Martial Arts Reigns
Chapter 942: Up the Ladder
Ye Ming blinked: Master, can you explain more clearly?
Ah Qing: Do you know how many cities there are near Taiyi Gate?
Eight seats. Ye Ming said.
Ah Qing: Through the accumulation of countless generations, these eight cities are actually controlled by eight families, known as the Taiyi Eight Great Families. At least 60% of all the cardinals and elders come from the Eight Great Families. They are selected by the eight great families. As for the elders of the inner sect and the elders of the upper class, the eight great families also account for more than 40%.
Ye Ming smiled wryly: Master, you mean, even if the disciple is capable, don't get full marks?
Ah Qing shook her head: Of course it's best to get full marks, everything has a teacher. If the Eight Great Aristocratic Families are too shameless, the teacher will take you to leave the Taiyi Sect and join the Nine Stars Sect.
Ye Ming was taken aback: Can we go to Jiuxing Sect?
With your aptitude and reputation as a teacher, you can go to any nine-star sect, and you can be an elder from an outer sect. And you are at least a core disciple. Ah Qing said, At that time, let Tai Yi regret it .”
Ye Ming smiled wryly. He didn't know if Ah Qing was telling the truth or joking. He said, Master, no matter how the Eight Great Aristocratic Families react, at least the 100 billion coupons will belong to me, right?
Ah Qing: Of course. And the first box also belongs to you. I think the things in that box may be more precious.
Ye Ming thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, Whatever, I'll try my best anyway, and if I get a perfect score, Master's face will be bright.
Ah Qing smiled: You are a genius, and you can't be buried anywhere. Your achievements will be 10,000 times, 100,000,000 times greater than being a teacher.
The master and apprentice were chatting, and the time had come. In the first round of audition, all the disciples gathered at the entrance of the three gates.
These three levels are climbing the ladder, calculus problems, and contemplating paintings.
Ye Ming reached the first level first, and saw a high platform with sixty jade steps connecting the ground and the high platform. Every time you go up a step, you can get one more point, with a full score of sixty points.
He saw that there seemed to be a teleportation array on the high platform, but he didn't know what it was for.
There is only such a high platform for the test, so people have to come one by one, more than 10,000 people come to complete this level, and it will take seven or eight days.
However, Ye Ming is a direct disciple, and the master is an elder, so the ranking is relatively high. He is the fifty-seventh participant.
Early in the morning, the two masters and apprentices arrived in front of the high platform. The surrounding area of the high platform was crowded with waiting people, and there were also spectators, including the elders and even the elder cardinals.
At this time, a personal disciple was climbing up the first step. The steps are so wide that a cow can lie down on it. When this disciple stepped onto the first step, people began to discuss it.
It's Niu Zhenfei, the personal disciple of the elder Qian Jieming. It is said that he is a genius. I don't know how many steps he can go.
Although Niu Zhenfei is a genius, he probably won't be able to surpass the 30th rank. Those who can surpass the 30th rank are all great geniuses.
Niu Zhenfei swayed after landing, frowning slightly. Then, he walked to the second and third steps.
During the first five steps, he climbed the steps like a normal person, but after the sixth step, his speed slowed down, and the first step was more difficult than the first step.
After the tenth level, his movements became very sluggish like swimming in water. After the fifteenth step, it was even slower than a snail, and sweat began to appear on the forehead, obviously very strenuous. After the twentieth step, his movements were extremely difficult, and he could no longer move forward after climbing to the twenty-fourth step.
At this time, the elder in charge of this level said loudly: Niu Zhenfei, you get twenty-four points.
Ye Ming was watching, when suddenly, an elder approached, as if discussing something with Ah Qing in secret.
Ah Qing frowned slightly, and said lightly: I'm not interested in deception, you can go, I'll just pretend you didn't say anything.
The elder left with an ugly face, and when he left, he gave Ye Ming a malicious look.
After the other party left, Ye Ming asked: Master, what does that man want to do?
The opponent is a senior elder, and he hopes that you can cooperate with them so that the ranking will be stable. Ah Qing said, I rejected him.
Ye Ming: The other party won't retaliate, right?
Revenge on a senior elder? Unless they are crazy. At most, they will send out disciples, which will be bad for you in the ring. But it's nothing, their disciples, it won't be much better.
Ye Ming laughed dryly, saying that the master's heart is really big.
The performance of the few people behind was even worse, and they couldn't even climb the twentieth step. Until Ye Ming's last personal disciple, he only reached the twenty-seventh step, which is not even half of it.
Ye Ming couldn't help asking: Master, in the past few years, has no one broken through the 30th step?
