Hearing what the guard said, the people present didn’t dare ask more questions. They quietly lined up and walked into the city.
Seeing the wide road in front of them, and the high buildings of several to more than a dozen stories, the worry on their faces turned into astonishment one by one.
So this is Anshan City?
It’s indeed as magnificent as the rumors say.
And at this moment, have they already become a part of it?
"Even if a Beast Tide really breaks out, we should be safe living in the city, right?" A small voice sounded, full of excitement.
"Indeed, look at these city walls, they must be as tall as a dozen-story building? There are even cannons on top. Compared to our village, this place is incredibly powerful."
"Are you kidding? How can this place compare to where we lived before? If a Beast Tide really breaks out, living here is a thousand times better than where we used to be."
"Yes, yes."
Everyone agreed deeply.
They had heard that there was no threshold to enter Anshan City, so they came with a try-your-luck mentality.
Unexpectedly, it was just as the rumors said.
Elder Wang was also in the crowd. His eyes scanned the buildings, finally landing on the Martial Arts Association, then a smile appeared on his face.
Since we’re here, let’s find that little guy? Let’s see what kind of person he really is.
"Old man?"
At this moment, a man in front suddenly turned around and asked with a smile: "Where are you..."
His voice abruptly stopped, staring dumbly at a large man in front of him.
"Brother, do you have something to say?"
The large man looked at him, a bit puzzled.
"No, nothing."
The man smiled awkwardly and looked back, scratched his head, and turned back.
How strange, he clearly remembered that the elderly man was following him, how did he disappear in the blink of an eye?
Before the changes in the world, he was a car salesman, so he had a bit of sharpness.
Generally, elderly people living in the wild are all sallow-skinned, with dirty clothes and dull eyes. Worse, they emit a foul smell, making people avoid them.
But the elder he met at the city gate was all clean, with bright eyes, giving people a very comfortable feeling. And he said he came alone, so this person must be unusual.
He deliberately let others go first, wanting to take the chance to get closer, but the person disappeared?
Unwillingly, he turned around and looked back a few times, finally accepting the result.
Elder Wang walked on the sidewalk.
It was already around seven or eight in the morning, and more people were on the streets.
But oddly, these people seemed unaware of his presence, even when passing by face-to-face, they acted as if they didn’t notice him.
"Anshan City Martial Arts Association."
Elder Wang looked up at the big characters above, then lowered his head and walked in.
The hall of the Martial Arts Association was already crowded with people, discussing in groups of three or five.
"There was nothing unusual last night. Will tonight be the same?"
"Who knows? If it’s the same as last night, that would be great."
"But according to the information spread by the Awakened Association, the Beast Tide may reach the foot of Anshan City in one or two days. Maybe tonight."
"Shut your crow mouth, Wuzi. If the Beast Tide really comes tonight, I will definitely throw you off the city wall to feed those Fierce Beasts." A burly man glared.
"Brother Liu, you said it, not me. I also hope the Beast Tide won’t come." The man shrugged, his face full of helplessness.
If what he said could come true, he would immediately change his words, saying the Beast Tide wouldn’t come. Everyone would be happy.
The burly man’s lips moved a few times but he didn’t say anything.
"Alright, even if the Beast Tide breaks out, everyone shouldn’t worry too much. Have you forgotten we have two True Essence Realm Martial Artists in the city now?" Someone showed two fingers,
"When did our Anshan City have two True Essence Realm Martial Artists guarding it? Never, right?"
"Indeed, in the past, several Beast Tides broke out, and we were able to defend. This time, we can definitely do it too."
"Yes, yes."
Everyone’s spirits lifted immediately.
"Oh? There are actually two True Essence Realm Martial Artists here?" Suddenly, a somewhat surprised voice rang out from the crowd.
The one who asked was none other than Elder Wang.
He clearly remembered that only Chen Fan, that young guy, was a True Essence Realm Martial Artist here. When did another one appear?
As soon as he finished speaking, the hall fell silent. Everyone’s eyes turned to him, then they were all stunned.
Who is this elder?
Why don’t they know him? No, they seemed to have never seen him.
After all, the Anshan City Martial Arts Association was this big. Although there were a lot of members, there was no one as old and white-haired as him.
Could it be another challenger?
"Old man, who are you?" Someone asked tentatively.
The young woman yesterday had already taught everyone a lesson.
Today, they dared not have any thoughts of underestimating anyone.
"Me?"
Elder Wang smiled, saying: "My surname is Wang. Considering that I’m older than you, just call me Elder Wang."
