Tower of Trials.

Fangzheng took a deep breath and walked under the tower...

Under the giant tower is an extremely wide and huge high platform.

At this time, the stage was already full of people.

As for the 23 Martial Venerables, most of them had already arrived at this time.

Some are pacing back and forth nervously, while others are standing in place with unease on their faces, looking up at the tower from time to time. Obviously, although the Xia Empire hopes to have more and more Martial Lords, if the hard power or foundation is not enough, it will not succeed. of.

Basically, about one-third of the people are screened out every year.

They were all worried, would they be the one that was screened out?

If it is true...how glorious it was before coming here, how embarrassing it will be then.

But when you receive the invitation letter, you have the right to choose whether to agree or not. Since you choose to come, you obviously have confidence in your own strength, so no matter what the consequences are, you must bear them yourself.

And in the distance...

There are also about five or six old men with extraordinary vigor, some of them have reached their octogenarian years, some are still in good spirits, and they seem to be in good health!

These people are obviously of good status.

All have their own seats.

Fangzheng recognized it at a glance...

Hmm, those who look gentle and look like veteran cadres should be the people in the parliament?

On the other hand, there are some old men with rough faces and casual clothes. They seem to be careless... um... It feels like the parliament and the council of elders are probably equivalent to the upward civil and military positions.

No wonder they and not come.

He noticed Fang Zheng's gaze.

All eyes fell on him... Seeing how young he is.

Most of them smiled kindly at him, already guessing the identity of this person in their hearts.

Founder...

A man who turned down the position of Warlord of the City.

However, the elders of the Elders' Association did not have much hostility towards the other party. You must know...Fang Zheng's father successfully broke through the rank of Wu Zun three days ago, and officially became the city guard of Yunqi City. The reserve veterans of the Council of Elders!

Although it is very likely that he will be a veteran of the reserve service all his life.

But as long as he is a reserve veteran, although Fang Zheng clearly rejected the recruitment of the elders' association, there is not much hostility between the two.

Instead, it was another old man.

He seems to be very old, much older than everyone present, and his figure is quite tall, but his originally tall back is slightly bulged due to old age, and his eyes with unpredictable emotions are deadly. Staring at Fang Zheng, he couldn't see any emotion.

Zhou Yunze! !

Although no one introduced him, but it reminded Liu Xiaoran that the life of the master of the Zhou family was about to expire... and the old guy in front of him seemed to be the oldest among them.

Is he Zhou Yunze?

Seeing that my eyes are not very friendly, could it be that Zhou Qingfeng asked him to complain?

Fangzheng thought about it secretly, but he didn't care much.

Just like what Liu Xiaoran said, the old man in front of him has no lifespan. In fact, the older he is, the more he cherishes his life.

If you break through his bottom line, and he will not stop dying, I am afraid that no one can stand his desperate counterattack.

But if he doesn't break through the bottom line, he will spare his life more than anyone else.

Fangzheng turned his gaze away, but Chundang didn't see him.

Time passes slowly...

In the aftermath, more and more people were on the huge high platform.

Moreover, all the people who came here were of profound strength, and there were only a few martial artists, and they seemed to be the descendants of the younger generations of various families, who brought increased knowledge.

The real masters are those master Wu Zun.

And everyone also started to move around... Some newly promoted Martial Venerables met acquaintances and chatted a few words.

But it's just a few words of chat.

If you can't become an orthodox Martial Lord, this so-called exchange is completely meaningless.

"Your Majesty is here."

Suddenly, there was an extremely sharp whistling sound.

from afar.

More than ten limousines stopped under the high platform, and then a woman in royal robes walked out from inside.

The face is beautiful and majestic.

Although his body was thin, the cumbersome royal robes on his body were graceful and luxurious, generous and elegant.

"Join Your Majesty!"

Everyone in the room lowered their heads slightly at the same time, and when their strength reached the level of Wu Zun, it could be seen that the emperor did not worship.

And there were a lot of people present, dozens of people in all kinds... More than [-]% of them were Wu Zun!

Perhaps he was too excited, but several newly promoted Martial Venerables still took the initiative to kneel down in front of the empress... Immediately, there was a burst of low-pitched laughter.

