Chapter 72: Who Is Number 1

Xiao Chen looked around and guessed that everyone had probably left. Thinking of Yueying's words, he thought that the people from Qizi County had already received the news, and this trial would end early.

Just when he was about to leave, suddenly a sense of danger came, and when he released his consciousness, Xiao Chen sensed a big tree twenty meters in front of the left, and there was a warrior hidden in the shadow.

This warrior restrained all his aura, stared at Xiao Chen, and killed him immediately after waiting for a chance.

Xiao Chen controlled his consciousness, and after seeing him clearly, he couldn't help but smile. This person is actually a great martial artist of the Zhang family, and he should have come with the two elders of the Tang family, but I don't know how this person escaped Ye Chenzhou's pursuit.

But the breath on his body was a little weak. In order to escape Ye Chenzhou's pursuit, it took a lot of energy to come, and it was obvious that he had not had a good rest.

In his current state, he didn't leave this place as soon as possible, but still wanted to kill himself, how much Zhang Family hates him, Xiao Chen murmured in his heart.

This person's current state is at most only half of his usual state. Xiao Chen doesn't want to run away. This is not necessarily a trial opportunity for him, it is much more interesting than a monster.

Immediately, he took the first shot, lightning flashed, Xiao Chen's body suddenly appeared behind the man, the moon shadow knife shone in all directions, and the endless pressure of the sixth-order demon core scattered around.

The man looked back at Xiao Chen's smiling face, with an extremely surprised expression on his face. He couldn't figure out how Xiao Chen knew that he was hiding here.

...

Outside the dark forest, the sun is high and the sun is shining.

"Father, why did you call us back, Xiao Chen's cousin has not come out yet." Xiao Yulan said dissatisfiedly to Xiao Qiang.

Not long after Xiao Chen left, Xiao Qiang brought the four warriors from the Xiao family to the Xiao family's camp. He only said a word that the trial was over ahead of schedule and brought everyone out.

Xiao Chen frowned and said: "The masters sent by Qizi County to the core area of ​​the dark forest, except for a great martial artist who escaped, all the others died, including the master of the Wuzun level."

Everyone behind them took a deep breath and said, "The masters of the Wu Zun level are dead. Are the monsters in the dark forest so terrifying?"

"He was killed, not in the hands of monsters, and the state of death was extremely terrifying. Qizi County has already reported the matter of the dark forest to the royal family. Now we can't get involved here, so the trial is also required. Cancel." Xiao Qiang explained.

Xiao Yulan's pretty face changed slightly, and she said anxiously, "Cousin Xiao Chen, isn't it even more dangerous, I'll go in and find him."

"Bullshit!" Xiao Qiang shouted fiercely, "You don't even think about what happened in Qijiao Mountain, is Xiao Chen dying so easily? If he wants to run, even Wu Zun can't catch him, you can only give He adds to the burden."

Xiao Yulan's eyes turned red, but she didn't say anything in the end.

"Elder Xiao, what are you doing, scolding people? It's not good." Tang Tian, ​​the head of the Tang family, came over with a group of people, "What about the second young master of your family? Bar."

Xiao Qiang looked at Tang Tian and said coldly, "Don't think that I don't know the little things you did in the dark forest, but unfortunately you are not as good as the sky, and the two elder-level characters died in vain."

Tang Tian's expression changed, and then he smiled and said, "Elder Xiao said that Tang did not understand, but although this trial ended early, the results of the three families are still comparable. I don't know how many demon cores the Xiao family has harvested. "

"When the city lord comes, I will report the number by myself. I hope that the Tang family will not report too few."

The Xiao family recovered a total of 180 second-order demon cores this time. It only took three days to achieve such a result. Xiao Qiang was already very satisfied, so he was not afraid of Tang Tian's remarks.

After a while, the city lord Dugufeng called the three families together. His expression looked very relaxed, and the dark forest didn't seem to affect him much.

Dugufeng smiled and said, "Although this trial has been affected to some extent,

It has to be terminated in advance, but the old rules, the competition of the three of you should continue. I don’t know if anyone will surpass the Xiao family this time. It has been the first time for the Xiao family. "

"Just come from the Zhang family first, I don't know how many demon cores the Zhang family has harvested this time."

The Zhang family's patriarch heard this, his face was extremely ugly, this time their Zhang family's most capable young disciple Zhang He Wuhun was injured and did not come. There was not much to gain at all, but at this time the city owner had spoken, and he had to report it.

"The Zhang family has obtained a total of fifty second-order demon cores during this trip," said the head of the Zhang family.

Dugufeng was not surprised by this result, and said with a chuckle: "It's okay, Zhang He didn't come, it's not bad for you to achieve such a result."

"The Tang family will report the number next. I still have high expectations for the Tang family."

Tang Tian smiled lightly and said, "The city lord has lifted it up. The Tang family has harvested a total of one hundred second-order demon cores this time."

After Tang Tian finished speaking, he glanced at Xiao Qiang, the meaning in his eyes was obvious, it's time for you to count.

Xiao Qiang was slightly relieved when he heard the report from the Tang family, looking at the eyes of the city lord, Xiao Qiang said: "The Xiao family has obtained a total of 180 second-order demon cores in this trial. "

Dugu Feng laughed loudly when he heard the words: "It seems that the Xiao family's background is deep enough. This trial is the Xiao family's victory again, congratulations."

With a deep smile on Tang Tian's face, he said, "Don't rush to congratulate the city lord, Tang Feng will show the city lord your harvest."

Hearing this, Tang Feng stepped forward, took out six demon cores and placed them in front of the city lord. The luster on these six demon cores was extremely deep, making them different from a group of second-order demon cores.

Someone immediately exclaimed, "This is the third-order demon core."

