(I went out early in the morning to do some errands, so the first chapter was a little late.) ）

……

A dense forest a hundred kilometers away from New Kyoto City, this is the red danger area of the Awakened in New Kyoto City, because the lowest-level monsters in this dense forest are all Genki Level 2, Genki Level 3 monsters are extremely common, and if you are unlucky, you will even encounter individual Genki Level 4 monsters.

Because of the relationship between the Sword and Shield Empire, the awakened people of New Kyoto City also know the fourth vitality shijie and know the thing like the vitality barrier.

At present, although some of the fifth and fourth shijie have been fused, they are not complete, so there will be such a thing as a vitality barrier. According to the current situation, there is no problem in passing through the Yuan Qi barrier at the first and second levels, but it will take some effort to pass through the Yuan Qi barrier at the third level, but it can still be passed in some weak areas of the Yuan Qi barrier, but it is not easy to pass through the Yuan Qi barrier at the fourth level.

It's just that these restrictions don't apply near New Kyoto City, because there is a relationship between the suspended holy city, and the Yuan Qi barrier is very thin, so there will be some Yuan Qi fourth-level creatures entering, of course, including the fourth Yuan Qi Shijie major shili people, this is like drawing a circle with two overlapping parts on a piece of paper, near New Kyoto City, is the 'intersection' part of the two Yuan Qi shijie.

So this is different from the Lion City, there are almost no fourth-level creatures near the Lion City, but there are them here, it can be said that if it weren't for the Suspended Holy City, if it weren't for the Sword and Shield Empire, it would be impossible for humans to survive here, just resisting the fourth-level creatures would be enough to make the human awakened people exhausted, and now, there are Suspended Holy City and the Sword and Shield Empire, any creature. Even the terrifying Black Dragon King of the fifth level of vitality did not dare to attack New Kyoto City.

At this moment, in the depths of this dense forest, a sword-tailed lizard with a body size of more than ten meters and a weight of five or six tons was quietly lying in a clearing and eating a third-level creature it had just hunted.

This swordtail lizard is a standard fourth-level creature, its hard and heavy scale armor can even withstand the attack of cannonballs, and it can also change color with the surrounding environment, and at this moment it blends in with the surrounding trees and rocks, especially in the night, even if you look closely, you can't see any clues.

It was at this time. The sword-tailed lizard seemed to have discovered something, and when it looked up, a huge black shadow suddenly fell from above its head, and before the sword-tailed lizard could react, it was slapped to the ground by a huge claw.

The sturdy scale armor on its body was also cracked and dented at this moment, and pungent blood flowed out and splattered all over the ground, but for a creature of the level of a swordtail lizard, this kind of injury was nothing at all. On the contrary, this damage will drive it crazy.

What just fell was a huge bone dragon, and on the back of the bone dragon, there was also a skeleton knight wearing armor and holding a long sword and shield, this skeleton knight was holding a large shield and long sword. As soon as the sword-tailed lizard rolled over, he jumped up and stabbed the sword-tailed lizard in the vital point, and the latter tossed twice on the ground before killing.

In the distance, Wu Ming watched from the top of a large tree as the battle was resolved within this extreme event. also nodded, the strength of the sword-tailed lizard is not weak, and it is definitely the best among the fourth-level creatures. But in the face of the combination of the Skeleton Swordsman and the Bone Dragon, there is no resistance at all, that is to say, among the fourth-level creatures, the combination of the Skeleton Swordsman and the Bone Dragon can already achieve the ability to sweep all creatures below the fifth level.

Of course, if you encounter some special opponents, such as the Awakened with special cards, or the kind of extremely powerful secret art apprentice, the situation will be different, but no matter what, in terms of biological slaves, Wu Ming at least has an absolute advantage, and if you encounter trouble, the role that two biological slaves can play is very large.

After testing the combat effectiveness of this 'skeleton knight', Wu Ming returned directly to New Kyoto City, and the next period of time was calm, according to Dewey, the Wang family, who suffered a big loss last time, actually stopped, and did not make any more moves, and the false accusation against Qi Guangmin fabricated by the Wang family was also investigated by the military department and the Ye family, and the result was that Qi Guangmin was reinstated.

These things were no longer the top priority for Wu Ming, and the most important thing now was to meet the test of the imminent Suspended Holy City.

Wu Ming and Dewey had discussed this matter together many times, and no one knew what the criteria for recruiting secret arts apprentices in the Suspended Holy City were, so even if they wanted to make some targeted preparations, they couldn't do it. However, according to Wu Ming's experience, it should always be right to improve his strength.

Time flashed by, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day before the test of the Levitating Holy City.

In the Third Ring City, in the Ye family's villa area, Ye Zihan has just returned from the Secret Realm of Vitality. At this moment, the momentum on her body was several times stronger than a month ago, as if she was an awakened person who had reached the fourth level of vitality.

Ye Zihan and some of the other elites of the awakened in New Kyoto City entered the Yuan Qi Secret Realm for nearly a month, and only a third of them successfully climbed the 100th floor of the Yuan Qi Tower, and the rest of them still stayed in the Yuan Qi Secret Realm.

