I only have passive skills, so I'm extremely cautious

After everyone placed their luggage in the courtyard, they walked towards the square outside the palace together.

There is the auditorium and competition office for this competition, and it is also the gathering place for participating colleges.

A flag stood high, fluttering in the wind over the square.

It has a scarlet background, surrounded by white gold stars, and in the center is a dragon head totem in the style of an ancient painting.

This is the flag of the Chiyan Empire!

Under the national flag, there were crowds of people, but the central area of ​​the square was guarded by the Imperial Army and fenced off, so pedestrians could only stop outside.

"Please show your student ID card," a staff member said politely.

Chen Zhong and others took it out and handed it to them.

"Tianyan Academy!" A young female staff member exclaimed, looking curiously.

As soon as they heard that students from Tianyan Academy appeared here, everyone around them looked at them.

Among the curiosity, envy, and surprise, there was also a bit of fighting spirit.

"The students from Imperial College are here!" someone shouted again.

A large group of young people walked together, wearing luxurious gold-plated school uniforms, more like well-tailored military uniforms.

There are four people at the head, three men and one woman.

Chen Zhong's pupils shrank, these four people were all eighteen or nineteen years old, but they were all in the late stage of Xiaocheng realm.

Two are at the ninth level of Xiaocheng Realm, and two are at the eighth level of Xiaocheng Realm!

"The man and woman in the middle are brother and sister. The man's name is Yu Qixuan and the woman's name is Yu Qiya." Yuan Wucha introduced to everyone in a low voice, "You should know from the last name and class. One of these two is a prince. , one is a princess!”

The young prince, Yu Qixuan, is at the ninth level of the Xiaocheng realm. He has both political integrity and talent, an upright character, is addicted to cultivation, and does not pursue power. It is precisely because of this that he is especially taken care of by many royal brothers.

The little princess Yu Qiya, who is at the eighth level of Xiaocheng Realm, is also devoted to cultivation. She is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is very popular in the palace.

"Where are the other two?" Chen Zhong asked.

Yuan Wucha nodded at the young man with long ponytail hair on the left, "His name is Sima Xiao. He is the young patriarch of the Sima family. He is at the ninth level of Xiaocheng realm and is also a fourth-level spiritual formation master. This man is very low-key and cautious in his conduct. He is cautious and his methods are extremely mysterious. Very few people see him take action.”

Sima smiled, with red lips and white teeth, a feminine appearance but not effeminate, and a slight smile hanging from the corner of his mouth. His whole person was not sinister at all, but had the bearing of a Taoist heir.

"The one on the right with the indifferent face is the eldest son of Lei, and the brother of the two idiots in our college. His name seems to be Lei Lichen, who is at the eighth level of Xiaocheng. I heard that he is not easy to get along with, and he will get in trouble if you don't pay attention. The arm is removed." After Yuan Wusha finished speaking, the people from the Imperial College had almost arrived.

"Tianyan Academy? Welcome to the imperial capital!" Yu Qixuan raised his eyebrows and greeted him warmly and friendly.

"It's a pity that Huo Xundao has graduated. The current Tianyan Academy is not a concern," Lei Lichen, with a pair of dead fish eyes, said coldly, and then looked up and down, "Are you Yuan Wucha? The current top list of monsters?"

Yuan Wucha showed no sign of weakness, "You talk so much...is it because you have muscle weakness?"

Lei Lichen sneered and taunted himself, "Although my two younger brothers are both useless, your virtuous family is not qualified to be compared with the Lei family."

Yuan Wucha wanted to verbally scold him, but Chen Zhong pressed his shoulder and whispered, "Senior, let's go, the road is blocked."

At this time, Yu Qixuan stepped forward and took over Lei Lichen's words, "Wucha Spirit King? I have long admired your name!"

His words and deeds do not have the authority that a prince should have, but are full of the atmosphere of the world.

