Even Liu Mingyan, who was in second place, only obtained six prayer beads. She was left behind by him by a whole fold.
"Which sect's disciple is that? He's very handsome. "
These newcomers were a mix of fish and dragons. Many of them were young and inexperienced, but there were also many old foxes and scoundrels who had crawled and rolled around for several years. If fighting wasn't prohibited, then the entire Assembly would become incomparably chaotic, and there might even be deaths. Therefore, this rule was very necessary.
Shen Qingqiu's spirit was roused!
When he said "calculate", he didn't really mean to use his fingers to calculate, but rather, to gamble.
After the negotiations were finished, except for Qiu Qingge, everyone was happy. Shen Qingqiu happily placed his bet.
"The Assembly will last for seven days. After everyone enters the valley, a giant enchantment will be erected, covering the entire Jue Di Valley. For seven days, all participants who enter Jue Di Valley will be isolated from the outside world, unable to know what is happening outside. But the spectators will be able to know what is happening inside through the spirit eagles released into the air above the valley.
The entrance to the usually quiet and cold valley was suddenly flooded with over a thousand people. The mountain animals that had never seen humans before were all startled out. In every sense, it was extraordinarily lively.
Someone beamed with joy: "Sure enough, Gongyi Xiao is first as soon as he enters!"
"That white clothes really suit him, he's not any worse than Gongyi shixiong."
Jue Di Valley.
Cultivators also needed a bit of entertainment. Moreover, the stakes weren't gold and silver, which in their eyes were tacky things, but magic treasures, spirit stones, and even spots to send disciples to the other side to study. They wouldn't really bet on anything important, but it could also be considered a traditional entertainment program for the Immortal Alliance Assembly.
Shen Qingqiu: "Whose does it belong to if I win?"
"Admit, admit what? Dead girl, what did you say, do you dare say it again? "
Such an imposing move caused a ripple that was neither too big nor too small. Even Yue Qingyuan put down the Zhao Hua Temple abbot who was politely chatting with him and shifted his gaze. Shen Qingqiu saw that he wanted to say something but hesitated, saying: "Sect Head shixiong, I'm just playing around. I'm just trying to motivate Binghe a bit. "
A white-clothed youth was reflected on the crystal mirror. His figure was graceful like flowing water, yet his attacks were swift like lightning. In an instant, the mournful vengeful spirits that pounced at him were slashed into nothingness.
Even though the voice was extremely low, but what kind of people were the xiuzhe present? All of their senses were extremely clear. How could they not hear it? These women were too young, so they didn't pay attention and their private conversation was overheard. Fortunately, the elders were considerate enough to give face to the Sect Leader who was holding his forehead and pretending to take a nap. All of them pretended not to hear anything and looked straight ahead.
Yue Qingyuan was probably afraid that they would lose face outside, so he hurriedly smoothed things over: "Alright. He whispered. Of course. "
A dignified Sect Leader like Yue Qingyuan wouldn't play these games, but there were naturally people who were willing to join in the fun. Not long after, the stands were in full swing with dozens of bets. Many people bet on the outstanding disciples of their sects, such as Qi Qingqi betting on Liu Mingyan to win the championship.
Jue Di Valley spanned across seven undulating mountain ranges, and was covered in verdant greenery. Among them, there were surging undercurrents, waterfalls, grotesque rocks, secluded valleys, and high peaks. Just like its name, there was always a terrain that seemed to be "forced into a desperate situation". But in the next moment, one could see the twists and turns of the mountain peaks. In Shen Qingqiu's eyes, it was a necessary item for expeditions and housekeeping.
Qiu Qingge: "Whose fault is it if we lose?"
Yue Qingyuan: "Yours."
All the cultivators muttered in their hearts, why had they never heard of the name Luo Binghe? Actually, they couldn't be blamed. Luo Binghe's current style of doing things was relatively modest and low-key, unwilling to take credit. He always silently left after finishing a good deed and completing a mission. His reputation couldn't be spread, so he didn't shine brightly. The bystanders didn't know the reason, so they just thought that Shen Qingqiu was really like he said, just looking for good luck to motivate his disciple.
