Chronicles of Celestial Origins

Wang Hua also saw what he was thinking, smiled and teased: "Senior Brother Tang must be interested in this?"

"Junior Brother Wang, isn't it tempting?"

"Uncle Bai is so generous, who wouldn't be tempted by the divine thing? It's a pity that I don't have enough strength and my skills are not as good as others. There are so many senior brothers in the late Yuanying stage here. Whose turn is it for me to show off my power? I'd better not embarrass myself and make trouble." People laughed."

Zeng Gan then said: "Let's forget it. With the cultivation level of Senior Brother Tang and Senior Brother Xu, they are not willing to just sit on the sidelines like us!"

Tang Ning said: "Even I can't help but want to make a fool of myself. Brother Xu's cultivation is very subtle, so it goes without saying."

Xu Mengyuan smiled slightly: "Others don't know your brother Tang's abilities, don't I? If it weren't for your outstanding strength and outstanding achievements, how could the Alliance Army directly promote you from an ordinary small team disciple to three levels in a row to the captain of the team?"

Zeng Gan was surprised: "Oh? Senior Brother Tang has been promoted to captain of the coalition army? I wonder which department he serves?"

"It was just my luck. When I faced the rebel attack at Xuanying Pavilion, I relied on the help of my brothers and was lucky enough to kill several rebel thieves. It also happened that the coalition forces suffered heavy casualties, so I was taller among the short ones. After taking over, Miao Tian was assigned the position of captain of the fourth regiment of the third column of the first army."

"Senior Brother Tang is too humble. It takes a hundred meritorious deeds to be directly promoted from an ordinary disciple in the team to a captain. We both serve in the coalition army and are well aware of the dangers of war. To be able to achieve such good results in such dangerous circumstances is no doubt about our strength. It seems that Senior Brother Tang should be a strong contender for the top spot this time.”

"If Senior Brother Tang can win the first prize at this banquet, it will bring glory to this department. In the future, he will retire from the coalition forces and return to the sect, and he will rarely be reused."

Several people spoke one by one, and exchanged glasses while chatting. Not long after, Xu Ziwen came to everyone with a wine glass: "On behalf of Master Bai Jintang of my headquarters, I would like to thank you all for coming to the birthday banquet. I wonder which department you are brothers from? "

"We are all from the Fifth Wing, I'm Xu Mengyuan."

"Tang Ning."

"Wang Hua."

…

Several people reported their names, Xu Ziwen smiled and said: "Today's feast, I have neglected you, please forgive me."

"Junior Brother Xu, you're welcome."

"There will be a show of skills at the banquet later. The one who stands out will be rewarded heavily by Uncle Bai. How many brothers are willing to show their skills?"

"The three of us are of low cultivation, so we won't join in the fun. Senior Brother Xu and Senior Brother Tang will fight on behalf of our headquarters."

After exchanging a few words, Xu Ziwen said sorry and walked to the table behind.

Everyone ate, drank and chatted. After more than half an hour and several drinks, a few disciples were seen carrying a huge black stone slab to the center of the courtyard.

Xu Ziwen walked to the stone slab and said: "Brothers, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend the feast. The column leader of our headquarters specially ordered me to lay out this fifth-level strength test board here for everyone to compete in skills. The top three are not only You can get rich rewards, and you can also go to the top of the mountain and show off your magical skills in front of many distinguished guests. As for the rewards, I have already mentioned them before. I don’t know which senior brother is willing to come up and give it a try."

After the words fell, no one rose up in response. Everyone was whispering among themselves and talking softly.

"Since the two senior brothers are interested, why not go up and give it a try. We also want to see the results as soon as possible." Wang Hua said at the side.

Xu Mengyuan waved his hand and said: "Let's see how others perform before we talk! So as not to be embarrassed by going up."

After a while, a middle-aged man with a big face and big ears stood up and said: "Since all the brothers and sisters are so humble, let Ji make some suggestions."

"Senior Brother Ji is so heroic, please."

The man surnamed Ji walked to the stone slab. After the maid lit the incense, he placed his hands on the stone slab. The stone slab emitted a faint light, and a column mark appeared above it, divided into ten grids inside.

The area where his palms came into contact gradually turned red and spread to the surrounding areas.

As time went by, most of the entire slate had turned red, and the slate's light became more and more dazzling. After the incense was burned, the man surnamed Ji left the slate with both hands. At that time, the ten grids in the cylindrical sign About three spaces have been filled with white smoke.

The light on the stone slab quickly dimmed, and the red color immediately receded.

"Ji overestimated his ability and made a fool of himself." The man surnamed Ji bowed to everyone and turned around to return to his seat.

