C187 Shang yue ancient city

The next morning, the sky was clear.

The slumber of the night finally allowed Zhan Tianming to look a little more spirited.

After taking a bath and changing into clean clothes, Zhan Tianming walked out of his room. There were already servants waiting outside.

"Young Master Zhan, Camel and the others are already waiting outside the Duke Palace." The servant bowed and said.

"Oh, they're pretty early." Zhan Tianming grinned.

He reckoned that in his previous life, if he had not slept for so many days, he would definitely not be able to wake up if he did not sleep for one day and one night. However, this Nine Dragons Continent that was brimming with spirit energy actually recovered pretty much in a single night.

One had to say, being filled with spiritual energy was good.

Very quickly, a large number of people from the County Prince Palace started to rush out of the Linjiang City.

As far as the eye could see, the entire Shang Yue Ancient City was run-down and desolate. On top of the city wall made of bluestone, weeds and moss were growing out of the cracks in the walls, the entire ancient city was filled with the traces of time.

Moreover, this was a deserted ancient city that emitted a strong sense of desolation.

It was also because of this martial arts competition that this place was once again filled with people.

By the time Zhan Tianming and the others arrived, the Moon Slaughter City was already full of people.

"Tell me, which country's Martial Cultivator is stronger in this competition?"

"That's hard to say."

"Hey, what's wrong with that? In my opinion, the Martial Cultivator of Phoenix Cry County is very strong. "

"That's right, I've also heard that among those participating in the competition this time, one of the participants from Phoenix Cry County is an expert on Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank."

"Yeah, that person is called..." What's his name? "

"His name is Dugu Jian."

"Yes, it's Dugu Jian. I heard that he cultivates the way of killing and killing. His technique is called the Slaughtering Sky Technique, it sounds very mighty."

"Humph!" What did Dugu Jian count for? Yue Yang was also very strong, and his Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank was one rank higher than Dugu Jian. This time, I bet a hundred silver on Ma Jiahui winning. "

"Ma Jiahui?"

"You mean, that person who was born in poverty, was lucky enough to obtain a powerful cultivation technique, and in the end, even attracted a strong enemy that killed all of his family members, yet he himself disappeared for many years. Besides appearing once in the battle of the Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank ten years ago, there was no trace of him after that.

"That's right, it's him."

"…"

All kinds of discussions were going on and on in the ancient city of the Cangyue, and people were chatting with relish.

"It seems that we were the first to arrive." Zongzheng Qingxuan who was disguised as Luo An said to Zhan Tianming and the rest.

Then their team stopped in a wide yard.

Zongzheng Qingxuan pointed to the dozen or so rooms in front of them, and said: "This is the courtyard of my Duke Lin Shangjun's Palace, however, it's been more than nine years since anyone has stayed here, I'll have my servants clean it out later, so everyone can take a break."

"Camel, when will the competition begin?" Zhan Tianming asked.

Wei Jiang and the rest looked like they wanted to know too, and couldn't help but to turn and look at Zongzheng Qingxuan.

Zongzheng Qingxuan laughed: "Don't be anxious, the time for the several counties' discussion is tonight. I reckon it will only officially start tomorrow morning. Oh right, there's a ranking list of our Sky Wind Country's younger generation in the Shang Yue Ancient City … Any person who could leave their name on the Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank was a genius amongst geniuses. Young Master Zhan, you guys might as well go take a look. "

Just as he finished speaking, he saw that another group of people from County Prince Palace had arrived at the Shang Yue Ancient City, and were resting in a courtyard not too far away from them.

Everyone's gaze casually swept over it.

Zhan Tianming was very curious about the Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank, so he left the courtyard together with Wei Jiang and the others.

"Brother Wei, how much do you know about Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank?" Zhan Tianming turned to look at Wei Jiang who was walking beside him.

Wei Jiang frowned as he recalled his memories.

"Actually, I don't know much. It's just some rumors I heard when I was young."

"It is said that the Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank only contains the geniuses of our Sky Wind Country young generation, and it only contains the top ten, and every ten years, it will hold a competition between the geniuses. Only Martial Cultivator under the age of thirty can sign up to participate, and in the end, the names of the top ten will be left on the Hidden Dragon Sky Wind Ranking, which can be considered as a symbol of honor."

"Right, it's said that the top three will receive a mysterious reward from the Imperial Family."

"So that's how it is." Zhan Tianming nodded.

At this time, Yan Donghuo smiled, and said: "Brother Tianming, Little Jiang, do you guys want to know what the Imperial Family offers as a mysterious reward?"

Hearing that, Zhan Tianming and Wei Jiang both turned to look at Yan Donghuo, curiosity written all over their faces.

"You know?" Zhan Tianming asked.

After asking, he felt that his words were a waste of time.

If Yan Donghuo didn't know, he definitely wouldn't say it out loud.

Sure enough, Yan Donghuo shrugged, spread out his hands and said: "Of course, because a few decades ago, my name had also stayed on the Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank."

Zhan Tianming and Wei Jiang were stunned.

The name of the old drunkard had actually even climbed onto the Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank before?

It can't be?

The old drunkard Yan Donghuo's current cultivation was only at two star Martial Spirit, how did he manage to get a rank dozens of years ago?

Zhan Tianming and Wei Jiang both believed that the Yan Donghuo dozens of years ago definitely wasn't that strong.

Amidst the disbelief in the two people's eyes, Yan Donghuo's expression dimmed a little.

"Sigh …"

He sighed and took two more sips.

"Speaking of which, I was only nineteen when I participated in the Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank's battle. At that time, my cultivation was already a two star Martial Spirit."

Saying that, Yan Donghuo could not help but shake his head, his face revealing a bitter and bitter smile.

Zhan Tianming and Wei Jiang finally saw through it.

This old drunkard was someone with a story.

Yan Donghuo sighed once again, then said slowly: "Let's not talk about it, anyway, my cultivation will only be like this for the rest of my life."

Bitterness! Helplessness!

Yan Donghuo's face seemed to be covered with these words.

Finally, he continued, "The imperial family's reward is that the top three will be given a chance to view the Dragon Slaying Slash."

"Dragon Slaying Slash?"

Zhan Tianming and Wei Jiang were startled.

In that moment, Zhan Tianming could not help but think of the legends related to the Emperor of The Windy Nation Room.

The first founding emperor of the Sky Wind Country had once killed a Divine Dragon.

Could it be, that Dragon Slaying Slash was the trump card left behind by the founder of the Sky Wind Country?

If that was the case, then this reward was really attractive.

While they were talking, the three of them had already arrived in front of the Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank Plaza.

There were already many people gathered there to watch the show.

"Look over there, that's the Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank." Yan Donghuo pointed to the dozens of stone walls in front of him that were as smooth as jade. "On those stone walls, are carved the names of the top ten Sky Wind Hidden Dragon Rank s of every year."

"A piece every ten years. Now, it should be around thirty-five pieces now, right?"