He doesn't want to get along with him as a prince, as he won't be able to make true friends that way.

It just so happened that Yuan Wucha was not a person who liked rigid etiquette, "Haha, classmate Qi Xuan, you are so polite. I come from an unknown background, so I am no better than some people."

Lei Lichen frowned and was about to have an attack, but because of the occasion, he walked into the venue first.

There was a long queue behind, and many people were watching the fun. Everyone tacitly stopped arguing.

Yu Qixuan looked at Chen Zhong in surprise. He could clearly tell that Yuan Wucha, the top evildoer, had great respect for this young man!

"He should be the master of the Shangshan Sect." Sima Xiao, who had remained silent, said.

"Oh?" Yu Qiya was a little interested, "Did those talismans in Shangshan Store come from him?"

Sima Xiao nodded, "That should be the case. Princess, is the one on your clothes the most virtuous fly whisk talisman?"

Yu Qiya pulled off a beautiful talisman attached to the corner of her clothes, "These talismans are clever and exquisite, and they are very popular in the palace."

Yu Qixuan asked, "Brother Xiao, in your opinion, how good is this magic talisman?"

Sima Xiao, a fourth-level spiritual formation master, said with sincere admiration, "It is perfect and beyond my reach. When it comes to the way of spiritual formation, I am not as good as Yan Sui from Tianyan Academy, and this person has a more thorough spiritual formation attainment than Yan Sui... …a lot of!"

The brother and sister were shocked and looked at each other.

"It seems that the master of the Shangshan Sect...is hiding very deep!"

Lei Lichen, who was walking in front, said with disdain, "No matter how strong his spiritual formation is, he is only in the Blood Surge Realm. Without the foundation of basic strength, no matter how many heresies he uses, they are just nonsense."

Yu Qiya curled her lips, "That makes sense. The Qiange Ancient Battlefield tests the most direct combat effectiveness. It is difficult to have enough time to set up the spiritual formation."

Snap!

Yu Qixuan gave his sister a gentle slap, "Don't underestimate your enemies. There are so many geniuses in this world. What you worry about most is arrogance and arrogance. Keep a humble attitude!"

Yu Qiya felt aggrieved and said, "Yes, I understand."

Sima smiled and raised the corner of his mouth, always smiling like this, and glanced at Chen Zhong behind him, with endless fear in his eyes.

He can reach the ninth level of Xiaocheng Realm and become a spiritual formation master at the peak of the fourth level at the same time, which shows that the sea of ​​soul is very broad and the power of the soul is several times purer than ordinary people.

However, when he faced Chen Zhong, he felt timid for no reason, like a small lake facing a sea of ​​stars.

"This competition... I guess Tianyan Academy will win the championship again." Sima Xiao muttered. He didn't care about the so-called vanity of ranking, and he had no intention of making enemies.

In Buddhist practice, advance when you can, retreat when you need to, obey God's will, and good fortune will come naturally.

Behind, Chen Zhong and a group of people were discussing in low voices.

"Except for Lei Lichen, who is full of explosives, I think everyone else is pretty good and not too arrogant." Tang Sui said.

"Of course, how can a playboy reach this level? Besides, in today's era, mindless arrogance will only lead to trouble." Zhou Chaoyin rubbed Tang Sui's head.

Chen Zhong turned around and said with a smile, "The more arrogant ones are yet to come. After all, the Imperial College is directly under the empire, and the school ethos and disciplines are very strict."

"Still behind?" Jia Shuangshuang was confused and looked back.

At the entrance, a fistfight broke out.

A group of people were beating up several students from another college. It was the intervention of the Imperial Army that stopped the unilateral violence.

Chen Zhong happened to know the person who hit him.

The little fire dragon of Fire Hell!

This guy is now at the eighth level of Xiaocheng Realm, and his temper is getting more and more violent. Those students just accidentally squeezed him, and he started fighting, beating several students until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen.

