303 Snowfall City (1/2)
”S-Sect Master… we are attracting quite the attention… What if the Million Snakes Sect notices us?”
One of the sect elders expressed her worries.
Under normal circumstances, they would be proud of this situation, but alas, they did not want to attract any unwanted attention today — at least not until they enter Snowfall City.
However, such a wish may be somewhat impossible, especially when their beauty stuck out like a sore thumb. They were akin to a garden filled with beautiful flowers in the middle of a boring desert.
”I have thought about wearing masks, but that would only make us seem suspicious.” Liu Lanzhi shook her head. ”But even if we attract some attention now, it shouldn't matter because the Million Snakes Sect should have entered Snowfall City by now.”
”A renowned place such as them will surely be pardoned from waiting in line unlike the rest of us.”
”That sounds reasonable…”
The sect elders no longer worried about the Million Snakes Sect and continued to follow Liu Lanzhi, slowly approaching Snowfall City.
Sometime later, a massive crowd of people came into view, causing the disciples from the Profound Blossom Sect to be dumbfounded.
”Holy! There are so many people here!”
The sheer amount of people there scared the Junior Disciples. In fact, there were so many people that it looked like a black sea from where they were standing.
”We have to wait in this line? No way! There are tens of thousands of people here, and it will take days if not weeks before we can even enter the city! We might not even make it in time for the registration!”
One of the Junior Disciples became worried.
”Don't worry, this line is only for the spectators and travelers. For people that plan to participate, our line is over there…”
Liu Lanzhi pointed to a certain line near the crowd that was much shorter. However, even with the shorter queue, there were at least a few hundred people in line.
”Let's hurry up and get in line before it becomes even longer,” said Liu Lanzhi as she began walking towards the crowd.
Meanwhile, Su Yang used his Profound Qi to look at the city from a better view.
”This is quite the city…” he thought to himself when he realized that this Snowfall City was spacious enough to fit hundreds of thousands of people with ease.
What's more, besides the outer area that is filled with stores for business, the center of Snowfall City is basically one massive arena, almost like this city was built with only the Regional Tournament in mind.
After taking a good look at the city, Su Yang began probing the people inside and outside this city.
A few moments later, he calculated at least a dozen cultivators at the Heavenly Spirit Realm and two hundred at the Earth Spirit Realm. As for the rest, there were too many to count. However, these numbers will surely be drastically different by the time the Regional Tournament begins, as there are still plenty of people that have yet to arrive.
”Hmm? This is…”
Su Yang suddenly noticed a profound presence within the city that surpassed even the cultivators at the Heavenly Spirit Realm.
”There's actually someone at the Sovereign Spirit Realm in this place? How surprising…”
Su Yang smiled at this find.
”...”
Somewhere in Snowfall City, an old man who had been cultivating in silence suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze filled with a profound aura.
”Hmm… it felt like someone was watching me just now… or am I merely growing senile?”
This old man was the expert at the Sovereign Spirit Realm, and although subtle, he felt a pair of eyes on him.
