Chapter 273: The Contest Begins
"Whew."
The first rays of the morning sun have just spilled onto the earth. And the sound of the trumpet sounded throughout the king. Think in everyone's heart. The crowd of the entire royal capital began to gather towards the square.
Some of the people in the crowd were dressed differently. Dressed in the same blacksmith's costume. Some details on the clothes reveal the level of status. Even the lowest level of the first-level blacksmith is also a respected existence. Passers-by looked at these eyes with a deep look of envy.
Blacksmith. Alchemists are two of the most noble professions on the mainland. I don't usually show my head much. Any of them is very rich. Powerful. Let's take the blacksmith. Full armor on the body. Powerful weapons. Which one is not the dream of a warrior.
And the alchemist is even simpler. A sentence that my brother has medicine can give countless people a headache. Same realm. With the elixir. The amount of vitality is greatly increased. Not to mention that there are a lot of pills that can improve the realm. There is more potential to catalyze. The Storm Yuan Dan is the most typical representative.
At this moment, it can be said that the entire Moon Spirit Kingdom and even the entire Savage Southern Region are in a state of boiling. The forgers who have always been deep and simple have all arrived at the Moon Spirit King Capital. At this moment, they converged towards the square like those ordinary people. To be precise, they are a little more nervous than the average person. They are the protagonists of today.
In the past few days, the originally prosperous royal capital has become more lively. A large number of civilian warriors poured into it. Take a look at the forgers who usually see the head and the end of the dragon. You must know that the organizer of this conference is none other than the Moon Spirit Kingdom Forge Master Guild. The president will also be in attendance. The identity of the head of the Forge Guild can be described as transcendent. Even the king had to put down his body when he saw him.
"Sword dust. Hurry up and get up." And with the first trumpet of that assembly sounded. Jian Chen's door was also knocked on by Ling'er. The thumping knock on the door kept lingering in Jian Chen's ears.
Jian Chen lazily relaxed his muscles and bones. There was a crackling sound on his body. Walk towards the door.
"It's coming. Why are you in a hurry than me?" Jian Chen said in a flirtatious tone.
"You're going to get out of bed again. Once the three-way horn sounds, you will not be eligible to participate in the competition." Ling'er said dissatisfied. Jian Chen, who has always been an early riser, actually slept lazily today.
"Isn't this just a clarion call? All right. Let's go now. A few of them must have already arrived at the venue."
Break the army as the successor of the family. Their father wouldn't let them run around today. To win over the younger generation of forgers, you also need to let these juniors make a move. Hone it by the way. There are not only four families with this mentality. The royal families of several nearby kingdoms have also sent people here. Once there is a person who performs prominently. All sorts of olive branches will be thrown. It can be said that the forging master conference is a matter of fame and fortune.
"That's a lot of people. They are all dressed in the clothes of a blacksmith. I've never seen one before." Ling'er sighed as she looked at the forger shuttling through the street.
"That's . It's a wild event. Only we, the Moon Spirits, are qualified to hold such a grand ceremony in the Savage Southern Region." The vendor on one side said proudly. He is proud of his country to be able to hold such a grand ceremony." All right. Do not say. It's not good to be late and have no place."
"Lelele." Ling'er stuck her tongue out at the man.
"Haha. All right. Let's go." Jian Chen couldn't help but laugh when he saw Ling'er like this. He patted her head and said.
When he walked to the square, Jianchen realized that what the man said was not an exaggeration at all. It can be said that only human heads are seen. People crowded. I can't see anything farther away at all. Be surrounded by a crowd. A considerable number of them were dressed in blacksmith costumes. It's just that there is no badge on the costume. Apparently a trainee blacksmith is not a blacksmith.
"That's too many." Ling'er swallowed. Watch slowly people block the whole square.
"Don't be afraid. Let's go this way." Jian Chen pointed to the side of the road. That's the way the contestants enter. Each contestant can bring a few people into the venue to cheer them on. Just bring Ling'er Yanchen and the two, there are still no problems at all.
Two rows of guards lined up in the passageway. The murderous aura on his body makes ordinary people fear. will unconsciously bypass some. Between the two teams of guards. Two staff members were there checking the invitations of the contestants. After all, this passage can be entered without checking. The venue was already out of order.
"Hello this son. Please show your invitation." A staff member saw Jian Chen's approach. A professional smile on his face. Said to Jian Chen.
"Invitation. This is still needed." Jian Chen scratched his head. He still knew he wanted it.
"Childe. I'm sorry about that. According to the rules, we can't let you in." The man was a little dissatisfied. But the smile on his face hasn't faded. It's also pretty nice to be able to greet the contestants here.
"Boy. Don't stand anymore if there's nothing to do. I didn't even have a forging robe on my body, and I still wanted to enter the field." Another greeter is also idle now. Walked over. Looking at the sword dust.
"Didn't the one who went in just now also wear a blacksmith's robe? He didn't have an invitation, so why could he go in." Ling'er pointed to a young man who had just entered.
"You said Wang Jiang Wang Gongzi. You can compare with him. He's the favourite. And he is also a senior disciple of the vice president of the Moon Spirit Forging Master Guild. You don't pee and look in the mirror." The man said unceremoniously. The tone is very tricky.
