Chapter 245
Wow!
My ears are deafened by the tremendous cheers.
Tens of thousands of Muslims.
Having gathered here to attend the Seongra Grand Banquet with a dream of fortune, they let out endless cheers.
The noise that seemed like it would never end subsided as soon as Pope Goengdo raised his hand.
In his hand was the symbol of a thousand years of Shaolin, the chrysanthemum buljang. Shaolin Temple, the North Head of Mt. People shut their mouths at that mighty authority.
Soon, the old monk’s voice filled with profound gongpower spread out.
“Binseung often looks up at the sky. I have seen, read, and watched countless stars for a long time.”
I once heard
It is said that the biggest reason why King Goengdo became the master of Shaolin was not because of his high martial arts skills, but because of his knowledge and wit.
“Seongra Daeyeon. If you want to be the brightest star at this banquet, think brightly and act brightly.”
After a moment of silence, a short word was added.
“It survives in the dark.”
The shorter the congratulations, the better. It would be better if it was permeated with vertigo as if it were something mysterious, and even more so if the person who said it was the master of Shaolin Temple.
Cheers and applause broke out again.
“Waaaaaa!”
The sight suddenly made me curious. Of the tens of thousands of people gathered here, how many would have understood the meaning of that word just now?
Probably one tenth, no, not even one hundredth.
But i know What does the word awesome mean?
‘Amcheon.’
The training in Yeolhwa-dong was more rigorous than everything I’ve done so far.
The appearance of the Jeokcheongang urging me every day seemed impatient and impatient.
At first, I thought it was because of old age.
However, soon after, the story that Jeokcheongang brought out after much thought was surprising. Only then could I understand his impatience.
Darkness, a mighty enemy whose true nature has not yet been fully revealed.
‘We don’t have much time. Always train and prepare. That’s the best you can do.’
I looked at the old man standing to the right of the sword.
The old man, Jeokcheon-gang, who exuded a tremendous presence despite his small body, found a clear difference and grinned at me.
He looked noticeably older than a year ago. It was at that time that his heart was pounding unbeknownst to me.
– Know that if you don’t win, you will die.
“……”
– In particular, if you meet someone who uses the surname Pang, you will be fooled. Break and tear!
A cold wind blew through my throbbing chest.
After recovering completely with one shot of the King of Fire’s motion sickness medicine, I secretly avoided his gaze.
I was full of confidence until I came, but when I personally checked the huge number of unmanned soldiers, I thought it would be difficult to guarantee victory.
‘Let’s not answer. If I give a definite answer and then lose, I will get even more bitter.’
Anyway, since the opening speech is over, the preliminaries will proceed.
Like a salmon running upside down in a flowing river, I found a familiar face as I walked backward through the crowd of unmanned people.
“uh?”
what’s that guy’s name?
Oh yeah. He was said to be the Zhonglichu of Yunnan. He even had a self-made nickname called Rising Sword.
I wondered if he had come all this way from a small village, but it seemed that he was also attending the Seongra Daeyeon.
‘If it’s that level of skill, it’ll go up quite a bit.’
I was going to pretend to be an egg, but I gave up because I thought it would be annoying.
Instead, he greeted the guy who was standing around and looking around inaudible.
‘Yes, do your best.’
If possible, I pray that you will not meet me.
“I like bimu. There are winners and losers, no draws. How clear is this?”
The middle-aged man muttered in a relaxed voice.
His nose was draped with an item called glasses brought in from the West Station, and the price was very expensive, befitting a mysterious function that made objects appear many times larger.
“So people bet you and me. Because the results are certain.”
One of the things that cannot be left out at Seongra Daeyeon is gambling.
Seongra Daeyeon was the banquet of the world’s Murim people, and at the same time the best part of the world’s gambling world, because of hundreds of dances, starting from the preliminaries to filter out the lower level among tens of thousands of applicants and ending with the finals.
“So, who are you going to pay for?”
The bald man in front of the middle-aged man asked. Even if you look at it, it gave the impression that you were stepping into the dark, but your attitude was polite.
“Your temper is still impatient.”
“It’s because there are a lot of backlogged guests.”
“Okay. So let’s see… … “
The middle-aged man, who had been resting for a while, took out a bag from his bosom and threw it away.
Unable to overcome the weight, the entrance to the pouch opened, and the sparkling silver treasures spilled out onto the table.
“Thousands of hermits to Cheolsu Shinryong of the Yangtze River Waterway Alliance.”
“……!”
It’s a huge sum indeed.
What’s more, the preliminaries haven’t even started yet.
Indeed, the distribution of the middle-aged man in front of him was different.
The bald man’s eyelids trembled as he looked at Eun Won-bo.
“Are you betting on the victory of the Iron Dragon?”

“you’re welcome. Although Cheolsu Shinryong is one of the Ten Bongryongs, he’s still not that good. I wonder if that master, the King of the Seas, would know.”
“if……?”
“I’ll bet on passing this qualifying round as the top scorer.”
“Mmm.”
The bald man let out a sigh.
Seongra Daeyeon’s preliminaries are so-called ‘filters’. This is because there are so many applicants that we have to pick out those below the standard.
Since tens of thousands of applicants are screened, of course there are countless cases.
Of course, the odds will be huge as well.
“It is different from what you said earlier.”
“What do you mean?”
“Didn’t you say that the matchmaking was good? There are only winners and losers, so the results are clear.”
“As expected, you shouldn’t gamble.”
The middle-aged man chuckled.
