The ceremony of the saints, presided over by a mentor, although it is a formality, but it is the standard of the year, the oath of oath echoed in the soul arena through the mouths of nearly two hundred people in the audience, speaking of nothing more than some high-sounding words such as swearing allegiance to the Holy City and following in the footsteps of the Holy Master of Adaria, but with the solemn drum music, with the choking and excited confusion that came from time to time among the new saints, and the audience in the stands also cooperated, the whole scene was quite solemn.

Frankly speaking, only after experiencing the saint assessment can you know how hard-won the identity of this saint is, and there are many people who rely on luck to exclude some competitors who are stronger than themselves. There are also old apprentices who have been in the Holy City for five or six years or even longer, and they may have only been excited when they walked in before, but when they read the vow, these old apprentices couldn't help but burst into tears.

Become a member of the Holy City, follow in the footsteps of the Holy Teacher?

These old apprentices, who have dragged on for many years to become saints, used to be the pride of heaven one by one, but after coming to the Holy City, they have become the lowest level, without the novice protection period, and without the status of saints, if they want to continue to survive and study in the inner city of the Holy City, it is really not a price that ordinary people can imagine. That's just the basics, what's even more terrifying is that there is no dignity, no hope, and even less than a pet dog of the mentor.

At this time, how many of those sworn excitement were choked up and couldn't stop crying, that kind of excitement may be incomprehensible to many newcomers, and even many newcomers in the stands still think that they are just a beat slower than others and have fewer resources, but sooner or later they will understand this sadness.

As for the subsequent challenge, in fact, those old apprentices don't care much about it, and they don't pay much attention to it, a few years of slave life have already worn out the fighting spirit of most of them, making them accustomed to hiding in the shadows, maybe it will take a long time to get rid of it, or maybe they can't get rid of it in their lifetime, they care more about the identity of this saint at the moment, showing off and the like, they don't even think about it.

The ones who are really thinking about this are the real newcomers of the three camps of the Empire, the Federation, and the Dimensional People.

Being able to select the saints at the time of the new year, these are undoubtedly the proud sons of the sky, they may not particularly care about the monthly payment of one or two hundred holy coins for the first and second class apprentices, and they can get this income, in fact, it is not bad for this income, they value more than the reputation they can get through this battle.

Who doesn't want to attract the attention of the great mentors? Who doesn't want to be a blockbuster and be favored and cultivated by more forces? The opportunity is just around the corner, the Saints Challenge!

After taking the oath, the saints did not disperse, and the instructor on the stage was announcing some rules of the Saints Challenge, which everyone had already known, and the saints below had invisibly and spontaneously divided into several circles.

The power of the empire is definitely the most powerful among these circles, after all, it is the accumulation of so many years, and now that it has exploded, there are more than a hundred newcomers to the empire who have been brought to the holy city by the mentor, far exceeding the total number of newcomers in this federation. And now the number of people who have passed the saint assessment is also the most, a full fifty people, accounting for nearly one-third of the entire new saints, not only from Caesar, but also many people from the Amazon and even Tutankhamun's empire.

At this time, they all gathered behind Solomon, although they belonged to different camps before coming, but after arriving in the Holy City, Solomon conquered them, whether it was strength or man, Solomon obviously had his unique set, when he wanted to win people's hearts, there were too many means.

And on Solomon's side, Enoch, who is now quite famous among the newcomers, stands in the eternal left-hand position, saying that the fierceness of the Empire has long been rumored in the Federation, and these elites from the Empire are also fierce and fierce, full of banditry, and the children of the Federation who seem to be relatively gentle and elegant are definitely in stark contrast. Just looking at the temperament, you can see that this is actually one of the important reasons why the Holy City decided to open up to the people of the Empire this time, they need such real fresh blood to stimulate the people of the Holy City, which has been a little solidified, and the integration of different cultures can always bring a lot of fresh things and keep people active. In addition to the forces of the Imperial Solomon, I am afraid that it will be regarded as a dimensional person, this is a real talent group, and the proportion of newcomers who pass the Saint Promotion Tournament is also the highest, even higher than the elite of the Empire. This year, there are a total of more than 40 newcomers in the dimension, and nearly 30 have been promoted.

