Chapter 327: Threat
After the darkness, the sight in front of him gradually returned to light, when Jian Chen was hopeless, he had appeared in a very large hall, this hall can accommodate at least 10,000 people, at this moment, the hall was already full of people, many people were embarrassed, and they were all contestants who were just teleported out by the mysterious power like Jian Chen.
"I don't know what kind of power Lu Dao was just now, it was so powerful, it teleported the people in the entire space, could it be the Saint King, or the Saint Emperor, or the existence of the Saint Emperor?"
"Anyone who has a race order arrow has come to me to register, and those who don't have a race order will leave here immediately, and the gate will be behind you. At this moment, a loud voice came from the front, sounding throughout the hall, and in front of the hall, an old man was sitting at a long table, waiting for a long time, and on either side of the old man, there were two deputies, both of whom were very old people.
As soon as the words fell, many people immediately walked towards the back with a dejected or calm face, and left through the gate, and when they left, there were only more than two hundred people left in the main hall.
And Jian Chen has become the most concerned one among this group of people, because except for him who is intact, the rest of the people have more or less injuries on their bodies, all of them are embarrassed, and even some people have torn clothes that do not cover their bodies, not even the most basic space belt, and they still carry packages on their backs, I don't know what they contain.
And among these people, the vast majority of them are Great Saint Masters, and there are only a dozen Earth Saint Masters.
Jian Chen looked around, more than two hundred people were all fresh faces, he didn't know anyone, Ming Dong and Qin Xiao were nowhere to be found.
"It looks like we've all been teleported out right away. Jian Chen thought secretly in his heart.
The two hundred people in the main hall walked towards the old man one after another, and when the first person came to the old man, he took out a few black arrows from the spatial belt and respectfully placed them in front of the old man.
The old man's eyes swept and said, "Five order arrows, confirmed to be correct." β
Immediately, an old man next to him picked up a pen and wrote a "five" on a sign, and at the same time wrote it down on another piece of paper, saying, "Report your name!"
"Liang Dezhong!" the contestant said in a respectful tone.
"Alright, you can go. The old man casually threw the sign to Liang Dezhong.
The third old man immediately took the black arrow.
The division of labor between the three elders is very clear, one is responsible for counting and confirming the authenticity of the token, the second person is responsible for registration, and the third person is responsible for collecting the sign.
The second contestant came to the table and took out three arrows and put them on the table, "Three arrows, confirm that they are correct." The middle-aged old man said in an indifferent tone.
Immediately, an old man collected the token, and at the same time, another old man began to take charge of the record, and after asking the other person's name, he handed a token with the word "three" written on it to the contestant.
The registration was carried out very quickly, and those who got the few arrows of the participation order could not be delayed for long at all, and soon, dozens of people had already registered and left here, and the tokens collected by these people were at least two, and the most was more than eighty, among the dozens of people, there was no one more than a hundred, this scene made Jian Chen feel very puzzled, how did those who collected a few dozens of participating arrows keep them now, and they were not snatched away, because in the late stage of the knockout round, almost all of the participating arrows were concentrated in the hands of some strong people, and they were dozens or hundreds at every turn, Some of the top people even carry hundreds or thousands of competition arrows, such as Jie De Wukang and Shi Xiangran, and the total number of competition arrows on their bodies has exceeded two thousand.
"Could it be that they have been hiding somewhere and haven't come out?" Jian Chen couldn't help but think in his heart.
"One hundred and twenty-six, confirmed!"
Dozens of people registered, and finally one person collected more than 100 arrows for the competition.
Soon, more than 100 people had already registered, and the number of people who collected the most arrows for the competition reached more than 300, which is the largest number at present.
When it was Jian Chen's turn, some of the people behind him suddenly came to their senses, and their eyes were staring at it with a sparkle of light, all wondering how many Race Arrows had been collected by the only well-dressed person in this hall.
Jian Chen raised his left hand, and a beautifully styled ring was immediately exposed to everyone's sight.
