Duan Lingtian's brows raised.
Pei San, the third son of the Swallow Mountain County's County Governor, had an arm chopped off by him.
Unexpectedly, the news had already spread by now.
With a quick thought, Duan Lingtian came to an understanding. There was no such thing as an absolute secret in this world, not to mention such explosive news.
Before long, the waiter served the dishes and wine.
Duan Lingtian's group of three chatted as they ate.
"I've heard of Pei San, the third son of the Swallow Mountain County's County Governor. Supposedly, he broke through to the third level of the Core Formation Stage before the age of 17 and is a famous young genius in Swallow Mountain County."
Meng Quan's eyes flashed as he slowly spoke.
"Since the arm he used to execute martial skills was crippled, his life can be considered to be completely ruined."
Xiao Yu said.
"Doesn't he still have the other arm?"
Meng Quan was stunned.
Xiao Yu shook his head with a smile.
Meng Quan was puzzled as he looked at the violet-clothed youth across the table. "Duan Lingtian, what does Xiao Yu mean by this?"
"Meng Quan."
Duan Lingtian looked at Meng Quan and smiled. "Which hand are you good at using to execute martial skills?"
"Of course it's my right hand!"
Meng Quan said bluntly.
"Then which hand do you usually use when eating, holding chopsticks, or writing?"
Duan Lingtian asked again.
"My right hand as well, I've been used to it since I was young."
Meng Quan didn't think before directly replying.
"Then that's right. For example, if your right hand was crippled and you were unable to execute martial skills … How long would it take for you to completely replace your right hand with your left hand? "
Duan Lingtian asked again.
"This …"
At this moment, Meng Quan seemed to have completely understood.
A person's life was only a few tens of years.
That Pei San, with his most important arm crippled, if he wanted to once again use his other hand to cultivate martial skills, or even change to a leg technique martial skill … he would surely have to spend an extremely large amount of time.
In this way, the improvement of his cultivation base would be delayed.
As time passed, even his peers who were slightly less talented than him in the past would leave him in the dust.
"Tsk tsk."
Meng Quan couldn't help but click his tongue. "I don't know who was so ruthless, cutting off Pei San's arm with one strike … That's the son of our Swallow Mountain County's governor. If he's found out, I'm afraid he'll die without a burial place."
Xiao Yu didn't think much of it. "It's been so long and I haven't heard that the County Governor's Manor has found the culprit. I guess they can't find him."
"That's true."
Meng Quan nodded.
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes and ate his food unhurriedly.
It was as if the conversation between Meng Quan and Xiao Yu had nothing to do with him.
"However, Duan Lingtian, you were really ruthless just now … Those four people from the Yu clan were directly sent flying by you. I'm afraid this matter will spread throughout Iron Blood City not long after. At that time, the Yu clan will really lose face."
Xiao Yu glanced at Duan Lingtian and shook his head with a smile.
"Even if they lose face, it's because they brought it upon themselves. There are so many people eating in the restaurant, but they just had to target our table."
Duan Lingtian rolled his eyes with an indifferent expression.
"The Yu clan won't find trouble with us, right? “
Meng Quan was slightly worried.
"Meng Quan, you're worrying too much. Even if the Yu clan wants to find trouble with us, it would be a year later … The strength of the people from the Yu clan isn't bad and should be able to enter the genius camp. At that time, it's hard to say if they'll even be able to survive. "
As Xiao Yu finished speaking, a trace of killing intent flashed past his eyes.
Duan Lingtian's eyebrows slightly twitched.
He felt a trace of genuine killing intent from Xiao Yu's body …
This was something that none of the young martial artists he'd encountered in the past had.
Obviously, Xiao Yu had killed people before …
Moreover, it wasn't just one or two.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Duan Lingtian's group of three left the restaurant.
However, they were deeply remembered by the group of young geniuses in the restaurant.
Especially Duan Lingtian.
A 16 or 17 year old fourth level Core Formation martial artist. It was difficult for them not to remember him.
Duan Lingtian's group of three walked around Iron Blood City's night market before returning to the inn to rest.
Tomorrow, they would head to the Iron Blood Army's camp to register.
Tonight, Duan Lingtian didn't cultivate. He lay on the bed and recalled his experiences in the past year …
He couldn't help but sigh.
"Now, I can be considered to have completely integrated into this world."
A warm smile appeared on the corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth.
He thought of his mother, Li Rou, thought of Kerr, thought of Li Fei …
They were the people he cared about the most in this world.
For them, he was willing to go against the entire world!
Deep into the night, Duan Lingtian fell into a deep sleep.
He had a very long dream.
In the dream, he was entangled with Kerr and Little Fei, and then had many, many children …
When his ninth child was born.
"Duan Lingtian!"
A voice that was like muffled thunder startled Duan Lingtian awake.
"F * * k! Meng Quan, you've disturbed my beautiful dream. "
Duan Lingtian casually washed up, changed his clothes, and walked out of his room as he cursed.
Meng Quan awkwardly rubbed the back of his head and laughed foolishly.
"Let's go register."
At this time, Xiao Yu also came out.
The east side of Iron Blood City had been divided into a vast area. This was the Iron Blood Army's camp.
Now, at the entrance of the Iron Blood Army's camp, there were many lines like a long dragon.
One by one, the youths lined up neatly.
"We're still too late."
Meng Quan could not help but be dumbfounded when he saw the dense mass of troops.