“That’s what third-rate gamblers do. All or nothing, one of the two wins anyway, so the wealth you can earn is fixed. But who am I?”
“You are Dogon.”
“That’s why I like bimu. People want to take the easy way, not the hard way.”
”ah.”
A gambler among gamblers. A gambler who has reached the pinnacle is called a Dogon.
The middle-aged man in front of him had already brought the result derived after careful investigation and calculation.
The bald man bowed in respect.
“I learned a lot. Kwak Dae-hyeop.”
“If you have learned, you will have to pay the tuition.”
“What do you want?”
“Keep your mouth shut. Just like you’ve been up until now.”
“of course.”
“Then that’s it. Let’s see… the preliminaries must have started soon. I’ll come over for a drink and get some money.”
Of course, that confidence that it will fit your prediction.
Indeed, it is Dogon.
The middle-aged man with his glasses up left.
A swordsman guarding the door asked sneakily with a curious look on his face.
“boss. Who is that person?”
“That man? Dogon.”
“Hey, Dogon!”
“That’s one of the best Dogons in the world.”
“That, is that enough?”
“There are only three legendary Dogons.”
The bald man spread three fingers.
“I’m hungry for Sichuan. Go to Guangdong. And last.”
One last finger folded.
“Continentally, that man. This is Kwak Cheol-yong.”
“Kwak Cheol-yong… … !”
“So go and watch Cheolsu Shinryong. Come to think of it, newcomers are arrogant.”
f*ck!
The bald man kicked the swordsman in the shin.
After a while, he greeted the next guest. It was a somewhat eccentric guest who wore a mask up to his nose.
“Where will you live?”
“Is this a secret?”
The masked man asked in a worried voice.
The fact that he flinched like a person who was hit every time he had a chance, he showed signs of being third-rate.
‘I wonder where I was beaten, my eyes are red. Well, it’s me, as long as I get the money.’
A soft smile formed on the bald man’s lips.
It was his commercial smile that came out automatically when he saw Hogu.
“Of course. I want you to tell me.”
The masked man took out his front bag while checking his eyes.
“A hundred hermits for Shanseo Jamryong Jin Tae-gyeong to pass the preliminaries first.”

“From there to here. Follow me.”
Seongra Daeyeon’s preliminaries have a large number of participants, so only the supervisors are divided into hundreds of people.
Hundreds of applicants followed the supervisor in charge. Of course, I am included in it.
‘That’s a lot.’
Not only there were many, but they were also diverse. Skinny, fat, fluffy youngsters, and ronin who seemed to have gone through all of the prenatal battles. She had an eye-catching woman and a sleek handsome man.
The word “white people” is perfect.
Among them, Geohan, who looked like a real man at first glance, stood out. Looking at her at eye level, she seems to be a head taller than me.
‘Shiva, is this the continent or Norway?’
He was over two meters tall and had a salmon pierced by a harpoon tattooed on his forearm, which was swollen with muscle.
Its appearance is strangely Western, to the point where I doubt whether it is a real Norwegian.
I glanced sideways and then our eyes met.
“……”
“……”
I carefully opened my mouth.
“Ah, I’m fine thank you. Ann U?”
“……?”
This isn’t it. What was it?
When I was in elementary school, I was so nervous that I couldn’t speak well because I had finally given up on the red pen workbook.
“ah! Where are you from?”
Norway replied.
“f*ck you. What are you doing?”
“Oh, sorry.”
“You bastard, are you arguing with me right now?”
Exciting twin baths and people’s eyes fly in and stick to them.
As I was about to reply, the supervisor shouted in a stern voice.
“If you cause problems, you will be forcibly eliminated!”
Norway, who had been smacking like a salmon, glared at me.
It is a bonus to have a rough momentum like the blade of a harpoon and a whole tone full of murder.
– I will make you regret it.
see what is ugly A descendant of the Vikings.
‘But what? It’s true that I did something wrong.’
I lowered my head and started walking again. I heard a loud snort behind me, but I pretended not to hear it.
‘But it’s pretty strong.’
He looked like he was in his twenties, but the thought of meeting a strong man right from the start made a part of his heart thump.
‘As expected, the world is wide.’
If this is the case from the preliminaries, real monsters may emerge in the finals. I made up my mind thinking about Jeokcheongang’s warning.
* * *
“The first thing to be judged is Kwon Gak.”
The place he followed the supervisor to was an unknown cliff.
I was able to find out how the screening would take place without having to ask.
Because others were watching the screening first.
Puck! Crunchy!
”Keah!”
One idiot with a broken wrist rolled on the ground. The supervisor sighed and broke one of the bamboo tickets.
“The jangyu of the Phalaenopsis door, the dropout. next!”
Then, the next soldier came out and threw one book at the cliff.
thud!
At least, this unmanned man is of a first-class level. Still, he knew that he would strike with power.
Distinct marks were carved on the tightly packed cliffs of half-mixed rock and soil.
The supervisor who measured the depth and breadth nodded.
“Sudangmun’s high payment, passed. next!”
Those who passed were sidelined, and third-rate fighters with weak fists or who suffered from a single punch fell out.
“You know, because you’ve seen it roughly, but it’s like this. So let’s start too. Well then, let’s see…”
The supervisor pulled out a bamboo table and held it up. And the name that comes out.
“Jin Tae-gyeong of Taewon Jinga.”
A system notification rang out as people stared at me.
belt ring.
– The quest [Seongra Daeyeon] has been created.
