The location for the Datongshan event was chosen in advance.

There is a piece of flat land on Dadong Mountain, about the size of four or five grasslands.

There is a rostrum on top with six main seats.

In addition, there are some chairs in the auditorium, about fifty or sixty in total.

Obviously, these chairs are prepared for people with particularly high status, and ordinary warriors do not have this treatment.

Then came the arena, which was very big, even bigger than the playground.

If a warrior wants to exert his full strength, it is impossible to do so without this space.

The other spectators could only stand around the ring and watch the fight.

Fan Sizhe's arrangement was very appropriate.

Although limited by the conditions, the overall feeling of the arena is still a bit simple.

But Fan Bin was already very satisfied.

Four or five playgrounds, plus the surrounding hillsides, can accommodate tens of thousands of people...

"Brother, there's not enough space!"

Just when Fan Bin and the others arrived at the ring, Fan Sizhe hurried over.

"How can it not be enough?"

Without waiting for Fan Bin to speak, Fan Xian asked curiously.

Even from his perspective, the scale of this venue was already very spectacular.

"I didn't expect so many people to come! And they are not only warriors, but also many followers."

This is exactly what Fan Sizhe had neglected before.

He thought about those warriors who were powerful and of high status, and their identities were extraordinary.

In this case, they have to bring followers and guards.

Fan Sizhe included all these people in the count.

From Fan Sizhe's point of view, he obviously thought that in such a solemn occasion, no one would be willing to be the first to stand out?

Even Emperor Qing only brought a few people with him.

If anyone dares to bring hundreds or thousands of followers with him at this time, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?
It's impossible that your status is more noble than the emperor of Daqing?

In fact, Fan Sizhe’s idea was not wrong.

Whether it was Daqing or Northern Qi, their famous nobles were all very low-key.

As a result, they either came alone or brought only one or two followers...

But the world is not full of knowledgeable nobles. There are also many local rich people who know nothing.

Being highly skilled in martial arts does not mean being knowledgeable, nor does it mean having intelligence and experience.

Many warriors with good strength bought land after making money and became local gentry and landlords.

They don't understand what it means to make money in business, they just think that land is the foundation and there is nothing wrong with buying land.

These people are far away from the emperor, so how could they know that nobles also need to restrain themselves?
When they arrived, there were quite a few maids and servants around them. There were also the dignitaries of small countries, who also lacked this kind of overall perspective.

So much so that by this time, the number of people wandering outside Mount Dadong was at least tens of thousands, or perhaps even hundreds of thousands.

Fan Sizhe made a lot of money, but his venue was too small and so many people couldn't get in.

"Then don't let them in."

Fan Bin spoke decisively.

"what?"

Fan Sizhe was dumbfounded.

How does he tell those people?
"Don't worry about it, let Mr. Wang do it!"

"Which Mr. Wang?"

When Fan Xian heard the words "Mr. Wang", he felt like he was someone he knew, but he couldn't remember who it was for a moment.

"Of course it's Wang Qinian, Mr. Wang."

After hearing Fan Bin's introduction, Fan Xian felt like his eyes were about to pop out of his head.

"Lao Wang, didn't I pay him his salary? Why didn't he tell me?"

As long as Wang Qinian said hello, Fan Xian would not be able to stop him no matter what.

"Oh, Master Fan, you misunderstood. This is just a small part-time job."

Wang Qinian hurried forward to explain.

When Fan Bin asked him for help, Wang Qinian secretly agreed.

It feels so good to earn extra money during working hours...

Wang Qinian originally planned to do it quietly without alerting anyone, but he didn't expect the two Lords Fan to get together, which directly ruined his plan.

"You are betraying your own people!"

Fan Xian stared at Wang Qinian, with no intention of letting him go.

"How can you say that, sir? I didn't want to agree to it at first, but Master Fan offered too much."

Fan Bin didn't care about money in the first place, and after becoming a grandmaster, he had even less idea about money.

Although Fan Bin is not a spendthrift, he is willing to pay the price for anything he thinks is appropriate.

And the price he paid is often unimaginable for ordinary people.

