However, in Chen Yu's eyes, the realm that these warriors generally displayed was still too high.
For example, these Tianfong City warriors, to Chen Yu's perception, the auras that most of them emitted were slightly faltering, as if their foundations were unstable.
The reason for such a situation to occur was naturally because of the ruthlessness of the City Battle Trial. In order to deal with the cruel and dangerous City Battle Trial, most of the warriors used either the Medicine Pill or secret techniques to raise their realm one level higher. This method caused his foundation to be unstable, but the advantage was obvious. That was, his combat power would still increase!
Compared to the Qiao Zhiyan that Chen Yu had fought before, these warriors with Tianfong City, including Zhao Kongming, were not comparable. Even though Zhao Kongming displayed a higher cultivation level than Qiao Zhiyan at that time.
So, from Chen Yu's point of view, although the situation was very troublesome, it was not a certain death situation. Although he had to be cautious, there was still a chance.
Especially Chen Yu, he wanted to fight for the Spiritual Soul and go straight to the inner sect of Ruling Spirit Sect. If he felt dejected facing a mere Tianfong City practitioner, how would he have the confidence to fight with other, stronger geniuses?
"Martial arts competition!" Facing Gan Yu's attentive gaze, Chen Yu laughed, and said: "Since we are here to participate in the City Battle Trial, naturally, we have to have the will to face any dangers, as well as the strong belief that we must win. If not even this, it would be better for us to leave early and give up on participating in the City Battle Trial!"
Gan Yu could not help but show a trace of regret on his face. He looked at Chen Yu as if he was looking at himself 12 years ago!
Mo Shu was shocked.
As for the others, Mo Jie, Yuen Zhou, Lin Zeyi, and the others also seemed to be deep in thought after hearing this.
Chen Yu's words were meant for them. Facing the pursuit of Tianfong City, Chen Yu and the others were already on the same side. If they lost all their fighting spirit, it would not benefit Chen Yu at all and would only drag him down.
"The Spiritual Qi Wood Token is here!" Right at this time, Shi Yue had already rushed over, and when he arrived at the crowd of people near the Tianfong City, he began to issue out wooden plates that contained spirit energy.
"Senior brother Gan!" Seeing the commotion over there, Chen Yu suddenly remembered something and asked Gan Yu, "After the selection, after coming out from the secret realm and checking the spirit energy in the wooden board, will the board be retracted?"
Gan Yu did not expect Chen Yu to ask this question. A trace of hesitation appeared on his face.
This kind of hesitation caused Chen Yu to be startled, and he was quite surprised with Gan Yu's reaction.
"The sect doesn't have any regulations on how wooden tablets will be taken back!" After a moment of hesitation, Gan Yu answered Chen Yu's question and said, "However, wooden tablets are usually taken into the possession of the inner disciples who want to test them. This can also be considered as an unwritten rule!"
Chen Yu couldn't help but show a pondering expression when he heard that.
"Un, it's already starting over there. I'll bring you guys over!" However, Gan Yu didn't seem to be willing to continue this topic. He pointed at the stone door under the cliff and said.
Fine spirit inscriptions had already started flashing on the stone door. The spirit inscriptions were constantly being lit up and the entire stone door was enveloped in spirit light.
Those white-clothed people were still standing on the stone platform, observing the stone door.
Everyone followed Gan Yu and walked towards the stone gate.
"Alright, everyone take your wooden tags and follow me!" Shi Yue saw Gan Yu leading a group of Donwu City practitioners towards the stone door. He also shouted out loud and led a group of Tianfong City practitioners towards the stone door.
Jiang Huan and Qin Zhong were the first to rush in that direction.
The Donwu City Warriors that saw this could not help but let out a dark expression.
Very soon, the spirit light enveloping the entire stone door began to shrink into a white curtain of light, which floated in the middle of the arched stone door.
From the hologram came a folded and distorted spatial fluctuation.
"It's done!" A man in white shouted.
Immediately, some people ran into the cottage on the side, while others seemed to call for people.
Just when Chen Yu and co. arrived at the stone platform outside the stone gate, they were stopped by a few white clothed men. Chen Yu saw Jiang Huan talking to a middle-aged white clothed man standing next to the stone gate.
Chen Yu saw the white clothed man turn his head towards him and look at each of the Tianfong City warriors. Then, he drew two slashes on a list.
It was obvious that they were making arrangements so that after the Tianfong City warriors and Donwu City warriors entered the trial area, they would be in an adjacent position.
At this time, a few people came out from the thatched cottage and walked towards the stone door.
The person in the lead was over sixty years old. He was tall and burly, wearing a purple robe with a high crown. His clothes fluttered in the wind, and a powerful aura that was like the scorching sun in the sky radiated from his body. This aura was so intense that it could not be looked at. It attracted the attention of everyone in the valley at the first possible moment.
Chen Yu also turned his head to look. When he looked over, he felt his heart stop for a second.
It was too powerful, so powerful that it surpassed one's imagination. There was no way to guess what it was.
Compared to this old man, whether it was Gan Yu or Shi Yue, who gave Chen Yu an unfathomable depth, they were both dwarfed. They were not worth mentioning. It was as if the difference between a firefly and the bright moon was like the difference between cloud and mud.