Wilder Alexander is quite low-key among the newcomers in this class, as the undisputed number one master among the newcomers of the overlord clan, and is also known as the super genius among the dimensional people, he has naturally become the benchmark of this group. Coupled with some of the old apprentices among the dimensional people, there are about forty people gathered around him, which is not much less than the number of imperial forces, and the presence of the dimensional people in the holy city has always been very small, and they never take the initiative to occupy the direction of public opinion, as if it is like a transparent group, but it is definitely not to be ignored. In fact, the talent of the dimensional people is quite strong, thanks to their excellent genes, the proportion of masters is also very high, and because they are natives of the Holy City, they are united by oppression, so their network and energy are actually quite large in the Holy City.

This group is an alternative to the Holy City, on the one hand, it is one of the main forces of the Holy City in its external wars, and on the other hand, it seems that they will never be able to enter the upper echelons of the Holy City. Great credit will be taken away by the people above, and there are rumors in the Holy City that the higher-ups are afraid of the dimensional people, and even targeted exclusion, what they are afraid of is their talent and that kind of internal unity...... Of course, the people who spread this kind of news often don't end well.

Compared with the huge number of these two circles, Caroline has a little less people around her, but there are more than thirty.

Although only a dozen newcomers of the Federation have passed the Saint Qualifier Tournament, there are many old apprentices from the top ten families who have stayed in the previous years, although these people are older than Caroline, but they are really not comparable to their strength. Most people know the situation of the old apprentice, as long as they do chores in the Holy City for a few years, even if they are promoted to saints by grinding time, this kind of person will almost never be able to climb to the top of the pyramid. Rules such as late bloomers are not common here, and perhaps there are only a few people in the long history of the Holy City who have broken this law, but there are too few of them. It is also expected that such a group of people will be the leader of Caroline, not to mention that they don't dare and don't want to steal the limelight, even if they want to, they don't have the ability at all.

This circle represents the family power of the Federation, not only the top ten families, but almost all those who come from the Federation will automatically join forces in this circle, and the top ten families will also accept it, after all, they all have potential to come to the Holy City, which is also the foundation of the Federation that will have so many dependent on the top ten families, and other first-line families. Tivelan, Ghost Heart, Bobo Torrest, and others, who hadn't been seen for a long time, gathered around Caroline and became the core of the circle. Strangely, Oni Hao didn't stand with them.

There were also a dozen or so people gathered around him, as if he wanted to pick up a banner by himself and fight against the other three powerful newcomers. The number of people is a little less, but as the only newcomer among the saints who has publicly appraised the strength of the peak heroic soul, and it is also a record 12,000 Grasso, it is not too much for Ghost Hao to lead an army there alone.

Except for these four circles, the rest are all scattered people, mainly Federation people, all old apprentices from the past, but after those desperate days in those years, they no longer have any hope for their family, when they are the most bitter and difficult, the family has no or no ability to lend a helping hand, so it is no longer needed now, let alone hugging the thighs of the ten major families. As the former pride of the sky, even if they have fallen, they will still have their own bottom line.

The number of people in this circle is not small, there are twenty or thirty people, this is the most neglected group of saints in the past, usually if such a group of people are crowded together, it is estimated that no one will take a few more looks, but this time it is different, there are three newcomers sandwiched between them It seems quite 'eye-catching'.

Wang Chong, Gray, Napier.

These three are all today's champions, second-class apprentices, and they would have attracted everyone's attention, not to mention that Gray and Napier have been hot new stars among newcomers recently. Not only has it been rumored that several great mentors have taken a fancy to Glei, but in this Saints promotion match, these two people also squeezed into the top five of the rookie promotion tournament with a score of sixteen hours and fifty-six minutes and seventeen hours and twenty-three minutes respectively.

