C293 Hero's Invitation
C293 Hero's Invitation
Su Guan and the others, who did not expect to come out so soon, were incomparably shocked. When they heard from Chen Yu that Chen Yu had defeated Chen Daolin and that all the disciples of the sub-school had left with Chen Daolin, they all revealed looks of disbelief.
Finally, after seeing the corpses of Guan Yinn and Duan Jie, as well as confirming that there were no traces of any other disciples from the other sub-schools, everyone had no choice but to believe it.
The reactions of Su Guan, Jun Che, and Yim Zifong were different. Su Guan and Zhou Tie were both surprised and delighted, while Zhan Ruyi's shocked expression was replaced with a trace of something else. Yim Zifong, on the other hand, was not without fear.
Even though Chen Daolin had been defeated, Chen Yu was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he decided to stay in the Little Snow Peak for a few more days to restore the Ice Fish Spiritual Soul to its peak condition. At the same time, he decided to wait and see if Feng Xuan would appear.
Bringing Su Guan was somewhat inconvenient after all. If they were to meet another master like Feng Xuan, Chen Yu was absolutely confident that he could protect them from harm. Therefore, if Feng Xuan and Chen Daolin were to attack together, it would give Chen Yu a chance to solve the problem once and for all!
Although he didn't manage to kill Chen Daolin, Chen Yu was sure that Chen Daolin wouldn't be able to recover fully from the City Battle Trial's injuries for the next three months.
Needless to say, if Chen Daolin still had the combat power, he would definitely not choose to retreat with the support of more than a hundred disciples!
Three days passed quickly. To Chen Yu's disappointment, Feng Xuan did not arrive and no new disciples appeared.
Chen Yu estimated that the sub-school disciple who contacted Feng Xuan over ten days ago was unable to contact him at all. After all, the Trial Secret Realm was very broad, if they were heading in the wrong direction, it would not be easy for them to find Feng Xuan.
On this day, Chen Yuzheng was sitting cross-legged on the peak of the snowy mountain, cultivating his Blood Flame Tyrant Spell when he suddenly saw a figure dashing up from the ravine beneath the snowy mountain.
The person had a pair of wings on his back, but his speed wasn't slow. At most an hour's time would pass before he reached the summit of the snowy mountain peak.
Chen Yu thought that they were warriors who had come to search for ice attributed Spiritual Soul, so he didn't pay too much attention to it.
After twenty minutes or so, the figure was already halfway up the mountain. It was standing on top of a protruding ice rock and looking into the distance. "Hello, is anyone here?"
The sound was not soft, and it was filled with vigor. It could be clearly heard in the howling wind of the mountain.
Chen Yu couldn't help but be shocked.
"Who's shouting?" The sound of his clothes tearing through the air rang out beside Chen Yu. Yim Zifong was also alarmed by the sound and stopped his training. He quickly rushed over from the cultivation ice rocks.
Chen Yu gestured to the figure that shouted in the middle of the mountain.
Yim Zifong looked at it for a while and revealed an inquiring expression towards Chen Yu. He said, "It seems to be specially here to look for someone. It's a little strange. Should I go take a look?"
"Be careful!" Chen Yu was not surprised by Ye Zichen's attitude and nodded.
"Don't worry, my Qing Gong is not bad!" Yim Zifong said with a smile and jumped down.
Gazing at Yim Zifong's back, Chen Yu smiled faintly.
After Yim Zifong decided to follow Chen Yu, he lowered his position and kept a good sense of propriety. Not only did he maintain a grateful and intimate attitude towards Chen Yu, he also didn't try to curry favor with him. As a result, even though he was not an old friend of Chen Yu, but after spending the past ten days together, Chen Yu had a good impression of him, and could be considered to be worth getting to know.
With Yim Zifong as a substitute for such a small matter, Chen Yu was naturally happy.
The sound of footsteps rang out. Su Guan and Zhan Ruyi had also heard the commotion and came out of the training area.
After Yim Zifong met up with the warrior and said something from a distance, the warrior took out a piece of paper and handed it to Yim Zifong. Yim Zifong looked down and said a few words to the warrior before leading him to the summit.
Soon, Yim Zifong returned to Chen Yu and handed the paper over to him with a strange expression.
Chen Yu took the paper and looked at it. There were only three flamboyant words written at the top. It was extremely eye-catching: Hero Invitation!
Below the three words were words that were filled with thousands of them, to the effect that the City Battle Trial s were reaching their end, and the number of participants who passed the examination was only around 600. Rather than fighting to the death for two wooden tablets, it would be better to fight for the higher position.
In the end, there were more than a dozen Hero posts' sponsors. Each of their words was different, displaying an extraordinary calligraphy skill.
Amongst the dozen or so names, Chen Yu accidentally saw Shen Yih's name.
After reading it, Chen Yu's face was full of surprise. He handed the Hero invitation to Su Guan beside him and looked towards the fighter that Yim Zifong had brought.
That practitioner was around twenty-four to twenty-five years old and had a medium build. His temperament appeared to be astute and capable, and he had the cultivation of the fifth level of Heavenly Astral Stage.
"Yu Yang City's Ye Qing's subordinate, He Yu, greets Sir!" That warrior also saw that Chen Yu was the leader. He cupped his hands towards Chen Yu and said with a polite tone.
