Chapter 2944 Right to speak

The ten-day period is coming in a blink of an eye!

Early that morning, General Liu and Xue Jing went to the secret room where Du Long was practicing in seclusion, and called out Du Long, who was immersed in cultivation in the secret realm of Genlong.

"How is it?! After these two days of research, do you have the confidence to fight against Elder Budi?!"

As soon as General Liu saw Du Long appearing at the door of the secret room, he couldn't help but ask: "If you don't have the confidence... you can choose to give up the fight for the position of elder!"

As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you won’t have to worry about running out of firewood!

The worst case scenario is to temporarily give up the opportunity to advance as elders in this term, and it’s not too late to compete for it in the next term!

Whether it is the City Lord Competition or the Elders Promotion Competition, there is no special restriction on participation in one session. As long as you are the City Lord of Jinshan World, you can participate.

"I will not give up this opportunity to compete for the position of elder!" Du Long replied with an extremely firm look: "That elder Budi is indeed very powerful, but I may not have any chance of defeating him!"

"It's good if you have confidence!" General Liu observed silently for a moment, then smiled relievedly and said: "In that case, let's set off to the temple immediately to prepare for the Elder Promotion Competition!"

"Temple?!" Du Long was stunned for a moment and said, "I thought I was going to the martial arts arena to compete!"

"Haha!" General Liu said with a faint smile: "The Elders Promotion Competition is not completely open to the public, it can only be regarded as a semi-public competition!"

Du Long nodded lightly, then said hello to Xue Jing, and then they followed General Liu directly to the temple in the heart of the city in the flying boat.

The temple is located in the center of the huge city and is also the highest point in the entire Jinshan world.

Looking at the temple from the flying boat, it is completely a huge building complex built on a golden mountain thousands of feet long. All the buildings are built around the golden mountain.

In fact, the top of Jinshan World, which is several light-years high, looks like a huge landmass when viewed from outer space.

The temple is the highest point of this "land". The surface of the huge "land" is criss-crossed by hundreds of millions of mountains. It is not as simple as what can be seen with the naked eye from outer space.

The flying boat soon landed in the huge square outside the Jinshan Temple, and a sixth-level golden-armored God Emperor immediately came to greet him.

"General Liu! You are finally here! This time, two city lords under Zhao Pojun's protector have been promoted to the top ten. It is really gratifying!" The Golden Armored God Emperor seemed to know General Liu and greeted him politely as soon as he came up. road.

"Haha!" General Liu said with a slightly smug smile on his face: "That's because the two city lords strive for their own success, and we are just lucky enough to have them under our command!"

"Haha! General Liu is so humble!" The Golden Armored God Emperor smiled lightly and said: "The other promoted city lords are almost here, and I would like to invite the three of them to enter the temple with me!"

"Good work!"

Under the leadership of the golden-armored God Emperor, the group entered the temple gate without any hindrance.

You can see that the entire temple is completely surrounded by a golden Great Wall. The city wall is heavily guarded and outsiders can never enter without permission.

Entering the temple gate, you can see that the buildings in the outermost area of ​​the temple are relatively simple, looking like standard buildings.

Thinking of the countless soldiers on the temple walls, one can deduce that those standard buildings should be the family buildings of the soldiers guarding the temple.

Under the leadership of the Golden Armor God Emperor, after passing through the outermost area, they arrived at the core area built into the temple.

Here Du Long once again saw a great wall that surrounded the golden mountains of the temple. The endless wall was still full of powerful soldiers in gold and silver armor.

Because of the leadership of the Golden-armored God Emperor, their group was not stopped for interrogation, but was directly let in.

Du Long looked at the extremely heavily defended scene in front of him with curiosity, and finally couldn't help but secretly sent a message to ask: 'General Liu! Why is the temple's defense so tight? ! Could it be that. . . What other forces could exist in this Jinshan world that could threaten the safety of the temple? ! ’

No wonder he would have such doubts. Almost all the countless cities in Jinshan World are under the control of the temple. If there were not threats from powerful foreign enemies, there would be no need to stage such a large battle.

'this. . . ’ General Liu muttered hesitantly: ‘There must be a threat. . . But where exactly this threat comes from, you will naturally understand it after you advance to become an elder. ’

Du Long was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that General Liu didn't want to say more for the time being, and immediately stopped asking further questions.

