The location of Tianshen Palace does not belong to any city, but is located in a mountain range where monsters are rampant. The name of this mountain range has long been forgotten, but now it is only known as the Tianshen Mountain Range.

The main hall of the Tenjin Palace is located on the highest mountain in the Tenjin Mountain Range, which is called Mount Celestial.

Gu Ding and the others, who had qualified for the preliminary competition, rushed to the foot of Celestial Mountain in the city lord's floating boat all the way.

Looking at the steep cliffs soaring into the clouds, many people are amazed at the majesty of this mountain.

"Master City Master, why don't we go directly to Tianshen Palace and stop here?" One person couldn't help asking.

"There are many restrictions near this Celestial Mountain, including the ban on flying. If you want to reach the Tenjin Palace, you must start from the foot of the mountain and climb up the mountain." The city lord Capson explained patiently. "This mountain climbing is actually the preliminary competition of Tianshen Palace, but the rules of the game will change every year, so I won't say much about it. Someone will explain it to you tomorrow morning."

Guding and the others had to wait patiently for the arrival of the preliminary round the next day.

After this day, Gu Ding and the others saw many spaceships arriving one after another. Those ships were large and small, and the number of people on the spaceships was also large and small. It wasn't until evening that the frequency of spacecraft arrivals decreased. At the foot of the mountain, many people have already gathered.

Early the next morning, three men in purple robes appeared in the area where everyone gathered. The leader looked a little older, about thirty years old, and he glanced around before speaking.

"I'm Battery, the examiner for the first round of preliminary rounds. Now let's briefly talk about the content and rules of the assessment."

"In the first round of preliminary competition, the assessment content is mountain climbing. Those who arrive at the square in front of the main hall of Tianshen Palace within the specified time will be considered as passing the preliminary competition."

"Advanced players must finish within three hours. Intermediate players must complete within 20 hours. Low-level players must complete within 100 hours. Anyone who exceeds this time limit, even if Those who fail to step on the ground of the square in time for more than one second will be eliminated."

"It doesn't sound like it's very difficult..." Hearing the rules of the game, many people looked up at the mountain, secretly rejoicing that the content of the assessment this time was too simple.

"I know what you are thinking. Many people must think that it is just a simple thing to climb a mountain. Then, let me tell you something." Bartley obviously noticed the expressions on many people's faces, he The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he continued.

"This mountain. Gravity is different from the ground we stand on, and it varies with the strength of each person's physical body. The stronger the physical body, the stronger the gravity felt. Moreover, as each person climbs As you go up, the gravity will gradually increase."

"In addition to the influence of gravity, this mountain is also the habitat of many monsters. These monsters have a strong sense of territory, and they will actively attack all 'intruders'. And some of them are very powerful .So, three different ranks. We conduct the assessment in batches. During the assessment of the intermediate rank and the elementary rank, we will seal those powerful monsters."

"Then, the first batch of assessments will start from the advanced ranks." Batley's voice cleared away and reached everyone's ears. "All players in the advanced ranks, please prepare, the countdown, three, two, one...start!"

As soon as his voice fell, countless true god-level powerhouses rushed out. The figure quickly disappeared into the lush vegetation.

Guding and the others couldn't see anything, so they could only wait patiently.

Three hours feels like a long time. But Neptune saw the entire process of the game in his eyes.

Lilian, dressed in a black robe, appeared in front of a ninth-order true god powerhouse.

"Woman. Get out of the way!" The man looked at Lilian with an unkind expression.

"Answer me a question. If the answer satisfies me, I will naturally let go." Lilian obviously had no intention of giving way.

"You're courting death!" The man jumped up and rushed towards Lilian.

Lilian's figure suddenly disappeared, and in the next moment, she had already stepped on the man's head, smashing the back of the man's head into the ground, and the sole of her high-heeled shoes stepped on the man's forehead.

"I ask you to answer, or die!" Lilian's voice was still cold.

Aware of the gap in strength, the man simply stopped struggling and just responded vaguely.

"Four months ago, what did you show up in the main city of Shattrath for?" Lilian asked coldly.

"In order to participate in an auction, I will sell some of the inventory in my hand." The man replied quickly.

"Inventory? Does your inventory contain an eighth-sequence red flame demon tree?!" Lilian continued to ask.

"The Scarlet Flame Demon Tree? No. It's useless when it doesn't bear fruit. When it does bear fruit, it must be guarded by the ninth sequence of monsters, so I won't provoke it." The man waved his hand.

