The Strongest War God

In other words, of the benefits gained by martial artists in the ruins, three-tenths must be given to Old Devil Yanagi! Otherwise, they couldn’t even enter the ruins.

So, the seventy-two giants in the South Pole all held a large amount of martial art resources in their hands. Each one was extremely wealthy!

Things that ordinary martial artists sought in vain were quite common here.

This was a paradise for martial artists.

A hell for ordinary people.

If ordinary people came here, there would be no way out.

The leader of the first team frowned on the side and asked, “Is this your first time here?”

Braydon Neal nodded lightly, not afraid of these people bullying him.

The team leader could only patiently ask, “Is it your first time entering the 14th ruin or your first time in the South Pole?”

“First time for both.”

Braydon explained the situation.

The team leader asked again, “Are you from Hansworth?”

Braydon nodded again.

The team leader became more enthusiastic, saying, “Aside from today, I haven’t seen any new martial artists from Hansworth for many years. My name is Kashton Zaleski. I used to serve in the royal guards in the capital. Later, I received a secret order and came here.”

“The thirty thousand royal guards in the capital were actually transferred here.”

Braydon thoughtfully.

Back then, when he was in the No. 8 Courtyard in the capital, he asked about the whereabouts of the thirty thousand royal guards.

However, he didn’t expect that the royal guards from that year was secretly transferred here.

Team leader Kashton was somewhat surprised, “Brother, what is your name, and do you know anyone in the royal guards?”

“The commander of the royal guards, Tatum Munoz, is an old subordinate of the teacher. He comes from the Northern Army.”

Braydon smiled faintly and walked toward the city gate.

Kashton and his team of eight were stunned.

When they came back to their senses.

Kashton exclaimed, “Are you…”

“My surname is Neal, and my given name is Braydon.”

Braydon did not turn around, continuing to move forward.

Kashton’s face turned pale, cold sweat poured out, and he immediately saluted and shouted, “Kashton Zaleski of the royal guards greets His Royal Highness!”

The royal guards stationed in the capital had all heard of Braydon’s name.

The young Martial Emperor, Braydon Neal!

Even though the royal guards were stationed here, they still remembered this name.

At the next moment.

The black city gate slowly opened.

Accompanied by a powerful and vigorous voice that said, “Commander of the royal guards, Tatum Munoz, greets His Royal Highness!”

A middle-aged man in a black suit, wearing black armor, walked out from the city.

He was Tatum.

A thousand elite royal guards followed behind him.

Tatum knelt on one knee and shouted loudly, “The 14th ancient city’s Commander Tatum Munoz pays his respect to the young master!”

Once again, he saluted.

He was an old subordinate of Finley Yanagi and came from the Northern Army.

Calling Braydon a young master was completely appropriate.

Braydon looked at him and said softly, “Uncle Tatum, long time no see.”

“Ten years ago, we followed the master and came to the South Pole to enter the 14th ruin. Now that I see the young master all grown up, I am willing to follow him to the death with no regrets!”

Tatum’s eyes flashed with determination.

Braydon was the military commander of the Northern Army.

Men with heroic aspirations from the Northern Army would follow him to the death.

Braydon asked softly, “Where are Jonah and the others?”

“Lord Colton and the others are in the former residence of the master.”

This arrangement was perfectly fine.

The Northern Army sons were all students of Old Devil Yanagi, so them living in the yard left by the teacher was something no one could find fault with it.

Braydon asked Tatum to take him there.

In this ancient city, there was a total of seven main streets, each street being 21 meters wide, and forty-nine small streets, each street being 10 meters wide.

Both sides of the streets were lined with various shops, and many martial artists came and went, dressed in various styles, almost all having a retro feel.

Tatum introduced on the side, “After the various major ruins in the South Pole had been discovered and opened in the past, these ancient cities were built. At that time, the ground was full of bones, and there were no living people. The master brought the royal guards from the capital and stationed us here. With the influx of external martial artists, it gradually developed.”

“Is the owner of the 14th ancient city Teacher?”

Braydon asked lightly.

Tatum nodded and said, “Yes, the seventy-two giants in the South Pole each have a ruin site and also an ancient city in the ruins, providing them with a continuous source of resources. It is enough to support a super force. However, the master uses the resources obtained on our royal guard brothers.”

Braydon has already noticed that the current royal guards from the capital were far from what they used to be.

The commander of the royal guards, Tatum, was already a supreme pinnacle!

Braydon stopped and looked at him, smiling lightly. “Did the teacher pass on the Supreme Forbidden Art to you?”

“It was passed on to me ten years ago. Master said that the 14th ancient city needs someone at the supreme pinnacle realm to preside over the overall situation. The eight major forces followed Master and were unwilling to stay in the city for a long time.”

Tatum explained the reason.

As Braydon walked along the street, he saw that there were probably thousands of shops on the main street, selling various goods.

This was just one main street, and there were six other main streets.

These shops were all owned by Old Devil Yanagi!

Shops could also be sold, but they required a large number of spirit stones, so many forces would not buy them.

Because this city was dangerous.

Once the city was destroyed, people would die, and all the investment would turn into nothing.

Generally, no one bought any shops and would only rent them.

The rental fee for the shops in the 14th ancient city was astronomical.

In addition to these shops, each store needed to hand in twenty percent of its turnover every month.

At the same time, for external martial artists entering the 14th ruin, thirty percent of any gains obtained here must be handed over.

It was equivalent to taxation.

The one who formulated these rules was Old Devil Yanagi.

Because he was a giant and controlled the 14th ruin.

At the same time, such rules were not only present in the 14th ruin, but also existed in other ruin sites.

Tatum said in a low voice, “For martial artists in the 14th ancient city, we must provide protection for them. At the same time, private fights are strictly prohibited in the city. If there is a crisis in the ancient city, such as a powerful fierce beast attacking, we must fight until the last moment. We can only retreat when all martial artists have safely retreated.”

Braydon understood.

The daily protection and defense against dangers of this city were all their responsibility.

For external martial artists entering the ruins, thirty percent of all the gains obtained must be handed.

Tatum continued, “Now that the Young Master has arrived, Master has already instructed that this ancient city is fully handed over to you. Consider it as a belated coming-of-age gift.”

Braydon’s mouth twitched slightly.

This gift was undeniably significant.

Other people’s coming-of-age gifts were precious treasures or ornaments, but Braydon’s coming-of-age gift was a city!

A city that symbolized status and wealth!

Braydon shook his head lightly and said, “In the outside world, I am entangled in the worldly affairs, unable to escape from various trivial matters. Now that I have come to the South Pole and isolated from the world, I don’t want to get involved in too many things. I need time to cultivate. The operation of the 14th ancient city should still be handled by you.”

“Yes, sir!”

Tatum bowed and took the order.
