Of course, the person in charge of the Yang family is Yang Lan'er, and the others just enjoy it.

Coupled with the supplies from the City Lord's Mansion and the goodwill shown by other families, this journey became more like a picnic, albeit a little longer.

The journey along the official road was smooth.

At least there was no bloody robbery.

On the third day after departure, Yang Lan'er took the carriage prepared by the Yang family and went to practice. She only participated in the daily public activities with everyone.

However, the training methods of warriors and those in the Qi Refining Stage are different.

Warriors rely more on practical fighting.

So, except for Ye Tianqi and Hong Ran, everyone else spontaneously went hunting nearby every day. While improving themselves, they also competed to see who would win.

After all, the knockout rounds of the competition are largely random, and those who rank low may not necessarily be weak.

Hong Ran had a breakthrough before setting out, so naturally he had a method for practicing.

Ye Tianqi gave Yang Lan'er what he got in the City Lord's Mansion, plus a thousand-year-old heart grass.

It has to be said that Yang Lan'er could not refuse this bargaining chip. She had been coveting the Millennium Heart Grass because it could be effective for Yin Zimo's condition and might even be used in the final treatment. So, she used a fire-attributed skill to exchange it with Ye Tianqi.

There have always been relatively few gold-attributed exercises. There are some in Yang Lan'er's space, but they are too advanced and the starting point is also from the foundation building. For Ye Tianqi, they are not suitable at all.

Therefore, Ye Tianqi practiced in the carriage every day and had no interest in the hunting game with a few people.

Ye Tianqi learned about the world beyond warriors from Yang Lan'er and Hong Ran. His original confusion about the path of cultivation became clearer, and he also paid more attention to the results of the duel.

At the same time, Yang Lan'er also confirmed from Hong Ran that as long as one goes to the empire, there is a chance that one will be noticed by the sect. It doesn't have to be the one with a high ranking, but the top three will definitely have a place to go to the sect. It depends on whether one is willing or not.

In the past, there were people who were unwilling to join a sect and only wanted to stay in the world of ordinary people and enjoy the kind of life that would make them reach the top.

At the same time, the sect does not necessarily have to be the Shenxue Sect. Other weaker sects or small sects may also appear and absorb some qualified people.

The Hong family wanted to re-enter the world of cultivation through this path.

This is similar to Yang Lan'er's idea, but everyone's goals are different.

As for Hong Ran choosing Lezhou, it was because he wanted to enter from a place with a lower ranking, which would be more convenient.

Then, at this moment, Hong Ran regretted a little. Why did he choose Lezhou so carelessly? How could so many monsters appear at once? "The journey was smooth this time. After arriving in the capital, you will have at least 20 days of rest time." When approaching the capital, the Lord of Lezhou gathered everyone and said, "However, I got some not-so-good news yesterday, that is, there will be some changes in this capital battle."

This made everyone look at him sideways. What was the royal family trying to do? In fact, the empire would not care who was chosen to go to the empire. Other regions could choose if they were willing to do so. If they were not willing, they could directly appoint someone, as long as they could convince the public.

However, most countries will also make careful selections for the sake of results. As for what to compete in, it is entirely up to them to decide.

In fact, the final ranking of contestants from each country in the competition also determines the ownership of many resources. As long as they can move forward, no one wants to be at the bottom.

The Lord of Lezhou sighed, "This year, not only Lezhou, but also other places in the dynasty, and even the capital, have seen many geniuses. The overall strength is much higher than in previous years. I guess the dynasty has also come up with an idea to select real masters to go to the empire and win more resources back. Therefore, the rules of this competition have been changed. On the basis of individual competition, group points have been added."

"A team is a group, which will affect individual performance in the end, so I hope you can work more together."

Yang Lan'er rubbed her forehead. The thing she was most worried about had happened. It was obvious that she had not arrived at a good time.

In fact, the so-called emergence of geniuses and gatherings of heroes also follows certain rules. Over the years, there will always be a group of geniuses.

Perhaps, such a talent would have been ranked first at other times, but in this year when so many geniuses gathered, I don’t know what the situation will be.

However, this kind of passion is also what the monsters like most. Fighting against the strong enemy is the joy of life.

Moreover, such a year will always be talked about and remembered for a long time. In comparison, it is more famous than a mediocre first place.

However, Yang Lan'er was sad. She did not pursue fame or fortune, nor was she eager to find an opponent for herself. She just wanted to go to the empire peacefully and then enter the Shenxue Sect smoothly.

Now it seems that God doesn't want her to have such a smooth life.

"Team?" Hong Ran was also a little sad. Why were there so many geniuses this year? "The team score does not determine the individual results, but it will have a certain impact. I think the royal family should want to see everyone's sense of collective honor." The Lord of Lezhou City pondered: "I heard that this is the competition rule of the empire this year, and the dynasty deliberately adopted it."

Yang Lan'er sighed inwardly. Fortunately, everyone in the team has made a lot of progress in the past three months, so at least they can give it a try.

With Yang Lan'er's accidental guidance, Zheng Qi broke through to the innate stage. However, he had no spiritual roots, so it would be difficult for him to break through to the Qi Refining stage in this lifetime.

On the way, Yang Lan'er simply cured Zheng Qi's hidden illness and restored him to his best condition. Now it seems that this unintentional act was a blessing.

The others have also made great progress. The few who were originally innate have basically reached the peak of the innate level. However, because some of them do not have spiritual roots, it is very difficult to break through to this level.

On the contrary, Zhu Shasha has a good talent and has reached the critical point. She is expected to break through at any time.

Even though Zhu Shasha has three spiritual roots and seems not as good as Ye Tianqi and Hong Ran, her talent for comprehension is really good. Therefore, when she goes hunting with everyone and participates in actual combat, her strength increases rapidly.

Most importantly, Zhu Shasha herself is very hardworking.

Tong Fei, the baby-faced man, had already entered the innate realm. Probably inspired by Zhu Shasha, he practiced qigong very hard.

Of course, the one who caught Yang Lan'er's attention the most was Zhu Shasha. She was very suspicious whether this girl had saved the universe in her previous life. There was a thick golden light of merit all over her body. If not, with her aptitude of three spiritual roots, she should not have broken through so quickly.

You know, Zhu Shasha is only fourteen years old this year, which means she is even more enchanting than Ye Tianqi and Hong Ran.
