If it had been past midnight, even with Grandpa Lan's help, he wouldn't have been able to register. Fu Yan was there, too, but he wasn't going to participate. He was only there to watch Fu Xi fight. There were many Ultimate King Realm fighters who didn't participate, too. For example, the Cloud City Outer City Lord, the Deputy City Lord, and Cai Kangyong didn't participate.
"You two came last night? Didn't you meet the monster?"
Du Feng heard that Fu Xi and Fu Yan had come to the inner city last night. If they wanted to enter the inner city, they had to go to the outer city first. Although the monster only started eating people in the outer city at midnight, it was most active at night. When they passed by the Black Dragon River, there was no way they hadn't met the monster.
"Yes, I did. It was fun to beat it up."
Fu Xi had just become an Ultimate King Realm fighter, so he didn't know who to beat up. But then, he met the monster in the Black Dragon River, so he decided to use it as a practice target. But the monster really did take a beating. It didn't even look like it had been hit many times. Its body was very flexible.
Du Feng heard this, and he realized that the heirs of an ancient family really were quite stubborn. The Fu family knew it was Zhuo Dong Lai's pet, but they still beat it up. The relationship between the higher-ups was complicated, and Zhuo Dong Lai wouldn't offend the Fu family over a pet.
"Let's go. You have a match today."
Grandpa Lan was one of the organizers, so he knew a little about the order of the matches. There was no Fu Xi's match today, but Du Feng's was in the third match in the morning.
"Shangguan Yun's match is also in the competition."
Du Feng was about to leave when the old man added, "Shangguan Yun's match is also in the competition." Did he already know about the relationship between Du Feng and Shangguan Yun?
Although the old man was powerful, he wasn't that powerful. It was just that when he mentioned Shangguan Yun's strength yesterday, Du Feng was a little excited, which was noticed by Grandpa Lan. Young people liked to compare themselves with each other, especially geniuses. No one was willing to admit defeat. Today was Shangguan Yun's competition, so Du Feng could go there and have a look. Maybe he could have a correct evaluation of himself.
"What's wrong, Brother Du? Do you know her?"
Don't be fooled by Fu Xi's appearance, he is actually very observant. He sensed that Du Feng wasn't in a bad mood, so he purposely asked about it. He thought that his elegant Brother Du also had an affair with the famous Alliance Master Shangguan.
"Let's go and take a look."
Du Feng did not say that he knew him, nor did he say that he did not know him. Because if he said he knew her, he would have to explain how he knew her. But if he said he didn't know him, he would be lying. With people like Grandpa Lan around, it would be easy to tell if he lied.
"Okay. She's in the first match. Watch carefully."
Grandpa Lan was very helpful. He even told Du Feng about this. Shangguan Yun was arranged to be in the first match. Zhuo Donglai was probably the one behind this. In theory, the first match should have been against a weaker newcomer. Why was she in such a hurry?
This time, Du Feng was wrong. The order of the fights on the leaderboard was different from the other leaderboards. Zhuo Donglai believed that Shanghai Yun's power was the strongest below the fifth level of the Ultimate Emperor Realm, so he arranged for her to be in the first match.
The second match was Koi Boy's, and the third match was Du Feng's. That meant that Zhuo Donglai did not underestimate Du Feng. He believed him to be the strongest newcomer, aside from Shanghai Yun and Koi Boy. Anyone above the fifth level of the Ultimate Emperor Realm was no longer a newcomer, and they would not be competing with them. They would only meet in the round-robin stage.
Interesting. I want to see how much that woman has grown. To be honest, Du Feng was very interested in Shanghai Yun's power. After all, he had once loved this woman, and he had married her. In the end, she had plotted against him. Whether it was for business or personal reasons, Du Feng wanted to learn more about Shanghai Yun's power. That way, he would know when he fought her in the future.
The Cloud Ranking competition was arranged to be held in the Cloud Capital's inner city, and it was located at the most central location. There was a large plaza here, and there were four pillars at each of the four corners of the plaza. The statues on the pillars were familiar to Du Feng. They were Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.
He didn't know if it was intentional or not, but Shanghai Yun was standing in the position of the Vermilion Bird. The Vermilion Bird was also known as the Vermilion Bird. It was one of the four spirits of the sky, along with the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise. They were also known as the Four Sacred Beasts. Its biggest strength was its ability to use fire.
Half of Shangguan Yun's bloodline was from the Phoenix Clan, and she was good at using flames. If she stood in the position of the Vermilion Bird, he would receive a certain boost. Just what kind of contestant could make her pay so much attention? Apart from himself and Koi Boy, Du Feng couldn't think of any newcomer who could be a match for Shanghai Yun.
"Ying Teng, that brat is here too."
Fu Xi cried out when Shanghai Yun's opponent went on stage. He recognized that person. It was Ying Teng of the ancient Ying family. His bloodline was also relatively noble. The Ying family's bloodline was similar to Shanghai Yun's. It was half human and half yao.
To be more precise, Ying Teng's bloodline was a combination of humans and Dragons. Moreover, these Dragons weren't the ordinary Dragons found in the sea. They were one of the ancient Divine Beasts, the Winged Dragon.
The Vermilion Bird, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise were the Four Heavenly Spirits. However, there was another saying that the Vermilion Bird, Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Winged Dragon were the Five Heavenly Officials. In other words, the Winged Dragon's strength was similar to the other four Divine Beasts.
As a mixed-blood Dragons, Ying Teng naturally stood in the position of the Azure Dragon. That position was extremely beneficial to him. Although there was no Winged Dragon on the stage, the Azure Dragon was still a Dragons. This was because there was no Phoenix on the stage, and the Vermilion Bird and Phoenix positions weren't very different.
Du Feng rolled his eyes at Fuxi and thought to himself, Can you really do it or not? Since they knew each other and were such powerful enemies, how could they not know that their opponent had also come to the inner city? As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will always be victorious. The Fu family really didn't do this well.
Actually, Fu Xi couldn't be blamed. He didn't even know that he would be able to break through to the Ultimate Emperor Realm on the last night. Even the elders of his family didn't have much hope. If he couldn't break through to the Ultimate Emperor Realm, he couldn't participate in the Cloud Ranking Tournament. Thus, he didn't pay much attention to gathering information.
Since Fu Xi knew this Ying Teng, Du Feng naturally had to find out more about him. As soon as he asked, he found out that Ying Teng was also living in Kun Mountain. He remembered that Canyang had told Du Feng to visit Kun Mountain when he was free, and that he could even treat him to seafood.
