It was another early morning, the air was excellent, and the weather was also excellent.

Since the morning light opened a narrow crack in the blue sky, the whole Guang'an City instantly came alive.

It seems like every day is the same, but today is very different.

Usually at this time, most of the vendors selling breakfast items got up early and started lighting fires.

But today, the sky was slightly bright, but there were far more people in the market than usual. After a while, a long line of carts formed in the East Market.

Countless vendors, pushing all kinds of goods, marched crazily towards Dongcheng.

At this moment, Dongcheng has started cooking even earlier, with all shops opening one hour earlier than usual.

As for the market in Dongcheng, it was already bustling before the morning light penetrated. By now, the market, which could accommodate ten horses walking parallel, was already blocked with water.

The root cause of all these changes is none other than the fact that at noon today, at Ascending Dragon Platform, the most towering building in the East City, an unprecedented battle is about to begin.

The mysterious Yi Captou fights against Guang'an, one of the ten Eldest Young Master, and Black Dragon Hall's young master Wan Tengyun.

This battle, just as a gimmick, is ten times more powerful than the previous battle between Xu Yi and Gao Pan.

Without him, Xu Yi has become Guang'an's celebrity since he defeated Gao Pan.

And Wan Tengyun was known as Guang'an ten Eldest Young Master three years ago, making him a celebrity among celebrities.

A battle between two celebrities, Body Tempering Peak, a conversation between the strongest among the strongest.

No matter from which angle you look at it, this battle has attracted much attention.

In fact, during these seven days, the entire public opinion of Guang'an has always been centered on this battle and fermented desperately.

To this day, the atmosphere has been heightened to the extreme.

Especially the Ascending Dragon Platform, which has been expanded several times and can now accommodate hundreds of thousands of people watching the battle at the same time.

Even in the previous life on earth, the most majestic stadium could only accommodate nearly 100,000 spectators at the same time.

But with the wisdom of hundreds of thousands of skilled craftsmen of all kinds, it is not a legend that people are watching the battle at the same time.

And Ascending Dragon Platform, which can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, also changed the previous free rules this time. The greedy Guang'an Prefecture Governor actually collected the tickets, ten tickets and one gold coin.

Although the price is low, it cannot support such a huge base. In just one battle, Guang'an Prefecture Governor earned nearly 100,000 gold.

Not only Guang'an Prefecture profited from it, but those who bought the tickets first started selling them a second time. The ticket prices doubled again and again, and countless libertines made a fortune.

There is still an hour before noon, and Baizhang Ascending Dragon Platform is already sitting there.

Hundreds of thousands of people braved the scorching sun and dressed in costumes, as if preparing for some grand festival.

The best stand on the west side is set up into private rooms, exclusively for the use of big shots.

I don't know whether it was intentional or a coincidence, but there was still half a stick of incense before the decisive battle. Gao Junmo led his three subordinates White-uniformed Captain, and Black Dragon Hall Master Wan Youlong and his party gathered together in the corridor of Jiazitou private room.

"Elder Shui! Why are you here?"

Gao Junmo asked in surprise.

The person in the center surrounded by Wan Youlong and others is none other than the Elder Shui who took out a Divine Essence Pill in exchange for the iron essence at the Linglong Pavilion auction.

Elder Shui smiled and said, "Director Gao, what a coincidence, you came to watch the decisive battle. Oh, I remembered, the boy named Yi belongs to you Patrol Division. As the director, you naturally have to support me."

In the previous auction, in order to compete for Dragon Crocodile Hide, Gao Junmo sold Elder Shui to save face, and retreated on their own, which was regarded as a good relationship.

Gao Junmo said, "That's right! It's rare for me, Patrol Division, to find a hero, so Gao will naturally come to watch the battle. I wonder if Elder Shui is here to watch the battle, or to cheer for someone?"