"Yeah, it's really a third-order demon core." Someone next to him took one of the demon cores and said in surprise after watching it carefully.

The third-order monster is comparable to the strength of the junior martial artist. This Tang Feng can actually take out six at once, which is really unbelievable.

"After so many years of trials in Mohe City, it seems that I have never heard of anyone who hunted the third-order demon core. It seems that the Tang family is going to win the first place this time, and it will beat the Xiao family!"

"Yeah, what's even more rare is that he only has the strength of a top-grade martial artist. As long as this strength goes further, I am afraid that no one will be his opponent in the next ten years."

Dugufeng took a closer look at the three demon cores that Tang Feng handed over, and at the end said with a light smile: "It seems that the Xiao family's first position is not guaranteed this time, the value of these three third-order demon cores is enough to resist a Hundred second-order demon cores."

Tang Tian looked at Xiao Qiang with a sullen face, "Elder Xiao, I'm sorry, the first trial this time belongs to my Tang family."

If you can suppress the Xiao family in this trial, and enter the Xiao family again after ten years, the Xiao family's prestige will drop to the bottom.

Those business groups and forces that have contacts with the Xiao family will soon see the situation and cut off contact with the Xiao family, and the Xiao family will truly enter a desperate situation.

Xiao Qiang's face was a little ugly. He thought he would win the game, but he was slapped in the face in the end. Tang Tian's move was too poisonous.

The faces of the children of the Xiao family were also extremely ugly. This trial represented the honor of the family. If they didn’t get the first place, they all took responsibility. Even Xiao Linger, who was usually quirky and quirky, bit her red lips lightly at this time. sluggish.

At this moment, Xiao Jian in the crowd walked slowly to the city lord, took out five demon cores, and said lightly: "I also got five third-order demon cores, please identify the city lord."

After speaking, he walked to the back without being humble, his face was as calm as water, making people unable to guess what he was thinking.

"It's Xiao Jian. Could it be that he also obtained the fifth-order demon core."

"The first person in Mohe City, did he really get the third-order demon core?"

"I heard that after he was humiliated by Zhang He, he has been unable to retreat. I didn't expect it to be a blockbuster at this time. I don't know if it can save the Xiao family's defeat."

"I don't think so. After all, he only took out five third-order demon cores, but Tang Feng took out six."

The people in the city lord's mansion next to them were talking a lot, but no one expected that the result of this trial would be twists and turns for the first time.

Dugufeng pondered for a moment and then said: "These five demon cores are indeed third-order demon cores. I thought about the Tang family having one more third-order demon core than the Xiao family, and the Xiao family having eighty second-order demon cores than the Tang family. , how about a draw?"

Xiao Qiang smiled lightly on his face and accepted the result. He thought he would lose the game, but who knew that the twists and turns would turn and it would not be bad to be able to get a draw.

At this time, Tang Tian was the most unhappy. He said with some dissatisfaction: "The value of the third-order demon core is not known to be much higher than that of the second-order demon core. I think it can be worth at least a hundred second-order demon cores."

Xiao Qiang sneered: "Do you think it is worth a hundred if you say it is worth a hundred? Do you think you are the pavilion master of the Linlang Pavilion? What do you think, I think it is only worth fifty pieces. What can you do?"

Tang Tian said angrily: "Anyway, I won't accept this draw. After I go back, I will publicize that the Tang family has won the first place in this trial."

Dugufeng is also a little difficult to handle at this time. He is not good at making judgments about such a result. After all, he is not an expert in the value of this demon core.

"It's not a draw, I think so too, but it's you who lost, the Tang family."

Who is saying such things, the air is so big.

Everyone looked back and saw the figure of a young man slowly walking out of the dark forest's exit. His eyes were slightly narrowed, and he was a little uncomfortable with the sudden appearance of strong light.

With a round package on his back, the sun hit his face, and his barely handsome face shined brightly. His voice was not loud, but everyone heard it clearly. his words.

"Cousin Xiao Chen, you are finally back."

"Brother Xiao Chen, come and avenge Linger."

"team leader,……"

The children of the Xiao family who were on the mission to go with Xiao Chen, all ran over in surprise, Xiao Chen greeted them one by one, the smile on his face did not diminish, and he came to Tang Tian and looked at him fearlessly.

"Since you don't want a draw, I'll convince you of the loss."

With a wave of his hand, he released three demon cores and said, "This is the demon core of the third-order demon beast, the demon-patterned leopard. There are three in total."

"This is the demon core of the third-order demon beast Blood Moon Demon Monkey, and it is also three."

"This is the demon core of the third-order monster sword-tailed dragon, there are four in total."

Xiao Chen didn't give out the name of each type of monster, and the besieged crowd would exclaim in surprise. Finally, Xiao Chen took out the monster cores of eight types of monsters, at least three of each.

"What else do you have to say, Tang Tian, ​​your Tang family can never surpass the Xiao family. If you want to be the first, ask me if Xiao Chen is sure." Xiao Chen looked at the stunned Tang Tian and said coldly. .

Everyone in the Xiao family felt that they let out a sigh of relief. Looking at Tang Tian's speechless appearance, they felt extremely comfortable in their hearts.

Xiao Chen said lightly: "If you still feel dissatisfied, the package behind me is still worth a hundred second-order demon cores."

After Xiao Chen finished speaking, the round package behind him was opened, and he threw it on the ground. A round human head rolled around alone on the ground, his eyes were wide open and he couldn't rest his eyes.

"That is an elder of the Zhang family. How could he be killed by Xiao Chen? According to the regulations, he should not appear in the dark forest." The onlookers took a deep breath.

"what!"

"what!"

Tang Tian and the head of the Zhang family exclaimed at the same time, their faces changed, looking at Xiao Chen's eyes, showing a trace of horror.
