Chapter 868  Under a Heavy Reward

In the center of Panlong City, there is a square arena.

This is not a temporary setting for selecting sages. There is already such a arena in Panlong City, called Panlong Arena!

In just a moment, Xiao Mian and his party arrived at the Panlong Arena.

But at this time, the party was divided into two groups: Yin Jiansheng, Jing Chu and Kong Yuanren were together, and Xiao Mian was alone.

On the one hand, Yin Jiansheng and the other two were traveling together so that they could take care of each other.

On the other hand, the fake identities of the three people were all the same Chu County monks.

Although Panlong City was recruiting sages, after the arena, they would definitely use some means to identify the origins and identities of these sages.

At that time, when they saw that the three were all Chu County monks and entered Panlong City on the same day, who would not know that the three must be the same group?

Only Xiao Mian, with a different identity from the other three, could act alone.

With the cultivation of the four, they are considered top-notch among the Jindan cultivators, especially Yin Jiansheng, a top-level Jindan sword cultivator. As soon as he stated his cultivation level, the cultivator in charge of recording said that he could be exempted from the duel and directly admitted as an exception.

Although Jing Chu and Kong Yuanren did not have this treatment, they also easily defeated their opponents and passed the assessment successfully.

The three of them naturally did not worry about whether Xiao Mian could pass. In order to conceal their tracks, they followed the monks who led them and entered the residence arranged by Panlong City.

As for Xiao Mian, he had naturally foreseen that Yin Jiansheng and the other two would pass the test smoothly.

In order to be cautious, Xiao Mian and Yin Jiansheng did not register at the same time. Therefore, when the three of them passed the duel, Xiao Mian had not started yet.

Seeing the three quietly leave, Xiao Mian did not care too much.

Anyway, the four of them were wearing the Five Elements Ring, so they were not afraid of losing contact.

Just thinking about this, Xiao Mian's expression suddenly changed slightly, and his eyes were fixed on the ring in front of him.

The entire Panlong Arena was too big, about a mile square.

The huge Panlong Arena was cut into nine arenas of the same size, and therefore, nine fights were going on at the same time on the nine arenas.

In the arena where Xiao Mian was waiting, a fight between dragons and tigers was going on.

Although it was called a fight between dragons and tigers, in fact, both sides of the fight were only Jindan beginners. If we really talk about strength, they are naturally not in Xiao Mian's eyes.

But it was precisely because the two sides were evenly matched that the fight seemed more tragic.

However, what really concerned Xiao Mian was one of the people in the fight, who was Mu Wangwang, who had met him before when he sold the piece to him.

His eyes narrowed, and Xiao Mian was suspicious.

This kid!

If he was really a local snake in Panlong City, how could he easily get involved in the dispute between Panlong City and Mulan Mountain?

Xiao Mian just thought so, and Mu Wangwang's opponent was finally defeated by Mu Wangwang by a trick, or was not ruthless enough.

Although Mu Wangwang was seriously injured, he managed to pass the duel by luck.

Xiao Mian kept watching Mu Wangwang until he disappeared.

After that, two more duels were held on the duel stage.

In the third duel, it was finally Xiao Mian's turn to go on stage.

In the previous duels that Xiao Mian had paid attention to, most of the people on stage were Jindan beginners and intermediates, and occasionally there were Jindan high-level cultivators, who were already rare masters.

Xiao Mian always thought that he could easily win, but when he saw his opponent, he laughed dumbly.

With Xiao Mian's extraordinary spiritual perception and Jindan high-level cultivation, if the opponent was also Jindan high-level, he would definitely feel it.

The problem is that looking at the person opposite, Xiao Mian can't figure out the depth of the other party.

In this way, he is really lucky!

No!

Shouldn't Jindan top-level cultivators be exempted from the test like Yin Jiansheng?

Could this kid opposite come for him?

I'm a newcomer, could it be that there are old friends of mine in Panlong City?

Forget it! Forget it!

Why bother with so much, let's talk about it after the fight!

Seeing the top-level Jindan cultivator on the opposite side of the ring staring at him closely, Xiao Mian tightened his mind and looked at the man without flinching.

At the referee's command, the two fought in one place.

The top-level Jindan cultivator had a pretty good fighting power.

From Xiao Mian's point of view, if Kong Yuanren faced this man, it would still be unknown who would win or lose. Jing Chu's cultivation had improved a lot, so he could defeat this man.

As for Xiao Mian, it was natural. It was not difficult to win, but the difficulty was not to be conspicuous.

After pretending for a while, Xiao Mian relied on the bravery of the Xingci Sword to knock the opponent's flying sword away. While the opponent was stunned because of the damage to the flying sword, Xiao Mian used the body refining technique to knock him out of the fighting arena.

Although it was a pity to expose the background of his fellow practitioner, it would be a bit abrupt for Xiao Mian, a high-level Jindan cultivator, to defeat a top-level Jindan opponent. No matter how he won, it would be unreasonable if he didn't reveal some of his cards.

Sure enough, Xiao Mian passed the test in one battle.

When he left the arena with the guiding monk, Xiao Mian accidentally saw that the top-level Jindan monk he defeated was admonishing a girl.

Xiao Mian had some impression of the girl.

