Qianzhou City is located in the northern part of Liang State, and a few hundred miles north is Jin State. Geographically speaking, Qianzhou City plays a defensive role and is an important town in the north of Liang State.
The naming of Qianzhou City is based on the surname of the Qian family, which can be seen from the status of the Qian family in Liangguo.
Qianzhou City's five major families have been led by the Qian family for many years, and it has always been this way.
The trial grounds for the five major families' younger generations were located in the empty trial grounds of the Qian family.
Several families with children who came to participate in the trial arrived early at the trial venue.
Ye Feng and Zhen Xue Tian stood together, waiting for the trial to begin, but their eyes were not idle, constantly looking around in all directions.
This was his first time participating in the trial, and before coming, he had already heard Ye Qingyun's detailed explanation on the road. The content of each trial is different, and the topic is issued by Wang Hai Pai. If the performance is excellent, you will be selected by Wang Hai Pai.
Qian's family as a landlord would not neglect their guests. Qian Guanghan, the master of the outer hall of the Qian family, was chatting with the masters of several other families.
Before long, a loud shout was heard: "The leader of the Carefree Sect has arrived!"
Qian's family head personally accompanied two cultivators to the trial grounds.
Everyone looked in a few directions, two cultivators were very young, looking like they were just over twenty years old, while the master of the Qian family, Qian Cheng Qi, was leading the way with a devout expression.
"Two immortal elders, five major families' children participating in the trial, a total of nine people, have all made preparations." Qian Cheng was already over 60 years old, yet he showed such respect to two young men, but everyone thought it was nothing out of the ordinary. The ones being respected were not the two cultivators themselves, but rather the enormous entity behind them - the Wang Hai Sect.
Zong Qiang and Ou Xiaoyu were just two ordinary disciples of the Wang Hai Sect, this was their first time going down the mountain to represent the Wang Hai Sect in recruiting new students, they still seemed a bit unnatural in demeanor, but due to the sect's upbringing, they didn't show any fear.
"Little Wen, sister, don't you think it's time to start?" Zong Qiang turned his head towards Ou Xiaowen.
Ye Feng secretly glanced at Ou Xiaoyu, who was wearing a white shirt that fluttered gently in the wind, looking like a fairy descending to the mortal world, untainted by any worldly desires.
The cultivator is indeed extraordinary, and even his temperament is different from that of ordinary people. Ye Feng couldn't help but feel a sense of longing for cultivation in his heart.
"Master brother, let's get started soon, we still have to go back and hand in our assignment." Ou Xiaoyu's voice was like the clear morning song of a oriole, crisp and pleasant.
"This time, I'm here to select a disciple in Qianzhou City. The rules are simple, this is an illusion array." As he spoke, Zongqiang took out a talisman from his bosom, shook his palm, and the talisman floated into the air, then he whispered incantations under his breath.
Only to see the talisman paper in the air a loud noise, then turned into a majestic mountain fell on the trial field.
"This is a talisman!" The people present were mostly knowledgeable and naturally recognized that the thing Zong Qiang threw out was a talisman. Only Ye Feng didn't quite understand, and he was very interested in how a piece of paper could transform into a great mountain.
"Wang Hai's faction is really taking this selection of disciples seriously, even willing to use a Symbolic Treasure like that." Ye Qingyun's face was full of envy, as compared to the other four families, the Ye family was currently the most impoverished.
Zong Qiang looked at the crowd with a pleased expression, feeling that he had made enough of an impression, before lightly clearing his throat.
Everyone immediately stopped discussing and focused their attention on Zong Qiang once again.
"This time the rule is that all disciples who participate in the trial will enter the illusion array, where several Illusion Fruits grow on the high mountains of the array. Each person collects five, and the two people who get five Illusion Fruits the fastest will enter the Wanghai Sect."
Nine choose two, the first two people to get five mysterious fruits are the winners and enter the Wanghai faction for cultivation. The others fail and withdraw.
Ye Feng looked around and saw that the Ye family only had himself, the Zhen family only had Zhen Xue Tian, the Ai family had Ai Bin Ke and Ai Qiang who were both beaten by him, the Tu family only had Tu Qing Yu, while the Gan family, as one of the five major families, surprisingly had four people participating in the trial, occupying half of the nine spots.
It seems that this task is a bit difficult, and the Qian family can get at least one seat. The young man who ranked first among the four was recognized as Ye Feng, who was actually the genius of the Qian family, Qian Hanpeng. The girl next to Qian Hanpeng was not inferior to him, she was Qian Yingni.
Among them, there are three girls participating in the trial this time. In terms of strength, Qian Yingxu and Zhen Xuetian are evenly matched, while Tu Qingyu is slightly weaker.
"Are you all ready? Let's enter the formation." Zong Qiang gestured for the nine people to enter the illusionary formation.
Under the gaze of the family's elders, nine people arrived at the entrance of the Mystic Formation.
"The Wan Hai Sect's illusionary array is just superficial, how about I add another layer of talismans to it?" Along with a loud noise, the nine people who had not yet entered the array felt that the high mountain in front of them suddenly changed, and after a flash of white light, it seemed like something was added inside the array.
"What person."
Everyone looked around, but no one was found.
"Come down, you cowardly rodents!" Zong Qiang's hand formed a sword gesture, and the long sword behind him flew into the air.
"Ding"
The long sword flew back upside down, motionless in mid-air.
"You little doll, you even dare to show off your trivial skills."
Zong Qiang's face changed from red to white in an instant, and his fortunes suddenly took a turn for the worse.
"The disciples of the Wanghai Sect are just this capable? I think you two should stop pretending to be mysterious here, lest you delay the future of good seedlings. These few people might as well enter my Qiankun Sect."
People of Qiankun Sect!
Everyone was stunned, one of the two major Xiu Zhen schools in Liang Guo. Generally speaking, the influence of Qian Kun School is mainly in the south of Liang Guo, and Wang Hai School is in the north. The two major schools basically do not invade each other. What are these people from Qian Kun School doing here?
Zong Qiang was also stunned. He knew that the Qiankun Sect and the Wanghai Sect had never gotten along, but a situation like this where they openly confronted each other had never happened before.
"Little doll, go back and tell the old guys of Wanghai Sect that these few people are taken by Qiankun Sect."
"Senior brother, you absolutely cannot retreat, otherwise it will be impossible to explain when we return." Ou Xiaoyu said in a low voice beside him.
"Ah, I understand." Zong Qiang's face turned serious, he reached back and pulled out the flying sword, tightly grasped it in his hand, whispered the incantation, and the flying sword shot out of his palm, heading towards where the Qiankun Sect cultivator was hiding.
"Little doll, since Flying Sword doesn't want you anymore, I'll fulfill your wish."
Isn't this guy looking for trouble? The previous blow has already been proven to be useless, and he's coming again. Is his brain sick? Ye Feng looked at him disdainfully from the side.
"Ding"
The flying sword flew back, and some gaps appeared on its blade.
"Haha, your flying sword is useless, let's see what other tricks you have."
"Boom!"
Before the laughter had even faded away, a deafening explosion shook the air, and the illusory array was on the verge of dispersing with a violent tremor.
"Boom"
As the explosion subsided, people steadied their stumbling bodies, and a figure fell to the ground.
"Good boy, I underestimated you, it turns out you still have a symbol soldier."
