Life Hunter

Yu Ping moved his nose, looked at the dried fish in Cui Zhiyun's hand, and said, "What kind of fish is that? I've never eaten it."

Cui Zhiyun smiled and said, "Would you like to try the grilled dried fish made from the white striped fish in the big river?"

"Shall I trade with you?" Yu Ping took out the paper package of dried meat and handed it to Cui Zhiyun. Cui Zhiyun handed over a package of dried grilled fish and took the dried meat.

"Well, not bad..." Yu Ping chewed carefully.

Cui Zhiyun took the dried meat but did not eat it. He said doubtfully: "You are with Master Xiao Li, right? Where is Master Xiao Li?"

Yu Ping looked up at several queues, pointed to one of them, and said: "There."

Cui Zhiyun looked at Yu Ping's hand in confusion. After searching for a while, he realized that Master Li was actually waiting in line.

"That's not right...Ah, Master Xiao Li is a middle-grade fortune-teller?" Cui Zhiyun turned his head blankly and looked at Yu Ping.

"Yes." Yu Ping said and continued eating grilled dried fish.

"But...but...sure enough...but it's still wrong..." Cui Zhiyun was confused. His father also said that Master Li didn't spend more time studying, and that the fortune-teller was different from others. The promotion of the fortune-teller was far away. Slower than other monks, even the lowest sixth-grade life magician among the middle-grade, many people have to spend their whole life. Master Xiao Li is so young, how come...

Cui Zhiyun looked at the registration team with confusion. Except for a few individuals, almost everyone was over thirty years old. There were very few mid-level life magicians in their twenties.

Cui Zhiyun frowned and kept thinking in his mind. The young middle-grade life magician was by no means unknown... The other party joined from Beiyuan City, which is the territory of the Zhenbei Army... The accent of these people is Shendu. Accent...Master Xiao Li and the God of Life Magician are together...

Cui Zhiyun's face was stiff for a while, and then he asked tentatively: "Your lord, is Mr. Yubei, the Marquis of Qiyuan Li Qingxian?"

"Well, now that we're here, we can't hide it anymore." Yu Ping said.

Cui Zhiyun was stunned for a while, then he suddenly looked up at the tall guard and said, "Then he, he...is he the 'Blood Sword' Zhou Hen?"

Zhou Hen remained motionless. He had always disliked this nickname and always wanted to get a more domineering one.

"Yeah." Yu Ping lived in Zhenbei Army for a month, with a slight Saibei accent in his tone.

"No wonder, no wonder..." Cui Zhiyun instantly figured out why his father thought Master Li's identity was the most mysterious, and why the boss of Wanhezhai took the initiative to greet him.

After sitting there for a while, Cui Zhiyun moved his buttocks, sat next to Yu Ping, and said with a smile: "The outside world says that Marquis Qiyuan is from a secret sect, and there is a senior protector behind him. Is it true?"

Yu Ping shook his head and said, "I don't know, I just know how to eat."

Cui Zhiyun looked at Zhou Hen, who looked straight ahead.

Cui Zhiyun said with a smile: "How about we exchange information? You give me the information about Marquis Qiyuan, and I give you the information about the river guards."

Zhou Hen and Yu Ping looked at Cui Zhiyun together.

"I am known as the know-it-all among the river guards. Since you two are members of the Marquis of Qiyuan, you can both trust me."

Yu Ping said: "Seriously?"

"Seriously. Many people in the River Guard Army like Qiyuan Hou. Those of us who have been to Qiyuan City all hope to retire in Qiyuan City in the future. After General Huang Tiantao left Guizhen, he played in the River Guard Army every day... No, It was to praise Marquis Qiyuan that the entire river guarding army felt that General Huang was out of his mind... By the way..."

Cui Zhiyun kept talking about the river guard army, and occasionally exchanged news with Yu Ping about the Night Guard, Qiyuan City and the Zhenbei Army.

