Couple cultivating immortality: My Taoist partner and I grew up through planting

Chapter 265 Four Arts Competition (24)

Next, the awards for the formation group were presented. The referee who presented the awards was replaced by the original referee of the formation group.

Shi Yan was the first place winner, and his reward was one million medium-grade spirit stones and a fifth-level defensive talisman.

Shi Yan was very satisfied with this reward.

He knows how to refine weapons, and he can also refine spiritual weapons by himself. Moreover, he has a father who is a master weapon refiner, so he has no shortage of spiritual weapons.

At the very least, there are still many magical weapons and spiritual weapons in Xinxin's space warehouse. Some of them were refined by him and stored there, and some were left by the previous owner.

Their situation is not very good now, but with the fifth-level defense talisman in hand, their lives will be safer.

Han Xin’s reward was 500,000 medium-grade spirit stones and a fifth-level formation plate.

She was not very satisfied with this reward. She had a fifth-level formation plate given by her uncle. In fact, the reward she wanted most was a rare elixir, but unfortunately this award did not include it.

After the award ceremony, the organizer and the Lord of Longcheng came out to give their speeches.

They were all talking about topics like how successful the Four Arts Competition was. Han Xin found it boring after listening to a few sentences.

Finally, the Lord of Longcheng smiled and invited: "My Lord's Mansion has set up a banquet. I sincerely invite all the contestants to come to my Lord's Mansion tonight."

It was said that all contestants were invited, but in fact, the City Lord's Mansion only invited the forty people on the arena and sent an invitation letter to each of them.

Their names were also written on the invitation.

Forget about those eliminated contestants. Although they also have the ability of the four arts, they are not worth winning over for the huge City Lord's Mansion.

Han Xin and Shi Yan didn't want to go, but they would have to stay in Longcheng for a long time, so they had to give face to the City Lord's Mansion.

But if this is the case, they will be in even greater danger.

The City Lord's Mansion might have invited more than just the top ten contestants. For example, would some sects have also been invited?

Perhaps it was because the city lord came today, they did not find any signs of being followed on their way back.

However, just in case, they did not return to the courtyard, but found another inn to stay in. After paying two days' rent, the two returned to their room.

It was not until the evening that the two of them dressed up, took the invitation letter sent by the City Lord's Mansion, and took the wildebeest carriage directly to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

After handing over the invitation, he followed the servants of the City Lord's Mansion to the dining area.

After walking for about a cup of tea, the servants of the City Lord's Mansion led them into a large courtyard filled with tables.

At this time, quite a few people had already arrived in the yard.

Led by the servants, the two sat down at a table.

At this time, there were already four people sitting at the table where they were, and they were quite familiar with each other.

They are all monks who ranked top one or two in each group of the Four Arts Competition, and the three tables next to their table are still empty.

Needless to say, this must be the seat specially arranged by the City Lord's Mansion.

Fortunately, Han Xin and Shi Yan were ranked first and second, otherwise they would have been seated at separate tables.

Sitting next to Han Xin happened to be a female cultivator, who was also the only female cultivator besides Han Xin in the Four Arts Competition.

As soon as Han Xin sat down, the other party smiled at her.

Han Xin quickly responded with the same smile.

When the other party saw her response, his eyes immediately lit up.

"My name is Yu Qing, I know you, your name is Han Xin, nice to meet you."

Han Xin smiled and nodded at her, "Yu Dao is friendly."

This person is too familiar. "Hey... you too, luckily I have you, otherwise I would feel so awkward as a female cultivator sitting among a group of male cultivators."

Although Yu Qing loves to talk and laugh, that is targeted at someone and is limited to female cultivators.

Han Xin glanced at the other people at the table and put it back.

"Well...you can talk to me more." Han Xin liked the woman named Yu Qing, so she decided to talk to her more.

"really?"

Han Xin nodded.

Seeing that she was so easy to talk to, Yu Qing immediately started chattering non-stop.

Han Xin could still bear it at first, because every time Yu Qing said something, Han Xin could hear something she didn't know.

Oh... I forgot to mention that Yu Qing is a disciple from a small family in Longcheng, so he knows the situation in Longcheng very well.

But after listening to her chattering for a long time, especially when the topics she talked about were no longer meaningful, Han Xin felt like she was not listening to stories or gossip, but rather listening to birds singing.

Fortunately, Han Xin only thought about it in her heart and did not say it out loud, nor did she show any impatience, otherwise Yu Qing would have thought too much.

About another quarter of an hour later, the other two empty seats on their table finally had their owners for the day.

"My fellow Taoists, my name is Qin Wenyuan, his name is Jiang Bing, sorry we are late."

"You are too polite, Brother Qin. We haven't been here for long."

Originally, when Han Xin and the others arrived, except for Yu Qing who took the initiative to talk to Han Xin, everyone just nodded to each other as a greeting and did not introduce themselves.

But Qin Wenyuan introduced himself first, and then everyone followed suit and introduced themselves to each other.

In fact, who doesn’t know whose name? During the competition, we all pay attention to each other’s games.

The previously quiet scene became lively due to the arrival of these two people.

Among these ten people, Han Xin and the other person did not have any enemies with any of them, so the chat was quite warm.

Wang Wushao, who had been enemies with the two of them before, might have suffered a big blow at the hands of Shi Yan during the competition. His performance was just mediocre afterwards, so he did not make it into the top ten.

Among the contestants who are currently known to want to harm him, Shi Yan only knows one, Wang Wushao, and he doesn't know the other groups that had followed them before.

This situation where the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light is really annoying.

While they were chatting, they unknowingly saw that the three tables not far away were filled with people. These people all looked like immortals, and they were all old monks, none of whom they recognized.

Great, that White Lotus is not among them.

It seems that not everyone will give her face.

At this moment, maids began to serve dishes to the table one after another.

"I'm glad that you all have given face to the City Lord's Mansion and honored me by coming to visit our City Lord's Mansion."

"City Lord Lu sincerely invites us. It is our honor to be the guest of the City Lord's Mansion. How can we not come?"

"Haha..., I invited everyone here today because I want to get to know you better and hope to become friends with you all."

"Look at what the city lord said. We are very happy to have the honor of receiving an invitation from the City Lord's Mansion."

"Yes, thank you very much, Lord City Lord, for giving us all this opportunity to get to know each other."

"Haha... I'm glad you all think this way. From now on, please do as you please."

After saying this, City Lord Lu sat down and gave a look to the chief steward who was waiting nearby.
