, thank you!"
Needless to say, Tian Li had to be the one who had extended a helping hand. Tian Li's iceberg like face did not show any obvious emotion. "It was nothing more than a small effort."
On the surface, Leng Lingqi looked a little embarrassed, but because she was blocked by the imprint, she couldn't really see through it.
The crowd that rushed up behind gradually pushed the two people forward, and in the end, the two found a place to sit beside Leng Huaiyu and Wanyan.
After a long while, everyone finally took their seats, and the whispers gradually faded away.
Waiting until the crowd no longer made any noise, the white-bearded elder lightly tiptoed towards the round altar, and from the looks of it, his withered tree-like body firmly landed on the black stone platform like a soaring cloud.
He stroked his beard and spoke slowly, "I, Shuofeng, have hosted the great martial arts exercise for dozens of years and have never looked forward to it so much today. But it's different today, because the Misty Secret Realm had actually opened up automatically, waiting for the victor of the competition to enter. "
The crowd suddenly boiled over!
The Misty Secret Realm actually opened by itself, what kind of extraordinary talent was this to be able to receive the Misty Secret Realm's favor!
"Everyone, quiet!" Elder Shuofeng waved his hand, signalling everyone not to be agitated, "We do not know why Misty Secret Realm made such a choice. Right now, the most important thing is to do my best to show off my skills in the upcoming matches. We will wait and see who will be selected by the Misty Secret Realm! "
A thunderous round of applause rang out from all around the round table. This time's martial arts practice had truly been filled with unprecedented enthusiasm!
After the applause had died down, Shuofeng corrected himself and began to announce the rules and procedures of the competition.
"For the first round of the martial demonstration, all disciples that want to participate will be registered. After the registration will be completed, the first round will be conducted in groups of two." Shuo Feng paused, and then continued, "Be careful, as long as the opponent does not admit defeat, then even if a person dies, he will not be held responsible."
The implication of this sentence was that if you couldn't win, then hurry up and admit defeat. If you didn't admit defeat and someone else killed you, then no one would care about you.
However, everyone knew these rules, and it was only a reminder.
However, it was Tian Li's first time hearing of such a rule. A normal competition could be stopped just like that, but Leng house's rules did have some guts.
Tian Li squinted his eyes, observing the Elder Shuofeng with interest. Xia Feng seemed to sense a pair of strange eyes looking at him, and released his mental energy to search for him, but to no avail.
However, Tian Li's condition completely fell into Leng Xingyi's eyes.
Today's great martial arts exercise was left to the elders and he, as the Patriarch, could only be "reduced" to being a spectator. However, this gave him enough time to judge the situation.
What he did not expect was that no matter how hard he tried, he could not find out what was going on with Tian Li. This person was quite interesting.
After Shuofeng announced the rules of the first round, the disciples who wanted to participate in the competition swarmed over, blocking the path of the registrants, all talking about his information.
"I … I … Leng Changjun." "Fly." "Leng Xueqiao …"
However, Leng Lingqi did not fight over it. She waited until all the people had been registered before slowly walking over. At this moment, she saw Leng Huaiyu walking over from another direction.
"Name?" After waiting for a long time and seeing that no one said anything, the person who registered said it in a displeased tone.
"Leng Lingqi."
The person holding the pen suddenly stopped. "You? Are you sure you want to take the written test? "
Although they had frequently heard about Leng Lingqi's affairs recently, they had always felt that Leng Lingqi was just using this as a sneak attack.
Who would be able to change from a good-for-nothing to a martial artist with decent cultivation in just a month's time? This was simply illogical.
Leng Lingqi faced the other party's doubt, and did not have any intention of retreating, "I'm sure, Leng Lingqi."
People at the same level shook their heads. There weren't many young people like him left, but unfortunately, he was just a piece of trash.
Wan Yan and Leng Huaiyu who were sitting in the stands didn't even sweat from their hands. Although they believed in Leng Lingqi's capabilities, the people who were spectating the show beside them couldn't help but have some sarcastic remarks.
"Oh god, so it's true. She's really going to participate in the competition." A gossipy woman covered her mouth and said to the people around her.
"He really doesn't want to die." Those who heard this could not help but shake their heads.
Tian Li really had nothing to say to these ignorant fools. These people had mediocre aptitudes and would not be able to accomplish anything in their entire lives. In other words, they only knew how to talk back.
Tian Li smiled contemptuously. It was better to ignore them, "Don't worry. She has her own plans. Trust her."
