Chapter 987: 987
Cyan stone slabs filled the entire square . Maria exerted a little force to stomp down a few times, only to realize that they were extremely sturdy . To think that they did not even budge from her stomps and were even sending out a faint backlash . . .
Maria frowned as she looked at the weird cyan stone slabs under her feet and thought, 'What sturdy stone slabs . It seems that this square has also been specially modified to accommodate these experts . '
She raised her head and saw that there were densely-packed crowds everywhere in the square . This was a rare sight on usual days . Second transition Knights who could hold firm in an area kept gushing out like chives .
Even Demigods who could rule over an area could be seen everywhere . They were like cabbages that could be found at the roadside .
People who had not even reached the second transition could not even enter and could only stand outside the square . Maria glanced around and saw that many buildings around the square had been taken up by countless Knights . Densely-packed crowds squeezed there as they watched the situation on the square .
Despite the fact that there were so many experts, no one was causing any trouble .
These experts gathered together in their own groups . Most often, they would be a group of experts from the same area or faction . There were also experts who had contradictions and feuds who were quarreling or cursing each other, but no one got into any fights .
Even the cultivators who could start fighting over a casual bump or glare were all very well-behaved, squeezing in the square like sardines in a can .
This was all because of the reputation of the number one expert in the south—Sword Overlord Fang Xingjian .
Maria could see clearly that there were many small platforms set up in the square, and many men and women wearing golden-hemmed long robes who were seated there . Their sharp gazes would occasionally sweep out toward the noisiest spot in the square .
Wherever their gaze swept by, silence would fill up the place like the winter cicadas .
As if sensing Maria's curious gaze, a man with platinum-colored hair next to her said in a soft voice, "Those are people from the East Military Execution Order . These people are extremely vicious and brutal . They have Tyrant and the Sword Overlord backing them up, and ordinary Demigods have to run after seeing them . Even Divine level experts have to show them some respect . "
Maria got a shock from hearing that . She had not expected that these people would be the infamous East Military Execution Order who had annihilated countless factions and clans .
She looked toward the platinum-haired next to her and said, "Hello, you are?"
"I'm Chris from the northern Holy Scriptures Hall," the man said with a smile . Revealing a face that could mesmerize countless young ladies, he looked at Maria and remarked, "Miss looks like you have a polished cultivation and you're very spirited . You must also be from some great faction as well?"
Maria gave it some thought before saying, "I come from the Myriad Stars Mountain . "
"Oh, you're learning under the Astral Ancestor . " Holy Scriptures Hall's Chris revealed an expression to say he understood, then he nodded before leaving .
Maria knew that the Holy Scriptures Hall was a faction that was under the the Church of Universal Truth's influence . They were naturally not considered to be on the same frequency with the Empire's factions .
She then followed the crowd and headed to the center of the square . Although most of the experts in the square and even some Demigods and Divine level experts could only stand amongst the crowd, there was still a series of floating stone platforms circling around the center of the square and floating in the sky . These stone platforms had been prepared for some major influences .
Amongst the five Divine level experts under Fang Xingjian, the Astral Ancestor's Myriad Stars Palace was considered one of them . As a disciple of the Myriad Stars Palace, she could naturally attempt to head up there as well .
As she leaped gently onto the platform, a young man and a young woman quickly came up to her . One of them asked, "Younger Martial Sister? Where have you been during this period of time? Why haven't you been contacting us?"
Maria said a little awkwardly, "I went for an adventure in some relics with someone else and ended up getting lost inside . However, I managed to have a fortunate encounter from it . "
