CHAPTER 727

Field of Arcana

Early in the morning, when the first ray of warm sunlight shone on the vast and majestic Broken Rock City, the usually deserted streets actually became somewhat endless today, as if there was a sea of people.

What was surprising was that most of the people in the crowd were dressed in loose black robes with golden emblems on their chests. These people were arcanists who were rarely seen.

Although Broken Rock City was considered a powerful super city, the number of arcanists in the city was naturally not small. However, most of the arcanists were in seclusion to research, cultivate, and refine crystals. They rarely appeared on the streets, which was why there were very few arcanists in the huge Broken Rock City.

However, today was rather strange. Arcanists, who were rarely seen in the past, could be seen everywhere on the streets of Broken Rock City. Their numbers had reached a terrifying level.

Five days had already passed. Those who were in the know knew that today was the day of the Broken Rock City's Arcane Arts Guild's Arcane Arts Ceremony. It was said that the rewards for this Arcane Arts Ceremony were extremely rich. There was actually an extremely rare item like a Grade Four Origin Array.

It was precisely because of the attraction of the Grade Four Origin Array that this year's Arcana Ceremony attracted the attention of even more arcanists. Apart from the local arcanists of Broken Rock City, even many arcanists from other cities were attracted by the generous rewards.

In the huge courtyard, Master Kuraki was pacing back and forth, his face full of anxiety. He muttered to himself, "It's been five days. Why hasn't Zhuowen come back yet?

Sigh!

Today is the day of the Arcana Ceremony. If this kid doesn't make it back in time, he'll probably be disqualified. "

Creak!

The door to the courtyard was suddenly opened, and three figures appeared at the entrance. The three figures were led by a purple-robed old man. His hair and beard were all white, and he wore a smile on his face. It was Grandmaster Xuanling, who had once stood together with Grandmaster Kuraki in the Arcane Guild. The two people beside Xuanling were naturally his disciples, Ouyang Yatao and Ouyang Xishui.

"Kuraki!

Today is the day of the Arcana Ceremony. Didn't you submit your disciple Zhuowen's name as well?

Let's go to the Arcane Arts Guild together today! "Xuanling's face was full of smiles as he walked towards Grandmaster Kuraki.

Beside her, Ouyang Yatao's expression was calm and steady as he meticulously followed behind Xuan Ling. On the other hand, Ouyang Xishui curled her lips. After entering the courtyard, her beautiful watery eyes began to scan her surroundings, as if she was searching for someone.

But when she saw that there was only Grandmaster Kuraki, a puzzled expression appeared on her face, she muttered to herself, "Where's that annoying guy?"

When he saw Xuan Ling and the other two arrive, Grandmaster Cang Mu forced a smile and said: "I didn't expect brother Xuan Ling to wake up so early. The sun has just risen!"

...

Since today is the day of the Arcana Ceremony, I'm not in the mood to stay in bed any longer.

However, this year's Arcana Ceremony was truly different from previous years. It had attracted many arcanists from other cities!

It is said that the two super cities closest to our Broken Rock City, An Ding City and Ye Yang City, have also sent their respective geniuses to participate! "

. "Xuanling suddenly came to Grandmaster Kuraki's side and said mysteriously.

Hearing this, Grandmaster Kuraki's expression changed. He said solemnly, "I didn't expect the two super cities to send their young generation of Arcana Masters. It seems that the Arcana Ceremony is really very attractive!

I wonder how strong the geniuses sent by the two super cities are? "

"Sigh!

The Arcanists dispatched by An Ding City and Ye Yang City this time are truly extraordinary. They're the number one figures of the younger generation in their cities, and their strengths are extremely formidable. It's said that their strengths have all reached the level of a rank three Arcanist. As for exactly what rank they've reached, it's unknown. "

Speaking of this, Xuanling suddenly glanced at Ouyang Yatao and sighed, "If it was the Arcana Ceremony of the past, with Yatao's Complete Grade Two strength, it wouldn't be a problem for him to enter the top three. But this time, I'm afraid it's almost impossible."

The corner of Master Kuraki's mouth also revealed a trace of a bitter smile. The person with the greatest Mental Energy talent in Broken Rock City was probably Master Kuya's disciple, Xue Nai. His Mental Energy was already at the level of Lower Grade Three. This time, the two super cities, An City and Yeyang City, had sent out young experts whose strength was not weaker than Xue Nai. It was likely that the competition in this Arcane Arts Ceremony would become very intense. Ouyang Yatao, who was only at the level of Complete Grade Two, was indeed not enough.

Beside him, Ouyang Yatao clenched his teeth when he heard this. A trace of sadness flashed across his eyes. He also admitted that with his current strength, it was indeed very difficult for him to obtain the top three in this Arcana Grand Ceremony. Perhaps, even the top five would be somewhat difficult!

"Kuraki, where's your disciple, Zhuowen?

Call him. Let's go to the Arcana Guild together. The Arcana Ceremony will officially begin when the sun is high in the sky.

