Han Zhao took out a handkerchief and wiped the mud off Yu Niang’s body. Then, he took out the map, found the direction, and left the river.
An hour later, he arrived outside Yuan Chang County with his original appearance.
Looking up at the thick city wall that was nearly 40 meters tall, Han Zhao couldn’t help but be speechless.
The city wall which was more than ten stories tall was too exaggerated at first glance. Moreover, there was no end in sight on both sides.
In the ancient times of his previous life, the tallest city wall was only about ten meters.
However, to the martial artists of this world and the descendants of aristocratic families, 40 meters was not very high. This city wall could probably only prevent martial artists below Force Tempering.
Through his powerful eyesight, Han Zhao saw the soldiers in black armor on the city wall and the bed crossbows beside them.
An ordinary Martial Master’s protective Internal Force would probably not be able to withstand it head-on.
“As expected of the prefecture capital.”
Han Zhao sighed and followed the crowd through the spacious city gate.
“It’s so big!” This was the first time Han Zhao had seen such a huge city in this world. The streets were wide and clean.
Buildings that were considered tall in Blackrock City were almost everywhere here. Large blocks of tall buildings were arranged in an orderly manner.
According to Lu Yi, Yuan Chang County’s prefecture capital was also divided into inner and outer districts. According to the market district, that meant that just the outer district of the prefecture capital was already so prosperous.
There were nearly two million residents here. Not to mention in the ancient times of his previous life, even in the modern times of his previous life, it was considered a big city.
This did not include the villages and forts around the prefecture capital. Otherwise, there would probably be millions of people in total.
Only a world with extraordinary power could provide for so many people in a city without technology.
Just the trash produced every day was unimaginable.
Han Zhao grabbed a passing young lady and asked for directions.
He was currently in Longquan District in the outer city. It was located at the south entrance of Yuan Chang County’s prefecture capital, and the Guanglin
District where the martial arts academy was located was at the east entrance.
It seemed to be the closest in a straight line, but according to the young lady, entering the inner city first and leaving through the east gate of the inner city before turning to the martial arts academy in Guanglin District was the fastest.
“Thank you.” Han Zhao cupped his fists in thanks and ran towards the inner
He passed through the southern gate of the inner city and entered the Qianchuan District.
At this moment, when he passed by a square, he realized that there were two huge stone tablets standing in the middle of the square. A group of people surrounded the two stone tablets.
With his eyesight, he could see the human figures and words on it.
‘Qian Heaven Ranking… ‘I
“Qilin Ranking…”
Han Zhao recalled the jade token just now.
He approached slightly and observed the two stone tablets behind the crowd.
“295th… Name unknown, origin unknown, martial arts unknown, realm: Force Tempering?”
Han Zhao’s pupils constricted. He found his disguise near the bottom of the Qilin Rankings.
Just by looking at this jade token, he knew his realm. It was really terrifying.
Fortunately, this jade token hadn’t reached the extent of being able to see through his disguise, and it was impossible to know his name, origins, and martial techniques out of thin air.
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, Han Zhao raised his eyebrows.
A hand reached out towards his shoulder from the side, but it did not exert any strength, nor did it circulate Internal Force.
Seeing this, he did not counterattack.
A large hand patted his shoulder.
“Brother, are you new?”
Han Zhao turned around and saw a delicate-looking young man with lively eyes standing beside him, looking at him with a smile.
“How did you know?” Han Zhao asked calmly.
“Every time I pass by Qianchuan District, I’ll come to look at the Qilin Ranking and the Qian Heaven Ranking. I’m looking forward to being on the rankings one day. I’m familiar with the people who often come to look at the rankings nearby. With your looks, as long as I see you once, it’s impossible for me not to remember you.
The other party seemed to be very familiar with him.
“I’ve indeed just arrived at the prefecture capital and am preparing to go to the Martial Academy to find someone. If possible, I want to stay in the Martial Academy.” Han Zhao nodded.
“What a coincidence. I’m also learning martial arts in the martial arts academy.” The delicate young man smiled and said, “By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Yan Baichuan, and I’m a disciple of the Yan family in the city. Everyone in the martial arts academy calls me the know-it-all of the prefecture capital. There’s nothing I don’t know.”
When Han Zhao heard the other party’s arrogance, he cupped his fists and said, “I’m Han Zhao. Greetings, Brother Yan.”
“Sure, sure.” When Yan Baichuan saw that Han Zhao was so sensible, his smile became even brighter.
He patted Han Zhao’s shoulder and couldn’t help but show off. “Brother Han, who do you think you’re looking for? There are thousands of people in the martial arts academy. As long as you say the word, I’ll help you find them in an hour.”
“I’m here to look for my senior sister. Her name is Lu Yingxuan.”
Han Zhao smiled.
“Who is it?!” Yan Baichuan’s voice rose an octave. He retracted his hand from Han Zhao’s shoulder and sized him up seriously.
“What’s wrong? Is there something wrong with my senior sister?” Han Zhao asked curiously.
According to Lu Yi, Lu Yingxuan was a very obedient girl before she fell out with him.
Of course, according to Lu Yingxuan’s performance in the simulation, she had clearly changed a lot.
“Wait, I’ve seen this plot many times in the storybook. A young man from the countryside went to a big city alone to look for his fiancée, who was the favored daughter of the heavens. In the end, the other party heartlessly broke off the engagement.”
“After many fortuitous encounters, the young man finally stood at the top of the world. As for the heavenly prodigy who broke off the engagement back then, she had long disappeared into the crowd. It was too late for regrets.” Yan Baichuan said in a low voice as if he had already seen through him..
