Inverted Peak Mountain, Notre-Dame.
On the left side of the square, there was a Ten Nations Pagoda.
There were a total of ten floors on the Ten Nations Pagoda, and each floor had a vermilion door with the name of the Ten Nations written on the plaque on the door.
At the highest point of the Ten Nations Pagoda was the word "Qi Nation", which was ranked first and looked down on the human race. Below it were Wu Guo, Shu Nation, Yun Nation, Jia Nation, Gyeongo, Yue Nation, Shen Nation, Jingguo, and Gu Nation.
Whenever the people of the major nations passed by the square, they would hold their heads high, but the people of Shen Nation, Jingguo, and Gu Nation would blush and not dare to look at the Ten Nations Pagoda.
The order of the Ten Nations Pagoda was exactly the same as last year's Ten Nations Grand Tournament.
In the literary world of the grand tournament, Fang Yun entered the majestic Mount Lu and disappeared, while a few Scholars stared at the steep mountain in a daze.
"There are four questions for the journey this time. Apart from the first question, which is like a godsend to Fang Yun, and the second question, which is fair to him, the last two questions are almost making things difficult for the Scholars. However, he managed to suppress all of them. He's really an extraordinary person. "
"In the past, there were similar questions, but look carefully at this mountain. It's far more majestic than before. This mountain is not easy to climb."
Yun Xunsong cupped his fists and looked up. "May I know how we can climb the mountain?"
"You can use your talent, but you can't use it to mobilize the essence energy of heaven and earth. You guys … just admit that you're unlucky. "
The Scholars didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The person in charge of the journey this time was definitely a great Confucian scholar. Logically speaking, the great Confucian scholar should have answered seriously, but in the end, he said something that seemed to be gloating, which was really rare.
Ma Yuan smiled and said, "I understand what this great Confucian scholar means. When the great Confucian scholars set the questions, they must have realized that Fang Yun and Yan Yukong, the two Scholars, would be there. They also knew that the last two questions were not beneficial to the Scholars. In the end, the fourth question helped Fang Yun. "
Kong Deyu suddenly humphed coldly and said, "I heard that a certain great Confucian scholar objected to the questions of the Ten Thousand Miles Journey, so they changed them to be beneficial to the Scholars. Go for wool and come home shorn. "
The scholars present were well-informed. After listening to the questions, they immediately understood that it was very likely that the Lei family was making things difficult for Fang Yun. However, it was also obvious that someone was helping Fang Yun. Therefore, the first and fourth questions were related to poetry.
"In my opinion, the most unlucky one is Yan Yukong. With his ability, he should be ranked in the top thirty among the one hundred and ten people on this journey. But now that the third and fourth questions are out, he might be ranked in the top seventy. "
Xun Li glared at Lei Shisan from Jia Country. Even though the Lei family and Gyeongo viewed Fang Yun as their enemy, Fang Yun was still a member of the Lei family. However, they had always been opponents in the Ten Nations Grand Tournament. Last year, Jia Nation was in seventh place while Gyeongo was in eighth place. If the Lei family really interfered with the questions of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament this year and caused Gyeongo's results to drop, Gyeongo would also be a victim.
Lei Shisan immediately turned his head to look at the other side, ignoring Xun Li's attitude. He then said, "Everyone, hurry up and write your poems. If you're late, Fang Yun might be lucky enough to avoid a mountain."
Ma Yuan said, "Don't worry. Since we can't mobilize essence energy in the next 150 kilometers and can only use our bare hands and talent energy, Fang Yun won't run too fast. He's a High Scholar after all, and we're Scholars. There's a little hope of catching up to him. "
Lei Shisan and Xun Li immediately looked better. That was good news for Gyeongo and the Lei family.
