The entire group of youngsters looked around with big, wide open eyes They knew that Tiankong City was ait to the capital was the sa an ant next to an elephant

As they ates, everyone was stunned silly by the sheer size of the city wall alone

It wasTiankong City, and the gates were equally impressive

A steady streaates Some were in caravans, while others were on their own Some rode on horses, while others walked on foot

Sos Soars, and yet soroup to hesitate at the gates, as the ones froroup was filled with dread as they followed behind the captain, fearful of losing hiht

They walked down major roads and came further and further into the city At the outskirts, the town had mainly consisted of houses and residential areas with the odd inn and restaurant here and there, but the further into the town they came, the more marketplaces they found

It was on one of these marketplaces that the captain finally carouped around hiate where we entered at noon a week from now,” the captain announced ”Those who do not show up are on their own to get to the recruitment camp If you do notsaid this, the captain gestured for the guards to follow hiht to first find ourselves an inn,” Shen Mu said as the first and the others nodded their heads The commoners who did not have any coins with the of their friends before they ventured into the city in search of somewhere to sell their beast cores

”They will not all make it back alive,” Xue Wei mumbled to himself If they were prudent and only sold one or two beast cores at a time, they should be fine But if they sold s within the city

Too reed and not care about the consequences Especially since these co quality Some of them were of excellent quality, as their faood set of clothes, while others earing clothes made from more ordinary fabrics

Those with clothes from ordinary fabric were especially likely to lose their little lives They were not nobles and their background wasn’t terrifying It was highly unlikely that anyone would find the thugs and cause proble realistic about all of this, Xue Wei just shook his head and shtly He did not have a favorable i at him with reverence, they had all looked down on hio as far as to kill theo out of his way to save them either

”Well, should we look for an inn?” Shen Mu turned to look at Xue Wei Although the leader of the group was Shen Mu, he felt that it was only natural that he asked for Xue Wei's opinion since he was undoubtedly the strongest a et rid of his beast cores, and as long as no one kneas in his bag, he would be fine

He also acknowledged that going together as a group was a lot safer than going alone Although his strength was slightly overwhelsters, he was also very well aware that these thugs in the city were all ruthless and used to fighting The h Xue Wei could kill a one layered Earth Warrior, hold his own against a second layered Earth Warrior, and escape from a third layered Earth Warrior, he was also aware that he was not as forsters made him seeons and crouching tigers Geniuses were as vast as the clouds in the sky here Although he had reached the ninth layered Ordinary Warrior rank within half a year’s tih ti the strength of an Earth Warrior just yet, eniuses of the capital

”I have never been in the capital before,” Shen Mu said after hesitating for aabout this place,” he continued with a sigh, and only then did Xue Wei speak

”The capital is split into the outer city and the inner city To enter the outer city is free and everyone can coo as they please The inner city, on the other hand, is different There, you have to pay a silver coin for entry, but it is also many tiuard corps often referred to as the Mastiffs, while the corps within the inner city are known as Bloodhounds”

”The Mastiffs are bribed by s They will only move on direct orders from the Bloodhounds, and the iven by the shady organizations to overlook their way of working”

”If you die in the outer city, you are fortunate if they even bother to cremate your body and not just duh the city”

”The inner city, on the other hand, is almost free of cri as they follow certain rules, but in general, you are much safer inside the inner city”
