The next day, Black Wolf Conference.
Lu An woke up early in the morning. He had slept for six hours the previous night. At this moment, he felt full of energy and relaxed. After moving his body in the courtyard, he felt that he was in a very good state.
Not long after, Gao Sheng and He Gaoguo came over. When they saw that Lu An had already woken up, they were relieved. Gao Sheng asked Lu An, "How are your preparations?"
"Not bad." Lu An smiled and said, "I'm fine."
"That's good." Gao Sheng nodded and said, "Many people won't be able to sleep the day before the Black Wolf Conference. I'm afraid that you won't be able to rest well."
Soon, the three of them arrived at the courtyard together. To Lu An's surprise, the courtyard was already densely packed with people. From the looks of it, almost everyone in the Mountain Water Alliance was already here.
Chen Shuangdao and the other two alliance masters were also here. When they saw Lu An arrive, Chen Shuangdao smiled and said, "Other than leaving a few people in the north of the city to watch over the house, all the brothers of the Mountain Water Alliance are here to cheer for you!"
Everyone looked at Lu An, their eyes filled with encouragement. Lu An looked around and smiled at Chen Shuangdao. "I hope I won't disgrace the reputation of the Mountain Water Alliance."
"I've been waiting for you to say that!" Chen Shuangdao laughed and patted Lu An's shoulder. He said, "Let's go, let's go!"
Following that, more than a hundred people from the Mountain Water Alliance left the Mountain Water Alliance and headed straight for the Black Wolf Conference. With so many people walking on the streets, the surrounding commoners all looked over.
The Black Wolf Conference was in the center of the city, where the largest martial arts arena was. The martial arts arena was 260 feet long and wide, enough for people to use their fists and feet. Although the Black Wolf Conference was held once every three months, there were still many people who went to watch. After all, everyone had nothing to do and wanted to join in on the fun.
Early in the morning, many commoners came to the martial arts arena early in the morning to get a good spot. Therefore, when the sky was completely bright, there were already many people gathered around the martial arts arena. The huge square was completely surrounded by the crowd. When the people from the Mountain Water Alliance arrived, they could only stand outside.
But the good thing was that the Mountain Water Alliance was still one of the alliances. Their status was much higher than that of the commoners. The surrounding people sensibly made way for them. After all, ordinary people could not be on the same level as Celestial Masters.
The Mountain River Alliance was one of the earliest out of all the alliances. The other alliances were much slower. One by one, the guilds entered the arena. Of course, the Three Major Guilds were the ones that attracted the most attention.
When the Sacrificial Blood Alliance, the Iron Saber Alliance, and the Blood Symbol Alliance entered the square from three different directions, everyone made way for them. Led by the Vice Alliance Master of each Alliance, they strode towards the Hand Battle Arena.
The Three Major Alliances represented the highest power in Black Wolf City. Both the commoners and the Celestial Masters looked at them in awe. Finally, when the members of the Three Major Alliances stood still, the crowd burst into applause.
Following that, the host of the Black Wolf Assembly leaped onto the huge arena. He circulated his Heaven Origin Energy and spread his voice far and wide.
"All participants, please step onto the stage!"
As soon as he said that, everyone looked around excitedly. People from the various large alliances walked out from their ranks and arrived at the front of the line. They then leaped onto the stage.
In an instant, the number of people on the Hand Battle Arena increased dramatically. Lu An, who was at the front of the Mountain River Alliance, did not hesitate. After gesturing to the three Alliance Masters, he also leaped onto the Hand Battle Arena.
After half an hour, more than sixty people had gathered on the Hand Battle Arena. Under the host's quick and practiced calculation, everyone was quickly divided into two levels according to their strength. They were the Level Two Celestial Master Group and the Level Three Celestial Master Group. There were no Level One or Level Four Celestial Masters participating.
Among them, there were twenty-seven people in the Level Two Celestial Master Group and thirty-nine in the Level Four Celestial Master Group. After the calculation, the host let everyone draw lots and then walked down the stage to wait. However, although it was called drawing lots, the host was actually giving them out one by one.
The host looked around, took a deep breath, and said loudly, "In the past, the Level Two Celestial Master Group would start first. However, for the sake of fairness, the Level Three Celestial Master Group will start first! "
As soon as he said that, the crowd burst into discussion. However, to these spectators, it did not matter who started first. They were just here to watch the show.
