Lu Li was angry. Why would he stand in the middle of the road?
It was a plain with roads everywhere. Why couldn't they take a detour?
Why would they bump into him and whip him?
The girl was pretty but short-tempered. Lu Li was disgusted by her spoiled manner.
In addition to her, the seven young ladies were also looking at him with disdain.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
~
”
A team of warriors rushed over. They dropped to one knee in front of the yellow-dressed lady and said, "Greetings, Lady Dan. Ladies!"
"Lady Dan?"
Lu Li showed no emotion. This Lady Dan must be a young lady from a big shot's family in the Chamber of Relics. Those young ladies must be from prestigious families in the Chamber of Relics.
The warriors saluted. Their leader looked at Lu Li and said, "Lady Dan, do you need us to drive him away?"
"Never mind!"
Seeing that Lu Li did not talk back, Lady Dan waved her hand and said, "Let's go. Let's go. What bad luck!"
Lady Dan dashed away with the female warriors. The warriors threw Lu Li a cold glance and then rushed toward the city gate.
Lu Li was frustrated. Those warriors must have remembered him. If he wanted to join the Chamber of Relics, it would be much more difficult. He might not even have the chance to pass the assessment.
"Sh * t. This is so frustrating!"
Lu Li clenched his fists. If he had a choice, he would turn around and leave. He would never join the Chamber of Relics.
He had no choice but to lower his head when he was under someone else's roof. He had nowhere else to go, so he could only walk to the back of the crowd and sit down quietly.
From the distance came people in twos and threes. Some were young and some were middle-aged. They all found a place to sit.
Two days later, the number of people outside the Valley of Relics had reached ten thousand.
Today, the gate of the Valley of Relics was opened. Out came 10 old men in black robes and teams of warriors in white robes. Some were young and some were middle-aged. They must be disciples of the Chamber of Relics. In total, there were over a hundred of them.
"Swish, swish, swish!
~
”
Tens of thousands of people stood up nervously. The Chamber of Relics was recruiting disciples once a year. There were tens of thousands of people here, but in the end, only dozens of people could join the Chamber of Relics, or even fewer. Everyone was naturally very nervous.
"Hello, everyone. I'm Elder Tian Haiqiang of the Artifact Pavilion. You can call me Elder Tian!"
A dignified old man pressed his hand down and suppressed the noise. He glanced around and said, "The annual disciple recruitment ceremony of the Chamber of Relics has begun.
I won't waste any more time. I just want to say that everything will be done according to the rules of our Artifact Pavilion. If anyone tries to cause trouble, don't blame us for dealing with them according to the rules. "
"As you all know, our Artifact Pavilion focuses on refining weapons. Therefore, the comprehension of formations and restrictions, as well as the talent in this area, are very important.
Next, there will be two tests. If you can pass these two tests, you will be able to enter the Valley of Artifacts for the last test. If you pass the test, you will become a registered disciple of the Hall of Artifacts and have the opportunity to learn how to forge weapons! "
After a long speech, Patriarch Tian waved his hand and said, "Now, the first test will begin. Later, we will build a formation of illusion to trap all of you in.
Only those who can walk out in two hours will pass the first test! "
"Formation of illusion?"
Lu Li was delighted. Since the Bloodvine was so good at breaking formations, this test would not be too difficult. He would be able to walk out in two hours.
"No, I must get out as soon as I can!"
Lu Li thought about it. Two days ago, he offended that Lady Dan, and some warriors bore grudges against him.
Lu Li must be capable enough to ensure that he could join the Chamber of Relics without fail.
"Blood Fairy, later, there will be a formation of illusion. You must crack it at once and help me out!"
Lu Li told Blood Fairy. He took out the Wicked Bead and held it in his hand.
Blood Fairy hurriedly extended her tentacles into his body. Finally, she quietly reached into the ground.
"Okay, activate the formation of illusion!"
Patriarch Tian waved his hand. The 10 white-robed disciples behind him came over and stood in a corner.
They took out many formation stones and some other strange items to set up.
"Rise!
~
”
A moment later, a disciple shouted. Lu Li and the others were enveloped by the white haze and disappeared.
"Rustle, rustle, rustle!
~
”
At the city gate came some footsteps. Lady Dan came out with a group of girls. She walked to Patriarch Tian and asked with a smile, "Uncle Tian, are there any good ones this time?"
"Nonsense!"
Patriarch Tian pretended to be angry. "Lady Dan, you should call me Grandpa Tian based on my age. Don't be so rude. I will tell your grandpa on you."
"Ha, ha!
~
”
Lady Dan stuck out her pink tongue. Gazing into the white haze, she grabbed the two braids by her ears and said, "Patriarch Tian, let's make a bet. If someone can walk out in the time for one incense stick to burn, I will call you Grandpa Tian. How about that?"
"The time for one incense stick to burn?"
Patriarch Tian frowned. Rolling his eyes, he said, "This is not fair. You are cheating. Where can you find so many talents in Inhibition Formations?"
"I don't care!"
Lady Dan twitched her pretty nose and said in a spoiled manner, "You are old but in terms of seniority, you are of the same generation as my father. I will be at a disadvantage if I call you grandpa. Do you want to make the bet?"
"Eh?
~
”
Patriarch Tian suddenly turned to the white haze. His eyes glowed as he said, "Okay, I will make the bet!"
"Ah?"
Lady Dan was delighted. "Don't go back on your word or I will burn down your house."
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Patriarch Tian laughed. "Lady Dan, look. Someone is coming out!"
Lady Dan and the others were taken aback. They turned to the white haze.
The white haze parted and a young man in a cyan robe walked out.
"What?
It's him! "
Lady Dan pulled a long face. It was the white-haired young man that she almost bumped into a couple of days ago. She pouted and said, "No, he cannot come to the Chamber of Relics. He does not count!"
"Does not count?"
Lu Li had just stepped out of the formation of illusion when he heard Lady Dan's words.
To ensure that he could enter the Chamber of Relics, he used the Bloodvine. In the time for half an incense stick to burn, he had the Bloodvine guide him out of the formation of illusion. Little did he expect that as soon as he came out, he would run into this unruly young lady who said that he could not join the Chamber of Relics.
Lu Li was enraged. The stubbornness and pride in his bones were triggered. Glaring at Lady Dan, he said, "The Chamber of Relics, a super sect at the southern Divinity, is treating the recruitment ceremony like a child's play?
Patriarch Tian said that we should follow the rules.
I am following the rules. Where are the rules of the Chamber of Relics? "
By saying that the Chamber of Relics did not follow the rules, Lu Li was basically slapping Lady Dan in the face in public. He was implying that she had forgotten the public for personal reasons and had broken the Chamber of Relics' reputation.
Lady Dan understood what Lu Li was implying. She glared at him and said, "Who do you think you are?
How can you be so presumptuous? Do you have a death wish? "
"Enough!"
Patriarch Tian shouted, "Someone, bring Lady Dan in. The Chamber of Relics has its own rules. I am in charge of this recruitment ceremony.
Lady Dan, if you dare to make a scene again, I will report to the Chief and punish you severely! "
"Okay, okay, okay.
~
”
Lady Dan burst into tears. She glared at Lu Li and then rushed into the Valley of Relics with the female warriors.
Patriarch Tian calmed down a bit. Looking at Lu Li gently, he said, "Young man, the Chamber of Relics has its own rules. You have done well. You have passed the first test."
Patriarch Tian was reasonable and polite.
But Lu Li noticed that many disciples of the Chamber of Relics were looking at him with hostility. Thinking of that unruly Lady Dan, Lu Li had second thoughts.
