Seeing that the five-year enshrinement examination date for the Tang royal family was getting closer and closer, countless large and small forces from all over the Tang Dynasty began to pour into Tiandu City from all directions. Within a few days, almost all the inns in Tiandu City were packed. .

Becoming a royal servant has many benefits. Not only can you enjoy the royal courtesy and various cultivation resources, but when you do business in the Tang Kingdom, you will also be taken care of by the royal family in all aspects. It goes smoothly, even for a small family or a small force, as long as it is If you have the ability to become a royal servant, your strength can also develop rapidly.

For example, the Liu family in Tiandu City was originally just a small and unknown family. Later, several cultivation geniuses appeared in the family, and they used this to defeat all opponents. They have been elected to the throne of the royal family for four consecutive terms, and with the help of With the royal resources and support, they surpassed the Wang family, the original first family in Tiandu City, and became the new overlord of Tiandu City.

Such huge interests will naturally affect the nerves of all parties. Therefore, the battle for royal offerings is extremely competitive. People as powerful as the Liu family and the Wang family do not dare to neglect at all. They have begun to collect intelligence early and study the plans of their opponents. situation, and then formulate corresponding response plans.

On the surface, it seems that Tiandu City is still crowded with merchants and bustling with activity, as calm as ever. However, in the eyes of some thoughtful people, behind this calmness, there is an undercurrent that could stir up a storm at any time.

Purple Gold City, the imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty, is located in the very center of Tiandu City. It is a veritable city within a city. The entire palace is vast and majestic, occupying almost half of Tiandu City.

The moon and stars were scarce, and it was already night.

At this moment, in a main hall in Purple Gold City, several men and women in brocade clothes were sitting opposite each other, chatting in low voices. The whole hall was illuminated by the spirit stone lights.

"Feng'er, the imperial examination will begin tomorrow. Have you considered your affairs?" The person who asked the question was the middle-aged man sitting on the golden chair in the middle of the hall. The middle-aged man was in his forties and dressed in yellow. The man wearing the robe and bearing a majestic appearance is none other than Tang Xiaotian, the current Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

"Dad, I'm still young and don't want to get married!" Sitting in Tang Xiao's chair was a beautiful girl of sixteen or seventeen years old. The girl was pouting her rosy mouth and looking unhappy. Happy look.

This girl's name is Tang Feng'er, she is Tang Xiaotian's seventh daughter and the most favored one. At this moment, Tang Xiaotian, the Queen and several beloved concubines are discussing Tang Feng'er's marriage.

Zhongzhou Continent respects martial arts, and Tang Xiaotian is not only an emperor. He is also a warrior with the strength of the early stage of out-of-body experience. According to his wishes, his daughter's future husband may simply be from this generation of young heroes who participated in the imperial examination. Among them, Tang Feng'er clamored to stay with her parents for a few more years and did not want to marry young. The family was trying to persuade her.

Tang Xiaotian pointed at Tang Feng'er and said with a smile: "You are already a seventeen-year-old girl. You still call her young? Your sister was only sixteen when she got married! Feng'er, be obedient. Daddy will definitely choose a good husband for you!"

The queen also advised: "Yes, Feng'er. Daughters' families always have to get married, so you can't stay with your parents all your life, right? Listen to your father and find a good husband to marry. Someone will love you and love you in the future. It also saves your parents from having to worry about you anymore!"

Several other concubines also gathered around Tang Feng'er, trying to persuade her with every word.

The white spirit stone light shines on Tang Feng'er's pretty and picturesque face with melon seeds, spring-colored eyebrows, bright eyes, pink and jade nose, and a little red lips. At a young age, she reveals a unique and alluring charm.

Several mouths around her kept talking, and Tang Feng'er felt irritated, angry and anxious. She simply covered her ears and shouted: "Okay, okay, I will listen to you, I will marry you! But... I have a condition!"

"Conditions?" Tang Xiaotian smiled and said, "Oh? Come and hear it!"

Tang Feng'er rolled her eyes and said: "Tomorrow's consecration palace examination, I will watch from the sidelines, and then I will choose a husband. Whoever I like will be married!"

The queen hesitated: "This...isn't appropriate..."

Tang Xiao, who was born with a bold nature, waved his hand and said: "Okay! It's up to you! But we have agreed in advance that we don't want those with abnormal facial features, those with poor strength, and those who are too old, otherwise it will damage the face of my royal family.

!”

"Tch, you underestimate your daughter too much!" Tang Feng'er raised her pointed chin and said, "The husband I personally selected will definitely be the best among men!"

The autumn air is crisp and clear, and it is another good weather.

In the early morning, the morning sun had just risen. On the huge square in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Purple Gold City of the Imperial Palace of the Tang Dynasty, many warriors from all directions had gathered. These warriors came in groups and followed the areas designated in advance.

Standing still, the camps are clearly defined, and you can tell at a glance that they belong to different families and sects.

These warriors came here with only one purpose, and that was to defeat all their opponents in the five-year Royal Enshrinement Examination, replace them with the Liu family, and become the new enshrinement of the Tang royal family.

