Chapter 1280 The Four Great Families
At this time, the stands were full of people. The various forces and familiar friends who had come here were greeting each other. And the people who usually had some minor frictions were staring angrily at this moment and starting to curse.
Fortunately, these people knew that today's situation was not right, so they restrained themselves and did not take action.
Not long after, some more people came to the stands one after another.
"Look, someone from the Chun family is here. They are indeed members of the four major families. They are so powerful."
There was a commotion among the surrounding crowd, and a steady stream of discussions emanated from the crowd in the square like bees. Yan Wubian also looked in the direction the crowd was looking, and saw only seven or eight figures coming from the west.
Tianji flew over, and the powerful aura on his body was released without any concealment, and the crowd soon came to an empty place in the stands and settled down.
As soon as the people from the Chun family landed, some people not far away came up to say hello one after another. However, some people did not move, but just stood there quietly, silently watching the flatterers who were patting the Chun family's big feet.
It can be seen that these forces that have not stepped forward should not belong to the forces close to the Chun family.
"It's coming, it's coming, the Xia family is coming too, over there, look quickly."
At this time, several powerful and unreserved auras also rose from Dongfang, which soon descended on the stands. When he heard the people around him saying that he was from the Xia family, Yan Wubian's eyes flashed.
, the powerful spiritual consciousness immediately swept over those people.
As if sensing something, among the crowd of Xia family, an old man in his sixties suddenly lit up his eyes and glanced in the direction of Yan Wubian. However, when the old man reacted, Yan Wubian
The old man had already recovered his consciousness. Seeing that he didn't notice anything at all, the old man probably thought that his perception was wrong, so he turned around and continued talking to the people next to him.
"No, is it really not the Xia family?"
Yan Wibi, who withdrew his consciousness, murmured to himself.
As if they had agreed, not long after the Xia family arrived, the Dong family from the south also flew over. Immediately after, the Qiu family from the north was not to be outdone, and powerful figures all fell to the stands.
The four major families are so unabashedly spreading their own cultivation without reservation, I am afraid that it is also to show their own strength, to shock everyone present, and to scare some people who are not willing to fall behind the four major families.
behind the family
of power.
After all, the resources for cultivation are limited. The Four Seasons City has been controlled by the four major families for countless years. It has attracted the jealousy of many forces, who are all eyeing the four major families, preparing to look for opportunities to replace them.
It's just that these forces have never had a chance. Even though the four major families have been fighting openly and secretly, as long as one family is really going to be swallowed up by others, the other three families will not stand idly by and will all come to help. After all, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold.
Everyone knows the truth, which is why Four Seasons City has been firmly in their hands for countless years.
"Brother, I noticed just now that there is a girl in the Xia family crowd. Is she the girl Xia Mingming you know?"
Seeing that people from the four major families had arrived at the scene, Yan Tianming naturally knew what Yan Wubian wanted to know most now, so as soon as the Xia family appeared, he stared closely at the Xia family.
Seeing Yan Wubian shaking his head at him, Yan Tiancheng knew that Xia Mingming was not present in the crowd. However, as if he wanted to give Yan Wubian a little hope, Yan Tiancheng continued to say slowly:
"This is the first day of the competition. Not all the young people from the Xia family participating in the competition will come. Moreover, brother, I remember you said that Miss Xia didn't have much cultivation at that time, so she may not participate in this competition."
After saying that, Yan Tiancheng told Yan Wubian what he knew about how to participate in the competition.
The competition is divided into three days in total. Each family has four candidates. One of them will be the seed player and directly enter the finals on the third day. The twelve people in the first two days will determine four people to enter the finals and then compete with the seeds.
Players compete against each other, the winner advances to the semi-finals, and the loser is eliminated directly.
Although he understood that Xia Mingming's strength could not appear in the arena here, Yan Wubian felt that this Xia family was probably the Xia family that Xia Mingming and the others were going back to. There seemed to be a voice in his heart telling him that Xia Mingming really knew how to do it.
appear on this field.
At this time, an old man with silver hair slowly flew out from the stand where the Qiu family was. The old man landed in the middle of the ring, cupped his hands and arched them in all directions, and said:
"Today is another martial arts competition held every five years by the four major families. As the champion of the previous year, this family will host this competition."
The voice of the silver-haired old man seemed to be very low, but everyone present could feel his voice coming to their ears. At this point in his sermon, the old man paused and then continued.
"In the next autumn, I would like to thank all the fellow Taoists present for coming to watch the ceremony. I won't say any more nonsense. All the competition rules are the same as in previous years. Now the competition officially begins."
Just as his voice fell, another person from the Chun family, Xia family, and Dong family flew out and landed next to Qiu Zhutian. There was a small box in his hand at some point. There were only
There is a small circular hole on it, and all other directions have been sealed. There are also many inscriptions carved on the surface. When the spiritual consciousness is fired over, everything is rebounded one by one, and the inside of the box cannot be seen at all.
"The drawing of lots will now begin, and all fellow Taoists are asked to throw the jade balls of their contestants into the box."
After Qiu Zhutian finished speaking, three jade balls appeared in his hand, and he threw them directly into the round hole on the box. In the middle of the ring, the other three families also took out three jade balls.
Throwed it in.
These jade balls actually have the aura of the contestants from each family. The two jade balls drawn one after another are the opponents. The people who drew the lots were not people from each family, but randomly found someone in the audience to draw. This was mainly to avoid
Someone is messing around.
Soon, the two contestants were picked out by an audience member. Qiu Zhutian waved his hand, and a storage bag flew into the hands of the audience who drew lots.
Holding the storage bag in his hand, the person who drew lots was ecstatic. He stood there and couldn't help but giggle. When the people around him saw this, they backed away again and again, seeming to say that I don't know this fool.
Seeing Yan Wubian looking at the man holding the storage bag with a look of surprise on his face, Yan Tiancheng hurriedly explained it to him.
"The contents of this storage bag are a small reward for those who help draw lots."
"I didn't expect that people from the four major families are quite good at buying people's hearts."
Yan Wubian muttered secretly in his heart.
In the middle of the ring, Qiu Zhutian held the two drawn jade balls in his hand. He raised his hand and the jade balls floated in front of him. He quickly made a handprint in his hand and entered the jade balls. The jade balls shone brightly in an instant and flew out one by one.
There was a ray of light, one flying towards the crowd where the Xia family was, and the other heading towards where the Dong family was.
"Invite the two players of the Xia family and the Dong family to enter the arena. I hope that when you lose, you will take the initiative to admit defeat and not lose your life."
Looking at the direction in which the light was flying, Qiu Zhutian opened his mouth and shouted. Then, his aura surged, and a series of mysterious spells were shot out from his hands. In an instant, four white light beams flew out of his hands, hitting the four people in the ring.
corner.
A white shield slowly rose from around the arena and soon covered the entire arena.
Seeing that the shield had been raised, Qiu Zhutian said to the people from the other three families around him:
"Let's quit and leave the place to them."
After saying that, the figure flashed and came to the edge of the shield. With a spell in his hand, a light door suddenly appeared in the shield. Several people flew out one after another and returned to their respective family locations. And the light door slowly appeared.