Take this time for example, Wang Qinian didn't even think of struggling.

Although after working with Fan Xian, Wang Qinian's income has increased steadily.

Even Wang Qinian's vision has changed. He doesn't care about small amounts of money.

But what Fan Bin gave was real gold ingots.

You may not care about other things, but if you don’t even care about gold ingots, are you still a human being?
"Then go quickly, I'll deal with you when you come back."

Fan Xian laughed.

"I obey my orders."

Wang Qinian did not leave immediately after he finished speaking, but bowed to Fan Bin and said, "When the time comes, I will ask Master Fan to help persuade him a little..."

Although Fan Bin paid a high salary, he asked Wang Qinian to do very few things, so it was an extra income.

Extra money is good, but it is not as good as a regular salary.

Fan Xian gave him money every month, and also bonuses. Because the food and benefits were so good, Wang Qinian even gained a lot of weight...

"Mr. Wang, don't worry!"

With Fan Bin's assurance, Wang Qinian felt a lot more relaxed.

He turned around and flew into the air. He didn't even need to step on the ground, just a touch of his toes on the grass and he would float far away.

"Old Wang's Qinggong has become even stronger!"

Fan Xian was inspired.

Fan Xian had been interested in Wang Qinian's Qinggong for a long time. After learning the training method from Fan Bin, he practiced it for a long time in combination with the Riding the Wind and Breaking the Waves Technique.

To be honest, Fan Xian feels that he has made great progress!

But compared with Wang Qinian in front of him, Fan Xian still felt that he was far behind him.

You have to know that Fan Xian's martial arts is two levels higher than Wang Qinian's. "Mr. Wang not only has a unique way of practicing Qinggong, he is also extremely talented."

Fan Bin nodded.

This thing called cultivation talent was just so unfair.

Compared to Fan Xian, Fan Bin is much better in Qinggong.

In addition, Fan Bin once studied Qinggong.

It is no exaggeration to say that Fan Bin's current attainments in Qinggong are absolutely unprecedented.

Even in the future, it will be difficult for anyone to surpass.

But even so, if Fan Bin's skill level is the same as Wang Qinian's at this moment, Fan Bin cannot guarantee that he can be stronger than Wang Qinian in the art of lightness.

He's probably a little worse.

Wang Qinian ran all the way and soon covered several miles.

A large group of people have already arrived here. Looking around, the mountainside is densely packed with people.

The Tiger Guards, Imperial Guards of Qing Kingdom, and the guards hired by the Fan family formed a temporary command team.

Although there were many powerful warriors in the group, they did not dare to cause trouble.

The Tiger Guards and the Imperial Guards are not there to eat for nothing.

There are quite a few eighth-rank strong men inside. If anyone dares to explode at this time, they definitely won't mind killing the chicken to scare the monkey.

"Hello everyone, my name is Wang Qinian. I have been asked by Dean Fan to give a small assessment to all the warriors who come to participate in the event."

Ok?
When Wang Qinian said this, there was an immediate commotion among the crowd.

"Why?"

"I came all the way here, why don't you let me pass?"

"My baby is only eight years old this year and is extremely talented. If you stop him from passing through, wouldn't that delay my baby's chance..."

……

No matter how nice Wang Qinian's words sounded, he could not shake the determination of these people.

No matter if they are warriors or people who come to join in the fun.

Since they were already here, they had to meet those grand masters no matter what.

According to word of mouth among the people, the existence of several great masters are all gods.

It would be fine if they didn't have a chance, but after all the hardship and effort, they finally got here.
Let them give up?
There is no door at all.

"The Dharma should not be passed on lightly. For warriors who are not strong enough, the teachings of the Grand Master will not only be of no benefit to them, but may also lead them astray and even lead them to insanity. This is not what I said, but what our Grand Master Fan said in person. If you really want to die, I can't stop you! But you must think about the consequences..."

Hearing this, which was said by Daqing God of War Fan Bin, the crowd immediately became much quieter.

Although the vast majority of people who came here still refused to give up, some people began to think about quitting.

