"Brother Tang! Brother Tang..." The call from outside the courtyard woke up Tang Huan, who was not distracted. He listened intently, and it was Lei Jiayuan's voice.
"But Brother Lei? Come in quickly."
It was early morning outside the window. Tang Huan looked at it doubtfully, and then his eyes fell on the last Taoist stone in his palm. These days, Tang Huan carefully inspected more than 5,000 stones and iron crystals, and even if they were of the same type, he did not miss any one.
After a while, Lei Jiayuan's figure appeared at the door.
"Brother Tang, why are you still here? The Tianque election is about to begin." Looking at Tang Huan, who was sitting on the ground calmly, Lei Jiayuan said anxiously.
"Tianque general election?"
Tang Huan raised his eyes suspiciously, "Just today?"
Of course he knew about the Tianque election. There was a relevant description in the disciple manual he received. Every time a new disciple joins Huanglong Tianfu, a Tianque general election will be held. Tianque naturally refers to the Heavenly Palace of the inner palace's weapon spirit. The so-called general election refers to the selection of weapon refiners.
During the general election, all weapon refiners among the disciples of Emperor Dragon Tianfu can sign up to participate, not just the new Black Dragon disciples. Weapon refiners among Qinglong disciples and Golden Dragon disciples can also sign up. Of course, there are also restrictions, that is, they must at least be holy-level heavenly craftsmen.
If you can pass the selection, you can enter the inner palace.
A weapon refiner who has been promoted to a low-grade Tiangong can have an independent mansion at the "Tiangong Heavenly Palace", and a holy-level Tiangong can enter the Tiangong's mansion to become an attendant and assistant. Even if one of Tiangong's attendants enters the inner palace, it is a great good thing.
After all, being in the inner palace means a better cultivation environment and more abundant cultivation resources.
Therefore, every time the general election of Tianque is held, the weapon refiner disciples of Huanglong Tianfu flock to it. As long as they are outside, they will sign up. Those who are practicing outside will also rush back during this time and try to minimize going out, etc. The day of Tianque election is coming.
"That's right, you don't know yet?" Seeing Tang Huan's expression, Lei Jiayuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"I haven't left here for many days, how could I know?" Tang Huan said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter if you didn't know before. It's okay now that you know. Brother Tang, hurry up and set off. It's about to start. You still have time to sign up if you rush over." Lei Jiayuan said hurriedly.
"Not interested in!"
Tang Huan shook his head.
He really had no interest in the general election that day because he was no longer a genius. In the general election, the weapon refiners selected were all going to serve as servants of Heavenly Craftsmen in the inner palace, so those who participated were all Saint-level Heavenly Craftsmen. Real Tiangongs will basically not sign up, because Tiangongs can be allowed to enter the Inner Palace Qi Ling Heavenly Palace at any time as long as they show corresponding attainments in the Qi Dao, and there is no need to participate in the general election.
"Not interested in?"
Lei Jiayuan was dumbfounded.
Other saint-level heavenly craftsmen are eagerly waiting for this day to arrive. For Tianfu disciples, no matter what identity they enter the inner palace, it is similar to a carp leaping over the dragon gate. It is not only a great honor , it will also be of great help to your future improvement.
For this reason, in each Tianque election, the number of weapon refiners selected is not large, but even so, there are still a surprising number of people who sign up. If those weapon refiners knew that Tang Huan had such an attitude towards the Tianque election, they would probably be able to drown him in spittle.
"Yes, not interested."
Tang Huan nodded and said, "Thank you Brother Lei for coming here to inform me." Everyone signed up to participate in the Tianque election voluntarily, so he would not join in the fun.
Lei Jiayuan was speechless: "Brother Tang, I'm afraid you have to go to this Tianque election. The announcement issued by Qi Ling Tianque clearly stated that in this Tianque election, all the weapon refiner disciples in Huanglong Tianfu will Participation is required. Even if you are not a Saint-level Heavenly Craftsman, you must register, and violators will be severely punished."
"Oh? Is there such a rule?"
Tang Huan was a little surprised, but after thinking for a moment, he frowned and said, "In that case, let's go over and have a look." He didn't take the so-called severe punishment to heart. It was not a major matter, and he could be expelled. Is the sect failing? However, it was Sun Kui who brought him into Huanglong Tianfu in the first place. If he blatantly disobeyed orders and was punished not long after he arrived, Sun Kui would be disgraced if word spread.
"Let's go, let's go there quickly."
“…”
The Tianque election was held at the "Mingjing Terrace" in the west of Waifu. It is said that it was named after Ye Mingjing, the founder of the Huanglong Tianfu sect.
Since its completion, Mingjing Terrace has become a place for Huanglong Tianfu to hold various grand events.
In the depression between several towering peaks in the west, a huge square platform stands quietly. Around the square platform, circular stairs follow the terrain, enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people. The condition of the Mingjing Terrace is similar to that of the gymnasium in Tang Huan's previous life.
When Tang Huan and Lei Jiayuan arrived, the stairs around the square platform were already full of people, and the number of monks gathered may have exceeded 100,000.
This number seems to be a lot, but it is inconspicuous in the entire Huanglong Tianfu. After all, the Tianque election only targets the weapon refiners among the disciples. This is equivalent to excluding most of the Tianfu disciples who came to watch the election. The number of people is naturally not that large.
Lei Jiayuan was already quite familiar with this area. Under his guidance, he followed the path between the stairs to the bottom, and then arrived at the east side of Fangtai.
There was a small isolated area where thousands of people stood.
Although the dragon tablets around their waists have different colors and the strength of their auras are different, they are all obviously weapon refiners among Tianfu disciples.
Next to that area, there is a long table, with several figures standing behind the table. There are only a few people still queuing in front of the table. They should be signing up, but they have obviously entered the final stage. If Tang Huan arrives later, this registration will probably be over.
After sending Tang Huan here, Lei Jiayuan said goodbye and left, while Tang Huan stepped forward and stood at the end of the queue.
Registration is very simple. After checking the dragon tablet, you will get a wooden tablet with your name and number engraved on it. This wooden tablet is the certificate to participate in the general election.
Only a moment later, Tang Huan was standing with the group of weapon refiner disciples. Among the crowd, mutterings were heard one after another, and many people were secretly or openly checking the status of the monks around them. To everyone here, the weapon refiner next to him is his opponent in the Tianque election.
"Tum—"
Time flew by, and several more weapon refiners joined in. About half a quarter of an hour later, a high-pitched and loud bell suddenly echoed in the area.
On the surrounding stairs, the noisy sounds suddenly disappeared, and there was silence between heaven and earth.
The long table used for registration was removed, and then, a voice like a bell suddenly broke the silence of the space: "All disciples of the weapon refiners, please come to the Mingjing Platform -" (To be continued)
