The Outer Palace of Ling Xuanwu Province was built against the mountain. There were no tall buildings inside, but rather an endless stretch of exquisite pavilions. The design of these pavilions was ingenious, and the lines were smooth. They blended perfectly with the surrounding scenery, making people gasp in admiration.
Long Bufan and his group walked for about ten minutes before a jade-green lake appeared in front of them. The lake was as green as jade, and its calm surface did not have a single ripple. It was like a mirror. The lake was surrounded by weeping willows. Autumn had just arrived, and many weeping willows had shed their leaves. However, what was strange was that not a single leaf floated into the lake.
Long Bufan discovered that there was a pavilion in the middle of the lake. There was a stone table in the middle of the pavilion, and there was tea and dried fruit on the table. At this time, there were two old men, a few middle-aged men, and a young girl sitting around the stone table. They were looking over with interest.
Long Bufan was slightly startled. Why was she here?
The young girl in the pavilion had a graceful figure. She was dressed in white, and her beautiful face was set off by the old men beside her. She looked even more elegant and refined.
Among these people, a few of the middle-aged men were guests of the imperial court. In addition, there were also the Outer Palace Elders of Ling Xuanwu Province. During the annual promotion trial, they would come to observe and see if there were any good seedlings.
They were mainly looking at combat potential. As for talent, they did not need to test to know. The talent of the odd-job workers was barely satisfactory, and the strongest was only an upper third-grade.
There was nothing to see in the first test, so these Outer Palace Elders were not present. This time, they were here to see if there was anyone with particularly strong combat strength among these candidates. As for the guests of the imperial court, they had the same idea. However, they were here to recruit talents for their masters.
"Shuang'er, you are an Inner Palace Direct Disciple. Why are you suddenly so interested in coming to the Outer Palace to join in the fun today?" an Outer Palace Elder with white hair and a youthful face asked the young girl beside him while stroking his goatee.
"Recently, the Inner Palace has been reorganizing the various affairs of the sect, so I came to understand the promotion trial of the Outer Palace," Lin Shuang'er said with a smile. Her fair face had a hint of youthfulness.
The Outer Palace Elder put down his teacup and praised, "The Inner Palace is fortunate to have such an intelligent female disciple like you. With your talent, I believe you will break through to the Origin Core Realm soon. "
"Elder He is too kind. Shuang'er is just doing her job." Shuang'er smiled.
...
These people were all experts!
From a distance of tens of meters, Long Bufan could vaguely feel their presence. Especially the two old men who sat on the stone bench drinking tea....
Long Bufan reached into the hidden pocket in his bosom and pinched the soft and smooth gauze inside. He looked at Lin Shuang'er in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. Seeing that she hadn't noticed him from beginning to end, he smiled helplessly. "Forget it. I'll return it to her after the examination. I'll keep it to wipe my sweat first."
"Odd-Job workers, follow me!"
A rough voice sounded from the crowd. This time, the examiner was a tall middle-aged man. This person had a resolute appearance. His head was smooth and hairless. His strong body naturally exuded an aura that made one's heart palpitate. Long Bufan could tell with a glance that this middle-aged man had already entered the Earth Origin Realm.
The bald man said and turned to leave. The crowd followed him across a stone bridge and arrived at a huge pavilion on the opposite side of the lake.