To their surprise, Kong Deyu shook his head and said, "I've talked about Fang Yun with my cousin, De Lun. He's different. Not to mention that he dares to eat the Dragon Pearl, he has the talent energy to descend from the heavens three times before becoming a Sage. Let his body be close to that of an ordinary demon general. Fang Yun is definitely better than us when it comes to walking and climbing barehanded! "
Dragon Shisan and Xun Li pulled long faces.
In front of others, Mount Lu was a continuous mountain range. However, in front of Fang Yun, it was a translucent shadow that wouldn't affect him at all. Only the ten mountains formed by the students of the other ten academies would stop him.
Fang Yun began to run faster and faster. Soon, he surpassed the speed of an ordinary person in a short period of time.
Fang Yun's body was originally very weak, but after experiencing the descent of Qi six times, he ate many pseudo-dragon balls, received the illumination of moonlight, obtained the King of Stars, and was nourished by starlight. Recently, he entered the Celestial Tree and had been eating nutritious food from the palace. His body was no weaker than an ordinary demon general's!
At this moment, Fang Yun could fight a lion or a tiger with his bare hands.
At this moment, Fang Yun's running speed was already that of an ordinary demon general, which was close to the speed of an ordinary High Scholar using a High Scholar's Haste Battle Poem!
On the vast black land, Fang Yun ran forward like a leopard.
The scholars in front of the academies of literature in the Ten Nations were all dumbfounded.
Fang Yun ran for half an hour, and the ground trembled and there were rumbling sounds in front of him.
Fang Yun slowed down and saw a tall mountain rising from the ground. However, in terms of height, steepness, and thickness, it was not as good as Mount Lu, which he had first materialized.
There was more than one Mount Lu, and it was a mountain range. However, this mountain seemed to be only a peak that was more than 3,000 feet tall.
Fang Yun carefully observed the mountain and immediately thought of the best climbing route in his mind. He then rushed up the mountain and stepped on the protrusions or trees of the mountain to quickly climb up.
Fang Yun almost didn't stop, and he climbed higher and higher. He was even more agile than an ape.
Not long after, Fang Yun climbed to the top of the mountain and realized that it was indeed a lone peak. However, it was easier to go up the mountain than to go down. Fang Yun spent more time at the top of the mountain to observe and think about the route down the mountain before slowly climbing down. He was even slower than before.
Just like that, Fang Yun ran for a while, climbed a mountain, ran for a while, and climbed another mountain …
In the beginning, many people were still paying attention to Fang Yun, but they soon got sick of it because there was no suspense. Hence, they began to look at the people in Mount Lu.
Those people got lost after entering Mount Lu and kept going around in circles.
The people behind continued to enter Mount Lu, but apart from the people of Jingguo who could treat Mount Lu as nothing, the others entered but did not come out.
When Fang Yun climbed the first mountain, the fastest twelve Jinshi had already entered Mount Lu. When Fang Yun climbed the third mountain, they were still on Mount Lu.
When Fang Yun stood at the top of the ninth mountain, Kong Deyu walked out of Mount Lu with a glum look in his eyes.
"Fang Yun, you bastard!"
Slowly, more and more Jinshi left Mount Lu and continued to travel for thousands of miles.
After an unknown period of time, Pan Jueming, the Jinshi of Jingguo, finally walked out of Mount Lu. He gently wiped the sweat on his forehead and looked around in bewilderment because he couldn't see anyone.
Pan Jueming ran towards the next mountain. As a Jinshi, his body was far stronger than that of ordinary people and he could run at the speed of an ordinary person for a day.
Not long after. Pan Jueming climbed to the top of the second mountain and looked in front, only to see no one.
Pan Jueming thought, 'I'm a Jinshi of Jingguo. Even if Jingguo ranked eleventh last year, I'm not that far behind the people of other nations. There's no one in front of me, so it can't be that I'm behind everyone. Could it be … that I'm lucky enough to have walked out of that mountain in advance? '
Pan Jueming turned around to look at Mount Lu in the fog and clenched his right fist, full of fighting spirit.
"Today will be the day that I, Pan Jueming, become famous in the Ten Nations!"
