Chapter 2 Talent Competition
There was no word all night.
At the third watch of the next day, the closed eyes of the child on the bed suddenly opened. After a night's rest, and his perverted recovery ability, his body, which was barely able to move yesterday, had fully recovered. After jumping out of the bed and washing up a little, he came to the bustling streets of Phantom Beast City. It's just that he had spent all his savings on a day's stay last night, and he was now penniless. Fortunately, the torture that began at birth made him completely ignore the hunger at this time, and if he had another child, he would have been crying non-stop. Five years of torture have created a mind-like child far beyond his appearance, and it has given him far more endurance than ordinary people.
Walking slowly on the city avenue, looking at this strange city, indifferently looking at the wisps of what happened in the city. Suddenly, a loud sound of horses' hooves sounded in the distance, "Get out of the way!": "Neigh~" A snow-white horse slammed the "brakes" in front of the nameless child: "Ah!" A coquettish cry sounded, and then a girl in a blue dress fell off the horse, and the blue dress was immediately dyed with earthy yellow and gray spots. The eyes met, "You accompany me in clothes!" The eyes of the girl in the blue dress were full of anger. Looking at this scene, the nameless child couldn't help but be a little angry, the girl in front of him, who was much older than himself, was so unreasonable that she almost bumped into him and asked him to accompany her clothes. "I don't have any money. The nameless child frowned, and the slightly agitated voice rang out. "You're a liar!" You're blocking my way, so accompany me in my clothes. "It's funny to say that the power that can easily tear through space didn't cause any damage to his clothes. Although he had been imprisoned in the Elemental Saint Clan and waited for the five elemental spirit pillars to be "purified" by the altar when they were full of energy, the things that the elements could send into the Elemental Clan were not much worse, and for this plane, they were already considered gorgeous. If you put it here, you can't believe it if you say that he is not a nobleman. It's no wonder that the girl in the blue dress said that he was a liar. For a while, the atmosphere couldn't help but freeze a little. And at this moment, a middle-aged man in a noble dress stepped down from a carriage that had just been chasing, "Qing'er, you are making trouble again. "Dad~ He blocked my way, you see, my skirt was soiled by him. Seeing the arrival of the middle-aged man, the girl called Qing'er pointed to the indifferent young man and said coquettishly. "Nonsense! They're walking, and you almost hit someone."
You're still causing trouble for me here!": "Dad!" Qing'er seemed to be a little unwilling, but looking at the serious expression of the middle-aged man, she had no choice but to step aside. However, when the middle-aged man's face met the nameless child, he immediately smiled "kindly": "Little brother, you must have come to participate in the 'Talent Competition'." As for what happened just now...... It's all to blame for my lack of upbringing, and I hope that my little brother won't be like my little shrew. I will make up for the chance. The girl named Qing'er seemed to be about to have a seizure, but she was glared back by the middle-aged man in the expensive clothes. Obviously, this middle-aged man in noble clothes must also regard this child as an arrogant saint of some kind of Chinese official and nobleman. Faced with this dramatic scene, the nameless child just let out a faint "um" and turned away. Everywhere he passed, the crowd of onlookers all consciously moved out of the way, and their eyes looked at him with unconcealed awe.
Along the way, the nameless child couldn't help but smile bitterly, looking at the eyes of the people around him, and couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "Even the nobles are not like this, it seems that this dress is also a trouble, and it is really uncomfortable to be watched everywhere you go." (I'm afraid he's the only one who thinks so, the thinking of people who gather miracles is really not something that normal people can understand.) Again, it's good to be numb, it's good to be numb. Looking at the time, I tossed for so long, and it was almost noon, and if I didn't go to the altar again, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to catch up with the assembly. He scolded the blue-clothed girl named Qing'er in his heart, and immediately got up and walked in the direction of the altar, as for the compensation that the middle-aged man said, he didn't care much in his heart, he just regarded it as the man's polite words.
......
At noon, a fiery red Yuan Sun hung high in the sky of this Illusion City, and the sunlight continued to sway down from the sky. At this time, the Awakening Altar, located in the heart of Illusion City, was already surrounded by a sea of people. And in the midst of this sea of people, a small body was standing with its hands in its hands, and its eyes were closed as if it was waiting for something.
"Knock~" "Knock~" Accompanied by the bell that symbolizes the beginning of the fifty-year event, the whole city is boiling at this moment, and the shouts resound throughout the city. And the owner of the young body slowly opened his eyes at this moment.
At this time, in the center of the square, a long-haired young man ran up, holding a horn-like natal spirit weapon in his hand, which was probably used to amplify sound. And the long-haired young man in the middle of the square is similar to the role of the host. The natal spirit weapons are all used to amplify sounds, and this long-haired young man is really a natural host.
Under the gaze of countless eyes in the square, the long-haired young man raised the trumpet-shaped amplification spirit weapon in his hand, and his face showed an excited look and shouted to the crowd at the sound amplification spirit weapon: "Fifty years, the talent evaluation competition is finally held here again, let us celebrate the arrival of this moment with the most excited cheers!"
"Oh~~~~~~~"
The voice of the long-haired young man seemed to come from all directions, and it clearly reached the ears of everyone present. This is accompanied by the power of spiritual weapons!
The crowd cheered and jumped for joy, celebrating the arrival of this moment.
At this moment, the voice of the long-haired young man came from all sides again: "Okay, be quiet, everyone be quiet, and let me announce the rules of this talent evaluation competition, which is the city lord selection competition:
First of all, everyone understands that only the future of the city under the age of 15, who have not awakened the power of the original source, can participate.
Secondly, this year, only the King of Talent, who has passed many selections and finally won the crown, will be able to awaken his original power.
("Huh?") The nameless child's eyes furrowed slightly.
However, after this, an even more shocking news came out of the mouth of the long-haired young man again. )
Finally, because this talent contest is also a contest for the selection of the heir of the lord of the city. Therefore, this competition will refuse all people from outside the city to participate, and I would like to express my heartfelt apologies to all the guests and friends outside the city. As he spoke, he slowly bowed ninety degrees forward, bowing a standard gentleman's reasoning.
"What?!!!" The nameless child couldn't keep his composure, and his standing hands couldn't help but clench slowly......