"That's the Space Ring!" Someone behind him immediately exclaimed in a low voice, the people who can wear the space ring are either rich or expensive, none of them are simple people, and among the mercenaries, the people who can wear the space ring are all powerful people without exception, because the space ring is very precious, and many earth saints cannot have it.
The faces of the three old men on the review did not change in the slightest, and they were still staring at Jian Chen expressionlessly.
"Whoa!"
The sound of iron colliding continued to come, and I saw a large pile of pitch-black competition arrows rolling out of the space arrows of the sword dust, and soon a small mountain was piled up on the table, and the number was too large to be estimated in a short period of time.
The three old men who judged were immediately moved, and Jiang Jianchen's eyes showed a look of surprise.
When Jian Chen poured out all the competition arrows in the space ring, he slowly lowered his right hand.
"Is it gone?" asked an old man looking at Jian Chen.
Jian Chen felt speechless for a while, shook his head, and said, "It's gone!"
The group of people lined up behind Jian Chen, one by one, were stunned by the number of arrows that participated in the competition.
This time, the old man in charge of the inventory took some time to finish the count, and said, "One thousand eight hundred and seventy-three, confirm that it is correct!"
When they heard this number, everyone behind Jian Chen took a deep breath, and their hearts began to beat vigorously, for those who had only collected a few dozen or more than a hundred Participating Order Arrows, this number was too large, and they were doubly shocked, they didn't expect that a young man who looked to be only in his twenties would leave them far behind.
The attitude of the three judges towards Jian Chen has changed a lot, and the old man in charge of registration looked at Jian Chen with a smile on his face and said, "Little brother, what's your name!"
"Sword dust!"
"Very good, little brother Jianchen, we are shocked by your results, I hope you can continue to work hard and achieve good results in the next qualifiers!" The old man in charge of registration smiled, and then wrote the words "One Thousand Eight Hundred and Seventy-Three" on a sign and handed it to Jian Chen, while also recording it on another piece of paper.
Holding the sign, Jian Chen left here without any nostalgia, leaving a large group of mercenaries who had not yet come back to their senses standing there staring at him blankly.
"Jian Chen, that young man's name is Jian Chen!" someone whispered.
"Jian Chen, I've heard of this name, it's a person who has only recently appeared, I heard that he is very close to the five masters, and his strength is not weaker than the five masters. β
"I see, no wonder he was able to collect so many arrows to participate in the competition, it turned out that his strength was already comparable to that of the five masters. β
.......
After walking out of the main hall, Jian Chen found that this place was actually a layout like a courtyard, in the middle was a huge open space, all around were tall halls, each hall was very large, and the hall he was sitting in was one of them, one after another embarrassed contestants walked out of the various halls, and in the middle of the open space, it was already full of people, and in the middle of the crowd, a huge space gate ten meters high flickered with a colorful hazy light standing there, through the space gate, you can vaguely see a huge stone statue and some familiar scenery insideγ
"Jianchen, this way, we are here!" A familiar voice came from afar, and I saw that Ming Dong was waving at him in the distance and shouting, and beside him, Huang Luan and Dugu Feng were all there.
Seeing that several of them were together, Jian Chen's eyes also showed a look of surprise, he originally thought that he and them were randomly teleported to different places, but he didn't expect to meet outside.
Several people quickly converged, and all of them had happy looks on their faces.
"The strength of this mercenary city is too strong, and it has created so many spaces. Ming Dong said with a sigh.
Jian Chen's heart moved, and he said, "Could it be that the place we are in now is still in a space?"
Ming Dong nodded and said, "Yes, now this place is still an independent space, have you seen that space gate, only through this space gate can we truly return to the Tian Yuan Continent." β
Jian Chen didn't show too much surprise, because when he just looked at the scene inside the Space Gate, he knew that he was not in the City of Mercenaries, but what he didn't expect was that the location he was in now was actually an independent space.
"Let's go out of the city, Elder Taishang is probably already waiting outside. Qin Xiao suddenly spoke.
