Genius in the whole system: The useless young lady dominates the world
Chapter 72 The Night King Arrives
After returning to the Blazing Flame Sect, Lu Lingxi Yao quickly finished refining the necessary pills and, without lingering for a moment, went into seclusion in her chamber.
After her duel with the man in black, she vaguely sensed a subtle yet powerful feeling, as if a force was stirring within her blood, waiting for the right moment to break free.
Meanwhile, the outside world's clamor and speculation surged toward the Blazing Flame Mercenary Group. As the rating conference drew closer, the name of the Blazing Flame Mercenary Group was mentioned countless times in the mercenary world, and its reputation and status were rapidly soaring.
However, all members of the Blazing Flame chose to go into seclusion and cultivate at this crucial moment, keeping their doors tightly shut and avoiding contact with the outside world, making them appear very mysterious.
However, when people saw batch after batch of intermediate-grade spirit stones being sent to Lieyan, they began to speculate about the extent of Lieyan's breakthrough during this seclusion. Could they shine at the rating conference and become famous overnight?
However, the Flame Mercenary Group has remained silent about all these speculations and questions, and has not revealed any information.
They were like a pack of cheetahs poised to pounce, quietly lurking in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
As dawn broke and the sky gradually turned a pale gold, the Mercenary Rating Conference slowly began amidst the anticipation of everyone.
The Mercenary Rating Tournament is held once a year in various countries. This year it is the turn of Lingyue Kingdom, and the venue is the dueling arena in Jinyuan City. Jinyuan City has the largest open-air dueling arena in Lingyue Kingdom, which can accommodate tens of thousands of spectators at the same time.
At the entrance to the dueling arena, crowds surged, like winding rivers converging here. Several burly mercenaries in uniform guarded the entrance, meticulously and politely checking each admission ticket.
Those who failed to get tickets, though kept outside, did not lose any enthusiasm. They either stood on tiptoe to look around or discussed the event in small groups.
A clear and melodious carriage bell rang out quietly, its sound unhurried and leisurely. In the blink of an eye, a magnificent carriage arrived, stunning everyone's eyes.
The entire carriage was made of thousand-year-old golden nanmu wood, with all the nails wrapped in gold. A pair of golden decorations at the front of the carriage were dazzling. The body of the carriage was tightly wrapped in expensive and delicate silk, colorful yet elegant. The gold and silver jewels and exquisite patterns inlaid on it were ingenious and breathtaking.
The gilded and jeweled windows were gently veiled by a light and flowing white gauze curtain, which both concealed the privacy inside the car and added a touch of hazy beauty.
There were four horses pulling the carriage. These horses were high-level spirit beasts from the Frosty Forest of the Northern Ice Region—the Snow Dragon Heavenly Horses. They could travel a thousand miles a day, whether in the sky or on the ground, and were not something that ordinary people could obtain. The horses were pure white, with handsome and strong bodies. Their silvery-white manes and agile gait made them look very dashing.
As the carriage moved slowly forward, the crowd spontaneously moved to both sides, making way for a wide and unobstructed road.
The people's eyes followed the carriage closely, their faces filled with curiosity and awe. For a moment, the entire street seemed to stand still, with only the soft rumbling of the carriage and the gentle sound of the snow dragon's hooves hitting the dust.
Finally, the carriage slowly came to a stop in front of the dueling arena. A tall, slender man dressed in blue stepped down from one side of the carriage. His face was indifferent, and his dark eyes revealed an undeniable sharpness and killing intent, inspiring awe and making people dare not approach him easily.
He deftly straightened his robes, then respectfully lifted the carriage curtain, extended his arm, and said in a deep, magnetic voice, "Your Highness, we've arrived. Watch your step!"
Upon hearing this, a low gasp of surprise erupted from the crowd. People whispered in disbelief and discussed the matter animatedly.
"My God! It's the Eternal Night King, Bei Chen Haoyu! He actually came in person to observe the mercenary rankings?"
The man in blue robes swept his sharp gaze across the crowd, and the whispers immediately ceased, the entire scene falling silent in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, a slender finger gently rested on his arm, and a tall, handsome young man stepped out of the carriage.
He was dressed in a magnificent brocade robe, with a priceless jade pendant hanging at his waist. His steps were steady and elegant, and every gesture exuded a kingly demeanor. He radiated an extraordinary and noble aura.
"It's been a long time since I've been here, and Jinyuan City is still as lively as ever."
Bei Chen Haoyu spoke softly, his deep, bright eyes filled with a profound affection and appreciation for this land. He looked at the bustling yet simple people around him, his eyes filled with satisfaction.
