The middle-aged man nodded to his companion and brought Zhao Yuande into the city.
"Young master, my name is Cha Jun. Call me Old Cha." The middle-aged man introduced himself and asked, "May I know where you wish to go, young master?"
"Yes! I wish to comprehend the Dao of Sharpness, but I don't know where to start. Cha Jun, do you have any suggestions? "Zhao Yuande asked.
"Yes! This … "Cha Jun frowned and pondered for a moment," There's a training tower in our City of Shame. It's split into nine levels, and is the only thing that our ancestors managed to snatch from the surface. As long as you're from the City of Shame, you can explore it. The Dao of Metal within is ten times thicker than the outside world. If you wish to comprehend the Dao of Sharpness, the training tower should be the easiest. "
"To think that there's such a good place!" Zhao Yuande's eyes lit up, "Let's go! Bring me there!"
"This …" Cha Jun hesitated for a moment. "I'll have to ask Lord Kurocang for instructions. Young master, you're not from our City of Shame. If you wish to enter the training tower, I'm afraid you'll have to seek his permission."
"No worries! Go ahead!" Zhao Yuande waved his hand dismissively.
However, he was laughing coldly in his heart. This Cha Jun was obviously sent by Kurocang to keep an eye on them.
"Lord Kurocang has agreed!" Cha Jun's face lit up with joy, "Young master, please follow me!"
A nine-storey pagoda, shining with golden light, quickly appeared before Zhao Yuande. A powerful aura of metal permeated the surroundings of the pagoda.
There were countless tall buildings surrounding the training tower. They were much taller than the training tower, and looked much more majestic.
But in Zhao Yuande's eyes, all the other buildings paled in comparison to the training tower.
There were countless youths surrounding the training tower. Many of them were looking excitedly at a gigantic stone tablet in front of the training tower.
The stone tablet was tens of feet tall, and was embedded right next to the entrance of the training tower. On it, there were many names.
At the top of the tablet, there was a name that shone with a golden glow. Jin Lin!
Below this name were two other names, Hei Ming and Sun Gui!
The names that followed were as densely packed as ants. It was a dazzling sight.
"Sigh! Look, Jin Liang's name … has risen all the way to the 320th place! "Someone suddenly pointed at a name that was constantly flashing and shouted excitedly.
"Jin Liang! Jin Liang, who had just entered the Trial Tower? That's not possible! He has only been in there for two hours. Could it be that he has already passed the fifth level? "
"Yes, that's him! He was the third genius of the Palace of Vengeance. He had just returned from hunting non-humankind beings, and had already reached the early stage of the sixth minor step! He's a rare genius in our City of Shame! "
"The third genius of the Palace of Vengeance … is indeed extraordinary!"
"The number one prodigy of the Vengeance Palace has been missing for three months, and the number two prodigy was severely injured when he went out to hunt the foreign races. I thought they would be suppressed by the other two palaces, but I didn't expect Jin Liang to appear!"
"Do you think Jin Liang has any hope of entering the seventh level? As long as he enters the seventh level, he will be able to enter the top 50. This time, not only will the Palace of Vengeance not be suppressed, but it will also crush the other two palaces!"
"How can it be so easy? It's not like you don't know the difficulty of the sixth level of the Trial Tower. Without the combat strength to challenge those of a higher level, it's impossible to pass."
"It's just challenging those of a higher level. Is it so difficult?"
"What do you know … it's not difficult to challenge those of a higher level. The difficult part is to challenge those of the same level …"
"…"
Zhao Yuande listened to everyone's discussion and curiously looked at that name.
"Young Master, you can also go in and try. I think you should be able to enter the seventh level." Cha Jun revealed a smile at this moment. He looked at Zhao Yuande with a trace of anticipation in his eyes.
His voice was very loud, and he didn't deliberately hide it. It was obvious that he wanted everyone to hear.
When everyone heard Cha Jun's words, they all turned their heads to Zhao Yuande. Their eyes were filled with doubt and confusion.
"Cha Jun! You're spouting nonsense here again. The number one genius of the Snow Shame Palace is only ranked 78th. "
"Cha Jun, do you still remember how badly the Snow Shame Palace lost the last time?"
"Don't brag here …"
"You don't know what you're talking about! The Snow Shame Palace is the number one palace. The City Governor is our Palace Master. How dare you scoundrels criticize him! "Cha Jun couldn't help but reveal a trace of anger when he heard so many people insulting the Snow Shame Palace.
"What bullsh * t City Governor? We don't even acknowledge him! He abandoned his comrades and fled back to the City of Shame alone … "Someone pointed at Cha Jun and shouted angrily.
"That's right! A coward like a mouse dares to call himself the City Governor? Pfft … "Someone else revealed a look of disdain.
"You … you … you're talking nonsense!" Cha Jun's face darkened. "The City Master returned with a grudge because he wanted to preserve his strength. Otherwise, without an expert on the ninth small step to guard the City of Shame, the City of Shame would soon be conquered by the alien race!"
"Don't make it sound so dignified …"
"Shut up! How dare you talk nonsense about the City Governor? Hurry up and go into seclusion! " At this moment, a plain-clothed middle-aged man appeared in front of the Trial Tower. Although his tone was angry, his expression didn't change much. He only looked at Zhao Yuande and sized him up.
The people who were scolding the City Governor immediately lowered their heads like mice seeing a cat when they saw the plain-clothed man appear. They turned around and left obediently.
However, these people still looked at Cha Jun with disdain. They didn't restrain themselves at all because of the plain-clothed man's words.
"Damn it …" Cha Jun looked at those people angrily, but he didn't dare to do anything.
"Cha Jun, who is this person? Why haven't I seen him before? "The plain-clothed man looked at Zhao Yuande and asked faintly.
"Elder Qiu, this is the City Governor's friend." At this moment, Cha Jun was secretly regretting it. If he had known that he would meet this person, he wouldn't have put himself in the limelight.
Now, not only did he not benefit the Snow Shame Palace, but he might even be scolded by the Vice Palace Master.
"Hehe! So you're the City Governor's friend! "The plain-clothed man looked at Zhao Yuande with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Although a young man on the sixth stage was considered a genius, he shouldn't be called a friend by that person. It seemed that this young man had an extraordinary background.
Could he be …? The plain-clothed man's eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
"Greetings, senior," Zhao Yuande cupped his hands and said with a smile, "May I enter the Trial Tower?"
"Since you're the City Governor's friend, there's naturally no problem!" The plain-clothed man made an inviting gesture and stepped aside.
