Bulwark of Light

Chapter 383 Finals
"Brother Gu...you came so early."

Today is the final of the rookie competition, Gong Zi successfully reached the final, and Gu Shen also came to the venue as scheduled.

As soon as you enter the venue, you will be greeted by people you don't know.

Gu Shen responded with a smile.

Little Brother Gu... This title has already formed a polite "common title" in the Deepwater Forum.

Gu Shen clearly felt that during this period of time, Snow Forbidden City's hostility towards him had subsided a lot.

Not long ago, the white-gut dispute that everyone was "looking forward to" did not happen. This incident caused a lot of controversy. The posts on the forum almost swiped the screen. dissatisfaction.

In the end, the witch of the Bai family posted a response with her ID, ending the discussion post.

Bai Lu's response was simple.

Bai Xiu and Gu Shen hit it off immediately, and are now considered friends.

As soon as this post was published, most of the transcendents in the deep water area fell silent... The essential reason why so many challengers came to the gate of Chunyu Guan to fight was because they believed that Gu Shen was "unworthy" of S rank.

But what if the white sleeve thinks it is suitable?
From that day on, many transcendents in the Forbidden Snow City had much less prejudice against Gu Shen.

Putting aside the "prejudice" and re-examining Gu Shen, most people have to feel that this is indeed a good enough genius. He has practiced for a short time and is already strong enough. He has also been favored by Master Qianye and has become a Gu Shen. "Heir of Divination".

Maybe he is not as dazzling as Baixiu yet.

But he... is indeed very low-key.

Except for being provoked to fight back at the beginning, Gu Shen didn't cause any big storms in the Forbidden Snow City. Most of the time, he practiced in his own small courtyard, and then went to Qingzuo to meditate.

Who would really want to have a bad relationship with a "divination heir"?
Gu Shen walked towards the first row of the venue, and many people greeted him along the way, and he deeply felt a truth.

When you become strong, the whole world is your friend.

The finals of the rookie battle is a very grand and grand event. The seats in the first row of the venue have already been taken by the "big shots". Seat qualification is a symbol of power and status.

And Gu Shen received this seat ticket early on.

This was sent to him by Gong Zi's special relationship... and even Mu Nan and Shen Li, who have a good relationship, can only sit in the back seat. seated.

The people sitting in the first row are all top figures with enough "prestige" in the Forbidden Snow City.

Like Mu Nan and Shen Li, they are still too young now.

They are not qualified enough.

But... being young is actually just an "excuse".

After taking his seat, Gu Shen looked around habitually. He saw his acquaintance sitting not far away, the witch from the Bai family, and the "little sleeve" who had traveled far away.

People who truly have status and status, and wield "power and authority", will not be restricted by age.

Just like myself, in fact, I am just a "young man" with inexperienced qualifications.

……

……

"Brother Gu, I didn't expect you to come too."

Gu Shen heard a sound transmission in his mind.

He looked across and saw the white sleeve who greeted him proactively.

He nodded slowly, as if he had seen it before, and also smiled and said: "Gong Zi is my friend, I promised him, and I want to watch him win the championship."

Bai Xiu also nodded slowly, with a smile on his face.

Like Gu Shen, after he came back from the tundra, he devoted himself to self-cultivation and ignored worldly affairs. After the last assassination, Bai Xiu decided to practice in seclusion in the Forbidden Snow City for a period of time... First, to prevent similar things from happening again , The second is to consolidate one's spiritual realm. After all, this is the base camp of the Bai family, and there is no place more suitable for oneself to meditate than Nagano.

It's just that this newcomer battle is different from the past.

Bai Xiu also took a look at the three seventh-level transcendents who stood out in the big competition... Such strength has exceeded his expectations. These three are indeed geniuses among geniuses who can practice to this level.

So on the final day, he was pulled out by Bai Lu.

Three institutes and five masters hope that the "newcomer battle" will be the most popular.

So... Bai Gu, even if they didn't fight in person, they just need to meet at the venue, which can cause a lot of discussion.

"There are too many eyes outside, staring at me, every move will be magnified..."

Bai Xiu whispered through the voice transmission: "Brother Gu, in order to avoid trouble, I will quietly watch the battle from now on."

