Everyone was stunned when they saw this figure enter the main hall. This was because many Heavenly Venerates present recognized this person.
"Heaven City City Lord!"
Everyone's expression changed slightly. Although there was no clear ranking among the ten City Lords of the Era Battlefield, it seemed that all ten of them were on equal footing.
But in fact, whether it was the original ranking set by the Lord of Fortune Creation or the tacit agreement of everyone, it was always Heaven, Earth, Black, Yellow, Universe, Chaos, Sun, and Moon. Some clues could be seen from the order of the names. Although the strength of each City Lord might not be the same in different eras, the Heaven City City Lord was definitely the strongest among the ten City Lords.
Generally speaking, the top powerhouses were still at the same level, but there were also strong and weak people at the same level. The Heaven City City Lord was recognized by everyone as unfathomable.
When they saw him appear, the East, South, West, and West Holy Masters, as well as the Space-Time Holy Master, began to show serious expressions because they knew that this person was indeed extraordinary.
Ye Xiwen suddenly saw a smile on the Sun City City Lord's face. Why did he show a happy expression when others were worried about the Heaven City City Lord's appearance?
If he wanted to fight for the position of Middle Heavenly Venerate, then the Middle Heavenly Venerate that had rushed over would undoubtedly be his strongest opponent. However, now that he was showing such an expression, there was only one possibility. He had never wanted to fight for the position of Middle Heavenly Venerate.
This kind of situation wasn't impossible. Although everyone coveted the position of a Medium Empyrean, there was only one position. Some people believed that their chances weren't high, so it was likely that they would give up and support someone else to obtain greater benefits.
This was not impossible!
After the Heaven City City Lord came in, he immediately sat in the middle. Although the 15 thrones didn't specify who sat where, there was a tacit agreement. The fact that the Heaven City City Lord sat on one of the thrones was a clear indication of something.
Ye Xiwen had a feeling that the Heaven City City Lord would become the biggest obstacle for the East Holy Master to ascend to the Heaven City Lord's position.
Domineering, undisguised ambition for the position of Middle Empyrean. Even though the other God Cities' City Lords hadn't arrived yet, he had still arrived. His intention to participate in the competition was already very obvious.
After the initial shock, the Eastern Heavenly Venerate reacted immediately. Then, he said, "So it's Fellow Daoist. Why? Does Fellow Daoist also covet the Middle Heavenly Venerate position?"
The Lord of Heaven City smiled and leaned his head against the back of the chair. "Yes, I do, but so what?"
"Do you have any thoughts? In that case, let's face them head-on! "The Eastern Heavenly Sovereign said fearlessly. At their level of cultivation, who would be afraid of anyone?
In any case, everyone's goal was very clear, so there was no point in playing some tricks. They could only directly reveal their trump cards. When the time came, whoever was stronger would naturally become an Empyrean.
"That's true. There's no point in playing tricks!" The City Lord of Heaven City had a smile on his face. He was also extremely confident, even more so than the Eastern Lord.
Upon hearing the City Lord of Heaven City say this, everyone who was interested in becoming a Middle Heavenly Venerate began to get excited.
As for the matter regarding the City Lord of Moon City, they had already forgotten about it. The City Lord of Heaven City had only taken a moment to reverse the situation that Ye Xiwen and the Eastern Heavenly Venerate had set up together.
However, there were still some good points about the City Lord of Moon City. It was just that the City Lord of Heaven City's interference had temporarily delayed these doubts. In any case, the City Lord of Moon City had already been eliminated in this selection.
Even if there was only a small point of doubt, no one would allow the person he recommended to become a Middle Heavenly Venerate. This was related to everyone's safety.
Since ancient times, how could they not know the miserable fate of the Heavenly Venerates who had their lair invaded?
Time and Space Heavenly Venerate stepped forward and said, "Fellow Daoists, I am Time and Space Heavenly Venerate. I believe that everyone should be familiar with me. For a long time, I have been a Middle Heavenly Venerate and ruled the Central Region. Therefore, I believe that I am qualified to become a Middle Heavenly Venerate!"
The Heavenly Venerates were moved by Time and Space Heavenly Venerate's words. It was obvious that they were aware of the previous situation. Ruling the vast and boundless Central Region wasn't a simple matter.
However, if he wanted to gain their approval with just this level, it would probably not be enough.
Just as everyone thought that the East, South, West, and West Heavenly Venerates were going to speak up and fight for their support, the City Lord of Heaven City suddenly interjected.
He didn't give Time and Space Heavenly Venerate any face, which made Time and Space Heavenly Venerate's face turn ugly.
"Alright, I don't want to waste any more time here. I'll just say it directly. The reason no one else came today is because the other City Lords of the 10 Great Divine Cities all support me in becoming a Middle Heavenly Venerate!"
Just as everyone was waiting to see what kind of trump card the City Lord of Heaven City would play, the trump card he played shook everyone's spirits and they nearly fainted.
Everyone knew that since the City Lord of Heaven City had appeared, he definitely had a trump card in his hand. However, no one had expected him to have such a big trump card. This was simply a joke.
