Chapter 89: The Dharma Assembly Begins
Zhu Lin let out a light breath, and he just sat in front of the table in a daze.
Qing'er, Zhao Qian, Ruan Yu...The more Zhu Lin thinks, the more he becomes more and more tragic.
"Young Master Zhu."
Zhu Lin only felt that his shoulder was being patted. He turned his head and it turned out to be Lin'er. Zhu Lin looked out the house. It was already bright at this time. Unexpectedly, Zhu Lin fell asleep on the stool last night.
Lin Er said a little apologetically: "Young Master Zhu came to help me, but I asked you to sit here and rest. I'm really sorry."
Zhu Lin shook his head: "It's okay."
Zhu Lin got up and came to the door. He opened the door. At this time, people had already moved into other side rooms. Many people in Taoist suits were shuttled back and forth, and these were the people who went up the mountain to watch the Dharma Assembly this morning.
The Daoshishan Dharma Assembly will select the head of the Daoshishan Sect, and this person will be the leader of Taoism in the next thirty years. What is even more eye-catching is that it is said that in addition to the six personal disciples, a challenger has also come this year.
In the past, in-person disciples would go on stage to discuss Taoist techniques, but their competition was more like a performance. Who is the leader has been decided a long time ago, and a challenger has come this year, which undoubtedly adds a lot of attention.
Zhu Lin rubbed his face, and he threw out his fatigue from last night: "When will the Dharma Assembly start today?"
"It has already started, otherwise I wouldn't wake up Mr. Zhu." Lin Er smiled and said, "It's just that the Dharma Assembly is still in the preparation stage. The disciples will come to the stage later."
"Oh." Zhu Lin touched his head: "Then let's go there quickly."
The Daoshishan Dharma Assembly is in the big square behind the Taoist temple gate. In order to facilitate the viewing of fellow disciples from all over the country, the people from Daoshishan also thoughtfully prepared many small chairs. When Zhu Lin and Lin'er arrived at the square, the audience was already full, with a crowd of people, nearly a thousand people.
This is a temporary wooden platform, and there is nothing special about the rest. Today, I will decide the head of Taoist Shishan here.
The head of Daoshishan and the elders were already standing on the stage. Zhu Lin took a look and Zhang Qing's face was a little pale, but his face was plain, as if nothing had happened.
The Daoshishan Library was destroyed, which was a huge scandal for Daoshishan. The people in Daoshishan did not allow the news to spread, so they pretended that nothing had happened before.
When Zhang Qing saw Lin'er coming, he stood up and said, "Okay, everyone knows that our Daoshishan doesn't like those empty tricks, and those who make the moves are not needed."
"Thanks to everyone's love, Daoshishan has today. It's also today that we will select a new leader. Haha, I have been in this position for thirty years, and it's time to hand it over to the young juniors today."
Zhang Qing gave up his body, and all the six personal disciples walked slowly to the stage. As they came on stage, the Taoist priests below began to exclaim, these personal disciples were so young.
This generation of personal disciples is different from the past. Many of the previous personal disciples were trained for 30 years after their birth. They are generally older and have been practicing for a long time. However, Zhang Feng, in this generation, they all lived in Daoshi Mountain since childhood, and they have only practiced for more than 20 years.
Zhu Lin looked at the people on the stage. There were a few that he saw at Daoshishan Inn yesterday, and no one else had seen before.
Zhang Qing smiled and said, "Of course, colleagues should also know that there will be a challenger in this year's law, that's this person, please go to the stage." As he said that, Zhang Qing pointed to Lin Er standing below.
Lin'er raised her head and walked onto the stage without fear. Lin'er now uses the appearance of Lin Ping. Everyone was surprised that this person was younger than his personal disciple.
Zhang Qing said lightly: "Just before the last Dharma Assembly, a person who secretly learned Taoist magic appeared among the outer disciples of Daoshishan. Not only that, he also learned the Yin and Yang Poles of our Taoist Mountain."
"After knowing this, the elder did not abolish the outer disciple, but drove him out of Daoshi Mountain. After so many years, the outer disciple was unwilling to accept a disciple, and that person was the challenger."
"Originally, the Dharma Assembly could only be attended by people from Daoshishan, but Daoshishan recruits colleagues from all over the world, and this challenger will also be the only Yin-Yang two-pole formation in Daoshishan, so we made an exception and gave him the opportunity to compete for the leader."
With Zhang Qing saying this, the people watching from the audience looked at Lin Er with contempt, and Daoshishan's image in their minds became taller.
"Okay, today's Dharma Assembly has officially begun!" Zhang Qing said loudly: "The first part is to select our new leader! Now let these six personal disciples and new challengers start to discuss Taoism. This time, the competition is an elimination system. Everyone knows that the Fenglin Volcano Thunderland adopted by the generation of Daoshishan to name the six personal disciples."
"And Zhang Feng is my eldest disciple. Each disciple's skills vary from bottom to top due to the different levels of magic practice. Therefore, from top to bottom, they will face off in pairs, and the winner will take up the previous position, and the highest one will be the leader."
"The losers don't have to be discouraged. You are still the pillars of Daoshishan and future elders, but challengers need to pay attention. If you fail, according to the regulations, you cannot become an elder, which means that you only have the leader to choose."
"As my disciple, Zhang Feng has the right to be bye. The challenger confronts the disciples of the second elder. After winning, he can challenge Zhang Feng. Have I explained this rule clearly?"
Lin Er frowned. This rule is not complicated. She just wants her to fight first, then compete with Zhang Feng after winning. After defeating Zhang Feng and you can become the leader.
But you have to know that Zhang Feng is a bye and he can rest on the side. As the second senior brother, his strength is definitely not weak. Lin Er will definitely pay a certain amount of spells to fight with him. Then...
It can be seen that Zhang Qing didn’t want Lin Er, an outsider, to be the head of the sect!
However, Lin'er came with the master's last wish, so she had to nod: "I understand!"
"Okay!" Zhang Qing said: "Then please go down first, start with Zhang Di and Zhang Lei, from bottom to top, take your time!"
When they could see the real magical battle, everyone below watched attentively. Zhang Lei and Zhang Di stayed on the stage. They bowed to each other. They were all fellow disciples. In fact, their exchanges were more about performances.
Zhu Lin sneered, the two of them were fighting back and forth on the stage, and they seemed to be fighting fiercely, but in fact they didn't use a few spells. They were all going through the motions.
Chapter completed!
