The black warship was flying rapidly among the clouds at four times the speed of sound.
Two hours later, in everyone's field of vision, the outline of a city appeared in front of them.
This is a city completely built on the water. It is vast and majestic, with tall and thick city walls.
It looks simple and heavy. On top of the city, six ancient magic cannons stand on it every ten meters.
Taking a closer look, there are actually more than 3,000 magic cannons on the city wall that stretches for more than 2,000 meters, and there are countless large and small holes in the city wall.
Under the entrance of the cave, there are also ancient magic cannons. In total, there are ten thousand magic cannons.
Under the blast of thousands of cannons, even the peak Martial Emperor might have fallen on the spot, which makes people shudder just thinking about it.
The eighteen city gates ahead were opened. Under the main city gate, countless ships were entering and exiting in an orderly manner. In front of the city gate, rows of guards were flying across the water.
As if walking on flat ground, he came and went, controlling the order at the city gate.
The black warship descended slowly and did not fly directly over the city wall. Xiao Chen took a look and found that there were merchant ships or birds traveling around.
He also lowered his height and fell towards the water. It seemed that this deserted city did not allow any warships or spiritual beasts to fly over his head.
Snapped!
The warship landed on the surface of Tianmie Lake, with layers of water splashing on both sides, and slowly sailed towards the main city gate.
The surrounding ships and the warriors who controlled the spiritual beasts all gave way when they saw the flag on the warship.
The guards in front of the city gate on the water also glanced at the people on the bow of the ship and ignored them.
There is no need to pay the city entry tax, and you can go straight through without any hindrance.
Passing through the tunnel under the city wall, everyone's sight suddenly widened. Countless pedestrians were passing by on the streets on both sides of the river bank.
There were warriors from various countries, as well as warriors from the demon clan, numerous and numerous, making it seem very lively.
The surrounding buildings are all majestic and still maintain the characteristics of the Tianwu Dynasty, making people feel as if they have traveled thousands of years ago.
"Is this a deserted city?" On the deck, leaders from all over the world sighed.
Other warriors, including Xiao Chen, also looked around curiously. At this moment, a giant ship with several floors in front appeared in front of everyone.
It can no longer be described as a boat, it is simply a mobile castle traveling on the water.
On the bow of the ship, there are three golden flags with flying dragons and phoenixes, and the three characters "Baoyue Tower" are written in broad strokes.
Xia Xiyan, who was next to Xiao Chen, said: "This is Baoyue Tower, the largest auction house in the deserted city. A large-scale auction is held every month."
Xiao Chen exclaimed softly and said, "Have you ever been to Huangcheng?"
Xia Xiyan nodded and said: "I have been here several times. There are many good things in Baoyue Tower. There will definitely be no shortage of fist and kick secrets that you want to find."
Xiao Chen said strangely: "How did you know that I was looking for the secret book of boxing and kicking?"
Xiao Chen's fists and kicks are actually not weak. The intermediate level boxing skills are enough to deal with most warriors of the same level, but they are slightly inferior among the geniuses of the same generation.
Among their peers, who has reached their level and has not learned high-level earth-level martial arts, or even top-level earth-level martial arts.
Xia Xiyan smiled and said: "Everyone can see that if you improve your skills with fists and kicks, and cooperate with your physical body without using a sword, you might be able to be on par with Shi Feng."
Xiao Chen was relieved. After watching so many of his fights, Xia Xiyan was not surprised to see a little suspicion.
"It's a pity that in Baoyue Tower, a real large-scale auction will only be held once every six months, and only then will there be real top treasures."
"If you are in a hurry to get some martial arts skills like fists and kicks, you can go to the ancient underground market. There are people from all walks of life there, so you may not be able to find good things."
Xia Xiyan kept talking and introduced a lot to Xiao Chen. The things in the deserted city opened Xiao Chen's eyes.
Rivers crisscrossed the deserted city, and the black warship followed the river. After twists and turns, it stopped at a bank.
Li Xiuzhu came out of the cabin and led everyone ashore to lead the way. Half an hour later, he led everyone to stop in front of a square.
On the high platform in the center of the square stands a statue hundreds of meters high. Holding a long sword in his hand and pointing angrily at the sky, it is none other than the Tianwu Emperor who founded the Tianwu Dynasty. It is unknown how long the statue has stood there.
A simple and mighty atmosphere came from above, permeating the entire square. Everyone walking in the middle could feel an inexplicable solemnity.
