The competition began!
Early the next morning, just as the sky brightened, many Martial Warriors s left their residences and gathered towards the central plaza of the Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City from all directions.
As soon as they arrived at their destination, everyone discovered that after a night, the area had changed greatly.
On the wide plaza, there were at least thousands of iron tables neatly arranged. On the north side of the plaza, a platform about two meters tall had already been built.
On the high platform, a row of seats was arranged.
Sitting there, one could look down from above and see all the movements in the plaza.
A red line had already been drawn around the thousands of iron tables. Everyone knew that they could not cross the red line while watching the competition. Otherwise, they would be severely punished.
Time flew, and more and more people gathered outside the red line.
When Tang Huan rushed over, what he saw was a sea of people rubbing shoulders with each other. Such a scene really gave him a fright.
Although he had signed up to participate in the "Artifact Forging Competition", he did not expect it to be so grand.
According to Tang Huan's memories, the previous "Artifact Forging Competition" would probably only have tens of thousands of people watching, but right now, there were probably more than a hundred thousand people gathered here.
This was before the competition had even begun. Perhaps even more people would rush over.
Tang Huan recalled the instructions he received when he registered and walked towards the right side of the high platform in the north of the plaza. There, a square area was marked out with a red line, with a length and width of about a hundred meters.
This was the gathering place for the participating artificers.
When Tang Huan stepped into the red line area, he couldn't help but take in a deep breath.
There were probably more than a thousand artificers in this place. They were either sitting cross-legged on the ground, resting with their eyes closed, or whispering to each other in groups of twos and threes. They were all young men and women, and there were even little fellows who looked to be only eleven or twelve years old. Such a brat was also a low-level artificer?
"If you want to stand out in this kind of Artifact Forging Competition, the difficulty is extraordinary."
Tang Huan's eyes swept across the crowd, then looked at the rows of iron tables in the plaza, and couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, at the edge of the plaza, in the most famous "Return Inn" restaurant in the Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City, a thin old man was leading a beautiful young woman from the mountain to a private room on the fifth floor.
This woman was Shan Shan.
"Miss, this room on the fifth floor is the most suitable for watching the competition. This old servant has already issued an order that the fifth floor is not open to the public today, so no one will come to disturb you. Young Mistress can rest assured here, and you can tell this old servant if you need anything, "the thin old man said in a respectful manner.
"Hu Bo, sorry to trouble you." Shan Shan said with a smile.
"This is what this old servant should do."
The thin old man smiled respectfully and said, "This old servant just ordered some food and wine to be served on the table. Please enjoy, Miss. If Miss has no other instructions, this old servant will take his leave first. "
Shan Shan nodded slightly, and the old man bowed and retreated, closing the door.
"Yiya!"
From the cloth bag in Shan Shan's hand, Xiao Budian's little blue head popped out.
Sitting by the window of the private room, Shan Shan's gaze looked towards the right side of the stage to search for Tang Huan's figure. Xiao Budian also stuck his head out from the window to watch. In such an occasion, it was not appropriate for Xiao Budian to appear. Tang Huan had originally told her to stay at home and watch over it, but in the end, she still couldn't help but want to come over to take a look.
Very quickly, she caught sight of that familiar figure, and a faint blush involuntarily surfaced on her white and tender cheeks.
Including the two times in the maze realm forest, last night was already the third time Tang Huan had saved her.
Under the blazing heat, her consciousness quickly fell into a trance. From start to finish, she did not know how Tang Huan had saved her. When she woke up this morning, she discovered that although she was covered with a blanket, her robes and undergarments were completely torn off. She guessed what kind of scene it was last night. It must have been like the cave in the maze realm forest, where this scoundrel had seen everything.
When she thought of that scene, Shan Shan's face burned with embarrassment, but towards Tang Huan, she really couldn't hate him.
After all, that situation was entirely caused by her own body.
"Yiya!"
A weak cry woke Shan Shan from his stupor.
In the blink of an eye, she realized that Xiao Budian had already slipped onto the table at some point in time, and had even poured all of the fruit wine into his stomach.
Although it was fruit wine, it would still get drunk. The little guy was already kicking left and right as he swayed unsteadily. His ears, eyes, and nostrils were all suffused with a faint red light. After forcefully holding on for a moment, it fell down with a putong sound. Its four limbs were spread out, and there were xiu xiu sounds coming from its nose.
"Drunk?"
Shan Shan laughed helplessly. Just as she put Xiao Budian, whose stomach was bulging, back into the cloth bag, her attention was attracted by the earth-shaking sounds outside.
Around the plaza, countless people were shouting. It was like a tsunami, the sound waves overflowing the sky.
A group of people had already filed up to the high platform on the north side and took their seats one after another. It was them, causing the surrounding people to cheer. The people up there were all important figures.
"Look, look, that's the Green Leaf Pavilion Master and Senior Mu Kui. It's said that both of them are high ranking Weapon Refiner s."
"Tsk tsk, why are the Patriarchs of the three great clans of Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City here as well?"
"This is the Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City, when did the Patriarchs of the three great families not show up?"
"Those two seem to be the generals who just withdrew from the 'Plain between Two Continents'. What a heavy killing intent."
"Who is that old man? And the person in white beside him is also very unfamiliar. "
"You don't even know them, you are truly ignorant and ill-informed. The one in white is the youngest Weapon Refining Master in our Glory Continent, Wu Xin. However, he rarely went out, and basically stayed in the Heavenly Forging City. That old man is the former Pavilion Master of the Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City, Great Master Gu Yi. "
"Wu Xin? Gu Yi? There are actually two Weapon Refining Master in charge of this competition? "
"..."
Around the plaza, countless people were discussing.
And on the right side of the stage, when Tang Huan saw a middle-aged man with a square face who looked rather dignified, his eyes turned dark.
If Tang Huan was not mistaken, that man was the Tang Family's Patriarch, Tang Tianren. Although Tang Huan's current soul originally had nothing to do with him, after occupying this body, he had fused with the young Tang Huan's memories and inherited the young Tang Huan's incomparable hatred for this heartless person.
"Everyone, silence!"
A tall and graceful green figure walked to the front of the stage, graceful and charming, it was the current Pavilion Master of the Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City, Qing Ye. Her voice was not loud, but it was extremely penetrating, every character was like rain hitting a banana, pearls falling onto a jade plate, instantly suppressing the surrounding noise.
