The Path Toward Heaven

Hearing this sentence, both the girls who participated in the selection of priests and the guests who came to watch the ceremony were a little surprised.

The theological books placed in front of them in the sacrificial hall are all undisclosed classics, not even in the seminary. Where did she read them?

People suddenly thought that she was a member of the priest's family, thinking they had understood something, and thought that she had a long history of family education.

Naturally, Mr. Xia knew that this was not the reason, so he glanced at her nonchalantly, and asked the priests to fetch a new theological classic.

As soon as the bell rang, ninety-nine black-haired girls and one red-haired girl opened the cover at the same time, which actually brought a breeze, and the picture was quite beautiful.

Girls read books in different ways.

Jiang and Xia's long fingers flipped the book gently, neither fast nor slow, very stable. Mo Zhi focused on his expression and turned the pages of the book the fastest. He finished reading the whole book in a few minutes, then closed his eyes and began to meditate. Huaxi's eyes were wide open, as if she saw something interesting, she turned the pages of the book curiously, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, I don't know if it depends on her level of interest in the content of the book.

But no matter how you read the book, the girls pay attention to their posture and are full of beauty.

Who knows if the priestess behind the sky curtain is looking at herself?

Only Zhong Lizi was different. She was not slow to turn the pages of the book. The problem was that she often went back to the front to re-read, her pretty face was full of worry.

Many people are thinking, did she forget the front when she saw the back?

As time passed, Zhong Lizi became more and more anxious, and his sitting posture gradually changed, and his legs under the skirt almost habitually crossed up.

Jiang and Xia had already read the entire book, and noticed her movement from the corner of the eye, and tapped lightly on the celadon bowl with their fingers.

Zhong Lizi got her reminder, quickly sat down on his knees again, and continued to read.

...

...

There was a soft ding.

Twenty minutes passed in a flash, and a hundred priests and female officers began to check at the same time to avoid being unfair to those behind in line due to the difference in time order.

Jiang Yuxia, Huaxi, Mo Zhi and other girls are naturally able to answer each other fluently, no matter which page in the book the priest or female official chooses, they can repeat it accurately.

Zhong Lizi was a little stuck at the beginning because of nervousness, but in the end he passed the test without any danger.

She passed the test, and most of the girls were naturally not stumped. Only two girls were eliminated because they were too nervous.

This kind of assessment is really simple, whether it is the girls themselves, the guests in the sacrificial hall, the people participating in the water festival carnival on the grassland, or the hundreds of millions of viewers in front of the TV, they all feel a little strange. How could the selection of priestesses be so casual after more than twenty years?

Then Mr. Xia announced the content of the second assessment.

The girls will fight against a military master specially invited by the sacrificial hall, and whoever lasts longer will be ranked higher.

If he could defeat that military expert, he would naturally be the winner.

In everyone's mind, that military master must be a general-level star-level powerhouse. Who knew that the one who came out from behind the curtain was actually a girl!

The girl was wearing a military uniform, and both her appearance and temperament indicated that she was at most twenty years old.

How strong can a girl in her twenties be? Is she qualified to be an examiner? Is she capable of defeating these ninety-eight genius girls?

A person as proud as Mo Zhi felt slightly angry, feeling that Jitang really looked down on him, and secretly made up his mind to defeat him!

The Chief Executive suddenly stood up, looked at the young officer with a gentle expression, and said, Major Ran, why didn't you tell me when you came to the Star Gate?

Hush, huh, huh, many guests stood up.

They didn't know who the girl officer was, but they could tell from the attitude of the chief executive that she was definitely not an ordinary person.

With whispered discussions, the identity of the girl officer gradually spread, and it was known that she was originally an officer of the Fleet of the Seventh Military Region, named Ran Handong.

It's just why the sacrificial hall asked her to preside over the next martial arts assessment? Why is the Chief Executive so gentle towards her?

...

...

Sitting at the place closest to the gray sky, Jing Jiu looked at the girl officer below and remained silent. When he saw her behind the stone pillar earlier, he was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this rabbit would leave the fleet and come to the Stargate base. It seems that it must have something to do with the priestess.

As for the second round of martial arts assessment, he has no interest.

The fact is also the same, the second round of assessment went very flat and fast.

At the very beginning, there were many gasps and exclamations in the main hall of the sacrificial hall, but all those random voices disappeared without a trace, leaving only the sound of silence and falling to the ground.

None of those black-haired girls could hold on for a moment in front of Ran Handong, and they all fell to the ground, looking very pitiful.

Mo Zhong, Jiang Yu Xia were also defeated by Ran Handong without any resistance.

They are the most popular candidates for the selection of priestesses this time, especially in the test of martial arts cultivation. Everyone knows that they have already advanced to the Liujin realm, but they were defeated so easily. In this way, isn't the realm of this young officer unimaginably high?

Zhong Lizi didn't create a miracle either, he was thrown more than ten feet away by Ran Handong's extremely simple swing, and he was so painful that he couldn't speak, if it wasn't for Jiang Yuxia and Huaxi's help, he might not be able to stand up for a long time.

Ran Handong glanced at Zhong Lizi with a strange look, as if a little surprised, he didn't say anything, and directly retreated behind the gray sky.

Unlike the grasslands occupied by hundreds of thousands of people and the main hall where thousands of guests gathered, there was silence behind the gray sky.

The lights and starlight from the battleship were exposed from the skylight, illuminating the bowl of clear water and the petals on the water surface, and also showing the appearance of the rear terrace.

