Chapter 9 The competition begins
Jagger had already guessed that Amy would object and had already thought of an excuse.
"Sister, I know you are worried about me, but don't worry, I am confident that I can pass the competition and join the Bauhinia Army."
"What confidence? What confidence do you have? I don't know you yet?" Amy grabbed Jagger's ear directly.
"Do you know how dangerous the competition is? You stay in the city, do you hear me? Uh..."
Amy's expression suddenly changed because he saw a black sword light coming out from Jaeger's fingertips. The sword light was restrained, as if it had swallowed up all the light around it.
"This is……"
Amy was very familiar with this move, because it was the unique move she created after combining the mystery of dark elements and the mystery of devouring.
"Sister, I didn't lie to you."
Because one of his ears was pulled, Jagger could only tilt his head to talk to Amy.
"Little brother, when did you learn it?" Amy let go of her hand and stared at the sword light on Jager's fingertips in disbelief.
"Sis, didn't you demonstrate it to me last time?" Jager said with a proud smile.
Amy took a deep breath, digesting the scene before her.
Last demonstration? How long ago was that? A hundred years? Two hundred years?
How long did it take him to fuse the two mysteries? Five hundred years, and the breakthrough happened during a battle!
Amy couldn't believe that her younger brother, who had always been far less talented than her, had suddenly risen to prominence.
It took Amy a while to finally accept the fact that Jaeger, like her, had merged the two mysteries.
"It seems that you are indeed capable of joining the Bauhinia Army."
Amy sighed and said, "In that case, I won't stop you."
“Sister, you don’t have to carry the family alone anymore. I will catch up with you soon.” said Jeger.
Amy smiled with relief: "Okay, I'm looking forward to it."
"However, if you participate in the competition, you must be careful. There are countless strong people in Hell. If you really meet an opponent you can't deal with, don't force it. The most important thing is to stay alive." Amy reminded Jagger.
"Don't worry, sister, I don't want to die yet." Jiger said with a smile.
In the end, eleven people from the Joyce family signed up. In addition to the eight people brought by Amy, there were two people who were originally in Blue Maple City who wanted to sign up. Together with Jaeger, there were a total of eleven people.
Ten years passed quickly, the registration deadline came, and the next day was the day of the competition.
Due to the large number of applicants, there was no suitable venue in the city, so the competition was set outside the gate of Lanfeng City.
Early in the morning, Amy took the Joyce family out of town.
Over the past ten years, there have been more people coming to Lanfeng City. In addition to those who want to participate in the competition, there are also many who come to watch the fun. The hotels in the city are full every day.
At this moment, there were huge crowds of people outside Lanfeng City, and all the Bauhinia Army of Lanfeng City were dispatched to maintain order.
In order to ensure the smooth progress of the competition, the Bauhinia Army issued an order that no fighting was allowed outside the city gate until the end of the competition.
This also attracted many families, tribes and bandit gangs outside the city to come and watch the battle without worry.
Outside Lanfeng City, both in heaven and on earth, there were powerful god-level warriors watching the battle.
A large number of Bauhinia Army soldiers were divided into teams of 50, scattered around to maintain order.
These soldiers of the Bauhinia Army all wore purple uniforms, and purple robes embroidered with gold edges. They also had special purple marks on their foreheads.
At this moment, two streams of light flew out from the city, and in the blink of an eye, they were in the sky outside the city. This sudden appearance of light attracted everyone's attention.
Although flying is not prohibited in the city, those who do not have a certain level of strength dare not do so openly.
The light faded away, revealing two figures, a man and a woman.
With the appearance of the two, there were exclamations from people outside the city.
"It's the City Lord!"
"And the lords of the Bauhinia Army!"
Of the two, the man was wearing the same uniform as the Bauhinia Army, while the woman was wearing a blue robe.
The man is Loveman, the leader of the Bauhinia Army of Blue Maple City, and the woman is the lord of Blue Maple City, the "Blue Maple Demon".
"City Lord Lan Feng is a seven-star demon. Loveman can stand shoulder to shoulder with Lan Feng, so he is probably also a seven-star demon. The strength of the Bauhinia Army is worth looking forward to!" Jager was secretly excited as he looked at the two powerful men in the air.
The stronger the Bauhinia Army is, the better it will be for him.
In the air, Loveman and the Blue Maple Demon looked at each other, and then Loveman spoke loudly: "The competition begins, everyone get ready!"
The soldiers of the Bauhinia Army had obviously made arrangements in advance. Upon hearing Loveman's order, some teams began to act.
The soldiers began to disperse, and everyone stretched out his palms. Dense black light flowed among the soldiers of the Bauhinia Army, forming a large black net. Seeing this, the onlookers subconsciously moved away, and soon a clear area was separated in the air.
The Bauhinia Army used large black nets to separate a total of 55 such open areas.
A member of the Bauhinia Army began to speak, and under the influence of divine power, his voice was clearly heard by everyone around him.
"There are 55 competition venues in total, 5 of which belong to the upper god area, and 50 belong to the middle god area. Those who have registered can enter after being verified by the Bauhinia Army soldiers outside the area. The middle god can choose any area from the 50 middle god areas to enter. The same applies to the upper gods. After three hours, entry will be stopped and the competition will officially begin."
"The way of the competition is very simple. It is a free-for-all. No matter life or death, no limit to the means. When there is only one person left in the area, that person will become a member of the Bauhinia Army. Those who are afraid of death can give up. After entering the area, if you want to admit defeat, you can choose to leave the area. Okay, start choosing the area."
After hearing the introduction of the Bauhinia Army, the people around were suddenly in an uproar and began to talk.
The Bauhinia Army recruits people infrequently, and the method is different each time. Before today, many people had never thought that it would be this way.
"It turned out to be a melee. This is troublesome." Amy said with a serious expression.
She originally thought it would be a one-on-one duel. If that were the case, she would win as long as she was strong, but if it was a mixed fight, there would be more variables.
"Do you want to reconsider this? A melee is very dangerous. Although you will admit defeat as long as you leave the area, once the melee begins, there will be enemies everywhere. At that time, you won't be able to leave just because you want to." Amy looked at the several tribesmen who had signed up.
There was hesitation on their faces.
It seems that he has the intention to back off, but he still has reservations.
Amy said, "If you are not sure, just give up. It is not shameful to be cautious. Don't be embarrassed and don't wait until you die to regret it."
Several tribesmen seemed relieved when they heard this.
"Chief, I give up."
“I give up too.
Among the ten tribesmen, six finally chose to give up, and four still wanted to give it a try.
Amy did not blame those who gave up, but for those who wanted to join the battle, Amy urged: "Do your best, but your life comes first."
"Yes, patriarch."
