Chapter 179 The Seventh Stone Tablet, the Whole Big Event (Day 22 )

"Om-"

A low humming sound was heard, and seven stone tablets of different sizes standing in a row began to light up one by one.

The smallest of the seven stone tablets was about three meters high. It was the first to light up, emitting a dazzling glow, followed by the second and third, until finally the seventh stone tablet, which was over five meters high.

The seven steles lit up at the same time, and the onlookers were in an uproar. Countless people looked at the figure standing in front of the steles and lighting them up with astonishment.

He was a thin boy, his eyes were a little dazed, as if he was wandering in the sky, he held a sheathed rapier in his arms with both hands, the aura around him was like a sword being unsheathed, or like a polished glass gem.

"One insight will light up the fifth stele, and two insights will light up the seventh stele." Tianxuan Monkey, who was not far away, crossed his arms and stared at the boy. "There are quite a few talented people in this re-screening."

As the lower-level zodiac signs left the scene one after another, more and more martial artists were stranded in the safe zone of the higher-level zodiac signs.

On the first day, there were only about a thousand martial arts students in the Tianxuan Monkey's safe zone. By this moment, there were already three thousand martial arts students stranded there.

As the number of martial arts students increased, there were naturally more geniuses among them. In just five days, more than a dozen martial arts students successfully lit up the seven stone tablets, and five of them succeeded within three insights.

"But I'm afraid it won't be so lively in the future." Tianxuan Monkey glanced around and saw that many martial arts students who were resting here had started to pack their luggage.

Twenty-four hours later, the zodiac animals at the Tianxuan level will also leave. At that time, this will no longer be a safe zone. In order to avoid a large-scale melee at that time, many martial arts students will choose to leave early.

“It’s troublesome when there are too many people, and it’s lonely when there are too few people. It’s really…” Tianxuan Monkey sighed lightly, and a figure unconsciously thought of in his mind.

The guy named Chu Mu successfully lit up the fifth stone tablet in two attempts. He could have become the sixth martial arts student to light up seven stone tablets within three attempts, but he interrupted his perception and chose to leave temporarily.

Now there are only twenty-four hours left before his departure.

I don’t know if that guy still remembers this and whether he will come back.

After passing this village, there is no such shop.

This opportunity to comprehend "Eighteen Manifolds" for two hours with only 30 tokens will be gone after the re-screening is over.

In particular, when he was chatting with other zodiac signs, he also learned some things that happened to Chu Mu.

If the situation is true, it is unknown whether the little brother named Chu Mu will be able to access "Eighteen Manifolds" in the future.

Thinking of this, Tianxuan Monkey couldn't help but sigh, and suddenly he seemed to realize something and looked towards the horizon.

A flash of gold quickly enlarged in the sight.

On the other side, Lepani, who had lit up seven stone tablets, held a rapier, turned to the crowd expressionlessly, and stood in front of another young man.

"Awesome." The boy gave Lepani a thumbs up. "So far, you are the first one to light up the seventh stone tablet in two attempts."

"I wish my comprehension could be this high." The young man couldn't help but sigh.

The boy in front of him was ranked 3rd in the league in the total score of the initial screening and 1st in the Guangming Star, but he was ranked 50000th in the league and 1st from the bottom in the Guangming Star.

The gap in martial arts talent between the two is like stars and dust.

Lepani had no reaction to the boy's sigh. He just walked to his side calmly and asked, "Where are we going next?"

The smile on the boy's face faded slightly, "Go find the Tianshu snake."

Lepani glanced sideways, "Xu Yuncan, that's not enough."

"I know that just the two of us are not enough, so we don't set out now." Xu Yuncan said softly, "Wait a little longer."

"Don't worry." He looked at Lepani and smiled, "According to our agreement, if I can't do it, all the tokens will be yours."

Lepani held the rapier in his hand and said no more.

There were cries of surprise coming from all around, and a golden light descended from the sky and landed not far in front of everyone.

