Tianyuan Dynasty.
The overlord of the time.
Even if it is taken out alone, it can compete with the great Shang and empires among the six poles of the world.
Not to mention the Star Alliance, Sun Alliance, and the Thirty-Six Kingdoms of the East China Sea, which are also alliances.
As one of the few developed countries, the Tianyuan Dynasty's economy and per capita income are not inferior to those of the Taibai Kingdom.
Its population itself is a staggering 600 million.
Twice as large as the Taibai Kingdom.
The combined population of these two countries accounts for nearly half of the entire Tianyuan Federation, which shows the level of development and livability of these two countries.
Of course, the two countries have different definitions of "livable".
Taibai focuses on peace and prosperity for the country and the people.
Tianyuan’s first choice is a strong country.
Speaking of dangerous areas in the country, the situation in Tianyuan is much more severe than that in Taibai.
Especially in the north of Tianyuan, there is an area of more than two million square kilometers of mountains and valleys, which is filled with countless monsters, which has occupied most of the energy of the Tianyuan Dynasty and even the entire Tianyuan Federation.
To this end, led by the Tianyuan Dynasty, the Tianyuan Federation established the largest fortress complex on Gaia in that area - the Demon Sealing Fortress!
There are tens of thousands of Star Refiners stationed there at all times to fight against and eliminate the monsters inside.
This is also an important basis for maintaining balance between the Tianyuan Dynasty and other countries in the Federation.
As the train pulled into the station, an official from the Tianyuan Dynasty Martial Arts Association personally led people to greet them on the battle stage. In order to show their respect for Prince Su Mai, a star refiner also accompanied them.
Within the Tianyuan Federation, Taibai and Tianyuan have the best relationship. To some extent, Taibai belongs to Tianyuan's back garden and money bag, so the two sides get along quite harmoniously.
The group soon arrived at the martial arts village outside the martial arts association, which was built specifically for the world's number one martial arts competition.
The village covers an area of more than 100,000 square meters, with villas and courtyards built and arranged in different areas according to different countries.
There are six courtyards and villas in the area where Taibai is located. The area of each villa is no smaller than Li Bin’s residence in Jiangzhou City. Not only can the rooms easily accommodate ten or eight people, but there is also a special training room.
As for Lian Hongchen, Cao Tianyou and others who will accompany him to the capital to cheer for Li Bin...
I can only find a place to live by myself.
At this time, although there are still five days before the official opening of the World's No. 1 Martial Arts Competition, there are many national teams that share the same idea as them and come here in advance to adapt to the environment.
The martial arts village, which was originally known as a quiet place, was now crowded with warriors coming and going, and each of them was in high spirits and looked as vigorous as a dragon or a tiger.
Li Bin and others put down their luggage and rested for a while, then Su Feiyu appeared at the door.
"May I come inside?"
Li Pin glanced at her.
It had been less than an hour since we last separated, but she had already changed her clothes.
She wore a thin and soft gauze dress over a pink long skirt. The gilded corset outlined her perfect waistline. Her figure was so good that it was a bit unfair.
In particular, although this princess practices martial arts, she is not like Li Yunyao, who cannot distinguish right from wrong. Although she cannot reach Lin Xiaolu's level, she can still make people involuntarily look at the golden flame pendant under her fair collarbone.
If she were to endorse pendants, necklaces, and belts...
It can definitely become a hit easily.
Li Yin couldn't help but take a look.
If he's not mistaken...
Is that a star weapon
You know, if a star tool is not kept in a special way, the energy of its core part - the star crystal - will dissipate all the time. According to the casting craftsmanship, if it is not properly maintained, some star tools that are barely cast will be scrapped in ten days or half a month because the power of the star crystal has been completely lost.
The Sixth Princess treats star tools as decorations. It must be said that being born into a royal family is a sign of generosity.
"Come in."
Li Yin said.
"How is it? Are you getting used to it?"
Su Feiyu said.
"Fortunately, although Taibai King's capital is 4,000 kilometers away from Tianyuan King's capital, the climate and culture of the two countries are not much different."
Li Pin said.
"That's good. If you feel uncomfortable or have any problems, please let us know. Don't let it affect your performance during the game."
"A warrior can hold his qi and form a pill. His body functions are beyond the reach of ordinary people, so he won't suffer from acclimatization problems just because of the change of place."
Li Yin said with a smile.
If a warrior is really so fragile that he can't withstand even the slightest change, then it can only prove that...
He still has a lot to do.
"That's true, but it's always a good idea to be careful."
After Su Feiyu finished speaking, she smiled and said, "I have been here several times with my brother, so I am familiar with this area. Do you want to go out for a walk and meet the contestants from other countries?"
"Okay, okay, let's take some photos. I never thought that I would be able to come directly to the world's number one martial arts competition. I must record my experience for a month."
Before Li Pin opened his mouth, Li Yunyao jumped out impatiently.
Su Feiyu glanced at Li Yunyao...
Why should a mere first-level warrior be so excited
But at this time, Li Yin smiled and said to Li Yunyao: "If you like it, go and have a look."
After saying that, he turned to Su Feiyu and said, "Thank you, Sixth Prince."
“It should be.”
Su Feiyu responded with a slightly unnatural expression.
