The year 2382 of the Mauriball Empire, the end of August. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

There are 10 months in a year, and when you enter the eighth or ninth month, it also means that the year is almost over and a new year is coming.

But before the arrival of the New Year, this time of year is a time of depression and even slaughter, for the usual Southern Regions, in fact, at this time, at most the yellow leaves are falling, and there are more leaves left on the trees.

Yellow-leaved trees, green-leaved trees, and even red-like leaf-like trees, all three, combined with the high and clear blue sky, and the white clouds that do not stain a trace of variegated colors many times in the blue sky, it can be said that the "Cold Moon Festival" in the southern region of the Mauriball Empire is actually very beautiful.

No bard has ever sung a special aria for this, and they don't win over listeners, but at this time of year, there are usually more people going out for walks, walks, and views than at other times.

But this year, it's very different.

Almost all adults felt the kind of slaughter in the dark, and in this atmosphere, even the ignorant children's crying, laughing and playing became much less.

Southern Regions, Sangan City, on the outskirts of the city, in an ordinary manor.

"Teacher!" said a man with a calm and sturdy temperament into the main living room and said to the old man in his fifties who was sitting in front of the window.

"How's it going?" the old man didn't turn his face sideways, still looking out the window, and said so lightly.

Dahan's mood was a little solemn, so that his tone was also solemn: "Teacher, junior brother, he still hasn't passed." ”

By passing, he was referring to the martial arts arena tournament held in the main city of Sangan City.

Well, first of all, it is necessary to explain the term "main city", before August, there was no main city that was not the main city, and Sanggan City was Sanggan City. And in the surrounding thousands of miles under the jurisdiction of the city, there are a number of small towns, towns, villages, etc., that depend on it.

In August, all the towns and villages were dismantled and merged, and families and clans were relocated to the eight newly opened districts around Sanggan City, which were called sub-districts.

That's what the official said.

As for the martial arts arena ring match, this needless to say, was originally modeled after Yanhuang City, and for Sanggan City, which is also in the southern region, it started a long time ago, but the current ring match, undoubtedly, is different from the previous ring match. -- It has an extremely important mission.

Correspondingly, it has also become extremely important to obtain the qualification to "enter the list" through the ring competition.

Level 1 to Level 3 can enter the person list.

From level four to six, you can enter the land list.

Level 7 or above, automatically enter the heavenly list. But for now, this list is a bit of a fictitious list. Not to mention whether anyone has advanced to the seventh level, even if there is, most of the outside world does not know.

Not to mention the heavenly list, the earth list is actually only a fourth-level competition, and the fifth level and above are automatically entered, as long as you go to the city lord's mansion once, through the verification of the city lord's mansion, the martial artists above the fifth level will automatically get a place on the ground list.

Just now, the junior brother mentioned by Dahan is the son of the old man, and he is currently at the third level.

And Dahan himself is level four, and just half a month ago, he had already won the place on the arena.

"Waste is waste. The old man finally looked at Dahan at this time, "Da Mu, frankly speaking, the energy spent on him by the teacher is much more than the energy spent on you, but you have already advanced to the fourth level by relying on your own hard work, but he is still spinning in the third level. ”

"Teacher, you have been attentive enough to guide your disciples, the disciples can have today, their own efforts are insignificant, if there is no teacher, under any other martial artist, most of the disciples are still level two or three today, and they may be two or three levels for a lifetime. The big man clenched his fists and said, his attitude was extremely sincere.

The old man nodded, but his tone was not much better, of course, his tone was not aimed at the big man: "You are good, you have been since you were a child." When you are young, you are a good boy, when you are older, you are a responsible man. But your junior brother is too ungrown, and it's just that he is stubborn when he is young, and as a martial artist, it is not a bad thing to be stubborn, but I never thought that when he grew up, he would still be like that. ”

"My brother has been much better in the past few years. Dahan said.

"Yes, with me pressing, and more importantly, with your stimulation, he has indeed sunk a little bit in recent years. There was a deep sense of amazement in Lao Tzu's tone, "Under normal circumstances, after three or five years, at most ten or eight years, he will probably still be able to go to the fourth level." But how can I give him that much time now? Besides, what's the use of going up to level four?"

"Level 3 can't get out on the arena, can level 4 be?

"Teacher, you don't have to be too anxious, the junior brother still has a chance, and the time may not be very urgent. Dahan comforted.

"Yesterday, I thought the same way as a teacher, although your junior brother is not so good, far from being comparable to you, but compared to others, it is not too unattainable. The old man said bluntly, "But, now!"

The old man said, handing a document on the table to Da Mu.

Dahan took it with both hands and looked down, but it was instantaneous, and he was shocked.

The so-called document is actually a piece of stationery, and the words on the letter paper are quite simple, that is, these two lines: "Martial artist level 5 or above, magician level 7 or above, the first batch, the arena, the second batch." Outside of the two batches, they are all outcasts. ”

In addition, it will be destroyed after reading, and this news cannot be disseminated. ”

Seeing such words on the paper, the shock in Dahan's heart was really extraordinary, and when he lost his mind for a while, he even fell to the ground with the letter paper in his hand.

Bending down to pick it up, the big man's hands were still trembling, but in fact, the trembling in his heart was even worse: "Teacher, this is ......"

"This is a letter from an old friend in the city, when I was a teacher. He was a seventh-level mage, and now, he was working under a mage-sama. The old man said, there was a faint pride in his tone, but more worry, "The news can't be fake, and this will be the worst-case scenario, some of our previous plans and arrangements may be useless." ”

In mid-August, the official spread the news that in a few years, the earth dragon would turn over, and the terrain inside and outside the empire would change greatly, but for this matter, both the city and the empire had already made arrangements, and if there was an abnormal situation, the people did not need to panic too much. At the same time, in order to avoid casualties, the government specially launched a temporary population shrinkage settlement plan.

"The real situation may be far worse than we know, and it must be much worse!" said the old man, although he was a martial artist, but at this time his expression was more like a magician, or it could also be said that he was a wise man who knew the world, "The official must have hidden something!"

"Your junior brother, you must pass through the arena!" the old man said in a resolute tone, "You can't be soft on your teacher, if he can't completely settle down, your legs will be broken directly for your teacher." Da Mu, you go and tell him about this, and take him with you, and go and buy the medicine for the teacher first. (To be continued.) )
