Chapter 204: The Grand Opening Ceremony

"Congress, opening!"

Although the sentence is short and the voice is soft, everyone in the huge venue can hear these four words clearly. Everyone held their breath, lest the sound of their own breathing dilute the opening speech.

This sentence "the opening of the conference", everyone has been waiting for three years!

Three years is not long, but it is definitely not short.

Triennial, Kyushu event. Regardless of the king's subjects, whether they were cultivators or mortals, no one present did not feel that their chests were hot and their arrogance was dry.

The cold wind hit the air, but it did not blow the fiery breath in the field at all.

When Murong Bo's voice fell, tens of thousands of people in the audience shouted loudly. The accents, the overlapping sounds, and the voices of tens of thousands of people were added together, almost turning the entire venue upside down.

The sound of the call sign rushed straight to Xiaohan, and even the suburbs far away outside Chang'an City could still hear this deafening cheer.

Xiao Yun stood among nearly 10,000 people, even if he was carrying the strange outfit of the iron box, he still couldn't attract the attention of the side at this time. While the people cheered, Rao is Xiao Yun's cold and watery character could not help but be aroused, and in the crowd, he only felt that the young man's blood was stimulated.

"If you hadn't agreed to General Luo Hu, you would have been able to perform well at this conference. Drowning in the crowd, Xiao Yun inadvertently noticed a lot of not weak aura. It was expected that this Shenzhou Martial Arts Association would be as strong as a cloud, and even he couldn't help but have the heart of competition.

Standing on the high platform of the east auditorium, Murong Bo looked down at the people between the venues. Every time his eyes changed to a certain direction, the people in that direction would desperately raise their hands and dance back and forth, for fear that Murong Bo would not see their enthusiasm.

And Murong Bo also nodded with satisfaction from time to time, expressing his own attitude towards the atmosphere of the scene.

The cheers were thunderous, and it lasted for a quarter of an hour, and finally stopped under Murong Bo's wave of his hand. is such a good kung fu, many people have a hoarse throat and uncomfortable throat. This shows how excited the masses are.

"Please—all parties, friends!" After the silence in the venue was restored, Murong Bo turned sideways slightly, raised his hand backwards, and made a gesture of "please".

As his words fell, dozens of people walked up to the east auditorium one after another.

After they went to the VIP seat, none of them sat down, dozens of people lined up behind Emperor Murong Bo, and the suspicion of the host and guest was reflected when they arrived.

Looking at the old or steady figures on the high platform, Xiao Yun silently counted, and he probably only knew so many people. Like Qian Ji and Ling Heng of the Spirit Array Sect, the Great Elder of the Imperial Alchemist Guild, and the Boss Luo and Du Yu of the Five Tigers of the Luo Family, these bigwigs from all walks of life who have lived in Chang'an for a long time are among them.

And the other four members of the Luo family did not appear on the stage, and the rest of Xiao Yun had never seen them, they should be the envoys sent by other state capitals and empires, or the heads of the top forces of other empires.

"You may be seated. Murong Bo smiled again and gave the order, but after seeing that dozens of people bowed down to thank him, they each found their own seats and sat down.

Xiao Yun realized that the tables and chairs on the VIP seats were also extremely exquisite.

At the very front and center of the entire VIP seat is a mink stone chair. The back of the chair is carved with the pattern of "two dragons chasing the sun, competing with Yanhua", symbolizing the supreme power position of the Yanhua Empire, which is naturally the throne of Emperor Murong Bo.

On either side of the throne, a set of luxurious tables and chairs identical to the throne are placed. Looking at this posture, the person who can sit on these two sets of tables and chairs is definitely a big man who is not trivial, and it is very likely that his identity is directly above the ten countries of Kyushu.

Moreover, at this time, no one sat down at these two sets of tables and chairs, which further illustrates the noble status of these two VIPs.

"Could it be that Xia Yu is really here?" Someone in the crowd soon noticed the special in the VIP seat, and many people immediately began to guess. Chixian Shenzhou dominates the ten countries of Kyushu, although the terrain is vast, but it is by no means that Chixian Shenzhou is the whole world. You must know that Chixian Shenzhou directly belongs to the Xia Domain, one of the sixteen domains of the Middle-earth Continent.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable for the crowd to speculate.

As soon as these speculative words came out, although it caused a small commotion, after all, there were many people and they were quickly drowned out in the waves.

Behind the throne, there are eighteen sets of tables and chairs, showing the momentum of the stars and the moon to surround the throne in the center. These eighteen sets of tables and chairs, plus the throne of the Yanhua Empire, which is the top, are the seats of the nine major state capitals and the ten major empires under the jurisdiction of Chixian Shenzhou. This event was hosted by the Yanhua Empire, so it is understandable that the Yanhua Empire is the first.

Eighteen sets of tables and chairs are further back, and there are neatly arranged tables and stools. Here are some scattered cultivators with superior strength but no imperial background, and placing them in this VIP seat, although it is the last, it also shows the respect of the Yanhua Empire for the strong.

When all the guests in the VIP seat were seated, Murong Bo raised his hand again, and the venue immediately became silent again.

