Chapter 173: Infighting
Walking to the edge of the martial arts test venue, Yan Yaoji rose into the air and shot directly at the Yan clan's viewing platform.
When Yan Lan saw this, he immediately flew to catch up. Although his speed was not as fast as Yan Yaoji, flying over a thousand feet distance was not a problem at all with his current level of cultivation.
When the three of them settled down, the voices of everyone talking could be heard in their ears.
"Well, that's Yan Lan, and now he has a strange beast and a thunder sword!"
"This kid, looking so lean, doesn't seem to be as powerful as you said. You kid can't lie to me!"
"Go away, do you know what it means to not look at people's faces?"
"This martial arts test ceremony, hey, it's really interesting, interesting, and really exciting!"
"..."
Yan Lan frowned. These voices were all said by people he didn't know, and he didn't take them to heart. Because what was really worth taking to heart were the people on the other side looking at him with hatred.
These people are silent, but their eyes can kill.
As the saying goes, dogs that bark don't bite. Dogs that don't bark often bite people the most, and they can even bite you off guard.
At this moment, Yan Yaoji bowed his hands to the second- and third-rate people on the other side, and said a few polite words, but he ignored the people from the Pang family and the Zhou clan next to him, and instead took out ten long and soft long ones from the storage ring.
With a wave of his hand, the benches were arranged neatly, and he sat down immediately.
"Lan'er, Tian'er, sit next to me!" Yan Yaoji greeted Yan Lan and Yan Lingtian.
Yan Lan nodded and sat down. The bench was a foot long, more than enough for three people.
"The location of our clan's viewing platform is truly 'excellent'." Yan Lan shook her head with a wry smile, and then lazily leaned on the back of the chair, relaxing her whole body.
Every twenty feet on this viewing platform, there is a straight aisle from the inside to the outside. This aisle also divides the various clans into their own areas.
In the center of the viewing platform, facing south, are occupied by the Shengfeng Sect and the Wuzong respectively.
The Sheng Feng Sect is the well-deserved number one force in the sky. The reason why the Wuzong can occupy the area below the Sheng Feng Sect is due to its former glory and the identity of its host.
On the right side of the Shengfeng Sect are the Zhou family and the Pang family, which occupy the upper and lower parts respectively; further to the right, they are divided into three areas, from top to bottom are the Sun family, the Situ family, and the Yan family; among them, the Sun family
The family occupies half of the area, and the Yan family and the Situ family each occupy the remaining half.
On the left side of the Holy Feng Sect, the Nangong family and the Ouyang family occupy the upper and lower parts; further to the left, there are also three areas, and the Ji family occupies the top.
The Sun family is also a first-class force in Tianlu, ranking in the middle of the first-class force. It is located in the northern part of Tianlu. The Ji family is located in the west of Tianlu and is also a first-class force in Tianlu.
The seven first-class forces in Tianlu occupied the seven central positions.
Further on both sides are the second-rate forces from Tianlu, dozens of them in total.
Although the Yan Clan is at the bottom of the second-rate forces, its ability to be ranked in such a middle position is due to the Yan Clan's ancient glory.
Although many rising forces cannot see the Yan Clan's viewing platform so close to the center, there is nothing they can do. The two tribes cannot fight over this seat.
Further to the two sides, there are the third-rate forces from Tianlu, as well as some unconventional forces, as well as many idle monks. This group of forces is the largest group of people watching the martial arts test ceremony today.
The reason why Yan Lan lamented that the location of the Yan Clan's viewing platform was 'excellent' was because behind him was the Situ family, next to the Pang family, and behind the Pang family was the Zhou family. These three families were the most bitter enemies of the Yan family, but they
Sitting closest to each other, it can be said that we are enemies on a narrow road.
Yan Lan noticed that the smell of gunpowder was getting stronger. He smiled faintly and ignored it. Instead, he looked around and saw that the wide viewing platform was densely packed with people. It was even comparable to the crowds in the Xishan Basin before.
The density is comparable.
However, Yan Lan knew at a glance that the people who were qualified to step onto the viewing platform all had a certain level of cultivation, and were not at all as mixed as the people in the Xishan Basin back then.
Yan Lan breathed a sigh of relief. The location he was in at this moment was not as crowded as other areas. Naturally, only people from the Yan Clan and guests of the Yan Clan could be located at the Yan Clan's viewing platform.
