Chapter 358

Gu Yue Tian's Anxiety

In the open space around the tower, the city lords of the four plazas and the five powerful beings on the central platform were all quietly watching the light screen above the void. They knew that if someone had already seized the control center of Ascension Island, it would definitely be displayed on the light screen.

However, they all knew that the results of the first floor of the Origin Qi Tower wouldn't come out so quickly. If it was fast, it might take a few days. If it was slow, it might take a few months. Therefore, although the City Lords in the plaza were looking forward to the results, they weren't that anxious. Instead, they gathered in small groups and chatted.

Among the four plazas, the Mundane Plazas were the most lively. This was because all the City Lords of low-grade cities were gathered here. With the huge population of low-grade cities, the number of City Lords of low-grade cities who came to the county capital far exceeded that of high-grade cities and super cities.

In an inconspicuous corner of the Mortal Plaza, Gu Yue Tian's heart was heavy. He originally thought that after Zhuowen had advanced to the half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm, there was a very high chance that he would be able to pass the first floor of the Origin Qi Tower and squeeze into the top 6555. However, he didn't expect that Rattan Armor City's luck would be so bad.

The Sandstone Island where Rattan Armor City was located had a total of four high level cities. It could be said that they were quite unlucky. One had to know that some islands only had a single team from a high level city. Some lucky islands didn't even have a single team from a high level city!

Just as Gu Yue Tian was feeling down, two figures came together and arrived in front of Gu Yue Tian. One of the two figures had white hair and a bald head. He had a kind smile on his face and his aura was almost the same as Gu Yue Tian's. He was also a Great Circle Earth King Realm cultivator.

The other person was about the same age as Gu Yue Tian, around thirty years old. His face was resolute and his expression was cold. However, this person's aura caused Gu Yue Tian to be rather fearful. He was actually a Half Step Heavenly King Realm cultivator, just half a step away from advancing to the Heavenly King Realm.

This kind of strength was quite rare in a low-level city. At the very least, among the countless low-level cities, this person's strength was definitely at the upper level.

"Brother, I'm sorry for disturbing you!

There aren't any empty seats around us. Can we take a seat here? "The seemingly amiable bald old man smiled and asked Gu Yue Tian politely.

Looking around the crowded square, Gu Yue Tian found that there were indeed very few seats around. Only his square was in a remote corner, so there were fewer people and it was more spacious than other places.

Gently nodding his head, Gu Yue Tian waved his right hand, retrieving two rather comfortable chairs from his Qiankun bag and placing them beside him. Barely revealing a sliver of a smile, he said, "If the two of you don't mind, please sit beside this Gu!"

"This brother is too courteous!

This old man is Blue Rock City's City Lord, Liu Nanfeng. This is this old man's good friend, Fiery Flame City's City Lord, Qin Huo.

May I know your name and city? "

Seeing that Gu Yuetian was so courteous, the gazes of the two also became somewhat gentle. With a smile on his face, the bald old man sat on the armchair beside Gu Yuetian and smilingly asked.

"Brother Liu, there's no need to be so courteous!

This one is Gu Yue Tian, the City Lord of Rattan Armor City. "Gu Yue Tian cupped his hands politely and said with a smile.

"Rattan Armor City?"

Liu Nanfeng and Qin Huo's expressions changed slightly when they heard this. Qin Huo stared at Gu Yue Tian with a cold expression and said, "Brother Gu, is the Rattan Armor City you speak of the one with the half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm geniuses?"

Liu Nanfeng and Qin Huo's hearts exploded when they heard the words "Rattan Armor City". When the administrator opened the Thousand Knowledge Scroll, it showed that the strongest cultivator in Rattan Armor City was a half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator. Moreover, that half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator wasn't the City Lord. Clearly, he could only be a participant in the Origin Qi Tower battle.

The foundation of a low-level city was extremely pitiful. Being able to cultivate a Heavenly King Realm genius was already a cause for celebration. However, a half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator was something they didn't even dare to think about. Even a high-level city had to pay a great price to cultivate a half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator, let alone a low-level city.

However, this seemingly unknown Rattan Armor City had done it. Although they had suspected that there was a problem with the Thousand Knowledge Scroll, they knew that the information within the scroll had been drafted by many experts of the House of Marquis Qin. The probability of a mistake being made was extremely small.

Therefore, Rattan Armor City did indeed have a half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator. This was why Liu Nanfeng and Qin Huo were so sensitive to the three words "Rattan Armor City". When Gu Yue Tian said that he was the City Lord of Rattan Armor City, the two of them could no longer maintain their calm.

"It seems that your Rattan Armor City's foundation is very terrifying!

To be able to cultivate a half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator, your Rattan Armor City's strength must be at the top of all the low-level cities. Your foundation is probably no weaker than a mid-level city! "

The bald old man, Liu Nanfeng, suddenly became somewhat enthusiastic. He knew that a city that could cultivate a half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator, even if it was only a low-level city, was definitely not simple.

