Early the next morning, it was just dawn.
After Chen Xi and Mu Kui washed up, they left the inn. At this moment, Qingzhou City is already crowded with people. Countless monks are walking through the spacious streets, like a black torrent, converging in the same direction.
There was no need to ask for directions. Chen Xi followed the crowd and arrived at the center of Qingzhou City. There was a lake covering an area of thousands of miles. At this moment, a huge venue had been built on the lake, with eighteen arenas standing on it.
This venue covers the entire lake and is large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people watching the battle. It is paved with hard basalt steel, and the surface is covered with countless defensive formations laid out by the Talisman Master, which is enough to block the attacks of the Netherworld monks.
The eighteen arenas are also extremely hard and are used for competitions. There is no need to worry about power leakage or collapse.
At this moment, the entire venue was already crowded with people. As far as the eye could see, they were filled with black heads. The noisy sound spread into the sky, causing the clouds to scatter.
"Hmph, so what if you pass the first round of one-on-one competition? For most experts, it may be easy to win ten consecutive victories, and twenty consecutive victories are also possible. Thirty consecutive victories will not be so easy."
"Indeed, as he wins more and more times, his moves, cultivation, martial arts realm, and fighting habits are all clearly understood. Another master of the same level will be enough to defeat him."
"So, wouldn't it be too difficult to achieve a hundred consecutive victories?"
"It's not just difficult, it's even harder than climbing to the sky. I heard some older generation monks say that it would be great if there were two or three hundred-game winning streaks in previous Jinchi Conferences."
"Ah, I heard that monks who achieve a hundred consecutive victories are enough to be among the top 100 at the Stars Conference a year later. Based on this calculation, aren't the monks who can achieve the top 100 at the Stars Conference all a bunch of perverts?"
"Who says it isn't? After all, the most indispensable thing in this world is genius."
While queuing up and listening to everyone's discussion, Chen Xi didn't feel a single wave of emotion in his heart. His goal was by no means limited to the Golden Pool Conference or the Star Conference, and these words had no impact on his state of mind at all.
Soon, Chen Xi followed the entrance passage and entered the Golden Pool Conference venue.
Looking around, the eighteen arenas were surrounded by an arched auditorium in the center. At this moment, the auditorium was already filled with a dark crowd, and the noise and discussion reached into the sky, deafening.
Chen Xi arrived not too late, but the seats in the front and middle were already occupied, leaving only the most remote seats empty.
The location here is actually very particular. With a good location, you can see the competition in the ring in all directions, and you will not miss any highlights. You also have the opportunity to learn many useful things, such as combat skills, combat strategies, etc. wait.
However, Chen Xi didn't care about this. He looked around and was about to find a remote place to sit down when he suddenly saw a woman waving to him from the seat in front.
This woman was dressed in black, with dark eyebrows and starry eyes, skin as snow, and a charming face. There was a hint of confidence and wisdom between her smooth and round eyebrows. She was Miss Yaqing from Tianbao Tower.
"Why are you here too?" Chen Xi walked over and asked in surprise.
"Am I only allowed to come here? Sit down quickly." Yaqing pointed to the empty seat next to her, as if it was specially reserved for Chen Xi.
"Master, please take a seat. I'll just find another empty seat." Mu Kui was quite discerning. Before he could finish his words, he had already disappeared into the crowd.
Chen Xi naturally sat down unceremoniously, looked around, and said with a smile: "This is a good location. It is in the center and has a broad field of vision. It is enough to clearly see the details of the competition on the eighteen stages."
Having said this, he turned around and asked, "By the way, are you participating in the competition too?"
"No, I was just passing by here to take a look, and then I bumped into you. Do you think it was a coincidence?" Yaqing said with a slight smile, her lips slightly pursed, her teeth half exposed, looking charming.
"It's indeed a coincidence." Chen Xi nodded.
"So, this is called fate. God arranged for me to meet you, and no one can change it." Ya Qing looked directly at Chen Xi, her starry eyes flashing, and her meaning was unclear.
"Ahem." On the other side of Yaqing, Xin Huan, who had an ordinary appearance and a dull expression, couldn't help but cough dryly after hearing these words, and secretly cursed in his heart, "This woman doesn't even have the eyesight to tell lies. In the blink of an eye, no one knew who knew that Chen Xi was attending the Golden Pool Conference, so he rushed here all night long... "
Chen Xi was a little overwhelmed. He felt that this sentence contained too many meanings and could easily lead to wild imaginations, so he could only change the topic, looked at Xin Huan in surprise, and said, "Who is this?"
"Oh, one of my guards, just pretend he doesn't exist." Yaqing said with a smile, but her eyes glared at Xin Huan without any trace, as if she blamed him for disturbing her "good deeds".
Chen Xi smiled and said no more. How could he not see that this ordinary-looking middle-aged man was actually a hidden master? But Yaqing didn't say anything, so he couldn't ask more questions.
