"It's not good to be famous. Look at Murong Yunlan, how famous he is, right? As a result, he is remembered every day."
Chen Chen said sadly, as if he didn't want to be famous.
Zhang Ji pondered for a while after hearing this, and felt that what Chen Chen said was very reasonable, but after a while he smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Brother... you are right, but with your qualifications, it is too difficult to become famous!"
Chen Chen was startled when he heard this and couldn't help laughing.
He liked Zhang Ji's serious attitude. Although it seemed like he was trying to flatter someone, Chen Chen knew that everything he said came from his heart.
This made him very happy.
…
After spending the night at the inn, Chen Chen and Zhang Ji walked towards the school grounds in Jizhou City early the next morning.
It was usually a place for military training, but today it was used to recruit disciples for Tianyun Sect.
When Chen Chen and Zhang Ji arrived at the school grounds, thousands of people had gathered on the grounds.
Among these thousands of people, two people attracted special attention.
One of them was Murong Yunlan. At this moment, she was standing quietly among the crowd, but no one around her dared to approach.
Compared to the calm and calm days before, she now had a cold expression and an attitude of keeping away from strangers.
In addition, there is also a man who is like this. Standing there, there is a large area of empty space around him, as if this man can eat people.
"Who is that man? So awesome?"
Chen Chen asked casually, and someone around him immediately answered.
"He is the son of General Jizhou. He has been used to fighting since he was a child, so he has a murderous aura and no one dares to approach him."
"General Jizhou... his background is even more impressive than Murong Yunlan's!"
Chen Chen sighed in his heart.
The Jizhou general is in charge of the Jizhou army, and his position is only one level lower than the Jizhou governor.
Being the second-in-command in a big state is certainly bigger than being the first-in-command in a city.
After chatting with some of the older guys around me for a while, we gradually started to get acquainted with each other.
Coupled with Chen Chen's ability to deceive people, several of the brothers looked like they regretted meeting each other so late.
At this moment, an old man with white hair and beard came out from the huge platform above the school grounds.
"quiet!"
With a low shout, the voices of thousands of people on the campus were suppressed. Seeing this scene, everyone knew the identity of the old man, and they all closed their mouths and did not dare to say a word.
"Those who have my Tianyun Sect's tokens, please come to the stage now."
After everyone was quiet, the old man continued.
After his words fell, less than a hundred people out of the thousands of people on the campus started to move and walked towards the platform.
At this moment, the expressions of these people all looked proud and extremely proud.
Murong Yunlan and her maid were also among them. In addition to them, there was also the son of the Jizhou general.
"Brother, I'm going first!" Zhang Ji took out the token and said to Chen Chen.
Chen Chen gave him an encouraging look, patted his shoulder, and signaled him to go on stage with peace of mind.
Looking at Zhang Ji's back, Chen Chen felt a little sad.
If it weren't for his own appearance, this kid might be much more developed than he is now.
But this boy was extremely grateful to him and regarded him as his elder brother.
"That's all. When I become the leader, I'll assign you a deputy leader."
Chen Chen comforted himself.
…
After the old man on the platform took back the token, he looked at the school ground below again.
"Parents and elders who have cultivated themselves should come to power."
As soon as these words came out, nearly a hundred people came onto the stage.
The aptitude for cultivating immortals depends on heredity. Generally speaking, both parents have the aptitude for cultivating immortals, and nine out of ten children will have the aptitude for cultivating immortals.
In order to improve efficiency, it is understandable that the elders of Tianyun Sect put people on stage in this order.
Sure enough, after the hundreds of people came on stage, the old man carefully investigated, and in the end, less than fifty people left the stage sadly.
More than half of the people have the qualifications to cultivate immortality. This proportion is absolutely unimaginable among the people in the audience.
After checking this group of people, the old man on the stage was already losing interest.
Based on past experience, it's almost done here. If there are dozens of the remaining thousands of people who can cultivate immortality, they are considered lucky.
Thinking of this, he was ready to let the remaining people line up to go on stage step by step, but before he could say anything, he suddenly changed his mind on a whim,
"If you think you may have extraordinary talents, please come on stage."
Upon hearing his words, thousands of people present fell silent, and no one dared to move.
If this goes on stage and is denied by the elders, it will be a big loss. I am afraid that he will be famous throughout Jizhou. How will he have the dignity to go out to meet people in the future
Not only would I be embarrassed to see others, I'm afraid my parents would be embarrassed too...
Chen Chen didn't care at all. He squeezed through the crowd and wanted to go to the stage, but at this moment, a few brothers who had just been chatting very well suddenly pulled him back.
"Brother, if you are the only one on stage, if you don't have the qualifications to become an immortal, you will probably become the laughing stock of Jizhou!"
"No, brother, confidence is a good thing, but at least there must be a group of people on stage so that you can follow and hang out without being discovered!"
Seeing the concerned expressions on the faces of several brothers, Chen Chen said solemnly: "Don't worry, brothers, if I really don't have the qualifications to cultivate immortality and become the laughing stock of Jizhou, then I will let the world laugh. Cultivating immortality is what I want." It’s normal to go against the will and die on the road.”
After saying this, Chen Chen resolutely shook off the hands of several people and walked towards the stage.
The elder brothers looked at Chen Chen's slightly forlorn back with extremely complicated expressions.
"Although thousands of people have passed away, this brother is really a role model for our generation."
"Well, even if he really becomes the laughing stock of Jizhou, I still recognize him as a friend. Brother, what do you think?"
"What do you mean by this? Am I like the kind of villain who seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages?"
…
Under the watch of several people, Chen Chen gradually walked to the platform.
At this time, everyone in the school noticed him.
Feeling the countless eyes behind him, Chen Chen smiled calmly and stepped onto the platform.
"Is it him? That brat, I didn't expect him to arrive in Jizhou safely."
Behind the old man, Murong Yunlan's little maid looked surprised when she saw Chen Chen.
Murong Yunlan looked at Chen Chen who came on stage, and seemed to have thought of something, and his expression became very heavy.
"Xiao Huan, it turns out that he was right in not following us. Think of those who were slaughtered by the Demon Sect..."
At this point, Murong Yunlan couldn't speak anymore and choked up.
Xiao Huan showed a contemptuous smile and said: "Miss, don't blame yourself. You didn't force them to follow you. If they died, it was because of your lack of strength and lack of immortality.
And this kid, he didn’t follow you because he likes to do unique things. What’s wrong with that
Everyone is following you, but he doesn't follow you. Everyone doesn't go on stage, but he just gets on.
I have seen many people like this, and I think that doing this is a sign of character and attracting attention. In fact, it is ridiculous. "
…
"Big brother is my big brother. When will I be able to match this confidence and magnanimity!"
Compared to Murong Yunlan's reaction, Zhang Ji looked excited and wished he could cheer on the spot.
In addition to the people on the stage talking about it, the people in the audience were also talking about it.
"Who is this person? So arrogant!"
"If a genius like me doesn't dare to join, why should he?"
"Brother, since you are a genius, why don't you go up?"
"Just kidding, just kidding, don't take it seriously."
…
The old man on the stage had a look of amusement on his face when he saw someone actually coming on stage. However, the look of playfulness disappeared in an instant and was replaced by an unparalleled solemnity.
"Boy, who are you?!"
His question was so loud that the whole school fell silent for an instant. Everyone wanted to hear who this arrogant person was.
Facing his inquiry, Chen Chen gave a slight salute, and then introduced his identity in a calm voice.
"Chen Chen, Shitou Village, Shichuan County, Feiyun City, Jizhou."
