Chapter 76 Wuhun City

After some minor incidents in the previous few days, the team's progress speeded up, and on the fifth day after that day, the Tiandou Empire's team arrived at Wuhun City.

Compared to the historic Tiandou City, this newly built Wuhun City is much smaller, but the magnificent scale and momentum of the building still give everyone a great shock.

Yun Yi was certain that the scale of Wuhun City was built according to the specifications of a country's capital city. It was extremely grand and majestic. One could tell the ambition of the builders when one saw the city. Even a fool could see the ambition of Wuhun Palace to unify the continent.

The location of Wuhun City is also very particular. It is located in the center of the continent. Wuhun Palace does not seem to mind that their city is close to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Qian Renxue also ordered the Royal Knights to garrison outside the city, while she herself led sixteen teams into the city under the leadership of the cardinal.

Apart from the special platinum bishops in the Spirit Temples in the capitals of the two empires, the cardinal is the highest rank under the Pope in Spirit City.

Under the guidance of a cardinal, Yun Yi was arranged to stay in a hotel on the west side of Wuhun City. After arriving at his own room, Yun Yi and Zhu Zhuqing packed up simply and called Shui Bing'er to join them. The three of them discussed going out for a walk together. Yun Yi was quite interested in this. The novelty of coming to Wuhun City made him feel pretty good.

According to the news from Wuhun Palace, the competition will officially start in three days. After a tiring journey, these three days of rest are enough for each academy to make adjustments.

The students participating in the competition from the Xingluo Empire were arranged to rest on the other side of the Wuhun City. Invisibly, the Wuhun Hall had divided the participating teams from the two empires into two camps.

Yun Yi held the hands of the two and walked on the streets of Wuhun City. Everything around them seemed so orderly and harmonious, which made Yun Yi feel like he was back to his previous life shopping.

Walking on the street, Yun Yi discovered that except for a few people with strong personalities, most of the soul masters from the Spirit Hall were dressed very similarly. They looked so equal and harmonious. Perhaps this is why only soul masters are allowed to enter the Spirit City. In a sense, this management method greatly conceals the class gap in a small range.

Although Yun Yi had the impression that Bibi Dong was a crazy love-brained person, he also had to admire Bibi Dong's management ability. Although the Spirit Hall was able to expand to its current size with the support of a deep foundation, Bibi Dong definitely made an indelible contribution.

On the contrary, in the cities of Tiandou, anyone with a little observation ability can clearly tell people's status and class from their clothes.

In the capital city like Tiandou City, all kinds of arrogant nobles can be seen everywhere, various tragedies happen from time to time, and the Tiandou Auction House even openly trades in human beings.

It’s not that Yun Yi wants to lick the Spirit Hall. Although classes cannot be eliminated, the rules of Spirit City have been directly reduced. The contacts between different classes will not occur like in Tiandou City where nobles bully civilians.

Of course, it's not just the city's management model. In Yun Yi's eyes, the Spirit Hall's development model is simply a dimensionality reduction attack. When the two empires were still relying on the sect's soul masters to take the elite route, the Spirit Hall had already understood what the mass line was.

When Yun Yi was walking slowly and carefully feeling the special atmosphere in Wuhun City, Yun Yi clearly felt that Zhu Zhuqing's hand suddenly trembled slightly. Yun Yi turned his head and looked at Zhu Zhuqing, who stopped and looked puzzled.

"Zhuqing?" Yun Yi looked at Zhu Zhuqing, who was looking ahead with a serious expression and some confusion, and called softly.

Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing didn't answer, Yun Yi followed Zhu Zhuqing's gaze and looked in another direction, only to see a group of young men and women in luxurious clothes coming towards them. It was obvious that they were not from the Spirit Hall, and the leading man had golden hair.

Yun Yi smiled at Zhu Zhuqing and chuckled, "Don't worry, don't worry. If you want to cause trouble, you have to wait until the game is over. Let's go and say hello to my sister-in-law."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing glared at Yun Yi in anger, with a look of worry on her face, but she still listened to Yun Yi and slowly walked towards the Xingluo people.

"Zhuqing, long time no see. Why didn't I see that kid Dai Mubai?" Zhu Zhuyun's voice sounded quite charmingly, and she looked at Yun Yi holding Zhu Zhuqing's hand with a look of surprise.

Davis, who was in the lead, looked at Yun Yi and Zhu Zhuqing with a gleam in his eyes.

Yun Yi looked at Davis and Zhu Zhuyun and said calmly, "Listen, Zhu Qing has nothing to do with the Xing Luo Empire from now on."

"Who are you?" Davis looked at Yun Yi with his eyes slightly narrowed. No one of his age had ever dared to speak to him like that.

"It doesn't matter who I am. Just remember what I said." Yun Yi said lightly.

Davis' eyes flashed coldly when he heard this, and he looked at Yun Yi seriously and said, "Boy, do you know what you are talking about?"

"The eldest prince of Xingluo? What do you think of you?" Yun Yi looked at Davis and said lightly.