The first day of the Immortal Alliance Conference, it was nearing midnight.
In order to break the awkwardness, someone coughed twice and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoists, unlike the previous conferences, can you also calculate what new talents will appear in this Immortal Alliance Conference?"
Yue Qingyuan: "Mine."
But, he wasn't alone.
"But Gongyi shixiong not only has an extraordinary appearance, but his spiritual power is also high. How can he be compared?"
Qiu Qingge sneered: "Just play around. That Qing Jing Peak of yours, do you have a thousand spirit stones dug through? "
Shen Qingqiu was speechless. Indeed, there wasn't!
Finally, the Huan Hua Palace disciple sternly emphasized: "Fighting and snatching beads between sects is strictly prohibited! If anyone is found to be fighting each other in private or using despicable means to snatch other people's beads, they will immediately be disqualified and will not be allowed to participate in the conference for three years! "
"Over a hundred kinds of demons have already been placed in the valley, totaling nearly five thousand. Every time a demon is taken down, a bead can be obtained from its body. Demons of different levels will have a large difference in the spiritual energy contained in the beads. Does everyone have a golden thread strung on their wrist? "
A round, golden moon hung high in the sky. The stands were brightly lit.
He was the type of person who was "handsome, had a good family background, high talent, liked by girls, high-spirited, successful youth, but unfortunately, with the main character present, you must become cannon fodder." Although most of the people present had bet on him becoming the champion, it was a pity that he wouldn't be able to stay at the top for long before being kicked down by Luo Binghe.
In other words, in less than an hour after entering the field, he had eliminated twelve demons and obtained twelve beads!
Everyone below the stage immediately raised their wrists, displaying the golden thread strung on their wrists. It looked quite spectacular.
There were more than a hundred spiritual eagles that were specially controlled by people in the field. The silver rings on their claws were embedded with special crystals. When they soared, they could see everything below and project the images onto the crystal mirrors in front of the high platform. The effect was not much different from that of surveillance equipment.
To place a bet here, one only needed to write a few words and settle it afterwards. There was no need to show proof of wealth. Everyone here was a reputable person and wasn't afraid of reneging on a debt. He knew in his heart that this was a sure win and no loss, so he raised the stakes higher. In any case, no one knew how much money he had.
What followed was a bout of humiliation, laughter, and fooling around. As soon as Shen Qingqiu heard it, he knew that the object of their discussion was the white-clothed, elegant, and otherworldly Luo Binghe.
High platforms had already been set up on all four sides of the valley entrance for cultivators not participating in the conference to watch the battle. Colored flags representing each sect fluttered on the platforms. The special seats for the sect leaders were at the highest level. The Cang Qiong Mountain group, led by Yue Qingyuan, sat on the high platform.
Yue Qingyuan said, "I'll pay."
Three terms, that was twelve years.
On the golden list, the top ten names were all shining brightly. At this time, the first name had already become the three golden words "Gongyi Xiao." Followed by the number "12."
Most people acted alone. There were too many people and they had to work together to defeat the beads. How would they divide the beads? Or, they could only team up with familiar partners and at most two or three fellow disciples.
Among them, the one closest to Luo Binghe was a Huan Hua Palace disciple in light yellow clothes and holding a luminous pearl for illumination.
Of course, there were female cultivators who were extremely powerful, but on the whole, they weren't strong enough and their mental fortitude wasn't strong enough. They often needed help from others. They usually teamed up with good juniors and sisters. They joked and joked along the way and didn't do anything serious. They basically didn't make a name for themselves.
"Tsk tsk, you can't bear to see people say that Gongyi shixiong isn't good, right? Sure enough, you immediately refuted it. Admit it! "
This Gongyi Xiao looked like a proud son of heaven, overflowing with aggressiveness. In fact, haha, he was just cannon fodder that was half a coin higher than his own level.
