Although I thought so, I didn't say it out loud.
After all, the dark green energy was very strange and seemed to have a natural restraining effect on Dao Qi. Before I figured it out, I definitely couldn't say it out loud.
At this moment, Dan Feng seemed to see Lu Zhenyang and frowned slightly. Then, he smiled and said, "This year's Young Phoenix Gathering has been full of twists and turns. It's finally over. According to the rules, the winner of this year's Young Phoenix Gathering is the Guangdong branch, Zhou Yi!"
I couldn't help but raise the corner of my mouth into a strange smile. Not long ago, after Lu Zhenyang had been defeated by me, he had used the Young Phoenix Gathering title to cover up his embarrassment, but now …
I didn't know what Lu Zhenyang was feeling right now.
I turned to look at Lu Zhenyang. His face turned green and white as he slumped on the chair. After sitting there in a daze for a long time, he suddenly sat up straight and said loudly, "Zhou Yi's Dragon Qi baptism only lasted for eight hours. It's impossible for him to have four meridians. Absolutely impossible!
There must be something wrong with the acupoint probing stone. President Yang, President Dan, quickly change to another one and test it again. There must be a mistake! "
His eyes lit up and he unconsciously pressed his broken arm against the armrest of the chair. He shouted excitedly, as if he was grasping at the last straw.
Dan Feng and Yang Shilong looked at each other and sighed. Then, Dan Feng said, "Lu Zhenyang, you're injured. It's better for you to go back and rest. As for the acupoint probing stone, there has never been a problem. Although the Dragon Qi baptism is related to opening the meridians, it's not absolute."
"Impossible!"
Lu Zhenyang suddenly dragged his seriously injured body and sat up from the chair. His face was ferocious as he said fiercely, "There must be a mistake!
I used a total of fourteen to sixteen hours for the Dragon Qi baptism!
The previous Ye Pianpian used more than twenty hours!
Why did Zhou Yi only use eight to ten hours to surpass us?
You're covering for him!
If you don't change to another acupoint probing stone, I'll definitely report you to President Gu!
I'll also tell my grandfather and ask him to uphold justice for me! "
At this moment, Lu Zhenyang no longer had his elegant demeanor from before. He had completely turned into a mad dog that went around biting people.
Under his constant struggle, the bandage around his severed arm was completely torn off. The wound that had just stopped bleeding once again gushed out a large amount of blood.
"This …" Yang Shilong and Dan Feng were hesitant. Although they were the vice presidents of the Metaphysics Union, they were still afraid of facing a crazy Lu family's son.
At the same time, the other members of the Beijing branch also shouted at the rostrum, saying that the Metaphysics Society was covering up for them. The Dragon Aura Baptism had only been going on for eight to ten hours, so it was impossible for him to open up four meridians.
Under their instigation, Yang Shilong and Dan Feng's expressions became uglier and uglier.
I frowned and thought for a while, then took the initiative to say to Yang Shilong and the others, "Chairman Yang, Chairman Dan, since they have doubts, let's test it again."
I obviously didn't want to help them out, but when I thought about the dark green power that could open up meridians, I couldn't help but want to know how many meridians the dark green power could open up.
The Probing Stone was a very precious thing. It was also an excellent material for making magic tools. Only the rich and powerful of the Metaphysics Association would have a few of them. After missing this opportunity, it was basically impossible to figure out this problem again.
Seeing that I had taken the initiative to help them out, Yang Shilong and Dan Feng heaved a sigh of relief. They immediately ordered a black-robed middle-aged man to bring a new Hole Searching Stone over.
Lu Zhenyang finally stopped, but he was still chuckling as he stared at me coldly like a wild beast that was about to devour me.
I smiled at him before turning my head to the side.
After being defeated by me, he had already become a joke. After I opened up my four meridians, he wasn't even a joke anymore. He was more like a clown.
At this moment, a new Hole Searching Stone was brought over. Under the instigation of the members of the Beijing branch, I placed my hand on the Hole Searching Stone again, but this time it was my right hand.
As I placed my hand on the Hole Searching Stone, I suppressed the undulations of the Dao Qi in my body and took the initiative to activate the dark green power.
After reaching the acupoint realm, the Qi of the Way had become a denser liquid, but this dark green energy did not change much. It was still in the form of extremely thin threads. It looked like gas, liquid, and even solid. It was hard to tell what form it was.
After the dark green power was activated, I didn't need to suppress the undulations of the Dao Qi anymore and it instantly disappeared.
It was strange that after reaching the Pressure Point Realm, the two powers seemed to have separated and didn't have the feeling of being in perfect harmony.
As the dark green power started to move, the Demon Immortal appeared on the Hole Searching Stone again. This time, the speed at which the ink lines appeared was terrifying!
