C1222 Day of contest
Tomorrow was the day of the Seven Great Territories' competition.
According to the customs of the previous sessions, the competition should have been held on the day of the first few days, but no one would have thought that the Heavenly Dragon Halberd were taken by someone else, which was why the time of the seven great families temporarily changed.
Finally, the day had arrived.
In the Residence of the Lord of Raindragon, many of the commanders of the different territories were gathered there. There were also various Great Stage and Emperor who were going to participate in the competition tomorrow.
But among these people, one of them looked extremely out of place. It was Xie Yu.
Xie Yu casually lied on a chair, as if everything was normal. Other people might be slightly displeased to see this scene, but they also felt that it was very normal. With Xie Yu's identity, being able to sit here with them could be considered to be very good.
After all, Xie Yu came from the Evil Eyed Emperor Clan, a very ancient clan with a long and profound history.
Ao Mo wore a dragon crown, dressed in a golden dragon robe, and appeared majestic, as though he was a genuine emperor. He looked at Ao Mo and asked: "Little friend Xie, are you confident in this competition?"
When Xie Yu heard this, his eyebrows twitched. He looked at Ao Mo and said, "Master Ao, are you saying that you don't trust my strength?"
"Of course not." Ao Mo waved his hand and laughed, "You are someone reputed to be the ninth Young Master. In all of Demon Domain, how many people have the same demeanor as you? If you make a move, I believe there won't be any problems."
Xie Yu faintly nodded, and said: "But Master Ao, don't forget one thing, I can only make a move once. If others are too useless, I am also powerless."
As the sound of his voice faded, the surrounding people's expressions stiffened, and a sharp glint of light flashed faintly in their eyes. Was Ao Mo saying that they were useless?
Ao Mo's face froze for a moment, he did not look good, but he quickly recovered and said confidently: "I am very assured about that, they will not disappoint me, tomorrow, my Yinglong territory will definitely get the first place."
"Alright." Xie Yu laughed faintly, his expression was light and unhurried, this was something Ao Mo had said herself, if he lost, it wouldn't be his fault.
"Lord, what should we do with that person?" At this time, a figure walked out from the crowd. It was Ao Guan.
Ao Mo's expression froze for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "There's no need to worry too much, there's only one person. Even if he were to join the Scarlet Dragon territory, it would not change anything."
"Yes." Ao Guan cupped his hands and retreated.
A strange expression flashed across Xie Yu's eyes. He looked at Ao Mo and asked, "Is the person that Master Ao is talking about the one who took the Heavenly Dragon Halberd away?"
"Yes." Ao Mo nodded, as if he had realized something. It was very likely that Xie Yu had come for the Heavenly Dragon Halberd, yet had suffered a loss and was taken by someone else instead. Presumably, he was extremely unhappy in his heart.
From this point of view, that person not being taken in by the Yinglong territory was perhaps a good thing, at least it allowed Xie Yu to not feel any loathing for their land.
"That is to say, he has already joined the Yinglong territory?" Xie Yu continued to ask, with a strange look in his eyes. He was a little curious, who exactly was that person?
At this time, Ao Guan looked at Xie Yu and spoke with indifference: "I have met that person before, Fifth Level of Origin Emperor Stage Realm, arrogant and conceited."
"Hmm?" Xie Yu's brows twitched. In the Fifth Level of Origin Emperor Stage Realm, how arrogant and conceited are you?
"I believe he will also participate in the competition tomorrow. By then, you will be able to see him." Ao Guan laughed as he said that, as an interesting expression flashed past his eyes. Unfortunately, Xie Yu and that person were not of the same realm, otherwise, he would have been able to watch a good show.
"I hope it doesn't disappoint me." A profound intent flashed past Xie Yu's eyes, causing no one to be able to guess what he was thinking.
...
At the same time, a similar scene happened in the other Lord's Mansion. The various Lords were making arrangements for tomorrow's matter, preparing for this crucial battle.
Inside the pavilion in the Lord of the Scarlet Dragon's residence, Chi Fan descended once again. He looked at Qin Xuan and smiled: "Little friend Qin, Scarlet Dragon territory welcomes you to join us."
"The Lord is too polite." Qin Xuan cupped his hands with a calm expression.
When Yu Xiang saw this scene, he frowned and glanced at Qin Xuan with some disdain. This person was inevitably a bit shameless, and now that he had shamelessly joined, could he not let go of those rewards?
Chi Fan smiled and nodded, he did not say anything about letting Qin Xuan regain the position of leader, he had already promised Yu Xiang, if he were to change his words now, he would break his promise with Yu Xiang, and he might not go all out to fight for him.
Chi Fan did not take the initiative to suggest it, and Qin Xuan did not say anything either. He was not interested in the position of the leader at all, if not for Zhu Jing personally finding him for a talk, he would have left long ago.
As for what others would think of him, he didn't care at all.
