Chapter 711 Three Test Questions

Su Lan's voice had fallen, but the hall still seemed to be echoing slowly. No one made a sound at this time, and time seemed to stand still at this moment.

"Huh"

After a moment of silence, there was a sudden gasp in the hall, as if someone had let out a long breath at this time. At the same time as the sound rang out, a young man walked out of the crowd.

As soon as this person came out, he slowly walked to the steps, clasped his fists and bowed. When he looked up, his eyes stayed on Su Yan for a moment, then shook his head and turned to leave the hall.

This series of actions seemed a bit abrupt, but almost no one was surprised, and no one laughed at his actions.

Every young man who could stand in this hall was a talented person who had been selected all the way. In the Xuanwu Empire, cultivation is secondary, and only those with superb alchemy skills will be respected by others. At this time, except for Su Lan and the city lord who had a certain level of cultivation, the people in the hall basically had a deep study of alchemy.

These people are not afraid of the so-called competition. Even without Su Ya as an excuse, they will see the truth sooner or later. But they have to hesitate, because the competition is coming soon. The family has been preparing for this competition for five years, and everyone here has been working hard for this competition since birth.

Although some people here may have the opportunity to wait for the next five-year period, their desire for the title of medicine has made it impossible for them to wait calmly.

After repeated considerations, these people have been somewhat shaken. So at this time, some people choose to withdraw. Not only did they not laugh at them, but they weighed their own gains and losses in their hearts.

The withdrawal of this young man seemed to help others make the final decision, and finally someone followed suit. Like the young man before, three young men walked out of the crowd again. They didn't say much, but clasped their fists and saluted and turned away.

Looking at those departing figures, Zuo Feng's expression hardly changed. If he hadn't figured out his own doubts, he might have chosen to leave long ago. At this moment, Zuo Feng's eyes flashed, and he slowly took out a packet of medicine powder and swallowed it.

This little action of his naturally could not be hidden from Su Lan, Yao Zhen and others. After seeing it, these people did not say much, but just showed a slight sneer on their faces.

These people naturally saw that Zuo Feng was injured. In this case, taking medicine powder to recover, the effect itself can be minimal. In addition, in such an environment, the strength that can be exerted by quickly recovering from injuries in this way will also be greatly reduced.

Therefore, the people who saw these not only did not say much, but sneered while waiting to see Zuo Feng's embarrassing appearance in front of others.

When Zuo Feng took the medicine powder, seven or eight people came out again to bow and leave. These people left decisively. But when this group of people left, among the approximately two-thirds who stayed, no one chose to leave, but looked at Su Yan with firm eyes.

These people actually had their own considerations. Leaving would certainly save Shi Li from participating in the selection of medicine sons, but staying to win the marriage of the Su family would also have a considerable reward.

If they win here, they may lose the ability to compete in the final competition for the medicine boy, but they can get married to the Su family. With the Su family as their backing, even if they don't have the identity of medicine boy, it won't be a big loss for them.

Those who can get to this point in the continuous competition of the medicine boy are all smart people. After weighing the gains and losses of all aspects, some people think that staying will be more beneficial to themselves, while others think that participating in the competition is more beneficial.

So when there are less than 20 people left in the hall, it can be regarded as a response to Su Lan's warning. Those who stay are those who are not afraid of danger and stay here to fight for this marriage.

"Since you have chosen to stay, I believe you are all mentally prepared. The people we choose from our Su family naturally have our own criteria.

I will prepare three competitions for you. This competition is to eliminate those who are not good enough, and to distinguish the best among you. And since we proposed this competition, even if we fail in the end, our Su family will give you some compensation, at least you will not return empty-handed."

Su Lan did not intend to be long-winded, but went straight to the point, obviously not wanting to waste more time here.

With the identity and status of the Su family, what they can give will not be too bad. Many people who stayed behind had some contradictions in their hearts, but after hearing these words, they all smiled unconsciously, and even couldn't help laughing at those who left before.

Selecting medicine is like a big wave washing away the sand, selecting the better ones from many excellent ones. Although these people may be qualified here, more people will still be eliminated. Those who choose to participate in the three competitions will also face elimination, after all, Su Lan can only choose one person as her partner.

