Xia Ming left the magic shop, and he was greeted by the kind eyes of everyone.

However, Xia Ming was really a little painful at this time, he bought a lot of magic gems just now, and it cost him millions of gold coins, and the consumption of gold coins after entering the legend was too great, and if it continued like this, even Xia Ming's belongings could not support it.

It was the little kitten, who was so excited to see this magic gem that her eyes lit up.

Xia Ming shrugged his shoulders helplessly and returned to the camp with the kitten.

At this time, it was getting late, and after another night of cultivation, the next day, Lieshou and Bluebeard were already waiting for Xia Ming.

"It's very early today...... Xia Ming smiled slightly, smiling at Fierce Hand and Bluebeard.

Lieshou smiled bitterly: "We're worried about you, Xia Ming, who are you going to fight today?"

Bluebeard also looked at Xia Ming, his eyes revealing a bit of exploration.

Xia Ming also has a battle today, but his battle target today has not yet been decided. It's just obvious that most of the current opponents are not Xia Ming's enemies, and Xia Ming's threat is only two people - Richards and Hannibal!

These two are undoubtedly masters, and even more likely than Xia Ming to become the city lord of Emerald City, before that, if it wasn't for Xia Ming defeating Moore, there was really no way to compare with these two in popularity.

But now, it's completely different.

After Xia Ming won Moore, his popularity increased greatly, and now many people are optimistic that Xia Ming will seize the position of this city lord battle.

Of course, compared with Richards and Hannibal, Xia Ming's popularity at this time is still a little insufficient.

"This time I want to choose Richards as an opponent. Xia Ming said with a smile.

The person Xia Ming chose was Richards.

The reason is also very simple, Xia Ming vaguely felt that compared to Hannibal, Richards was relatively easy to deal with. Although Hannibal and Richards are roughly equal in strength. But Hannibal is experienced, and he is a senior-level figure, and there must be a lot of hole cards, so Xia Ming chose Richards, who is relatively more certain.

"Richard, that's fine......" Lieshou was slightly surprised, and then smiled.

Bluebeard laughed too, and there was a hint of malice in his smile: "Hehe." If Xia Ming wins Richards this time, the temple will be defeated by you for the third time......"

Xia Ming was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but smile, what Bluebeard said was not false at all.

It was almost dark, and Xia Ming and the three of them immediately rushed to the Rose Arena.

Today, the Arena of the Roses is even more crowded than it was yesterday, almost crowded, not only in the audience, but also in large numbers standing to the side to watch the game. Waiting.

The battle of the city lord has reached this day, and there is no one in the Emerald City who does not pay attention, and everyone wants to know who will become the city lord of the Emerald City.

As soon as Xia Ming entered the scene, he attracted great attention.

In the audience, many people were cheering Xia Ming's name at this moment and waving to Xia Ming.

The little kitten was very excited, it stood on Xia Ming's shoulders and held its head high, and even had a bit of a taste of showing off. It's as if these people were frantically shouting its name.

Xia Ming didn't pay attention to these audiences, but swept his gaze to the field. At this time, there are also several masters in the field, including Richards!

Richards looked at Xia Ming, his eyes also showed a little vigilance, Xia Ming's strength was enough to threaten Richards.

And what makes Richards even more vigilant. For a long time, Richards didn't know where Xia Ming's limit was, and even when Xia Ming fought against Moore, he never showed his full strength, which is not mysterious.

Richards and Xia Ming's eyes met in mid-air. Many people noticed this scene, and they all felt a little intriguing, as if they sensed that there was already a trend of war burning between Xia Ming and Richard......

"Richards and Xia Ming are facing each other......"

"It's normal, the Holy Council and the Temple were originally a little contradictory, and now among all of them, Xia Ming, Richards, and Hannibal have the greatest hope of becoming the city lord, and the rest are almost negligible, not a level. Someone sighed.

"That's right, it seems that Xia Ming and Richards are going to meet ...... in advance"

Everyone felt the faint aura between Xia Ming and Richards, and they also sensed the subtlety of the atmosphere at this time, and said one after another.

"Today's battle for the city lord has officially begun! Today will be the competition except for the finals, and tomorrow the position of the city lord of the Emerald City will be decided!"

Everyone was so excited that they raised their arms and shouted.

And the strong people in the field were also gearing up, only to feel that their blood was boiling a little.

"Who's going to fight the first battle?"

The Ice Princess's voice drifted faintly, and a pair of eyes scanned everyone.

The powerhouses in the field were a little impatient, and soon, before Xia Ming was ready to say that he would challenge Richards, someone took the lead in starting to challenge.

It's just that these people's games are relatively not so much attention-grabbing, but these strong men also do their best.

Several battles ended one after another, and although these battles were quite exciting, they could not satisfy all the spectators in the field, and everyone looked forward to Xia Ming and Richards!