As for the various large alliances, they did not care about this kind of thing. However, everyone knew that the host must have been instructed by someone else. Otherwise, this kind of thing would not have happened.
When Lu An returned to the Mountain River Alliance's crowd, the surrounding people immediately surrounded him and asked, "Lu An, what number are you?"
Lu An spread out his lot and said, "Number One."
When everyone saw this, their bodies trembled. Chen Shuangdao's face immediately darkened. He turned to look at the host on the stage and said with gritted teeth, "It must be his doing!"
"That's right!" Pang Luguang also frowned and said in a low voice, "In the past, it was always by drawing lots. However, this time, he took the initiative to draw lots. He must have done something!"
When everyone on the Hand Battle Arena except for the host, the host looked around and said loudly, "I announce that the Black Wolf Tournament has officially begun! Now, let's invite Number One and Number Two to the stage! "
Whoa —
The audience burst into applause and cheered. As this was the opening battle, everyone gave the warmest applause.
"I'm going to the stage." Lu An said to the surrounding people.
"Be careful!" The Mountain River Alliance's people hurriedly cheered, "Do your best! We believe in you! "
Lu An smiled and didn't delay any longer as he leaped onto the arena. However, when he saw his opponent jump into the ring on the other side, his eyes narrowed.
The person who jumped onto the stage was none other than Wan Chong!
Wan Chong's reputation in Black Wolf City did not need to be mentioned. When everyone below the stage saw the young master of the Blood Thirst Alliance enter the stage, they burst into even more enthusiastic applause.
Amidst the loud cheers, Lu An looked at Wan Chong in the distance. It seemed that Wan Chong wanted to take his life while he was still not proficient in the Hand Battle Arena.
"You came as expected." Wan Chong looked at Lu An from afar and sneered, "Fortunately, I was worried that you would not dare to come because of your cowardice. This way, I can still look up to you."
Lu An looked at Wan Chong in the distance and did not say a word.
"I know that you are in the middle stage of level 3 and your strength is slightly higher than mine." Wan Chong saw Lu An's silence and thought that Lu An was looking down on him. He said with contempt, "But the Hand Battle Arena is different. Here, I will let you know what is called battle technique!"
As he spoke, Wan Chong's ring lit up, and a saber appeared in his hand. This blade was bright and shiny and it was not just for show. Lu An saw that this weapon was embedded with two crystal cores.
Even if he did not use his sky elemental energy or the power of the crystal cores, this weapon would still increase his strength by a large margin.
The host looked left and right and said to the two of them, "Victory or defeat will end when you admit defeat, leave the stage and die. In a battle, there will be life and death, it is up to fate. Do you understand?"
Lu An and Wan Chong nodded their heads. The host took a deep breath and announced loudly, "The first round officially begins!"
Hua — —
A tsunami of cheers erupted from the audience. Following the shouts, Wan Chong made his move.
With a blade in his right hand, he took a step forward and dashed towards Lu An! The distance between the two of them was a full ten feet. This distance was enough for him to gather his strength!
Even if he did not use his sky elemental energy, just the momentum alone was enough to move a Heavenly Master of the same level. On the other side, compared to the dashing Wan Chong, Lu An was still standing at the same spot. He looked calm as if nothing had happened.
Compared to the violent situation on the other side, this place was like a tranquil air.
"What is Lu An doing? Why isn't he dodging? "Hu Sheng looked at the situation on the stage and said anxiously," If he doesn't dodge now, it will be too late! "
He was not the only one who thought so. Everyone in the audience thought so too. When Wan Chong saw that Lu An was not moving, the contempt in his eyes became even more obvious. He sprinted with all his might and arrived in front of Lu An in an instant!
"Watch my blade!" Wan Chong roared and waved his blade. Just the speed alone was enough to cause the blade to be covered in a layer of flames as he slashed towards Lu An's neck!
If this blade landed, Lu An's head would definitely be separated from his body!
At this moment, Lu An finally made his move.
The moment before Wan Chong waved his hand, his body had already begun to lean backwards. The blade sliced across the air in front of him. At the same time, he had already lifted his leg and kicked towards Wan Chong's dantian.
