Chapter 74: The Five Famous Cities
Ji Cheng was stunned, and then said with a smile: "Brother Qin and Brother Ximen have a bit of a holiday, and I also know a little bit about it during the preliminary examination. Brother Qin, don't get me wrong, Brother Ximen and we just came to Beiyuan City on the same batch of Fengpeng, and we have no intention of cooperating. ”
Ximen Ling's face changed, and he said, "Ji Cheng, what do you mean by this?"
"Nothing interesting. For you, I haven't looked down on you for a long time," Dugu Ho next to him spoke, "At the time of the first exam, you and the two brothers of the Han family in Beiyuan City frowned, colluded with Xu Feng to cheat, and targeted Qin Feng and his party, thinking that we were all blind?"
Ximen Ling's face turned red: "You ......"
"That is, Brother Dugu and Brother Ji are right, Ximen Ling is not worthy of being on the same team with us at all. Several teenagers beside Dugu Ho and Ji Cheng said one after another. They were either from the same Dugu family or the Ji family, or they were very close to these two families, so they came with the same group of Fengpeng. As for the Ximen family, they were all wiped out in the initial examination in Aoki City, so there was not even a person to speak to Ximen Ling.
"Okay, okay, don't regret it!" Simon turned away angrily, and continued to stay here, which could only be a self-inflicted humiliation.
Seeing this scene, Qin Feng felt a trace of emotion in his heart. The strength of the Red Blood Continent is respected, and this is true. Ximen Ling was isolated by everyone, although there are reasons for his bad character, but it is also related to Ximen Ling's strength. Originally, Ximen Ling was the third-ranked young master in Aoki City, but he lost to Qin Feng in the battle for the fog pool, and he did not get the opportunity to strengthen the fog pool, and his cultivation has been stuck in the samurai realm, and he has been opened up by Dugu Ho and Ji Cheng. Compared with Qin Feng, who defeated Han Rong, Ximen Ling is even worse than one grade, and it is not surprising that Ji Cheng and others chose Qin Feng to cooperate and abandon Ximen Ling.
Seeing Ji Cheng giving face like this, of course Qin Feng would not be cold-faced. The two sides went to a nearby teahouse, asked for a quiet room, and began to talk in detail.
"In the previous examinations of the North Plains City University, a trial venue was demarcated, and all candidates were in the trial ground, either hunting for treasures, or killing fierce beasts, and their rankings were assessed based on their performance in the big exam. If you want to come to this big test, it should be no exception. After sitting down, Ji Cheng said.
"In this big test, there are more than 10,000 martial artists in the entire Northern Plains Domain, competing for 300 places. Dugu Ho also spoke.
There was a trace of solemnity in Qin Feng's eyes, three hundred people were selected among the more than ten thousand martial artists, and the competition was indeed fierce. You must know that these young warriors are all elites selected from the preliminary examinations of various cities, and each of them has good strength and rich combat experience.
"These three hundred people can join the North Plains Academy, and the future will be bright from now on. Of course, the remaining 10,000 or so warriors are not all without gains. In the Northern Plains Region, there are other academies that practice martial arts, and they also need to recruit students, and they will throw an olive branch to those martial artists who perform well in the big exam but do not enter the top three hundred. It's just that for me and Brother Dugu, not being admitted to Beiyuan Academy is tantamount to failure, and I believe the same is true for Brother Qin. Ji Cheng said.
Qin Feng nodded, only by being admitted to Beiyuan Academy could he start the next step and stop Long Hao's footsteps. Therefore, the other academies in the Northern Plains Region, Qin Feng had never considered it at all.
"I don't know how the martial artists of other cities are stronger than the martial artists of Aoki City?" Qin Feng said.
"Aoki City can only be regarded as a second- or third-rate city," Ji Cheng said with a smile, "Brother Qin, have you heard of the five famous cities?"
Qin Feng shook his head. In his previous life, Qin Feng, in the early stage of cultivation, left the Northern Plains Domain early in order to avoid Long Hao, who was a young man, so his understanding of the Northern Plains Domain was not as good as that of other regions of the Red Blood Continent.
"The five famous cities in the Northern Plains Region are five first-class cities, with excellent geographical locations and abundant cultivation resources. The most important thing is that these five first-class cities all have a hegemon-level force, which can integrate resources and supply them to the genius descendants within the family. Therefore, every time Beiyuan City takes the big exam, the five famous cities, to be precise, the young martial artists of the five major families, all steal the limelight......" Ji Cheng said slowly.
Qin Feng nodded. For example, in Aoki City, if there is a family that can dominate, it is bound to strictly protect the resources of the fog pond and strictly prohibit outsiders from touching it. In this way, the younger generations of the family can enjoy it to their heart's content and do not have to compete for that limited number of places.
"Five famous cities, which are they?" Qin Feng asked, he had a hint of curiosity.
"The first famous city is the capital of the North Plains Region, the North Plains City! If you want to say that the overlord-level power of the North Plains City belongs to the North Plains family, looking at the entire North Plains Region, the North Plains family is the number one force, and no one can shake this position. Ji Cheng said.
Qin Feng nodded, the Beiyuan family has a long and deep-rooted inheritance in the Beiyuan region. The contemporary Beiyuan Domain Lord is even more ambitious, sparing no effort to strengthen the power of the Beiyuan family, and eyeing the status of the Chiyang Lord.
In the memories of Qin Feng's previous life, the Northern Plains Domain Lord successfully seized the Chiyang Kingdom and established himself as the king. Long Hao, who defected to him, also rose all the way to the top, and has always achieved the position of the "protector of the country" of Chiyang Kingdom. At that time, Qin Feng was still working hard in the middle region of the Red Blood Continent, so he only knew about the incident of the usurpation of the country by the lord of the Northern Plains Domain.
"The other four famous cities are Qincheng, Tianwu City, Mocheng, and Yangliucheng. Each of these four famous cities has a strong family under its control, and even the name of the city is named after the family's surname......" Ji Cheng said.
Dugu Hao said: "The Qin family of Qincheng, the Wu family of Tianwu City, and the Mo family of Mocheng, the strength of the three families is almost equal to each other. As for Yang Liucheng, there are two families, the Yang family and the Liu family. However, the relationship between these two families is very good, and they are in-laws for generations, so they can also be regarded as one family. ”
After Ji Cheng and Dugu Hao's introduction, Qin Feng had a general understanding of the five famous cities in the Northern Plains. Come to think of it, the main competitors in the big exam should come from these five famous cities.
"When the preliminary examinations were held in various cities, someone watched from the sidelines, recorded the information of many masters, and finally compiled it into a book. In this booklet, the author also predicted the top fifty strongest candidates in the big exam of Beiyuan Academy......" Ji Cheng smiled and took out a booklet.
"Isn't it...... Is there anyone else who is so boring, specially collecting information and binding it into a book?" Qin Feng was a little surprised.
"Brother Qin, don't underestimate this booklet, today's Beiyuan City has already sold hundreds of gold coins a piece. More than 10,000 candidates who took the big exam, who doesn't want it? If you calculate it, it's a transaction of millions of gold coins," Ji Cheng said with a smile and a hint of admiration in his eyes, "The person who came up with this idea is definitely a business wizard." ”