Especially for the maids and servants who came with the master, they thought that the few taels of silver they earned every month were not worth risking their lives for.

Seeing this situation, Wang Qinian struck while the iron was hot.

"I am not afraid to tell you that this test is not in vain. Every test has a result. Whoever can stand out in this test will naturally be in the eyes of our Grandmaster Fan. I know that some people here are not here for admission. But there are also some who want to study in Tongtian Academy. If you come out on top and become Grandmaster Fan's personal disciple..."

Wang Qinian said this and said, "I envy you guys! I am just too old to have this opportunity. Otherwise..."

Before the remaining words "through fire and water" were uttered, someone in the crowd had already responded.

"Mr. Wang, you don't have to say anything. I'm willing to participate!"

"I!"

"It's also considered me."

Since I mentioned the assessment before but didn’t mention any benefits, naturally no one responded.

Now that Wang Qinian has mentioned the benefits, how can those who think they are quite capable still resist?
One by one, they all responded positively.

"well!!!"

Wang Qinian said "good" twice in succession, and then continued: "All those who participate in the assessment will not be asked about their names or backgrounds before they participate. Only those who enter the top 100 can leave their names. The assessment consists of three items, which are strength, ability, and perseverance."

After hearing what Wang Qinian said, someone immediately asked, "Mr. Wang, what is strength? What is ability? What is perseverance?"

"This warrior asked a good question, so I will explain it to you. What is strength? Some people do not need to go through the assessment, as long as they are strong enough, they can participate directly. The skill level is above the eighth rank! No matter who it is, as long as the skill level reaches the eighth rank, ninth rank, ninth rank, and ninth rank peak. You can participate directly! Do you see those small chairs? Sorry, it's a little far away, but it doesn't matter. The strong above the ninth rank can definitely see them. Anyone above the ninth rank can sit on the chairs. In addition, there are some distinguished guests, such as the civil and military ministers above the third rank of Daqing and Beiqi, or the princes of other small countries, who can also sit down."

There aren't many people like this, but they should still be respected.

After Wang Qinian finished explaining the rules, no one raised any objections.

Obviously everyone has already agreed with what Wang Qinian said.

"Please those who are qualified, please move over there and wait. Our Master Fan Sizhe has prepared fruit tea for you distinguished guests..."

"All the guards and servants who came with you are not allowed to enter."

This group of powerful and influential people went in first.

The benefits are obvious.

Through this small operation, Wang Qinian's prestige was established.

Even if some people were originally dissatisfied, they would not dare to break the rule at this time.

Before, they broke this rule and offended only the Fan family. Although the Fan family was not easy to mess with, Fan Bin was high up and would not necessarily bother with them.

That's why so many people dare to take the risk to resist.

However, once these powerful figures, whose strength exceeds that of the eighth-grade strong men, pass by.

The situation is different.

Anyone left who wants to go in without undergoing an assessment will immediately be met with hostility from those who went in before.

As a grandmaster, Fan Bin might not bother with them.

But there are all kinds of people among them.

If they really disliked me, they probably wouldn't even know how I died.

With the first wave of people successfully selected, the remaining two tests became easier.

"In that direction, there is a cliff with a narrow canyon in the middle. The canyon is about five meters long with three ropes in the middle. You can get a spot by following the ropes or using any other method as long as you can successfully pass through the canyon."

The canyon is not deep, only about thirty or forty feet.

But if you fall from this height, you will definitely be smashed into a pulp.

If you want to pass through, the best way is of course to jump over it using Qinggong.

If you can't jump over, you can also climb over along the rope.

But there are often strong winds above the canyon.

There is still a lot of risk in trying to pass through the rope.

"Isn't this embarrassing? I won't take the risk. Besides, why won't you let me pass?"

A strong man estimated his own weight. If he climbed along the rope, he would probably break it.

The sturdy man immediately started to act like a rogue.

"This is not only a test of ability, but also of courage. If a warrior wants to break free from his own constraints, how can he do it without sufficient courage and strong willpower? Grandmaster Fan said that if you lack these two qualities, he will not accept you no matter how talented you are."