And the people who came back this time, including Ye Zihan, were all coming back to participate in the test of the Suspended Holy City, in the new Kyoto City with a population of millions, they were the elite of the elite.

Ye Zhendong learned of his daughter's return for the first time, he hurriedly rushed back from outside, but after seeing Ye Zihan, he felt that his daughter had changed, although the appearance had not changed, but it was even colder than before, it seemed to be difficult to approach, and even gave Ye Zhendong a sense of strangeness.

"Father, I have successfully advanced to the fourth level of Yuan Qi, and this time I am bound to win the test of the Levitating Holy City!" Ye Zihan said flatly, without the slightest sense of closeness to his father after a long absence.

"Okay, okay, Zihan, to tell the truth, you can be safe, better than anything else, your mother and I don't expect you to support the Ye family, we just hope you can live a happy life!" Ye Zhendong is very kind, he may be the head of the powerful Ye family outside, and he is one of the powerful figures in New Kyoto City, but in front of his daughter, he shows his father's concern for his daughter.

Ye Zihan frowned slightly, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, but soon that trace of confusion disappeared!

"Father, tomorrow is the day of the test, I need to rest and prepare, if nothing else, I'll go back to my room first!" Ye Zihan obviously didn't plan to say anything more and was ready to leave.

Ye Zhendong immediately said: "Wait a minute, Zihan, there is something I want to tell you, your friend came to you some time ago. ”

What he said was naturally Wu Ming.

"Friends? What friends? Ye Zihan asked coldly.

"He said his name was Wu Ming, and he came from Yucheng, saying that he knew you and Qi Ting!" Ye Zhendong said while carefully observing his daughter, he had also sent someone to investigate Wu Ming during this time, and he also knew a lot of things, obviously, it was unlikely that Wu Ming was lying, but he had to get confirmation from his daughter.

"I don't know anything Wu Ming, father, if there is nothing else, I will go back to rest!" Ye Zihan replied without any hesitation, it seemed that he had really not heard of the name Wu Ming. Ye Zhendong looked stunned, but still nodded, and then Ye Zihan turned around and walked out.

After Ye Zihan left, Ye Zhendong frowned, and from the side door at the back, the housekeeper walked in.

"Say, which of the two of them is lying?" Ye Zhendong obviously knew that the housekeeper was there, and asked out loud.

"This ...... I don't know, but I hope that Wu Ming is lying! The housekeeper thought about it and said helplessly.

Obviously, though, his implication is that hope is, but the reality is often not.

"I hope so, too!" Ye Zhendong was worried, knowing his daughter Mo Ruo's father, although he didn't want to believe it, but obviously his daughter was more likely to lie in this matter, and the most important thing was that Ye Zhendong obviously found that his daughter had changed.

In the past, her daughter was well-behaved, sensible, and liked to talk to herself, but now, she seems to have become a different person.

For a moment, Ye Zhendong only felt a little exhausted, and even a little overwhelmed.

The test of the Levitating Holy City is unknown to ordinary people, only those who have some status and shili will know, or the best of the kind of awakened ones. In fact, a few months ago, the Suspended Holy City had already issued a batch of test qualification cards to the major human families and Shili, and the Du family's two test qualification cards were also obtained at that time.

In addition to the human race, many elites of the Sword and Shield Empire have also obtained test qualifications, and this test qualification can only be obtained by Shili around the Suspended Holy City, which is also the weishenme, the Sword and Shield Empire and the human race will choose to build a new Kyoto City under the Suspended Holy City.

Early in the morning, Wu Ming walked out of the brothers' butcher shop, and outside, a luxury car had been waiting for a long time, and the car was sent by Dewey to pick up Wu Ming to participate in the test. Those who take the test need to assemble in the first ring of New Kyoto Castle and must not be late, otherwise they will be disqualified.

Wu Ming said hello to Guanxi when he left, after all, this test may not end in one day, it is better to say it in advance.

To Wu Ming's surprise, it was Wen Bo who was driving, and Dewey was also in the car, looking at him was quite nervous, there was still more than an hour before the time of the gathering, and he didn't know what time he would get up.

"Brother Wu, to be honest, I'm really nervous, let's go together, it's good to have a companion!" Dewey said with a smile that Wu Ming naturally had no problem, so the car drove all the way into the Third Ring City, and then showed the test qualification card at the checkpoint in the Second Ring City, and successfully entered the Second Ring City.

Under normal circumstances, humans are not allowed to enter the Second Ring City under the control of the Sword and Shield Empire, except for those who participate in the test.

As I drove all the way, I entered the first ring of the city, which was already built in a different style, and it was hard to imagine that it was in the new Kyoto Castle.

There is a huge square in the center of the first ring city, and the Suspended Holy City is directly above, and at this moment, in this square, hundreds of people have gathered, obviously, these are all here to participate in the Suspended Holy City test. (To be continued......)