"Is there any other senior brother who is willing to give it a try?" Xu Ziwen finished speaking, and immediately another man came out.

Immediately afterwards, five or six late-stage Nascent Soul monks came on stage to take the test, and the best score was three and a half squares.

After seeing everyone on stage one by one, Tang Ning became more and more eager to try. After a man with a hooked nose finished testing the force plate, he looked at Xu Mengyuan and said, "Brother Xu, aren't you going to take action?"

"If Brother Tang is interested, just go up and try, don't worry about me."

"Okay." Tang Ning stood up and came to the stone slab. She bowed her head to everyone and said, "Tang Ning, a disciple of our fifth regiment, has made a fool of himself."

The maid on the side immediately changed the incense stick. He put his hands on the stone slab. As soon as he touched it, he immediately felt a strong suction force, pulling the spiritual energy in his body outward.

The spiritual power in the Linghai Cave surged, and it was continuously transmitted to the stone slab through both palms. The stone slab turned red little by little, emitting a faint light.

After half a stick of incense had passed, the smoke in the column had only filled up a little bit. Tangning felt a little anxious. Although he was already using his spiritual power at full speed, he was powerless.

It had been less than ten years since he broke through to the late stage of Nascent Soul. In terms of cultivation, he was actually far behind Nascent Soul Dzogchen. His spiritual power was naturally not as good as those of Nascent Soul Dzogchen monks.

And this strength test board compares the amount of spiritual power in the body. If you can't pass this level, you won't even be qualified to enter the next round, let alone become famous and win the championship.

What is really powerful about him is the physical ability that has been bathed in holy blood and the mysterious green spiritual power in his body. However, the physical toughness cannot be tested on this stone slab.

Green spiritual power, yes, maybe you can rely on it. Thinking of this, Tang Ning no longer hesitated and mobilized the green spiritual power in her body to flow around her body and pour into the stone slab through her palms.

In an instant, the light on the stone slab became much more dazzling. The smoke in the column rose significantly faster, and soon exceeded three grids. By the end of one incense stick, the smoke in the column had approached four grids.

Tang Ning retracted her palms and returned to her seat. Several people looked at him, with various expressions of surprise and envy in their eyes.

"Brother Tang is really hiding his secrets! No wonder he was able to make outstanding achievements in the coalition forces and rise to prominence. I think the leader in this competition is none other than you." Xu Mengyuan said with a smile.

So far, the ones with the best scores on the force test board were only above three squares. Tangning's score, which was close to four squares, was far ahead of the others, almost having an overwhelming advantage.

This is not the first time for everyone to participate in such a wedding banquet. They have seen many strength test board competitions before, and they can probably know where the upper limit of the level of monks in the late Yuanying stage is. The results of approaching four grids of energy are among the best no matter where they are placed.

"There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the column, and there are many talented people. I just took advantage of the practice skills. The spiritual power in my body is slightly better than the others. It may not necessarily be true when I fight against them." Tang Ning said casually. Lie replied that he definitely couldn't tell others about the green spiritual power in his body, so he had to focus on the exercises.

While the two were talking, another man came out and walked towards the stone slab.

Everyone in the courtyard took action one after another. In the end, even a few monks in the middle stage of Nascent Soul also went up to try it. Of course, Xu Mengyuan was no exception and tried it. The cylindrical smoke on the stone plate only had three spaces, although it was not bad, but In a column full of experts, his performance can only be considered above average, ranking around six or seven. The top three will definitely be out of the question.

"Is there any other brother who is willing to come up and give it a try?"

In front of the stone board, Xu Ziwen had asked three times in a row, but no one answered: "Since no one is willing to try again, I will directly announce the results of this strength test board. The top three are Senior Brother Tang Ning of the Fifth Regiment. Zuo Zhen of the directly affiliated regiment and Qiu Ziyuan of the 7th regiment, please come up and receive the reward from Uncle Bai, who is directly affiliated with this column."

After Tangning heard this, she stood up and walked towards him. At the same time, two men at the other two tables stood up.

"Congratulations to the three senior brothers for winning the top three in the strength test board competition of our hospital. This is the reward given to you by Uncle Bai." Xu Ziwen finished speaking, and the three maids behind him came to the three of them with jade trays, each with a Carrying a storage bag.

"Thank you, Uncle Bai." The three of them took the storage bag and said one after another. Tangning looked inside and found that there were thirty fist-sized purple spiritual stones in the storage bag, equivalent to 30 million low-grade spiritual stones. .

"The three senior brothers are willing to go to the top of the mountain to personally congratulate Senior Uncle Bai Jintang and participate in the second round of competition?"

"Yes." The three of them said in unison without hesitation.