However, there are only three of them at the moment, and the rest of the family are still on their way here, so it seems a bit emptier.
"Lan'er, Tian'er, there have always been countless geniuses in the martial arts test ceremony. You just need to do your best. Don't compete for temporary victory or defeat, which will damage your foundation and delay your long-term practice." Yan Yaoji said earnestly.
"Yes!" Yan Lan and Yan Lingtian nodded at the same time.
Yan Yaoji stroked his beard and smiled, then lowered his voice and said, "Lan'er, remember what I said to you last night, no matter you win or lose, take care of yourself and leave the rest of the family alone."
Yan Lan frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded again.
He nodded, not as a promise to ignore the rest of the family, but to temporarily reassure Yan Yaoji.
"You should seize the time to adjust your breath first. There is still more than half an hour before the martial arts test ceremony starts. Let's adjust ourselves to the best condition first." Yan Yaoji said with a smile.
Yan Lan pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "Master Patriarch, don't worry, I'm already at my best. I see that none of us are nervous, but you are."
A faint smile appeared on Yan Lingtian's stern face, and he said: "Yan Lan, you don't know that the family that wins the martial arts test ceremony will be able to hold the mysterious item for three years. The clan leader once said that our clan once won
The leader who has passed the martial arts test ceremony has also delved into the mysterious item, but he still has not been able to unlock the mystery."
"For so many years, the top forces in Tianlu have not been able to get any information from it. The patriarch is naturally nervous about what you have. At the same time, he also hopes that you can get the leader and the mysterious item. Maybe you can unlock the mystery.
It’s not impossible.”
When Yan Yaoji heard this, his eyes lit up, he pinched the back of Yan Lingtian's neck lovingly, and scolded with a smile: "You brat, how dare you guess my thoughts!"
Yan Lan chuckled and said: "Master Patriarch, Brother Ling Tian has always been very talented and smart. It's not that you don't know it. It's just that I don't know what that mysterious item looks like. I'm getting curious."
Yan Yaoji put away his smile, sighed lightly, and said: "In fact, even I don't know what that item looks like. Because my family has been in the family for thousands of years, no one can win the first place in the martial arts test ceremony, and the other families regard it as a treasure.
, naturally unwilling to reveal any information. However, if you can get the leader, we will have a chance to take a look."
Having said that, Yan Yaoji raised an eyebrow at Yan Lan and smiled. He didn't know why, but he had great confidence in Yan Lan. Although he knew that there were many strong people in the martial arts test ceremony, and it was not as easy as he said to win the top spot.
Yan Lan noticed the piercing eyes of her enemies behind her and on the left. She gritted her teeth and said with clear eyes, "Don't worry, Mr. Patriarch, I will try my best."
Yan Yaoji looked at Yan Lan, who was extremely confident, and was about to tell him to do what he could, but when the words reached his throat, he swallowed them. Yan Lan had such morale, how could he attack him.
The three of Yan Lan chatted for a while, and then more than twenty figures landed on the Yan Clan's viewing platform.
"Ah, Xiaolan, the teleportation circle is really fast. I see you have been waiting for a long time, haha!" As soon as Yan Lingyu landed, she walked straight towards Yan Lan, then sat down unceremoniously beside Yan Lan and bent over.
He raised his eyebrows and asked, "How does it feel to ride on the teleportation circle?"
Yan Lan pursed her lips and smiled and said: "I don't feel anything, but when I become successful in the future, I will take you to ride on many teleportation arrays, how about it?"
Yan Lingyu raised the corners of her mouth, revealing two small dimples, stretched out her little thumb, and said with a smile: "Okay, keep your word!"
"Of course it counts, pull the hook as proof!" Yan Lan hooked Yan Lingyu's little finger and solemnly completed the hook-pull ceremony.
At this moment, a loud laughter came from the sky.
"Hahaha, I was late and kept you waiting for a long time."
Yan Lan looked up and saw that there were dozens of people coming, all of whom were sect masters of first-rate forces. Of course, they also carried family members participating in the battle with them.
These people were naturally invited by the host Wu Zong to greet them. As for the second- and third-rate forces, Wu Zong, who was the pinnacle of the second-rate forces, had not noticed it yet, so of course he would not invite them.
Chapter completed!