At the moment, all the participants of the competition had been selected. Aside from the leader of one of the Great Stage s, there were four other participants.
Because of the arrival of those people from other cities, the people Qin Xuan and Chi Li had chosen previously had undergone a huge change.
Of the four people that Qin Xuan had confirmed, Yu Qian and Zheng Yi had all been kicked out. Only Zhou Liang and Yin Qin stayed behind, along with a Heaven's Pride from another city.
Overall, those who came from outside had replaced the people who were nurtured and hired by their own territory, they had completely messed up the previous plans of the masses, but Chi Fan had also promised to compensate those who were eliminated by the competition, by giving them either spirit pellets or divine weapons.
Tomorrow's competition is related to the distribution of resources over the next ten years, it is the only chance for our Scarlet Dragon territory to make a comeback. If we lose, we might be expelled from the Sky Dragon City, and if we win, we will soar into the sky and break the deadlock! Chi Fan's expression was extremely solemn as he looked at the crowd. His tone was extremely serious, as if he was speaking with extremely serious words.
For this battle, he had prepared for a long time, even doing things that would go against his reputation. As a result, he absolutely could not allow any mistakes to occur.
"Understood." Everyone nodded their heads as they left, making preparations for the battle tomorrow.
Qin Xuan walked together with Chi Li. As Chi Li walked, he said with an indifferent expression: "I thought you would leave, I didn't think you would actually stay."
"I was entrusted by someone to do so. Moreover, the Yinglong territory has the intention to kill me, so of course I will stay." Qin Xuan said indifferently.
"Is that so?" Chi Li's footsteps stalled, and he gave Qin Xuan a meaningful glance: "I don't quite believe it."
Qin Xuan also looked at him, smiling without saying a word.
The night passed by quickly. When the first ray of light from the morning sun shone down, the entire Sky Dragon City seemed to have come to life. From all seven directions, countless powerful auras were released, enveloping the vast sky.
Chi Fan's expression was as sharp as a sword, he gazed into the distance, his deep eyes seemed to be able to pierce through space, and said: "Let's go!"
There were also many silhouettes walking in other directions, flying in the direction of the battle zone.
Today's competition was no longer about displaying one's abilities, but a true battle. Regardless of life or death, this competition could not be held in the cultivation area, but instead, one had to go to the battle area.
Within Sky Dragon City, many restaurants and inns were in an uproar, many people walked out, their eyes shining with anticipation, their bodies flashing as they followed the figures in the sky.
They had waited for so long, and it was finally about to begin!
In a short period of time, a storm was brewing in the Sky Dragon City as countless figures moved about. As if they had formed a long dragon, they rushed towards the battle zone.
In the air above the battle arena, there were already a few figures who had arrived in advance. In the center, there were dozens of figures standing there proudly with proud expressions on their faces.
Each competition had its own rules for the positions of the territories and they were determined based on the rankings of the previous competitions.
The territories ranked higher up the ranks, they would occupy the most central region, followed by the east, south, west and north. Among them, the east and south had one territory, while the west and north had two territories.
The arrangement of the positions decided the order of the matches. They had the right to choose first, and if used properly, they would have a huge advantage, and might even have the effect of obtaining a decisive victory.
According to the ranking of the previous competition, the ranking of each territory for this competition
Yinglong territory was ranked first, and occupied central region.
Undead Dark Phoenix Territory was ranked second, occupying the east side's position, and the Heaven Swallowing Python's territory was ranked third, occupying the south side's position.
Thunder Roc's territory and the Mystic Dragon's territory were ranked 4th and 5th respectively, occupying the west two spots.
As for the Dark Moon White Tiger's territory s, they occupied the two seats to the north. They could only choose one of the last.
The first person from the Yinglong territory to arrive from the Yinglong territory descended onto the central region. As his majestic figure descended, his expression revealed a sense of pride and arrogance, as if he was born to be different from others.
They had only come for the first place.
The leader had a purple gold crown on his head, he sat on top of a Dragon Cage, his entire body displaying the dignity of an emperor, it was indeed Ao Mo, his eyes sweeping around without any anger, no one dared to look at him.
Suddenly, he turned his head to look in a certain direction. A fiery red shadow quickly rushed over, spreading out a frightening wave of fluctuations, as one blazing Phoenix phantom after another leapt through the air, each of the golden phoenix wings becoming as lustrous as flames, as if they were on fire.
The golden phoenix at the very front was the most dazzling one. Endless flames circulated on its wings, so bright that people couldn't even open their eyes, as if it had become the absolute center of the world. As its wings flapped, balls after balls of terrifying flaming tornados were born.
"Undying Dark Phoenix!"
Quite a few people trembled in fear when they saw the spectacular sight before them, and they couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
The Undying Phoenix was a branch of the Phoenix Clan bloodline. Although it was a branch, its bloodline was extremely powerful, especially the flames that burned on their bodies, they were immortal flames.
