Join this small team with Zhang Lingyun as the center, who are extremely united and friendly.

…………

The sun pours down from the gaps in the clouds, like a giant dragon spewing a golden waterfall. It is extremely majestic. It shines on the earth and exudes a soft atmosphere, like a mother's hand gently caressing a child, bringing endless warmth to people.

The ten-day rest period ended quickly. Due to the unexpected situation in the previous competition, Zhang Lingyun had to agree to the request of Fengyu Wanjiu and Thousand-faced Sand Cat to go together under everyone's repeated requests.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble and not want to reveal his trump card prematurely, Zhang Lingyun finally persuaded the two of them to stay in their consciousness sea space for the time being.

They also agreed that Feng Yu and Sha Mao would never interfere with their battle unless absolutely necessary.

Coming out of the luxurious carriage specially gifted by the emperor, Zhang Lingyun and the five people representing the "Zhengyi Sect", led by the palace servants, came to the Palace of Supreme Harmony Square in the Forbidden City, where they provided a room for the team members to rest.

"Oh, last time I came here, there was a pretty girl to wink at, but this time it's a little too deserted!"

In order to leave a good impression on the many beauties, Zhang Lingfeng woke up early to freshen up and dress up. He also spent a lot of money to go to the 'Yunfeng Boudoir' to buy a perfume suitable for men.

But the reality of the indifferent situation gave Zhang Lingfeng a chilling feeling, so he ignored the sharp glances from the men.

Even the beauties who had smiled so much when they saw him before showed distant and evasive eyes, which was very puzzling!

"I think it has something to do with that!"

Zhang Lingyun, who was getting closer to the rest area, accidentally spotted a black shadow passing through the room, like a hairless hyena with sharp horns on its head, and instantly understood the reason for the alienation and fear of those people.

"No way! The guy from the 'Dragon Hidden Holy Land' is too arrogant. He even let the hyena out to show off. He really isn't afraid of drawing hatred!"

Zhang Lingfeng was very envious of that Simu Xing's wanton behavior, but it was a pity that he did not have the ability and conditions.

In addition, the other party's behavior seriously affected his welfare of seeing beautiful women, so Zhang Lingfeng spoke with a sense of disgust.

"Mr. Zhang, I haven't had time to thank you for what happened last time. This is Prozac developed by my 'Dragon Hidden Holy Land'. It can resolve more than a hundred known strange poisons. I hope you won't need it!"

Simuxing noticed that the hyena Xiaotu was extremely excited and walked quickly to the father-in-law's rest area in the house. When he saw Zhang Lingyun and others arriving.

Simu Xing summoned the hyena Xiaotu back with a wave of his hand, bowed to Zhang Lingyun respectfully, and presented a tattered cloth bag with both hands.

"Miss Xing'er has accepted your kindness. Xiaosheng has realized that his cultivation is quite good and he should be able to protect himself. You should keep this elixir for self-defense!"

Although the medicinal effect of the green blood vine fruit in Zhang Lingyun's body is not as powerful as it was a few years ago, ordinary poisons cannot kill him.

Seeing the eager gazes of several people at the 'Dragon Hidden Holy Land' not far away, Zhang Lingyun politely refused the gift.

As Mu Xing is in such an embarrassing situation now, if this thing is kept by her side, it may have a life-saving effect in times of crisis.

"Mr. Zhang, the next competition will be increasingly difficult. This object is the unique messenger chalcedony of my 'Dragon Hidden Holy Land'. Just crush it and I will know. Please don't refuse!"

Seeing Zhang Lingyun keep turning in the direction of his companion behind him, Simuxing knew that the other party would never give him Prozac, so he took out a chalcedony engraved with a dragon pattern and handed it to him.

"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders. Ling Yun has thanked Miss Xing first!"

Normal team members should not have close contact in private, but this star obviously did not follow the routine.