Looking at the four figures walking down from the golden leaves, Xu Yuncan smiled and said, "The one I'm waiting for is here."
-
"Senior Tianxuan Monkey, long time no see." Chu Mu walked to Tianxuan Monkey with a smile, cupped his hands, and took out 30 tokens, "I'm here to comprehend the Eighteen Manifolds."

"And I."

"Take me one."

Song Yan and the other two immediately took out the token.

"Let's go." Tianxuan Monkey looked at Chu Mu deeply, turned and walked towards the dojo, and led the four people to the empty cushions everywhere.

When he was about to leave, he looked at Chu Mu and suddenly spoke.

"Lighting up the seven stone tablets is only the beginning of the "Eighteen Manifolds". This technique is extremely advanced and cannot be exchanged for secret weapon points."

"I've heard about your situation these past few days." He said meaningfully, "In the last two days, try to earn as many tokens as possible."

The Beidou Training Camp is a special training camp created by the Beidou Seven Martial Arts University to cultivate the most outstanding high school martial arts students by gathering certain resources.

The martial arts students who were able to enter were also extremely outstanding in the eyes of the Seven Martial Arts Schools of the North Star. Many of them had already been recruited by the Seven Martial Arts Schools of the North Star when they entered the North Star training camp.

However, there are also some students in the Beidou Training Camp who no longer gain the favor of the Beidou Seven Martial Arts College for various reasons. The proportion of students in the Beidou Training Camp who enter the Beidou Seven Martial Arts College is not 100%.

Chu Mu, in Tianxuan Monkey's opinion, this is the situation.

With his performance, it is almost certain that he will enter the Beidou training camp, but whether he can enter the Beidou Seven Martial Arts Academy is still a question mark.

After all, he sensed the power of the star beasts and personally put a shackle on martial arts.

"Thank you for the reminder, senior." Chu Mu's eyes flashed slightly, and he spoke in a low voice, then his gaze fell on the huge stone tablet in front of him.

After a few days without any insights, the complex and criss-crossing traces on the stone tablet seemed to become more familiar in Chu Mu's eyes. In just a breath, he quickly entered the state of perception, and all kinds of meanings emerged around him.

Two hours later, Chu Mu and three others walked out at the same time.

Tu Shanming successfully lit up the second stone tablet, while Song Yan and Lin Changfeng successfully lit up the third stone tablet. The three of them chose to continue to the next comprehension without hesitation.

Next, it was Chu Mu's turn.

Chu Mu stood in front of the seven stone tablets with his hands behind his back. The meaning of "Eighteen Manifolds" flowed quietly. The stone tablets lit up one after another in a very short time, and soon a brilliant glow appeared on the seventh stone tablet.

"Congratulations, you've become the sixth person to light up seven stone tablets within three insights." Tianxuan Monkey handed 60 tokens to Chu Mu and spoke with a smile.

"The sixth one?" Chu Mu thought. It seemed that during the three or four days when he was away, many powerful figures came to Tianxuan Monkey.

However, this is normal.

"According to the rules of the challenge, I should have another chance to gain enlightenment, right?" Chu Mu looked at the Tianxuan Monkey.

Although he had already comprehended the seven stone tablets, he clearly felt that he had not fully understood the stone tablets in the Taoist temple.

The challenge rule of Tianxuan Monkey is that each time you gain insight, you must light up at least one new stone tablet before you can proceed to the next insight. However, it does not say that you cannot continue to gain insight after all the stone tablets are lit up.

Therefore, he should be able to gain enlightenment again.

Tianxuan Monkey was stunned for a moment, and his expression under the hood became strange.

As expected, he is a guy who dares to sell insights to earn tokens. He even discovered such small loopholes in the rules.

None of the martial arts students who had previously comprehended the seven stone tablets mentioned this point.

"Okay." Tianxuan Monkey nodded slightly, and then changed the subject, "But you may have to continue later."