Your disciple is quite talented, but he's still young. The competition for the Arcana Ceremony this time is so intense. I'm afraid it'll be difficult for him to achieve a good result. But it's good to be able to accumulate some experience and broaden his horizons. "Xuanling suddenly changed the topic.

Hearing this, Kuraki smiled bitterly and said, "My disciple still has some matters to attend to. I'm afraid he won't be able to make it back in time. Let's go first. He'll go directly to the Arcana Guild later."

"Oh?

Is there anything more important than the Arcana Ceremony? "Xuanling was surprised when she heard this.

"That guy can't be afraid of the Arcana Ceremony, which is full of geniuses, so he's looking for an excuse!" Ouyang Xishui immediately mocked.

Women were the most vengeful. Last time, Zhuowen embarrassed her. She had always disliked Zhuowen. Now that Zhuowen didn't appear, she naturally didn't spare any effort to mock him.

"Xishui, don't talk too much!"

Seeing that Grandmaster Kuraki's expression was rather ugly, Xuanling immediately scolded, making Ouyang Xishui obediently shut up. Then, Xuanling smiled and continued, "You don't have to lower yourself to the same level as this girl. Since little brother Zhuowen has matters to attend to, let's go to the Arcana Guild first!"

Grandmaster Kuraki was expressionless. He nodded slightly and walked out of the courtyard first.

On the other hand, Ouyang Xishui shrunk her neck. She also knew that she had spoken too rashly. Under Xuanling's glare, she could only stick out her tongue.

Once Kuraki, Xuanling, and the other three left the courtyard, they headed straight for the Arcana Guild. However, along the way, the four of them saw Arcana Masters wearing long robes of various colors everywhere. The number of Arcana Masters was like a hornet's nest, causing the four of them to click their tongues. The four of them finally realized how great the attraction of the Arcana Ceremony was.

On the south side of the Arcana Guild, there was an extremely vast square. The square stretched horizontally and vertically for dozens of feet. The area was so large that it could accommodate tens of thousands of people.

This square was called the Arcana Trials Field. It was specially built by the Arcana Guild to hold every Arcana Ceremony or other grand meetings related to Arcana Masters. The Arcana Trials Field was extremely famous in the Arcana Guild.

The Arcane Test Field was oval in shape, and at the edge of the oval was a huge wall stacked with bluestone slabs. The height of the wall was at least ten meters, and on top of the wall were rows of seats. Obviously, these seats were used for spectating purposes.

At this moment, the Arcana Trials Field was extremely lively. Many Arcana Masters had already entered and sat down on the seats in the Arcana Trials Field, silently waiting for the Arcana Ceremony to begin.

"Kuraki, Xuanling!

Come over! "

When Kuraki and Xuanling arrived outside the Arcana Trials Field, they were stopped by a voice filled with vicissitudes of life. The two of them could not help but turn around and immediately saw Master Ku Ya in a gray robe slowly walking over with Xue Nai. His wrinkled face was filled with a warm smile.

"Greetings, Mr. President." When Kuraki and Xuanling saw that it was Master Ku Ya, they quickly cupped their hands and bowed respectfully.

"No need to be so courteous!

This time, you've also brought your disciples to participate in the Arcana Ceremony, right? Most of the Arcana Masters participating in this Arcana Ceremony are not from Broken Rock City. As Arcana Masters of Broken Rock City, you have to work hard. You can't tarnish the reputation of our Broken Rock City's Arcana Guild! "

Ku Ya smiled and shifted his gaze to the siblings, Ouyang Yatao and Ouyang Xishui, who were behind Xuanling.

However, when he saw that Master Kuraki was alone, Master Ku Ya was suddenly stunned. He then asked, "Kuraki, where's your disciple, Zhuowen?

Why don't I see him by your side today? "

Kuraki smiled embarrassedly and said, "Zhuowen has urgent matters to attend to, so he won't be here for a while. However, he should be here before the Arcana Ceremony."

"What urgent matters could be more important than the Arcana Ceremony?

Your disciple's talent and strength are not bad. I'm afraid that he will perform well in this Arcana Ceremony. I still think highly of him. "Master Ku Ya gave Kuraki a meaningful glance and said with a smile.

"Then, thank you for your praise, Master Ku Ya!" Kuraki's smile was rather stiff, but his heart was filled with anxiety.

Meanwhile, Xue Nai's beautiful eyes narrowed. The corners of her cherry red lips revealed a trace of mockery and disdain. She whispered in a voice that only she could hear, "It seems that he's just a guy who likes to talk big. Five days ago, he boasted in front of me, wanting to show me who's the frog at the bottom of the well. Today, he doesn't dare to come. However, I don't have to be too calculative with this cowardly guy. There's no need to."

"Let's go!

Let's all enter the Arcana Training Field. This Arcana Ceremony is different from the past. Many big shots have come. Not only our Broken Rock City's City Lord, Ouyang Yuntu, and the ancestors of the four great families are here, but even the vice presidents of the two Arcana Guilds of An Ding City and Yeyang City have personally come. "

Master Ku Ya smiled and led Xue Nai into the entrance of the Arcana Training Field.