"It doesn't matter if we're late, as long as someone didn't come late."
Duan Lingtian looked into the distance, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Hmm?"
Xiao Yu and Meng Quan were both puzzled.
"Let's go, someone has saved a spot for us."
Duan Ling Tian brought along Xiao Yu and Li Wuyou as he took the lead and squeezed his way to the front of the group.
"Hey! Have some manners, line up. "
"Shame on you for cutting the line!"
"Kid, I'm talking to you."
… …
Immediately, the group of youths, who were sweating profusely because of the line, couldn't help but shout at Duan Lingtian and the other two.
Xiao Yu and Meng Quan were both a little embarrassed.
"Duan Lingtian, let's line up."
Meng Quan said in a low voice.
Duan Lingtian ignored Meng Quan, and instead looked at the few people who were shouting. He frowned and said, "What are you shouting for? Which eye of yours saw me cutting the line? We came early in the morning, and our companions are still saving a spot for us. "
After hearing Duan Lingtian's words, the group of people who were shouting quieted down, but they looked at Duan Lingtian suspiciously.
Xiao Yu and Meng Quan were both dumbfounded.
Companions?
How come they didn't know that they had companions?
"Hey! Brothers, thank you for helping us line up and save a spot, lunch is on me. "
At this time, Duan Lingtian had already reached the front of the line, and slapped the grey-clothed youth on the shoulder.
"Which bastard touched the old …"
The grey-clothed youth shouted, but when he saw Duan Lingtian, he forcefully swallowed the word "bastard" back down his throat. "You … you …"
"Brothers, thank you for your hard work."
Duan Lingtian squinted his eyes, and smiled as he interrupted the grey-clothed youth's words, then looked at the three youths behind him and nodded.
He seemed kind, but in Duan Lingtian's eyes, there was a trace of threat.
These four youths were none other than the four Yu Family youths who were taught a lesson by Duan Lingtian at the restaurant yesterday evening …
Xiao Yu and Meng Quan finally reacted, and secretly gave Duan Lingtian a thumbs up.
Just like this, Duan Lingtian and the other two successfully cut the queue.
The surrounding youths who were eyeing the grey-clothed youth saw no reaction, and naturally thought that Duan Lingtian and the other two were with him …
Of course, there were also some youths who happened to be eating at the restaurant yesterday who recognized Duan Lingtian and the grey-clothed youth.
But they didn't say anything.
They had all seen Duan Lingtian's strength, and were afraid of getting into trouble.
The grey-clothed youth's face was flushed red, and his heart was trembling.
Motherf * cker, did I offend Taisui these two days?
Why do I have to meet this fiend wherever I go? It's fine that I lost face at the restaurant yesterday, but this morning when I came to line up, he still cut the queue.
But he didn't dare to say anything.
Or else, he could imagine that his end would be even worse than yesterday …
"Yu Xiao, this guy is too much."
The three youths behind the grey-clothed youth were filled with righteous indignation, but they only dared to use a mosquito-like voice to speak.
"Then what do you think we should do? Why don't you chase him away? "
Yu Xiao rolled his eyes at his three companions.
When the three youths heard this, they immediately acted as if they didn't hear anything. They looked left and right, maintaining their silence.
After a while, it was Duan Lingtian and the other two's turn.
After filling in the simple registration information, the three of them each received a number plate.
Duan Lingtian's was number 137.
Xiao Yu's was number 138.
Meng Quan's was number 139.
"Before noon tomorrow, use your number plates to enter the Iron Blood Army's camp and participate in the test … Once you pass the test, you will be a member of the genius camp."
The Iron Blood Army soldier wearing light armor had a cold expression.
Duan Lingtian and the other two nodded and turned around, preparing to leave.
"Thanks, brother. In view of our 'fate', I will definitely treat you to tea when I have time."
Before leaving, Duan Lingtian patted the shoulder of the grey-clothed youth and grinned, revealing his neat white teeth. "Also, your name is not bad … Yu Xiao. Just hearing it, I know it's an extraordinary name. I've learned some divination. Believe me, you will definitely be an extraordinary person in the future. "
It was very obvious that Duan Lingtian had heard the conversation between Yu Xiao and his three companions.
The corners of Xiao Yu and Meng Quan's mouths twitched, and they forcefully held back their laughter …
Yu Xiao's face darkened.
This fiend, what does he want to do!
"Okay, brother, quickly go get your number plate. Otherwise, Big Brother Soldier will be unhappy."
Duan Lingtian smiled and patted Yu Xiao's shoulder as he slowly said.
After finishing speaking, Duan Lingtian and the other two walked out.
At this moment.
"The four of you are together?"
The face of the young soldier from the Iron Blood Army sank as he asked Yu Xiao and the three people behind him.
"Yes, Big Brother Soldier."
Yu Xiao hurriedly nodded his head.
Although he was a disciple of the County City's Yu Clan, the might of the Iron Blood Army shook the world. The soldiers within the Iron Blood Army were said to be vicious and merciless, so he didn't dare be presumptuous.
"The three people in front of you have already gotten their number plates a while ago. You only came over now. Are you intentionally making me wait and making me look bad?"
The soldier from the Iron Blood Army seemed to have transformed into an angry King Kong as he shouted in a low voice.
"No, no …"
Yu Xiao hurriedly waved his hand.
"Hmph! Since the four of you are delaying the time of the people behind you … Now, scram to the back of the line and line up again! "
