divine talisman

Douxuan Immortal City, Wuhun District.

In the Wuhun Hall where Nanliang Xianzhou is located.

In the empty hall, a skinny old man was lazily curled up in a chair, his eyes were bleary, and he seemed to be sleeping but not sleeping. It was Tie Qiuyu who had awarded Chen Xi a spirit order.

And beside Tie Qiuyu, sat a blue-clothed young man with tough facial features and a stern temperament. Between a pair of staring eyes, there was a bit of a cold breath, and he was ranked fourth on the Nanliang Qingyun list. Liang Ren!

At this time, Liang Ren looked outside the main hall, and then at Tie Qiuyu who seemed to be asleep on one side. He couldn't help but frowned, and finally couldn't hold back and said: "There are only seven days left before the enrollment of Daohuang Academy. Why hasn't Xi come?"

Tie Qiuyu's eyelids moved but did not open, and said vaguely: "Wait a little longer, as long as there are no accidents, I will definitely come."

Liang Ren frowned and thought for a while, but finally didn't say much.

As early as a year ago, he set off and came to Douxuan Immortal City, so he didn't have much contact with Chen Xi. He only met Chen Xi from a distance in the Martial Emperor's Domain.

But Liang Ren, as a descendant of the Liang family, naturally knew very well that Chen Xi had a great relationship with their Liang family. These days, many high-level officials in the clan sent memorandum slips asking him to take good care of Chen Xi, and he must not be neglected.

Even the patriarch Liang Tianheng gave a death order, even if Chen Xi wants to make an enemy of the whole world, let him Liang Ren stand by Chen Xi's side!

This made Liang Ren surprised, but he didn't dare to be negligent, so apart from cultivating, he just stayed in this Spirit Hall, staying at home, just to wait for Chen Xi to arrive.

Even putting aside the exhortations and instructions from the elders in the clan, he would still take good care of Chen Xi. The other party was promoted to No.5 in the Nanliang Qingyun list in one fell swoop with the appearance of a perfect fairy, and even his cousin Liang Bing was no match for him. .

Such an amazing person was enough for Liang Ren to treat him solemnly.

But he had been waiting for more than a month, but Chen Xi did not appear. Apart from being impatient in his heart, he couldn't help feeling worried, worried that something unexpected happened to Chen Xi on the road.

A sound of footsteps suddenly sounded outside the Hall of Spirits, awakening Liang Ren who was in deep thought. Suddenly he raised his head, and saw a tall figure approaching outside the hall.

Chen Xi!

This guy is finally here!

Liang Ren was refreshed, and before he got up, he felt a blur in front of his eyes. Tie Qiuyu, who had been sleepy beside him, stood up suddenly, and then rushed out of the hall with a bang.

Liang Ren was taken aback for a moment. It turned out that this money-grubbing old guy had been pretending to be asleep, and when he saw Chen Xi, he was even more excited than himself...

Although he felt a little contemptuous of Tie Qiuyu's behavior, Liang Ren got up quickly and greeted him.

"Haha, you little guy is finally here, I made the old man wait so hard!"

Tie Qiuyu looked enthusiastic, and looked up and down Chen Xi with a pair of eyes, not concealing her relief and joy.

Chen Xi smiled, cupped his hands and said, "I was delayed on the road for a while, and made senior wait for a long time."

"Chen Xi, you are finally here."

Liang Ren also greeted him.

"Brother Liang Ren."

Chen Xi cupped his hands again. The other party was Liang Bing's cousin. Although he didn't have any friendship with him, he was quite grateful for being able to take the initiative to greet him now.

"Early stage of Profound Immortal? You are amazing, little fellow, has it been less than a year? You actually advanced from the early stage of Celestial Immortal to the Realm of Profound Immortal?"

Just as Tie Qiuyu was about to say something, she stared suddenly and said in surprise.

Hearing this, Liang Ren's heart was also shocked. He sized up Chen Xi in astonishment, and as expected, he found that the other party's aura was mysterious and subtle, hidden but not revealed, which was the characteristic of the Profound Immortal Realm!

Chen Xi rubbed his nose and said with a smile: "Senior, brother Liang Ren, if you have anything to say, should we go to the main hall first?"

Tie Qiuyu quickly came to his senses, and laughed loudly: "Yes, you little guy is really unexpected, hmph, back then that old bastard Wang Daolu had no eyes, he deserved it..."

At the end, he seemed to sense something was wrong, and immediately shut up.

"Wang Daolu?" Chen Xi was stunned.

"Let's go, don't mention him, it's just an old thing that caused this old man to lose 10 yuan of immortal stones." Tie Qiuyu murmured and brought Chen Xi into the hall.

……

……

In the main hall, Chen Xi, Liang Ren, and Tie Qiuyu were seated.

Liang Ren smiled and said, "Now that you're here, all the disciples from Nanliang Xianzhou who are qualified to participate in Daohuang Academy are finally here."

Chen Xi also knew that, apart from him and Liang Ren, Yin Miaomiao, Gu Yueming, and Jiang Zhuliu, who ranked top three on the Nanliang Qingyun Ranking, were also among the top [-] on the Qingyun General Ranking.

In other words, they will definitely participate in this Daohuang Academy assessment.

While talking, there was another sound of footsteps outside the hall.

