Chapter 11:-for-tat
Twinmoon City is once again at its former tranquility, and everything is starting to get in order.
And during this time, the darkness entrenched in the heart of the ancient proverb has completely disappeared, and everyone's gaze at him is no longer a sigh of regret, nor a sneer, but a slightly awe-inspiring look, although he doesn't like this kind of gaze very much, but at least it is much better than before.
Moreover, the ancient proverb can now control the black mang, even if it is not a real spiritual cultivation, but at least it has gotten rid of the name of waste. Of course, the only thing he can't let go of now is the agreement between Mu Ying and Xiao Yi.
In the Tianhongmen selection competition, all the places for the first round of promotion were announced, and only twenty-seven people were left in the eighteen cities, even so, those who could be selected by Tianhongmen in the end were even less pitiful, but in the same way, this also reflects the strength of Tianhongmen.
For the final selection, the location was selected in Liuyun City.
Time passed, and the day of the final selection was long overdue.
As the most powerful ancient city in the Great Hidden Domain, Liuyun City can obviously afford this heavy responsibility, and the magnificent ancient city still seems more than enough after accommodating all the guests of the eighteen cities.
In Liuyun City, the black head of the person extends to the end of the line of sight, and such popularity is worthy of being a big event that has caused a sensation in the big submarine area.
After a few days of cultivation by various forces, the much-anticipated final selection finally arrived in the anti-awaited wait.
The sky gradually brightened, and when the first rays of morning light fell on this Liuyun City, the vast square in the center of the city was already crowded with people, and all kinds of excited discussions were endless.
Tianhongmen recruits disciples, which is the top priority in this great hidden domain, and in today's Liuyun City, the popularity of the situation has undoubtedly reached a terrifying level.
As time passed, the crowds kept entering.
Eighteen city lords, with noble status, sat on the high platform with the most open line of sight, at this time, they sometimes talked to each other in a low voice, sometimes looked around, counting, as the lord of a city, they were more nervous than ordinary people.
On the vast square, there are circular stone platforms on all sides, which are already overcrowded at the moment, and the black pressure is overwhelming, and at a glance, it is slightly magnificent.
Seeing that many forces had arrived, a well-dressed man in Liuyun City moved and landed on the high platform on the side.
"You have come from afar, I welcome everyone on behalf of Liuyun City, today is a major day in the Great Hidden Domain, I think you are already impatient to wait, I don't need to say more about the scene, I hope you can perform well!"
The man is a person from Liuyun City, although it is a selection competition for Tianhongmen to recruit disciples, but he Liuyun City regards himself as the host, which makes many people frown secretly, but because of the strength of Liuyun City, he didn't say anything.
"Of course, there is a small problem to solve before the start of the game!"
The man was on the high platform, and when he said this, he paused for a moment, then looked around and said with a light smile: "There are only twenty-seven people who have advanced to the final round this time, and the competition is still in groups, but after being divided into thirteen groups, there is one more person, so we decided to let Mo Yang advance unconditionally." ”
Of course, with Liuyun City's status in the Great Hidden Domain, coupled with Mo Yang's talent and performance, this decision has won the understanding and support of many people.
"Mo Yang is the pride of the sky in the Great Hidden Domain, and direct promotion is a sure thing!"
"Hmph, I don't understand that little bit of thinking in Liuyun City, they have three people to advance this time, except for Mo Yang, there are still two people who can continue to compete, if the lottery is drawn, so as not to bump into their own people!"
"This is Tianhongmen's recruitment of disciples, isn't Liuyun City's move too domineering!"
Although most people understand Liuyun City's approach, after all, this move is unfair, and for a while, there are many opposing voices in the crowd.
"What a domineering Liuyun City!" Gu Yan sat in the seat, and the chatter around him was naturally heard by him, and he couldn't help but sigh slightly.
"Without this Mo Yang, you also have one less opponent!" Mu Ying sat next to Gu Yan, compared to everyone's opinion, she felt that Mo Yang's direct promotion was not without benefits.
The old proverb doesn't care about shrugging his shoulders, for this situation, he can only go with the flow, whether it is good or bad, who can say clearly.
Since the contestants were all located on a stone platform, Mo Yang in the seat naturally saw the ancient proverb, and when he saw that he was talking and laughing with Mu Ying, he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart.
Ignoring the uproar around him, Mo Yang leaned over, stared at Gu Yan with an unkind gaze, and said softly: "Gu Yan, your Shuangyue City is really a withering talent, and it is said that even you have been promoted!"
Seeing that Mo Yang's tone was not good, the rest of the people also turned their eyes to this side, but when they saw Mu Ying, there was a hint of surprise in their eyes.
Of course, Mu Ying's appearance is too eye-catching, and the rest of the people also recognize the ancient proverb at a glance, in Shuangyue City, the most well-known to the outside world, except for Mu Ying's stunning appearance, it is a natural mysterious body that has not been encountered in a hundred years.
"No matter what, it's better than some people getting something for nothing!" Gu Yan met Mo Yang's gaze and mocked meaningfully. What he said was that Mo Yang wanted to snatch the blood lingzhi that day, and on the other hand, it was the direct promotion issue that had just caused public discussion.
Hearing this, Mo Yang's face sank, and under the gaze of many complicated eyes, he suddenly stood up, looked around, and said in a loud voice: "Seniors, the twenty-seven people who have been promoted this time are indeed not good to continue the duel, but I have a question I want to ask everyone!"
Seeing Mo Yang speak, all the eyes of the audience suddenly shifted and fell on him.
"Moyang Xiaoyou, if you have something to say, please say it clearly!"
In the VIP seats where the eighteen city lords were, a deep voice came from them.
