Chapter 948
Given the status of the old monster Nie Wu, owning a luxurious manor in the City of Ten Thousand Races is naturally nothing special.
However, although his manor occupies a large area in the city of ten thousand races where land is extremely valuable, its architectural style is not extremely luxurious.
On the contrary, it exudes a low-key and simple charm.
Compared to the luxurious estates of other bigwigs in the same area, it appears particularly inconspicuous.
It's even unknown whether this old monster set up some unique formation.
His estate was not just unremarkable on the outside.
It's more like it's been specially designed to have a buff that reduces its presence.
Basically, unless you're making a very specific decision to go to his estate.
So even if you pass by, you basically won't notice it.
Not to mention impromptu visits on a whim.
Even if you deliberately go to that manor, you can often inexplicably get lost among its simple and unassuming architecture...
In short, this can be seen from the characteristics of that manor—
It seems that the old monster, Nie Wu, prefers to live in seclusion.
He must have been quite displeased with guests coming to visit him.
However, the manor of the reclusive old man, Nie Wu, was not quiet at this moment.
It mainly gathered a group of young students who were old and eccentric.
Among these young students, the focus at this moment was naturally on Wang Ling, who had just returned from the conference room of the five alliance leaders.
Although Wang Ling had sworn an oath in the conference room that she could not mention the white scroll or the "0000 votes" to anyone.
However, some things about the Land of the Dead can still be spread.
Even at this time, news about the Lord of the Underworld abducting young prodigies and burning their lifespans had already begun to spread throughout all races.
Of course, the news that the Lord of the Underworld might have secretly placed other prodigies as pawns also spread quickly.
In an instant, the entire race was thrown into a state of panic because of this news.
In recent years, especially, those clans whose members have had outstanding talents log into the primary realm battlefield have begun to take various measures to examine their own talents.
They feared that their own prodigy might truly become a pawn in the Lord of the Underworld's clutches...
Of course, it was also because of the release of this news.
The Lord of the Underworld, whose reputation was already poor, suddenly became infamous and was hated by everyone.
Of course, besides the scandal of the Lord of the Underworld secretly abducting geniuses, there was another piece of good news that sparked even more heated discussions among the myriad races.
That is--
Before the already highly anticipated selection competition, an even more intense preliminary round was held!
Of course, the contestants who were already qualified to participate in the selection competition were very dissatisfied with the existence of this preliminary selection competition.
After all, 10,000 open audition slots will inevitably intensify the competition in the selection process.
Of course, some top talents from the two academies didn't care about the so-called preliminary rounds.
Some arrogant geniuses even went so far as to say that even if 10,000 open selection slots were released, how many of those contestants who came from the open selections would actually be able to win the selection competition and obtain the qualification to finally enter the realm battlefield?
All that hard work to compete for those 10,000 audition slots is nothing but a pipe dream, a fleeting illusion.
The prodigies in the City of Myriad Races are mostly high and mighty.
Therefore, their attitude towards the preliminary rounds was mostly one of disdain.
Only a few with some empathy can realize this—
For ordinary players, those 10,000 open selection slots represent more than just a competition to participate in the selection process.
That could very well be a rare opportunity for them to enter the City of Myriad Races based on their own strength...
As a saying once circulated in human society—
Some people only need 20 minutes to get to the Children's Palace;
Some people go to the Children's Palace, but it takes them 20 years.
Undoubtedly, the prodigies of the City of Myriad Races only need 20 minutes to participate in the selection competition.
Those contestants who come from the preliminary rounds might have to go through 20 years...
