The next day, when the golden rooster crowed and the sun had not fully risen, Mr. Tang got up early and stood outside the gate.
This is already the seventh day that Mr. Tang has been like this.
The weather is already in late autumn, approaching early winter. Even Mr. Tang, who was already at the ninth level of the Xuan Rank, was still wearing a cotton robe at this time.
Time passed by little by little, and Mr. Tang's hair and eyebrows were covered with dew. He was not in the mood to wipe it off, but his expression became more and more anxious.
Today is the day when Yuncheng selects places to participate in the Eastern Region Competition, and his grandson has not come back yet.
It wasn't that he was worried about Tang Yan missing the game, but that according to the original agreement, it was time for that kid to come back. It's been two months and there's not even a single message. Was there an accident?
For a moment, Mr. Tang regretted that he should not have agreed to Tang Yan's request so hastily.
At this time, Uncle Mo walked out of the courtyard and said softly: "Sir, the young master is already at the seventh level of the Yellow Rank. The second-level spiritual beasts are not a great threat to the young master. Even if he cannot be defeated, he can still escape. Besides, the young master is He also said that his master will protect him secretly, and the young master will definitely come back."
"Hey, it's been two months!" In front of Mo Bo, his old partner, Mr. Tang did not hide his worries.
"Maybe the young master didn't remember the time clearly. If the young master doesn't come back tomorrow, we will dispatch all our elite forces to Cangyun Mountain to find the young master." Mo Bo suggested from the side.
"That's the only way!" Mr. Tang nodded, glanced at the sky, and ordered: "The selection of quotas for the Eastern Region Competition will begin soon. Although Tang Yan has not arrived, we must attend this grand event and prepare for it. Let’s go and see it together.”
The two old men took some of the entourage of the Tang family and drove towards Yuntai in the middle of Yuncheng in a carriage.
Yuntai, located in the center of Yuncheng, is an arena of about 2,000 square meters. The arena is made of broken iron rock, which is extremely strong and can withstand a full blow from a heaven-level expert.
It is rarely turned on on weekdays, and even for the Mid-Autumn Festival, the gimbal is not used.
This arena will only be opened unless there is something particularly important or something related to the glory of Cloud City.
At this moment, the center of Yuncheng is extremely lively again. Most people in Yuncheng temporarily abandoned their work and gathered here.
There are only three places competing for the competition this time. Everyone in Yuncheng also expected that Liu Zhi of the Liu family would definitely get one of the quotas this time, and Lin Dongxue, the daughter of the city lord, would get one.
The biggest attraction this time is that the children of various major families compete for the only remaining spot.
Qin He from the Qin family, Wu Feiming from the Wu family, and Tang Yan from the Tang family are all popular candidates in Yuncheng.
This was also the first time that Tang Yan was compared with heroes like Qin He and Wu Feiming on a formal occasion.
After all, Tang Yan's last duel with Liu Zhi really shocked everyone. The strength of a sixth-grade Huang rank can compete with those of a ninth-rank Huang rank. Such courage and strength are not something ordinary people can achieve.
Of course, there are some people who are also within the expectations of people in Yuncheng, such as Qian Rulong from the Qian family, Zhao Chen from the Zhao family, and Li Xingfeng from the Li family. I heard that the strength of these people has also reached the sixth level of the Huang rank. .
When Mr. Tang arrived, people from the other four major families were already there.
As one of the four major families in Yuncheng, the Tang family's status at the moment is also very delicate. The Tang family, which was originally ranked at the bottom of the four major families, is now listed as the only family that can compete with the Liu family.
Seeing people from the Tang family coming, the onlookers in front immediately made way for a passage.
Immediately, everyone's faces showed doubts. Why didn't Tang Yan, whom everyone was equally optimistic about, show up?
And this discovery immediately spread among the crowd, and everyone's eyes kept falling on the Tang family's seats, pointing from time to time.
Perhaps it was because everyone had deep-rooted impressions of Tang Yan as a playboy. Although Tang Yan was extremely amazing at being able to compete with Liu Zhi at that time, what most people were discussing at this time was that Tang Yan did not dare to participate in the battle.
There are also some rumors that Tang Yan's strength is not as strong as the sixth level of the Yellow Rank. Last time, he only used some magic weapons to forcibly improve his strength. Now that the magic weapons are used up, he will not be able to participate in the war.
There are also some rumors saying that Tang Yan has not shown up for two months because he suffered serious hidden injuries in the last duel with Liu Zhi and is now in dire straits.
The three of them became tigers. Not even a quarter of an hour after the Tang family arrived, these seemingly bizarre rumors were quietly spreading among the crowd, and some people actually believed them.
Seeing that the people were almost here, City Lord Lin Xiao walked onto the platform.
After scanning around, he paused for a moment at the Tang family's location, feeling a little strange in his heart. Where did this Tang Yan go? The spies in the mansion have indeed not heard from Tang Yan for two months.
This kid seemed to have disappeared from the world. Could it be that he had become a braid as the rumors turned out to be?
But thinking about his previous interactions with Tang Yan, Lin Xiao felt extremely ridiculous. Although Tang Yan looks extremely young, he is very mature and sees things very clearly. How could such a monster-like person die so easily?
Tang Yan didn't come, and Lin Xiao couldn't wait for him. He gathered his thoughts, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "In one month, there will be the Eastern Territory Competition. This is a competition between the cities in the Eastern Territory for the younger generation. A review is more related to the honor of our Cloud City!"
"We in Yuncheng will have three places to participate in the war. It is related to the honor of Yuncheng. We must select the best talents in Yuncheng! The final selected heroes will represent Yuncheng in the battle!
If you achieve outstanding results in the Eastern Region Competition, you will not only become famous in the Eastern Region, but also receive generous rewards, and Cloud City will also be honored because of you! "
Lin Xiao's highly contagious words made the blood of some young people present begin to boil.
Represent Yuncheng and fight for glory! Isn't this exactly what young people often fantasize about?
"The scope of this selection is not limited to high or low status, rich or poor, as long as you are from our Cloud City, and as long as you have confidence in your own strength, you can sign up!"
After Lin Xiao said this, many young people's eyes lit up. They thought they had no chance to participate in the war, but they did not expect that the scope of selection would be so wide.
Compared to the hustle and bustle here in Yuntai, the Tang family is much more relaxed.
"Ah!" When Tang Yan came out after refining the elixir, took a shower, changed clothes, and was about to go find his grandfather, he heard a scream.
This penetrating soprano really shocked Tang Yan, and he glared at Xiao Cui dissatisfiedly: "It's broad daylight, what the hell are you calling!"
"Master! Are you really back?" Xiaocui's eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost.
After hearing Xiaocui's words, Tang Yan said angrily: "We haven't seen each other for only two months, and you don't even recognize me anymore?"
