C1832 The Beast Tide Had Arrived
The middle-aged man shouted out loudly. Immediately after, someone quickly arranged themselves and gathered all the participants that met the requirements. Then, the selection began.
The entire selection process was extremely lively, and many people were extremely excited as they watched. It was as if the participants were themselves. Of course, the surrounding spectators... Perhaps they weren't participants, but most of them were related to those participants. In terms of benefits, they were naturally very excited and nervous.
Lin Yi, on the other hand, was a little bored watching these competitions. With his Seventh Layer of Qi Refining cultivation base, he would be able to watch these competitions. However, Hou Qing's performance was pretty good. With his Fifth Layer of Qi Refining cultivation base, his performance in these matches was quite outstanding. Even Elder Tang, who was standing on the tall platform, paid more attention to him.
Hou Lan's performance was average, but he should be able to squeeze in as well. Huo Zhan's son and daughter, Huo Yang and Huo Xiaoxiao, were both Fifth Layer of Qi Refining warriors. It could be said that they were pretty good. Apart from them, amongst the other major cities and powers... * Hong Long...... *
However, what surprised Lin Yi was that the other two families were also from the three major families of Black Stone City. The Lyu family and Sun family didn't send out any decent young men. Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case, especially the Lyu family, who had always been very strong. It was impossible for them to fail at such a time.
"I keep feeling that something is wrong. Something might happen today."
Lin Yi said in a low voice.
"Hmm?"
Hou Qinglin was stunned for a moment, then he frowned, "True Fire Sect is one of the five big sects in a radius of ten thousand miles. It is the supreme sect. Now that Elder Tang is here to recruit disciples, is there anyone else who dares to cause trouble? Are you thinking too much? "
Unlike Lin Yi, who was an outsider, as a native of the Secret Martial Realm's Black Stone City, as long as it was related to the five major sects, he knew very well what the True Fire Sect was. Usually, he wouldn't provoke them if he could. Otherwise... Once he ran into trouble, his life might be in danger.
As for recruiting disciples, this was a big deal in the eyes of the five sects. Who would dare to cause trouble in such an occasion?
"I don't know, but it's always good to be careful. Don't be too relaxed."
Lin Yi opened his mouth, wanting to say something. However, he did not say anything. He had something to say about his extraordinary perception. He didn't want to tell anyone, because it wouldn't do him any good. It was better to leave a trump card in his hand.
Hou Qinglin felt that Lin Yi was a little strange. Although he didn't think that anyone would dare to cause trouble in this kind of situation, he still reminded everyone to pay attention to it as a way to give face to Lin Yi.
"The recruitment has ended. Those who have called out their names, come forward."
At this moment, the middle-aged man on the stage said out fifty names with a smile on his face. The young genius who had his name called out was immediately overjoyed. The crowd also began to cheer. They felt that these people would have a bright future if they were chosen.
Lin Yi raised his head and saw Hou Qing, Hou Lan, Huo Yang, and Huo Xiaoxiao among them. He wasn't surprised by such an outcome. After all, they were from a big family in Black Stone City. They weren't comparable to those ordinary powers.
"Not good, something bad has happened."
Just as everyone was cheering, a panicked voice suddenly sounded out. That voice was very loud, and it caused everyone present to frown.
"I suddenly have a bad premonition. This premonition is becoming more and more intense."
Lin Yi sighed secretly. He had felt that something was wrong before, but because he did not have any evidence or evidence, he did not say it out loud. Now, this guy who broke the atmosphere seemed to have revealed the premonition in his heart.
"What's happening? Why are you in such a panic? Didn't you see that today is the recruitment meeting of True Fire Sect? "
The middle-aged man on the stage had a gloomy expression as he shouted coldly.
Previously, when he was facing Elder Tang of the True Fire Sect, this middle-aged man had a respectful expression on his face, like a lackey. However, at this moment, he immediately became superior to the rest. The speed at which he changed his facial expression was a little ridiculous.
"Beast tide, the beast tide is here."
That young man panicked and did not pay attention to the middle-aged man on the stage. The words that he had said caused the expressions of everyone present to change.
Beast tide?
Black Stone City was originally considered a relatively powerful city, but because of the arrival of the beast tide... It turned into a ruin. And now... The beast tide had just ended less than two months ago. Could it be that it had descended once again?
"The beast tide has already surrounded the city, blocking all of our paths of retreat."
The young man continued, "This beast tide is unprecedented in history, and its scale is several times larger than the last one. I hope that all of you seniors can lend a hand. Otherwise, all of us will die here."
"This..."
Everyone frowned when they heard this. As the saying goes, one can't get up early without benefits. They did not want to do something that did not benefit them at all. However, they did not seem to be given the chance to choose. Judging from the current situation... If they did not make a move, it would be difficult for them to escape.
"Let's go and take a look first. Hopefully, the situation isn't that bad."
At this critical moment, Elder Tang walked out and led the group towards the direction of the city wall. They were all Advanced Qi Refining Cultivator, and with great speed, they disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Let's go too."
Lin Yi and Hou Qinglin looked at each other and grabbed Hou Qing and Hou Lan, who were beside them. Then they went to the city wall. Hou Qinglin did not let his children go anywhere else to hide. Because the more chaotic it was, the more they had to be by their side to be at ease. Otherwise, there would inevitably be accidents.
"What is this called?"
Huo Zhan shook his head. He could not do anything about it. He grabbed Huo Yang and Huo Xiaoxiao, who were beside him, and rushed over as well. In the blink of an eye, the bustling square had disappeared. Everything was gone.
At this moment, a black robed building walked out from not far away. Behind the black robe, two figures stood respectfully. If anyone saw these two figures, they would definitely be shocked. Because these were the Lyu family Master and Patriarch Sun.
As the two strongest families in Black Stone City, they should have been high and mighty, but now, they were extremely respectful in front of this black-robed man.
"Elder Cui, our plan has succeeded. A beast tide has invaded the city. I believe that with the scale of this beast tide, it will be enough to destroy Black Stone City. I wonder what we should do next?"
Patriarch Sun said respectfully.
No one knew that the beast tide this time was man-made, and no one knew what methods these people had used. However, their goal was to destroy the entire Black Stone City.