Any City Lord of the 10 Great Divine Cities was qualified to become a Middle Heavenly Venerate. Whether it was their foundation or the contributions they had made to the Fortune God Dynasty over the years, they weren't inferior to the East, West, West, and West Heavenly Venerates. Although Time and Space Heavenly Venerate was considered old, he was undoubtedly lacking compared to these veterans.
Initially, everyone had thought that there would be a fierce internal struggle between the 10 Great Divine Cities and that it wouldn't be so easy to determine the winner.
They had wanted to see the Heavenly Venerates' trump card.
They hadn't expected that the City Lord of Heaven City's trump card would be a decisive blow.
The Southern Heavenly Venerate, Western Heavenly Venerate, North Heavenly Venerate, Time and Space Heavenly Venerate, and the others were completely dumbfounded. The 10 Great Divine Cities collectively supporting a City Lord of Heaven City could be said to have gathered almost half of the Fortune God Dynasty's strength.
Under such circumstances, it wouldn't be difficult for the City Lord of Heaven City to become a Middle Heavenly Venerate.
"He's trapped in his own web after all!"
The corners of the Southern Heavenly Venerate's mouth curved into a bitter smile. The City Lord of Heaven City was just one person. He wouldn't care even if he had the support of one or two City Lords. However, due to the appearance of the Heaven Splitting Demonic Axe, he didn't have much time left. Hence, he didn't have the time to make any contributions after arriving here, let alone make a contribution that would convince everyone.
The reason why Time and Space Heavenly Venerate wanted to be the first to make a move was because he was the weakest among the competitors. At this time, he naturally had to be the first to make a move.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even have a chance to make a move when the others made a move.
The foundations and trump cards of others were obviously deeper than his, so he could only make a move first.
As for the Southern Heavenly Venerate, the Western Heavenly Venerate, the Northern Heavenly Venerate, and the others, they felt that their contributions were enough to fight for. At the very least, they weren't any worse than the others.
However, the words of the City Lord of Heaven City immediately made them speechless.
The strength and foundation of the City Lord of Heaven City were second to none. Coupled with the support of the other City Lords, victory was almost within his grasp.
"So this is the reason why the City Lord of Sun City has been delaying for time!" Ye Xiwen's heart brightened. Many things that he didn't understand before were now clear. The reason why the City Lord of Sun City had been delaying for time was to wait for the arrival of the City Lord of Heaven City. The reason why the City Lord of Heaven City had finally arrived was probably because he was exchanging benefits with the other City Lords.
The other City Lords were at the same level as the City Lord of Heaven City. Any one of them wasn't that easy to deal with. In order to obtain the support of the other City Lords, the City Lord of Heaven City had paid a huge price.
However, as long as he could become a Middle Heavenly Venerate in the end, everything would be worth it. The power of a Middle Heavenly Venerate was too great.
It was likely that after a fierce confrontation, the City Lord of Heaven City won.
The Great Heavenly Venerates of the Fortune God Dynasty had come in a threatening manner, wanting to force the ten Divine Cities to agree to select a Middle Heavenly Venerate. However, the ten Divine Cities' City Lords weren't ordinary people. How could they be so easily threatened? They must have secretly colluded with each other.
Even now, the Great Heavenly Venerates of the Fortune God Dynasty were still fighting for themselves. They had obviously fallen behind in this aspect.
The Great Heavenly Venerates of the Fortune God Dynasty felt their faces burning. They had been tricked by the ten Divine Cities. They had come in a threatening manner, wanting to force the ten Divine Cities to agree to select a Middle Heavenly Venerate. They hadn't expected that they would be defeated. Now, the City Lord of Heaven City, who had obtained the support of the other City Lords of the ten Divine Cities, had an absolute advantage.
Whether it was the Southern Heavenly Venerate, Western Heavenly Venerate, Northern Heavenly Venerate, or Space-Time Heavenly Venerate, all of them understood that they had suffered a crushing defeat. Their contributions weren't as big as the City Lord's, but the support they could obtain was far less than the City Lord's.
There was a faint smile on the City Lord's face as he said, "I have already obtained the support of the other Divine Cities' City Lords. Now, I want to become a Middle Heavenly Venerate. I think none of you have any objections, right? With my strength and experience, there is no one more suitable than me. What do you all think?"
The City Lord of Heaven City looked at the Eastern Heavenly Venerate and the others, feeling incomparably carefree in his heart. Previously, the Fortune God Dynasty's Great Heavenly Venerates had joined forces to force him to abdicate, and he had almost been caught off guard. Now, he was merely giving them a taste of their own medicine.
Thinking of the price he had to pay to obtain their support, even he couldn't help feeling distressed. However, as long as he could become a Middle Heavenly Venerate, everything would be worth it.
Speaking of which, he still had to thank the Fortune God Dynasty's Heavenly Venerates. If it weren't for them forcing him to abdicate, the ten Divine Cities' City Lords wouldn't have yielded.
