Build a faction from scratch

After packing up his luggage, Xiao Ranran set off at the appointed time, and Yu Jian flew to Cosmopolitan City.

When she arrived in the Four Seas City, it was already Xu time, the lights in the Four Seas City were brightly lit, and there was an endless stream of people coming and going.

Xiao Ranran didn't stay long on the street outside, and went straight to the inn to stay overnight.

The next day, Xiao Ranran got up early again and rushed to the ring to check the list of finalists.

After these days of competition, many people have been eliminated, so the inside and outside of the arena are much more deserted than the previous two days.

As soon as he entered the door, there was a wooden coffee table in the main courtyard, with a stone on it, and a dozen people lined up around the stone.

Xiao Ranran stood by the door and watched for a while, and found that every monk whose turn came would touch the stone with his palm, and the stone would flash red, blue, or green after being touched by them.

When the stone flashes red light, the monks often leave the ring with a smile on their face; when the stone flashes green light, the monks often walk towards the main room with some anxiety; when the stone flashes blue light, the monks often leave the ring in disappointment Place.

According to Xiao Ranran's estimate, red means promotion, green means tie, and blue means elimination.

Xiao Ranran joined the team, paying attention to everyone's movements while queuing up.

After waiting for about a cup of tea, the people in front knew the result, and finally it was Xiao Ranran's turn in the team.

When the previous person left, Xiao Ranran discovered that there was actually a description about the stone right in front of the stone.

"Light Stone
Usage: pour aura into the stone, and the stone will automatically display its color.Among them, red is promoted, green is pending, and blue is eliminated.The monks who have been promoted or are pending, please go to the main room to draw a new round of order after all the monks in this realm have finished the competition. "

After reading the instructions, Xiao Ranran put his hand directly on the stone, and poured the spiritual energy in his body into the light-emitting stone.Soon, a red light flashed on the light stone, indicating that Xiao Ranran had successfully advanced.

Xiao Ranran didn't say much, and immediately stopped the stone and walked towards the main room.

In the main room, those monks who were judged as a tie lined up in front of the counter again.

They also have to re-draw their opponents for the last competition.

Seeing this, Xiao Ranran lined up obediently.

When it was Xiao Ranran's turn, Xiao Ranran asked directly: "Hello, the light stone shows that I have advanced, am I now in the order of a new round?"

The cultivator behind the counter shook his head and said, "The mid-stage foundation-building competition is not over yet. Today is just revealing the results of your group. Just wait until August [-] and you can queue up to participate in the second round of lottery."

Xiao Ranran asked in surprise: "It will take so long?"

The monk glanced at her and explained dryly: "Many monks look forward to knowing the result sooner, otherwise they have no intention of practicing. You just wait until that day."

Xiao Ranran nodded, thanked the monk, and left the main room.

While walking, Xiao Ranran sighed, and complained in his mind: "If I knew it, I would have stayed on the mountain for a while, it's really troublesome to go back and forth."

001 comforted: "There are very few casual cultivators on Yunqi Continent. Ordinary cultivators are guided by sects, and they are very clear about the process of the competition. It is probably the first time for us to participate without knowing anything. Inconsiderate place."

Xiao Ranran didn't answer, just walked out of the arena and took two steps towards the inn when she heard someone calling her.

Tang Xuan, Tang Mo, and her two senior brothers were standing not far from the outer wall of the arena, browsing the names of those who had advanced.

In order to make it easier for other people to check their names, in addition to the shining stones inside the arena, the names of those who have advanced in each realm will also be posted on the outer wall of the arena.

Seeing Xiao Ranran, Tang Xuan was as enthusiastic as ever, and shouted loudly: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, you're here too? I just saw a name exactly like yours on the red paper, and I'm still guessing with my brothers if it's you." .”

Xiao Ranran didn't answer, and approached the four of them with the eyes of the people around him, greeted Tang Xuan, Tang Mo and the others politely, and looked in the direction Tang Xuan pointed--as expected, he saw that under the classification of the middle stage of foundation establishment. There are six words of Xiaoyaopai-Xiao Ranran.

Thinking it was me, Xiao Ranran didn't deny it, nodded and said, "It's me, what's the result of your competition?"

Tang Xuan immediately pointed to the other three places, and said, "Here, look. My brother and the two senior brothers have both advanced."

With Tang Xuan's instructions, Xiao Ranran discovered that among the three, Tang Mo had the highest realm, at the middle stage of foundation establishment, while Wu Ping and Li Xiyuan were both at the early stage of foundation establishment.

This is the second time that several of them met in Universal City.And Tang Xuan and Tang Mo have always wanted to make friends. Taking this opportunity, Tang Mo suggested: "In order to celebrate our promotion, the few of us are going to Zuixianlou for a few drinks. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Xiao is free to go together?"

As the most famous restaurant in Qian Kingdom, Zuixianlou only serves monks, not ordinary people.And Zuixianlou in Universal City is just one of the branches of Zuixianlou, the largest restaurant in the capital.

Xiao Ranran asked 001 about the general situation of the restaurant when passing by Zuixianlou.

According to 001, Zuixianlou has a great reputation, but it's not as unattainable as she thought.Because the Four Seas City is the farthest from the capital and the southernmost main city in the country, its tax revenue and the economic situation of the surrounding sects rank last among all the cities.

The shopkeeper of Drunken Immortal Building in the Four Seas City has long adjusted his cuisine according to the actual situation, and introduced dishes that are more suitable for the monks around the Four Seas City.

To put it bluntly, it is to adapt measures to local conditions and introduce some cheaper dishes, so the monks around the Four Seas City can afford it even if they grit their teeth.

But no matter how cheap the dishes are, the style of Zuixianlou cannot be lost, so any dish in Zuixianlou will cost hundreds of low-grade spirit stones.

According to the posture of the four of Tang Xuan, it is estimated that a thousand low-grade spirit stones would not be able to escape this meal.

Xiao Ranran didn't really want to eat such an expensive meal.

However, before Xiao Ranran could say her refusal, the voice of 001 suddenly sounded in her mind: "Congratulations to the host for triggering the random task. Random task 500: The road to cultivation is long and long, how can one walk alone? Please invite monks who are not from this sect to have a meal at any restaurant, task reward: [-] points.

Random task 500: Be friends everywhere, and monks need to rely on friends when they go out.To be treated to dinner by any one or more monks who are not from this sect in any restaurant, task reward: [-] points. "

Xiao Ranran, who was still a little hesitant at first, quickly changed his attitude, nodded and said: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders."

Except for Tang Xuan who didn't notice, Tang Mo, Wu Ping and Li Xiyuan all noticed that Xiao Ranran's attitude suddenly changed from hesitation to agreement.However, the three big men were not careful, and they didn't think too much. They only thought that Xiao Ranran was hesitant because he was not familiar with them.

After confirming that she was going there, the three of them walked towards Zuixian Tower in front of her and Tang Xuan.

Today, the query of the results of the competition was opened, and many monks gathered in the hall of Zuixian Tower, discussing the names on the list.

As ordinary foundation-building stage monks, the few of them, of course, did not enjoy the private room treatment, and were led to an ordinary round table by Xiao Er.