Then, several people walked together to the gate of space, when they came out of the gate of space, they were already standing in the huge square in the center of the mercenary city, not far away, a huge stone statue stood there, carved lifelike, as if a real person was full of supreme charm, his head slightly raised to look at the distant sky, as if he could see through the void and the world.
"Although I was not born in Mo Tianyun's era, I have heard a lot of his legends, back then, Mo Tianyun, the founder of the City of Mercenaries, was invincible in the world, and he was invincible in the whole world, repelling the Bai powerhouses with his own strength, retaining the Tianyuan Continent, and the majesty of the past and the present, but unfortunately he still couldn't resist the erosion of the years!" Dugu Feng looked deeply at the tall stone statue and muttered, his expression complicated.
Huang Luan also took a deep look at Mo Tianyun's statue, and then said to Jian Chen: "I should leave, let's separate, I hope to see you in the final." β
"Take care, and be careful of the stone statues, they are prepared to come this time, and your Uncle Tian and Uncle Yun are probably in trouble. Jian Chen said solemnly.
"It's okay, they don't dare to do it in the City of Mercenaries!" Huang Luan didn't care, took a deep look at Jian Chen, and then turned around and left without looking back.
Jian Chen turned his head to look at Doctor An and Yun Zheng, and arched his hand: "Two, we should also separate, there will be a period later!"
"Wait a minute, Jianchen, I heard Ming Dong say that you seem to have formed a mercenary group, I don't know if Lu Dao is true. Doctor An suddenly spoke, looking at Jian Chen's eyes with blazing eyes.
Hearing this, Jian Chen's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "Yes, I did form a mercenary group, is Doctor An interested in joining us?"
Doctor An smiled, stretched out his hand and wiped his bare head, and said: "Yes, Jianchen, I want to join you, I don't know if you can do it, your strength is so strong, and you are talented, I believe that following you will definitely have a future." β
"Welcome, of course. Jian Chen's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly agreed, then looked at Yun Zheng and said with a smile: "Could it be that Brother Yun Zheng also intends to join us?"
Yun Zheng smiled slightly, and said: "If Brother Jianchen doesn't dislike it, I, Yun Zheng, will follow you in the future, Doctor An is right, I believe that following you will definitely be a lot more beautiful." β
For the two of them to join Jian Chen, he agreed, and now the Flame Mercenary Group is in need of masters, and the addition of the two Earth Saint Masters is crucial to the development of the Mercenary Group.
"Ha Luha, it's okay now, our Flame Mercenary Group has grown a little stronger, I believe we will definitely make the Flame Mercenary Group shine on the Tian Yuan Continent. Ming Dong also smiled with a happy smile.
Then, everyone walked towards the inn together, and they made an agreement with the Taishang Elder of the Tianqin family at the beginning, and after they came out, they went directly to the inn to meet.
Dugu Feng is not with Jian Chen, there are elders of the Dugu family waiting for him, and he must go back.
Jianchen and Mingdong took Dr. An and Yun Zheng back to the inn with He Qinxiao, and as soon as they entered the inn, they saw the Taishang Elder of the Tianqin family sitting at a table waiting, and the table was already full of dishes.
The elder of the Tianqin family swept his gaze lightly over everyone, and when he saw that Qin Xiao and Qin Jue were safe, he couldn't help but show a happy smile on his face, and said, "Come and sit down, I have prepared good wine and food in the morning, and I am waiting for you to return safely." β
This is the first time Jian Chen has seen him smile since he saw the Taishang Elder of the Tianqin Family, and the first time he has spoken so kindly, even Qin Xiao is no exception, for a while, Qin Xiao and Qin Jue both felt a little restrained.
"Elder Taishang is worried. Qin Xiao bowed respectfully, and then walked to the table and sat down at the same time as everyone else.
Suddenly, the Supreme Elder of the Tianqin Clan's expression moved, and his sharp gaze immediately looked at Ming Dong, and the next moment, two essences immediately burst out of his eyes, and he exclaimed, "Six Turns Earth Saint Master!"