"That's right." Gu Shen agreed with a smile.

He and Baixiu "communicate less and less", and have never met or spoken a few times, but every time they meet, they feel very relaxed in their hearts.

Maybe it is knowing that the other party is the same person as himself.

Not to fight, but to fight.

Do not compete with outsiders, but compete with yourself.

What is indisputable is who is strong and who is weak, who is fast and who is slow.

What is fighting is the day and night, the sun and the moon!
Such a person is both an opponent and a friend.

……

……

When Bai Xiu and Gu Shen entered the venue, they were watched by many people.

Although the discussion thread in the deep water area has been terminated.

But many people are still looking forward to what will happen between these two people... Whether it is a conflict or a conflict, even if there is neither of these, at least a few words of conversation.

But nothing.

The two of them just separated each other from the venue, nodded slowly, indicating that they had seen each other.

The melon-eaters who paid close attention to the dynamics of the two were disappointed when they saw this scene.

After all, the relationship between "Bai Gu" is a highlight besides the final.

"Gu Shen!"

Shen Li came a little later, he sat in the back seat, and said hello through sound transmission with spiritual power, Gu Shen turned around and saw the little iron man sitting in the middle back, and nodded with a smile.

Shen Li sat next to a group of brothers from the school.

His master, Li Yu, the fourth judge, sat in the first row, very close to Mr. Zhang Shan, the chief judge.

"I'm a little worried... Gong Zi."

"Worry?"

Gu Shen was slightly taken aback.

When he heard the news that Gong Zi had advanced to the finals, he left Qingzuka at the appointed time and hurried to the venue. He didn't pay attention to the situation of the rookie match these few days.

Did something special happen?

"In yesterday's semi-finals, the seven-level transcendent 'Chu Chen' from the command post met Lian Zhou—"

Shen Li's rumors were only half spoken before they stopped abruptly.

A silent coercion enveloped it.

"Shhhh-"

Many people in the venue got up to give way to the "that person" who was walking in the corridor. In fact, the corridor was wide enough, and the greater significance of getting up was to show their respect.

Mr. Gu Qilin, who was wearing a suit jacket, entered the arena slowly with a blank expression on his face.

Beside him, followed by the rising star of the command post, [Iron Hand] Luo Yu.

Fatty Luo no longer looked like he was laughing in the villa area, but instead had a solemn face, and he put on the standard robe of the command post, his aura seemed to be solidified... Where the two passed, members of the third office stood up on their own initiative .

"Chu Chen lost, Lian Zhou's methods are extremely cruel..."

Seeing the gloomy commander, Shen Li shuddered, quickly stood up and respected him, and at the same time lowered his voice and said the last sentence: "I suggest you watch the video of that confrontation..."

Gu Qilin walked forward all the way.

Finally, he came to Gu Shen's side and sat down.

Surrounded by silence.

It can be seen that the old man is in a very bad mood.

Chu Ling immediately called up the video of Chu Chen's confrontation with Lian Zhou... The duel between the two seventh-level transcendents should be very exciting, but the whole duel was short-lived and terrifying.

"All the opponents Lianzhou encountered after the first day... all surrendered."

Chu Ling said: "But Chu Chen didn't."

Lian Zhou's previous opponents were all second-stage transcendents... These people, as long as they have seen his brutal methods, how can they have the idea of ​​"fighting again"?

So far, all the superhumans who have fought with Lian Zhou have burst into bleeding bodies and suffered serious injuries!

Surrendering directly is the wisest choice.

But for Chu Chen, it's different. Like Lian Zhou, he is a superhuman with seven levels of strength in the third stage. He also has a teacher behind him, a treasure, and means. Even if he loses, he must lose with dignity.

How could it be possible to surrender without a fight?

So there was the following "tragedy battle"...

At the beginning of the competition, Lian Zhou was different from the other opponents in the duel. He didn't leave any time for the opponent to react, and directly resorted to the previous method with all his strength. The air in the ring was broken, and Chu Chen's attack methods, including the sealed items, had no time to display. The body was "cut into pieces", and the blood splashed——

This scene is extremely bloody!
Previously, the trauma suffered by those extraordinary people was only "a dozen cuts".