Even Qin Huo, who was standing beside Liu Nanfeng, had a much more relaxed expression on his face. That was a half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm expert! An expert like that was enough to sweep through any low-level city, so Qin Huo's attitude had become much more respectful.

Although Gu Yue Tian was weaker than him, Rattan Armor City had the support of a half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator. He didn't dare to offend them in the slightest.

Gu Yue Tian could sense the change in the attitudes of the two people in front of him. He smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, Zhuowen wasn't cultivated by our Rattan Armor City. The main reason why he has today's achievements is because he rose up step by step!

If our Rattan Armor City had the foundation to cultivate a half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator, then I, as the city lord, wouldn't be at this level of cultivation. "

Liu Nanfeng and Qin Huo couldn't help but be startled when they heard this. However, the surprise on their faces became even more intense. If Gu Yue Tian was telling the truth, then this young man called Zhuowen was too terrifying!

To be able to break through to the half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm on his own, such a genius would probably be extremely dazzling even in the provincial capital. If this kind of person wasn't born in a low-level city and was born in a super city, then wouldn't he have reached the Ultimate Emperor Realm long ago?

The two glanced at each other. Although they'd never met Zhuowen before, a trace of admiration rose in their hearts for Zhuowen.

"Brother Gu's city has produced such a peerless genius. I'm afraid there's hope for you to enter the top 6555 in this competition!

Let us congratulate Brother Gu first. "

After hearing Gu Yue Tian's explanation, Liu Nanfeng and Qin Huo were extremely envious of Gu Yue Tian. They secretly sighed in their hearts that the cities under their jurisdiction didn't have such a rare genius!

Gu Yue Tian shook his head slightly and said bitterly, "I'm afraid our Rattan Armor City is doomed this time!

The two of you can take a look at the situation of our Rattan Armor City's team on the Sandstone Island. You'll know that even with Zhuowen's presence, it'll still be very difficult for us to enter the top 6555! "

"Oh?"

The two of them were slightly taken aback. Then, they tilted their heads to look at the information on the Sandstone Island on the light screen. After a while, the two of them frowned and looked at Gu Yuetian with pity.

"I really didn't expect the Sandstone Island to be assigned to teams from four high rank cities at the same time. I'm afraid the competition on the Sandstone Island is much more intense than on the other islands!

Moreover, apart from Azure Dragon City, the remaining three cities, Jiayu City, Jiayu City, and Thunder Universe City, all have half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivators. Jiayu City, in particular, has more than one half-step Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator! "

The bald old man, Liu Nanfeng, also sighed. Originally, with Rattan Armor City's overall strength, they had a very high chance of getting into the top 6,555. However, their luck was really bad. There were actually so many strong opponents on the sandstone island that they had been assigned.

One had to know that the Sandstone Island that Liu Nanfeng and Qin Huo were assigned to only had one team from a high rank city. If the other teams on the Sandstone Island joined forces, they might be able to defeat the team from a high rank city. However, with four teams from high rank cities appearing at the same time, the fate of the other teams was naturally sealed. They were bound to fail.

Although he had already prepared himself for failure, Gu Yue Tian was still somewhat unwilling. He hoped that a miracle would happen. He hoped that Zhuowen, who had never been defeated before, would lead Rattan Armor City into the top 6555.

"Zhuowen!

I can only believe in you now … "Looking at the light screen in the sky, Gu Yue Tian muttered to himself.

Compared to the bustling Mortal Stage Plaza, the Heaven Stage Plaza was extremely cold and cheerless. There were only a few dozen figures scattered about in the huge plaza.

After all, the Heaven Stage Plaza was the seat for the city lords of the various super cities. The number of super cities in Muqin County did not exceed three digits. Therefore, the number of super city lords in the plaza was naturally extremely sparse.

At this moment, in the plaza, Ouyang Yuntu and Qiu Chou were chatting cheerfully. The atmosphere between the two was quite relaxed.

"This time, our Broken Rock City's luck is pretty good. There are no super cities on the islands that we were assigned to. The first level is quite easy for us!" Ouyang Yuntu looked at the light screen and smiled slightly.

"The first level only filters out the top 6555 forces. Our Muqin County has very few super cities, not exceeding three digits!

With Marquis Lu's methods, he won't let the super cities collide with each other so early. According to the previous rules, the real contact between the super cities should occur on the third level. The first two levels should not be difficult for the super cities at all. "Qiu Chou smiled faintly.

Ouyang Yuntu nodded slightly, then looked at another island. He frowned and said, "However, I'm afraid that Rattan Armor City will have a difficult time competing for the Soaring Island this time. Isn't the probability of encountering four teams from high rank cities a little too unbelievable?"

"Sigh!

That brat Zhuowen has probably already attracted Marquis Lu's attention!

A half-step ultimate emperor realm cultivator was able to withstand a round of attacks from an ultimate emperor realm cultivator. With the marquis's personality, it's quite impossible for him not to test the kid's strength! "Qiu Chou sighed softly.
