A faint glow faded from the teleportation platform.
Once the familiar dizziness had passed, Lu Yang stepped down from the platform.
Is this Jinwei City? Lu Yang wondered as he took in the bustling crowds below the platform.
Dozens of people had stepped down from the platform alongside him.
As soon as they had disembarked, dozens more boarded in quick succession. Under the guards' direction, they began teleporting in an orderly fashion.
In Central Province, the number of people using teleportation arrays was clearly several times—or even dozens of times—greater than in Qing Province and the Savage Provinces.
The average cultivation of the martial artists on the platform was also considerably higher than in Qing Province and the Savage Provinces.
With a single glance over the crowds below the platform, Lu Yang sensed the auras of several mid- and high-level martial artists.
Such a scene would have been utterly unthinkable in Qing Province and the Savage Provinces.
In any place, ordinary people with poor aptitudes, or even no ability to cultivate at all, would always make up the vast majority.
But here in Jinwei City, Central Province, martial artists made up a far larger proportion of the population than in Qing Province and the Savage Provinces.
Clearly, the rumors that martial arts flourished here were no exaggeration.
As for why he had teleported to Jinwei City in Central Province rather than directly to Tianjun City, the Imperial Capital, it was because before the Imperial Court accepted martial artists of any rank, they had to have their identities verified by the Inspection and Guard Department before they could pay their respects before the throne.
The Inspection and Guard Department for Central Province had been established in Jinwei City, less than a hundred miles from Tianjun City, the Imperial Capital.
