Chapter 1007: Seventh Day of the Seventh Month (1)
The seventh day of the seventh month had finally arrived. This also meant that the power structure in the Forsaken Land would be changed again; it was unknown who would win.
Twilight City was the organizer for the tournament. The venue of the tournament was selected to be at the center of the city, and the entire venue could accommodate more than a thousand people. Other than the partic.i.p.ants from their respective cities, a large number of citizens had also entered the venue.
Early in the morning, the venue was packed to the brim.
As the City Lord of Twilight City and as the winner of the previous tournament, Duan Hen led his elites and sat on the west side of the venue.
The entire venue was divided into four sections according to the four cardinal directions. The teams from the corresponding areas would be brought there by their guides.
Among the four teams, there were spectators.
The teams from Fantasy Devil City, Blizzard City and Sun Never Sets had also arrived one after another. All of them sat in their respective seats as they waited for the tournament to start.
Shen Yanxiao was surrounded by the crowd as she sat in the center of the stadium. Coincidentally, the one who sat opposite her was Elder Wen who had been enraged by her yesterday.
When Elder Wen saw Shen Yanxiao, he pulled a long face. He was so angry that he was about to blow his beard and glare at her. If looks could kill, Shen Yanxiao would have been executed by Elder Wen’s glare.
At the glare, Shen Yanxiao was neither anxious nor angry. She just smiled gently and politely.
The team from Blizzard City sat on the northern side of the venue while Geng Di and the rest sat on the southern side. If they were to be divided according to the alliances made, then the southwest would be the alliance between Elder Wen and Geng Di, while the northeast would be the alliance between Shen Yanxiao and Long Fei.
All the squads had gathered, and the surrounding area was crowded with spectators.
Before the match even started, the spectators had already started to gamble in private.
Tang Nazhi’s personality of wanting to join in on the fun did not change in the slightest. He eagerly went to inquire about it before he sat down.
“Guess which side has the highest chance of winning?” Tang Nazhi mysteriously asked.
“Teacher of course!” Nangong Mengmeng answered without the slightest hesitation.
Tang Nazhi rolled his eyes. Could she be more biased?
“Blizzard City has the highest chance of winning?” Qi Xia furrowed his brow and asked.
Tang Nazhi was stunned. “How did you know?”
Qi Xia pointed to his head.
Tang Nazhi felt insulted.
“Don’t you find it strange? The people who placed their bets here are all locals of Twilight City. In the end, they did not place their stakes on their City Lord but on Long Fei instead. This is very strange.” When Tang Nazhi knew of this result, he expressed his doubts.
“Twilight City won the previous tournament by a fluke and due to Long Fei being absent. This time, Long Fei is personally leading the team and the partic.i.p.ants are his own elites. Naturally, they cannot be compared to the past. Geng Di is not a threat at all. Even though Duan Hen had won in the previous tournament, he is still too young to convince the public. Moreover, Twilight City is not as united as it seems on the surface. There is nothing wrong with this conclusion.” Qi Xia shrugged his shoulders and gave a brief a.n.a.lysis with his superior brain.
“Well, Senior Uncle, why don’t you mention Teacher? Teacher is not inferior to Long Fei in the slightest,” Nangong Mengmeng said.
Qi Xia shot a glance at the furious Nangong Mengmeng and smiled.
What else could the reason be? Just based on what Shen Yanxiao and he did yesterday night, the citizens of the city probably hated them to death. Therefore, they would definitely not bet on Sun Never Sets.
