C2129 The First Draw

The two of them took Ye Hongtian out of the alley and said they were going to arrange a new place for him, and the new place was in the Dark City Lord's Mansion.

Along the way, the Lan Family elders told Ye Hongtian the details of the competition between the Dark City Lord and Ye Hongtian. The information that Ye Hong Tian bought from the intelligence dealer was basically the same, which made Ye Hong Tian admire the intelligence dealer's ability to gather information.

After arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, Ye Hongtian was brought to the guest area where the City Lord's Mansion welcomed guests. The rooms here were basically empty. Ye Hongtian randomly picked a room and the strong man quickly found the key.

After Ye Hong Tian entered the room, he pretended that he had never seen the market before. His mouth was wide open as he kept looking around. When he saw something shining, he wanted to take a second look.

The Lan Family martial artists and the strong man also nodded in satisfaction when they saw Ye Hong Tian's reaction. Then, they chatted with Ye Hong Tian in the room for a while before leaving.

The competition for the Dark City's City Lord would start when the sun set. It was only noon now. Ye Hong Tian had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he stayed in the room to observe the green deviant fire in his body.

He had absorbed the 'Purple Qi' every day in East Ocean City during that time. So, the suppression of the 'Heavenly Flame' had increased a little. So, it shouldn't be a problem for him to fight with an expert of the initial stage of the semi-sage realm now. However, he wouldn't be able to fight if the opponent was also very strong. He would have to fight for a long time.

"'Before I have time to go to the Xuan Sea and look for the Temple of Xuan Mountain, I can only rely on practicing sword techniques every morning to absorb the purple qi to strengthen the suppression. I can only pray that nothing happens during this period of time that forced me to use my full strength. Luckily, Senior Chu is still by my side. " Ye Hong Tian laid on the bed and muttered to himself.

The array that Ye Hongtian had set up here did not allow Chu Shikun to hide in the dark. He revealed himself and sat cross-legged on a rock beside him to cultivate.

That rock was not an ordinary rock. It was a special kind of jade that could speed up the flow of true essence within one's body. It could not be said to be precious, but it was not cheap to buy a piece of it.

"Young Hall Master, if it is not convenient for you to make a move, I will immediately kill anyone who threatens you. You can rest assured about that."

"This... It is better not to. Although I have killed a lot of people, it is better not to kill unless I have no other choice. It is better to leave a trace for the future."

"I think you must have heard this from the people you killed in the past. Have you let them go?"

... ""

After Chu Shikun's question, Ye Hongtian decisively chose to remain silent. He closed his eyes and continued to look into his internal space. Chu Shikun ended the topic just like that.

The sun began to set. Ye Hongtian's door was knocked on. Chu Shikun, who was on the jade stone, instantly hid in the dark.

Ye Hongtian, who was on the bed, withdrew his inner sight and walked to the door. He first removed the array before opening the door. Outside the door was a young man who was only as tall as Ye Hongtian's shoulder. Although he looked very young, however, he was indeed an expert of the initial stage of the semi-sage realm.

"The elder has asked me to bring you to the place where the City Lord Competition is taking place. Come with me." The young man spoke with an expressionless face.

The young man's tone was emotionless, which made Ye Hong Tian feel strange. However, he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, he might be a strange person to the young man.

After arriving at the Martial Training Field of the City Lord's Mansion, the number of people gathered here was much greater than during the day. A candidate needed to choose three martial artists as their team members. If a candidate was a candidate, then there would be at least 30 people. Thus, there were at least 40 people here.

The youth leading the way quickly found the position of the Lan Family's Elder and led Ye Hong Tian over. Just like that, the four people of the Lan Family's Elder's team were all present.

A moment later, the fake Dark City Master clapped his hands and attracted everyone's attention. He then explained the rules of the City Lord Competition in detail.

Then, he took out something that looked like a compass from his Cosmos Sack. He walked to the center of the training field and placed the compass on the ground. After chanting a few incantations, a portal appeared on top of the compass.

"Next, we will draw lots. The team with the same number will compete. The order will be based on the number on the number plate." The fake Dark City Lord spoke again when everyone was surprised by the portal in front of them.

Everyone followed the rules stated by the fake Dark City Lord and went to the wooden box that they had prepared earlier to draw the number plate. This wooden box drawing the number plate did not mean that they were going to take it. The number card would come out from the hole as long as a trace of true essence was poured into it.

The Blue Family Elder ordered the youth to draw the number card. A moment later, the youth returned with a number card with a 'one' engraved on it.

"Trash! Who asked you to draw the number one! Now, aren't we going to fight the first match? "

As the number plate with the number one sign was the first team to go on stage, the blue veins on the Lan family's elder's forehead were exposed due to anger. As he shouted at the young man, he kicked him to the ground.

Ye Hong Tian was very surprised by this scene. Previously, when the Lan family's elder invited him to join the team, it could be said that he was begging for it. If Ye Hong Tian did not want to participate in the City Lord Competition, then even if these two people used force, he wouldn't come either.

But now, the young man who was curled up on the ground clutching his stomach was a little strange. He was constantly being held by the Lan Family's elder. There was only pain on his face, but he did not want to leave the team.

"Elder, please calm down. Drawing numbers relies on luck. He's just a bit unlucky. If you continue to kick him like this... I'm afraid he won't be able to participate in the competition later " Ye Hong Tian saw that the young man had already been kicked to the point of vomiting blood, so he immediately tried to persuade the Lan Family elder.2

The Lan Family elder glanced at Ye Hong Tian when he heard that. It seemed that Ye Hong Tian was very unhappy that he had stopped Ye Hong Tian, but perhaps he also considered that there would be a competition for the City Lord later, so he didn't continue to attack the young man on the ground.

Seeing that the Lan family's elder had stopped, Ye Hong Tian heaved a sigh of relief and helped the young man up. He wanted to take some high quality healing pills to treat his opponent's injuries, but before he could take the pills out, the young man threw his hand away.

The young man didn't accept his good intentions, so Ye Hong Tian couldn't do anything about it. He took out the pill from his Qiankun bag and stood quietly behind the elder. He was waiting for the fake City Lord of the Dark City to announce the start of the competition.

Ye Hong Tian didn't have to wait for long. After everyone drew their number plates, the fake Dark City Lord announced the start of the first competition.

As the first team, Ye Hongtian and the others immediately arrived at the portal. The candidate who was competing with them was also a middle-stage semi-sage expert. However, the quality of the other three team members was higher than that of the elders of the Lan Family. All three of them were at the middle-stage of the semi-sage realm.