As for Chu Chen, he encountered "hundreds of cuts" in an instant!
The battle had just begun, but it was already over... This talented young genius is still receiving emergency treatment, and his life is not out of danger yet.

After watching the video, Gu Shen frowned.

He is now very sure that Lian Zhou's favorite method is a sealed item, because Lian Zhou's previous opponent was too weak, and the casting speed was too fast, and it ended in an instant, so he didn't see it clearly.

This time the "blazing fire" was clearly seen.

That sealed item... seems to be a "scissors"?
With the strength of the seventh floor, this level of lethality can be erupted. The origin of this "sealed object" may not be simple.

However, the doubts in his heart deepened.

Is it necessary?

How cruel is this mere rookie battle?
With Lian Zhou's strength...if he can control the "scissors" perfectly, why should he be so ruthless and just beat his opponent just right.

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.

Not far from the opposite venue, Zhu Wang entered from another entrance.

The "Grand Adjudicator" was followed by his favorite student Han Dang. He entered the venue and took his seat. He didn't look at anyone during the whole process, but just closed his eyes and meditated, as if he didn't care about the outcome of the game, just going through a cutscene.

But Han Dang immediately looked at Gu Shen expressionlessly.

The two looked at each other across the air.

it is more than words.

Mr. Gu sat beside Gu Shen, and slowly said: "Yesterday's boy, although he is not my student...but he is a member of the command post after all, it is really infuriating to see his own person being cut into this shape. things."

"This game shouldn't be so tragic."

Gu Shen thought for a while and said, "You must have seen the video... That sealed item is not simple."

"Pseudo-S-rank sealed item, [paper scissors]."

Gu Qilin looked at Zhu Wang, who was pretending to be calm with his eyes closed, sneered, and said slowly: "One of the trump cards of a certain temporary grand adjudicator is really a dog who has lived his age, in order to compete for the rookie championship. , You don’t even need to face. This kind of sealed item has huge killing power and consumes a lot, if you can’t kill the opponent... your mental power will be exhausted."

【Paper cut】?
False S-rank sealed item?

No wonder the killing power is so terrifying... This should be the second time that Gu Shen has seen such a high-rated Sealed Artifact. The last time he saw a Sealed Artifact with a rating beyond A-level, it should have been during the examination of the review team. 】.

"That's why Lian Zhou didn't stop...he can't control [Paper Cutting] at all, and it's impossible for him to click to the end." Gu Shen secretly understood the reason, but he was still a little puzzled: "Since the consumption is so huge, the face For low-level transcendents, why use fake S-rank sealed items?"

This is really weird.

Kill a chicken with a bull's knife.

In the competition on the first day, Lian Zhou used the [paper scissors] weapon against the superhumans on the third floor of the deep water area!
If you just think of the "deterrence" effect, the crushing of absolute strength is enough.

Why choose the more expensive [paper scissors]?
"Lin."

A thick voice sounded from behind.

An old man in a windbreaker with a cane slowly came to Gu Qilin's side. The old man was wearing a deerstalker hat and sunglasses, and was smoking a pipe. He looked like a "detective" spending the winter in the deep mountains and old forests.

Gu Qilin stood up with a smile to show respect, and at the same time introduced to Gu Shen: "This is my old friend... the chairman of the Dongzhou Federal Security Committee, Zhou Wei."

Chairman of the Dongzhou Federal Security Council?
This is the "Extraordinary Monitoring Organization" established by the Supreme Council, which is independent from the three and five families in Nagano, and enjoys the central privilege of the Five Continent Federation.

The Safety Committee is responsible for the investigation of "out of control" and the supervision of the internal discipline and order of the "Extraordinary Organization". It is not an exaggeration to say that the operation of the entire Eastern Continent Federation is inseparable from the supervision of the Safety Committee.

Seeing this old man, Gu Shen was in awe.

"Mr. Zhou."

He immediately got up with the old man and took the initiative to help President Zhou Wei to sit down.

"well……"

Mr. Zhou sat down with a smile, looked at Gu Shen, and praised in a soft voice: "As expected of an S-rank...well deserved..."