Before that, Xiao Mian felt that the girl's spiritual fluctuations were very different from those of ordinary people. He subconsciously used the spiritual eyes to discover that the other party was a rare mutant thunder spirit root.

Thunder spirit roots are even rarer than wind spirit roots.

Xiao Mian only remembered that Zhong Liyin was a thunder spirit root cultivator at the beginning. He didn't expect that he would see another one in Panlong City.

If Xiao Mian remembered correctly, the girl should be the one behind him - in other words, if the top Jindan cultivator chose to pass the test without taking the test, according to the relevant rules of the competition, Xiao Mian's opponent would be the girl at the initial Jindan stage.

Could it be that this person gave up the qualification of being exempted from the test just to allow the girl to avoid the competition with him?

Now it's good!

The girl certainly avoided the competition with Xiao Mian, but the top Jindan cultivator who was sure to pass the test was defeated by Xiao Mian...

Shaking his head, Xiao Mian didn't care and floated away.

After that, Xiao Mian was taken to a monastery.

After one night, early the next morning, Xiao Mian was taken to the competition arena the day before.

At this time, there were no less than 300 people gathered in the competition arena.

What's more terrifying is that these people are all Jindan cultivators, and there are many top Jindan cultivators like Yin Jiansheng.

This lineup made Xiao Mian unconsciously recall the Dragon and Tiger Pond that day.

As for Yin Jiansheng and others, they were also deeply touched.

If they had not seen the world in Tianxia City before, the three of them might have made mistakes when they saw so many Jindan masters gathered here.

Before Xiao Mian had too much time to sigh, a person suddenly appeared in the void, looking down at everyone.

Spatial magical power - Yuanying Patriarch!

After understanding the identity of that person, everyone naturally did not dare to cross the line.

His expressionless eyes swept over everyone on the stage one by one, and when he passed by the top Jindan cultivators like Yin Jiansheng, he paused slightly, but it was just a pause. Obviously, in the eyes of this Yuanying Patriarch, even the top Jindan cultivators were just like this.

After that, the Yuanying Patriarch just said some high-sounding righteousness.

It is unknown how many people at the scene listened to it.

However, everyone must have heard the last words of the Yuanying Patriarch...

"You are all able to draw your swords to help us and fight Mulan Mountain together with Panlong City. It is really precious. Panlong City will not treat you badly. Hereby agree: Anyone who has the top level of Jindan will be rewarded with a million middle spirits! Those who have the high level of Jindan will be rewarded with 600,000 middle spirits! Those who have the middle level of Jindan will be rewarded with 400,000 middle spirits! Those who have the initial level of Jindan will be rewarded with 200,000 middle spirits! However, in order to prevent some bad apples from taking the spirit stones and running away, this reward will be reserved for the day of success!"

The deep eyes swept the whole audience again. Seeing that no one objected, the Yuanying Patriarch's expression eased a little, and he smiled and nodded.

Then, he disappeared.

The next moment, the entire Panlong Battle Stage was filled with people.

One million middle spirits! 600,000 middle spirits! 400,000 middle spirits! 200,000 middle spirits!

Although it is getting less and less, even a Jindan beginner cultivator can get 200,000 middle-grade spirit stones, which is undoubtedly a great blessing for many cultivators on the scene.

Xiao Mian, on the contrary, became cautious at this time.

The 300 cultivators on the scene, even if they are all Jindan beginner cultivators, need to pay 60 million middle-grade spirit stones in conversion - this is definitely an astronomical figure!

What's more, there are many Jindan middle-grade and Jindan high-grade cultivators on the scene, and there are more than a dozen Jindan top-grade cultivators. This amount of spirit stones is naturally far from enough.

Even for Panlong City, tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of middle-grade spirit stones are definitely not a small amount!

Unless Panlong City has never thought of paying this amount of spirit stones.

For example, after attacking Mulan Mountain, there were only a few cultivators left on the scene...

For a moment, Xiao Mian even wanted to retreat bravely and withdraw.

But on second thought, no matter how arrogant Panlong City is, it is expected that it will not dare to catch all the hundreds of Jindan cultivators present. Not to mention that this will not benefit Panlong City at all, the criticism it will cause is definitely not something Panlong City can bear. If something goes wrong, Mulan Mountain will be safe, but Panlong City will change its owner!

As for the fight between Panlong City and Mulan Mountain, according to Xiao Mian's prior prediction, it should not be too tragic.

After all, the spiritual war is coming.

After all, the catastrophe is coming.

Nanyue State, Xishu State, Qin County, Chu County, and even Dongwu State, Beiwei State and Tiandu City, which Xiao Mian has never been to, must be preparing for the spiritual war that may suddenly break out at any time. How could they start a war for no reason?

What's more, Panlong City and Mulan Mountain have been deadlocked for hundreds of years. They didn't eradicate them early or encircle them later, but they took action at this time. The timing was too strange...

Maybe this is a double act between Panlong City and Mulan Mountain!

It was because of this that Xiao Mian encouraged Yin Jiansheng and others to participate in the Panlong City's attack on Mulan Mountain.

Now it seems that his judgment was too arbitrary.

I just hope that there will be no accidents in the next Mulan Mountain attack...