"I'm afraid he's an expert from the Profound Dark Stage!" Chen Yu suddenly had a thought.
The old man quickly arrived in front of the stone door with a few people behind him. His gaze swept across everyone present, and no one dared to look him in the eye.
A middle-aged man in white, who seemed to be in his forties and had an imposing manner, walked up to the old man and whispered a few words to him.
The old man nodded, signalling the white clothed man to retreat to the side, he exhaled and said: "The City Battle Trial s that occur once every three years will begin, this old man is Ruling Spirit Sect Elder Chu Zhengyan, and I wish that some talented genius among you will pass the selection and become my Ruling Spirit Sect's disciple!"
His voice was not loud, but it reached deep into everyone's hearts.
Too strong! Chen Yu thought back to the memories of the elder whose Profound Heaven Sect were corresponding to the cultivation level, sighing in his heart. Moreover, he knew that Chu Zhengyan did not intentionally display too much of his aura. He only revealed a little bit of his aura to attract the attention of all the participants.
After a pause, Chu Zhengyan took the list from the man in white, and said: "Now, I will begin to read the names of the cities that entered the secret realm from here, and the participants will enter the secret realm through the portal. The first one is West River City! "
Immediately, twenty over disciples followed the two Outer Sect disciples onto the stone stage, and walked towards the teleportation gate.
In the 72 cities, West River City was ranked downstream, not too far from the Donwu City. Therefore, this time, there were not many warriors who had come from West River City.
Soon, the martial artists from Xijiang City entered the light screen one by one. Then, their figures were flooded by the white light and disappeared one by one.
There were a few people who hesitated, but overall, the speed was very fast.
After the warriors from Xijiang City disappeared into the light screen, the white clothed man who was whispering with Chu Zhengyan flashed his body. He arrived next to the stone door and pressed his palm on an ancient copper plate that was connected to the stone door.
As the white-clothed middle-aged man pressed his palm down, a spirit rune lit up on the copper plate. The spirit rune quickly circled around the stone table, and some characters on the stone table lit up.
Then, a beam of spiritual light flashed across the stone platform, entering the curtain of light that hung in the middle of the stone door.
The white clothed man released his hand and stood up.
"Second place, Li Yang City!"
Another thirty plus warriors walked onto the stone stage and headed towards the teleportation gate. Li Yang City's strength was ranked in the middle among the seventy-two cities, so there were even more spots than Tianfong City.
"The third, Mighty Elephant City!" Just like the previous time, after the warriors from the Liyang City passed through the Teleportation Formation, the white clothed man once again pressed his palm onto the stone platform and started adjusting. Then, Chu Zhengyan called out his name once again.
"The fourth, Bi Xuan City!"
"Fifth place, Zhaoming City!"
"Sixth, Donwu City!"
It was finally the Donwu City's turn. Gan Yu urged in front of the crowd: "Go up, I wish all of you good luck!"
No one answered him. With Yuen Zhou leading the way, everyone jumped onto the stone platform and walked towards the teleportation gate.
Many people revealed nervous expressions. This was their first time experiencing a portal like this. Moreover, after passing through the teleportation gate, no one knew what they would face at the first possible moment.
It had to be known that there was no lack of different kinds of Demonic Beast existing in the secret realm.
Chen Yu followed closely behind Mo Shu with a calm expression.
Mo Shu looked nervous as she whispered, "Chen Yu, there won't be any problems, right?"
"Don't worry!" Chen Yu smiled and said, "You're right in front of Mo Jie and Mo Zhen. I'm right beside you, so there won't be any trouble!"
Without hesitation, Yuen Zhou took a step forward and walked into the middle of the portal. Immediately, his body was enveloped in a white light as he passed through the portal, accompanied by the distortion of space.
Chen Yu knew that there was a difference between a teleportation gate and a teleportation circle.
The transmission array could teleport far away space, but it was also a bit more complicated. When used, the Space Laws would create a sharp cut at the edge that was hard for a low-level martial artist to resist. If they weren't careful, then they could be torn apart by the transmission array's Law Energy.
On the other hand, the portal was much gentler. It did not have any problems with the portal, so when Ye Xiwen walked through the portal, it was fine as long as he walked through normally.
Of course, the distance that a teleportation gate can travel is very short, and its effect is equivalent to that of a door.
Chen Yu reckoned that even though this secret space was independent, it was close by.
One by one, the people in front passed through the portal. Soon, Chen Yu followed closely behind Mo Shu and passed through the portal.
This experience was equivalent to passing through a layer of water curtain. When the Space Law was applied to the body, there was a short period of confusion in space, but this confusion only lasted for a short moment. Then, Chen Yu discovered that the scene in front of him changed drastically as an endless plain appeared.
Mo Shu and Mo Jie were still not far in front of them. A little distance away, there were Yuen Zhou, Lin Zeyi, and the rest.
As the last person to pass through the portal, Chen Yu couldn't help but look back. Behind him was an oval-shaped white light screen. Through the light screen, he couldn't see anything.
The light curtain was shrinking rapidly until it became a dot and suddenly disappeared.
The City Battle Trial had officially begun!
