It didn't take long for the Imperial Tutor to announce the official start of the assessment.
After that, he used his power to release a five-colored aura and injected it into the ancient stone gate to open the portal.
Duanmu Yulong, Qianshan Zhenwu, and the others took the lead and stepped into the portal.
Swoosh!
With a flash of white light, Duanmu Yulong, Qianshan Zhenwu, and the others disappeared into the portal.
Ji Tianxing was the last to enter the portal. After passing through the portal, he was teleported to Giant Holy City like the other nine participants.
At this time, the Imperial Tutor used his majestic power to activate the array on the high platform.
Then, a white light shield with a radius of dozens of meters appeared on the high platform.
The surface of the light shield was like a mirror or a screen, showing the image of Giant Holy City and the figures of the ten participants.
Nearly 10,000 people in the square could see the movements of Ji Tianxing and the others through the images on the light shield.
In this way, the second round of assessment was carried out under the supervision of the people.
What Ji Tianxing and the others did in Giant Holy City would be shown to the public without any omission.
…
With a flash of white light, Ji Tianxing saw the scene in front of him change.
He appeared out of thin air on a dark brown wasteland, stepping on countless broken bluestones.
He looked down and saw that the broken stones were originally slabs of bluestone.
There was a whistling cold wind blowing around with a bit of chilliness and a murderous aura.
The sky was full of haze and there were large patches of gray fog and thick clouds, making the light between heaven and earth dim and the atmosphere very depressing.
Ji Tianxing raised his head and looked ahead. He saw a dark brown, ancient city a thousand meters away.
It was a huge and majestic ancient city with towering walls up to 100 meters high and a wide gate that could allow ten horses to walk side by side.
On the lintel above the city gate, there were three quaint words engraved.
Giant Holy City!
There was a wide moat outside the city gate. In the nearly 100-meter-wide moat, there was a surging river.
However, this ancient and majestic city that seemed to have a history of thousands of years was dilapidated at this time.
The tall and wide city gate was half closed. The drawbridge of the city gate had long been broken and scattered on the ground.
Huge cracks also appeared on the towering and sturdy stone walls, revealing many gaps.
The broken bricks were scattered on the ground and in the moat.
The wide moat had long been blocked. The surging river water had already overflowed the riverbank and was pouring into the city gate.
Ji Tianxing could still clearly hear cries and shouts coming from all over the city. There were also raging flames and thick smoke rising into the sky.
There was no doubt that this ancient Giant Spiritual City had just experienced a disaster.
Ji Tianxing frowned and observed for a moment. Then, he frowned and whispered, "What disaster has this Giant Spirit City experienced? Is it a natural disaster or a war? "
There was no answer. He could only wait until he entered the city to investigate.
The other contestants obviously had the same idea.
Everyone took a few glances at the city gate, then stepped across the dark brown wasteland and rushed towards the city gate.
Ji Tianxing was not willing to fall behind. He quickly followed the footsteps of the contestants and arrived at the city gate.
There were many huge bricks scattered in the wide city gate, as well as some fragments of weapons and armors, and more than a dozen guards' bodies.
But other than that, there were no living guards inside or outside the city gate.
After discovering this situation, several contestants immediately expressed their opinions.
Duanmu Yulong said with a dignified expression, "We are very unfamiliar with this Giant Spiritual City. We still don't know what happened here.
It is imperative that we enter the city as soon as possible to investigate the disaster so that we can find a way to save the people. "
Among the ten contestants, his status was the most distinguished. There was a faint sense of controlling the overall situation in his tone.
Qianshan Zhenwu exuded a majestic aura. With a gloomy face, he said in a dignified tone, "The city gate is half closed. More than a dozen guards have died in battle, but no other guards have appeared.
Such a completely unguarded situation can only explain one problem. The Giant Spiritual City must have suffered heavy casualties and the whole city is in chaos.
In my opinion, we should enter the city first and understand the situation from the people. We should pacify the people as soon as possible and control the chaotic situation in the city … "
Everyone knew that Qianshan Zhenwu was the Governor of Yanyi City and had rich experience in managing a city.
This assessment was very beneficial to him, which greatly increased his chances of winning the title of Chief.
What he said was also a clear and organized decision.
Several contestants immediately nodded and agreed with Qianshan Zhenwu's words.
Everyone crossed the brick ruins in the city gate and entered the Giant Spiritual City to check the situation in the city.
Duanmu Yulong spoke for the first time. He wanted to show his majesty and establish prestige as soon as possible.
But he did not expect that Qianshan Zhenwu's seemingly casual words would suppress his limelight and win the support of several geniuses.
This made him a little unhappy. He frowned and wanted to compete with Qianshan Zhenwu.
After all, in everyone's opinion, the winner and loser would be decided between him and Qianshan Zhenwu in this battle for the position of Chief.
However, no one noticed that Ji Tianxing, who had been silent all this time, was not only looking around with sharp eyes, but also carefully observing a few cracks.
He even checked the corpses of the guards that were buried in the ruins and turned into minced meat.
Although he did not speak, he had a prediction and judgment in his heart.
"Judging from the damage to the city wall and the city gate, the disaster in the Giant Spiritual City is not a natural disaster or a war, but an invasion by the strong.
The guards were not killed by weapons, but directly killed by the powerful shock wave. Their bodies were smashed into meat paste by the gravel. "
While this thought flashed through his mind, Ji Tianxing was also secretly vigilant.
In the unfamiliar Giant Spiritual City, no one knew what dangers there would be. He must act steadily.
After a while, everyone entered the Giant Spiritual City and saw the situation in the city clearly.
They saw that the broad streets in the city had been twisted and broken, and there were many gullies and pits.
Most of the tall buildings and buildings on both sides of the street were also broken or collapsed, turning into ruins.
Many places were ablaze with raging flames and thick smoke rising into the air.
Many people were seriously injured and panicked. While running away in a panic, they kept shouting in grief and indignation.
Duanmu Yulong and several contestants quickly stopped several people who were fleeing in panic and asked what had happened in the city.
Those people were so frightened that their minds were a little confused.
