The consecutive defeats of Bam and Jagger made Guding instantly famous. From an unknown person, he became a household name in the entire city of Ula.
Just as a philosopher said in the history of interstellar navigation: To judge what kind of identity and status a person has, we only need to look at the kind of friends he makes; and to judge what kind of achievements a person can achieve, we need to look at
What kind of opponents does he have.
Bam and Jagger are undoubtedly two very good opponents, making the name "Gulot" completely famous.
Guding got his wish and got his spot in the preliminary round, but in the next few days, other people's competitions continued.
It wasn't until three days later that all the games finally ended, and Guding also watched other people's games from beginning to end.
Jagger naturally got the spot as he wished. With the strength of his soul, except for Gu Ding, who is at the half-step true god level, he has no opponent.
As for Bam, the city lord Capson has chartered a quota for him.
As for the arrogant Kaelsa, his deputy city lord father helped him get a spot.
Regarding half-step true god-level battles, Guding only watched a few games and then stopped watching. He turned to the true god-level matches.
Among the true god levels, the one that concerns Gu Ding the most is the woman in black robe. That woman gives people an unfathomable sense of mystery. Unfortunately, that woman got her preliminary spot early, and Gu Ding did not see her in the ring.
However, the hand-to-hand combat between strong men in the sixth and seventh sequences is also a pleasing show that makes people soar with adrenaline. But for Gu Ding, it does not have much reference effect.
After the screening was completed, Capson called everyone together and announced the quotas for all preliminary rounds. There were 3,000 people for each level, and the three levels added up, a total of 9,000 people.
Gulot's name ranked first in the middle rank. Although there were still some people in the crowd who were dissatisfied, they still chose to accept the result silently. The vast majority of people frankly admitted that Guding was the strongest.
status.
Capson continued his pre-game speech.
"The players we selected this time are undoubtedly the best players in history. I hope everyone can achieve good results in the martial arts competition and bring glory to our Ula City! If someone enters the top ten, no matter which rank they are in, they will win.
Our Ula City’s generous rewards..."
Hearing this, Guding couldn't help but consciously communicated with Poseidon, "Is our ranking related to Ula City?"
"Yes, the top ten cities will receive massive resource rewards from the Tianshen Palace. Especially the top three. The rewards are richer than people can imagine! This is why each city is holding screening competitions very carefully.
Select those powerful guys to participate in this martial arts conference." Poseidon's explanation finally made Gu Ding understand that it turned out that Ula City was paid for sparing no effort in conducting screening competitions.
"Of course, there are two very important reasons why so many people participate in the martial arts conference. First, everyone who ranks in the top ten can obtain massive training resources. Second, everyone who ranks in the top three can obtain it from the Tianshen Palace.
The opportunity to understand the God Monument. It is said that the God Monument contains secrets that can allow people to break through to the level of God. This is also the main reason why so many powerful true gods flock to it."
"The Monument of the Gods..." Gu Ding heard the news and immediately looked forward to this martial arts conference. Originally, his purpose of participating in the martial arts conference was just to kill the current owner of the Tianshen Palace. But now, he also wanted to know what was in the Monument of the Gods.
What kind of secret is hidden?
"Tomorrow morning, all the contestants who have qualified for the preliminary round will gather here, and I will arrange for you to go to Tianjin Palace." Capson's speech did not take too long to come to an end, and the crowd finally dispersed.
Gu Ding stood there and communicated with Poseidon again, "There is still one afternoon. Where is a better place to go shopping?"
"It is said that there is a good barbecue restaurant in Ula City, but the price is a bit high. The ingredients used are all god-level monsters." Poseidon said, imprinting the route into Gu Ding's mind.
"It doesn't seem far away, less than three kilometers from here." Guding checked the location and distance, then looked up in the direction of the barbecue restaurant.
At this moment, a line of fragrance floated over from not far away. Gu Ding turned around and saw that the ninth-sequence true god-level black-robed woman was walking towards him.
"I see that everyone else has left, and you are the only one here." The woman in black robe said quietly, her voice sounded very pleasant, and she seemed to be young.
"I'm going to have barbecue." Guding wasn't sure why this woman came to him, but he didn't care.
"I haven't had barbecue for a long time, how about I go with you?" The woman in black robe chuckled softly, her face still buried deep under the brim of her hat, making Gu Ding unable to see clearly.
"Okay, I haven't eaten for a long time." Guding did not refuse the other party's request.
