021 Climb the peak

As in previous years, the venue of the New Year's Fair was arranged in the square under the lonely peak of the Star Picking Tower. Seeing that the competition is about to officially begin, thousands of seats in the square are already full. And on the top podium, there are also three men sitting.

On the far right is a young man in his twenties, who is none other than Zhou Qiang, the city lord of Baishan City. Zhou Qiang came from a wealthy family in the royal capital, and this time he came to this remote Baishan City to serve as the city lord, which was his family's experience for him. And on the far left is an old man with white hair, who is Zhao De, the director of the Star Picking Building, a master of ten times of quenching, and also the referee of this competition.

Zhou Qiang and Zhao De, one representing the Great Xia Dynasty and the other representing the Star Gate, both of them can be described as top figures in Baishan City, but at this time, there is a middle-aged man with a calm bearing sitting among them. This middle-aged man's name is Lin Yuanshan, who is not only the head of the Lin family, the first family in Baishan City, but also the first master in Baishan City!

"Master Lin, I heard that Miss is also among them in this competition, Miss is only twelve years old and has reached the triple quenching body, and she is really a tiger father and a dogless girl. There were still a few minutes before the official start of the game, Zhou Qiang said to Lin Yuanshan with a smile. And it's obviously flattery, but people can't hear the meaning of compliment.

"Shanshan, this girl has been spoiled by me since she was a child, and she is usually very lazy in her cultivation. I don't know why, I went to the mountain a few months ago, and after I came back, I suddenly got excited, and I was lucky enough to break through the triple quenching body a month ago, which is not worth mentioning. Lin Yuanshan smiled and waved his hand and said, but it was difficult to hide a sense of pride and relief in his tone.

"Senior brother, you are really, Shanshan is my niece, since she has reached the level of quenching the body and needs medium-grade martial arts, I can choose the martial arts skills in the Star Picking Tower, so why should I be tired to participate in any competition. Besides, accidents will inevitably happen in this competition, and if I break my precious niece's skin, wouldn't it be distressing. Zhao De deliberately said to Lin Yuanshan with a straight face.

"Hehe, what my junior brother said is very true, in fact, I have already prepared a high-grade middle-grade martial art for her. It's just that this girl said that she wanted to participate in this New Year's competition, and I couldn't resist her, so I had to rely on her temperament. It is also a rare exercise, which is beneficial and harmless to her future cultivation. Lin Yuanshan said with a smile.

"That's true. Hearing this, Zhou Qiang and Zhao De both nodded again and again.

The three of them chatted on the rostrum, and seeing that the time for the competition was approaching, all the disciples who participated in the competition walked out of the waiting area one after another, ready to participate in the first competition.

The first competition was called 'Climbing the Peak', and all the participating disciples stood in front of the steps through the Star Picking Tower. Each of these steps is half a meter high, and there are 2,376 in total, which is more than 1,000 meters high. Everyone needs to rush all the way to the top of the mountain and get the promotion card on the top of the mountain to win.

What you must know is that there are 237 disciples who participated in the competition this time, but there are only 40 promotion cards. In other words, only forty people can successfully advance in this round, and most of the others will be eliminated, and the competition can be described as extremely fierce.

At this time, everyone had already checked the identity token and the good cards of the game, and stood behind a red line in a line. Among them were You Yuan, Lin Shanshan, as well as Sun Hu and Liu Caidie, as well as Wei Zhong and his twelve men in a cloak with their whole body in a cloak.

"Big brother, what should we do?" asked a man with a scar on his face next to Wei Zhong in a low voice.

"When the game starts, you lead the four brothers to rush ahead and squeeze the kid down. I and the other brothers answered below, taking the opportunity to make a move, even if we couldn't kill him, we would let him be eliminated directly if he couldn't reach the top of the mountain. Wei Zhong whispered to the scar man.

"Big brother, don't worry, such a high step, even if you fall, you will kill that kid!" said the scar man with a sneer.

You Yuan didn't know that he had been remembered by others, and at this time he just looked at the mountain steps in front of him. This staircase leads directly to the Star Picking Tower, which has been specially excavated and paved, so it is much easier to walk than the ordinary mountain road. But each step is half a meter high, making it not easy to climb. In particular, the width of this step is no more than 20 meters, and more than 200 people rush up together in a while, and the degree of crowding can be imagined.

"It seems that the start is very important, and if you can take the lead, it is not impossible to rush all the way to the top of the mountain without hindrance. You Yuan thought in his heart, and then couldn't help but look at the incense burner on the table beside him.

In fact, at this time, not only You Yuan, but everyone else was also looking at the burning incense that was only an inch left. As long as this incense burns out, that is the time for the participating disciples to start the competition.

Under everyone's bated gaze, the last bit of incense finally burned out. And at the moment when the incense ash fell, more than two hundred participating disciples, including You Yuan, rushed towards the steps 100 meters in front of them with all their might.

"Death to those who stand in my way!" a big black man shouted and rushed forward, as he punched forward. But what he didn't expect was that before he hit this punch, there were seven or eight elbows next to him, but they directly knocked him back.

At the beginning of the game, in addition to rushing to the steps with all their might, everyone also began to shoot at the people around them, hoping to kill their opponents so that they could reach the top smoothly.

As a result, after only a few steps and not reaching the first step, more than 200 people were in a scuffle. The big black man just now was quite good, but he was knocked down by the crash, and some of the others were kicked and broke their legs, and they didn't even know who had their feet, and they were falling to the ground moaning, and they had lost the ability to continue playing.

"It's barbaric enough. Seeing that everyone had already begun to fight, a sneer appeared on You Yuan's face, and he didn't do senseless entanglement, relying on his huge strength of more than 4,700 catties, he easily separated the people in front of him and ran directly to the front steps.

And while You Yuan was running to the steps, the others were also the same strategy, only to harass others to a limited extent, and the focus was still on breakthroughs. Therefore, although You Yuan ran fast, the others were not slow, such as Lin Shanshan, Sun Hu, and Wei Zhong's group of thirteen people who cooperated with each other, and dozens of others, who almost stepped on the first step at the same time.

"Rush!" someone shouted as he stepped on the steps. At the same time, everyone is sprinting to the top.

"Big brother, that kid rushed up!" Mixed in the middle of everyone, looking at You Yuan, who was already one step ahead, the scar man said to Wei Zhong anxiously.

"I and the rest of the brothers will open the way for you, you lead those four brothers to chase after him, copy him in front of him, and then intercept him!" Wei Zhong immediately ordered, and then shouted to the others around him, "Brothers, act according to the original plan!"

With Wei Zhong's order, I saw that the thirteen of them immediately divided into two groups. Scar Man led the four of them to rush forward with all their might, while Wei Zhong led the rest of the people to open the way, blocking all the surrounding opponents. In this way, the five scar men can be said to have been unimpeded all the way, directly chasing You Yuan.

"It's like a team. With his huge strength, You Yuan was already in the third position at this time, and when he glanced back, he just saw the five scar men who were catching up quickly. But he didn't care, after all, it's common to form a team in a game. And there are forty promotion cards on the mountain, even if they are surpassed by these five, it doesn't matter.

You Yuan still rushed to the top of the mountain with his natural frequency, but although his strength was large, it was not a wind attribute after all, and his speed was slightly insufficient. The five Scarface in the back were all known for their speed, and after about a quarter of an hour, they finally overtook him.

Seeing that he was overtaken by these five people, You Yuanhun didn't care, and still buried his head and ran to the top of the mountain. But what he didn't expect at this moment was that the moment the other party overtook him, he suddenly turned around and slapped him in unison!