In order to prevent others from thinking that the two parties formed a team in secret, Zhang Lingyun reluctantly accepted Simuxing's kindness and just sent this problematic person away.

"Senior brother, senior brother, we just got some big news. When a certain team is short of personnel, it can integrate other team members to continue participating in the competition!"

Zhang Lingshuang, who had disappeared for a moment, ran towards the crowd in a hurry and shouted out the news he had overheard from his father without any scruples.

"Hey, what kind of routine is this? On the one hand, the teams are not allowed to have private contact, but on the other hand, the teams are allowed to integrate into the competition. Isn't this contradictory!"

When Zhang Lingxiao heard this completely illogical method, he felt that his intelligence was being rubbed on the ground by those in charge.

"Are we treating us like fools? Fairness and justice are just gimmicks. They are just openly acting like hooligans!"

Zhang Lingfeng thought of the terror and danger of fighting a giant hyena, and the nervousness in his heart suddenly became tense, and he immediately cursed with rage.

"Little Junior Sister, did you hear this news from Master?"

Zhang Lingyun came sideways to Zhang Lingshuang, raised his hand and gently covered one ear, making a sign language that everyone developed when he was a child to express eavesdropping.

"Junior sister, when will you change your wayward habits?"

Zhang Lingxiao saw that the younger junior sister's eyes were wandering and she lowered her head slightly, not wanting to look at everyone. He knew that the third junior brother had guessed correctly and sighed helplessly.

"Since it has not been made public, this rule does not apply to us, and everyone needs to act in the same way as before!"

Zhang Lingyun did not show much surprise about this plan that he had already known about.

It's just that deep down in my heart I have inexplicable disgust and contempt for the arrogance and arrogance of those elders.

"If your skills are not as good as your body, then you will accept defeat and die. But when will their endless reorganization and fighting come to an end!?"

"It takes so much effort to maintain one's own country's team and enter the next competitive match, why not just have five people from one country fight in a direct melee!"

"This matter must not be settled like this. The emperor must give an explanation!"

The monks who had just learned that their side was being treated unfairly were instantly furious like roosters.

The members of Xuantian Sect and Kunlunxu went directly to the door as a team, looking for their respective elders to seek justice.

"According to what Smusin said, each team encountered monsters. Now each team is missing one member. Could it be...!?"

Zhang Lingfeng watched the eight people getting away, and he waved his hands around his neck in a very gossipy manner, and made a gesture of wiping his neck to ask for confirmation from everyone.

"The 'Xuantian Sect' was fighting that monster and happened to encounter a team composed of monks and warlocks from the Kingdom of Fa.

The fellow Taoist who was attacked and seriously injured during the melee launched a large-scale kendo attack in the form of a blood sacrifice. After successfully killing five of the opponents, he himself also died and the Tao disappeared!"

As a figure walked slowly forward, Yue Qingfeng's slightly hoarse voice rang out, answering the doubts in Zhang Lingyun and others' hearts.

"Sister Yue, is Kunlunxu also in the same situation?"

Seeing someone breaking the latest battle news, Zhang Lingshuang was instantly possessed by the God of Bagua, and rushed to Yue Qingfeng in three steps and two steps at a time, and pulled the other person to ask for information in a familiar manner.

"They were not burdened by the monster, but encountered a combined attack from the Rose Kingdom and the Austro-Hungarian Kingdom.

After everyone from 'Kunlunxu' killed four paladins and two monks from the other side, the warlock from the Rose Kingdom used his life to cast a secret technique, trapping a fellow Taoist and killing him!"

Yue Qingfeng told the facts in a leisurely manner, and everyone felt a chill down their spines and scalps.

With a numb feeling, I instantly understood why the two teams were so angry.

"Dong, dong dong...!"

Just when everyone was immersed in their own boredom, the pure and bright bell suddenly rang, distant and solemn, arousing a deep and grand echo in the void.

But when it reached the ears of Zhang Lingyun and others, it was completely the opposite. It felt as terrifying and frightening as hearing a reminder.