"Yes, Sifang United College is really chaotic. They work in separate camps. People in the school often fight in groups. Although they are strong, the school spirit is only third-rate!" Levi mocked.

The Sifang United Academy is clearly divided into four groups.

"For the team at the back, pay attention to the leader," Yuan Wucha said attentively, "The leader of the four major forces, Zhenshan Pavilion, is the youngest son of the pavilion master, Zheng Haichuan, who is at the peak of the ninth level of Xiaocheng Realm."

Li Wei, who had done enough research, also said, "In this competition, there are four ceilings, Yu Qixuan, Sima Xiao, Zheng Haichuan, and our Wusha Spirit King... Of course, if Junior Chen Zhong is serious, , I think everything is easy.”

Chen Zhong smiled and waved his hands repeatedly, "Senior, don't brag about me. How can I, with a blood surge state, make a huge difference? No matter how many magic talismans there are, they are just external things. If we want to win the championship this time, we still have to rely on Senior Wusha."

After chatting about the news, Chen Zhong and Yuan Wusha parted ways with the others and went to the reporting office to register.

Others went to the auditorium ticket office and bought high-priced seats. Fortunately, none of them were unknown people, otherwise it would be difficult for them to get the auditorium in the square if they had money.

Of course, this seat cannot directly see the game, because there will be more than a dozen large-screen live broadcasts during the game tomorrow. It will undoubtedly be more enjoyable to buy a good seat. The key is to be closer to the palace ceremony stage, and you can see many things that can only be seen on weekdays. A big shot seen on TV.

For example...Emperor Chi Yan!

Registration reporting office.

Chen Zhong and the two took their fingerprints, signed a life and death agreement, and walked out of the temporary bungalow.

"You two run very fast." Vice Dean Lang Yue said as he entered the door.

Behind him, followed a group of Tianyan students.

"Alas, your airship is too slow." Yuan Wusha chuckled.

"You two, have you finished?" Lang Yue scolded with a smile, "When you're done, get ready for me. We'll enter the ancient battlefield early tomorrow morning."

After bidding farewell to Lang Yue, the two met up with Jia Shuangshuang and the others at a corner of the square, and then returned to the courtyard together.

That night, Chen Zhong worked overtime to integrate the collected information about the Qiange Ancient Battlefield, and studied with Yuan Wucha until after two o'clock in the middle of the night.

"Thousands of years of demonic energy have been deposited in the ground, and the souls of life are wandering and will never dissipate. These half-body, half-soul monsters are called ancient demons, but there are also huge opportunities hidden in ancient battlefields. Often, places where ancient demons are densely populated, There is an ancient demon hidden in it.”

Chen Zhong read this message and thought about his action strategy for the next week.

The ancient demon hides every inch of the battlefield, so it is unrealistic to quietly arrange the spiritual formation. Fortunately, I have refined a few spiritual talismans in advance, which should be enough.

In this case, it is most appropriate to engage in guerrilla warfare. Anyway, you only need to persist until the end, and there is no need to actively arrest people. The main task is to find treasures.

"That Lei Lichen will definitely cause trouble for us," Yuan Wusha knocked on the table, "I'll be my son if he comes alone, and I'm not afraid of adding Yu Qi It's a bit difficult to deal with at the eighth or ninth level, especially Sima Xiao, I can't see through that person, he's just as well hidden as you, junior!"

"Don't worry, the other three people are not from the same group as Lei Lichen." Chen Zhong still has this judgment. "I seem to be hiding deep because I don't hide anything at all."

I still have to defend myself. Apart from some inferior trump cards and unreliable passive skills, I really have nothing!

"Get some sleep to recharge your batteries." Chen Zhong stood up and said, "Go to the bathroom."

Pushing open the wooden door, Chen Zhong jumped into the courtyard and stared closely at the eaves on one side.

Buzz!

The spiritual formation rose, and a cold light flashed across it as fast as the wind.

