Chapter 441: Earth Bound Formation
The day of the competition has arrived. The doors of the Tang Empire's Forbidden City were wide open. Countless warriors, some in armor, some in light clothing, walked past the ranks of elite guards, each of whom had reached the peak of impeccable rank.
According to legend, before becoming the Empress, Wu Di led the descendants of these guards through countless bloodbaths and won hundreds of thousands of fights with them..
Even the greatest geniuses did not raise their heads, feeling their gaze on them. For some reason, Lin Yi himself felt a lot of tension. Perhaps not even because of their strength, but because here the impeccable experts legendary in the Golden Gate served simply as guards.
The Tang Empire was truly impressive. They deserved to be called the greatest Kyushu Empire.
Empress Wu herself did not appear for the competition, nor did Huang Yiting, but the court eunuch announced the beginning and rules.
In the first round, more than ten thousand people fought among themselves until the ten strongest were chosen. In the second, the strongest of the ten had to defeat Huang Yiting herself, and if it didn’t work out, then the competition would be repeated in a year.
Only the victorious Huang Yiting had the right to become the successor of the Tang Empire along with it. No one objected to this rule - after all, she was chosen by Empress Wu herself, so there was no doubt about her strength. However, first they had to climb to the hundredth floor of the pagoda.
Several people looked up at the top of the six hundred meter tall white jade tower. For an impeccable expert, such a distance was a matter of seconds.
The eunuch grinned and raised his hand. At the same moment, everyone suddenly felt as if they were being pressed to the ground by a mountain. Some immediately fell to the ground.
