Finally, after traveling for an entire afternoon, Lu An followed the convoy into Purple Lake City in the evening.
When he arrived at the city gate of Purple Lake City, he was once again shocked.
The walls of Purple Lake City were at least ten feet high, comparable to the walls of Tiancheng Country's imperial capital. What was even more unusual was that the walls were all made of steel, without a trace of soil or stone. From the inside out, it was solid.
The city gate was also three feet wide. Looking in from the outside, it gave off an extremely oppressive feeling. Outside the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city were also wearing steel armor. Their entire bodies were wrapped up tightly, only their eyes were exposed.
Lu An sucked in a breath of cold air at such a scale.
However, what really shocked Lu An was yet to come.
When he successfully entered Purple Lake City with the convoy, he was shocked to find that every building here was made of steel.
Every single one of the lofty pavilions was made of steel. Even the stone slabs on the ground were the same, completely paved with steel. This caused the ground to be extremely flat and spotless!
More importantly, the entire city was almost the same color, the color of steel!
After entering the city, Lu An left the convoy. He stood in the city and looked at the surrounding scenery in shock. Every pavilion was so tall that he had never seen it before. These tall buildings stood tall, almost covering the sky and the sun.
However, the people who lived here were still in an orderly manner. People walked on the streets, talking and laughing, as if they were already used to life here. Moreover, after looking around for a while, he found that the men and women here were very equal. They had to bow to each other when they met.
At this moment, the moon had already appeared in the sky. Looking at the exceptionally cold moon in the city, Lu An frowned slightly and found an inn to stay in first.
After asking a few passers-by, Lu An quickly found an inn. When he stood in front of the inn, he raised his head and looked at the incomparably tall pavilion.
Living on the top of the mountain should be a unique experience, right?
Thinking of this, Lu An no longer hesitated and walked in. The person who received him was a very beautiful woman. When she saw Lu An walking over, she said politely, "Excuse me, how can I help you?"
"Stay in the inn." Lu An said.
"Okay." The woman smiled and quickly settled the matter for Lu An. The rooms here were more expensive than outside, but just looking at the pavilion, it was worth it.
Soon, Lu An arrived at the pavilion. Lu An originally thought that it would be very troublesome to climb from the bottom to the top, but it was completely different. There was a raised platform here, and at the bottom of the platform, there was a crystal core. Beside the platform, there was a Heavenly Master who was in charge of raising and lowering the platform.
When Lu An stood on top of it, the platform quickly rose up. In just a few breaths of time, he had risen to the height of a pavilion that was twenty feet tall. When Lu An walked into the building and looked back, he still felt incredulous.
Walking into the building, the Heavenly Master's a guest room. Lu An looked at the luxurious guest room. It was not much different from the outside, so he was relieved.
He ordered a simple dinner for the maid. After thinking about it, he took out some gold and said, "I want to ask you something. Can I?"
When the maid saw the heavy gold in Lu An's hand, she smiled and said, "Of course you can. It's my duty to serve the guests."
Lu An smiled and handed the gold to the maid and asked, "Actually, I came here because I heard from other countries that the Purple Lake here has a great opportunity. I don't know if there are any rules in the Purple Lake. Can I go there myself?"
After the maid took the gold from Lu An, she heard Lu An's question and could not help but be startled. She looked at Lu An from head to toe and asked, "Are you a Heavenly Master?"
Lu An, hearing this, nodded and said with a smile, "I'm just a Level 1 Heavenly Master. I came here to try my luck."
When the maid heard Lu An's words, she could not help but be surprised. Even if he was a Level 1 Heavenly Master, Lu An's age was too young. Suddenly, the maid looked at Lu An in a different way.
Strength was always the best thing.
"To answer your question, outsiders are not allowed to enter the Purple Lake. It is managed by the City Lord's Mansion. Anyone who wants to enter the Purple Lake must go to the City Lord's Mansion to apply. Otherwise, they will not be able to enter. "The maid said respectfully.
"Application?" Lu An was startled and asked, "How do I apply? Is it easy to apply?"
"If you want to apply, you can go directly to the City Lord's Mansion. In the City Lord's Mansion, there is a special place for applications. The application condition is that the person who enters must be a Heavenly Master and pay a fee of one thousand gold. " The maid said, "However, the review process will take two months. Moreover, the entire process of entering the Purple Lake can only be done at the periphery of the Purple Lake."
"What?" When Lu An heard this, he immediately frowned. The review would take two months. He did not have that much time to waste here.
"Then may I ask, is there any other way to enter the Purple Lake?" Lu An thought for a while and asked again.
"There is a way, but it is a little difficult." The maid said, "There are three other ways. The first way is for you to become a member of the City Lord's Mansion and be used by the City Lord's Mansion. The Purple Lake will naturally be opened for you."
When he heard this, Lu An frowned even more. Naturally, he would not stay here. This had nothing to do with him. He asked, "What about the other two ways?"
"The second way is for every family or Chamber of Commerce in the Purple Lake City to have a chance to enter the Purple Lake City. If you can get them to give you a chance, you can also enter. However, these families treat the quota as a treasure. "
"…" When Lu An heard this, he frowned slightly. It was naturally difficult to get a quota from the hands of others. He asked, "What about the last way?"
"The third way is a little more difficult." The maid said, "Every three months, the City Lord will open the Purple Lake. At that time, everyone who came here from all over the world would participate in a competition. Only those who are in the top three will have a chance. "
"A chance?" Lu An was stunned and asked, "Does that mean I can go to the Purple Lake?"
"Of course not." The maid smiled and said, "It's just that if there's a chance, the City Lord will send someone to evaluate the three of you. Only those who have been evaluated can enter. Sometimes, the City Lord himself will evaluate you! "
When he heard the maid's words, Lu An could not help but be stunned.
Evaluation?
Entering the Purple Lake required an evaluation?
When Lu An heard this, he frowned. He did not think that entering the Purple Lake would be so troublesome. He thought that he could enter simply by coming here. Moreover, the Purple Lake looked very big. Could it be that all the entrances were blocked and there was no other way to enter?
The maid seemed to have seen through Lu An's emotions and said politely, "Dear guest, I have to remind you that many guests have thought of sneaking into the Purple Lake. However, none of them have come out alive."
When Lu An heard this, his heart trembled and he raised his head to look at the maid.
The maid's expression was normal. She only had a smile on her face, but the warning in her eyes was very obvious. Furthermore, from the maid's tone, it did not seem like she was lying.
It seemed that the City Lord's Mansion really did have a way to control the entire Pure Lake.
When he thought of this, Lu An took a deep breath and asked the maid, "May I ask when the next competition is?"
"In half a month. It's not too late to register now." The maid smiled and said, "However, I have something to remind you. Most of the people who participate in the competition are Level Three and Level Four Heavenly Masters. Even Level Five Heavenly Masters occasionally have the opportunity to join in the fun. Therefore, I don't think you should think too much about the competition. It's better to apply. "
When Lu An heard this, his heart sank. However, he smiled and said, "I understand. Thank you for the reminder."
When the maid heard this, she revealed her signature smile and said, "I will be on duty in the corridor outside. If you need me, call me at any time."
Lu An smiled and said, "Okay."
