Urban's Fury: The War Dragon God-Chapter 1570: Competing for the Oiran

Having reached a consensus, Li Feng was in no hurry to visit White Tiger Avenue, mingling with the three women among the crowd beside the street.

The Flowers Pavilion's Oiran competition has its own set of rules, and this street parade is just one of the segments.

Ran Yue, having stayed in West City for two years, had some knowledge about this Oiran competition.

"This Oiran parade is merely an appetizer for the battle for Oiran, mainly to let everyone admire the elegance of the top candidates. Following this is the key part of the contest, seizing the title."

"Oh?"

West City White Tiger Square.

This White Tiger Square is located at the starting point of White Tiger Avenue, also the center of West City. The wide square could easily accommodate a hundred thousand people.

The ten flower carts from the Flowers Pavilion gradually arrived at the square, which was already overflowing with people by now.

"This Oiran contest is indeed getting more lively every year."

High above the square, a few young lords stood on a few Flying Swords, looking down at the bustling scene below.

"Though the Ninth Ring of West City usually feels like a Ghost, at this time every year, it becomes a grand spectacle. Such scenes are unseen even in the Upper Three Rings."

"Hmph, I don't know why you all have so much time on your hands; do you still lack women?" A cold-faced young man beside them seemed to be quite dismissive.

"Yunge, you don't understand. The flowers at home can't compare to the wild ones in terms of fragrance. Besides, for people like us, marriage is out of our hands. It's merely an alliance between families. How many women you marry will truly win your heart?"

"Not to mention serving you tea or asking after you, it's good enough if she's not scowling at you. You only know cultivation, and you're about to turn to stone. We brought you here today to change your mindset."

"Right, now that you're here, you wouldn't be afraid of your fiancée, would you?"

A young man beside him smiled at Xuanyuan Yunge.

"Indeed, Yunge's fiancée is the young lady of the Mi family, who has awakened the Phoenix Bloodline, a prodigy who broke the Golden Core at ten. Whoever marries her is no less than Alexander."

"Hmph."

Xuanyuan Yunge snorted coldly.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about that Mi family girl today. Look, the flower cart seems to be approaching. Quick, see the one dancing gracefully on the big drum; she's this year's popular candidate for the title, Fairy Chi Lian."

"How is she? Not bad, right?"

"This Fairy Chi Lian isn't just skilled in singing and dancing; it's said her strength has reached the False Core Realm, and she's cultivating the Fire Element Profound Level Cultivation Technique, the Nine Layers Burning Sky Technique."

"Hmph, this Fairy Chi Lian is good, but she's far behind Nine Fox Mingxin."

The group began to argue outright.

"Alright, since you all disagree, why not settle it in person? Whoever's supported candidate wins the title will outshine the others."

"I'm all for it."

"Hey, I won't hold back."

"Then let's see the real skills at play."

The two exchanged glances, their eyes sparking with fire. Seeing the two embroiled in conflict, even threatening to fight, Xuanyuan Yunge frowned.

Obviously, he felt speechless about the idea of fighting over a few women.

The young man in green, Ji Wuyang, turned to Xuanyuan Yunge, who looked puzzled, and explained with a slight smile.

"The Oiran title contest at the Flowers Pavilion is quite interesting, as you've seen. There are ten flower carts here, meaning ten candidates. The goal is to choose one from these candidates to be the Oiran."

"Oh."

Xuanyuan Yunge didn't seem interested.

Yet Ji Wuyang continued, "You wouldn't think that the Oiran contest is about showing off looks and capturing attention to see who's the most popular, would you?"

"Isn't it?"

Xuanyuan Yunge asked.

Ji Wuyang chuckled, "If it were such a tasteless way of winning, we wouldn't have sneaked out to join the fun."

"The Oiran contest at the Flowers Pavilion isn't about looks; it's all about strength."

"About strength? Are you saying later they'll put on fighters to compete for first place?"

Are so many people here to watch a few women fight?

Ji Wuyang was momentarily speechless, then said, "Of course not. If it were just that, it wouldn't be much fun."

"The most important aspect of the Oiran contest is participation. It would be quite dull if it were just watching them fight."

"To be frank, there will be a segment where the ten candidates will choose their Guardian Angel."

"Guardian Angel?"

Li Feng looked at Ran Yue in surprise, and Ran Yue nodded: "The Oiran contest, the parade is just the first part. The second part is choosing the Guardian Angel. Once the Guardian Angel is selected, the next part of the contest will proceed."

Li Feng squinted his eyes; the Guardian Angel, quite interesting.

"If one could be chosen as a Guardian Angel, there would be an opportunity to get close to Lin Luoyin."

"Hmph, I bet it won't be that easy!" Xiao Luobing snorted through her dainty nose. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Ran Yue nodded, saying, "Indeed, it isn't easy. According to previous rules, each candidate can select one to three Guardian Angels."

"And this selection is mutual. The parade has already showcased the candidates' talents; now it's a matter of whom everyone chooses to support. If you wish to become a Guardian Angel for a candidate, you must step forward and onto the candidate's flower cart."

"But, as I said earlier, each candidate can choose up to three Guardian Angels, so if many people support the same candidate, there will be competition."

"The final selection will be made by the candidate who will choose one to three people as their Guardian Angels, forming their team for the title contest."

"Oh."

Li Feng acknowledged, considering the mutual selection process and the competition to become a Guardian Angel.

"Of course, if that's all there was, not many people would participate. However, there is an added bonus to becoming a Guardian Angel: you may become a special guest of the person."

Hmm?

Xiao Luobing acknowledged, eyeing Li Feng once more: "No wonder those people are so eager; there's such a perk involved."

"Please, everyone, quiet down."

At that moment, a graceful figure suddenly leaped into the air, and a clear, heavenly voice covered the entire square.

The one who appeared was the owner of the Flowers Pavilion.

The Pavilion owner looked down at the arena from above: "The annual Oiran title contest has once again begun. There's no need for me to explain the rules; everyone should understand."

"The ten candidates for the Oiran title are in place, and now it's time to select our Guardian Angels. If you have a favored candidate, step forward."

With the announcement of the Flowers Pavilion's owner, the entire White Tiger Square fell into a frenzy. The ten flower carts spread out to different positions around the square, not close to one another, but each had a circle drawn around it.

To compete for the Guardian Angel position, one only needs to step into this circle to qualify.

The next second.

The eager men made their choices.

"This black silk goddess is mine, who dares to snatch her from me."