"One day four months ago, did you notice a powerful fluctuation of combat energy?" Lilian frowned slightly, what the other party said was not the result she wanted.

"There was indeed one day, and it was a terrifying battle energy fluctuation. I suspected that it was the powerhouse of the tenth sequence. There is no corpse left, and there are no other clues." The man carefully recalled the scene at that time.

"that is all?"

"That's all, I really don't know the rest." The man waved his hand quickly, and the black shadow flashed in the distance, and the man disappeared.

A few minutes later, Lilian appeared in front of the second Ninth Sequence True God, who was a long-haired man.

"Beauty, are you looking for someone to go with you?" The long-haired man teased the first time he saw Lilian. Obviously, he was very confident in his own strength.

"I have a few questions I want to ask you." Lilian directly cut to the point. Since the other party didn't resist, she didn't need to do anything.

"I'm single now, and I don't have a girlfriend. If you ask me out, the answer I give will be yes. So..." The long-haired man was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"Four months ago, you appeared in the main city of Shattrath. What was your purpose?"

"My home is in the main city of Shattrath. It's nothing unusual for me to appear there. Besides, there are only seven main cities in this world. Most of the true gods live in these seven main cities. On average, every The number of true gods living in the main city will not be small." The long-haired man felt that the other party's question was a bit inexplicable.

"Have you ever hunted down an eighth-order true god-level scarlet flame demon tree?" Lilian then asked.

"Hunting? No. Only the fruit of the Scarlet Flame Demon Tree is useful. If you encounter it, you can grab a few fruits at most. Why bother to hunt?" The long-haired man still finds this question very strange. "Besides, I have never seen the red flame fruit tree in the eighth sequence."

"On a certain day four months ago, did you notice a strong battle energy fluctuation?"

"You're talking about one day, when two powerful energy fluctuations suddenly erupted in succession? I felt it that day too. The aura was much stronger than mine, and many other people in the city rushed over. I'm too lazy to mix it up." And, I didn't go." The long-haired man wanted to say something more, but when he looked up, he found that Lilian had disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, Lilian found the third person, and the fourth person...

Neptune also probed her movements all the way, wanting to know what she wanted to do.

Three hours passed quickly, and Lilian asked about twenty people along the way, all with similar questions, but the Sea Emperor still didn't know what the other party's purpose was.

"The time is up!" Examiner Battery stopped the competition in time, "We have also calculated the results of the competition. There are more than 80,000 high-level contestants, and the number of people who passed the assessment is 36,861. .”

Hearing this result, there was a lot of discussion among the crowd.

"The pass rate is less than half!"

"True god-level powerhouses have such a high elimination rate!"

"It seems that this preliminary competition is not as simple as we thought before."

Everyone finally realized that the so-called "mountain climbing" was not as simple as they imagined before. Even the pass rate of those powerful true gods was less than half, and many people suddenly felt a little nervous.

"The competition for the advanced ranks is over, so now it's our turn for the intermediate ranks. The time limit for the intermediate ranks is 20 hours. If you fail to reach the square in 20 hours, it will be considered a failure. Please pay attention to the time yourself." Battery again He said, "All the players in the intermediate ranks are ready, the countdown starts now, three, two, one...start!"

Countless half-step true gods behaved the same as the previous true gods, rushing out quickly, for fear of falling behind.

Gu Ding walked slowly towards the mountain hundreds of meters away, not panicking at all. His appearance also attracted the attention of many people.

"This kid is a bit interesting." Bartley couldn't help laughing, but he also found out that Guding's cultivation was only a seven-star half-step true god, so he cast a puzzled look at the city lord Capsen, "But The boy's cultivation..."

"Don't be fooled by his cultivation, his combat power ranks first among the half-step true gods in our Wula City." Capsen shook his head and smiled.

"Capson, don't put gold on your face. You should honestly admit that Ula City can't make up three thousand nine-star half-step true gods. If you get a seven-star one to make up the number, you might as well just hire one less person. .” Someone next to him sarcastically said.

"Landseer, since you don't believe it, why don't we make a bet. I bet this kid will definitely be able to get the top three in the intermediate ranks. Do you dare?" Capson seemed very confident in Guding.

"You can gamble, if you don't dare!" the city lord named Lanseer shouted loudly with his belly shy.

"Count me in..." As soon as the two started the game, many other city lords actively participated. (to be continued)
