"I never expected that a proud daughter of heaven like her would come to watch the Kingdom's selection preliminaries. Who is she here to see? Could it be me?"
Although it was unlikely, but thinking about it, who else in the Kingdom's selection preliminaries was worthy of attention other than himself?
Even a first-rate person like Lian Chengyu was far inferior to him.
Thinking of this, Tao Yunxiao felt as if he had been injected with chicken blood. Regardless of whether the other party was here to see him or just to watch the show, he would put in 120% of his effort to shine in this election and win the attention of the proud girl!
If he wanted to shine, just standing here was not enough.
And following that, Zhang Tan was exactly what Tao Yunxiao wanted.
Zhang Tan unsealing the beast bone was just the beginning of the preliminaries. To pass the preliminaries, he had to endure the pressure of the beast horn and move forward!
Zhang Tan loudly said, "A bunch of good-for-nothings! A dead desolate beast's horn, yet you can't withstand it! Other than wasting food and creating feces, what else can you do in this world!? Those who can't withstand it, scram. You are not suitable for martial arts! "
"I now announce that the criteria for passing the preliminary test is to walk within twenty steps of this beast horn with your own strength and persevere for more than ten breaths of time. Every ten steps closer to the beast horn, the pressure will double. Are you a mule or a horse? Pull me out for a spin. Begin!"
Zhang Tan's words could be heard ten miles away. At this moment, Zhang Tan was only a few steps away from the beast horn. While enduring the pressure of the beast horn, he was still able to shout. Just this alone made many people admire him.
"I wonder what realm Zhang Tan is in. Maybe … he has surpassed Purple Blood …" With this thought, Lian Chengyu took a step forward towards the desolate bone beast horn!
As he took a step forward, Lian Chengyu's gaze drifted towards Yi Yun.
Lian Chengyu was surprised that Yi Yun was able to stand there in one piece. He never expected that this little bastard, whose ancestors had been poor for generations, could so easily withstand the pressure of the beast horn.
A bumpkin can also have Spirit?
Lian Chengyu was displeased. Yi Yun's talent in martial arts was good, and his luck was also good. He did not know what opportunities he encountered for his strength to improve so quickly.
Now, this kid even had Spirit. Could it be that he could really achieve great things?
Lian Chengyu was indignant. He believed that he was the true Son of Heaven of the Lian tribal clan. He had accumulated the fortunes of the Lian tribal clan for generations. How could Yi Yun, a peasant with a life of a slave, compare to him?
With this thought in mind, Lian Chengyu strode towards the beast horn. He wanted to prove that not only could he easily approach twenty steps, he could even approach fifteen steps, ten steps, and even touch the beast horn!
Lian Chengyu's pace was very fast. He was going all out to prove himself!
However, after just ten steps, Lian Chengyu felt that the pressure from the beast horn had increased significantly!
The Wasteland beast phantom in the air had an incomparably real and terrifying power. Its eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and its fangs seemed to have torn apart countless human warriors.
This Desolate Beast phantom image made Lian Chengyu feel afraid to face it.
"This is fake! It's just an illusion! "
Lian Chengyu told himself this, but no matter what he said, he still felt a chill down his spine.
This was like a person who was afraid of ghosts going to the toilet at night. Although he kept telling himself that there were no ghosts in this world, he would still feel creeped out. If a black cat jumped out at this moment, or a cold wind blew, it would scare him half to death.
Lian Chengyu had already taken fifteen steps. At this time, another person, Tao Yunxiao, was even faster. He had already taken thirty steps.
After taking thirty steps, Tao Yunxiao felt the pressure for the first time.
"What desolate beast's horn is this? How can it be so powerful?" Tao Yunxiao furrowed his brows. At this moment, he looked around and realized that his speed was ranked first. This made Tao Yunxiao very satisfied. No matter what, I'm the first person to step within the twenty steps range, and also the person with the strongest Spirit in the first round of preliminaries!
But this was reasonable. Spirit was a person's courage, willpower, and self-confidence. It also included strength.
