Chapter 82: Black Thorns
Coming to the City of the Brave for the second time, Gu Lingzhi came to the registration office for participating in the competition with some nervousness.
The person in charge of the registration list was a middle-aged man about fifty years old, with wisdom in his vicissitudes of life, and when he saw Gu Lingzhi coming wearing a mask, he wisely did not ask the other party why he did this.
City of the Brave is a very tolerant place, and as long as they don't break its rules, they won't ask anyone who signs up about privacy.
"What's your name, kid?"
Since you want to register for a competition in the City of the Brave, you naturally need to have a name.
"Black Thorns. Gu Lingzhi said the name he had thought of on the way here.
She wore a black mask and walked out of the thorns of her past life, a name that suited her.
Shi Jin nodded, wrote the word "Black Thorn" on the identity card, and took out a stone from under the table to measure cultivation.
This time, Gu Lingzhi did not reserve all the cultivation levels that were about to break through the sixth-level spirit disciples at the peak of his fifth-level spirit disciples.
"Fifth-level spirit disciple? Shi Jin kindly said: "Child, I advise you to cultivate and improve yourself again." After all, there aren't many people who come to participate in the competition. ”
In fact, his words were polite, not that there are not many people who cultivate Gu Lingzhi, but that there are so few that they are pitiful. Generally, those who enter the City of the Brave to compete are at least seven or eight level spiritual disciples.
Because the minimum requirement for enrollment in the Royal Academy is a sixth-level spirit disciple, how could those geniuses of the Royal Academy let go of a place like the City of the Brave that is suitable for improving their own strength?
This also caused the minimum cultivation of the spirit disciple field competition to be level 6 by default, after all, those spirit disciples who couldn't even enter the Royal Academy, how dare they defeat the strong with the weak?
"Thank you seniors, cultivation is already sailing against the current, and you can only grow quickly by playing tricks with masters, I want to try. ”
Gu Lingzhi replied very sincerely, Shi Jin glanced at her, and made sure that she did not hesitate when she said this, and her mind was firm, so she dispelled the idea of continuing to persuade and nodded. He bowed his head and wrote the words "Black Thorn" on an inconspicuous small wooden plaque with special ink, and handed the name tag to Gu Lingzhi.
"Here's your badge, take it. In the future, you will have to show your ID card every time you come to the competition. Win 100 games in a row and you can earn the Badge of Bravery, and win 1,000 games in a row to get the Golden Badge of the City of Braves, the highest honor. Become a VIP of the entire Mercenary Alliance, and you can enjoy the qualification to purchase cultivation materials at a three-fold discount in the Mercenary Guild and the City of the Brave on the whole continent. It seemed that he was very satisfied with Gu Lingzhi's firm belief, and Shi Jin's tone of voice was much softer.
"Win a thousand games in a row?" Gu Lingzhi was surprised by this harsh condition.
"That's right. Shi Jin smiled and said: "But don't think that this condition is harsh, you must know that the benefits it can bring you far outweigh the hardships you have to obtain it." You must know that the more you cultivate to the end, the more precious the cultivation materials you need, if all the cultivation materials can be purchased at three folds, you will be the envy of the whole continent. ”
Having said that, it's so hard to even win a hundred games in a row, haven't you heard people say that it's so difficult to even win a hundred games in a row?
"What's the matter?" Shi Jin said solemnly: "You must know that there will be many difficulties on the way to cultivate, and what our City of the Brave provides for the Spirit Martial is already the most convenient path to the strong!"
"Juniors don't mean that. Seeing that Shi Jin had some signs of displeasure, Gu Lingzhi said: "The junior is just curious, can anyone really win a thousand games in a row?"
"Why not?" Shi Jin's voice was full of nostalgia: "Twenty years ago, a genius girl was born out of nowhere, and it took three years to win a thousand games in a row, becoming the first person to win the golden badge in the past hundred years. ”
"Twenty years ago, then she should have been a Spirit Saint-level powerhouse now, right?" Gu Lingzhi's voice was full of amazement.
"Nope. Shi Jin shook his head unexpectedly as Gu Lingzhi said, "She died fifteen years ago. ”
"Dead?" Gu Lingzhi was a little stunned: "Did such a genius die so early?"
"It can only be said that creation makes people. Shi Jin shook his head, not planning to continue the topic.
"Okay kid, if you want to compete tomorrow, just go to the Spirit Disciple's martial arts arena and sign up. I'm going to get an ID card for the next one. ”
"Oh, okay. Gu Lingzhi left a little embarrassed when he heard this.
With the identity card in hand, she went to the spirit field to sign up without a trace of hesitation.
At the back of the arena is the registration area. Taking his identity card to the man in charge of registration, Gu Lingzhi got a note with the word 762 written on it. After asking others, I learned that the first number of the note represents the martial arts arena that will be tested, and the number behind represents the order of the competition.
762 means that she will compete in the seventh martial arts ring, ranking 62nd. If you're unlucky tomorrow and don't draw her to compete before the martial arts arena closes, you'll have to sign up again.
I heard that the most unlucky person didn't draw his name for a month in a row, and wasted a month in the martial arts arena, Gu Lingzhidu felt congested for that person.
No wonder so many people say that competing in the martial arts arena not only requires strength, but more importantly, luck.
Put the note into the storage ring, anyway, there was nothing to do, Gu Lingzhi found a place on the viewing platform at random, and watched the competition on the stage, and by the way, learned more about the future opponent.
She sat facing the No. 3 arena, on which was a veiled girl and a young man.
The girl's weapon is a red aya, and she dances a red aya in between attacks and blocks. The man's moves were a little wide open and closed, and the long knife with a width of a palm was danced by him. The battle with the girl, one rigid and one soft, is a visual enjoyment to watch.
From the man's tricks, Gu Lingzhi could easily see that he was a student of the Royal Academy.
The girl who fought against him for so long has not fallen behind, and it can be seen that she is also the best among her peers.
And on the No. 4 martial arts platform next to the No. 3 martial arts platform, the battle scene is not very beautiful.
The two young men with strong bodies were indistinguishable from each other, and the impact of their fists against the flesh could be heard through the protective shield.
At the end of the day, Gu Lingzhi really saw a lot of powerful people. For example, the girl who wore the red silk at the beginning, such as the young man who fought against him......
As rumor has it, there are quite a few Royal Academy students who like to compete here. From the tricks of many people's battles, Gu Lingzhi could see a lot of shadows of the Royal Academy.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd.
Gu Lingzhi heard a somewhat familiar name in his ears - Xi Hongru.