In almost an instant, the first ink line and the ten nodes all appeared. In the next second, the second ink line and the ten nodes appeared. In the third second, the third … In the fourth second, the fourth ink line and the ten nodes all appeared!
Everyone was dumbfounded, including me.
The meridians opened by the dark green power were even more powerful than the Dao Qi. There were four ink lines and forty nodes, which meant that all the acupoints on the four meridians had been opened!
This … With the two powers added together, did I have all eight meridians opened?
How was that possible?
Dan Feng had said before that four meridians was the pinnacle. Even Zhang Daoling, the founder of the Zhengyi Sect, only had four meridians. How could I have eight meridians?
After thinking about it, I could only attribute these four meridians to the variables brought about by the dark green power.
After my attempts, the Dao Qi and the dark green power could only circulate in their respective four meridians and couldn't communicate in all eight meridians at the same time.
Only four meridians were opened in one minor circulation, which meant that I was still a four-meridian talent, but with two different powers.
The others had different thoughts. When they saw the four complete meridians, almost everyone asked in unison, "Aren't there three meridians and five acupoints?
Why are there five more acupoints? "
Even Yang Shilong and Dan Feng, who were on the rostrum, gaped. They didn't know what to say.
It was hard for me to answer this question. After thinking for a long time, I scratched my head in embarrassment and said, "Perhaps what Daoist Lu Zhenyang from the Beijing branch was right. The acupoint probing stone was broken. I clearly had four meridians open, but it tested me to have three meridians and five acupoints …"
I turned to look at Lu Zhenyang and held back my laughter. "Thank you. If it wasn't for you, everyone might never know my true talent."
Lu Zhenyang stood there in a daze. His face alternated between green and red. Finally, his entire face turned black and his cheeks slowly bulged. In front of everyone, he spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, he closed his eyes and fainted on the chair.
This gave me a fright. This fellow actually fainted from anger …
Looking at his current appearance, it was extremely tragic. However, I didn't feel any sympathy for him. It wasn't that I was cruel, but that he didn't deserve it.
Previously, he crippled Zhang Wenfei in the ranking competition and incited the Yunnan branch to take our spots. Today, he even used the Young Phoenix Gathering's rules to kill me. He had done so many evil deeds. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to take his life!
Moreover, he was the one who insisted on retesting his talent. He only had himself to blame for spitting blood and fainting.
The geomancers from the other branches also had strange expressions. Some of them couldn't help but lower their heads and laugh.
Only Yang Shilong and Dan Feng looked embarrassed. They quickly arranged for the Metaphysics Association's people to carry Lu Zhenyang away. Then, they hurriedly announced the results of the Young Phoenix Gathering.
Since it was already very late, after the announcement, he urged everyone to go back and rest.
When I was about to leave with the Guangdong branch's people, Dan Feng ran over and told me to go back and prepare a speech. He was going to give a speech at the celebration tomorrow.
After obtaining the Young Phoenix title, I definitely couldn't avoid the celebration and speech. I didn't care about it, but when I saw Dan Feng's expression, I couldn't help but feel disgusted.
Come to think of it, he was also a person of status and age. Previously, when he had abandoned me, he didn't even look me in the eye. Now, after seeing my talent, he actually disregarded his esteemed status as the Vice Guild Leader and tried to curry favor with me. It was really unappetizing.
Comparatively speaking, Yang Shilong's performance was much better than his. He stood in the distance and gave me an awkward smile. Then, he turned around and left.
After returning to my room, I went straight to bed. I didn't even wash up and prepared to rest.
After breaking through to the next realm, the dense dao energy in my body had already healed my injuries. However, I couldn't completely recover from my exhaustion.
During the day, I had experienced the fierce battle with Lu Zhenyang. First, I was on the brink of death. Then, I experienced the ecstasy of opening my meridians. My mental state had fluctuated greatly, and I was extremely exhausted.
This kind of exhaustion couldn't be completely recovered by relying on dao energy. I could only rely on deep sleep.
At this moment, the other members of the Guangdong branch, including Yang Wenfei, were extremely excited. They gathered in my room and didn't want to leave. All of them kept repeating the scene of me displaying my four meridians. They were so excited that it was as if they were the ones who had displayed their peerless talents.
I knew that they were truly happy for me, but I couldn't interrupt their excitement. I could only accompany them and chat for half the night. After everyone's excitement had dissipated, I advised them to go back and rest.
After everyone had left, I couldn't resist the exhaustion in my body and fell asleep. I slept until noon the next day.
When I opened my eyes, the sunlight outside the window was already shining through the glass. On the chair beside my bed, there was a white silhouette enveloped in sunlight.
At first, I was in a daze, thinking that it was Zhang Wenfei who had woken up so early. However, when I opened my eyes, I saw that the person sitting on the chair was Ye Pianpian!