The mental strength of this Mr. Zhou is extremely amazing!

The moment Gu Shen stepped forward to support him, Gu Shen felt a vast spiritual force brushing past him.

Although this mental power is powerful, it is harmless.

With just one glance, Gu Shen had the illusion that he was "seen through".

Wilderness of Seasons... seems to be seen.

However, the news that he successfully practiced the breath of spring has already spread in Nagano City. If the spiritual power has not been probed deeply to see the real spiritual world, then this is not a secret.

"The control inside and outside the venue took me a lot of thought." After Zhou Wei took his seat, he smiled softly and said, "You also know that the committee has always been short-handed... Those who came to the venue today probably took time out of the Nagano branch. half."

This sentence did not shy away from Gu Shen.

Gu Shen was startled when he heard the words.

He looked at the old man with some astonishment.

The safety committee is fully mobilized.

Is this...a real-name report?
"Don't look at me like that, I'm just looking for an old friend to watch the game." Gu Qilin put his arm around Zhou Wei's shoulders, and said lightly: "After all, he is the head of the safety committee, so bring some younger brothers to watch the game ...is that reasonable?"

Gu Shen nodded, with a complicated expression on his face.

Zhou Wei smiled and said: "According to the committee's investigation, Lian Zhou's strength has indeed entered the country too fast, which is unreasonable... It took him three years to be promoted from the fifth floor of the deep water area to the sixth floor, and the sixth floor It only took a short year for the promotion from the first floor to the seventh floor. As far as I know, the breakthrough time from the sixth floor to the seventh floor is so fast, and only one person has appeared in the Snow Forbidden City in the past ten years."

Mr. Zhou smiled and looked at the white-clothed boy opposite the venue.

Only one.

white sleeves!

"It's just that it took only eight months for Bai Xiu to be promoted from the fifth floor to the sixth floor, four times faster than him." Zhou Wei said with a smile: "It's not that the safety committee has never suspected him...but that little guy He is a real monstrous character, extremely stable in spirit and extremely powerful in ability."

"Actually, it doesn't matter how fast you get promoted. It's not uncommon for a stupid bird to fly first, and once you get the hang of it."

Gu Qilin said slowly: "Lian Zhou can be a genius, and he can also win the championship...but the premise is that he should really be the kind of genius who can win the championship."

Soon.

Everyone sat down.

The venue quickly became silent, and the final of the rookie battle officially began at this moment.

At both ends of the venue, two figures slowly walked out.

Lian Zhou, Gong Zi.

The biggest focus of this year's rookie battle is the battle between the three seven-level transcendents... However, after the battle in which Lian Zhou "cut" Chu Chen ended, the prediction point of view of the final battle has undergone an overwhelming change .

That battle was too tragic.

Also a seventh-level transcendent, Chu Chen was cut so that he could not fight back... He is still receiving treatment, and he doesn't know if he can be rescued from the gate of hell.

Many people appealed to the race team to prohibit Lian Zhou from using such atrocious Sealed Artifacts.

These calls became louder and louder, and in just one day they had already formed a protest.

However, the rules of the rookie battle have never changed.

The use of sealed items has always been a decisive part of the victory, and the competition did not change the competition system because of protests.

As a result, some people also emerged, and they suggested that Gong Zi give up the duel.

Nowadays, most of the posts in the deep water area forum are not optimistic about "Gong Zi", even if this is the young master of the Gong family, with a strong background and experience in the semi-finals, there is a high probability that he will bring a very powerful sealed item .

But because the fate of the previous seventh-level transcendent was too tragic... People's subconscious impressions are really difficult to change.

Chu Chen also has a powerful Sealed Artifact!
It's just that before it could be used, the whole person was cut off.

"what……"

A series of strange voices resounded from all over the spectator seats when Gong Zi appeared on the stage.

When they saw the young master of the Gong family, the eyes of many people in the venue changed.

Even Lian Zhou's eyes became strange.

He looked at the opponent in front of him, who was wearing an iron coat that looked very rough but was tightly wrapped, and bowed slowly to himself.

Is this... is his final opponent?
