Chapter 123: "It's Chen Qiu!!!

```

"Is this the Capital?"

Chen Qiu stood still, wearing a mask that shielded against Divine Sense detection, glanced at the long queue entering not far away, and then looked towards the bustling scene inside the Capital through the wide-open city gates.

"The gates of the Capital are open day and night."

The scholar beside him explained, "As the Capital of Da Xia, it naturally has its own pride—never closing its gates even at night, without any worry of enemy attacks. In reality, an attack is practically impossible."

"Unless a Nascent Soul decides to attack, but if a Nascent Soul does come, whether the gates are open or not wouldn't make much of a difference."

"In the Capital, even at night, it's like a scene of peace and prosperity. It's just that on normal days, there aren't this many people. Because tomorrow the Heavenly Pride Leaderboard competition is about to begin, tonight the Capital has attracted quite a crowd."

"After all, this is also a rare grand spectacle."