And Wang Chong is not to mention, the experimental accident that occurred some time ago, although the above finally brought this matter lightly, but this impact is not so easy to eliminate, so that Wang Chong's reputation in the circle of saints is now very stinky, especially for people of different races, who thought that they could get compensation for granted, but although the above arranged a better residence for them, but the other losses were not compensated, so that many foreign saints were eager to eat Wang Chong alive, if it weren't for the fact that today's scene was a solemn occasion, I am afraid that someone could throw rotten eggs at him。

"I heard that this product went through the back door of the alchemy union, and it was directly promoted without even participating in the assessment. ”

"What? Are you following the path of the Alchemy Union? The person in charge of the Alchemy Union is fine, right? This kind of experiment can blow up the goods of three buildings, and they dare to accept it?"

"Who took him?

"It's Master Murphy......"

"Woo...... Ahem, who then, I think Solomon is pretty handsome!"

The chattering in the stands was endless, and Ji Mengli couldn't help laughing: "This guy is quite interesting, Wang Chong, I heard that there was an accident in the experimental enchantment some time ago and blew up the dormitory building, but he is quite bold...... Phew,"

She suddenly remembered Lan Dai'er's assistant, the one named Ella, who seemed to have mentioned a new vegetable tester surnamed Wang, saying that she was very cared for by Lan Daier: "Your little food tester, won't it be this guy?"

"Isn't that him? Lan Daier laughed: "Well, doesn't it look like a special eater? Skinny, ha, but if you really see his appetite, it will surprise you." ”

"Woo ......" Ji Mengli noticed Lan Dai'er's eyes, the feeling of youth that was invisibly revealed, Ji Mengli hadn't seen it from Lan Dai'er for many years.

Is there an article in this?

Ji Mengli had a slight smile on his face, and he didn't break it: "It's not bad that the newcomers can be promoted to saints." ”

The two chatted about this kung fu, and the following responsible mentor has completed the promotion ceremony and explained the rules of the challenge, officially announcing the start of the challenge, which is also the highlight of today, and there is a sound of mountains and tsunamis from the stands.

"Scarlett is exempt from this challenge because she has not returned, and all other champions who have been called by name please stand in their rings!" the mentor's voice echoed throughout the Contra arena.

When Wang Zhong was about to face the test, the city of Kachirtan was also facing all kinds of strange things, and hungry caravans with various resources gathered from all directions, and at the same time, there were endless sand pirates.

Human life in the desert is as worthless as yellow sand, and the pursuit of wealth by the sand thieves is an obsession carved into their bones, a curse given to them by the desert, and an inexplicable poisoning.

Early in the morning, Renault had just slept for an hour before he was woken up again, "Instructor, here you go again!"

Renault's eyes were red, he grabbed his leather armor and put it on his body, and rushed out of the tent, where the city wall was being built, a group of shirtless sand thieves were frantically carrying wood and stone materials piled up on the side of the city gate, in the desert, wood and stone are precious resources second only to food.

As soon as Renault showed his face, there was a whistling in the distance, and the robbing sand thieves let out a cry in unison, and retreated quickly towards the depths of the desert with what they had already snatched.

Renault snorted coldly and chased after him, and the five sand thieves rushed up at him with shouts.

Boom Boom Boom ......

Renault threw one of the sand thieves who pounced on him to the ground, and looked at the sand pirate brigade that had already ridden the sand camels, he did not chase any further, but asked people to tie up the five sand thieves who stayed behind and put them in prison, and they would become the labor force to build the city of Kachirtan.

This is a simple conversion given by Gong Yi, and the "resources for labor" plan between the sand pirates, it is considered to be bought with money, anyway, it takes a lot of manpower to build a city, this is Tutankhamun, but there is no federation of technology and modern equipment.

Originally, I still had a headache where to recruit, since these sand thieves came, there was really a lot of labor, of course, in order to make them obedient, Gong Yi still prepared a few sets of plans, basically not many of them could withstand three sets, compared to Renault's righteous indignation, he felt that this was a very cost-effective deal.