Then those who leave will get nothing if they do not qualify for the final competition. And those who stay will still get benefits even if they do not get a chance to have sex in the end, which makes them feel a little happy.

Although most of these people have their own families, they will also get a lot of resources from their families. But those resources are actually used to cultivate themselves, and few of them will be truly preserved.

And the things that Sulan gave this time, they were really handed over to her, and they had nothing to do with her family.

Sulan smiled slightly and looked up outside the hall. Compared with the few people in the hall, there were many people outside the hall, and many figures flashed. Some of these people were brought by Sulan and Sujing, and the others were brought by the city lord.

When Sulan's eyes fell on the outside of the hall, a middle-aged man in armor stepped out and saluted.

Sulan said calmly: "Bring it up!"

The middle-aged man in armor responded with a loud "yes", and then raised his right hand high. Among the crowd behind him, several people immediately came to the hall with huge boxes. This scene made everyone a little surprised. They originally thought that the competition here might be related to refining medicine, and at most it was just refining some high-level liquid medicine.

Seeing Su Lan's preparation, they also understood the commander of the Su family. It seems that he must have put a lot of effort into tonight's competition, otherwise he would not have prepared so thoroughly.

The warriors walked straight to the steps in front of the hall without hesitation, placed them in a specific order, and then retreated. After placing these huge boxes, these people did not leave but lined up on both sides of the hall.

The careful Zuo Feng could judge from the appearance of those boxes that the weight of these boxes themselves was definitely not light, and the things placed in them should also have a certain weight. However, with Zuo Feng's experience, he still couldn't guess what was placed in these boxes.

Su Lan saw the puzzled look of everyone, but she didn't feel the slightest surprise. Instead, she looked across the crowd and looked at the entrance of the hall not far away.

An old man in gorgeous clothes walked in slowly from the door. As everyone looked at the old man who had just entered, the crowd immediately exclaimed in amazement, and at the same time respectfully clasped their fists to the old man.

"Mr. Zhong, how are you?"

"Mr. Zhong, you are here."

"Mr. Zhong"

These greetings kept ringing in Zuo Feng's ears, but Zuo Feng still didn't know who this old man Zhong was. It was just that when his eyes touched the old man's body, there seemed to be a faint wave flowing outside his body, and this wave gave Zuo Feng a familiar feeling.

The reason for the familiarity was that this subtle wave was somewhat similar to Zuo Feng's special telekinesis, but it was only somewhat similar, and there were actually differences.

Zuo Feng pondered for a moment and came to an astonishing conclusion. The old man in front of him was a person with extremely high spiritual cultivation. According to Zuo Feng's personal experience, I am afraid that this old man should be the one with the highest spiritual cultivation among those who have entered the spirit refining stage.

The old man in front of him was very special, and it also aroused Zuo Feng's great interest. When he was in the chaotic land before, he met Yao Xun and City Lord Li Shang, two powerful people in the Soul Refining Stage. Before that, there was Huan Sheng, who was also at the same level.

At that time, Zuo Feng seemed to feel that the Soul Refining Stage was not so difficult to cross. But after he really stepped into that level, he realized that everything was not as simple as he thought. Take Su Lan for example, it is hard to tell how old this person is, but at least he is an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years.

Such a person can't even step into the Soul Refining Stage, you can imagine how difficult it is to be in the Soul Refining Stage. And the old man named Zhong in front of him, although his cultivation is not as good as Su Lan, he actually has signs of condensing his mental power. This kind of person can already be called a legend.

After all, there are not many people who can achieve the sea of ​​​​mind and condense their own mental power by spitting out the way of cultivating thoughts in the body refining stage like Zuo Feng.

The old man looked kind and smiled as he walked through the crowd. He would nod slightly in response to those respectful greetings.

Under the gaze of the crowd, he walked up the steps and came in front of Su Lan and the city lord. After a few polite words, they turned to look at the people below.

Obviously, the first of the three tests that Su Lan mentioned was closely related to this old man.
