The square was especially solemn today.
The surroundings were filled with guards in silver armor. Their armor was bright and shiny, and their auras were extraordinary. They surrounded the entire square, and did not allow other people to enter.
Although the square was surrounded, there were still many people who stopped to watch.
This was a grand event in Linfu City. Naturally, many people wanted to come and join in the fun. Therefore, the outer periphery of the square was tightly cordoned off.
"Look, Qin Xiao is here!"
"Is he Qin Xiao? Why does he look no different from other people? He doesn't have any arrogance. Compared with Princess Nangong Ling, he is too far away. But in terms of talent and potential, Qin Xiao is not inferior to Princess Nangong Ling. "
"Yes, Qin Xiao is too low-key. He is very down-to-earth and doesn't have any arrogance. It is said that he comes from a humble background. Maybe it is because of this that Qin Xiao is so approachable. It is said that many people can talk to Qin Xiao. "
"That's right. It's said that many people went to hug Qin Xiao's thigh. Look, there are so many people behind Qin Xiao. They are so envious. "
"Haha, if you are so envious, you can also flatter Qin Xiao. It is not shameful. Who knows, we might really be able to please Qin Xiao. "
"I want to go, but I don't want to now. He is going to enter the square soon."
… …
As soon as Qin Xiao appeared, it immediately caused a huge commotion. Countless eyes looked over, and many flattering voices came in an endless stream. Many girls even boldly confessed to Qin Xiao, but it was unknown whether their confessions were true or not.
Fortunately, Qin Xiao was used to such a scene, so he didn't feel anything.
Shopkeeper Gan He and Feng had been waiting there for a long time. When they saw Qin Xiao coming, the two of them smiled and came to greet him. Seeing Shopkeeper Gan He, Qin Xiao nodded slightly to him and stopped.
"Haha, congratulations, Lord Qin Xiao!" Shopkeeper Gan He cupped his hands and congratulated him as soon as he arrived. His face was full of smiles as he said, "In just a few hundred years, Lord Qin Xiao has shone brilliantly. Tsk tsk, this is something worth celebrating. This time, I believe that Lord Qin Xiao will definitely be one of the candidates for the Fu Xiang Immortal Palace's nominal disciple selection.
You will come out on top and shine brightly. "
"I will wait here for the good news from the Lord Qin Xiao. Mo Wang Bei and the rest of you, good luck too."
Qin Xiao nodded with a smile and replied politely, "Thank you for your kind words, shopkeeper Gan He."
"Ha ha ha! Come, come! I have prepared some fine wine for you. I wish you all success in your endeavors," Manager Gan He said, bringing out the fine wine he had prepared.
Wine that Shopkeeper Gan He could sell was clearly not ordinary.
Fatty Cai and the others also got a cup each.
Since it was Shopkeeper Gan He's kind intentions, Qin Xiao did not refuse. "Thank you."
Everyone thanked Shopkeeper Gan He and drank the wine. This time, the wine was even more extraordinary than the previous one. If they drank a few more cups, they might not be able to suppress their cultivation and break through.
Just one cup was enough to make people feel refreshed. Their spirits were instantly lifted and it was as if their souls had been purified. This feeling was too wonderful. It was as if they suddenly had more strength to fight and strive for the position of nominal disciple.
"Good wine, it's really good wine."
Even Fatty Cai couldn't help but praise him. With Fatty Cai's family's financial resources, he should have drunk a lot of good wine. For him to praise the wine, it was enough to show how good it was.
After finishing the wine, Qin Xiao said to Shopkeeper Gan He, "Shopkeeper Gan He, we will go in first."
"Hahaha, good, good." Shopkeeper Gan He immediately made an inviting gesture. Qin Xiao and the others entered the square.
The smile on Shopkeeper Gan He's face grew wider and wider. Many people in the surroundings looked at Shopkeeper Gan He with incomparable envy.
Many immortal shops had tried their best to invite Qin Xiao, but this good thing only fell on Shopkeeper Gan He. This was something that Shopkeeper Gan He was very happy about.
In the square, there were already more than a hundred thousand candidates gathered. Some people Qin Xiao was familiar with were also here. Nangong Ling, Zhang Yang, Dao Hefeng and the others were already here.
Qin Xiao's arrival had obviously attracted a large number of gazes, and all of them were focused on him.
Qin Xiao and Nangong Ling were like a pair of suns and moons, competing to bloom with supreme brilliance. They were the two most dazzling existences. Because of the two of them, everyone else's light had become dim and dull.
The two of them were like peerless heaven's prides. They were peerless monstrous geniuses who could suppress an era. Other geniuses like Zhang Yang and Dao Hefeng were not considered geniuses in front of the two of them.
More than a hundred thousand candidates quickly gathered in the square.
The promised time of a thousand years was quickly approaching.
Everyone was waiting for the selection to begin. Their final fate would be decided.
Although most of the people present would not be able to pass the selection and would face the fate of being eliminated. But no matter how small the hope was, people were always full of longing and expectation for the future. They always thought that luck might fall on them.
They always thought that if they gave it a try, they might be able to see the light.
Everyone in the square was full of fighting spirit and passion.