Mo Yang hugged his fist at the direction where the voice came, and then said with a straight face: "I am not talented, I am afraid that I will not be able to convince the public if I advance directly, but it is only for the smooth progress of the game that I made this decision, but may I ask, why did Shuangyue City, a brother of ancient proverbs who was born with a mysterious body, appear in this round of the selection competition!"
Mo Yang's words were undoubtedly like angry thunder, exploding from everyone's ears, especially the words of the innate Xuan Body, which were sonorous and powerful by him, after all, the situation that the ancient proverb could not open the Dan Mansion had already been the laughing stock of everyone in the Great Hidden Domain after dinner.
"Yes, I also heard that little waste in Double Moon City has been promoted, at first I thought I heard it wrong!"
"Who knows, it is said that the city lord of Shuangyue City has always sheltered that guy, maybe he took advantage of the last birthday banquet to intercede with the people of Tianhongmen, don't you know, Xiao Yi, the number one genius of Tianhongmen, has taken a fancy to that Mu Ying!"
For a while, all kinds of discussions filled the entire Liuyun City, which made the atmosphere at the scene a little weird.
Of course, Mo Yang was so targeted at the ancient proverb for many reasons, not to mention the shameful knife in the mountain range at the beginning, just his intimate appearance with Mu Ying was enough to make him angry.
What's more, being humiliated by Xiao Yi that day, Mo Yang concluded that the ancient proverb could enter this round of selection, it must be the secret help of Mu Yuan, Xiao Yi and others, otherwise, how could he advance to the second round if he couldn't cultivate his spirit.
"Mo Yang, what do you mean by this!" Mu Ying was angry, her silver teeth clenched, she stood up and stared at Mo Yang, and said coquettishly.
Seeing this, Gu Yan stretched out his hand to pull Mu Ying, then stood up, staring at Mo Yang with cold eyes in his dark eyes, and said faintly: "Not everyone can be directly promoted like the young city lord of Liuyun City!"
The sarcasm in the words of the ancient proverb is not disguised, but it makes many people slightly stunned, in this Liuyun City, no one dares to laugh at Mo Yang like this, not to mention whether the ancient proverb is a waste or not, just this courage makes many people look sideways.
"Since this is the case, then I am willing to make an extra effort, first fight with this ancient proverbial brother, the loser is speechless, the winner, just carry out the last thirteen groups of group confrontation, how about it?" Mo Yang forced the killing intent in his heart, pondered for a moment, and said expressionlessly.
Mo Yang said generously, it seems that he still suffers, after all, if he wins first, there is no benefit. But anyone with a discerning eye can see that Gu Yan is not Mo Yang's opponent at all, and this move is not good for him.
"I don't agree!" Mu Ying was the first to disagree, even if the lottery was drawn, the ancient proverb might not necessarily meet Mo Yang in the first round, you must know that among his peers in the Great Hidden Domain, Mo Yang's strength was enough to easily rank in the top three.
The ancient proverb waved his hand again to signal Mu Ying not to say much, looked at Mo Yang who was not smiling, and jokingly said: "Well, since Brother Mo Yang is so sensible, then for the convenience of the follow-up game, he will be selflessly accompanied!"
The decisiveness of the ancient proverb surprised everyone, even the rest of the players did not want to meet Mo Yang in the first round, after all, his strength was there.
Mo Yang was also slightly stunned, the ancient proverb dared to agree in public, which made him a little unexpected, and when he reacted, a wisp of killing intent slowly emanated from his body.
"There's a kind!"
As Mo Yang spoke, he got up and swept towards the central square.
Gu Yan showed a reassuring smile to Mu Ying, and in the girl's somewhat resentful eyes, she left the crowd and walked slowly towards the square where her eyes were focused.
It's just that a trace of cold killing intent entwined in his heart as he walked around.
Mo Yang stood on the cyan stone platform, looking at the calm and calm ancient proverb, the killing intent in his heart became stronger, and he immediately said faintly: "That's it, after all, you can't cultivate the spirit, I'll let you make three moves first!"
Gu Yan slowly walked up to the stone platform, looked at Mo Yang coldly, and said-for-tat: "That's not necessary, you know, you still have a wound on your shoulder!"
"You're looking for death!" Hearing this, Mo Yang's eyes were cold, and then he let out a low shout, stepped on the ground under his feet, and his figure had already swept out quickly.
After fighting with Mo Yang once, although the ancient proverb was quick to speak, he didn't dare to be careless in his heart, and at the first time, he made a dodge action.
When the palm wind hit, he was about to hurt the ancient proverb, but he didn't want to be dodged by him in a tricky posture, which made Mo Yang slightly surprised.
The ancient proverb has been fighting with demon beasts for several months, and his body has long been extremely flexible, coupled with the tempering of Xuan Qi, his strength has become more and more terrifying, after all, strength is the root of supporting movements.
"Hmph, let's see how many times you can dodge!"
The blow failed, and the palm technique in Mo Yang's hand suddenly changed, turning into a burst of fierce palm techniques, and shrouded down against the ancient proverb.
In this regard, Gu Yan didn't have any intention of attacking, just blindly dodging, although it was thrilling, but every time it happened to make Mo Yang's offensive fail.
As soon as the two of them advanced and retreated, they reached more than ten moves, and Mo Yang already had a trace of inexplicable panic in his heart, and the speed of the ancient proverb was amazing.
Seeing that Gu Yan easily avoided Mo Yang's attack, many eyes in the audience also flashed a little surprise, because in their opinion, Gu Yan was just quick to speak, and he couldn't fight Mo Yang at all, but the current facts gave them another blow.
"It's a lot of progress, no wonder you dare to agree, but it's all in vain!" Stopping the offensive, Mo Yang's eyes gradually became cold, the red flames swirled around the fist, and his aura also reached a terrifying level.
Obviously, this genius of Liuyun City wants to save his face in public.
