Special envoy!!
He was killed by the City Lord's men.
And it was the City Lord himself who gave the order. Although the City Lord had already handed in the evidence, the other party's family wouldn't let it go so easily. It took a lot of effort for their family to get a special envoy. The person who went was also the crown prince of the family.
It was the kind of person who went out to experience, and also to give them a chance to increase their team.
But now, the special envoy actually died outside.
How could that family not be angry?
It was inevitable for those special envoys to make mistakes.
And generally speaking, those City Lords would give them face even if they knew that they had made a mistake.
This time, it was their family's fault.
The fault was that they shouldn't have schemed against the City Lord.
Normally speaking, there was nothing wrong with those special envoys being greedy. Who didn't make some money when they were special envoys? But it was a big mistake to murder the City Lord, but even if it was wrong, it was reasonable to give him face and spare his life.
But the City Lord of Xin Du directly killed the special envoy.
This was considered to have offended the other party.
The City Lord led everyone directly to find a place to stay.
"How do we stay in the hotel? Isn't it arranged by the City Lord Manor of the secret wilderness?" Xiatian Asked in confusion. Normally, this kind of thing should be arranged by the secret wilderness. After all, the participants this time weren't some random soldiers, but were personally led by the City Lord, so the secret wilderness would definitely arrange a place.
"The place is arranged, but the environment is very bad. Most importantly, the people of the secret wilderness ten states are all staying there. Those people have a very high degree of ridicule, which will affect the morale of our participants, so it's better not to go there," the City Lord of Xin Du said.
His requirements weren't high.
Top 500.
This number wasn't high at all.
Because there weren't many participants in total.
First of all, the last place in the secret wilderness ten states had 10 spots.
They were ranked second, so there were only 20 spots for each competition. But the people in front were different.
The third place from the bottom had 30 spots.
The fourth place from the bottom had 50 spots.
The fifth place from the bottom had 70 spots.
The fifth place from the top had 100 spots.
The fourth place from the top had 120 spots.
The third place from the top had 200 spots.
The second place from the top had 300 spots.
The first place from the top had 400 spots.
A total of 1,300 people.
There were 1,300 Alchemists, 1,300 Artifact Refiners, 1,300 Array Masters, and 1,300 Mercenaries.
The City Lord's requirements were not high. He only needed to enter the top 500 in one of the four competitions.
In that case, he wouldn't lose too much face.
"Good idea. However, since you, the City Lord, are paying for it personally, I won't hold back." Xiatian smiled.
"Don't worry, I will definitely let everyone live well. Although it's not a top hotel, for convenience, I still booked a medium-sized hotel. This way, we can avoid any accidents." The City Lord of Xin Du was obviously afraid of accidents.
Although he had his own backing in the Secret Wilderness, he still didn't want to use the power behind him until the last moment. Therefore, he was very careful now.
Xiatian could sense the wariness of the City Lord.
The hotel wasn't too big, but the environment wasn't bad. Moreover, there were plenty of food and drinks here. Recently, the hotel didn't entertain outsiders and only entertained people like them.
The most considerate service throughout the whole process.
"Everyone, pay attention. There are still five days before the competition. During these five days, if there is nothing important, no one should leave this hotel. No matter what you need to buy, you can inform the service staff to arrange it. They will help you. I believe five days isn't a long time for everyone. Try to be patient." The City Lord of Xin Du reminded them.
These people were all on the silver list, so even if the City Lord spoke to them, he couldn't be too blunt.
Moreover, the City Lord hoped that these people would work hard in the upcoming competition.
"City Lord, we still have some friends in the Secret Wilderness. What if we want to see those friends?" Someone Asked.
"Endure for five days. It shouldn't be a problem to see them a few days later. Of course, they can also come here to see you, but no matter who they are, they need to register." The City Lord of Xin Du said.
"City Lord, this will be very troublesome." Those people said very unhappily. "It's not a big deal.
"A little trouble is nothing. I'm trying to save your lives. You can ask the pale-faced scholar. He's been here more than ten times. He's the most experienced. Every year, some of the contestants who come here to participate in the competition die. Not only our contestants, but also contestants from other big cities," Xin Du's City Lord said.
"That's right. Those who come to participate are all young and frivolous people. Every one of them is fearless, so when they encounter something, they are especially stubborn. It's also because of their personalities that many of them die every year. Even the two positions on our Silver Roll are from those who came to participate in the Grand Competition last time," the pale-faced scholar said directly.
Everyone knew that there were two black-colored names on the previous Silver List. Those two names represented death.
But very few people knew that those people came to participate in the competition and died.
Gasp!
Hearing the words of the pale-faced scholar, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
If the City Lord was trying to scare everyone, then the pale-faced scholar's words were even more authoritative.
"Alright, I will send people to block off the downstairs. If they are your friends, let them report their identities. You can rest assured that no matter who they are, even if they are wanted criminals, as long as they are your friends, I will let you meet them. I will definitely not expose the identities of your friends." The City Lord promised directly.
Hearing the City Lord's words, everyone nodded one after another.
Then they chose their rooms.
After Xiatian chose his room, he sat downstairs and drank.
His hobby was to drink no matter which city he went to. Not only did he drink the wine of this hotel, but he also gave money to the waiters and asked them to go out and buy a lot of good wine.
Lan Yuan had been very busy recently.
She now had three people in the Water Phoenix Mercenary Group, so not only did she have to train these two people every day, but she also had to teach them a lot of knowledge. In the end, she also taught them some of her own cultivation and fighting methods.
These were all specially arranged for the Water Phoenix Mercenary Group.
Thud thud thud!
A series of hurried footsteps came, and then a large group of people rushed over. "We want to go in and stay."
