In less than a year, Rou'er's cultivation has also improved by leaps and bounds.

Wu Ming took a look, and Rou'er seemed to have made a breakthrough again.

"Rou'er, your cultivation has improved again?" Wu Ming asked with a slight surprise.

Rou'er immediately smiled and said, "Hehe, brother, you can be considered to have noticed me, just the day before yesterday, I had already broken through to the realm of soul travel." ”

Everyone present was secretly surprised.

With Wu Ming's abundant resources as a guarantee, Rou'er devoted herself to cultivation, and the speed of this cultivation improvement was simply incomparable, not far behind Wu Ming.

You must know that Feng Xiaoyang, Sima Yuntian, Zhuge Lingru and others are also the best in their respective forces, but they have been cultivating for several years, and they have only just broken through to the realm of soul travel, and Rou'er has caught up in less than a year.

A cultivator in the Soul Wandering Realm can already be regarded as a middle-level master in the entire cultivation world, and an elder of a third-rate sect is only at this level.

Coupled with the fact that Rou'er is born with the power to control the light and wind, her future is really limitless.

Wu Ming slurred his tongue and gave Rou'er a thumbs up.

Everyone was amazed.

"Sister Rou'er has excellent qualifications, hey, it's enviable. ”

"Sister Rou'er, apart from such a wonderful person as Brother Ang, you are the person with the fastest cultivation speed I have ever seen. ”

Sima Yuntian also said: "Yes, it's simply unheard of, hey, if it goes on like this, Sister Rou'er, in another year and a half, we will not be your opponents, and when the time comes, you have to take care of us." “

Rou'er immediately smiled and said, "Hahaha, it's easy to say." ”

After a few breaths, Wu Ming's words returned to the topic.

He looked at Sima Yuntian and said, "Brother Yuntian, I have returned all the way from outside the city, and the current Yuntian City can be described as a meeting of storms and clouds, with a mixture of dragons and snakes. ”

Sima Yuntian nodded and said, "Well, this time the Yuntian Talent Fighting Skills Conference is indeed unprecedented in scale, the empire has mobilized 400,000 elite combat forces and set up eight stations outside the city to maintain stability. ”

"Four hundred thousand?" Feng Xiaoyang said with a slight surprise.

Sima Yuntian said in a deep voice: "Exactly, these 400,000 elites are only responsible for the peripheral defense, and the security in the city is mainly responsible for the City Lord's Mansion and the Mu Wang's Mansion, and there must be more than 100,000 of them." ”

"Hehe, this is really unprecedented, hiss...... I heard that there seemed to have been a similar event twenty years ago. ”

Wu Ming listened quietly on the side, and Sima Yuntian responded: "Exactly, that time was held in Canglan City. ”

At this time, Wu Ming asked: "Brother Yuntian, it stands to reason that top-level sects such as Shushan, Penglai Immortal Island, Leiyin Temple, Tianyin Pavilion, Qingtian Demon Palace, and Burial Desire Pavilion have no need to get involved in this dispute, right?

Wu Ming has always been very curious, what kind of temptation can attract so many large sects to participate in this grand event, you know, when the time comes, good and evil meet, and the Shenwu Empire is not responsible for the security outside the city, wouldn't it set off a bloody storm?

After listening to Wu Ming's words, Feng Xiaoyang and the others were also very puzzled.

Everyone's eyes unconsciously focused on Sima Yuntian's body.

Sima Yuntian sighed and said, "Hey, yes." From the perspective of the empire, he didn't want to see any sect too strong, and he couldn't afford to directly eradicate all the good and evil sects, so he could only use the method of checks and balances. ”

"Therefore, the Shenwu Empire will select talents from the major sects and entrust them with important tasks from the Empire, so that it can enhance its own strength, not to mention, it can also maintain a delicate relationship with the major sects. ”

Wu Ming nodded after hearing this.

"Then what if there are sects that don't want to participate?"

Sima Yuntian pursed his lips and smiled: "Hehe, there is." In the past, the Infinite Sword Sect, Xuantian Temple, Taiji Gate, Tianya Sea Pavilion, and even the Killing God and Demon Palace were all top-level sects, so they were reluctant to interact with the Shenwu Empire, and in the end, they all disappeared. ”

Killing God and Demon Palace?

Wu Ming's heart moved, but he didn't expect that the decline of the Killing God and Demon Palace was also related to the Shenwu Empire.

Wu Ming thought secretly in his heart: "Hehe, it's also difficult for the Shenwu Empire, in order to maintain his rule, it is really not easy to balance the strength of the major sects and beware of secret rulings." ”

Feng Xiaoyang tightened his eyebrows and said, "It seems that this grand event is another battle between good and evil carefully arranged by the Shenwu Empire. ”

Everyone nodded their heads.

Wu Ming asked Sima Yuntian again: "Presumably, the major sects can also see the mystery in this, they can be perfunctory, and they don't necessarily have to be serious, right?" Presumably, there must still be something that attracts them, right?"

Sima Yuntian nodded and said: "That's right, under the strong suppression of the Shenwu Empire, the major sects want to let themselves have a certain connection with the empire, this fighting skill conference is the best opportunity, the last grand event, almost all of the top ten people were crowned kings and marquises, and the top 100 people were also added to the rank and knight, and they will always enjoy wealth and wealth, and even the first 1,000 people have very rich rewards." ”

"The first thousand are rewarded?" Feng Xiaoyang asked in surprise.

Sima Yuntian looked at Feng Xiaoyang very calmly and said: "Yes, it's normal, the age limit for the participants of this event has risen to forty-five years old, but I am afraid that there will be no less than tens of thousands of people who sign up to participate, and after the primary election, there are also 10,000 people, and only 1,000 people will be rewarded, which is already a very low percentage." ”

Tens of thousands of people from thousands of sect families participated in a large-scale competition, which was exciting to hear.

Wu Ming swept everyone, and it could be seen that everyone's faces were full of expectation.

Feng Xiaoyang smiled: "Hehe, if there are a thousand people, it's too easy, right?"

Zhuge Lingru looked at Feng Xiaoyang and said, "Brother Feng, your goal is too low. ”

"Uh, hehehe, too, a few of us, it's best to be in the top 100, as for the Wu Ming brothers, they will naturally hit the top 10. ”

At this time, Sima Yuntian sighed, "Hey, don't be too careless to underestimate the enemy. I specially asked about the situation of the grand event twenty years ago, don't say the top 100, the top ten, whether you can kill these 1,000 people also depends on luck. ”

Zhuge Lingru thought that what Sima Yuntian said was a bit exaggerated.

"Brother Yuntian, you are too long, and others will destroy their own prestige. ”

Wu Ming said: "Lingru, I'm afraid that what he said is true, we must not be careless." ”

Sima Yuntian glanced at Zhuge Lingru and said, "Sister Lingru, among these tens of thousands of people, maybe nine out of ten are weak, but if you are unlucky, you will encounter one-tenth of the ...... in the first battle." ”

Zhuge Lingru glanced at Sima Yuntian and said, "Why am I so old?"

"Hehehe, I can only say that in the last Canglan event, the strength was strong enough, and they may not be shortlisted, but the shortlisted ones are all strong, and when the competition is held, there are many people who use lost martial arts, even ancient combat skills, and some people use world-shaking immortal treasures. ”