As soon as those Martial Venerables had their knees on the ground, they realized that they were strange, and when they heard the sound of ridicule, they understood.

But at this moment, neither standing up nor kneeling... All of them could not help but swell and congest their faces.

Di Qingyi smiled and said: "You don't need to be so generous, I know your loyalty, since you are a martial artist, you should respect it in your heart, and you don't have to show it externally."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Those Martial Venerables took advantage of the situation and stood up, sighed lightly, secretly annoyed, knowing that because of this behavior, they would definitely be underestimated.

Di Qingyi waved his hands to the people around him and said, "Please rise, you are all ministers of Shaar's humerus, so don't pay too much attention to the red tape."

"Yes!"

Everyone got up together.

Di Qingyi smiled slightly, his eyes fell on Zhou Yunze, he took a few steps forward, and said, "Mr. Zhou, why are you here...Wu Zun's argument is important, but it's just a matter for juniors, how can I bother you?" You have worked so hard, you are already old, why don't you spend your days at home and come here?!"

Fangzheng's heart twitched slightly.

I knew that she was telling me what she said.

"Even though I am old, I should do what I should do. Just like this Martial Venerable's argument, it is the main way for the high-end combat power of the Xia Empire. I should pay attention to it."

Zhou Yunze said with a chuckle: "However, this old man is here, and I still have something to ask His Majesty... It's not because of my impudence, but because of the special situation at home, so I can only ask His Majesty to open his mouth."

"whats the matter?!"

"I want to ask for a genetic enhancer!"

As soon as the words came out.

Fangzheng's spiritual sense could clearly hear Di Qingyi's heart beating violently.

Chapter 422 I'm sure you two must have a PY deal

Gene enhancer? !

Fangzheng couldn't help but his heart skipped a beat, thinking, isn't this something exclusive to city guards?

It is said that it is more precious than spiritual energy liquid... Only those who take it at the Wuzun level are eligible to possess it.

Di Qingyi's delicate brows were already frowned, and she said: "Old Zhou, you should also know my Xia Ya's rules, which is to make the best use of everything. The hidden injuries brought about by years of practice can strengthen the five senses and lay the foundation for them to break through the realm of a master. But you are already a master, and when you break through to a master, you will regenerate your vitality and blood, and you will have a long-term body. The genetic enhancer should be for you. Doesn't work?."

Zhou Yunze said: "I am not asking for it for myself, but for my useless grandson."

Di Qingyi frowned and said, "Zhou Qingfeng, he shouldn't be Wu Zun, right?"

Zhou Yunze sighed, and said: "I also know that this action of this old man is a bit embarrassing for His Majesty, but the grandson of this old man has been useless all his life, and it is rare for him to have the mind to practice martial arts. Naturally, this old man will try his best to fulfill him. It can’t exert its full effect, but it can make up for the hidden wounds, Qingfeng is already a martial artist, if there is a genetic enhancer to gain, it will be able to repair the shortfalls of these years, and Wu Zun is expected by then.”

Di Qingyi frowned even more.

She was silent for a while, and said: "I, Shaar, have rules. For the country's development and livelihood, all resources must be used to the best of their ability. The gene enhancer is the most special thing among them. Because it can repair the hidden injuries of the body, only the Wuzun realm is allowed. Even if it is used by a master, even a grandmaster cannot control it, and once it is discovered that a Wu Zun dares to abuse the gene enhancer, he will be removed from the official rank immediately and will never be hired again. This has been the rule for many years. Humans and beasts have grown stronger so far, and this rule is indispensable, Mr. Zhou, you will not understand!"

"Of course, this old man knows. If it wasn't for this, this old man would have already asked other Martial Lords for a bottle of gene enhancer, but now, he can only beg His Majesty with the audacity."

Zhou Yunze bowed to the bottom and sighed: "This old man's family is in a special situation... His majesty should know that this grandson has always been absurd, and now it's rare to have an uplifting mind. This old man thinks it's perfect. Therefore, this old man begs His Majesty to help you." This old man makes an exception! This old man is willing to pay the old master's offering for a year in exchange for a bottle of genetic enhancer."

