Chapter 483: Prologue
The Hundred Battles Arena is the oldest building in Nanhua Academy, and this arena is enough to accommodate 100,000 people.
The arena is made of solid black stone, engraved with countless patterns that look extremely messy, and the flow of time has left mottled marks on the black stone, exuding an ancient atmosphere, but the patterns on it still look like new.
These patterns are not ordinary decorations, but an alternative formation, combined with the framework of the entire arena, forming a mysterious spirit array, this spirit array is the main reason why the Hundred Battles Arena can stand for thousands of years.
Once the Spirit Array is opened, it will be difficult for a Tiangang Realm King to attack with all his strength, and it will be difficult to destroy the arena in the slightest.
This ancient arena has an extremely important position in Nanhua Academy and even in the entire Star City.
It is said that thousands of years ago, when the insects and demons were wreaking havoc in the world, the Star City was besieged by countless underground insects and demons for seven days and seven nights, and it was this arena that sheltered the people of the Star City, hundreds of thousands of people crowded together, relying on the defense of the spirit array, and stubbornly blocked the crazy attack of the insects and demons until the reinforcements arrived.
It was also from that time that this arena became known as a hundred battles.
In recent years, the Hundred Battles Arena has rarely been opened for use, and it will only be used unless it encounters a very grand ceremony. However, this time, Nanhua University hosted the college qualifying competition, but the venue was set up in the Hundred Battles Arena, which shows that the senior management of the university attaches great importance to this matter.
In the early morning, a blazing fireball jumped into the sky from the east, and ten thousand rays of sunlight fell on Nanhua University, like a flame, instantly igniting everyone's enthusiasm.
The whole school is filled with a fiery atmosphere.
At this time, the Hundred Battles Arena was full, and the stands were full of spectators who had come from all over the world to watch the game. Among them, there are students, teachers, merchants, and warriors...... People of all different identities gather here to watch the exciting battles that are about to take place.
Of course, the most important thing is the two hundred teams sitting in the west stand near the ring, there are three or four thousand geniuses from the major intermediate and advanced academies!
In the huge arena, only under the east stand, there are still about two or three hundred empty seats.
At this time, there was still a period of time before the start of the competition, and the spectators in the stands were talking and laughing with each other, and the voices of tens of thousands of people converged in one voice, forming a huge noise wave.
Meng Nan sat in the west stand, listening to the sound of the constant buzzing in his ears, and suddenly felt a wave of irritability rising from his heart, he turned his face, and saw the students next to him, all clenched their fists, pursed their lips, and seemed to be a little nervous.
He frowned.
On such an occasion, even he felt a trace of pressure, let alone the students. However, if they are overly nervous, I am afraid that it will affect their next battle state.
"What's the matter?"
Meng Nan thought for a moment and asked with a smile.
"Sort of!"
"Well, a lot of people!"
"It's too noisy!"
Next to him, everyone in the wolf class scratched their heads when they heard Teacher Meng's words, and said a little embarrassed.
"Hehe," Meng Nan laughed, shook his head, and said, "I'm so nervous now, what if I go on stage in a while?" It's normal to be nervous on this occasion, but if you're too nervous, it will affect your performance, come, take a deep breath, relax, close your eyes, no matter what sound you hear, don't care, imagine that you are on the beach, in front of you, there is a magnificent sea, yes, take a deep breath......
Meng Nan's voice became softer, and the Haoran righteousness in his body fluctuated, carrying a trace of "bewitching" power, as if the magic sound was running through his brain, and fell directly on the hearts of every teenager.
Call!
As if a soft breeze was blowing, the teenagers couldn't help but follow Teacher Meng's words, closed their eyes slightly, and their tense faces suddenly relaxed, as if they really saw the boundless sea, and the nervousness subsided a lot in an instant.
At this moment, suddenly, a melodious bell, coming from nowhere, echoed in the arena.
"Bell-bell-bell-"
The bell rang three times, and it seemed to resound with a mysterious power throughout the audience.
"Huh, it's about to begin!"
In the arena, everyone heard the melodious bell, and they all consciously quieted down, and there was a trace of anticipation in their eyes.
Suddenly, at the entrance to the east of the arena, a figure appeared.
All eyes converged.
I saw that at the entrance, there were one or two hundred people walking in a row, and the fish were rushing in.
Rumble!
In the arena, there was a sudden burst of warm applause, and many people looked at the crowd slowly walking into the arena, and their eyes welled up with blazing light.
"Look, it's the lord of the mansion!"
"Oh my God, the lords of the mansion have all arrived!"
"Huh, isn't that our Dean Qiao?"
"Dean Wu!"
“......”
In the stands, there was a buzzing sound, and everyone recognized the identities of everyone who walked into the arena at this moment, including the high-level of the academy, and the deans of the major academies, who were all big names for everyone present.
Meng Nan saw a familiar figure in the crowd, it was Dean Zhang!
Many bigwigs heard the sudden burst of applause in the stadium, with smiles on the corners of their mouths, and many of them waved to the stands, which immediately caused a more enthusiastic reaction.
It wasn't until the group walked under the east stand and sat down on the empty seats in an orderly manner that the applause gradually stopped.
This is the rostrum.
When all the big names were seated, everyone fell silent, looking down with burning eyes.
I saw an old man in his sixties standing up in the first row of seats on the rostrum. He was dressed in a linen coat with sleeves rolled up casually, and he looked like an ordinary old farmer, but many students from Nanhua University were excited when they saw the old man.
"It's the lord of the mansion!" someone exclaimed, and many people who didn't know the old man heard this, and there was an uproar.
Could it be that this ordinary-looking old man is the famous Grand Mansion Master of the Nanhua Academy, an emperor-level martial artist who has reached the Returning Yuan Realm?
Returning to the Yuan Realm, that is a height that countless people can't reach in their lifetime!
Many people looked at the old man with adoration in their eyes.
Suddenly, a thunderous applause rang out.
It was a tribute from everyone to the lord of the mansion. In this world, if you have strong strength, you can always be respected by others.
In the midst of all the orders, the lord of the mansion had a gentle smile on his face.
I didn't see him make any moves, and his figure disappeared from the audience, and when he reappeared, he had already reached the huge ring that rose from the ground.
......
......
