Jianchen lowered his head and pondered for a moment before asking, "Brother Qing Yun, you said that only mercenaries under the age of fifty can participate in this gathering. Then how strong are the strongest mercenaries participating?"
Qing Yun pondered for a moment before replying, "According to the information passed down from the past Mercenary Gatherings, the top ten mercenaries are basically all Earth Saint Masters. After all, breaking through to the Earth Saint Master realm is just too difficult. Moreover, it is extremely dangerous. To be able to become an Earth Saint Master before the age of fifty is already considered an outstanding talent."
"Then are there any Heaven Saint Masters participating in the Mercenary Gatherings?" Jianchen continued to ask. With the assistance of the Azure Sword Spirits, the threat of Earth Saint Masters to him had decreased by a lot. In his heart, Earth Saint Masters were not undefeatable. The ones that truly made Jianchen feel pressured were Heaven Saint Masters.
"That's impossible!" Qing Yun shook his head and said, "Heaven Saint Masters are already peak experts on the Tian Yuan Continent. How can they be so easy to cultivate? Although there are people who can become Heaven Saint Masters before the age of fifty, such geniuses are rarely seen on the Tian Yuan Continent. Moreover, even if there really is someone who can become a Heaven Saint Master before the age of fifty, they may not necessarily have the qualifications to participate in the Mercenary Gatherings. This is because the time difference between the Mercenary Gatherings and the Mercenary Gatherings eliminates the qualifications of the majority of cultivation geniuses."
Hearing this, Jianchen nodded in agreement. Qing Yun was right. Not all genius mercenaries could participate in the Mercenary Gatherings. The Mercenary Gatherings were only held once every fifty years and only those under the age of fifty had the qualifications to participate. If a genius could really become a Heaven Saint Master before the age of fifty, if they were born a few years before or a few years after the Mercenary Gatherings, then they would miss out on the Mercenary Gatherings. At least until now, there had never been anyone who could become a Heaven Saint Master before the age of thirty or forty on the Tian Yuan Continent.
Next, Jianchen asked Qing Yun about the details of the Mercenary Conference. Although Qing Yun had only mentioned a portion of the rewards for the top ten rankers, this had already moved Jianchen's heart.
After sending off Qing Yun and the other two, Jianchen immediately summoned Duo Kang and the other Saint Masters and asked them about the Mercenary Convention. However, the information they obtained was very limited. Apart from the fact that there was a Mercenary Convention, they didn't obtain any other valuable information. They didn't even know as much as Qing Yun.
"Leader, participating in the Mercenary Conference once every fifty years is not bad, but the mortality rate is also very high. It is said that less than ten percent of the people who participate in the Mercenary Conference will survive," Charles said in a dignified tone.
"I've also heard that there are quite a few people who have reached the level of Earth Saint Master in the Mercenary Conference. They are very powerful," Duo Kang said sternly.
"Leader, if you want to participate in the Mercenary Conference, you must consider it carefully. The rewards are extremely generous, but the mortality rate is indeed quite high. At the same time, basically all the talented mercenaries on the continent have gathered in the Mercenary Conference this time. Some of them are talented and have good conditions. They can reach the level of Earth Saint Master before the age of fifty. Some of them are born with extraordinary backgrounds and have even grasped battle skills. They are extremely powerful." Mo Tian spoke with an extremely calm tone. In their eyes, the Mercenary Conference that was held once every 50 years didn't have any value as it wasn't something that they could participate in with their level. That was a stage that belonged to the experts of the mercenary world.
"Of course I know that the competition there will be extremely intense. Do you know where Mercenary City is? If you do, then tell me." Jianchen calmly said. When he heard Qing Yun mention the rewards of the Mercenary Conference, Jianchen had already secretly made up his mind. He had to participate in the Mercenary Conference because a Heaven Tier Battle Skill was just too tempting.
Three days later, Jian Chen finished arranging everything and left Wake City by himself. As for the members of the Raging Flame Mercenary Group, Jian Chen gave them a mission. They were to temporarily stop hunting magical beasts to earn money and focus on all kinds of mercenary missions in order to quickly raise the level of the Raging Flame Mercenary Group.
Before he left, Jian Chen left the Flame Mercenaries with several thousand purple coins and a few Class 2 monster cores that he had no use for. It was for the mercenaries' daily expenses and to buy some necessities. The Flame Mercenaries were currently in the process of development, so they needed to invest a large amount of money.
Because Duo Kang and the others all had leadership abilities, Jianchen was very reassured to leave the Flame Mercenaries in their hands.
Jianchen rode a Class 2 Magical Beast Mount that was adept at running. After traveling for an entire day, he had already traveled over a thousand miles. Only in the evening did he finally stop at a 2nd Rank City called Blue Rich City.
After entering the city, Jianchen first found an inn to stay in for the time being. He then went to the dining area on the first floor and casually ordered a few dishes to appease his hunger.
The sky was gradually darkening, and it was already past dinner time. Thus, there weren't many people eating on the first floor of the inn. There were only twenty or so empty tables in the large space, and a few waiter were busying himself all over the place.
Suddenly, a large group of armored soldiers escorting carriages filled with large metal chests stopped outside the inn. Following that, several middle-aged men in armor walked in with majestic steps. On the right side of their armor was an identical emblem. The emblem on the emblem was actually a miniature version of the national emblem of the Blue Wind Kingdom.
"Waiter, hurry up and bring us some food. Prepare some more tables for us." One of the middle-aged men in armor called out as soon as he walked into the inn. The other middle-aged men swept their sharp gazes over the few remaining guests in the inn.
"Alright, sirs, please, please take a seat. We will immediately bring the best wine and meat. We guarantee that sirs will be satisfied." When the waiter saw the emblems on their chests, his expression abruptly changed. He didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest and immediately welcomed them with a face full of enthusiasm.
The middle-aged men in armor didn't say anything else. They directly walked to a table and sat down. Afterwards, people in armor continuously walked in from outside. There were around a hundred people in total, and the entire dining hall was filled to the brim. Everyone was silent and didn't say anything. They seemed very disciplined.
With the arrival of this group of people, some of the diners who were still chatting in the inn also quieted down in an instant. Although the entire first floor of the inn was filled with people, it was strangely quiet and the atmosphere was somewhat strange.
