I save spiritual roots for the next life.

Chapter 223 Gifts
After giving Yu Ziyu the war preparation materials, Han Zhenren handed two quasi-fourth-level sky thunder talismans to Ye Jingyu, which was regarded as the reward for exploring the secret realm.

Ye Jingyu has not yet recovered from those war preparation supplies.

Li Jizhou's always calm and indifferent expression filled his mind.

"I'm really not as good as him!"

Compared with the seemingly heroic things he did, Ye Jingyu felt that Li Jizhou's quiet actions were the real strategists!

After coming back to his senses and seeing the double reward and the quasi-fourth-level Sky Thunder Talisman, Ye Jingyu nodded heavily and murmured to himself: "I will definitely not let you down!"

With the massive war preparation materials brought by Master Han, thousands of second-level talisman seals, hundreds of third-level talisman seals, as well as Qi-boosting pills, Qi-restoring pills, violent blood pills... and thousands of pills of various grades. , Yu Ziyu and other people leading this matter have greatly increased their confidence!

At this time, Master Shen from outside reported that the banquet before the martial arts competition was ready, the heroes were already in place, more than half of the Qianlong List came, and almost all the sects and clans ranked in the top [-] in Yan Kingdom had representatives in front. Come, wait for Yu Ziyu to arrive in person.

"Okay!" Yu Ziyu nodded and walked out.

The five people in the secret room immediately activated the projection screen on the wall, which was exactly what was happening in the banquet hall outside.

Those who are qualified to enter the valley this time are all real people with Jiedan or above, and those who are qualified to enter the banquet hall and sit with Yu Ziyu are at least the younger generation of the Yan Kingdom who can be named.

When Yu Ziyu came to the banquet hall, all fifty individual seats were packed.

"Fairy Yu!" Someone stood up and held his hands in a very elegant manner.

Some people saw Fairy Yu slightly nodding her head, looking very reserved.

There are also people who are affectionate from the moment Yu Ziyu appears, as if they have forgotten to say hello.

But most of them still sat with their hands crossed.

Yu Ziyu walked to the middle and bowed deeply to everyone present: "Little girl, I would like to express my gratitude to all of you fellow Taoists for coming here. You are so lucky in this lifetime. Thank you very much!"

"Fairy Yu, there is no need to be polite. If Kang can see the true face of Fairy Yu, he is truly lucky!" Master Kang, a direct disciple of Wuliang Mountain, smiled gently, showing his humility.

"Yes, most of the reason why we are here is to see Fairy Yu's beauty. To see her now is already a worthwhile trip!"

"Haha. Fu Mou thinks he is not as good as the strong men at the front of the Qianlong List. Before he came here, he didn't think about embarrassing himself on stage, but now, after seeing the true appearance of the fairy, he will fight for anything!"

……

Yu Ziyu's words immediately caused the following people to express their opinions incessantly.

Zhou Cang, who was standing behind Yu Ziyu in charge of dressing up, secretly pursed his lips and sneered at these young talents.

Facing the business alliance one by one, they just shrink back!

"My little lady, here's a drink to you all, let's do it!" Yu Ziyu picked up a glass of spiritual wine and drank it all in one gulp.

Looking at the geniuses on the Qianlong List, as well as the direct descendants and legitimate sons of various major sects and families, Yu Ziyu's confidence increased greatly.

The only person who wasn't happy was the arrogant Situ Yan sitting in the front row.

His eyes signaled to Yu Ziyu several times, asking Yu Ziyu to go over and have a word with him alone.

But she didn't understand, just smiled lightly.

There were also many people from the Merchant Alliance, but a few of them did not reveal their identities. Only Situ Yan came in person and was able to enter the hall.

"Master Lu, as the leader of the Hidden Dragon Ranking, have you encountered challenges in recent years?" Yu Ziyu deliberately bypassed Situ Yan and talked to Lu Zhanyuan with a smile.

