In the center of the Forbidden Spirit Hall of the Martial Mansion, there are hundreds of steps connecting heaven and earth, and each step is as high as two people. Standing at the bottom of the steps and looking at the past from the bottom up, it towers into the clouds and surpasses the five peaks, as if the steps are real. It can lead to the sky, which is why it got the name of this ladder.
In normal times, this step is just a little higher than ordinary steps, but today it is quite different. Just looking at the pictures of the formations painted everywhere on the ground, as well as the scene where the three elders of Wufu and the seven masters of Tiandu City sit in it, one knows that this ladder is blessed by formations, and it is by no means easy to climb up.
After Elder Lin finished testing everyone's bone age, he returned to the Martial Mansion. He and the other nine martial artists exchanged glances, cleared his throat and began to speak.
"Everyone, please be quiet and listen carefully. The Ladder Conference is divided into two stages. The first stage is a hundred people competing to climb the ladder. After an hour, we will select the ten people who climbed to the highest place to enter the top ten. The second stage In the afternoon, we will compete with the Liu family, the previous champions, and we will discuss the rules of the second stage at that time. Everyone, do you have any questions?"
Shi Chen raised his hand and asked: "Mr. Lin, hundreds of people are competing to climb this ladder, and there will inevitably be physical friction. If they accidentally fall down, I'm afraid... it will hurt a lot."
When he said this, the tense scene quickly eased, and everyone around him suppressed their smiles.
Shi Chen is timid by nature, so the last time he took on the task of Wufu, he also chose to do it with a level lower than himself. At this time, in the ladder meeting, the first consideration is his own safety, not the honor of the family. But this can't be blamed on him, he was the only one from the Shi family who came to watch, if his brothers and sisters were not over twenty-five, the elders in the family would not push him into the limelight like a duck on the shelves.
Lin Lao smiled: "You can rest assured that if you are pushed down, the people from our Martial House and the masters from Tiandao City will use their true energy to secure you and keep your life safe."
Shi Chen looked happy: "That's good!"
Elder Lin's expression froze suddenly, and he said coldly: "However, I would like to tell all the gentlemen and ladies here that it is inevitable that there will be pushing and pushing when climbing the ladder, but among them, if anyone intentionally attacks others, he will definitely be punished." Severe punishment! Within ten years, this family will no longer be able to participate in the Ladder Conference!"
This sentence was said with a very strong momentum, everyone deeply remembered it in their hearts, and the whole scene became extremely quiet again.
Ye Xueyi said with some doubts: "Mr. Lin, I also have a question. If after an hour, many people are on the same ladder, how should the top ten be decided?" Although she had participated in the ladder five years ago General Assembly, but the rules at that time were completely different from now, so she is also at a loss now.
Mr. Lin's eyes lit up, he laughed and said, "Okay, that's a good question. However, you don't have to worry about this problem. Once the masters we invited from Tiandu City encounter such a situation, they will impose force on you. With a certain amount of pressure, there will always be people who can't stand it and fall off the ladder. Is there any problem?"
Everyone stared at each other for a while, but no one asked any questions.
"No more, Mr. Lin."
Elder Lin glanced at the crowd, then turned to look at the other masters and elders of the Wufu, after getting their approval.
"Then I announce that this year's Family Ladder Conference has officially begun!"
At the same time, the Great Hall of Martial Mansion erupted into applause. This is a grand event held every five years. Leizhou City is a highly anticipated event. The excitement of some seniors in the audience is actually not weaker than that of the juniors competing on the field. .
However, at this exciting time, some people have already taken action.
"Quick, speed!" Ye Zifeng almost choked Lin Lao's voice and at the same time, pulled Ye Xueyi up and rushed towards the sky ladder.
Its speed was so fast that everyone present couldn't help being stunned.
Ye Huichi was taken aback for a moment: "Isn't there an hour, why don't you sprint in such a hurry?"
Xiao Mu also seemed to be eyeing this opportunity, and immediately ordered many brothers around him: "Go, don't let the people of the Ye family run away!"
"But Young Master Xiao, according to the rules, isn't it forbidden to attack others?"
There was a trace of coldness in Xiao Mu's eyes: "Who wants you to attack Ye Zifeng and the others? Just now, Mr. Lin said that there will inevitably be some pushing when climbing the ladder. You just need to surround the people of the Ye family and don't let them go up. , don't attack!"
The rules only say what can't be done, but they don't say what can be done. Those who are good at using the rules know how to grasp this degree. Although Xiao Shao is arrogant and domineering, he is not a brainless person like Wang Lin. After suffering a few times before, he naturally knows how to learn a lesson.
But the problem is, Ye Zifeng saw through his wishful thinking from the very beginning!
Ye Zifeng didn't care about the situation behind him at all, he rushed up the ladder without distraction, at this moment, he only had one thought in his mind.
Must be fast! You must not be caught up by Xiao Mu and others!