Of course, if these warriors knew that whoever performed well in this year's enshrinement examination would be favored by the charming little royal princess, they would be even more excited.

The enshrinement palace examination is based on strength. Each force sends its three most powerful representatives to participate in the competition. Whichever force wins last will be qualified to become a royal envoy.

There is a huge stone platform built in the center of the square. After the palace examination begins, it is specially used for the competition between various forces. The warriors stand around the stone platform and everything on the stone platform can be seen clearly.

After a while, the royal family headed by Tang Xiaotian appeared on the north side of the stone platform, sitting in order under a huge awning that had been set up, preparing to watch the upcoming palace examination competition.

Although there are many large and small forces participating in the Enshrinement Hall Examination, most of them are just here to join in the fun. Only a few are truly qualified to compete for the enshrinement position, among which the Liu Family and Wang Family in Tiandu City are the most powerful.

The Wang family served several royal families decades ago, and the Liu family came to replace them. These two families are as powerful as clouds, far beyond the comparison of other forces. They are the focus of this competition. If nothing else, they must

It will fall on both of them.

As the old royal family, the Liu family and the Wang family have a transcendent status. The other warriors are all standing. Only some core warriors from their two families have been given seats by the emperor. At this moment, several warriors sitting in the row of chairs at the front of the two families,

They are the middle-ranking forces selected by the two families to participate in this royal enshrinement examination.

In the camp of the Wang family, the head of the family Wang Yishan and a group of elders were sitting, while the Liu family was in almost the same formation, with the head of the family Liu Yuanzong and all the elders all taking action.

The two big families, Liu and Wang, are not far apart. People from both sides are looking at each other with hostility, speculating on which people the other side will send to compete in this enshrinement test.

"The young man sitting next to Liu Yuanzong is said to be Xue Tianyi, the head of Tianzong." Wang Yue, the eldest elder of the Wang family, glanced sideways at the young man sitting next to Liu Yuanzong, who was as handsome as jade, and whispered to the family leader Wang Yishan.

Wang Yishan glanced at Xue Tianyi and said: "Sure enough, he is young enough...Does the Great Elder know how strong he is?"

Wang Yue shook his head and said: "It's mysterious. I can't see it."

Wang Yishan frowned and said: "Being able to become the leader of a sect and lead more than twenty people to destroy the entire Hua sect. Moreover, he is also a respectable ally of the Liu family, so his strength should not be too weak."

He turned sideways, with a flattering smile on his prim and serious face, and said to the man in silver who was over sixty years old on the other side: "Elder Yin, whether you can defeat the Liu family this time and become a royal servant depends entirely on you.

Got it!"

The old man in silver waved his hand and said carelessly: "Don't worry, I'm here, this Tang Dynasty royal enshrinement must belong to your Wang family!"

When Wang Yishan saw that the old man in silver was full of confidence and knew that his cultivation was unfathomable, he felt relieved and the smile on his face became a little wider.

The name of this old man in silver is Yin He. He is one of the elders of the Silver Sword Sect, a super sect in the Central Continent.

They did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to hire Yinhe as the worship elder of the Wang family. In this palace examination, they wanted to defeat the Liu family and take back the position of royal worshiper, so they moved Yinhe out.

Thinking about the Wang family, Yinhe's cultivation is strong, and with him on the battlefield, he will definitely be able to turn the tide at the critical moment of the palace examination. This time, the Wang family will regain its prestige and surpass the Liu family, which is a sure thing.

The Liu family has formed an alliance with Tianzong? Hey, how can the small Tianzong be compared with the super sect Silver Sword Sect on the mainland? Yinhe can sweep the entire Tianzong with one action!

The palace examination adopts a best-of-five-game system. Each force can only send five people to participate. No matter which force can win three games of the other party, it can enter the next round.

The two forces fighting to the end will face off, and the winner will be the new royal enshrinement.

Since it is a competition of martial arts, it is inevitable that there will be bloodshed, but the Tang Dynasty has already stipulated that as long as one of the two sides voluntarily admits defeat, the other side will not be allowed to kill again. Even if the two sides have great hatred, please wait in private.

Go and solve the problem, the royal family is not allowed to act wildly.

If someone commits a foul or disobeys, they will be punished by the Tang royal family. Not to mention the 100,000 Royal Guardsmen composed of cultivators stationed inside and outside Tiandu City, and none of the hundreds of royal worshipers are vegetarians.

When people join forces, even a strong cultivator who has reached the integration stage will have a big headache.

Of course, above the integration stage, there are also strong people in the Tribulation Stage and Mahayana Stage, but most of the strong people in these two realms live in seclusion, practicing in seclusion, not caring about worldly affairs, and preparing for the final ascension. Generally speaking,

He will never show his face easily, so a cultivator in the integration stage can be regarded as a top powerhouse who can dominate the Zhongzhou Continent.

Although you cannot kill people, it is still common to be injured or maimed in a martial arts competition. Therefore, if there is a grudge between the two sides, the stronger party will find ways to injure and maim the opponent to gain psychological pleasure, while the injured person can only blame