The registration queue gradually shortened, and more and more people entered the mountain gate and climbed up the stairs.

When Li Qingxian signed up, the registered Tianshi Sect disciple raised his head and took a few more glances.

After signing up, Li Qingxian climbed up the stairs with the middle-grade fortune-teller he met at the fate-shu teahouse.

Climb all the way up the stairs, and after a quarter of an hour, the flat ground spreads out in front of you, and a three-story archway stands.

Behind the archway is a wide bluestone square, which serves as an examination room with a set of tables and chairs.

At the end of the square, smoke curled up from a large brass stove, and behind it, stood a quaint main hall.

On the black plaque in the main hall, there are three big characters with flying dragons and phoenixes written on them.

Temple of Prayer to Heaven.

Li Qingxian was about to walk to the examination room when he heard someone say loudly: "Brother Duan Tianji, please stay. Just outside the door, the two elders and Xuantian Dragon Boat scared me so much that I didn't dare to speak. When I got inside, That’s why I dare to ask Brother Duan for advice.”

Li Qingxian and everyone followed the sound.

A person next to him whispered: "The speaker is Qiao Zhiqi, a disciple of the Xiao Ming Sect. I heard that he has suffered a lot from the disciples of the Tian Ming Sect and has seen a good show."

Duan Tianji stopped and looked at Qiao Zhiqi quietly.

Qiao Zhiqi cupped his hands and said: "Brother Duan, you are different from ordinary Tianming Sect disciples. You have always had a good reputation. Even though you are aloof, you have never had any bad deeds. The chief of the outer sect and Lidao Shanguan are the virtuous people. But he spread the word to the world, no, to be precise, he threatened all our candidates, and even dispatched two elders and Xuantian Dragon Boat to suppress all the candidates and disrupt the order of the examination room. Why is Brother Duan a noble character, but he is a villain? "

Everyone looked at the two of them. Qiao Zhiqi's tone was calm and not aggressive.

Duan Tianji's expression did not change after hearing this, he pondered for a moment, and said: "Duan is in the sect and has received the kindness of the sect. When the sect needs it, he should obey orders. Duan is grateful for the sect's affairs. It is inconvenient to say right or wrong. But Duan can guarantee that he will go all out to abide by the mission of the sect established by the founding ancestor, and his destiny is to be good. I, Duan Tianji, should work hard to be good. As for the huge momentum this time, if it affects your minds, Duan will never shirk and apologize to everyone."

After Duan Tianji finished speaking, he bowed and bowed.

Everyone was slightly moved.

After getting up, Duan Tianji said: "As for the rest, I can't talk about it. I can only say that Duan will go all out to compete for the title of the outer sect and the crown of the Tao Mountain. Any further words will be of no use to the entrance exam. I hope you can adjust your mind and prepare for the exam with all your strength. Haihan, farewell."

Duan Tianji bowed his hands to everyone and stepped forward.

Qiao Zhiqi sighed and continued to move forward without asking further questions.

Li Qingxian nodded and walked to the examination room with everyone.

Everyone was talking in low voices, some praised Duan Tianji for his magnanimity, some said that he had a powerful city, and some thought that he was speaking sarcastically. After all, no matter how nice his words were, they could not deny the power of the Tianming Sect to suppress others.

Some people also praised Qiao Zhiqi for being able to maintain restraint even though he was once bullied by disciples of the Tianming Sect.

Li Qingxian and everyone first visited the Temple of Prayer for Heaven, and then were assigned to sit at a table and chairs by the Tianshi Sect disciples.

On the table, there are pens, inks, paper, inkstones and other stationery.

Not long after, all the candidates were seated.

The early morning sun shone on the entire scene, as if blocked by an inexplicable force. It only emitted a faint warmth and shone warmly on the body.

Zhao Qingchuan in the wheelchair glanced at all the candidates and said crisply: "The entrance exam is about to begin. All the rules and details are in the exam instructions. Next, you only need to abide by the exam instructions and answer the questions."
