Lian Cheng and Yang Tong said something, but they were all conventional words.
As soon as they finished speaking and sat down, two ancient yet different auras instantly filled the entire venue, causing an inexplicable sense of nervousness and wariness to arise in everyone.
"Lian Cheng is here to greet President Long and President Hei Yao!"
"Yang Tong is here to greet President Long and President Hei Yao!"
The two Spiritual Venerables in the late stage of the Spirit Detecting Realm stood up again with a respectful attitude.
If such a scene were to occur at any other time, it would definitely cause everyone's eyeballs to explode. However, at this moment, it seemed to be a matter of course, because two figures had appeared in the two empty seats beside the two of them. One of them wore a black robe and a black hat, and the other wore a white robe that fluttered about.
The auras of the two of them were very unique, like light and mist. They were just sitting there, but they gave off an illusory feeling.
"Clones, they are definitely clones."
Some cultivators were already discussing in low voices.
"It seems President Hei Yao has really reached the Empty God Realm. Our Northern Sand Region has another Empty God Realm Venerable!"
"Senior Hei Yao's aura is slightly weaker than Sect Leader Long's. It seems he has just reached the Empty God Realm."
Fortunately, Qin Feng was not here. Otherwise, they would be worried to death. They did not expect Sect Leader Long to be an Empty God Realm Venerable. It was not just a rumor.
In front of an Empty God Realm Venerable, Qin Feng admitted he could not fight back. The Hundred Miles Light Sniper, the Level Four Trap Formation, the Heaven Bell, and the Zhenyi Sword with Divine Consciousness Attack were all rubbish. Qin Fen even wondered if he had the chance to hide in the Astral World.
Empty God Realm and Spirit Detecting Realm were two completely different realms, and their strengths were as different as heaven and earth. The appearance of Sect Leader Long and Hei Yao's clones was enough to make Lian Cheng and Yang Tong breathless.
"Sect Leader Long, Senior Hei Yao, can we start this year's Merchant City Chamber of Commerce?" Lian Cheng was asking for their opinion.
Hei Yao said, "Yes."
Before Lian Cheng could make the official announcement, Sect Leader Long's indifferent voice was heard, "Wait a minute. It will start in half an hour."
Actually, Sect Master Long did not have anything else to say. This half an incense's time was to deliberately anger Black Radiance. In recent years, the Black Radiance Chamber of Commerce had been developing rapidly, and there was a faint momentum to surpass the Dragon Ascension Chamber of Commerce. The disciples of both sides were constantly fighting each other, and as the leaders of the two chambers, they naturally had to disgust each other when they met. Hei Yao was truly disgusted. When Sect Master Long gave the order, Lian Cheng pretended to be ignorant and sat at the side, not daring to announce the opening of the Chamber of Commerce. The cultivators below the stage did not dare to speak. The atmosphere in the room was a little heavy. Although they could not see Hei Yao's face under the black hat, they could guess that he was not in a good mood.
Half an incense stick's time passed quickly, and Sect Master Long's voice rang out, "Alright, let's begin!"
Liancheng seemed to have suddenly come back to life. He put on a smiling face and said, "Yes, Sect Master Long."
Then, he turned around and swept his gaze across the crowd in the room. "Fellow cultivators, the Merchant City's Chamber of Commerce this year has officially begun. The rules and procedures of the Chamber of Commerce are the same as in previous years. Now, we will proceed with the first event of the Chamber of Commerce, business demonstration."
Following Lian Cheng's words, the crowd in the Myriad Merchant House immediately boiled over.
At this moment, there were five to six thousand cultivators gathered in the entire Myriad Merchant House. These people were the representatives of the various chambers of commerce in the Northern Sand Region. They were here to display their strength and raise their reputation.
There was already a row of people standing below the guest seats. They were the cultivators of the four major chambers of commerce, and they were responsible for recording the business information of the various chambers of commerce. The status of these recording personnel was not low either. They were basically the elders of the four major chambers of commerce, and even Long Aotian was among them.
