C718 Entering the Palace
After waiting for a while in the Principal's office, Elder Qian came over and brought Shen Xuantong and Gu Feng towards the palace. Along the way, no one spoke. Gu Feng was not familiar with Shen Xuantong. Although the other party was the number one Earth Board, Gu Feng was not interested in him. Furthermore, he could also tell that Shen Xuantong's heart was filled with pride, it did not seem like he had any relationship with Ye Zichen.
Expert at Soul Condensation Stage's speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he had arrived outside the palace. Even those in the Soul Condensation Realm, after entering the boundaries of the Imperial Palace, would drop down from their seats and slowly walk inside.
As he walked along, the majesty and majesty of the royal palace truly shocked him. Although it was not as majestic as the palaces he had seen in the Purgatory Tower, the majesty of the Emperor was equally shocking.
Also, on the road, as they walked, Gu Feng could feel strong auras sweeping over his body. Clearly, those were the experts hidden in the dark to protect the safety of the palace. If someone barged in without permission, they would immediately discover it and give the person a lightning strike.
The location of the preliminaries was deep inside the palace. When Gu Feng and the others finally arrived at the city through the heavy city walls, there were already many forces present. When these people saw Gu Feng and the other two, they lifted their eyes and a trace of light flashed across them. Many people's gazes lingered on Gu Feng for a while before leaving.
After all, the battle a month ago that could change the entire structure of Loongyun Empire was because of him. Everyone wanted to see what kind of youth was capable of instigating a battle between six tyrannical forces.
Gu Feng's gaze swept across the crowd. From the positions of these people, it could be seen that they came from different forces and there were at least a hundred of them. After all, the Hundred Meridians Martial Arts Competitions being held once every thirty years was indeed a grand occasion. Although no disciples were allowed to participate within the forces, some powers and Palace Masters of the Loongyun Empire would still come.
Amongst these people, there were also many youths. Naturally, there were some that had come to participate in the preliminaries, and there were even some that had followed their seniors here for experience. After all, this was a battle between Heaven's Pride with the highest level of Loongyun Empire.
Among the crowd, Gu Feng was especially interested in a young man in white clothes. Although there was no tyrannical spiritual energy fluctuation on the young man's body, when Gu Feng looked at this person, his soul throbbed. It was obvious that this person's soul force was extremely powerful. At least a level stronger than him. Otherwise, it would definitely not be able to cause his soul to throb.
The young man in white seemed to have sensed something and slightly raised his head. He looked at Gu Feng and gave him a friendly smile. Gu Feng also responded with a smile.
"There really aren't any simple characters that can participate in the selection." Gu Feng took a deep breath and said.
"It doesn't seem to be that bad. He's only at the fourth level of the Soul Forging. I really don't understand why the Holy Martial Academy would protect him so much." While Gu Feng was sizing up the crowd, a lot of gazes were also sizing up the crowd. A young man clad in dark green said in disdain.
His face was quite handsome. However, there was an unconcealable pride between his brows. Clearly, he was also the sort of person who prided himself on his talent and prided himself on being a genius.
"This kid is not simple. If it's not necessary later on, do not provoke him." An old man next to him stared at Gu Feng. He frowned and said to the dark green young man.
The young man dressed in dark green grinned, he didn't say anything and continued to size up Gu Feng without restraint.
And after Gu Feng and the others, there were also quite a few powers who came over. Amongst them, Eight Major Sects, the Four Great Clans and the others were naturally the focus of attention.
"Heh, I didn't expect that no one from Snow Cold Palace would come this time. "It seems like they plan to give up." When almost everyone had arrived, the crowd naturally discovered something unusual. That Snow Cold Palace did not send anyone here like in the past.
Many people sneered in low voices, and said: "Snow Cold Palace? Would they dare to come now? They are currently suffering from internal and external troubles and are already unable to protect themselves. It might not be too long before their Loongyun Empire is removed from their bodies and they will not be able to do so either. "
Snow Cold Palace colluding with Golden Wolf Clan caused the other three forces in the Loongyun Empire to be rather dissatisfied. If not for the fact that Holy Martial Academy did not make any move after this incident, it was likely that they would have also been unable to hold back and beaten the crap out of them.
"Gu Feng, what do you think about these people?" Elder Qian, who was standing beside Gu Feng, asked softly.
Gu Feng's gaze swept across the contestants and said calmly: "It's alright."
It's okay, it's alright. Among these people, although there are five or six people who have reached the fifth level of the Soul Forging, the majority of the others have the cultivation of the fourth level of the Soul Forging. However, many of them were lacking in spiritual energy, and it was obvious that they had used pills to increase their spiritual energy levels. Even if such a person passed the selection, and met with people from other empires and powers in the Hundred Meridians Martial Arts Competitions, he would be defeated. It was because that was the gathering place for the truly top-notch Heaven's Pride s.
"Bullsh * t." At the front, a few people heard Gu Feng's words and were stunned. A hint of disdain flashed across their eyes.
Gu Feng smiled indifferently and did not argue with him. Everything was decided by strength when the time came for the selection.
"Everyone is here." A loud laughter came from outside. It was a loud and majestic laughter. Other than Expert at Soul Condensation Stage, who was like Elder Qian, the others' expressions instantly became serious.
"Emperor Dragoncloud has arrived."
Elder Qian's voice entered Gu Feng's ears. Only then did he understand why so many Soul Forging Realm experts were so solemn and respectful.
Very quickly, dozens of figures entered. Behind them were a group of soldiers dressed in black armor. And in the middle of these people, an imposing middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe walked in. It was Fenng Yun.
Looking at Fenng Yun, Gu Feng was slightly stunned. This Emperor Long Yun was actually somewhat similar to Fenng Wuji. However, there was an additional aura of a king around his body. He looked bold and powerful, but his eyes shone with an unfathomable light. Furthermore, Fenng Yun did not have Fenng Wuji's killing intent and decisiveness.
"Monarch."
Other than Eight Major Sects and Expert at Soul Condensation Stage of the four families, everyone else bowed in respect.1
"Haha, there's no need to be so polite. Please excuse me." Fenng Yun waved his hand and a gentle force helped everyone up. Gu Feng narrowed his eyes slightly. This Fenng Yun was indeed very powerful. It was at least a cultivation of Eighth Level of Soul Forging Stage.