"Yu Yang City? Do you know Gongsun Hao? " Chen Yu asked casually.
"Of course!" He Yu nodded his head: "Young Master Gongsun has an extraordinary background, he is one of the most outstanding City Battle Trial in Yuyang City, his strength is not much weaker than Young Master Ye Qing!"
"Oh, then what's the strength of you, Ye Qing?" Chen Yu laughed.
"Eighth Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage!" He Yu said.
Chen Yu was slightly surprised when he heard this.
Sun Qing and Zhan Ruyi's expressions also changed slightly.
"Everyone, don't worry. My family's young master has no ill intentions!" He Yu said: "My family's young master has widely sent out invitations to heroes, because I can't bear to see the warriors of City Battle Trial fight to the death for a mere two wooden tablets. It's so bloody all over the place, and none of them can return home. But unfortunately, one or two wooden tablets are actually not enough for people to pass through the City Battle Trial. As such, my family's young master intends for everyone to go through a battle that has nothing to do with life and death to decide who gets the quota! "
Hearing this, Chen Yu had to admit that what Ye Qing did was a good thing. Of course, that was on the premise that Ye Qing really meant no harm.
"The heroes whose names were posted were all top figures of the various cities. For example, the young master Gu Ming of Xuan Yang City, had the strength of the peak of the seventh level of Heavenly Astral Stage; the young master Hong Feeng of Wu Cheng, also had the strength of the peak of the seventh level of Heavenly Astral Stage; the young master Zhong Shiyue of Ancient Tong City, after introducing a few people in succession, He Yu said: "Many talented people participated in this matter, and each of them sent people to form the Cloud Ridge Law Enforcement Unit to maintain order.
Chen Yu looked at Su Guan and Zhan Ruyi with amazement on their faces.
Chen Yu remained calm and collected, but in his heart, he was surprised at Ye Qing's generosity.
The matter of Shen Yih gathering martial artists in the stone forest was nothing compared to it.
It had to be known that passing the City Battle Trial s would be a huge temptation to all the warriors participating in the selection. After all, it would guarantee fairness and fairness, and also guarantee that they wouldn't die from worry, so most of the warriors who received this kind of invitation would probably rush to the Cloud Ridge to fight for the wooden signboard.
In fact, even if they did not try to fight it out, just Ye Qing being able to guarantee that he would not kill anyone was a huge attraction for the City Battle Trial.
"What do you think?" He Yu said.
"That's right!" Chen Yu said lightly: "However, I want to know the rules of the competition!"
"The rules of the competition are very simple. Both parties will provide the same amount of wooden tablets as a wager. The winner will obtain all the wooden tablets!" He Yu said, "For a one-on-one match, besieging is not allowed. As long as you are strong enough, you can win three to five wooden tablets, or you can win thirty to fifty wooden tablets, which will give each of your companions a spot! "
Su Guan and the others couldn't help laughing.
He Yu did not know that Su Guan and the others had already made it through the City Battle Trial s, so he did not understand.
"If you don't have a wooden tablet, how will you participate in the martial arts competition?" Su Guan asked after laughing.
"You can use what you have on you to exchange for wooden plates with us. After you win enough wooden plates, you can trade the things back. it's just like a pawn! " He Yu smiled and said, "Anyways, as long as you have something good, you won't have to worry about not having the chance to participate in the martial arts competition!"
"What if I don't have a penny and I don't have a single treasure?" Su Guan asked calmly.
"In that case!" He Yu said, "You can only think of a way to obtain some treasures on your way to Cloud Ridge. Or, you can borrow from Ye Qing!"
"You can still borrow money?" Chen Yu was surprised.
"My family's young master is kind and allows lending, but if I can't return it, I have to follow my family's young master. After the City Battle Trial ends, I will work for my family's young master for a period of time, which is determined by how much I borrow!" He Yu said.
"Is your young master not afraid of dying in Trial Secret Realm?" Chen Yu asked with a hint of admiration.
"If I die, it can only be my young master's business, which is a loss!"
"Awesome!" Chen Yu smiled and said, "It looks like I have to go to Cloud Ridge this time. Regardless of whether or not I can get a quota, I can't miss a gathering like this!"
"In that case, I'll be taking my leave!" He Yu cupped his hands and said, "I wish everyone success!"
He Yu turned to leave after he finished speaking, but didn't hesitate in the slightest.
"Wait, I have another question!" Chen Yu said.
"Please speak!"
"Aren't you afraid that the disciples of the branch sects will eliminate everyone in one fell swoop?" Chen Yu asked.
He Yu shook his head and said arrogantly: "My Young Master is of the Eighth Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage, and at this moment, there are no less than thirty Martial Cultivator of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage s gathered at Cloud Ridge. When I came out to publish the Hero's Invitation, Cloud Ridge had already gathered no less than 1000 martial artists from the 72 cities, and will only gather more and more. Everyone, there's no need to worry about the disciples of the sub-schools appearing, farewell! "
After he finished speaking, He Yu turned around and left, flying swiftly down the snowy peak.
"That young master Ye Qing has really gone all out in his business!" Yim Zifong sighed with emotion, "He has really calculated the heart's desire. Even though he knows that he will get away with it, he is still able to convince people!"