"Damn it, Ye Zifeng is clever, he just ran away!" Xiao Mu gritted his teeth fiercely, he couldn't catch up after him, and he was furious.
"Young Master Xiao, what shall we do?"
"What else can I do, if I can't catch up, I have to catch up! With Ye Zifeng's realm, walking the ladder of twenty steps in an hour is already the limit! Sooner or later we will catch up!"
Xiao Mu suddenly remembered something again: "By the way, stop that Ye Huichi, and don't let anyone in the Ye family go!"
Ye Huichi fell behind, and was shocked when he heard the words: "What's none of my business?!"
…
"Brother, since they are here, let's start here too." Elder Lin said, looking at an old man in white robe.
"Alright." The white-robed old man nodded, and with a backhand wave, a palm print from Yaoyao had already pressed the eye of the magic circle.
Elder Lin and the other ten warrior masters looked at each other, and stood in their respective seats, and began to inject their own spiritual power into the magic circle connecting heaven and earth.
Almost at the moment when the warriors injected their spiritual power, the originally seemingly ordinary stone steps began to emit a faint luster, which was particularly bright on this cloudy morning, as if along this road, it was really possible to pass. To heaven.
Seeing the steps overflowing with aura, the children of the hundred aristocratic families were slightly surprised, and at the same time, their expressions became more and more serious. The Heavenly Ladder is a test for them, but it is also an opportunity to practice. The Heavenly Ladder Formation co-hosted by ten master warriors is not accessible to ordinary people. For them, it can be regarded as a once-in-five-year opportunity!
Ye Zifeng is not the first person to ascend the ladder, because when it comes to sprinting speed, someone is faster than him.
"Hehe, Ye Zifeng, the waste wood, still wants to run ahead of me, don't be delusional!" The person who spoke was the second young master of the Rong family, who was at the sixth level of Qi refining.
Ye Zifeng chuckled and said: "You are so powerful, then you have the ability to climb the first step of this ladder in advance!"
"You don't need to tell me, I will do the same!"
The second young master of the Rong family laughed loudly. He was very close to the ladder at that time, so he jumped in an extremely chic way, drawing a beautiful curve in the air, and landed on the first step of the ladder.
However, as soon as he stepped on the first step, he felt a strange feeling, as if an invisible force was coming from all directions to crush him, but he couldn't see it and couldn't touch it. He has always been used to living a life like a golden spoon. He has never encountered such a horrible scene. He was flustered and didn't know how to deal with it.
"Idiot, you dare to be the first to jump into the ladder without any mental preparation."
Although the level of realm has a certain impact on climbing the ladder, it is not absolute. It is also related to each person's state of mind, perseverance, and even emotional fluctuations. The second young master of the Rong family regarded climbing the ladder as a game, and as he was not mentally prepared, he naturally couldn't get any advantage.
Ye Zifeng sneered, looked back at Ye Xueyi and said: "Sister, after entering this ladder, don't think about anything, don't be afraid, just think about rushing up."
Ye Xueyi nodded deeply: "Brother Zifeng, I understand."
Ye Zifeng took a breath, his eyes gradually became colder, and after his body was covered with a thin layer of essence, he boldly jumped up the first step of the ladder.
"If you just enter this area, it seems that you won't be affected by this magic circle." Ye Zifeng was still in the air, and a plan suddenly appeared in his heart.
He slapped the ground, and with the force of the recoil, he jumped in the direction of the second young master of the Rong family.
"Ye Zifeng, you... why did you fly here?" The second young master of the Rong family wanted to move away in shock, but this magic circle naturally has a confinement effect. If you don't adjust your mood and prepare mentally, even I can't take a step.
Ye Zifeng smiled lightly, jumped onto the shoulder of the second young master of the Rong family, and stomped down hard. After getting the force point on his foot, with this force, he easily jumped up to the second step. As for the turbulent tide of aura coming from all around, it was offset by the pre-covered essence around him.
At this time, not only the disciples of the aristocratic families who were present were stunned, but even the masters of the Tiandao City warriors who maintained the magic circle were shocked at this time. It is one step at a time. I have never seen anyone stepping on another person's body to jump directly to the second step.
"No reason, using you as a stepping stone, just to climb the ladder, can't be considered a deliberate attack, so it can't be considered a violation." Ye Zifeng turned back with a smile.
Xiao Mu came back to his senses and shouted: "Master, how can this not be considered a violation! Ye Zifeng must be punished severely! Otherwise, the order of the ladder will not be guaranteed!"
It was the first time the ten masters encountered this matter, and they had no experience. After a while of communication, Elder Lin still said: "As Ye Zifeng said, this kind of behavior is intended to climb the ladder, and it cannot be considered a foul. The ladder meeting will continue!"
"Thank you master!" Ye Zifeng smiled and cupped his hands.
Mr. Lin gave him a slight look: "However, this kind of thing will damage the harmony between the family after all, so it's no exception!"
