As soon as Chu Ran entered the Tianwu Hall, a hand was placed on his shoulder. He knew without looking that it must be Gu Yi.
Chu Ran said without looking back: "Why don't I dare to come?"
Gu Yi turned to Chu Ran and looked at Chu Ran up and down: "Don't you know? Many people have said that you will not come to this martial arts competition!"
Chu Ran shrugged: "What they say has nothing to do with me!"
As he said that, he looked sideways at the small white hands on his shoulders. He was speechless and said, "Lao Gu, can you change the way you greet me?"
After all, she is a girl, more manly than men!
Gu Yiyi curled his lips and hummed: "What? I don't accept it! How about we have a fight to warm you up first?"
Chu Ran smiled and shook his head: "There's no need to warm up. Is it necessary for a mere Xia Zhiyan to warm up? It's like scolding me!"
Hearing this, Gu Yi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Chu Ran, do you know what I admire most about you?"
Chu Ran thought for a while and said: "Tall? Mighty? Handsome?"
"Is it so difficult to have a face?"
Gu Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "What I admire the most is your ability to show off. No matter how your opponent is, forcing you can make you pretend!"
"..."
Chu Ran looked shocked: "She is a girl after all, can she not be so straightforward when speaking?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yi's face immediately became serious and he was about to touch the gun: "If you talk like that again, believe it or not, I will stab you to death!"
"Yes, you win!"
Chu Ran was helpless. This was the first time she saw her. She was obviously a woman, but she still didn't like others talking about her!
"This is a good buddy!"
Gu Yi raised his chin at Chu Ran and asked, "How about it? Are you sure? If it doesn't work, just throw the broken sign to Xia Zhiyan!"
Chu Ran shook his head: "He doesn't deserve it!"
"Hahaha!"
When Gu Yi heard this, he immediately laughed. Sure enough, Chu Ran was still the same Chu Ran, and he was not wrong.
"Let's go, I'll take you into the arena!"
As Gu Yi said that, he took the lead and walked towards the right side of the main hall on the first floor.
Chu Ran followed closely beside him, and the two of them entered the large arena of 100,000 people from the inner passage directly where the martial arts competition was held.
The auditorium of the arena was almost full of people, and the entire arena was enveloped in an atmosphere of chaos.
As soon as he entered the arena, Chu Ran saw the flag of the city lord's palace on the audience stage due east.
The city lord Xia Yunhao sat alone and proudly. In this huge arena, he looked particularly dazzling. People could see his presence at a glance. A vague aura emitted unconsciously, giving people
A feeling that I dare not look directly at.
Xia Yunhao said nothing, only his indifferent eyes scanning the surrounding crowd from time to time.
There were many people bowing beside him, and almost every one of these people was a prominent figure in the ancient city.
Including Su Yuanshan, the head of the Su family, Uncle Wang, the head of the Wang family, Qi Tianhan, the head of the Qi family, etc., although these families are not as powerful as the Chu family and the Su family in Gudao City, they still have considerable influence.
Especially after the Lin family was destroyed, several powerful families all had ambitions to rise to power.
And the only one who can bring them to power is City Lord Xia Yunhao!
"Lord City Lord, your love will definitely get the Tianze Academy's special recruitment token today and enhance the prestige of our ancient road city!"
"A mere Chu Ran dares to compete with Miss Zhiyan. It's really an underestimation of one's abilities!"
"If our Ancient Dao City can produce a peerless genius like Miss Zhiyan, the Ancient Dao City will definitely be even more powerful in the future!"
Words of praise spread from the mouths of several people. Although City Lord Xia Yunhao didn't respond much, his face became even more proud, and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth, which was obviously very useful.
Not only in the city lord's palace, but also in the entire audience, there are almost all topics about Xia Zhiyan. As for Chu Ran, there are also some, but there are very few.
After all, it is almost impossible for those in the Casting Star Realm to win against the Hundred Refining Realm!
Many people even couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "Giving a girl should be like a beautiful girl in summer!"
For a time, Xia Zhiyan's name spread throughout the arena.
"How's it going? Are you stressed?"
Beside Chu Ran, Gu Yi smiled and looked at Chu Ran carefully up and down, as if to find the panic hidden under Chu Ran's plain face.
But obviously, she failed.
Not only did she not see panic in Chu Ran, but all she saw was confidence!
This was the kind of confidence that could be transmitted to others. Even Gu Yi was inspired by Chu Ran's confidence to have a mysterious trust in him.
It's like, as long as you look at Chu Ran, you see victory, and as long as Chu Ran takes action, there is no possibility of losing!
This shocked Gu Da, it was simply evil.
Although she knew that there must be something in Chu Ran that definitely surpassed the seventh-level cultivation of the Casting Star Realm in his appearance, she still did not believe that Chu Ran could defeat Xia Zhiyan, a new powerful person in the Hundred Refining Realm.
Can win.
Because the gap is so huge that there is no hope at all.
But it’s so evil!
Just looking at Chu Ran, I feel like this guy can definitely win!
"No, you are poisonous, I have to stay away from you!"
After watching for a while, Gu Yi shook his head vigorously, then left Chu Ran where he was and left directly.
Chu Ran was speechless, where is the good buddy we promised?
Just run away by yourself?
"Um?"
At this moment, Chu Ran suddenly felt a cool breeze on his back, as if being stared at by a poisonous snake, causing his eyes to instantly look to the audience stand at the rear right.
There was a pair of eyes staring at him.
He was a young man of about twenty years old, but Chu Ran didn't recognize him.
This made Chu Ran a little surprised.
It seems that you have never offended such a person, right?
He seemed to notice Chu Ran and looked over. The young man turned around and disappeared into the audience.
"Everyone!"
Just when Chu Ran was confused, a voice resounded throughout the entire arena of 100,000 people. The voice was very empty, as if it was falling directly from the sky, causing everyone's eyes to look above their heads.
At the top of the hall, a figure slowly appeared. This figure, holding a thousand-faced fan, stood in the air. It was clearly the master of Tianwu Hall, Gu Han.
"Master of the Tianwu Hall of the Ancient Dao City, I am honored that the Tianze Academy has chosen the Tianwu Hall for this specially recruited student token challenge. I hope that all the proud disciples of the Ancient Dao City who participate in the challenge can show their true talents.
Strength, in this challenge, whoever becomes the final holder of the specially recruited student token will be the pride of our Ancient Dao City. I hope that in the future, the name of our Ancient Dao City can be promoted and the prestige of our Ancient Dao City can be shaken!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire martial arts arena erupted in cheers.
There were many young people who wanted to participate in the challenge, and the girl couldn't help but clenched her fists, with a flash of hard work in her eyes.
Even Chu Ran's heart moved slightly.
Promote the name of the ancient Daocheng and shock the power of the ancient Daocheng!
What inspiring words.
"Gu Han!"
Only the city lord Xia Yunhao, who was sitting high in the east direction, snorted coldly.
He is the Lord of the Ancient Dao City, and the Tianwu Palace is just a place to hold events. This sentence should have been said by him, but it was said by Gu Han first. It is unreasonable.
"Father, there is no need to argue with him. Once I get the special recruitment token, what will happen to me as the master of the first branch hall!"
Xia Zhiyan's voice made Xia Yunhao's expression calm down.
When Xia Zhiyan gets the token, Xia Yunhao's status will definitely be promoted. At this time, he has already ignored this small city lord in Ancient Dao City, and Ancient Dao City cannot accommodate his ambitions!