Yes. Ah Qing said, There is a person who has reached the forty-fifth step. He was once an elite disciple like me. But now, he is a cardinal elder.
Ye Ming: The cultivation of the elder cardinals should be on the Tianjun scale.
Ah Qing didn't answer, and said, It's your turn.
At this time, the elder in charge called Ye Ming's name. Ye Ming slowly walked up to the jade steps, without any preparation, he raised his foot and stepped up.
After stepping on the first step, he felt a kind of pressure, which was only aimed at the body, like the pressure of diving into the bottom of the water.
In the second stage, the pressure doubled, but it was not enough to make Ye Ming uncomfortable. Then the third step, the fourth step, and the tenth step.
At the tenth level, Ye Ming felt that the pressure was already terrifying, but his true strength was strong and his physical body was strong, so he didn't feel uncomfortable.
His performance stunned the people watching. The performance of this direct disciple is too relaxed, right? Pretended on purpose?
Some people couldn't help laughing: What are you pretending to be, I can't take it anymore, and I still have to pretend to be calm and calm, and see how it ends. Obviously, most people have similar thoughts to him, and feel that Ye Ming is pretending.
Ye Ming really didn't pretend, he felt relatively relaxed so far.
Stepping onto the eleventh step, he felt the pressure reversed. The previous pressure was more outside-in, just like the water pressure at the bottom of the potential water.
But now, the pressure is from the inside out, and his body feels swollen. Only then did he remember that those people before, after the eleventh level, their bodies were a little weak, and it turned out that they were supported by the pressure.
This kind of internal pressure is even more uncomfortable. He walked step by step until he reached the twentieth step. The internal pressure at the twentieth level is more than twice as strong as the external pressure at the tenth level.
This feeling was extremely bad, and he frowned slightly. But at this time, facing Ye Ming who had reached the twentieth step, people no longer laughed at him. Being able to reach the twentieth step shows that the aptitude is not bad. It is understandable for such a person to put on a show.
Stepping up to the twenty-first step, Ye Ming felt that there was a pressure on his primordial spirit. However, his primordial spirit is stronger than his physical body, and he is unaware of this pressure. Then until the thirtieth step, there was only a slight discomfort, and it was still far from being difficult.
At this time, people held their breaths, and someone actually stepped up to the 30th step. In my memory, in the past few decades, it seems that no one has reached the thirtieth step. The most recent one was a hundred years ago, and that person is now the cardinal elder in the door.
He can't hold on, can he? I don't think he tried his best. Someone whispered.
No one around has mentioned whether Ye Ming is pretending, because even if he is pretending, he is also qualified to pretend, after all, it is the thirtieth level, which is the height that only geniuses can reach.
Ye Ming stepped up to the thirty-first step. This time, the pressure on the primordial spirit suddenly became sharp, like needles piercing his primordial spirit, it was difficult to defend against.
Thirty-two steps, thirty-three steps, the higher you go, the sharper the needle and the greater the strength. By the time of the fortieth level, Ye Ming's brows had been tightly furrowed, and the pressure of stabbing the soul made him very unhappy. But it's just annoying.
When he stepped into the forty-first step, the crowd let out an exclamation. Obviously, the 40th step has already shocked everyone present.
At this time, Ye Ming secretly sent a voice transmission to Ah Qing: Master, can you make a bet?
Only then did Ah Qing realize that she had discussed with Ye Ming before and bet from the beginning on how many steps he could advance.
Ah Qing suddenly cleared his throat, and said loudly: Ye Ming is my disciple. I think he can reach at least fifty steps. Here, I would like to pledge 30 billion coupons. If Ye Ming fails to reach When you reach the fiftieth level, the 30 billion is yours.
As soon as this remark came out, the two senior elders immediately burst into laughter: No matter how strong he is, can he be stronger than Elder Han? Elder Han, he has only reached the forty-fifth step. I think he can go up to the third step at most.
After finishing speaking, the two upper elders bet 10 billion coupons each.
Ah Qing continued: If you bet at the fortieth level, you pay one for every bet. After that, every time you go up a level, the payout ratio will be reduced by 10%. Bet, only pay 80%.
As soon as this remark came out, people placed bets one after another, raising their bets to 30 billion. For the extra, Elder Ah Qing can only continue to add bets until the two sides are even.
Obviously, except for Ah Qing, none of the people present believed that Ye Ming could reach the fiftieth step. A joke, the strongest person in history has only reached the fiftieth level. Can this person be the strongest in history? Impossible, absolutely impossible!
At this time, Ye Ming really started to pretend, he was very strenuous, painful, and even forced a cold sweat, which was even more exaggerated than that of Niu Zhenfei before.
