Ji Chaoyun has suffered a little loss of appetite these past few days. After the initial nausea passed, he just assumed that he had eaten something bad and didn't take it anymore.

He didn't dare to touch the wild fruit again, so that the spirit tiger returned to its original form and he went back to the courtyard to rest.

Ji Chaoyun did not go out to the main peak until the stipulated hour was approaching.

All the disciples participating in the Tianban Grand Competition must draw lots in the main peak hall today to determine their opponents for the first round of competition.

Ji Chaoyun came to the main peak hall, where many people had gathered.

He was still a little uncomfortable, so he found a quiet corner to rest, and soon someone called his name from afar.

Ji Chaoyun heard this familiar voice at once, looked up, Ye Chenxing strode towards him: "Oh, what's the matter with your face? Uncomfortable?"

"It's okay." Ji Chaoyun shook his head and asked again, "Why are you alone?"

Ye Chenxing said, "Chaoyun, have you forgotten? Poor Xiao Beiran failed the initial test. Right now, he is sad in the disciple's yard."

Ji Chaoyun really forgot.

I was concerned about Feng Qi's affairs before, but I was only busy preparing for the big competition recently. He hasn't contacted Ye Chenxing and Bei Ran for a long time.

Ji Chaoyun advised: "Beijing is lacking in the roots, and just entered school this year, so don't worry."

"Don't worry, I persuaded him." Ye Chenxing smiled, "You don't know, he can use his work recently. Read the classics you gave him over and over again, just want to compare it to the next one Shame."

Ji Chaoyun nodded, and asked, "How about you? How are you preparing?"

"Well..." Ye Chenxing touched his nose, "Chaoyun, you don't know my level, I've been to addiction, I didn't want to take the place."

The two had just chatted a few words, the main hall door opened, and Kaiyang Xianjun and Yuheng Xianjun walked out of it.

Yaoguang Xianjun was previously possessed by the Mozu, and his body was severely injured, and he had to return to the Xianfu to retreat.All matters in the academy are now handed over to Kaiyang Xianjun and Yuheng Xianjun.

As soon as the two walked out, the voice in front of the temple stopped instantly.

Ji Chaoyun followed the disciples into the hall.

After all, it was a major event in Hongmeng Academy for several years. In addition to Yaoguang Xianjun, several immortals in the academy were already present.After the disciples stood in order, they saluted the immortals sitting in the upper part of Gaotang together.

"Get up all." Tianshu Xianjun's voice came from the front of the hall, his voice was low and muffled, and it sounded a little embarrassing.

Ji Chaoyun raised his head, just to meet Shang Tianshu's line of sight.

They hadn't seen each other for a month since the opening of the gate to the heavens, but Tianshu's complexion had not recovered.

Opening the gate to heaven requires a huge amount of cultivation base. Tianshu's old wound was not healed three hundred years ago, and this exhaustion almost instantly emptied the energy that the old man had recovered over the years.He covered his mouth with a light cough, looked away, and motioned towards Kaiyang to start.

Kai Yang stepped forward and pointed to the enclosed wooden box in front of the hall.

"After the preliminary screening, there are 54 people participating in the top ranking list this year." Kaiyang said, "Today, the first round of draws will be held. There are 54 draws in this draw, and the numbers will be compared in pairs. Number one corresponds to number 54, number two corresponds to number 53, and so on, you will be your opponent in the first round of the competition."

"The winner of the first round can enter the next round for a second draw."

Kai Yang simply asked a few rules and precautions, and arranged for his disciples to start drawing lots in turn.

Start with the yellow character level first.

The Tianban Competition is a competition of the whole hospital, and everyone disrupts the lottery, regardless of the rank of the disciples.Among the disciples on the scene, the yellow-letter disciple had the lowest spiritual power, so it naturally became the target of public criticism.

Quite a few people were immediately surrounded by people who had just drawn the lottery and said, "How many numbers did the juniors draw, let me have a look, it's not cheating."

The yellow-character disciples fought fiercely: "Go on, don't bully people here. If you want to get the yellow-character, right? I wish you can get Ji Chaoyun and see who of you can still laugh!"

Ji Chaoyun: "..."

Is he already a scourge?

In recent days, Ji Chaoyun's dragon ball power has gradually stabilized, his cultivation base has progressed rapidly.Everyone didn't need to ask, they could see the profound spiritual power lingering all over him at a glance, and Feng Qi had just succeeded in reaching the sky, and no one dared to provoke him.