His eyes once again fell on the various buildings in the temple in front of him. He could see that the architectural styles here were more diverse, and he could clearly feel that the quality of the buildings here was higher.

The group of people continued to walk diagonally along the main road. As the sixth-level peak god emperors, their traveling speed would naturally not be slow. Otherwise, it would take who knows how long it would take to complete such a peak of tens of millions of feet.

During this period, Du Long couldn't help but look back and saw that the two Great Walls he passed before were right at his feet. They were like two rings protecting the Jinshan Temple.

‘Brother Hongwu! ’ Perhaps to compensate for not being able to answer Du Long’s question just now, General Liu actually took the initiative to introduce through spiritual consciousness: ‘From here all the way up is the area where 360 ​​elders live! ’

‘The elders are placed in mansions of different heights based on their ranking. The higher the ranking, the higher the living area, and the area of ​​the mansion is larger and more luxurious! ’

‘See that area up there? ! There are only eight mansions where the eight guardians live! ’

‘Also, the top area is divided into two parts, each belonging to the family of the Saint Son and Saint Daughter. There is also a Ten Thousand Blades Golden Mountain between the two families. Above the Ten Thousand Blades Golden Mountain is the core area of ​​the temple! ’

Looking along the direction pointed by General Liu, Du Long had a preliminary understanding of the Jinshan Temple in front of him. It was really hierarchical!

‘Brother Hongwu! As long as you can successfully advance to become an elder in the temple, you will be able to live in the area where the elders live. From then on, except for a few areas inside the temple, you can have unimpeded access! ’

‘At that time, I will have to salute Brother Hongwu when I see him! ’

‘General Liu is serious! ’ Du Long shook his head and smiled bitterly: ‘We are still far away from the position of elder now! Even if I can successfully advance to the rank of temple elder, General Liu doesn’t need to be so alienated from my brother! ’

'hehe! Based on your performance in the City Lord Contest, if it weren't for the Holy Son's secret tricks, the position of elder would definitely be considered a sure thing for Brother Kai Hongwu! ’ General Liu shook his head and said with a bitter smile.

While chatting in secret, they quickly passed through the elders' residential area, the protector's residential area, and the Holy Son and Saint Daughter's territory at the top, and finally arrived outside the core temple gate of the Jinshan Temple.

Standing here is facing the Jinshan Temple. Behind the temple is the Ten Thousand Blades Jinshan, while Du Long and others are standing in the small square at the entrance of the temple.

You can see that on the left side of the square is the continuous building complex where the Holy Son family lives, and on the right side is the building complex where the Holy Virgin family lives.

At this time, thousands of people were sitting outside the temple on the stepped seats on both sides of the temple square. After seeing Du Long and his party arriving, they all turned to look over.

"Look, look! That man in golden armor is City Lord Hongwu, the first place winner in this year's City Lord Competition!"

"Haha! Isn't he the city lord who came to die?! With Elder Budi here, unless he gives up the fight for the elder position, he will definitely die!"

"That's right! I guess he just came here for a formality. He definitely didn't dare to participate in the elder promotion competition. In the end, he just rolled down the mountain in despair!"

"Hahaha..."

As soon as Du Long appeared, a burst of sarcastic comments immediately erupted from the seats on the left side of the square.

Most of the people sitting on this side were children of the Holy Son family or the families of their elders. Naturally, they would not have anything nice to say about Du Long, the number one city lord in the hostile camp.

Du Long glanced at this group of people with sharp eyes, and he could see that although there were many sixth-level God Emperors among them, most of them were just playboys who were not very strong.

This group of dandy boys seemed to deliberately want to embarrass Du Long. When they spoke, they did not use the method of spiritual transmission at all, but directly made false remarks openly and openly!

As a strong man at the peak of six-star realm, Du Long could naturally hear the conversation between them immediately, and he also understood in his heart that this was the Holy Son's side putting pressure on him.

Through moral kidnapping, he forced himself to accept the challenge, instead of choosing to give up the Elder Promotion Competition without dignity, and then roll down the Jinshan Temple in despair!

"Old Liu! Bring them both over here quickly!"