This time, Xia Ming smiled slightly, he took the lead in coming out of the crowd, his body was a little, light and swift standing in the field, the kitten was also lying on Xia Ming's shoulder, the kitten seemed to know what was going to happen next, and also stared at Richards.

"Richards, I'm going to challenge you!" Xia Mingyao pointed at Richards and said lightly.

Xia Ming's voice was not loud, but when he flew to the center of the arena, everyone had already quieted down, and at this time, Xia Ming's voice spread throughout the audience, looking extremely confident.

"Xia Ming wants to challenge Richard!"

"Finally a challenge, my guess is really good, the Holy Council and the Temple, is it finally going to fight?"

Everyone was talking and full of anticipation. All of them stared intently at the field.

Fierce Hand and Bluebeard also tense up on the sidelines.

"Grandma's, it's obviously not my fight, but I'm more nervous than Xia Ming!" Lieshou let out a long breath of turbid air and said with a wry smile.

"I feel the same way, this time, it's all up to Xia Ming......" Bluebeard is the same.

Now Xia Ming's body. But with all the hopes of the Holy Council, and Richards too, neither of them could afford to lose!

In the face of Xia Ming's challenge, Richards smiled slightly, his eyes revealed a trace of solemnity, and then the whole person also flew up in the air and floated into the field.

"Xia Ming, I accept your challenge!" Richards replied as well.

The stadium immediately erupted in violent cheers, and at least tens of thousands of people were shouting the names of Xia Ming and Richards. Everyone shouted frantically, and the scene was very hot for a while.

Xia Ming and Richards stood on their sides, their eyes intertwined, and they couldn't help but hold the staff tightly.

They all know that each other is an extraordinary opponent.

The Ice Princess stood on the high platform for a short pause, and then said slowly: "Ready to start!"

As the Ice Princess gave an order, the cheers of the audience came to an abrupt end, and the tens of thousands of people seemed to have been banned at the same time. All of them were silent, and the Rose Arena suddenly became extremely quiet.

Begin!

This is a battle that has been watched by all eyes. It's finally kicked off!

Xia Ming and Richards also took immediate action at the moment when the Ice Princess's words just fell.

Xia Ming and Richards began to run rapidly, and between the two of them, their bodies were staggered, and the speed was extremely fast, but they left two afterimages in place, and everyone almost didn't react.

The criticality of this battle is self-evident. It almost means that whoever wins this battle will face Hannibal in tomorrow's decisive battle!

Because except for Hannibal, the rest of the field is almost unconcerned, and the gap with them is too great.

Xia Ming raised his staff. A dazzling brilliance suddenly bloomed above the Holy Light Throne, and powerful light energy surged out, locking Richards at the same time.

A hint of strangeness flashed in Richard's eyes, just because of the Holy Light Throne in Xia Ming's hands.

The Holy Light Monarchy is a Light Hallow, even if Richards, as an important member of the Temple, does not have a Light Hallow, so naturally he can't help but feel a little envious of Xia Ming.

"Shield of Thunder and Fire!"

"Light Guardian!"

Xia Ming and Richards both coincidentally chose defensive magic, and in a battle of this intensity, defensive magic was of course crucial, so neither of them had any hesitation.

From the perspective of defense alone, Xia Ming's Thunder Fire Shield seems to be stronger, after all, the Thunder Fire Shield contains a double meaning, and the power of the superposition of the two mysteries is naturally extraordinary.

And Richards is not without advantages, after all, his realm is a cut above Xia Ming, Xia Ming is only in the middle of the twelfth level, and Richards is already close to the thirteenth level.

The shield of thunder and fire appeared in front of Xia Ming, the scorching flames and violent thunder and lightning also gave Xia Ming a little sense of security, he raised his staff again, not wasting any time, and at the same time preparing to attack magic!

At this time, Richards also began to prepare to attack magic, Richards tried his best, and a stream of magical light lingered in front of him, and these magic elements were all light elements, extremely pure, which was Xiaocheng's light mystery.

Immediately after, not only the light element, but even a trace of the dark element was condensed!

Xia Ming's eyes shrank slightly.

"Initiate of light and darkness, isn't this Augustine......" Seeing that not only the light element was condensed in the air, but even the dark element had a tendency to condense, Xia Ming's gaze was already extremely solemn.

Light and darkness are initiates, which reminds Xia Ming of Augustine.

It seems that Augustine is planning to combine the mysteries of light with the mysteries of darkness.

"Xia Ming, I'm afraid you don't know the way, Augustine's magic, a large part of it is taught by me! He can be said to be half of my disciple......" At this time, it seemed to see Xia Ming's surprise, and Richards laughed loudly and revealed the mystery.

It turns out that Richards and Augustine still have this relationship! (To be continued......