Compared with the others, Ji Chaoyun looked calmer, glanced at the numbers on the wooden sign at will, and then returned to his original position and waited quietly.

This is because he has always had a good idea of ​​his hapless lottery. Even in the first round, he won't be surprised if he directly draws the mid-level Tianzi.

Secondly, his goal is to be the top spot, no matter who is drawn, it makes no difference to him.

"Xiaolong, why are you here alone, what number did you get?" Suddenly, a voice rang from behind him.

Ji Chaoyun knew who it was when he heard this voice, and turned his head: "Why are you calling that again..."

Bai Qiuyue put her arms around her, tilted her head and smiled happily at him: "Okay, only Feng Qi can call, I can't."

Ji Chaoyun dodged his eyes uncomfortably: "...I didn't mean that."

Bai Qiuyue didn't care, she leaned over and asked, "Let me see, what number did I get?"

Ji Chaoyun looked at him with difficulty. Bai Qiuyue glanced somewhere behind him. Ji Chaoyun followed his gaze. Several Tianzi-level disciples gathered there, whispering about something.

Bai Qiuyue said: "Everyone is waiting for me to inquire about the news, let me see it quickly."

"Look at what I do..." Ji Chaoyun did not conceal, handing over the present in his hand.

"Isn't I afraid of bumping into you in the first round, dignified disciple, if you lose in the first round, don't you lose your face?" Bai Qiuyue smiled and took the wooden sign.

A number is engraved under the wooden sign:

Twenty-third.

"Twenty-three...corresponds to the 30th." Bai Qiuyue calculated in her heart, and shook her head regretfully, "Unfortunately, I was on the forty-sixth. You didn't fight me."

Ji Chaoyun retracted the wooden sign and murmured in a low voice: "If I hit you in the first round, I would be unlucky."

Bai Qiuyue smiled and said, "Whoever says no, I don't want to run into you either."

Ji Chaoyun said: "I'll bump into it."

"Ok?"

Ji Chaoyun raised his head and looked at him calmly: "We will definitely meet in the last round of the ranking list."

Feng Qi succeeded in reaching the sky and withdrew from the top ranking competition. Bai Qiuyue, who was second in the previous ranking, naturally became the most likely candidate to win the top spot.It can also be said that he is the biggest enemy Ji Chaoyun wants to win this time.

Bai Qiuyue stunned for a while, and laughed: "Okay, then I have to work harder, don't miss the appointment. See you in the last round?"

"it is good."

After the lottery was drawn, everyone began to look for their opponents, and there were discussions in the temple.

"Okay, it's all quiet." Tianshu said, "Later, the result of the lottery will be announced in front of the main hall. Don't worry."

Only then did the hall calm down.

Tianshu stood up, Kai Yang was about to help, but he waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need it.Tianshu stepped forward and said leisurely: "Kaiyang Jun has said clearly enough about the Tianbang, so I will say something else. Recently, many important things have happened in the fairyland. I believe you I have heard of it."

Earlier, the fact that the Demon Race continued to create rifts was deliberately concealed, but the disciples of the academy actually didn't know much about it.But Feng Qi's ascension to the sky was so earth-shattering that he couldn't hide the matter.

With Feng Qi's permission, Tianshu made the ins and outs of the matter public.

This matter caused an uproar in Hongmeng Academy and even Xianyu.It's just that Ji Chaoyun stayed in Wenqufeng's retreat, only slightly heard of these things, and did not care.

Hearing what Tianshu said at this moment, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became serious.

"You are all the elite talents of my Xianyu. The future of Xianyu will fall on you sooner or later. The situation is not optimistic about Xianyu now, but the more we get to this time, the more we must cheer up."

Tianshu said: "Three hundred years ago, we were able to drive the Demon Race back to the Demon Territory and seal it. Today, 300 years later, we can still do the same. Let the Demon Race see if the Immortal Territory is as weak as they say. We are weak, even if we fight to the last minute, we will never back down."

Everyone replied in unison: "Slay the demons and never back down!"

Tianshu smiled and nodded, and glanced at Ji Chaoyun inadvertently: "By the way, the person who has won the top of the sky list this time, in addition to being directly promoted to the sky and the right to use Dengyun Tower for ten years, this seat also There are other rewards... As for what it is, you will know it then."

"Well, let's go back and prepare separately, looking forward to your performance in the competition."

"Yes, Xianzun!"