A person with a strong Spirit might not necessarily be strong, and might even be weak.
But a person with great strength would naturally have a strong Spirit!
Tao Yunxiao raised his head and looked at the airship in the sky. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Beauty, are you looking at me from the sky? I've taken first place. Although it was as easy as taking something out of my pocket, it's not worth mentioning. But this is just the beginning. In the future, my light will become more and more dazzling! "
Tao Yunxiao carried on moving forward with the most fearless, most heroic posture!
And at this time, on the airship in the sky, a girl in white was drinking a pot of flower tea. Her actions of pouring and drinking the tea did not deliberately imitate the etiquette of nobles, but still looked extremely elegant.
It was as if her every move was a natural etiquette.
The girl in white looked out the window, but she did not pay any attention to Tao Yunxiao's heroic posture. She was here today to see Yi Yun.
Compared to the beauty of the girl drinking tea, in front of the girl was a wretched fat old man who was chewing on a Salt Baked Chicken.
The Salt Baked Chicken was naturally made by Yi Yun. As the fat elder ate, he drank wine. He did not use a wine cup, but instead, he used a tiny wine flask and poured the wine into his oily mouth.
"How was it? Did that kid pass the test?"
The old man said vaguely. From his point of view, the Kingdom's selection was nothing worth paying attention to. If not for Yi Yun causing Lin Xintong's natural Yin Meridians to sense something, he would not even bother coming out to watch.
"Not yet, he's standing still …"
Lin Xintong gently frowned. What was he doing? Why was he standing there in a daze?
Lin Xintong did not think that this test could stump Yi Yun. Although she did not think highly of Yi Yun's talent in martial arts … Well, to be precise, Yi Yun did not have any talent in martial arts.
But just based on Yi Yun's Tempered Body and Dragon Pulse, it would not be difficult for him to get within twenty steps of the beast horn, unless he did not have the slightest bit of Spirit.
Although she had only met Yi Yun by chance, Lin Xintong did not want to see Yi Yun have a mediocre performance at the Kingdom's selection. This was probably because Yi Yun had touched her natural Yin Meridians. Lin Xintong subconsciously hoped that Yi Yun was no ordinary person. This way, she could see a greater hope, and there might even be a chance of joining up her terminated meridians.
"Hahaha, is this kid a coward?" Old man Su wiped the oil from his mouth and stretched his chubby head out to look down the porthole. Indeed, he saw Yi Yun standing there in a daze.
"Oh, this kid is dumb, he's watching the show!"
Actually, if Yi Yun was really a coward, old man Su would not be surprised. After all, Yi Yun was a child. He had never seen such a large desolate beast phantom image. It would be good if a child did not wet his pants.
But from old man Su's point of view, Yi Yun was no ordinary child.
"This is interesting. The little thing that Zhang Tan took out was a beast horn that Marquis Wenyun cut off after killing an ancient desolate beast, the Fierce Divine Tiger. It was originally about ten feet long, but it was carved by a Desolate Heaven Master and shrunk by a hundred times to become like this. Marquis Wenyun later used this thing to make the Jin Long Wei's sixth army's commander seal."
"The Jin Long Wei's commander seals are usually in the hands of the various generals. They are used to mobilize troops. It seems that with the Purple Clouds' Birth in the Cloud Wilderness, the sixth army's reckless General Yan Menglong has joined in the fun. Hence, this commander seal has been used as a prop for the Kingdom's selection."
Old man Su and Marquis Wenyun clearly had a good personal relationship. He knew a lot about the Jin Long Wei.
"I want to see this kid's embarrassment. If he were to go on a killing spree, I wouldn't be bothered. It's more fun to make a fool of himself!"
Old man Su said gloatingly. Lin Xintong was speechless hearing this. She did not know why old man Su would be happy if Yi Yun did not perform well.
At this moment, Yi Yun stood out from the crowd.
Those who could withstand the pressure from the desolate beast's bone had long walked towards the desolate bone. Those who could not withstand it were either paralyzed on the ground or ran away.