Chen Zhong approached and saw two more corpses on the ground. He looked through them and found no obvious features.

But Chen Zhong knew that he was most likely a spy from the Yan family or the Lei family.

puff.

Yang Qin, who caught the mask, fell from the sky, holding a human head in his hand, and said calmly, "The leader of these people is on the second floor of the Soul Tempering Realm. He has the emblem of the Yan family on his body."

After throwing a few corpse melting talismans, Chen Zhong snorted coldly, "I want to see what tricks they can come up with. I am not going north just to participate in an unnecessary competition."

"You hide first. Don't make any moves recently if you can. The capital is more crowded than other cities, not to mention that many big players have come to the competition during this period." Chen Zhong reminded.

"Okay."

With a leap, Yang Qin disappeared in the moonlight.

Chen Zhong paused, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and then returned to the bedroom.

Behind the window at the back, Li Weier was peeping.

Of course, Chen Zhong did it on purpose. This cunning guy didn't have a master-servant contract, and the connection with him was more about interests.

So it is necessary to reveal a little bit of things occasionally!

Look, Li Weier's brain fire almost burned him out.

His face flushed and his heartbeat accelerated.

My hunch was right!

Chen Zhong is undoubtedly a big shot!

Flying in the sky, that's a master-level strongman!

A master-level actually obeys Chen Zhong's orders? What does this mean!

Chen Zhong is the dark hand of this world!

Although Li Weier doesn't know why he has deviated to this direction, no matter what, don't be afraid to make a bold guess.

If Chen Zhong is really the king behind the scenes, he must have subordinates all over the world, so what is his goal...

In this way, Li Weier stayed up all night and was excited until early in the morning.

On this day, the whole country was in an excited state.

Not only was it broadcast live on the big screen in the square, some of the pictures would also be synchronized on TV and the Internet, so almost every citizen could watch the game.

The audience seats in the square were already full, with a total of more than a thousand seats, and all the people sitting there were either rich or noble.

On the other side, more than 3,000 participating students were ready to go, and transport planes were parked not far away.

The opening ceremony is here!

Amid the interweaving of music and cheers, several figures walked out of the palace wall.

They are the Dean of Tianyan College, Xu Xiaodao, who is at the first level of Grandmaster Realm, and his real strength is comparable to that of the seventh level of Grandmaster Realm.

The Dean of Imperial College and National Master, Yang Fu, is at the seventh level of Grandmaster Realm.

The one in the middle, wearing a red gold robe, a glazed white gold dragon crown, a square face that is majestic without anger, and the imperial charm of heaven and earth is contained in his eyebrows.

The Red Flame Emperor, Yu Yongren!

He is not only the Supreme Human Emperor of the Lower Realm, but also a super giant at the eighth level of Grandmaster Realm!

Yongren is not a mediocre person, although he often ridicules himself as a mediocre person. Since he came to power, the empire has ushered in the most developed economic period, improving welfare, peace and prosperity, strengthening the arbitration office, and national well-being. He also maintains an incomparable balance between ordinary society and spiritual society.

"Spiritual power bathes all living beings, all things in heaven and earth are equal, and you don't need to kneel down..."

Yu Yongren's voice is very magnetic, with a slightly hoarse feeling from smoking too much.

After saying a few words, he officially announced the start of the competition.

It seems that he is an emperor who doesn't like red tape.

Swish——

More than a dozen large screens lit up, and the live broadcast began!

On TV, thousands of students received their identity jade cards, boarded the plane, and crossed the wasteland and mountains to the black land.

After an unknown amount of time, the plane suddenly shook and slowed down.

Chen Zhong touched a vest under his coat and suddenly opened his eyes.

The vest was made of 100% spiritual talismans. He and Yuan Wusha each had one. There were more than a dozen fourth-grade spiritual talismans, and the rest were third-grade spiritual talismans.

The plane landed, which meant that the fight was about to begin!
