Chapter 66 City Election Begins
Finally, Wang Xiaoyun took out a weapon on behalf of Chihuo Sect. It was a small exquisite pagoda.
As soon as this tower appeared, the weapons of the other five sects were instantly suppressed to the point of dimming.
Many youths cried out in alarm.
"The weapons of the five sects are all elementary-level profound weapons. The weapons of the Chihuo Sect can still suppress them by one head. They must be intermediate-level profound weapons!"
"That's right." Wang Xiaoyun smiled faintly and said, "This is one of the most precious treasures of our Chihuo Sect. The Fire Cloud Pagoda is an Intermediate Profound Weapon."
The eyes of all the young people shone with envy.
"The Chihuo Sect is indeed powerful. It can casually take out an Intermediate Profound Weapon."
"That's right. If I am lucky enough to enter Chihuo Sect, wouldn't my future be limitless?"
"Hey, stop dreaming. The Chihuo Sect is a second-class sect. How can we enter as soon as we say?"
The young contestants exchanged words with each other, and their words were filled with incomparable desire for Chihuo Sect.
The messengers of the Chihuo Sect listened very well, their faces carrying arrogant expressions.
City Lord Hong Zhen also smiled and said, "Yes, it is also a great honor for our Bluestone City to have Chihuo Sect come to a small place like ours to choose disciples. Everyone must work hard and seize this opportunity."
Immediately, the contestants expressed their stance and swore that they would use all their strength to win the favor of the envoys of the various sects.
"Alright." Hong Zhen clapped his hands and said, "Enough gossip. Let's start introducing the rules of the competition. Flying ship, Sheng!"
The flying ship rose high again. At the same time, the messengers of the six sects exchanged glances with each other and threw their sect's divine weapons into the sky.
The six Mysterious Grade weapons flew into the sky at the same time, releasing tens of thousands of golden rays of light, causing the hazy dawn to instantly become as bright as noon.
The contestants cried out in surprise again.
Immediately after, the six profound weapons floated in the air. The golden light they scattered directly fell into the Black Sharp Demon Forest. It was actually inside the Black Sharp Demon Forest that they drew winding long lines with light.
After landing on the ground, numerous long lines rose high, forming a wall of light that was a hundred meters tall!
Looking down from the flying ship, the light walls were instantly as complicated as a maze.
"This seems to be … a lot of roads." Xiang Nan pondered.
"That's right." Hong Zhen nodded and said in a loud voice, "Throughout the ages, many martial artists have used their blood and lives to explore the Black Sharp Demonic Forest, and they have even stepped out one safe path after another."
"These safe paths are divided into four levels. They are the Xiantian Road, the Origin Return Road, the Post Origin Road, and the Heaven Origin Road."
"Today, the six great sects used divine weapons to cut the Xiantian Road into three hundred equal parts. Therefore, that Xiantian Road is your first examination place."
Everyone had heard of the four levels of paths. As the name implied, the paths of the Xiantian realm were basically Xiantian demonic beasts, ranging from the first level of the Xiantian realm to the ninth level of the Xiantian realm.
Inside the Origin Return Road were demonic beasts from the 1st to 5th level of Origin Return, and from the 6th to 9th level of Origin Return. Inside the Origin Heaven Road were the habitats of terrifying demonic beasts in the Origin Heaven Realm, which was also the core area of the Black Sharp Demonic Forest.
Hong Zhen pointed at the three hundred paths below and said, "You have a total of three hundred contestants. Each of you will be thrown into a path."
"And all you have to do is cross your own Innate Road as fast as you can and arrive at the second examination hall."
"Points system will be adopted in this city selection. Those who arrive at the second examination hall within ten hours will be rewarded with ten points. Those who arrive at the second examination hall after ten hours will be rewarded with one point less for every additional hour. The highest point will be ten points, and the lowest point will be one point."
"Forward."
The flying ship began to move towards the interior of the Black Sharp Demon Forest. Many contestants crowded around and looked down. Seeing the terrifying Black Sharp Demon Forest being cut into such a shape, their eyes were filled with shock.
Immediately after, they flew over the area being cut and arrived at the top of a huge open space.
Strangely, there were actually three hundred light cages in the open space, and each cage contained a demonic beast.
Hong Zhen said, "This is the second exam hall. What you have to do is to pass through the second exam hall and enter the last third exam hall."
"However, everyone has seen the Yuan Qi cages. Each cage contains a Xiantian fifth level demonic beast. From the beginning of the city selection, the first cage will be unlocked by the tenth hour."
"After that, every five minutes, a cage will be unlocked and a demonic beast will regain its freedom."
"In other words, whoever arrives at the second examination hall at the fastest speed will face the least pressure."
Xiang Nan nodded silently. If he could arrive at the second exam hall within ten hours, then even one demonic beast would not be unlocked. It would be as easy as crossing the second exam hall.
However, the longer he spent in the first examination room, the more demonic beasts he would face!
Every hour, he had to unlock a total of twelve demonic beasts. This was no joke! Even though they were all Xiantian 5-dan demonic beasts, once their numbers increased, they would become incomparably dangerous.
"The last third examination room, move forward!"
The flying ship finally arrived at the other end of the Black Sharp Demon Forest. This place was far away from the core area, and there were almost no demonic beasts left.
Hong Zhen said, "This is the third exam hall. At that time, each of you will be given a famous brand. The third exam hall will be the place for you to compete for the famous brand."
Hong Zhen introduced that a soldier had already given each contestant a famous brand. This brand was round and could be directly absorbed into clothes by the weather.
On the name plate that Xiang Nan had obtained, there were two words written on it: "Xiang Nan."
Hong Zhen said, "The third examination room will only be open for 24 hours. Those who do not arrive within the specified time will be eliminated."
"And in the third examination hall, you can compete for each other's famous brands. You can get one extra point for each brand you snatch."
"After the 24-hour closure of all the exam halls, the contestants with the highest scores will be given priority to be accepted by the sect."
"Alright, let's go back to the end of the first examination hall and begin to let the contestants in."
The flying ship flew back to the starting point and asked the contestants to draw a number plate. The number plate Xiang Nan drew was 300, which meant that he would be placed in the 300th Xiantian Passage.
Soon after, the flying ship flew sideways from left to right. The students' bodies were wrapped with Yuan Qi and placed into their own passages.
During this period, Xiang Nan quickly asked Xiang Zhonghua and the others, "How is your cultivation?"
Xiang Zhonghua smiled confidently, "Don't worry, I was originally at the fourth level of Xiantian and was close to the fifth level. With little Nan 's help, I am now at the sixth level of Xiantian."
Xiang Zhonghua and Xiang Fei were both Xiantian sixth layer experts, while the other members of the Xiang Clan were Xiantian fourth layer to fifth layer experts.
Xiang Nan nodded. "Then I'm relieved."
"Alright, my passageway is here. Xiang Nan, I'll see you at the third examination hall." Xiang Zhonghua raised the number plate with the words "137" in his hand, and then he was thrown down, easily falling into the Black Sharp Demon Forest.
Xiang Nan heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Although Zhong Hua and Xiang Fei were only at the sixth level of Xiantian realm, this realm was more than enough to deal with 16-year-old contestants.
After all, Wang Jinghai was only at the sixth level of the Xiantian realm.
The last one was Xiang Nan. He held a 300-number token and was landed on the 300th passageway.
The city lord shouted loudly, "In order to avoid being disturbed during the city election, the venue is closed!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the six profound weapons suddenly emitted intense light. The front lights condensed into a hemisphere that actually covered the entire examination area with a boom!
Within twenty-four hours, no one could enter the examination room, and no one could come out.