One year's dedication to the master!

The value is so high that it is far above the genetic enhancement liquid.

From this point of view, Zhou Yunze's sincerity is already full.

Di Qingyi heard the words, looked at the surrounding people, and asked: "What do you think?!"

When everyone heard the words, they did not hesitate too much.

An old man said: "Old Zhou has gone through fire and water for Xia Ya, and he has made countless achievements. He has a heart of love for his grandson. I think we can make an exception, but only this one!"

"That's right, the law is nothing more than human favors. Besides, Mr. Zhou is not an outsider. He dedicated his whole life to Xia just in exchange for a bottle of gene enhancer, which is not too much."

"It's not too much for Mr. Zhou to ask for a bottle of genetic enhancement liquid, but the problem is that after this rule is broken, once a precedent is set, who will have no descendants? Who will not have a difficult time? At that time, will everyone Ask Your Majesty to make an exception?!"

"That's right, a bottle of gene enhancer is nothing, the hard part is how to stop the mouths of the other masters Wu Zun Youyou!"

The people present were quickly divided into two camps.

Some are for it, some are against it.

What you say is also justified.

It seems that those who are in favor are the Upper Council.

And those who opposed it should be the people of the Elders, right? !

Di Qingyi didn't hesitate for too long, she waved her hand and said: "This is not a problem, Mr. Zhou has paid his own year's offering in exchange for the genetic enhancement liquid, rules are rules, Mr. Zhou, I want you to come out Two years of offering, since you urgently need this thing, then pay a higher price, so as to set an example to others, are you willing?"

After Zhou Yunze hesitated slightly, he nodded and said, "I am willing!"

"That's good. In September next year, the new gene enhancer will be put into production. At that time, I will let them produce an extra bottle of gene enhancer for Mr. Zhou to take. In this way, if other people want to be as old as Zhou In general, one needs to pay the same or even a greater price to obtain the genetic enhancement liquid! I think that not everyone is as affectionate as Zhou Lao."

Zhou Yunze said: "Your Majesty! Don't you have the audacity of this old man? Please give me a bottle this year, Your Majesty!"

Di Qingyi frowned and said: "But the spiritual energy liquid is produced according to the number of Wu Zun, and you can produce as much as you need... The raw materials are scarce, so it has to be like this. This year has been divided into thin ones, where is there any more?!"

Zhou Yunze said: "Your Majesty, Xue Tao, the lord of Xuanjiu City, died in the tide of alien beasts. There is no Martial Master among his descendants, so the bottle of gene enhancer is naturally empty..."

The old guy is here waiting for me!

Di Qingyi's mind was like lightning, and he understood what the old guy meant in just a moment.

Can't wait for more than a year?

Is it because he has limited time?

Impossible... This old guy has a lot of treasures to extend his life, so it's not like he won't be able to get them out in a year.

In other words, he was in a hurry to get this genetic enhancement liquid, so did he want something else?

For example, the position of the defender of Xuanjiu City?

Could it be that this old guy is planning to use his own power to hold back the position of the city guard, and then let his grandson break through to the position of Wu Zun within a year, let him resign from the position of councilor, and become the city guard?

Or simply take someone else's place and serve as the city guard general in someone else's name?

Although the Upper Council and the Council of Elders are not incompatible, they have always been at odds, and even if Zhou Qingfeng was able to become a Martial Venerable in a year, it must be a way to encourage seedlings to grow, and I am afraid that the success will be limited at that time...

and many more! !

Could it be that he put all his ideas on the salary of the city guard general?First destroy the foundation and forcibly break through, and then use the subsidy of the city guard to make up for it afterwards?

No...not reasonable.

This old guy must have his plan, although he still can't figure out what's going on, but...

Di Qingyi sighed: "Old Zhou, you have done me a hard job. There is indeed a bottle of gene enhancer left over this year, but I have already rewarded it for a certain great achievement... What about the things that have already been rewarded?" Can you get it back? You'd better wait a year... I set a precedent for you, it's already extremely embarrassing, how can I chill the heart of the hero?"
