The Battle of Resurrection
"Since the elders can't interfere in the Battle of the Market, it shouldn't be a problem for someone of the same generation to interfere, right?"
A calm and clear voice rang out in the empty plaza. Then, it reverberated through the entire plaza like a ripple.
Swish!
The moment the voice rang out, everyone's attention was once again focused on the stone platform in the plaza. Now, the several hundred feet tall water dragon on the stone platform had completely disappeared. In its place was a young man with a smile on his face, standing proudly.
The young man's figure seemed to be frozen in place at this moment.
The old man in charge regained his senses and said calmly, "It's alright. However, interfering means admitting defeat. Therefore, the Wang Family's Wang Meng wins this round!"
Zhuo Tian's expression was somewhat complicated as he looked at the figure standing in front of him like a pine tree. His lips twitched a few times, but in the end, he could only sigh and remain silent.
He knew that the Zhuo Family had been completely defeated this time. The price of this defeat was the Zhuo Family's remaining rights to the market. The Zhuo Family would also fall into a state of financial distress because of this.
Seeing the water dragon that he had condensed being crushed so easily by Zhuowen, Wang Meng's pupils couldn't help but shrink. Then, he grinned and a cold voice slowly rang out.
"It seems that I've underestimated you. To be able to block the ninth wave of the Nine Overlapping Wave Palm so easily, your strength is already comparable to mine!
However, even if that's the case, the Zhuo Family has already lost in the end … "
After he finished speaking, Wang Meng glanced at the old man in charge and said, "Sir, can you announce the final result of this Battle of the Market?"
At this moment, the Zhuo Family platform was deathly silent. Everyone's faces were filled with disappointment and unwillingness. They didn't expect that the Zhuo Family would still lose after putting in so much effort for this Battle of the Market. Furthermore, the Zhuo Family's final rights to the market were also lost. This was a fact that no one in the Zhuo Family could accept.
The old man glanced at Wang Meng indifferently, then nodded and announced, "The Battle of the Market has come to an end. I'm sure everyone is well aware of the result. Therefore, the final winner is …"
"Wait!" Just as the old man was about to announce the results, a rather calm voice slowly sounded.
The old man frowned slightly. The feeling of being interrupted made him a little unhappy. He looked at the young man not far away and said, "Do you have any objections?"
"Our Zhuo Family hasn't lost yet?" Zhuowen suddenly took a step forward, and a ferocious aura surged out from his body.
"Zhuowen, are you blind or deaf? The result is already very clear. Don't tell me you still want to be unreasonable?" Wang Meng said sinisterly.
Ignoring the displeasure on Wang Meng's face, Zhuowen raised his head slightly. Facing the platform of the Wang Family, his indifferent voice slowly resounded throughout the entire plaza.
"Tell the other four to get down!"
Once these words were spoken, the originally noisy square immediately quietened down. Everyone's gaze uniformly paused on the skinny figure with a calm expression on the square.
The smile on Wang Meng's face slowly froze. He frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
"I said tell the other four younger generation members of your Wang Family to … get down!"
Zhuowen's gaze was as calm as ever. However, within this calmness, there was a hint of coldness.
Hua!
The silence in the square only lasted for a moment. Soon after, a deafening uproar swept over like an erupting volcano. Countless whispers also erupted at this moment.
"The Battle of Resurrection!
He wants to challenge the Battle of Resurrection. "
A voice that was filled with shock suddenly rang out. Following which, the uproar in the plaza suddenly expanded. Hundreds and thousands of figures sitting outside the plaza suddenly stood up, a fanatical look appearing in their eyes.
"The Battle of Resurrection. After so many years, there is actually someone who wants to challenge the Battle of Resurrection again."
"This little fellow has guts. He actually has the guts to challenge the Battle of Resurrection."
"This time, even if this little fellow loses, his name will spread throughout the entire Rattan Armor City."
When Wang Meng heard the uproar that filled the entire place, his eyes slowly darkened. He looked at Wang Yuanxing, who was standing nearby. When he saw Wang Yuanxing nod his head in acknowledgement, a ferocious arc appeared on the corners of his mouth.
"Since you insist on seeking death, I, Wang Meng, will naturally fulfill your wish!
Wang Hui, Wang Bo, Wang Zheng, Wang Yi, the four of you come down. "Wang Meng laughed sinisterly as he shouted towards the Wang Family platform.
Following which, four figures appeared behind Wang Meng like shadows. They were the other four younger generation members of the Wang Family who were participating in the City Square Battle.
At this moment, the originally deathly silent atmosphere on the Zhuo Family platform immediately faded away. Everyone's eyes were filled with disbelief as they looked at the skinny figure in the plaza.
"Father, Zhuowen is too reckless. He actually challenged the Battle of Resurrection without discussing it with us. You should know that once one challenges the Battle of Resurrection, one's life and death will be determined by fate. If one is not careful, it is very likely that one's life will be lost.