"Senior judge, our White Tiger Chamber of Commerce's business is very extensive. It includes the sale of elixirs, spiritual weapons, teleportation, breaking through protectors, mediation, and more than ten other types of business."
"I'm the leader of the Three Luminaries Chamber of Commerce. Our chamber of commerce has specialized smiths who can customize spiritual weapons and sell talismans."
"The Five Floor Mountain Chamber of Commerce has only been established for five years, but it has developed rapidly like a dark horse. Now, its teleportation business is very extensive, and it has already connected dozens of market squares as teleportation points."
"Speaking of our Tianshan Chamber of Commerce, it is the seventh largest chamber of commerce in the Northern Sand Region …"
The Myriad Traders Building was very lively, and it looked like a scene of hundreds of flowers blooming.
Tens of thousands of cultivators had gathered outside the Myriad Traders Building. They were all people who had come from various places to watch the chamber of commerce. Someone had set up a formation in the void, and the situation inside the Myriad Traders Building was being displayed in the void, just like a live broadcast on Earth.
"Which force do you think will be the champion of this year's chamber of commerce?"
"Is there a need to guess? The Soaring Dragon Chamber of Commerce will definitely be the number one chamber of commerce in the Northern Sand Region. Why don't we guess which chamber of commerce among the current top ten chambers of commerce will be eliminated?"
"The White Dew Chamber of Commerce, which is ranked tenth, is in danger. I haven't seen them develop much in the past five years, and their reputation is no longer what it used to be. On the other hand, the Five Floor Mountain Chamber of Commerce has been developing rapidly in the past few years, and it is very likely that they will be among the new top ten chambers of commerce."
"I have high hopes for the Flying Cloud Chamber of Commerce. Although it has only been established for three years, there are rumors that the leader of the Flying Cloud Chamber of Commerce is a True Spirit Level Spiritual Venerable, and his hidden identity is the leader of the five-star Flying Cloud Sect, Senior Flying Cloud …"
"There's such a thing? Looks like I'm too naive. This year's chamber of commerce is full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons. It's hard to predict the ranking until the last moment! "
The discussions outside the venue were even crazier, surging like a tsunami.
There was a soundproof formation in the Myriad Traders Building, so the people inside could not hear what was going on outside.
The first segment of the chamber of commerce, "Business Introduction," had been tabulated. Sect Leader Long and the other three special guests were looking through the results and giving each chamber of commerce a score.
According to the rules of the previous years, the chamber of commerce would have a total of three segments, and the total score for each segment would be 10 points. The final ranking would be based on the sum of the three segments' scores. To be fair, each segment would be scored by the four special guests together, and the average score would be used as the final score.
Although Qin Feng was not there yet, the president of the Nanxuan Chamber of Commerce, Si Nan, was representing the Huaxia Chamber of Commerce for the time being. When President Si Nan saw that the score of the Huaxia Chamber of Commerce was zero, he was dumbfounded.
"The first round of scoring has ended. Let me announce the names of the chambers of commerce that have been forced to withdraw."
"The Thousand Leaves Chamber of Commerce has withdrawn! Any doubts? "
Yang Tong read the name list in his hand. He would pause after every name, waiting for the chamber of commerce to express their opinions. In fact, the Merchant City Chamber of Commerce did not have an elimination system. No matter how low your score was, you would at most be ranked at the bottom. There was only one reason why you would be forced to withdraw: you had violated the rules set by the chamber of commerce.
"No."
After a while, a weak voice came from below the stage. It was the president of the Thousand Leaves Chamber of Commerce.
Many people began to discuss in whispers. They already knew that the Thousand Leaves Chamber of Commerce must have cheated in the first round of the competition, lying about undeveloped projects to pull their score.
"The Great Tang Chamber of Commerce, the Northern Mountain Chamber of Commerce, the Dragon Leaping Heaven Chamber of Commerce …"
"The Huaxia Chamber of Commerce has been forced to withdraw. Any of the chambers of commerce mentioned above, any doubts?"