"You!" Davis was about to attack Yun Yi but was stopped by Zhu Zhuyun. "This is Wuhun City, be careful, maybe that guy did it on purpose."

Davis came to his senses after hearing this and suppressed the anger in his heart.

"You are so patient." Yun Yi smiled, and in just a moment Yun Yi's eyes examined all the key parts of Zhu Zhuyun's body.

"Sister-in-law, why don't you come with me? What's so good about being the Queen of Xingluo?" Yun Yi chuckled.

Feeling Yun Yi's gaze so presumptuous and bold, Zhu Zhuyun couldn't help but show annoyance on her face. The frivolous words instantly made Davis beside her furious and his face gloomy.

"Haha, you coward." Yun Yi sneered, and slowly left with Zhu Zhuqing and Shui Bing'er.

Davis looked at Yun Yi's back with gloomy eyes, his clenched hands unable to loosen, and suppressed the anger in his heart and said to the team member beside him, "Go check which team Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai and this guy are in, I want him dead!"

"Xiao Yi, you shouldn't have provoked Davis." Zhu Zhuqing looked at Yun Yi with a worried look on her face.

Yun Yi shook his head slightly and said, "From Davis' first answer, I knew he would not let you go. If a smart person saw that you followed me, he would directly agree. If I were with you, he would actually be able to take the throne more smoothly. The only loss would be some insignificant face. But he chose to ask who I was the first thing he did. Since we are destined to be enemies, why should we be polite?"

After saying that, Yun Yi instantly felt the pain in his waist.

Zhu Zhuqing stared at Yun Yi and asked, "What about my sister-in-law?"

After Zhu Zhuqing finished speaking, Yun Yi felt the same pain on the other side of his waist. He turned around and saw Shui Bing'er looking at him with a smile.

Yun Yi smiled and said to the two of them, "Just kidding, just kidding, isn't this just a way to provoke them? If that guy makes a move, I can beat him up and beat up my sister-in-law to vent your anger. I remember that when you first arrived at the academy, Zhuqing, you were injured."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes softened instantly, and she said to Yun Yi, "I don't care if you go looking for someone else, but if you dare to attack Zhu Zhuyun, humph!"

"How could that be? I just need a little cat." Yun Yi said with a smile.

Zhu Zhuqing blushed and gave Yun Yi a cold look.

"However, Xiaoyi, you still have to be careful. I'm afraid that Prince Xingluo will not let it go." Shui Bing'er said softly.

“You’re not willing to give up? I’ll beat the shit out of him in the competition. If you want to take revenge on me, you have to wait until the competition is over. In this small piece of land of Wuhun City, no one dares to be so presumptuous.” Yun Yi said with a smile.

The three of them were strolling in Wuhun City. Yun Yi saw the competition venue that Wuhun Hall had prepared in the distance. Perhaps to show off its own strength, Wuhun Hall had specially opened a battle field in the center of Wuhun City for the finals. The competition venue was large enough for soul masters below Soul Saint to give full play to their abilities, and the venue was paved with the hardest granite. In addition, soul guides were used to reinforce the venue. According to the staff of Wuhun Hall, this venue was enough to withstand any attack below Soul Saint level.

At this point, perhaps only the Spirit Hall is willing to do this. After all, the high-end combat power of the two empires is far inferior to that of the Spirit Hall. It would be a pity if such a good battlefield was built and left idle.

Fortunately, it was not like Yun Yi in the preliminaries, where he had to break it and then build a new one. If the energy level was too high, he could just send a Soul Douluo to push it over. After all, only a few people in the entire preliminaries could break the ring.

This competition stage is centered opposite the Pope's Palace, and is less than a kilometer away from the hill where the Pope's Palace is located. A notice posted by the Spirit Hall has announced that the top three in the finals will compete in front of the Pope's Palace. At that time, the Pope will appear in person and crown the final champion, which is an unparalleled honor for any soul master.

Yun Yi looked at the Pope's Palace on the distant mountainside with curiosity. He was very curious about what Bibi Dong looked like. Looking at the magnificent Pope's Palace, it has to be said that it is difficult to find a comparable building in the modern buildings of the previous life. To build such an exquisite palace on the mountain, soul masters must have been involved.

After a quick stroll, when everyone had gotten over the excitement, Yun Yi took the two of them back to the hotel, waiting for the competition to begin.

At the same time, in front of the Pope's Palace.

"Stop." The two leading palace knights wearing silver armor blocked Yu Xiaogang's path and continued to shout, "This is the Pope's Palace. You are not allowed to enter without being summoned. If you come one step closer, you will be killed."

Yu Xiaogang looked indifferent, raised his hand slightly, and the papal decree from Tang Hao appeared in his hand with a flash of light.

The leading knight guarding the palace quickly stepped forward. When he saw the six patterns on the token clearly, he couldn't help but show respect and slowly knelt down on one knee. "See the elders."

"Take me to see His Majesty the Pope." Yu Xiaogang said indifferently, looking at the knights guarding the palace as if they were looking at their own servants.