Lu Zhanyuan is the chief disciple of Jiange, one of the top five forces in the Yan Kingdom, and the leader of the Qianlong Ranking. He is already famous all over the world before he is 90 years old, and he is considered to be young and successful in the world of Yan Kingdom's cultivation.

His arrogance was undisguised, and he had not spoken to anyone since he entered the banquet hall.

Even when facing Yu Ziyu at this moment, he did not treat her specially, and still said coldly: "Lu has not had the opportunity to test the sword with anyone in nearly ten years. This is the purpose of coming here this time!"

It's very clear that I have no interest in you, I just want to find an opponent to test the sword with!
Yu Ziyu didn't care about this, she wasn't interested in anyone at all.

"Humph, Lu Zhanyuan, aren't you a little too conceited?" However, no matter where you are, there is always a shortage of people who stand up for beauties.

Immediately, someone glared at Lu Zhanyuan and snorted coldly. "Please enlighten me!" Lu Zhanyuan didn't even look back, he just pointed outside and said calmly.

When the man heard the words, he was immediately speechless. He glanced at everyone present, but no one agreed with him.

This made him very embarrassed.

He was only No. 19 on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, so naturally he didn't have the courage to take on the leader.

"Fellow Daoist Ma, calm down. I appreciate your kindness and I respect you." Yu Ziyu smiled slightly and raised his glass to Daoist Ma from a distance.

Then he added: "Today is my little lady's thank you for coming to my banquet in Qingyin Valley. Tomorrow will be the real fight. Please don't hurt your harmony."

"Fairy Yu, please!" The real person surnamed Ma was toasted by Yu Ziyu alone, and the embarrassment of being stimulated by Lu Zhanyuan disappeared instantly.

With this episode, Yu Ziyu did not make any extra trouble, for fear of affecting tomorrow's major events.

In the following banquet, she brought all the topics to herself.

Answer everyone’s questions on the spot.

Someone asked him what other screening criteria he had besides his fighting skills.
She said that as long as the strength is among the top ten, it mainly depends on character and mutual sense.

This moment made the top ten male cultivators on the Qianlong Ranking immediately energetic. Except for three female cultivators, including Yu Ziyu herself, the top thirteen on the Qianlong Ranking all had hope.

First of all, we must have eliminated Lu Zhanyuan's incomprehensible martial arts fanatic.

Then the boring gourd like Tuoba Hai should also be eliminated.

Someone also asked how Qingyin Valley would deal with it if they became a Taoist couple.

Yu Ziyu agreed that he would pass it on to his descendants, and from then on he would be attached to the influence of Taoists.

……

After a series of questions and answers, Yu Ziyu answered fluently.

Almost all of them answered according to their wishes.

There can be no result anyway, no matter what you say.

The banquet ended with laughter and anticipation for tomorrow.

That night, Yu Ziyu once again summoned everyone in the Yu family to confirm the final actions to ensure that everything was ready.

The next day,

As the red sun rises in the east, the morning glow fills the sky.

Yu Ziyu and others stood at the highest point of Qingyin Valley, wearing colorful clouds, looking at the entire Yan Kingdom from a distance, with the light of hope shining in their eyes.

"Gentlemen, let us light this prairie fire together!"

Ye Jingyu, Zhou Cang, Han Zhenren and others all looked solemn and nodded heavily.

At noon, the arena set up in the center of Qingyin Valley was full of people.

Some guardians or servants didn't even have seats and had to stand at the back.

Outside Qingyin Valley, hundreds of water screen projections were arranged to convey the situation on the arena in real time.

As everyone was looking forward to it, Yu Ziyu's fairy-like figure floated down on the ring.

"Everyone, before the competition, the little girl has prepared a gift for all the fellow Taoists who have come from afar. I hope you all like it!"

Just when everyone was eagerly anticipating Yu Ziyu's announcement about the marriage competition, Yu Ziyu got straight to the point.

Immediately, before everyone could react, strange images appeared on all the water screen projections...
