Chapter 727

Luo Tian and Lord Bing Ling were stunned and turned back to look.

They saw a strange old man standing behind them, staring at them curiously.

"Something the matter?" Luo Tian looked at him and asked, frowning.

The old man grinned and said, "The two of you must be visiting our Cloud Sky City for the first time, right?"

"How did you know?" Luo Tian looked at the old man, feeling curious.

The old man said, "It's simple; I don't see any marks of the Heavenly Beast Battlefield on you two!"

"Heavenly Beast Battlefield? What is that?" Luo Tian turned to look at Lord Bing Ling.

But he saw that she was also looking blank.

The old man chuckled and said, "You two are indeed newcomers, so let me introduce it to you! This Heavenly Beast Battlefield is the most famous thing in our Cloud Sky City! Within the entire Moon Wheel Kingdom... no, even in the entire Central Plains, it is a top-tier beast-fighting arena!"

"Beast-fighting arena?" Hearing this, a flash of disgust appeared in Lord Bing Ling's eyes.

The old man didn't seem to notice her mood and continued to speak to himself, "That's right! The exotic beasts in the Heavenly Beast Battlefield are all selected through layers of screening!"

"Especially this month, Young Master, you've come at the perfect time! You don't know, this month is the liveliest time of the year for the Heavenly Beast Battlefield!"

Luo Tian looked at him and asked, "How is it the liveliest?"

The old man said mysteriously, "The owner of the Heavenly Beast Battlefield found a legendary treasure of the Dragon Race in a secret realm! I heard that when this item appeared that day, it caused a heavenly tribulation that lasted for three whole days! It wasn't until the last Immortal Realm expert made a move to conceal the treasure's aura that the heavenly tribulation dissipated!"

Hearing this, Luo Tian was slightly surprised and said, "There's actually such a thing?"

"That's for sure!" the old man laughed.

"And then?" Hearing about a Dragon Race treasure, Lord Bing Ling also put away her disgust and asked.

"And then, the owner of the Heavenly Beast Battlefield decided to use this Dragon Race treasure as a reward! They are opening a Heavenly Dragon Assembly at the Heavenly Beast Battlefield! Inviting beast tamers from all over the world to have a duel! The final winner can take away that Dragon Race treasure!" the old man said.

"Heavenly Dragon Assembly?" Hearing this name, Luo Tian couldn't help but turn his head to look at the little guy sleeping on his shoulder.

This guy is still sleeping, yet someone is holding an assembly in his name?

The old man continued to talk incessantly, "In order to seize that treasure, countless experts from the Central Plains to the Southern Region have come to compete! Just in the few days I've been in the city, I've seen several divine beasts with my own eyes!"

"Divine beasts? What divine beasts?" Lord Bing Ling asked.

"One of them is a divine beast of the Qilin clan from the Southern Region at the Immortal Realm, the Fire Qilin! When that Fire Qilin appeared that day, it almost destroyed half of Cloud Sky City! But fortunately, an expert made a move to protect the city, so it wasn't destroyed!"

"But, the aura of that divine beast is definitely the most terrifying thing I've ever seen in my life!"

"Besides that, a monster-level expert also appeared from the Western Region! It was a Profound Ice Bird! When it appeared that day, it almost fought directly with the Fire Qilin! It was also thanks to an immortal making a move that those two were separated!"

"Besides that, those mysterious hidden sects also brought some divine beasts, but they are always sneaky, so I don't know what they are exactly! But they are definitely no weaker than the first two!"

"The most critical thing is, there is a legend that even experts of the Dragon Race have come! They might be trying to take advantage of the situation to reclaim their clan's treasure!"

Hearing this, Luo Tian was stunned and said, "Dragon Race experts? Are there still Dragon Race experts now?"

The old man nodded and said, "Of course! The Dragon Race has declined, but it hasn't gone extinct! The reason you haven't seen those guys appear all these years is mainly because they have gone into seclusion and don't want to be disturbed by outsiders!"

"However, the appearance of the Dragon Race treasure this time has made them unable to resist making a move! I expect we will see them in action at this Heavenly Dragon Assembly! But, forgive me for being blunt, the era of the Dragon Race has passed after all!"

"Although their talent is high, their cultivation resources are insufficient! Facing other divine beasts, I'm afraid they will fall behind..."

The old man sighed to this point, then remembered he hadn't said his main business, and hurriedly said, "Young Master, such a grand event is absolutely not to be missed!"

"It's just that the qualifications to watch the Heavenly Beast Battlefield are too rare! They were sold out months ago!"

"I was lucky enough to get two tickets, but recently, my wife fell ill and needs money for treatment, so I want to sell these two tickets to get some money to treat her..."

Speaking of this, tears welled up in the old man's eyes.

"Is that so... how much do you want to sell them for?" Hearing this, Lord Bing Ling's sympathy overflowed.

The old man sighed and said, "Originally, I bought these two tickets for one hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones! But now, I really need money urgently, and I feel we are fated, so... how about selling them to you two for fifty thousand low-grade spirit stones each?"

As he spoke, a look of reluctance appeared on his face.

Lord Bing Ling frowned upon hearing this.

The old man observed her expression and hurriedly changed his tune, "If you think it's expensive, then I will take one more step back, forty thousand each! I really can't lower the price anymore; my wife needs at least eighty thousand low-grade spirit stones for treatment! Otherwise..."

After speaking, he couldn't help but cry.

Seeing this, Lord Bing Ling said, "Old man, you misunderstood; I wasn't trying to haggle! I was saying, why don't we buy them at the original price of one hundred thousand each? Luo Tian, what do you think?"

Luo Tian was just about to speak upon hearing this.

But just then...

"You stinky old man, I've finally found you! Return the money you cheated from your grandmother!" A woman's voice rang out from afar.

"Hmm? That persistent ghost! You two, excuse me!" Hearing the voice, the old man's face changed drastically, and he slipped away in a flash, leaving Luo Tian and Lord Bing Ling stunned on the spot.

And just then...

"You old scoundrel!" The woman's voice came from far to near; she soon caught up, and seeing the old man slip away, she was panting with rage.

But turning around, the woman saw Luo Tian and was instantly delighted, saying, "Luo Tian? You're actually here?"

Luo Tian was stunned, only then noticing that the young girl before him was an acquaintance!

"Huang Yinger? Why are you here too?" Luo Tian asked in surprise.

The woman before him was none other than the Lightning Divine Body of the Northern Region's Shencheng, Huang Yinger.

Since parting ways at the Northern Region's Shencheng, he never expected to meet her again in the Central Plains.

Huang Yinger wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Me? I was ordered by my family to attend this Heavenly Dragon Assembly! But I didn't expect to be cheated as soon as I entered the city!"

By the end, she couldn't help but grit her teeth again.

"Cheated? What do you mean?" Luo Tian asked.