After saying that, he pointed in a certain direction.

Chu Mu turned his head and saw two figures walking towards him.

The man walking in front had a handsome face and bright eyes. There was no fluctuation of source power around him, and it seemed that he was only at the Nayuan realm.

The one following behind the former had unfocused eyes as if he was in a trance, holding a gorgeously shaped Western sword in his hand. He did not make any noise, but gave Chu Mu a feeling of extreme danger.

This duo of unknown origins and somewhat special people made Chu Mu quickly show a cautious expression.

"My name is Xu Yuncan." The leading teenager stood two meters in front of Chu Mu and pointed behind him, "This is my companion Lepani. You may have heard of him. He was ranked third in the entire league during the initial screening."

3rd in the league?
Chu Mu couldn't help but look at Lepani again.

I have the impression that there is such a name.

It’s the boy in front of me.

No wonder Chu Mu felt extremely dangerous just by standing there.

Chu Mu had no doubt that even Song Yan and the other two plus him might not be the opponent's match.

However, such a powerful guy is not the dominant one in this duo.

Chu Mu couldn't help but look at the young man named Xu Yuncan again.

"What's the matter with you looking for me?"

"Let's discuss cooperation." Xu Yuncan smiled and glanced at the Tianxuan Monkey standing not far away. "This matter is very important. We'd better find a place where there is no one to discuss it."

Chu Mu looked at the two people in front of him in silence, and nodded slightly after a moment, "Okay."

He wanted to see what kind of cooperation these two guys could discuss with him.

The three of them quickly moved away from the Zodiac challenge point and stopped in a shady area near the border of the safe zone.

"Okay, no one should be able to hear us now." Xu Yuncan glanced somewhere and then retracted his gaze. There was a hidden camera there, which was a re-screened surveillance camera.

Then, his eyes fell on Chu Mu, "I have heard a lot about the four of you these days."

"I heard that you had enlightenment twice in the safe zone of the Tianxuan Monkey, and left after lighting up five stone tablets. I knew you would come back."

"After all, a person who can earn more than 500 tokens by selling his experience should be very clear about the importance of the Eighteen Manifolds and will not give it up easily."

"Sure enough, I guessed right."

Chu Mu's eyes gradually became serious as Xu Yuncan spoke.

He knew nothing about the person in front of him, but the guy in front of him seemed to know him and his companions very well and could even predict his whereabouts.

This made him feel vaguely threatened.

This is a very powerful guy.

Not in terms of strength, but in terms of intelligence.

Xu Yuncan did not keep the secret and continued, "These past few days, you have been very proactive in collecting tokens, even though the number of tokens has long exceeded the number required to break through the re-screening."

"There will be no rewards for the top 1000 in the semi-finals, but you still do this, which means..."

He looked into Chu Mu's eyes and spoke slowly, "You should also be aware that the Seven-Star Token can be exchanged for Seven-Star Points after the re-screening is completed."

"Go on." Chu Mu said calmly.

He was already certain that the guy in front of him might be smarter than himself, so he was not surprised at all that the other party could think of what he thought.

"Seven-star points cannot be obtained in the Beidou training camp." Xu Yuncan said softly, "The seven-star points obtained in the re-screening are hard currency in the six-month Beidou training camp."

"So, for you and me, the focus of the re-screening is not to successfully enter the top 1000, but to get as many tokens as possible."

“This is also what I want to cooperate with you.”

"It sounds like we have the same goal." Chu Mu nodded slightly, "But I'm curious about what exactly you want to cooperate with us on."

He glanced at Lepani and said, "I'm not being self-pitying. This guy might even be stronger than the four of us combined."

"I'm afraid it's not that simple if neither of you can do it, right?"

"It's indeed not simple." Xu Yuncan smiled. Even though there was no fourth person here, he couldn't help but lower his voice a few degrees.

"I want to make a big deal before the re-screening is over."

"Defeat and replace a zodiac sign."