"Wang Jiang Wang's family." When Jian Chen heard this, an inexplicable smile appeared on his face. This time I came to the royal capital. It's also calm. The people of the royal family didn't bother themselves.
"Boy. Don't block this door without an invitation. Get in the way."
"I don't know if this recommendation will work." Jian Chen's sword dust took out a somewhat yellowed letter from the spatial ring. This was handed over to Jian Chen by Horton who left Youchi City at that time. It has been more than half a year since he was placed in the space ring by sword dust. It's inevitable to show the old.
"But. Letters of recommendation. Look at your outfit, this letter of recommendation can't have been written by a blacksmith." The man did not forgive. Dismissive of the letter of recommendation in Jian Chen's hand. How could someone's letter of recommendation be so shabby. At least it has to be gilded.
"Yang Jian. You're not enough. This is the person I'm hosting to get in the way of you." The person who originally received Jian Chen shouted at this Yang Jian. and he ignored it. Took the letter of recommendation from Jian Chen's hand and opened it.
"Feng Xing. Whatever you want. You're responsible for what happens." Seeing that someone was coming, Yang Jian glared angrily at Feng and walked to the side to receive the others.
"I'm sorry." Feng Xing glanced at Yang Jian. Then he said a word to Jian Chen. Slowly open the letter.
"What. You were recommended by Master Horton." The man's face was full of horror. Look at the signature at the end of the letter. Asked incredulously.
"Hmm. What's wrong. Any questions?" Jian Chen was frightened by Feng Xing's reaction. Master Horton is also only a branch elder. This man's reaction was a bit overdone. The reverence on Horton's face was evident at the mention of this man just now.
"Did you know that Master Horton hasn't had a recommender for nearly twenty years. As long as Master Horton recommends the person, he will surely shine in the competition." After Feng Xing finished speaking, he carefully looked at Jian Chen. I can't help but have some doubts in my heart. Jian Chen's too young. Not to mention forging at this age. What can be done with that energy alone?
"In that case, can I go in?" Jian Chen doesn't care what this person thinks. All he cares about is whether he can get in. After all, he had agreed to Master Horton to participate in the competition. Otherwise, Jian Chen's temper would not have come to participate in such a competition.
"That's nature. Please come in." Feng Xing handed the letter of recommendation back to Jian Chen's hand and waved his hand. The guards behind him get out of the way. He himself is a sideways. He made a gesture to Jian Chen.
"Thank you. Let's go." Jian Chen smiled at Feng Xing. Lead Ling'er Yanchen to the center of the venue.
"Feng Xing. You actually let them in. You're not afraid of the elders blaming." Yang Jian checked the invitation letter and let a player enter, and found that Jian Chen's figures had already arrived in the venue. He looked at Feng Xing and said viciously. The two of them have always had contradictions. It would be great if Feng Xing's arrogance could be suppressed with this.
This time the welcome was supposed to be with another friend. It's a fat job. But now it becomes his own adversary. That's not rosy at all.
"Huh. You are welcome to file a complaint. Master Horton recommended the person who came, and you dared to stand out of the door. See who is punished." Feng Xing looked at Yang Jian with a different smile on his face.
"Master Horton, this can't be. Master Horton is not with Master Narlins and lives in seclusion in Pool City, how can he recommend a poor boy." Yang Jian didn't believe Feng Xing's words a little.
"Believe it or not. If you want to report it, you go. I don't stand in the way." Feng Xing turned to the side. Ignore Yang Jian. Meet the other blacksmiths.
When they walked into the venue, the three of them knew how many people had come to this competition. I'm afraid that someone told Jian Chen, and the people of the entire royal capital came to watch the game, and Jian Chen would believe it. The number of people who watched the competition alone was bigger than Sword Island, and I don't know how much. Think about it too. Sword Island is just an island after all. The area is only the size of the Moon Spirit Country.
"Sword dust. Ling'er. YAN Chen. We're here." Too late to be shocked. The fat man's voice rang out not far away. Crowding compared to the other side. The fat man is much more spacious here.
Hear the voice of a fat man. The three of them headed in that direction.
"How many people are watching this conference?" Do it on the table. Look at the audience. The whole scene is imprinted. Ling'er couldn't help but ask.
"The square of the royal capital can accommodate 30,000 people. This is because the number of seats has been increased by 20,000 people. Now there are 50,000 people on the field, to say the least. Not counting the staff and test staff." The fat man introduced." This year is different from previous years. The organizer is Yuanmen. The rewards are very rich. As a result, more people participated. It's the biggest in history. There were 3,000 entrants alone."
"Fifty thousand people. Three thousand." Ling'er opened her small mouth. Glancing at the audience again. Even the sword dust on the side was a little dumbfounded. This is a bit of a big number, a little unexpected. The conditions for becoming a blacksmith are not too harsh. But if you want to participate in the competition, the requirements are quite strict. It can be said that there is no one in ten thousand. But even so, there were 3,000 people who participated in the race.
"Grandpa. You see. It's sword dust." A familiar voice sounded in Jian Chen's ears. Jian Chen turned his head away at the sound. People who haven't been seen for almost a year come into view.
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone, tomorrow Huangliang will make up all the invalid chapters in front of everyone, so that everyone has one more pastime during the festival. The sword god is more exciting with you.