He knew that when the time came for that soul-stirring great war and chaos to begin tonight, Luo Binghe's name would be unstoppable on the list!
To put it bluntly, he was betting on the rookie you favored.
Shen Qingqiu didn't need to think at all and directly bet five thousand spirit stones on Luo Binghe.
Qi Qingqi came over and cut in. "Zhangmen-shixiong, you're going to bet?"
This person's foundation was quite deep and his breath was abundant. The entire valley entrance, including the high platforms, could clearly hear his voice.
The participating rookies were arranged to stand neatly in formation, surrounding a huge natural stone platform in front of the valley.
The master of ceremonies continued: "After obtaining the prayer beads, string them on a golden wire and everyone's scores will be automatically ranked on the list."
Among the four sects, Cang Qiong Mountain Sect was the most comprehensive. Each of the twelve peaks had their own strengths and worked from multiple fronts. Temples and monasteries were naturally the headquarters of monks, Taoists, and other monks. Huan Hua Palace was a bit more complicated. Their sect's guiding ideology was diverse, and they were experts in Qimen escape techniques. They interacted with the secular world the most, and their level of magic was unclear. But there was no doubt that they were the wealthiest. Every time, it was their family that put up the most money.
In addition, there were countless small and medium-sized sects participating. So in the end, more than a thousand people would sign up for Jue Di Valley.
Shen Qingqiu smiled but didn't say anything as he listened to the unceasing praises of him.
Luo Binghe was walking slowly through the forest. He was spotless and didn't look tired. His eyes were like stars, as if they could see straight through crystal mirrors.
Because of the large number of people, twelve different entrances were set up. The sects were disorganized and entered in batches. The participating newcomers nervously stepped into the boundaries of Jue Di Valley and began their journey. On the high platform, the seniors who had already made a name for themselves had already finished a round of bets. They were calm and unruffled, exchanging pointers, chatting, and even eating melon seeds.
The main participants were the four major cultivation sects. Cang Qiong Mountain Sect took the lead, followed closely by Zhao Hua Temple, Tian Yi Monastery, and Huan Hua Palace.
After Shen Qingqiu took his seat, a white-haired old man with a graceful bearing sitting next to him greeted the people from Cang Qiong Mountain Sect and nodded to him: "Master Shen."
Shen Qingqiu finally found a mirror among the numerous crystal mirrors that reflected the current situation on Luo Binghe's side.
In fact, they weren't the only ones secretly watching and discussing. Even among the participating disciples below the stone platform, there were quite a few young girls quietly watching Luo Binghe.
Luo Binghe's name was currently in the middle, and the number behind it was only "1." Shen Qingqiu wasn't the least bit worried.
However, on Luo Binghe's side, there were seven or eight people following him. Moreover, they weren't weak women or young disciples. This situation was somewhat eye-catching. Immediately, there were people who didn't even look at Gongyi Xiao's heroic bearing and turned to look strangely at this bloated team.
And below the high platform, after the newcomers had sworn their oaths in unison, they officially began to enter.
Shen Qingqiu was so idle that his bones itched. He pretended to stare intently at the stage, his mind already wandering to the ninth heaven. Suddenly, a few female disciples of the Sect Leader whispered to each other.
Not long after, a Huan Hua Palace disciple walked onto the stone platform. After all, they were the ones who paid the most money, so there was nothing wrong with them deciding who to support. The thousand people below the platform gradually quieted down and focused their attention to listen to him announce the general assembly's matters.
The ranking list hung across from the high platform. Although there were as many as eight, everyone's attention was, of course, only on the first gold ranking's top 100, or even the top 10. This was the so-called "there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts".
The old Palace Master of Huan Hua Palace was Luo Binghe's biological mother's master. Shen Qingqiu returned the greeting with the mentality of watching an imperial relative.