Half an hour later, in the meeting hall of the Pope's Palace, Yu Xiaogang was pacing back and forth in the hall, looking a little impatient.

"What is this woman doing? It's been half an hour." Yu Xiaogang frowned slightly, and the tea next to him had already been changed twice.

At this moment, the three-meter-high arch slowly opened, and a soft voice echoed in the hall, "Just wait outside. Don't disturb me without my order."

"Yes." The palace guard responded solemnly.

When the door opened, Bibi Dong felt a little excited when she looked at the figures deep in the hall, and the hand holding the scepter couldn't help but tremble.

Yu Xiaogang turned his gaze to the person who came, his expression froze, and his eyes couldn't help but show surprise. He saw Bibi Dong wearing a purple-gold dress. The gorgeous dress shimmered with precious light, which was quite dazzling.

He wore a nine-curved purple gold crown and held a two-meter-long scepter inlaid with gemstones. He had fair skin and a nearly perfect face. The invisible nobility and holiness he exuded made people want to worship him.

Bibi Dong is so stunningly beautiful, noble, elegant, and tranquil. It seems that all kinds of beautiful words can be applied to this woman. Although she is no longer young, time seems to have left no trace on her body.

The two people's gazes were entangled in the air. Bibi Dong looked at Yu Xiaogang in front of her and seemed to be back to the beautiful memories of the past.

"You're here." Bibi Dong's soft and pleasant voice rang out in the hall, and the voice seemed to be a little complicated.

Yu Xiaogang regained his composure and looked at Bibi Dong with anger in his eyes. He asked directly, "Why? Why did you arrange that ambush? What on earth do you want to do to Xiao San?"

Bibi Dong smiled bitterly. She never expected that the first thing Yu Xiaogang would do when they met again was to question him.

"Why? Master, don't you know why? He is Tang Hao's son and is destined to die!" Bibi Dong looked at Yu Xiaogang and sneered coldly.

Yu Xiaogang's pupils shrank, and he said sternly, "You have changed, Bibi Dong. Why have you become like this now? You are so cruel as to kill a child just to strike down the enemy!"

Bibi Dong smiled sadly upon hearing this. "Bibi Dong? I haven't heard this name for a long time, and I almost forgot it. Now please call me Your Holiness the Pope. You are right, I am no longer the Bibi Dong I used to be."

Yu Xiaogang's breathing became very heavy, and he spoke word by word, "Bibi Dong, listen to me carefully. If anything happens to Tang San, I will destroy the Spirit Hall at all costs. I have no children in my life, and he is like my son!"

Bibi Dong's emotions became obviously agitated. Her eyes were as cold as a venomous snake. She said word by word, "I just want to make you suffer. I will definitely kill your apprentice."

"You are such a lunatic!" Yu Xiaogang yelled at Bibi Dong, then turned and left.

Bibi Dong looked at the departing figure and murmured sadly, "Yes, I am crazy."

……

Three days later.

Early in the morning, all the participating students were led by the Spirit Hall's special personnel to the competition venue. Each academy had a separate rest area. The rest area was built around the competition venue. On the side opposite the Pope's Palace was the VIP judging seat. People who came on behalf of the two empires were all there to watch the game, and of course, there were also people from the Spirit Hall.

As soon as he arrived here, Yun Yi saw Tang San and Ning Rongrong. Including Yun Yi and Zhu Zhuqing, there were already four people, and the rest were naturally just extras.

Yun Yi looked at Tang San and smiled, "Xiao San, nothing happened that day, right?"

Tang San glanced at Yun Yi and said calmly, "With Senior Jian and Uncle Ning here, nothing will happen."

Yun Yi nodded with pretended concern and smiled, "I'm glad you're okay. Now that you're here, do your best and don't let the master down."

Tang San still maintained a calm expression and nodded.

Soon, a notice for drawing lots came from the Spirit Hall. Yun Yi, who didn't want to look at Tang San for even a second, directly asked Tang San, the tool man, to draw the lots.

As the first in the Tiandou competition area, Yun Yi's deputy team has the right to draw lots first.

Not long after, seeing the draw result, Yun Yi nodded with satisfaction, "In the first round of the finals, the Tiandou Royal Academy vice-team has a bye."

Yun Yi looked towards the Pope's Palace on the hillside in the distance with flickering eyes. He didn't believe how the lot was drawn if Bibi Dong hadn't given the green light. Among the thirty-three teams, his team and Tang San's team had a bye. Yun Yi didn't believe that Bibi Dong didn't give face to Yu Xiaogang. Yun Yi was also relieved. It would be even better if Bibi Dong gave him the byes before the finals.

Thinking of this, Yun Yi showed an expression of emotion, and became more and more curious about Bibi Dong. In the Douluo Continent, when it comes to gigolos, no one can compare to Yu Xiaogang. Unfortunately, Yu Xiaogang is a stubborn person. Qian Xunji has been gone for so many years and he has never thought about rekindling their old love. Yun Yi admires Yu Xiaogang for this.