"The competition of 'Battle of the Forbidden City' is about to begin. Please gather all the immortal masters in the square!"

The waiter in dark plain clothes stood outside the door with a sharp voice to wake everyone up, and respectfully led everyone to the appointed place to wait.

On the platform of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, headed by the carved golden lacquered throne, His Majesty the Emperor exudes an aura of calmness and authority between his brows, making people feel like they dare not look directly at it.

Next, there are eight tables arranged in the same row. Eight special envoys from various countries with different body shapes, different clothes and temperaments are sitting safely among them.

After all the participating teams were lined up, a well-dressed chamberlain walked slowly towards the steps of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. After bowing to the emperor, he took the scroll handed by the chamberlain and faced everyone.

"The emperor was entrusted with the destiny of heaven, and the edict said: Enjoy the gifts of heaven and earth, and cultivate the well-being of all people. Now I am fortunate to share the prosperous times with foreign countries. I specially use martial arts to make friends and stabilize the four directions.

The top ten in this competitive competition will be able to enjoy the salary of a third-grade official in the country, and will be given a fourth-level courtyard in the capital, and can enter the court as an official at any time!

The monks from all over the world will reward you with thousands of taels of gold, thirty pieces of spiritual stones for spiritual energy reserves, and hundreds of pieces of fine silk and satin! In the hope that all my dear friends will achieve a good state, I admire this!"

After reading the imperial edict, the eunuch in fine attire consciously stepped aside and quietly observed the performance of the people below, waiting for the situation to slowly ferment.

"Being an official in the court will make you an official who controls a party. It is an excellent opportunity for your family and yourself!"

"Even if your practice encounters a bottleneck one day, you don't have to worry about these resources!"

"Taking a step back, if you stop practicing immortality someday, it would be a good choice to enjoy the glory and wealth bestowed by the imperial court!"

As soon as these words came out, a thousand waves were stirred up, and the spacious square was like water being poured into boiling oil. Even the envoys from the foreign countries who were under the emperor's command had begun to whisper among themselves.

From ancient times to the present, immortal cultivators have stayed away from the secular world. Not all of them look down upon the mortal world, but are forced by the pressure of life and many helplessness.

The Cash Emperor gave everyone an extremely glorious status with his golden words, indicating that everyone could pursue a path other than cultivating immortality.

Zhang Lingyun and others looked at each other and found that everyone was stunned and shook their heads slightly to express their ignorance.

No one expected that the two forces of 'Kunlunxu' and 'Xuantian Sect' would actually seek such great benefits for everyone!

"Cao Min (Wei Chen) thanks the Emperor for his grace!"

At this time, there were not only those participating in the competition, but also members of the diplomatic missions from various countries who accompanied them to participate in the competitive competition.

They stood up one after another, facing His Majesty the Emperor who was sitting on the dragon chair with a leisurely expression, and saluted with their arms clasped in front of them, their voices echoing loudly for a long time!

Facing the people who were extremely excited about fame and fortune, Zhang Lingyun had a bad feeling in his heart. He was afraid that the next competitive match would be a desperate fight for no reason!

"All my dear friends... I am flat~!"

Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor had a satisfied look on his face and accepted everyone's salutes, the servant in rich attire slowly stepped forward and slowly opened the brocade covering the tray in his hand.

A porcelain basin containing eight beeswax pills was carefully placed in front of the emperor for him to choose.

With a casual gesture from His Majesty the Emperor, the servant in fine attire picked up the beeswax pill that was lucky enough to be selected and opened it in full view of everyone.

As the words on the white paper were displayed, countless waiters swarmed in the middle of the venue, neatly placing the various brocade bags in their hands, and then quickly evacuated the scene.

The brocade bag that had just been placed suddenly rose into the air and spun clockwise in the void at extremely high speed.

In the blink of an eye, a huge aperture that resembled an array suddenly appeared and gradually spread to a distance of more than ten meters.