When the two of them walked all the way to the barbecue restaurant, it was already noon, which happened to be lunch time.
Under an open-air parasol, the two of them sat across from each other at a small table with menus.
Guding quickly ordered what he wanted, but saw that the other party was still undecided, "Just order whatever you want, I will pay for it."
The woman in black robe hesitated for a moment, but only ordered a glass of juice and a dessert.
Guding took a look at her menu, smiled and shook his head, "You really know how to save money."
"You're lucky, I'm not hungry for the time being," the woman in black robe waved her hand and moved the menu aside.
Guding handed the menu to the waiter, and the two fell into an awkward silence again.
Fortunately, their drinks came quickly and they quickly found a common topic.
Looking at Milka in Guding's cup, the woman in black robe said with a smile, "I can't believe that a man like you would drink such a drink that even women don't drink."
"I think it tastes good, why should you care about other people's opinions?" Guding said with a grin.
"That's true." The woman in black robe smiled after hearing this and stared at Gu Ding for a long time. She suddenly spoke again, "Why did you think of participating in this competition?"
"I heard that the secret to advancing to the level of a god is hidden in the Sky God Monument, so I wanted to take a look." Guding gave a reason that sounded very reasonable.
"Is it that simple?" the woman in black robe asked with a smile.
"There is another reason, but it's not convenient to say." Gu Ding smiled and shook his head. "What about you? It should also be for the God Monument, right?"
"No," the woman in black robe shook her head, paused for a long time, and then continued, "I'm looking for someone."
"Looking for someone? That person should be very important to you, right?" Guding asked casually.
"You can say that," the woman in black robe was silent for a moment, then nodded.
The dishes they ordered were quickly brought out, and the two fell into silence again.
Guding devoured the barbecue on the table, while the woman in black robe cut the dessert into small pieces with a knife and fork, slowly put it into her mouth, and then chewed it for a long time before swallowing it. It felt like...
At the same table, the two people's eating styles are completely different. One is rough and bold, the other is noble and elegant.
This difference also attracted the attention of many diners nearby.
Gu Ding naturally didn't care, and the woman in black robe also acted very calmly. The two of them completely ignored other people's pointing.
This state lasted for nearly half an hour. Guding finished cleaning up all the barbecue, and the woman in black robe put down the knife and fork in her hand after him.
"Thank you for your hospitality. The dessert tastes very good." After more than half an hour of silence, the woman in black robe finally spoke again.
During the past half hour, Gu Ding had his mouth full of barbecue, so it was difficult to talk, and the other party never spoke.
"Would you like another one?" Guding always felt that eating desserts that were less than half the size of a palm of rice would only make people hungrier.
"No, one is enough." The woman in black robe shook her head and stared at Gu Ding for a long time. Then she suddenly said, "My name is Lilian."
"My name is Gulot." Guding nodded and said his pseudonym.
"I know, I have watched your competition, and I think that with your strength, if nothing unexpected happens, you should be able to win the intermediate championship in the martial arts competition." Lilian said bluntly.
"Thank you, I think you also have the possibility of winning the senior tier championship." Guding expressed his opinion.
"Why do you say that? Can you see the strength of my combat power? But you are obviously only half a true god." Lilian asked a little strangely.
"Of course I can't see it, I just have this feeling." Guding shook his head. He could see the strength and weakness of others, but he had never let outsiders know.
"Feeling? People with strong souls do have more sensitive feelings than ordinary people." Lilian just muttered in a low voice and didn't ask any more questions.
After eating the barbecue, Lillian seemed to have something to worry about, so the two parted ways.
"This woman named Lilian is indeed a bit weird." Poseidon also gave his own judgment, "She has lunch with you inexplicably, and the reason she gave is so far-fetched. She said she hasn't had barbecue for a long time.
In the end, she only ate a small dessert. And it was less than half the size of a palm of rice, and she actually ate it for more than half an hour."
"Although I don't know what her purpose is, it seems that she didn't get the answer she wanted from me." Guding was very sure that his identity was definitely not exposed.
"No matter what, it's better to be careful. Once your identity is exposed, not only will you not be able to participate in this martial arts conference, but you will also be surrounded and suppressed by the powerful people in this world." Poseidon warned again.
"Don't worry, I will pay attention." Of course Guding did not dare to let down his guard. He would stay in this world for several months. Before that, once his identity was exposed, it would cause endless trouble. (Unfinished)