Around the statue, there are about a dozen solid arenas arranged neatly, and at the foot of the statue, many people have gathered together.
A deputy next to Li Xiuzhu introduced: "The second round of the arena battle will be held in Tianwu Square. The specific date has not been determined."
"But don't worry, I know that your successive battles will require more or less adjustment, and they won't be held anytime soon."
After everyone heard this, they felt a little relieved. They had fought a hundred battles in six days, and they were all high-intensity battles. Without enough time to rest, it would be difficult to return to peak condition.
The crowd at the foot of the statue gathered in three groups. If nothing unexpected happened, they should be the leaders from the other three groups of islands who had passed the first round of candidates.
Xiao Chen looked at the three groups of people and glanced slightly, with a slightly surprised look on his face. Duan Muqing, Ji Changkong, Chu Chaoyun, Mu Chengxue, and Hua Yunfei were all there too.
The current strength of these five people is actually that of a middle-grade Martial King, but after thinking about it, Xiao Chen doesn't care very much.
If he hadn't practiced heaven-level skills, he would have consumed a large amount of heavenly materials and earthly treasures when he passed the test, resulting in a base number that was too large.
Now that his cultivation level has reached the top level of Martial King, there should be no big surprise, and cultivation level has never been all about combat effectiveness.
Unless there is a big gap, for example, Xiao Chen is now facing the Half-Step Martial Emperor, even the weakest Half-Step Martial Emperor is no match.
Seeing the arrival of Xiao Chen and others, the other players all looked over.
"I heard that someone on Longyang Island has won a hundred consecutive games. I wonder who it is?"
"It's really not that simple. Zuo Mo from the Beast Taming Studio is so powerful. On the Northern Islands, he only won seventy consecutive games and ended with a draw."
"One of the three great masters of Ten Thousand Demons Palace, Chu Tomb, has only won sixty games in a row. This guy actually won a hundred games in a row. It's really not easy."
The crowd began to talk quietly, and they were all a little curious about this player who had won 100 wins.
Hua Yunfei glanced around, his face suddenly changed, and he said to Mu Chengxue and Ji Changkong next to him: "Look over there, who is coming?"
Several people looked over quickly and found Xiao Chen standing in the crowd wearing a white robe with a calm expression.
Ji Changkong clenched his fists tightly, and the knuckles banged loudly. His eyes were even more gloomy, and he said coldly: "Okay, I came just in time. The humiliation I gave you that day will be repaid to you a hundred times today."
Mu Chengxue's face didn't look good either. She sensed Xiao Chen's cultivation and said a little strangely: "He seems to have only the cultivation of a low-grade Martial King, right? How come he was invited to participate in the ancient tower competition."
Hua Yunfei sneered: "You must have come in because of your connections. It just happened that we were fighting in this ring, so he showed his true colors."
Half a year ago, in the battle at Tiandao Pavilion, Xiao Chen single-handedly defeated everyone in front of the major forces in the Qin State and became famous in one fell swoop.
For these people, who have been regarded as the proud sons of heaven in Da Qin since they were young, it is undoubtedly not a great shame.
More importantly, earlier, in front of them, Xiao Chen was just a small character who could be killed with just a pinch.
But a year later, it swept everyone away. No one would be reconciled to such a huge gap.
On the contrary, Duanmu Qing's eyes looked very calm, without much fluctuation.
After the battle at Tiandao Pavilion, as she said, the grievances between her and Xiao Chen were over. Being obsessed with each other would only make her mood more unstable.
Chu Chaoyun didn't hear everyone's conversation at all. He was looking straight at the statue of Emperor Tianwu with an unpredictable expression on his face.
call out!
At this moment, several old men fell down from the high platform. Their clothes were the same as Li Xiuzhu's, but with two more gold threads on the collar, they were obviously of a higher level.
The leader glanced around, and an invisible coercion emitted, and the scene suddenly became quiet.
"The second round of candidates is scheduled for ten days. I hope everyone will gather here by then. If you miss the appointment then, you will be considered to have given up your qualifications."
Next, the old man briefly explained the rules of the ring battle. In two days, everyone will fight thirty times.
Fifteen games a day, the winner gets two points, the loser gets two points, and a draw gets one point each.
Opponents are drawn completely randomly, and the top twenty scorers after the arena battle will be qualified to enter the Ancient Tower.