Pan Jueming took a deep look at Mount Lu. He began to descend the mountain.
Pan Jueming climbed one mountain after another, and finally came down from the tenth mountain. After running for a while, he saw a stone door, but there was no one in front of it.
After being stunned for a moment, Pan Jueming smiled. He knew that people from all over the Ten Nations must be looking at him at this moment. He adjusted his clothes and coughed softly. He walked towards the exit with his head held high.
The more he walked, the more excited he became. When he reached the door, he finally couldn't help but turn around and look at the mountain range. He smiled and said, "Everyone, I'll go out first. Please continue to work hard."
Pan Jueming walked out of the door of the literary realm with a victorious smile.
Light flickered in front of his eyes and Pan Jueming appeared in the venue of the Confucius Academy.
At this moment, the sky in the east was bright. It was already the morning of the second day.
Pan Jueming originally thought that he would hear cheers and congratulations. Hence, he raised his head high with a faint smile on his face.
However, in the next moment … Pan Jueming frowned because what he heard was not cheers but laughter. Tens of thousands of people were laughing together.
Pan Jueming hurriedly scanned the crowd and saw that tens of thousands of people were convulsing with laughter. Some of them were even holding their stomachs and laughing out loud.
He hurriedly looked at the area where the Jinshi of Jingguo were seated, only to discover that there were ten people seated in each area except for nine people in Gu.
The Jinshi of Gu covered their faces with their hands and hung their heads low, pretending not to see Pan Jueming.
"Gu, Pan Jueming, Liu Chou." A voice sounded in the sky.
Pan Jueming's face quickly turned from pale to red, and then from red to gray.
Liu Chou was the minimum number of chips to pass the Journey of 10,000 Li. If one had less than six chips, they would fail.
Only then did Pan Jueming realize that he was the last person to complete the Journey of 10,000 Li. Besides, he had indeed become famous in the Ten Nations for saying those words in front of hundreds of millions of people.
Fang Yun smiled and shook his head. At this moment, it had already been ten hours since he completed the Journey of 10,000 Li. He had even slept for two hours while lying on the Jingguo seat. The rest of the time, he had been reading in the world of books with his eyes closed. The reason he couldn't leave was because he was waiting for Pan Jueming.
Many people in the venue had left, and the weakest among them was a High Scholar. They could stay up for three days and three nights without sleeping. They had also been waiting for Pan Jueming.
"The first round of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament has ended, and the number of chips of each nation has been displayed on the screen. The Gu Nation is ranked eleventh and will not be able to participate in the second round. Everyone, please go back and rest. The second round of the tournament will begin in the afternoon. "The host of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament announced the end of the first round.
Fang Yun was about to look at the screen in the center of the venue with the others when he heard the complaints of the people from the Confucius Academy.
"Fang Yun, that bastard. In the past hundred years, there has never been a time when the first place of the Journey of 10,000 Li has been lower than 80 chips!"
Fang Yun smiled helplessly and continued to look at the screen, which only showed the sum of the chips of the ten people from each nation.
In first place, the Confucius Academy, with 78 chips.
In second place, the Shu Academy, with 76 chips.
In third place, the Enlightenment Academy, with 76 chips.
In fourth place, the Wu Guo Academy, with 75 chips.
In fifth place, the Yun Academy, with 74 chips.
In sixth place, the Jia Nation Academy, with 68 chips.
In seventh place, the Jingguo Academy, with 68 chips.
In eighth place, the Yue Academy, with 66 chips.
In ninth place, the Gyeongo Academy, with 65 chips.
In tenth place, the Shen Academy, with 63 chips.
In eleventh place, the Gu Nation Academy, with 62 chips.
The last row was gray.
Fang Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at the final ranking. The number of chips was the lowest in the history of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament.
Kong De Lun said, "Fang Yun is too evil. He knows that Jingguo can't beat us, so he lowered our chips to increase Jingguo's ranking!"
