In the following period of time, a large number of guests arrived one after another.

These guests were all high-ranking family leaders in Nottingham.

Suddenly, all the important figures of Nottingham City gathered in the bustling courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion.

This celebratory banquet at the city lord's mansion was truly a rare grand event in Nottingham.

Nottingham has not seen such a grand event for many years.

Throughout the entire city of Nottingham, there is only one person qualified to gather so many powerful individuals.

It was none other than City Lord Xiao, who was at the fourth level of the Soul Master realm.

"hehe."

Looking at the numerous guests filling the courtyard, the smug and proud smile on Lord Xiao's face grew even stronger.

In the entire city of Nottingham, there is no one else besides Lord Xiao who can command such influence.

As a fourth-ring Soul Master, he is undoubtedly the strongest person in Notting City.

“Notting City is the private territory of my Xiao family. From today onwards, this concept will become a consensus in the hearts of hundreds of thousands of people in Notting City.”

"Then, by gathering all the resources of Notting City, I can travel a long distance within the fourth-ring Soul Sect realm."

"I even had the chance to glimpse the realm of a fifth-ring Soul King!"

As he thought of this, a flame called ambition began to burn fiercely in Lord Xiao's eyes.

He was already getting impatient.

The entire city of Nottingham has been regarded as his own possession by Lord Xiao.

After a full hour, the number of guests entering from the main gate of the city lord's mansion gradually decreased.

"hehe."

The smile on Lord Xiao's face finally bloomed like a chrysanthemum after hearing the final announcement.

Then, Lord Xiao, who was sitting upright in the wooden chair, slowly stood up.

Then, Lord Xiao gave a wink to the chief steward standing to the side.

The elderly butler, his eyes slightly cloudy, glanced around at the representatives of the various factions in the courtyard.

Then, the old butler chuckled and pressed his hand down.

. . . . . . . .

P.S.: Thank you to "The Secret That Cannot Be Told" for the 100 book coins! Thank you to "Following Through Wind and Rain" for the 100 book coins!

The thousands of guests, who were originally making a great commotion, seemed to receive a command after seeing the gesture from the old steward of the city lord's mansion.

Immediately, they swallowed back the words they were about to say.

No one dared to utter another word.

At this moment, the banquet courtyard of the city lord's mansion fell into a deathly silence.

The next second, all sorts of different gazes shifted to the old steward of the city lord's mansion.

The once bustling and noisy courtyard fell silent in just a few seconds because of a casual gesture from the old housekeeper.

This demonstrates just how powerful Lord Xiao's influence has become.

After all, even an elderly steward in the city lord's mansion commands the utmost respect and deference from the top figures in Notting City.

Lord Xiao, standing on the high platform, nodded with satisfaction at the reactions of the guests in the courtyard.

He was very pleased with his power.

Then, Lord Xiao gave a wink to the old steward beside him, indicating that the celebration banquet could officially begin.

"Thank you all very much for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend this celebratory banquet at the City Lord's Mansion."

"I won't say anything more. This banquet will now officially begin."

"The first part: the chanting ceremony!"

Seeing the atmosphere in the courtyard gradually quiet down, the chief steward of the city lord's mansion stroked his long, white beard and slowly spoke.

In Nottingham, families and powerful groups typically include a banquet ceremony when hosting formal banquets.

Moreover, the banquet ceremony is the first part of the banquet.

This is a tradition in Nottingham.

In fact, many places in the Douluo Continent have a banquet ceremony with singing and chanting.

What is meant by chanting etiquette at a banquet?

The guests attending the banquet presented their carefully prepared gifts to the organizers.

During the gift-giving segment of the banquet, the guest whose gift is the most valuable will attract the most attention from the banquet organizers.

Therefore, the various forces and families attending the banquet would go to great lengths to obtain gifts.

Gifts worth thousands, or even tens of thousands of gold soul coins, often appear during the banquet's gift-giving segment, giving other guests a real eye-opener.

Therefore, the ritual singing at the banquet has become one of the most important parts of the banquet.

. . . . . .

At this moment, the banquet at the City Lord's Mansion also began with the ceremony of announcing the start of the banquet.

The guests below the platform all had excited expressions on their faces.

You should know that in order to win the favor of City Lord Xiao and get closer to him, these guests have gone to great lengths to prepare many gifts.

They were all confident that their gifts would outshine those of the other guests and become the highlight of the celebration.

"Hehe, this time the one that has attracted the most attention from City Lord Xiao is definitely my Chen family. The gift I prepared is worth more than three thousand gold soul coins!"

“I feel my gift is superior because it’s worth four thousand gold soul coins, which is one thousand gold soul coins more expensive than yours!”

"Hmph, the gift I prepared is the most precious."

These guests had already begun to subtly compete with each other.

Just as the old steward of the city lord's mansion finished speaking, the many guests in the courtyard were preparing to announce their gifts in order of seating.

"boom!"

The next moment, in this courtyard that gathered representatives of all the families and forces in Notting City, whether it was the many guests who came to the banquet or the people from the city lord's mansion who were hosting the banquet, everyone was present.

They all witnessed a scene they would never forget in their lifetime.

Then, a huge fire dragon, about a hundred meters long and wreathed in endless flames, leaped down from the distant sky.

"Yan!"

A resounding dragon's roar echoed throughout the entire world.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

The powerful aura emanating from this enormous fire dragon caused the guests in the banquet courtyard to change their expressions upon sensing it.

Even the city lord Xiao, who was on the high platform, became more solemn when he saw the huge fire dragon.

The power of this fiery dragon is immense.

Under the oppressive power of the fiery dragon, everyone felt like a lowly, insignificant ant.

The two are simply incomparable!

Immediately afterwards, a series of uncontrollable exclamations of amazement echoed from the crowd in the banquet courtyard.

"What exactly is this enormous fire dragon? Could it be a soul beast?"

"But when did a fire dragon spirit beast appear around Notting City? I've never heard of it before."

"It's terrifying! I feel like that giant fire dragon could easily kill me, a second-ring Great Soul Master, with just a flick of its claw!"

Just as everyone present was marveling at the power of the fire dragon.

The next second, the scene that came into their view made them widen their eyes in shock.

The words these people were saying came to an abrupt halt, as if an invisible, intangible hand had grabbed their necks.

Even if they had a thousand words they wanted to say, they could only swallow them back down, mixed with their saliva.

The reason these people were so horrified was that the enormous fire dragon hovered in mid-air for a moment.

It suddenly swooped down and flew directly towards the banquet courtyard.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

The fiery dragon that swooped down into the courtyard hovered in the center before slowly dissipating.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

As the enormous fire dragon slowly dissipated, what caught the astonished eyes of everyone present were two extremely tall figures.

After seeing the fire dragon up close, the guests in the courtyard immediately realized that the giant fire dragon was not the soul beast they had thought it to be.

There was no special aura of a soul beast.

"That enormous fire dragon, isn't a soul beast? Or is it the martial soul of one of these two people?"

"A fire-type divine dragon martial soul? I know a little about many martial souls in the Douluo Continent, but how come I've never heard of this kind of martial soul?"