Zhuowen is now the hope of our Zhuo Family. If he dies because of this … "
Zhuo Xiangding, who had been standing beside Zhuo Xiangding, was the first to speak. His expression was extremely emotional. However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhuo Xiangding's aged voice.
"Eldest Brother, don't you think that Zhuowen's back looks a lot like Third Brother from 60 years ago?
When Third Brother proposed the Battle of Resurrection, you seemed to have said the same thing. But what was the result in the end? "
The old man's voice became a little hoarse and gentle at this time. However, if one listened carefully, one could still hear a trace of tremor in the old man's voice. He knew better than anyone else how important Zhuowen was to the Zhuo Family.
However, the moment that figure proposed the Battle of Resurrection, the old man's eyes suddenly became blurry. It was as if the tall figure in the plaza at this time had overlapped with the figure from 60 years ago. The scene was so similar to what was happening now.
"Eldest Brother, he is Third Brother's son!"
After Zhuo Xiangding finally said this rather complicated sentence, he did not speak anymore. He just stared at the plaza without blinking.
Zhuo Beitian was completely silent. Zhuo Dingtian, who was behind him, was holding the seriously injured Zhuo Tian. He stared at the tall figure in the plaza with a complicated look in his eyes.
On the platform of the City Lord's Mansion, Gu Yue looked at the plaza with a dignified expression and said with a flickering tone, "This guy actually dares to challenge the Battle of Resurrection. He is too impulsive!"
When everyone's eyes were focused on the stone platform, two figures stood quietly at the top of a magnificent building far away from the plaza. Their eyes were also focused on the God Stone Plaza.
The two figures were a middle-aged man and a young man of about 75 years old. The middle-aged man was dressed in a purple robe. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes. He had a dignified appearance and a faint majesty exuded from his body. It was obvious that he had been in a high position for a long time.
The young man was handsome and had a good temperament. However, there was always a trace of contempt and arrogance between his eyebrows. Traces of a cold aura slowly spread out from his eyes, letting people know that this person was not to be trifled with.
"Gu Xin, what do you think of the little guy from the Zhuo Family?
This is the second time someone has dared to challenge the Battle of Resurrection since the start of the Market Square Battle. "The man in purple robe's voice was loud and clear with a trace of magnetism, making people feel relaxed and happy.
"The Battle of Resurrection?
Other than Wang Meng, the rest of the Wang Family are trash. Even if it is Wang Meng, I can make him lose his ability to fight in three rounds and even take his life. In my opinion, the Battle of Resurrection is a joke. "
"The younger generation of Rattan Armor City is too weak. They are not a challenge to me at all. My eyes are not on Rattan Armor City, but on Muqin County and even the entire Qing Xuan Empire."
The young man named Gu Xin had his hands behind his back. His tone was full of arrogance.
"The strength of these little fellows is indeed nothing in your eyes. However, that little fellow called Zhuo Wen is not so simple. Since this child is able to challenge the resurrection battle, he should have some trump cards. Most importantly, this child is Zhuo Xiaotian's son." The purple-clothed man's voice was as calm as an ancient well.
"Zhuo Xiaotian?
The true number one of the younger generation of Rattan Armor City? The one who won the recognition of the Qing Emperor and was made a Marquis ten years ago? "
The young man's arrogance immediately disappeared. His tone was slightly shaken as he spoke.
"That's right!
Zhuo Xiaotian can be considered the most talented cultivator I have ever seen. His talent is not inferior to the disciples of the Qing Xuan Empire's Five Great Families.
Unfortunately, ten years ago, when he was just made a Marquis, news spread that he had disappeared.
This happened too suddenly. "
"It happened too suddenly. Even the Zhuo Family didn't know that Zhuo Xiaotian had already been made a Marquis and became a governor of a border.
If I didn't have some connections in the Imperial Capital, I wouldn't have known that Zhuo Xiaotian had become a Marquis. At that time, it really shocked me. Unfortunately … "The man in purple robe had a trace of regret on his face.
"The Zhuo Family didn't know that Zhuo Xiaotian had been made a Marquis?
Then why didn't father tell them about the Zhuo Family? "The young man asked with some confusion.
"The Zhuo Family is too weak. It's not a good thing to tell them this news.
Moreover, when Zhuo Xiaotian was made a Marquis, he used a fake name. Since he used a fake name, it means that there is something fishy going on. Since Zhuo Xiaotian himself didn't want to tell the family, why should I do something unnecessary?
Alright, let's not talk about the past. Next, let's see how this little guy Zhuowen performs. "
After the man in purple robe finished speaking, he didn't say anything else. Instead, he put his hands behind his back and focused his gaze on the God Stone Plaza not far away.
The young man glanced at the mysterious man in purple robe. Although he had some doubts in his heart, he was smart enough not to ask. Instead, he focused his gaze on the tall figure in the God Stone Plaza.