Everyone dispersed one after another, walking out of the hall door, while still inquiring about their opponents.Ji Chaoyun soon met his opponent in the first round.

Ji Chaoyun had good luck in the first round, and the number 30 was drawn by a disciple of the Xuanzi rank.

Ji Chaoyun didn't know this person before, and the two got the lottery.The disciple seemed unwilling to believe the truth. He held Ji Chaoyun's wooden sign and looked at it many times, almost crying, and walked away sadly under the comfort of his companion.

Ji Chaoyun stayed silent for a moment, and walked towards the direction of the Disciple Peak Teleportation Array.

After going out, Ji Chaoyun felt very tired after returning to Wenqufeng's courtyard.When Linghu waited in the yard, Ji Chaoyun greeted him and yawned and pushed open the door.

Since the two were together, the small room that was used by Ji Chaoyun was abandoned again.

Ji Chaoyun stepped into the inner room.

He didn't clean up when he got up in the morning. On the soft bed, the quilt was thrown aside in a mess, and most of the entire bed was occupied by piles of clothes.

Even if he knew that he was the only person in the house, Ji Chaoyun could not help but feel a little uncomfortable.He glanced at the door with a guilty conscience, slowly took off his shoes and socks, and climbed onto the bed.

A pale gold piping robe fell by the pillow, Ji Chaoyun grabbed the robe and wrapped it in his arms, and took a deep breath.

Five or six pieces of clothing were piled on this bed, all of which were turned over from Feng Qi's wardrobe.

Perhaps it was these days that I was used to being hugged by that person. From the second day after Feng Qi left, Ji Chaoyun began to sleep unsteadily.He has been mentally sleepy recently, but it is still difficult to fall asleep at night. Even if he falls asleep, he often wakes up at night, and his dreams are full of scars when Feng Qi went to the sky.

After a few days, Ji Chaoyun finally couldn't stand it. He went to the closet and stole a piece of Feng Qi's clean robe by his side, and then fell asleep peacefully.

From that day on, Ji Chaoyun stole clothes from the closet from time to time, and gradually emptied the closet.The hills of clothing were piled on the bed, almost covering him.

"There are still five days..." Ji Chaoyun buried his face in his clothes, feeling the familiar breath lingering on his side, and whispered, "If you dare to break your promise, I will... ignore you."

Feng Qi, who was far away in God's Realm, felt something in his heart. He turned his head subconsciously, but only saw the misty clouds outside the pavilion.

"If the gods lose their minds again, this chess game will be lost again." A clear voice rang in his ears, and Feng Qi suddenly turned his head. Seeing that the sunspot he was holding had been eaten by most, he was obviously powerless.

Feng Qi threw the chess piece onto the chessboard and smiled bitterly: "You forgive me. In the next 100 years, I won't be able to play with you?"

A young man dressed in ink calmly took in his son, and said calmly: "God is not at peace."

"It's strange that I can calm down..."

Feng Qi muttered softly, and then asked, "Can Lingzun give me a word, whether my mother wants to see me?"

"I have already said that it was the master who told me to play chess with God here. If I win, I will see God." The man paused for a moment and asked, "... another game?"

Feng Qi didn't move.

He stared at the young man's green eyes and said, "The matter of the fairyland cannot be delayed. If my mother insists on doing this, she will have to wait for me and then come back to make amends to her."

Feng Qi got up and wanted to leave, the man suddenly said, "Why does the god insist on the lower realm?"

"The battle between the immortal and demons will start, to save the world, but also to save people."

The man did not look up. He stared at the chessboard and said leisurely: "The gods have been in the lower realm for too long. Now that you have just returned to heaven, you should stay in the gods to cultivate yourself. The master does not let you go. It is also a consideration."

"Then let Xianyu leave it alone?"

"Who knows." The man said, "Maybe there is another turning point in this matter. Maybe you don't need to intervene at all?"

Feng Qi squinted his eyes, "You mean, someone can save the immortal realm from water and fire?"

"This world is like this chess game. When you feel that you have nowhere to go, maybe you just haven't found the right way." The man took out two black stones from Feng Qi's chess box and landed them in the center of the chessboard.

The situation reversed instantly.

Feng Qi asked, "Isn't this a foul?"

The man laughed loudly: "Are there few violations of the rules in this world?"

Feng Qi didn't answer.

He stared at the two side-by-side black stones in the center of the chessboard, his brows slowly frowned.