Wan Youlong said proudly, "Director Gao you don't know, Quanzi Tengyun has worshiped Elder Shui as his godfather, Elder Shui is here, naturally watching Teng Yun kill everyone. Oh, by the way, remember Director Gao said hello to Wan, saying that there will be three games, Director Gao is too polite, I'm afraid there won't be a third game."

Ma Wensheng used a trick to dispatch Fire Barbarians to kidnap Uncle Mu and Qiu Wa in order to blackmail Xu Yi.

Although it is true that Black Dragon Hall is a powerful force, it is far from enough to challenge Guang'an City. After all, although it is Fire Barbarians who is dispatched, it is obvious who has the desire to attack Xu Yi at this critical moment.

Black Dragon Hall absolutely cannot bear the gushing talk and the pressure that comes with it Patrol Division.

Therefore, Ma Wensheng made another plan and asked Wan Youlong to find Aristocratic Clan, a wealthy family in the city, to be affiliated with him. Black Dragon Hall has been working alone for so many years, and his development has reached a bottleneck. If there is no big power behind him, this will be the end of his development.

Wan Youlong thought for a moment and then agreed. The last time one hundred thousand gold was swallowed up by a gambling stall, it shocked him greatly. Just imagine, if there was the Shui family as a backer, the gambling stall would not dare to be so arrogant.

Black Dragon Hall is quite powerful in the underground world of Guang'an. He has 30,000 gang members, which is more effective force than ordinary Aristocratic Clan can use.

Wan Youlong selected the Shui family, and Fang sent someone to communicate with him, and got an enthusiastic response from the other party. Soon, Wan Youlong's precious son became Elder Shui's godson.

With the Shui family to rely on, Wan Youlong naturally straightened up. Earlier, Gao Junmo sent someone to pass a message, only giving Black Dragon Hall three opportunities to challenge Xu Yi. Wan Mou swallowed his anger and obeyed sternly.

Now, as soon as Wan Youlong got close to the Shangshui family, Wan Youlong's momentum suddenly became more powerful. Gao Junmo was no longer in his eyes, and he had a strong tendency to swallow him up.

"Hall Master Wan Gui Geng?" Gao Junmo suddenly asked.

Wan Youlong blurted out, "Wan is fifty-three, Director Gao is not expecting Wan to die of old age, haha, but it's a pity that Gao is in his prime, so he still has to worry about it."

I was suppressed hard by Gao Junmo before, but now I have the opportunity. Wan Youlong is stinging every word and hiding needles in every sentence, and is not willing to let it go.

"Do you know Elder Shui Gui Geng?" Gao Junmo said with a smile.

Wan Youlong was confused by Gao Junmo's series of incomprehensible questions. He wanted not to answer, but Elder Shui was nearby. Not answering seemed disrespectful. He had to bite his cheek and be cautious and said, "I really don't know. Do you know?"

"Nine out of forty!" Gao Junmo said, "Elder Shui is Mr. Ling's godfather. According to seniority, he is your godfather to Hall Master Wan. Tsk tsk, a fifty-three-year-old son and a forty-nine-year-old father are a strange thing through the ages, haha..."

"Haha..."

The three White-uniformed Captain who came with Gao Junmo also laughed loudly. The one named Wan just now dared to choke Gao Junmo. These three people were secretly holding back their anger. Now that they had the opportunity to show their eyes to Gao Junmo, everyone laughed wildly.

Wan Youlong's face was so full that it sometimes turned blue and sometimes flushed, and a pair of bull's eyes were about to protrude from the sockets, but it was difficult to say a word, because any rebuttal might reveal disrespect for Elder Shui.

Just being scolded, and being scolded in public without being able to open your mouth at all, this kind of psychological humiliation is going to drive Wan Youlong crazy.

Even the Black Dragon Hall deputy hall masters and elders who came with Wan Youlong to praise Elder Shui's bad feet felt burning in their faces. Some even said, "Is it really right to seek refuge in the Shui family? In the past, they were happy with each other and were proud of the world, but now they are not even allowed to laugh and scold freely. They are worse than dogs!"