"Your opponent in the first round is a man named Qiu Yan. This guy is so hateful. He said bad things about you at Qionghua Restaurant last night. You must teach him a lesson." Yaqing said with a smile: "Besides, I bet one hundred thousand Ning Ying Dan on you, if you lose, you have to compensate me!"
Chen Xi said in astonishment: "I don't think I asked you to bet on me, right?"
"Then what you mean is that you won't compensate me if you lose?" Yaqing bit her lips and said pitifully.
"I will compensate you, of course." Chen Xi sighed. He was speechless. What happened to this woman? How can I think of a normal person? He is just like a coquettish child.
"Are you sure you want to compensate me?" Yaqing deliberately emphasized the word "compensate" very hard.
"Compensate!" Chen Xi didn't hear it at all and nodded.
"Willingly?"
"Willingly." Chen Xi had a headache and asked doubtfully: "You...what's wrong?"
"I'm very happy to know that you are willing to accompany me." Yaqing chuckled, her starry eyes blinked, and her charming and charming style made everyone nearby stunned and distracted.
Chen Xi immediately realized what he was saying, and there was an inexplicable fluctuation in Gujing Bubo's heart. This feeling made him a little uncomfortable, and he hesitated to speak. He really didn't know what to say.
"Hey, Chen Xi, you are here too, what a coincidence." At this moment, a quiet tinkling voice came from the ear, and immediately a man wearing a light blue dress, blue hair in a bun, with picturesque eyebrows and a face A beautiful woman, Yingying, came over.
"Miss Zhen?" Chen Xi said in surprise. This woman was none other than Zhen Liuqing. She had met him once when they were in the Qianyuan Treasure House, but because they were not familiar with each other, they had never communicated with each other. We were strangers, but he didn't expect that she would take the initiative to say hello to him.
What particularly surprised Chen Xi was that Zhen Liuqing actually sat down on the right side of him. There was originally a monk sitting here, but at this time, there was no trace of him.
In this way, Chen Xi had Ya Qing on his left and Zhen Liuqing on his right, forming a situation of hugging each other. They were two beautiful women with different temperaments, but they were both stunning beauties. This scene aroused countless envious and jealous looks from all around. Those looks wanted to kill Chen Xi, and then take the top spot in his place... "Zhen Liuqing in Yange Pavilion, Donghai Sea?" On the other side, Yaqing closed her black hair around her ears and recovered. That graceful and confident look.
"Oh, you recognize me?" Zhen Liuqing said slightly surprised.
"If I didn't recognize you, I would have driven you away long ago." Yaqing smiled lightly, and she didn't know if she was joking or saying it on purpose.
Zhen Liuqing was stunned for a moment, then said with a dumb smile: "I have the same experience as you now, but I know Chen Xi, so I didn't do this."
"Oh, it seems that we have the same idea." Yaqing said in surprise.
"It's different." Zhen Liuqing explained seriously: "You know me, so you don't dare to blow me away, and I know Chen Xi, so I don't blow you away. There is a huge difference between the two understandings."
"You think I don't dare to do this?" Yaqing said with a leisurely smile.
"Do you dare?" Zhen Liuqing asked.
It’s full of gunpowder!
Listening to the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two women, Chen Xi felt quite baffled. Why did he choke for no reason? Did something unpleasant happen between the two of them before
That's not right. Listening to Yaqing's tone, it was obvious that she had no interaction with Zhen Liuqing before.
Is it because of...himself
Chen Xi was startled by his ridiculous idea and quickly gathered his thoughts, looking at his nose and nose, like an old monk. In this kind of confrontation between two women, it would be better for him not to interfere.
However, whatever you don't want to happen happens, and the next moment, Yaqing pointed the finger at Chen Xi and asked with a smile: "Chen Xi, do you think I dare to do this?"
Chen Xi secretly sighed in his heart. He came to participate in the Golden Pool Conference today, not to be a referee... "I'll answer you for him." Zhen Liuqing glanced at Chen Xi and said, "He must be thinking of a way to get the best of both worlds. This Maybe you don’t want to hear the answer.”
"Who asked you to answer?" At this moment, Ya Qing finally became angry and glared at Zhen Liuqing. The next moment, her eyes were directed at Chen Xi, "I just want to hear what you said."
Chen Xi thought about it again and again, and then said slowly: "This is the second time Miss Zhen and I have met, and the first time we have spoken."
The answer was not what was asked, but in Yaqing's ears, the shame and anger on her face disappeared, and she became energetic and radiant.
Next to her, Zhen Liuqing looked calm and calm, but her eyes were slightly dim.
"Of course, this is also the second time that Miss Yaqing and I have met." Chen Xi did not look at Yaqing's face and said to himself: "Okay, I have finished saying what I need to say. It's time to go to the competition. Well, then The monk who is presiding over the ring competition is calling my name."
With that said, Chen Xi stood up and walked towards an arena.
Ya Qing and Zhen Liuqing were startled at the same time. They listened carefully and saw that Chen Xi's name was being called on the distant arena
The two of them looked at each other, filled with annoyance. In order to argue with a woman with a nasty mouth, they forgot to pay attention to the situation around them. They really shouldn't have...
