Five days later, Roland took the invitation card and went directly to the palace of the Ice and Snow Kingdom to participate in the Midsummer Martial Meeting. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The so-called "Midsummer Martial Arts" is actually a competition held in the Ice and Snow Palace on the day of the Midsummer Festival, with the purpose of selecting horses for the princesses, and only geniuses who have been screened by the court are eligible to participate.
In addition, even the nobles of the kings and grandsons could not step into the palace.
It can be said that this is a gathering of the young generation of warriors, where the top geniuses of various countries gather together to compete for power, and only the strongest can win the favor of the princesses.
The location of the midsummer meeting was chosen in the Purple Phoenix Palace of the Ice and Snow King's Palace, which was guarded by 2,000 royal guards, and could only be entered by invitation.
The Ice and Snow King's Palace is magnificent, with tall and crystalline palaces and towers hanging from the sky.
In some of these large squares, powerful fourth-order ice beasts were kept in captivity, locked with iron chains thick at the mouth of the bowl, exuding a terrifying and powerful aura.
Even if it was just an ordinary guard guarding the Purple Phoenix Palace, it was also a cultivation of the beginner knight realm, and it was not comparable to the imperial forest guard of the empire at all.
The captain of a high-ranking knight's royal guard team blocked Roland's way and said with a very serious expression: "Please show your invitation." ”
Roland took out the red invitation and showed it to the captain of the Imperial Guard.
The captain of the Imperial Forest Guard squad immediately became respectful, bowed slightly, and said, "Your Excellency, please come in." ”
When Luo Lan walked into the Zifeng Palace, he saw that there were many rare elixirs planted in the garden, exuding a pleasant medicinal fragrance, and the aura in the air was very rich, almost twice that of the Imperial Palace.
Cultivating in such an environment, the cultivation level of a martial artist is definitely much faster than that of other places.
In the center of the square of the Zifeng Palace, a talisman array was arranged, and above the talisman array, there was a three-zhang square martial arts platform suspended.
At this moment, many famous geniuses have come to the square, not only cultivators from other countries, but also some big families and great sects in the Ice and Snow Kingdom, each of whom is a martial arts master of the younger generation.
At this moment, Roland saw a familiar figure, it was the number one master of the outer palace of the school palace in the middle of the Divine Hall, Du Weijia.
He actually came to participate in the Midsummer Martial Arts Meeting!
Du Weijia sat not far from the position of the princesses, wearing a brocade robe that only the strongest people on the knight list were allowed to wear, looking full of energy and radiant, just looking at the place where he was sitting, it could be seen that the royal family was quite optimistic about him.
In addition to Du Weijia, not far from the seat of the princesses, there were three other young men, and the bodies of those three young men all exuded a compelling momentum, each of which was stronger than Du Weijia.
When he came to Zifeng Palace, Roland had a strange feeling in his heart, obviously he was accompanying Natalie home, why did he come to participate in this inexplicable midsummer martial arts meeting?
What's even more strange is that how can there be so many geniuses gathered here from all over the world?
Wouldn't everyone go home with the princess?
"In Lower Arak, I don't know your honorable name?" A young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, at some point, appeared next to Roland and asked with a smile.
Roland glanced at Arak, who was now white and handsome, better than Du Weijia.
Roland said: "Roland." ”
Arak looked a little familiar, stared at the princesses in the distance, and said with a smile: "You also want to win the first place in the Midsummer Martial Arts Meeting and hold the beauty?" ”
"What?" Roland was slightly stunned and asked, "What does it mean to hold a beauty?" ”
Arak said: "Look at the people below, they all want to show amazing talents and capture the heart of a certain princess, but they don't know that they are just green leaves, and the only people who really have hope are the four who sit on it." ”
"Duwega of the Damara Kingdom, Relis of the Cormier Country, Said of the Morris Family, and Ossos, the Quasi-Holy Disciple."
"Wait, what did you just say? The first in the midsummer martial arts meeting can capture the heart of a certain princess? Roland asked.
Arak was surprised, "Don't you know? The Midsummer Martial Arts Meeting is to help the princesses choose horses. ”
Roland said: "
Arak looked at Roland's expression, suddenly realized, and said: "No wonder you are standing at the back, it turns out that you don't know the purpose of the Midsummer Martial Arts Meeting, or not, anyway, we can't compete with those four people, just stand here and watch a good show!" ”
"I see!" Roland recalled what Natalie had told him, and finally understood what was going on, but Roland had no intention of marrying a wife at all, and he didn't want to take the first place in the Midsummer Martial Arts Meeting.
Arak is right, he can't fight anyway, so it doesn't hurt to stay and take a look, the geniuses of various countries gather together, and such a grand event is rare.
The people who came to participate in the Midsummer Martial Arts Meeting, in addition to the geniuses from all over the world, there were also some other princesses and some noble daughters of the Ice and Snow Kingdom.
If they fall in love with a certain genius, they can also take the initiative to show favor to that genius and express their love.
Any force will spare no effort to win over a potential genius, and even get closer to that genius by marriage, which is the way for big families and big sects to survive for a long time.
At the same time, geniuses also need to rely on the cultivation resources provided by these big forces in order to become truly powerful.
It can be said that they have a mutually beneficial and win-win relationship with each other, and marriage is just the simplest and most direct way to establish a relationship.
Not far from the Zifeng Palace, there is a stargazing tower.
The Stargazing Tower, which looks like a tall mage tower, is actually a seventh-order defensive talisman treasure.
The surface of the stargazing tower is engraved with rune array patterns, and it is not easy for even a strong person of the holy rank to break through.
At this moment, the Ice and Snow King and Queen, as well as more than a dozen beautiful concubines, all stood on the stargazing tower, looking in the direction of the Zifeng Palace, in addition, the ten civil and military ministers of the Ice and Snow Kingdom were also on the stargazing tower.
These ten ministers of civil and military affairs represent the ten major forces in the Ice and Snow Kingdom second only to the royal family, and each of them is not weaker than a small country.
The Ice King looked like he was in his forties, wearing a crown on his head, wearing a golden robe, and exuding an imperial aura on his body, and asked, "Prime Minister Wu, do you think this time in the Midsummer Martial Arts Meeting, who can win the first place, will marry that princess." ”
The martial minister of the Ice and Snow Kingdom, one of the top ten auxiliary ministers, has a yellow and purple face, giving people a very powerful feeling, and said in a deep voice: "The old man's personal disciple, Ossos, is only twenty-three years old, ranking fifteenth in the knight list, and may have a chance to win the first place." ”
Wen Xiang on the side said with a smile: "Ossos is indeed good, but his talent is a little worse than Seid, he is only twenty years old this year, and he has already achieved the sixteenth place in the knights' list, and he is also the heir of the Morris family, and his potential is unfathomable." ”