Chen Xi raised his eyes and couldn't help squinting his eyes. They were a man and a woman. The man was thin and dressed in black, and his appearance was ordinary, but his face was extremely white, almost transparent.

His lips were as thin as a knife's edge, and he pursed them lightly, exuding a stern look, and the aura around him was obscure and calm, but exuded an oppressive aura, as if there was a volcano in his body, seemingly calm, but It could explode at any time.

However, Chen Xi's gaze just swept across the black-clothed man before falling on the woman next to him.

She has a head of hair like a waterfall, a slim and slender figure, a complexion as white as suet, and is wearing a black gauze. Her whole demeanor is lonely and cold, like a black peony standing proudly on the cliff.

It was Yin Miaomiao who ranked third on the Nanliang Qingyun list!

When he saw Yin Miaomiao's gaze, the temperature in Chen Xi's slightly squinted eyes instantly turned cold, as cold as ice and snow without any emotion.

At the same time, Yin Miaomiao also saw Chen Xi in the main hall, and was slightly taken aback. There was also a trace of undisguised hatred and murderous intent in those pair of star pupils.

The eyes meet, and the thunder is heard in the silence!

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a little dull.

Liang Ren pursed his lips and remained silent. He was well aware of the grievances between Chen Xi and Yin Miaomiao, so he was not surprised to see such a scene.

Tie Qiuyu has been stationed in the City of the Four Saints all year round, and now he is the guide of the Spirit Hall, so he is naturally aware of all this, and immediately said with a smile: "I am explaining some matters about the test to Chen Xi, do you want to listen?"

Yin Miaomiao glanced at Chen Xi coldly again, then withdrew her gaze, shook her head and said, "No need."

With that said, she turned around and walked towards the depths of the hall.

There are quite a few quiet rooms in the Wuhun Hall, which are prepared for the children who participate in the Daohuang Academy's test.

As soon as Yin Miaomiao left, the atmosphere in the hall became much more relaxed.

But the next moment, the relaxed atmosphere was broken by a voice, "In the past, you were not worthy to challenge Miss Miaomiao, and now, you are also not worthy."

The young man in black walked into the main hall, stomped slightly beside Chen Xi, did not look at Chen Xi, just stared at Yin Miaomiao's disappearing back in the distance, and said calmly: "And with all due respect, based on your present ranking, I'm afraid they will be eliminated in the first round of tests."

The voice was deep, hoarse, and calm, with a strong flavor, as if casually expounding an iron-like fact. There was no sarcasm or disdain, but it was the greatest denial and disregard.

After that, he left directly.

From the beginning to the end, he didn't even look at Chen Xi. Similarly, Liang Ren and Tie Qiuyu didn't arouse any interest in him, and they were also ignored.

It seemed that in his eyes, besides himself, it was Yin Miaomiao.

Liang Ren's face was a little gloomy, and he snorted coldly: "A bottle of Shenwen Baowang Pill was bought by Yin Miaomiao, what is it!"

Tie Qiuyu's expression was as usual, she glanced at Chen Xi with a smile, and said, "That little guy is Jiang Zhuliu, you don't seem to recognize him?"

Chen Xi nodded: "I don't know, but I don't want to know each other in the future."

Being repeatedly denied by Jiang Zhu, Chen Xi was not angry, but rather disappointed.He had often heard people say that this Jiang Zhuliu was an amazing person who came from a humble background and had no family or sect, yet he was able to rank No. 1 on the Nanliang Qingyun List for decades without anyone being able to shake him. This is a miracle.

Chen Xi admired this person quite a bit before, but when he saw him now, especially when the other party commented on him unceremoniously, he was naturally a little disappointed.

"Don't pay attention to him. A guy from a poor background thinks that if he can climb the high branch of the Yin family, he will be able to glorify his ancestors and make a prosperous life. I have seen such an ugly face a lot."

Liang Ren disdained to speak, and comforted Chen Xi.

Chen Xi frowned: "With a character like him, the Yin family seems to have to pay a considerable price to recruit him, right?"

Liang Ren let out a snort of laughter, becoming more disdainful, and said, "That's for sure. I heard that as long as he advances to Daluo Jinxian, Yin Miaomiao will become a Taoist companion with him."

Chen Xi nodded, so that's the case, no wonder he was targeting him so much.

Immediately, he remembered what Jiang Zhuliu had said before, and asked, "What is the first round of the test at the Imperial Academy?"

This time it was Tie Qiuyu who answered. He thought for a while and said: "The test of Daohuang Academy is divided into three rounds. The first round is the easiest. The test is the ranking on the Qingyun General Ranking. Anything else will be eliminated.”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Chen Xi, and said: "You are currently ranked 99th on the Qingyun General Ranking, but you are the easiest to be eliminated. After all, there are still people who participated in the Dao Emperor Academy's test this time. There are top figures from the Buddhist world, the dragon world, the Phoenix clan, and so on."

It seemed that Tie Qiuyu's explanation was not clear, Liang Ren interrupted and said: "Those forces from outside the fairy world did not participate in the ranking of the Qingyun General Ranking before, but during the first round of tests at Daohuang Academy, Let them accept the test of the Floating Light Immortal Wall with us. In this way, some of the existences that are currently ranked in the top [-] of the Qingyun rankings will inevitably be squeezed out."

After hearing all of this, Chen Xi soon understood, and couldn't help laughing: "Isn't this just grabbing the places that belong to our fairy world?"