The priestess sat in front of the celadon bowl, quietly watching the petals on the water surface moving with the wind, as if she didn't care about the selection being held at this time.

Aunt... Is there such a shortage of talents in the Stargate Base now? Except for the little girl named Jiang Yuxia, there is no one who can fight. Ran Handong walked not far from the priestess, knelt down on the ground, and said with some puzzlement: The red-haired girl you are optimistic about is even worse, she has never even passed the Golden Realm.

The priestess raised her head and looked at the main hall outside the gray curtain, her eyes were also a little surprised.

...

...

The picture on the gray curtain changed again, from the previous martial arts assessment battle to a single word.

The characters are very large, and the strokes are clear, giving people a very comfortable feeling, no matter where they are in the sacrificial hall, they can be easily seen.

That is a quiet word.

A bishop came out and softly read the decree of the priestess, which was the content of the third assessment.

The hall was silent, and everyone listened carefully to the bishop's voice, for fear of missing anything.

Even the people of the Galaxy Alliance who don't believe in gods know something about the inheritance of the priestess, and they know that the word quiet is the key point of everything.

For this planet, the last two selections of priestesses were based on this word, but the methods were different.

One of them was watching Epiphyllum give birth to its first petal at night.

Another time was waiting for the spring silkworm to spit out the first silk.

What will be the topic today?

The strokes of the character Jing on the gray curtain are slowly disassembled and deformed, and a new character is reconstituted.

liquor.

This scene was clearly presented before everyone's eyes—including the people in the sacrificial hall, the people on the grassland, and the people in front of the televisions on the entire planet.

No one would be foolish enough to think that the altar would use the amount of alcohol to determine the candidate for the priestess, which must have deep meaning, so they waited quietly.

The bishop did not give any explanation or introduction of the rules, but just invited the girls who remained in the venue to drink freely.

Accompanied by the slight sound of footsteps and the occasional sound of equipment colliding, countless bottles of wine were delivered to the table in front of these girls. There are spirits made from grains, ale, wine, and rice wine. There are so many types of wine, and there are so many of them. I believe that even if these girls are successful in cultivation, they will not be able to drink them all.

Each bottle of wine is marked with the type, origin and standard alcohol number of the wine, but there is no brand and logo.

The girls were a little overwhelmed, wondering what the hell this meant?

The guests watching the ceremony couldn't help discussing in a low voice, and there were probably several guesses. Some people said that it depends on the girls' demeanor and self-control ability after drinking. The problem is that the bishop didn't say how much they must drink. Some people think that the purpose of the sacrificial hall is to ask the girls to judge the age and brand of these wines, so as to show their profound heritage, and they have received a lot of opposition. This is the selection of priestesses, not sommeliers. Some people think that the assessment of the sacrificial hall has no fixed rules at all, but a comprehensive evaluation of all aspects. As for how to get a high score, you can find out later.

The president of Xuanyu Company was sitting in the second row, and he kept calm from the beginning to the end, without showing any strange expression, just watching Zhong Lizi silently.

He didn't expect that Zhong Lizi would be able to reach the third level, and today's quiet test was so strange, if she performed better... Maybe she really has a chance to enter the final three-person list.

He only knew that the red-haired girl had a secret connection with her father-in-law, and he didn't know what kind of person she was, so he had such expectations.

People who really knew Zhong Lizi would definitely not think this way, like Jing Jiu, he just hoped that the little girl could calm down a bit, and stop drinking if she couldn't.

Another example is the owner of the barbecue stall in the underground Minsheng block. He has personally seen the scene of Zhong Lizi getting drunk twice. Looking at the picture on TV at this time, his face can't help but become extremely ugly, and he even ignored the eggplant on the grill.

What's the matter? Mr. Dan didn't quite understand his anger, thinking that the more chaotic the assessment on the ground, the better the little girl would be. What are you in a hurry for?

The owner of the barbecue stall put the half-burnt eggplant on his plate and said angrily, You know what the hell, this girl can drink a bottle of ale.

Hearing this sentence, the people in the neighborhood who were watching TV with relish could not help but look at each other, thinking that it was over.

...

...

Only those who don't get drunk don't know how much they can drink. Of course Zhong Lizi is not this kind of person. She knows that she is a drunkard... Looking at the mountain of wine bottles on the table in front of her, her eyes almost went straight.

Subconsciously, she raised her head to look at the position where the guests of Stargate University were present, but she didn't find that figure.

She no longer cared about her manners, looked left and right, but still couldn't find him, so she could only give up in the end, with a frustrated expression.

What exactly is this testing? Even if it's not a test of drinking capacity, it must be a drink...

Just sneak a lick? No, this is too dishonest, but even if it is ale, you have to pour a bottle and a half by yourself...

Anyway, no matter how you drink, you will get drunk, why don't you hurry up and try to drink more before you lose consciousness!

Zhong Lizi suddenly thought of this method, picked up the bottle of grain spirits with the highest alcohol content, and poured a whole glass into the big glass.

The big cup weighed about half a catty.

She closed her eyes, not daring to look at it at all, raised the wine glass to her mouth, and... started to drink herself!

There was an exclamation from the crowd of guests watching the ceremony, because she looked so heroic when she drank.

Mo Zuo slowly shook a glass of red wine, looked at Zhong Lizi with a mocking look, thinking that drinking grain spirits with an ale glass, these children down here are really rude.

...

...

(If Lizi is Sangsang, tsk... these people won't be scared to death.)