Around the square, there was a flurry of discussion. It was incomparably lively and noisy. Everyone was discussing who could pass the selection and become an in-name disciple of Fu Da Immortal Palace.
Three immortal lights suddenly descended from the sky. Like the rising sun, they illuminated the whole square.
Under the holy grace of the immortal lights, everyone involuntarily knelt down to worship. This was a devotion that came from the depths of their hearts.
The supreme immortal aura was like the majesty of the heavens. It was a sacred power in the level of life.
"There's no need for such formalities!"
A voice like an immortal flood rang out in the depths of everyone's minds. This power made everyone involuntarily stand up.
However, many people still lowered their heads, not daring to look at it.
Qin Xiao's gaze fell on the three immortal auras. The immortal aura enveloped the square. Qin Xiao recognized one of the three immortals. The one standing on the left was Immortal Yun Ku, who had received him.
The one in the middle was an old man with an immortal aura. He had long white hair and a long beard. His long robe fluttered in the wind. He was pure and holy.
His slender face had a sense of superiority and majesty.
The immortal aura was vast and mighty. Standing there, he released endless immortal aura as if he was the sky.
This immortal aura was too strong. It was so strong that it was suffocating.
On the right stood another immortal. He had a fat head and big ears. His round face had a natural smile, giving people a feeling that he was quite amiable.
Compared to the immortal aura of the old man in the middle, the two immortals' immortal auras were like stars compared to the sun and moon. The difference was too big and too obvious. They were not on the same level at all.
Could it be that the immortal in the middle was an Ancient Sage?
But that was impossible. How could an existence like an Ancient Sage appear so easily?
If he was not an Ancient Sage, could he be a half-step Ancient Sage?
The thought of it made people involuntarily gasp. Half-step Ancient Sages! There were only a few half-step Ancient Sages in the Futu Immortal Palace. Which one of them was not high and mighty?
Who would have thought that a half-step Ancient Sage would come to the selection of in-name disciples this time? It was really unbelievable.
Everyone held their breaths, and the huge square was completely silent.
Many people still lowered their heads, not daring to look at the three supreme existences, immortals who stood in the clouds.
The immortal aura, the image of dragons and phoenixes, the sound of songs rising from the four seas, and the multicolored light, it was like a dream.
They could even vaguely hear the sound of immortal music and the sound of a grand song.
"Fatty Cai, could it be that the palace master of the Futu Immortal Palace is here in person?" Xiao Dao asked in a voice as soft as a mosquito.
Fatty Cai immediately shook his head and said, "How is that possible? How could the palace master of the Futu Immortal Palace be here in person? The one on the left is Immortal Yun Ku, the one on the right is Immortal Chi Ling, and the one in the middle is a half-step Ancient Sage. The name of a half-step Ancient Sage is not commonly known to outsiders, so I don't know which half-step Ancient Sage it is.
In short, it is a supreme existence. "
"Once a half-step Ancient Sage appears, immortal light will shine for thousands of miles. Let's not talk. Even a trace of our thoughts can't escape the half-step Ancient Sage's notice. "
"If we have the slightest bit of bad thoughts, we might anger the half-step Ancient Sage. If we provoke them, we'll definitely die. "
The strength of a half-step Ancient Sage was indeed incredible.
A single thought was enough to kill them.
Even Qin Xiao felt his heart trembling. This was a trembling from the soul, a fear that had seeped into his bones.
Qin Xiao had felt this before, when he met the ancient sage of the Blood Temple Sect, You Luosha.
Pale and powerless, he felt as weak as an ant. With a single thought, the other party could easily crush him to death.
Facing this half-step Ancient Sage now, he felt more or less the same. The previous You Luosha was a true ancient sage, and the one in front of him was a half-step Ancient Sage.
But to be called a half-step Ancient Sage, one's strength was actually infinitely close to that of an ancient sage, so there was naturally some holy aura.
A trace of holy aura was enough to make Qin Xiao unable to resist.
The half-step Ancient Sage's voice suddenly sounded. What surprised Qin Xiao was that the voice was very soft, without a trace of majesty.
"Little guys, the selection is about to begin. What awaits you will be danger, cruelty, and even sacrifice. Our Fu Da Immortal Palace needs true geniuses. Even if you are just a registered disciple, you need to be a first-class genius, a real talent, with talent and potential.
Little guys. "
"Whether you can become a registered disciple of Fu Da Immortal Palace in the end depends on your own efforts."
The voice was not majestic, but the words made everyone's heart sink.
That's right, competition was cruel, bloody, and there were sacrifices to be made.
And this sacrifice was not a small one, but a great one.
Most likely, more than half of the people here would die in the selection. How cruel was this?
But only such extreme cruelty could select the geniuses of True Heaven, the geniuses that Fu Da Immortal Palace needed.
This was something that everyone already knew about.
"Qin Xiao, Nangong Ling!"
The half-step Ancient Sage's gaze suddenly fell on Qin Xiao and Nangong Ling. He continued, "The two of you do not need to participate in the selection. You pass directly. With your talent, potential, and strength, the selection is meaningless to you. So, I will not waste your time.
It is time. "
"The two of you can enjoy this special exception."
