There are many monks in the participating team. It is the first time for them to come to the Imperial City. They are curious and longing for this city.
I simply cannot practice meditation quietly, but I want to visit the outside world and see the grand scenery and culture of the imperial city.
There are also some monks who want to go to some special places to satisfy their expectations and wishes.
For example, five of the top schools of the Star Demon Clan are located in the Imperial City, which is a holy place for practice and learning that many monks yearn for.
There are countless elites within the academy, offering various disciplines and researching and digesting various top technologies.
Many highly valuable technologies plundered from other worlds will be cracked and transformed in these institutions.
In addition to various high-end schools, the Imperial City also has various shops selling high-end practical items and luxury goods.
No matter how much money you have, you can spend it in the Imperial City Business District.
It is also a fashion capital with countless handsome men and beautiful women, many of whom come from meritorious families.
If you are lucky enough and marry a descendant of such a family, you can save decades of struggle.
Of course, such things are generally rare, and the Star Demon tribe also pays attention to being well-matched.
But if you have excellent talent and excellent performance, even if you come from an ordinary family, there will still be meritorious families who actively seek marriage.
For the Star Demon Clan monks, only three things are most important, namely cultivation, raising offspring, and obtaining meritorious rewards.
Without any one of them, nothing can be considered complete.
Within the Star Demon Clan, polygamy or polyandry is allowed to exist.
If this trip to the imperial city can lead to a happy marriage, it will be considered a worthwhile trip.
As for the difficulty of winning the award, it is simply terrifyingly high, and most monks just make up the numbers.
This whole family competition is a stage for geniuses.
Some cultivators will rise up and become amazing beings, while the vast majority of cultivators are destined to become the stars in the sky.
The leader of the group was very clear about the monks' thoughts and proactively announced that they could go out for fun.
But the free time is only three days, and then you have to prepare to participate in the competition.
A group of monks who got the holiday immediately put on their most gorgeous clothes, with flags fluttering in the wind on their high tails.
There are also coquettish guys who deliberately decorate the flags with colorful lights and make bursts of music.
The purpose of doing this is nothing more than to show off oneself and gain higher attention.
It didn't take long for the participating monks to leave in groups and head straight to various areas of the imperial city.
At the invitation of his companions, Tang Zhen put on a white rune robe and followed him to the Imperial City Commercial District.
Every inch of land in the Imperial City Business District is at a premium, and this description is no exaggeration. If you look closely, you will find that many sculptures and buildings on the roadside are made of various precious metals.
The rents for shops are so high that many Star Monster monks who tried to do business here were too frightened to ask any more questions.
High store rents are attached to the goods, and are ultimately borne by consumers.
But even so, it does not affect sales performance, because the products in the Imperial City Commercial District are indeed of top quality.
In other places in this world, even if you have money, you can't buy it. You have to come to the Imperial City Business District.
Things are rare and valuable, and if you master the channels, you can price it with confidence, and outsiders have nothing to do about it.
After arriving in the business district, the monks were quickly dazzled by what they saw, and kept lamenting the prosperity and luxury of the imperial city.
Because of the competition, many monks gathered in the imperial city and were now wandering around the business district in groups.
These groups of people have long attracted the attention of merchants, and they are constantly promoting and soliciting.
The monks participating in the competition must be true elites, and generally have rich family backgrounds and good backgrounds.
For merchants, these are high-quality customers with excellent purchasing power.
Even if the price is high, they have a high chance of buying something they like.
There are also some businesses that use monks to enhance their competitive mentality and organize some activities to attract the monks' attention.
The largest store in the business district is currently holding a competition, and any monk can sign up to participate.
On the spacious stage, there was a huge crystal ball suspended, surrounded by a group of monks participating in the competition.
Most of the monks came to participate in the competition, which can be judged from the flags behind them.
There are also some practitioners who are not participants, but still take the stage to participate in the competition.
Tang Zhen and others stopped, stood aside and watched, and quickly understood the content of the competition.
Inside the huge crystal ball is a three-dimensional maze with hundreds of entrances.
What the monk has to do is to control the spiritual power and find an entrance to enter it.
Whoever can break out of the three-dimensional maze in the shortest time and light up the light ball wins.
During the competition, not only do you have to find a way out in the complicated environment, but you also have to compete with the monks who meet you on a narrow road.
Every time there is a collision, only the winner can continue the competition, and the halo under the loser's feet will go out.
In order to allow the many spectators around to see the competition scene more intuitively, the mall used some methods.
The audience can see aerial projections, and their mental powers will be personified, traveling through a giant maze.
When competitors meet, the scene of fighting is even more exciting, and the whole battle process is hearty.
There are some masters backstage in the mall who know how to commentate on live music and edit shots to make the broadcast more exciting and exciting.
The audience around the ring included monks and mortals, all attracted by the shopping mall activities.
Some were standing on the roadside at street corners, and some were standing on high-rise building platforms. The number must be at least 100,000.
For the contestants, this is also a good opportunity to make themselves famous.
The prerequisite for becoming famous is to pass the level. After all, the audience will only remember the winners and have little interest in the losers.
The competition has already begun, with monks constantly failing and being eliminated, and more monks joining in.
Winning is not an easy task, and you must face multiple tests.
Complex maze environment, continuous mental consumption, and other competitors to block you.
The monks who failed were all upset, but they had to admit that the challenge was extremely difficult.
A cunning and treacherous businessman will not engage in loss-making business, so how can he easily let the monks get rewards?
Tang Zhen was watching intently when he suddenly heard the sound of a quarrel not far from him.
When I turned around, I realized that it was a monk from the special training camp, arguing with another group of monks.
The group of monks wore uniforms, a kind of golden rune robes, with strange hats on their heads.
He had a proud posture and a disdainful expression on his face.
You can tell where these people come from by looking at their clothes and the flags flying on their tails.
Coming from the Imperial City Academy, a top monastic academy, the students are all the pride of heaven.
Although they are both practitioners, the work direction of the academy is completely different from that of military monks.
One is a civil servant, the other is a military official, and their concepts and styles of conduct are very different.
Even if they cooperate with each other, conflicts often occur. From the top to the monks below, they all dislike each other.
The reason for the quarrel between the two parties is also very simple, and it can even be said that it is not worth mentioning.
When they can quarrel, the main reason is that they can't stand each other, and everyone wants to overpower the other.
After a few arguments, the other party proposed to compete in the ring to see who could win the final victory.
This is the fairest way. If anyone fails the challenge, he will shut up immediately.
Admit defeat, apologize, make amends, and things settle down.
This is the simplest way to deal with it, and it is recognized by both parties. If someone cannot afford to lose, or does something despicable, the only one who will be unlucky in the end is himself.
But in the blink of an eye, monks from both sides appeared on the stage and competed using the props in the mall.
Tang Zhen was just a bystander. He didn't even say a word, but he was dragged in together.
He originally wanted to refuse, but the generous bet made him decide to give it a try.
