Soul Devouring Sword Master

The Golden Jade Casino is the largest underground casino in the Imperial City. Rumor has it that someone once used only one low-grade spiritual stone and won hundreds of high-grade spiritual stones from here, which is tens of millions of gold coins.

It can be seen that this Golden Jade Casino has a large flow of people and high stakes. People with the ability can get rich here overnight, while those with a fortune can also go bankrupt here overnight.

A plump figure walked into the Golden Jade Casino. The place was already crowded with people, and many people were hesitant about who to buy to win.

"Who do you think will make it into the top ten in this first round of assessment?"

"In my opinion, there is basically no pressure on the three heroes of Nangong. Adding Murong Shi, the people at the top of the internal rankings of Wenjian Academy, and the Wang family, the top ten list is basically like this."

"Is there a dark horse? If you are lucky enough to beat a dark horse, you will make a lot of money."

"Tch, there are more than 600 people participating in this prestigious list. How can one be so easily defeated by a dark horse? Besides, it's not certain whether there is a dark horse."

Chen Fan came to a wall. On the wall, there were densely written names, all of which were people who participated in the competition for the pride list.

Among them, the names of Nangong Three Heroes, Murong Shi and others are written at the top. In the eyes of most people, it is certain that these people will enter the top ten. The odds are also the lowest, basically close to one to one, so there are very few people. Go buy it.

In contrast, for some contestants who are not the best but have a good reputation, many people place bets. As long as they can guess one correctly, they can earn back more than ten times their capital.

The lower the names go, the fewer people buy. There is even a player who pays more than 100 yuan.

Chen Fan searched for a long time on the wall before he found Lin Xiao's name at the bottom.

Lin Xiao's odds have reached more than 200 to 1. It seems that not many people support him. After all, I am afraid that not many people have heard of this name.

However, if anyone knew that Lin Xiao was the Mr. Xiao who single-handedly destroyed the Dugu family not long ago, I wonder what everyone would think.

"Boss, brother, I must support you."

With that, Chen Fan walked to the counter and gave Lin Xiao's number to a young man, "I want to buy this, a middle-grade spiritual stone that will make me enter the top ten in the first round of assessment."

"Okay, what's your name?"

"Chen Fan."

"Okay," the young man recorded the information in the book and handed Chen Fan a sign. "Take this sign. If you win the chat, you can use it to receive the reward."

Chen Fan nodded and then said, "Well, um, I'll buy this one again, No. 27, three middle-grade spiritual stones."

After finishing, Chen Fan couldn't help but touch his nose.

Afterwards, Chen Fan, holding two signs, left the casino and came to the crowd outside the square.

In the square, more than 600 young men and women have gathered. All of them have extraordinary temperament and piercing eyes. They are obviously outstanding figures from various major families.

The Star Empire has a population of hundreds of millions, and more than 600 young men and women have been selected from it, which shows how valuable it is.

Yes, any one of these more than 600 people is a one-in-a-million talent.

However, if you want to be on the pride list, you must be the talented among the talented. Most of these people are destined to be eliminated.

Only thirty-six people will be selected for the pride list. That is, among these more than 600 people, only the last thirty-six names that pass all examinations can be written on the pride list.

Only the top ten on the pride list will be eligible to participate in the Canglan List competition one year later.

"Everyone, be quiet."

An old man in yellow robe appeared in front of the square, waving his hands gently. Behind him were many young men and women participating in the competition for the pride list.

The crowd fell silent instantly and stared at the old man in the square.

This old man in yellow robe is surprisingly one of the three vice-presidents of the Royal Academy, named Nangong He.

Originally, this competition for pride was held in the imperial city and should have been organized by members of the royal family. However, it was single-handedly organized by the Nangong family. Many people could not help but sigh. Sure enough, the imperial family was declining and it would not be long before it would be annexed by the Nangong family.

"This competition for the pride list will be participated by all those who are twenty-five years old and below the Xuanling realm. There will be two assessments, divided into a preliminary examination and a re-examination."

"The preliminary examination will be held in the Huangji Secret Realm. Ranking will be based on the number and grade of demon pills obtained by hunting. The top 100 will enter the re-examination."

"Including elixirs that can enhance strength, as well as special means to hide power, etc. Secondly..."

Ten minutes later, after the rules were announced, Nangonghe waved his sleeves. Suddenly, the space rippled like ripples, and then a whirlpool with a diameter of five or six meters emerged.

"Space Vortex Crisis"

Among the crowd, Murong Shi looked indifferent. As a second-level spiritual pattern master, she could naturally tell that this spatial vortex was leading to the Emperor's Secret Realm.

"After stepping into this vortex, you can randomly enter different places in the Royal Secret Realm. There are monsters of various levels inside. What you have to do is to get as many monster pills as possible in one month. Because that will determine your ranking in the preliminary exam.”

"Okay, let's go in."