"Get up!" Murong Bo shouted softly, and his arm gradually rose with this "up", until he was at the same height as his shoulders.

Everyone was still wondering what the meaning of the emperor's words and deeds was, and suddenly they felt the earth shake violently. Before anyone knew what was happening, the entire venue was shaken. The high wall that towered around the martial arts test venue was like a drunken man, as if it would collapse at any moment.

This scene really frightened the people present.

Although most of the people in the field were cultivators, their strength was still not worth mentioning in the face of some natural disasters.

"Earthquake, earthquake!"

"Run, run!"

The earth trembled and did not stop, and many people began to panic.

"Everyone, don't be impatient!"

At this moment, Murong Bo's voice floated out at the right time. Listening to his tone, there was no panic at all, but another taste of schadenfreude.

The sound wave dissipated, and it was as if it was an order to the earth, and the entire venue immediately stopped trembling. The high walls are still as majestic as before.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Murong Bo on the high platform at this time, thinking in their hearts: What kind of means did this emperor use to make the movement of the earth's crust go along with his wishes?

Everyone's doubts were not dispelled, and they suddenly heard an exclamation in the middle of the martial arts test venue.

Xiao Yun stood on the periphery of the venue, unable to see what was happening in the middle. But he could feel the constant flow of people crowding from the middle of the venue to the edges, which caused the already loose perimeter of the venue to be further blocked.

I only heard countless people in the crowd shouting, mostly angry words such as "what's going on" and "don't squeeze". Some cultivators were so annoyed by the crowd that their words were inevitably a little filthy, and the quarrel instantly triggered a local fight, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of people were beaten to the ground.

Before the conference officially began, dozens of people had already been eliminated.

Boom Boom!

In the middle of the venue, there was a sound like a landslide cracking the ground, and everyone looked at it together, and it turned out that a thick stone pillar had sprung up from the middle of the venue very abruptly. The stone pillars gradually rose until they were as tall and low as VIP seats.

Xiao Yun realized that the people in the inner ring of the venue had to crowd out because of the stone pillar that suddenly emerged from the ground, which caused a temporary chaos.

The stone pillar stood still, and Xiao Yun looked at it again, only then did he feel that it seemed inappropriate to call it a stone pillar, but the stone tower was more appropriate. Although the stone tower has no level, there is a circle of stone stairs that spiral up to the top of the tower.

The top of the stone tower is even more luxurious, and the four directions of east, west, north and south are each inlaid with this huge purple crystal. Under the scorching sun, the surface of amethyst blooms with lilac brilliance, which at first glance is particularly luxurious and luxurious.

Clang!

There was another loud bang, Xiao Yun suddenly felt his center of gravity go down, and his body fell down involuntarily. He adjusted his body in time, but his fall came to an abrupt halt almost instantly. Looking around, I saw that the place where I was standing was about two feet lower than the inner ring.

In other words, in the blink of an eye, the entire outer ring of the venue was sunk more than two feet into the ground!!

It's incredible!

Clang.

Again, but this time in the central part of the venue. The lower terrain of the Central Ring is not as great as that of the Outer Ring, only about one zhang.

In this way, the whole venue is strictly separated from the inner, middle and outer rings. There is a difference in height between each of the two rings, and the venue is artificially divided into three circular stone platforms of varying heights. The tower stands in the middle of the venue, and radiating outward is a three-story martial arts test platform.

After the cultivators in the field understood what had happened a moment ago, everyone was shocked. In the past, although the opening ceremony of the Shenzhou Martial Arts Conference was also very grand, it was by no means as amazing as this year!

It's not that it's not grand, it's a little too grand!

Anyone who participated in the last Shenzhou Martial Arts Meeting knew that these three-story stone platforms of different heights must be three martial arts test venues for different ages. And the top of the tower in the middle will be the last journey of the first crown winner!

In other words, the previous successive earthquakes were not natural disasters, but unprecedented effects created by the Yanhua Empire's skillful seizure of the sky. No one knows how many brackets are buried under this venue, and no one knows how much effort this venue has cost the Yanhua Empire's royal family.

They only knew that this Shenzhou Martial Arts Meeting did not dare to say that it would be the last, but it was undoubtedly unprecedented.

Standing in the outer ring, at the very bottom of the venue, Xiao Yun looked up at the top of the stone tower. He didn't know what it meant, he just thought those four huge purple crystals were so beautiful!

"Haha, I have long heard that the Yanhua Empire has spent a huge amount of money to build a 'Flame Amethyst Array', but I didn't expect the rumors to be true. While the whole people were shocked, a clear and beautiful long laugh suddenly sounded on the high platform, interrupting Murong Bo who opened his mouth to continue speaking extremely rudely.

But as soon as this voice came out, Murong Bo, who was the king of a country, not only did not show the slightest dismay, but turned around quickly, bowed down and said, "Miss Ning, it is really the luck of the Yanhua Empire!"

Although Murong Bo's words did not spread, his humble gesture immediately made the audience boil. Recalling that when he invited the distinguished guests of other Kyushu and Nine Kingdoms before, Murong Bo just turned sideways slightly and politely stretched out his hand to say "please".

And now, Murong Bo turned around one hundred and eighty degrees and bowed!