A shout came from the crowd on the right side of the square. General Liu immediately pulled Du Long and said, "Let's go! Don't be affected by those words. Let's go over there and rest for a while."

"Um!"

Du Long nodded slightly and then followed General Liu to the seats on the right side of the square. The golden-armored God Emperor who brought them up actually followed him directly and had no intention of leaving.

It seems that he should also see this elder promotion match with his own eyes.

Inside the Jinshan Temple!

The Holy Son and Holy Lady, plus the eight guardians, and 360 elders gathered together!

"Hmph! We actually let Elder Budi, who is ranked 271st, parachute down. Can you look a little more ugly?!" In the hall, the angry shouts of the protector Zhao Pojun suddenly sounded.

"As long as you don't violate the rules that count down to one hundred or more, does Guardian Zhao still want to change the rules of the temple?!" A strange voice sounded immediately, and it was a gray-robed Guardian who retorted.

"I think this rule is unfair and should have been changed a long time ago!" Zhao Pojun continued angrily.

"Want to change?!" The old guardian in gray robe said with disdain: "You want to change it as you say?! If you want to change it, you have to go through the vote of everyone here!"

Then Zhao Pojun was choked, his face turned red and he roared: "Vote, just vote! Such unfair rules should have been amended long ago!"

"Haha!" The Holy Son, who had been sitting next to the Holy Girl, sneered: "Since Protector Zhao Pojun has put forward the motion, let's vote on the matter immediately so as not to affect the next Elder Promotion Competition. After all, time is limited. its not right?!"

As soon as the Holy Son spoke, there was a burst of cheers on the scene. The Holy Girl and the Great Protector Ge Qiu looked at each other, and they both saw a hint of helplessness and bitterness in each other's eyes.

The voting was quickly carried out in the hall. The method of voting was very simple. All you had to do was raise your hands if you agreed with Zhao Pojun's motion.

Looking around, out of a total of 370 people, only 184 raised their hands, and a full 186 did not raise their hands.

"Okay! After the voting results, the motion proposed by Protector Zhao Pojun failed. All the contestants outside have arrived. Everyone, let's go out together!" The Son directly announced the result as a winner.

We can see that everyone in the Holy Son's camp is smiling, and the Saint's face is naturally extremely ugly. This is not the first time this has happened.

The temple implements a voting system. If important matters cannot be decided, this highest-level voting mechanism will be used to solve the problem.

Because the number of votes controlled by the Saintess camp was reduced by two votes, this has also led to a series of hidden losses in many matters in recent years.

Therefore, both the Holy Son and the Holy Lady attach great importance to this elder promotion competition.

One side wants to change the unfavorable situation through this competition, but the other side wants to deepen its own favorable situation.

Boom, boom, boom. . .

Waves of clear bells rang across the sky above the temple, and the originally noisy square immediately fell silent. Everyone turned to look at the temple gate with excitement.

Under the leadership of the Holy Son and the Holy Lady, a group of more than 300 people from the temple's upper echelons filed out, and then took their seats at the entrance of the temple.

Du Long felt extremely keenly that something was wrong with the atmosphere among the temple's senior officials. He could see that Zhao Pojun and others looked not very good, while on the contrary, Shengzi and others acted arrogantly.

‘General Liu! Why do I feel that the faces of Protector Zhao and the others are a little ugly? ! ’

'hehe! it's common! It must have just gone through another round of voting, right? ! ’

'vote? ! ’

‘That’s it. . . ’

Under General Liu's explanation, Du Long finally had some understanding of the current situation between the two camps. He immediately shook his head and said with a bitter smile: 'What kind of bullshit voting method is this? ! If there are only two camps, there is no way to guarantee fairness and justice. There should be at least three camps! ’

‘Three camps? ! ’ General Liu said with astonishment on his face: ‘Can the three camps guarantee fairness and justice? ! ’

‘It will definitely be better than the two camps! ’ Du Long explained without hesitation: ‘In the case of three different camps, when a certain rule is introduced, even if two of the camps fight for personal gain, at least there will be a third party to buffer it! ’

‘Even if three camps cannot guarantee absolute fairness, at least it is better than having only two camps, right? ! When there are two camps, once one side wins in terms of strength, the other side will have no say at all! ’
