At this time, more and more people began to gather around. A large number of people not only rushed to the river bank, but also rushed to the bridge. If Ye Li followed the team slowly, he would obviously not be able to squeeze to the bridgehead.
With an idea in his mind, he immediately activated the Wind Ring. Amid the exclamations of the people around him, he turned into a gust of wind and disappeared on the spot, leaping past the crowd and running towards the tall bridge not far away.
Seeing that there were more and more people in front, everyone was scrambling to squeeze onto the bridge, leaving no space for Ye Li to pass through.
After looking around, Ye Li leaped onto the guardrail along the river bank, tapped his toes on the small stone pier at the handrail, and started running on the guardrail like a gust of wind.
He was very fast. Without the obstruction of the crowd, he rushed to the edge of the high bridge as fast as possible. Then he made a big jump and landed steadily on the guardrail beside the high bridge. He began to run towards the center of the bridge by stepping on the guardrail.
At this time, on the ship, a girl in white clothes as white as snow was sitting quietly on the platform on the top of the ship.
It seemed that a banquet was being held here. The girl was sitting at the main seat with a seven-stringed guqin next to her.
And this girl was none other than Dongfang Caiyi, who had met Ye Li twice before.
Dongfang Caiyi still looked as cold as snow, sitting quietly at the table, seemingly thinking about something.
She didn't touch the food and wine in front of her, and the voices of the people around her seemed not to fall into her ears. There was no unnecessary expression on her face from beginning to end.
Sitting on the main seat was an old man who looked like an immortal. He had white beard and eyebrows, but his face was as rosy as a baby's and his expression was quite peaceful and indifferent.
There were about ten people sitting in other seats around, both men and women, all in their twenties, very young.
Most of these people are young men, with very few women, and they all look like children from wealthy families.
There were some singers and dancers performing in the center of the platform, but the young men present were not paying attention to the singing and dancing at all. They all looked at the oriental-colored dress that looked like a winter plum next to the old man in the main seat.
The old man stroked his long beard and watched the performance for a while, then turned his head to look at the girl beside him, with a little kindness in his eyes, and said: "Xiao Caiyi, why are you unhappy today
Grandpa Qi asked the housekeeper for a cup of Holy Spring for you. You are now in the late stage of the Spiritual Pill Stage and will soon be able to break through to the Descending God Stage. Your cultivation speed is truly amazing."
Hearing the old man's question, Dongfang Caiyi's face showed a hint of warmth. She looked at the old man and said, "Grandpa Qi, I also want to participate in this city entrance test."
When the old man heard what Dongfang Caiyi said, he was stunned, and then he said: "Caiyi, what are you talking about? The Imperial City is your home, how can you have to go through a test to enter your own home
This trial is for outsiders, not for our little Caiyi."
Dongfang Caiyi was silent for a while, then said, "Grandpa Qi, my adoptive father has always given me the best cultivation resources. Almost from the very beginning of my cultivation, I have obtained precious things that others can hardly imagine.
My practice is almost entirely carried out with the immersion of natural resources and treasures. The only reason I can practice faster than others is because I consume more resources.
But now I hope I can take part in a trial to truly test my own strength, because I feel that my strength is not as strong as it seems. "
Hearing Dongfang Caiyi's words, the old man was a little surprised and said, "Little Caiyi, why do you have such an idea
Although you didn't grow up in killing and fighting like Tianyao, you are not completely without practical experience. We have specially sent people to practice actual combat with you. How could your combat ability be inconsistent with your appearance
I dare say that in the whole martial arts world, there are people whose realm is equal to yours but whose combat power is stronger than yours. However, they are definitely rare and can only appear in our holy land.
After all, everyone is a descendant of a holy land, and some people have been tempered between life and death, so naturally their strength will be slightly stronger. "
Hearing the old man's words, Dongfang Caiyi's expression did not change much, she just shook her head slightly and said: "No, there are still people who are stronger than me, even stronger than other people of the same level in the Holy Land.
No matter what, I want to participate in this city entrance trial. I want to see if I can make it into the top four.
If I can't even make it into the top four in this trial, what qualifications do I have to affirm my own strength?"
After Dongfang Caiyi finished speaking, her eyes couldn't help but look into the distance, wondering what she was thinking about.
When the old man heard her words, he looked a little confused. He really couldn't think of anyone other than the disciples of the Holy Land who could be stronger than Dongfang Caiyi, and stronger than all the talisman masters of the same level.
However, he watched Dongfang Caiyi grow up and knew her temper well. Since she said so firmly that she wanted to participate in the trial to enter the city, he would definitely find a way to participate.
Even if I could stop her, I couldn't stop her from replacing this trial with other means.
Even though this trial is full of dangers, it is still under their control. Even if Dongfang Caiyi participates in it, they have a way to get her out safely.
But if Dongfang Caiyi went to fight somewhere else, they would not be sure to protect her, which would make it more likely for her to get into trouble.
Thinking of this, the old man finally sighed helplessly and said, "Okay, Xiao Caiyi, you can participate in this trial.
But there is one thing, you must not try to be strong during the trial. If you can't hold on, you must give up. I don't want Tianyao to come out of seclusion and find out something happened to you, and then go crazy with me."
After hearing the old man's words, Dongfang Caiyi finally showed a hint of joy on her face, and it was as if a spring breeze had blown overnight and all the flowers had bloomed.
At this time, Ye Li finally stepped on the guardrail on the side of the bridge and reached the center of the bridge.
He stood on the edge of the bridge and looked towards the building ship not far below. Everything on the rooftop platform was in his sight.
Before he could take a closer look at the talented men, Dongfang Caiyi's figure appeared deep in his eyes.
The girl, who was like a white plum blossom in the snow, made Ye Li feel warm in his heart and he sniffed unconsciously, as if he smelled the faint fragrance from her when they danced closely on the lava.
"It's her, why is she here
By the way, she was with the Feng family and the people from Prajna Mountain, so it seems that she should be from the Imperial City."
Ye Li suddenly figured out the other party's identity and couldn't help but look at the other party a few more times. The snow-white figure made him not want to look away.
At this moment, a burly figure suddenly appeared on the top of a pleasure boat next to the Imperial City ship and shouted towards the ship.