But thinking of the relationship between Li Yunyao and Li Pin, she smiled again, smoothed her hair, and went to meet Li Yunyao: "Let's go, if you want to take pictures, you can't miss the world's best sculpture group. This is the most representative attraction. I'll take you there."
"Uh-huh."
Li Yunyao nodded repeatedly and turned to Lin Xiaolu and Qin Rouran at the same time: "Are you going or not?"
"I...want to clean something up."
Lin Xiaolu has a heavy burden and obviously does not have as much energy as Li Yunyao.
As for Qin Rouran...
She took out her phone and started watching videos. When she heard Li Yunyao's question, she looked up in confusion. It was not until Li Yunyao repeated it again that she shook her head and said, "I want to lie on the bed."
Seeing this, Li Yunyao did not force it.
The group of three quickly hailed a sightseeing bus and headed for the park at the entrance of the village.
Along the way, Li Bin kept looking at the people coming and going.
Although less than one-tenth of these pedestrians are contestants, even the assistants who follow them are basically skilled in martial arts.
It is not uncommon to see people practicing Dan and Lian Gang, which are rarely seen on weekdays. From time to time, you can see martial arts masters chatting and laughing with friends on the roadside.
"After changing the map, it's really true that holding Dan is worse than a dog, and practicing Gang is everywhere."
Li Yunyao muttered softly.
Su Feiyu, who was standing by, smiled and said, "This statement is not correct. It's just that the class you live in is the one you come into contact with. Especially during the World's No. 1 Martial Arts Competition, we were in the Martial Arts Village, and we naturally came into contact with the essence of the more than 2 billion people in Tianyuan. Strong people naturally emerged in an endless stream. Just like when a meeting of all nobles was held, you would find that the worst attendees were barons, and there were hundreds of earls and marquises. But can you say that barons have no influence in the local area?"
Li Yunyao nodded: "It seems to be true..."
Soon, the group arrived at Celebrity Park.
There are more than thirty statues in the park.
Among them, the previous champions of the youth group are stone statues, while those of the adult group are bronze statues.
Each one is several meters high and looks quite spectacular.
"Let me introduce you."
Su Feiyu came to one of the stone statues and said, "This is the champion of the first World Martial Arts Tournament, Cheng Long."
She briefly introduced the contestant's deeds.
Li Yunyao also took out her cell phone and took a few photos.
"Do you need help?"
Su Feiyu said with a smile.
"OK."
Li Yunyao agreed readily.
Unlike Li Bin who just took a bunch of random shots, Su Feiyu had obviously taken professional photography courses. She only asked Li Yunyao to slightly change her position and movements, and the final result was good enough to be used as a movie poster.
Li Yunyao only took a few glances and immediately fell in love with it.
"Sister Feiyu, you are so good at taking photos."
"No, it's because Yaoyao you are beautiful and have a good foundation, otherwise I can't take such an effect."
Su Feiyu smiled slightly.
Just because of a photo shoot, the relationship between the two quickly developed rapidly, and they called each other sister and sister affectionately.
However, Li Pin ignored it and looked at the information of the youth group champions one by one.
From the first session, we soon saw the fifteenth session.
At this point, he seemed to realize something: "The first World No. 1 Martial Arts Competition attracted a lot of attention and had many participants. The champion was a Martial Saint. In the second competition, the champion was a quasi-Martial Saint. In the third competition, the champion was a Grand Master... Until the sixth competition, a Martial Saint appeared again... In the next fifteen competitions, only four of them had Martial Saints?"
Li Yin took a closer look at the champions from the second to fifth sessions and said, "Isn't it said that the competition in the first stage of the World Martial Arts Tournament is very fierce?"
“It’s true that there is a lot of competition, but … times have changed.”
Su Feiyu said: "Many people think that more martial saints were born during the turbulent times because of the bad environment, and that the martial saints of that era were also stronger, but in fact, this is not the case. Tianyuan Society has a set of data... Although a lot of data was lost during the turbulent period decades ago and is not accurate, according to the data, during the first martial arts competition, the number of martial saints in the federation was less than 30% of today's."
"30%?"
"Yes! Not half! One third!"
Su Feiyu looked at the statues and said, "The times are progressing, martial arts are developing, and we have not stood still! In the first Century King Battle, due to historical accumulation, the peak number of participants was eighty-three, but in the second, there were only sixty-two. But in the previous battle... there were as many as one hundred and twenty-eight Ultimate Martial Saints participating."
"Martial Arts Great Prosperity?"
"Because of the existence of ferocious beasts and monsters, humanity's status as the dominant power is in jeopardy. We have no choice but to embark on a journey again and compete with all creatures for freedom. This is the worst era!"
Su Feiyu's eyes sparkled with brilliance: "But... the advent of the Star God has brought about changes that have not changed in ten thousand years, and it has also reopened the direction of evolution for us. Animals are evolving, plants are evolving, humans are evolving, and all major professions and systems among humans are also evolving! The difficulty of achieving a Martial Saint sixty years ago is completely different from the difficulty of achieving a Martial Saint now!"
"Evolution..."
Li Yin recited this word.
"This is also the best era for us warriors who fight against the sky, the earth, and people!"
Su Feiyu said, looking at Li Yin: "So... you, we, don't want to go and see how wonderful the scenery at the end of the martial arts is?"
