After hearing the word "arrive", everybody in the venue became shocked. Because it was not the time for Fire Dragon Hermit to appear yet, many people were gathering in the venue and whispering to each other. Many of them were not in their own seats, which looked a bit impolite...
However, soon after the word "arrive", all the people in the venue had recovered their composure. The younger generation hurriedly ran back to the seats of their clans. After being slightly dumbfounded, those knights and elders whispered to each other for a short while. After that, they walked back to the seats of their clans and sects in a calm manner.
Even those disciples of Immortal Fist Position Sect who were chattering in the venue just now closed their mouths. No matter what, small figures like them who were not even knights were not qualified to interrupt an earth knight. If they still murmured when Fire Dragon Hermit appeared, given the sharp hearing of earth knights, they would mean that they were challenging Fire Dragon Hermit and profaning the dignity of earth knights. They dared not be so presumptuous even if they had 10,000 guts.
After exchanging a glance with each other, the head of Immortal Fist Position Sect and the two elders remained silent.
In the venue, Nangong Sheng the head of Immortal Fist Position Sect and Lu Dingzhi were the only two earth knights in the venue. Being different than Lu Dingzhi who looked like a typical uncle, Nangong Sheng the head of Immortal Fist Position Sect had a square, slightly dark face with long, narrow eyes and gray hair. He was wearing a purple-golden crown which was inlaid with alchemist's gems and 5 snow-white long beards. He was wearing a grand and luxurious long robe which was embroidered with sun, moons, stars, flowers, birds, fishes and insects. He was also stepping on a pair of 3-layer golden silk tiger-head shoes. Two beautiful twin female disciples were standing behind him, one was holding a sword while the other was holding a long vase. The two female disciples were dressed like boys who looked tender and charming like Taoist children on the side of immortals in the legends of Hua people. They were absolutely like a powerhouse and the head of one of the top 7 sects in Taixia Country.
When the others saw Zhang Tie coming out, they all turned around; however, Nangong Sheng just slightly tilted his face and stroked his snow-white long beard with a bit arrogant look.
There was a prominent and dazzling ring on Nangong Sheng's hand which was stroking his long beard. At the sight of it, Zhang Tie knew that it was inlaid with a nanobead. It was a precious space-teleportation equipment.
Under everyone's expectation, Zhang Tie strode out alone.
As soon as he walked out with his height and build, coupled with his iconic bald head, many guests secretly cheered in their hearts — — What a strong and powerful man!
Compared to Nangong Sheng, the head of Immortal Fist Position Sect, although Zhang Tie looked decent today, he was also a bit simple. He didn't wear any superfluous clothes from head to toe. He looked neat and tidy.
The moment Zhang Tie appeared, he had come to the center of the main rostrum. Instead of opening his mouth, he cupped his hands towards all the others solemnly. All the knights, elders and the head of Immortal Fist Position Sect cupped their hands towards him. Nangong Sheng and the two elders of Immortal Fist Position Sect also cupped their hands towards him casually.
When Zhang Tie cupped his hands towards Nangong Sheng, he had already seen 1/3 of them at present when he competed for the provincial governor of Youzhou City. As for those who had not seen him before, Zhang Tie could guess them according to the seats of the major clans and sects.
Of course, Zhang Tie had also seen the looks of those people of Immortal Fist Position Sect.
At the sight of the look of Nangong Sheng, the head of Immortal Fist Position Sect, Zhang Tie became thrilled at once, 'F * ck, are you acting or telling a story? This father has seen so many earth knights in the Earth-elements Realm, but none of them are as showy as you. Even shadow knights are not as awesome as you. If I see you in this look in the Earth-elements Realm, I would think that you're a heavenly knight.
Rubbing his bald head with his hand, he laughed and said, "Everyone, I, Lao Chui, heard that everyone has arrived. Although there are still more than ten or twenty minutes before the official time, I thought that there is no need to waste everyone's time here. Therefore, I couldn't wait to come here and have a chat with everyone. Anyway, this opening ceremony is also the first time for me, Lao Chui. If there is any negligence or abruptness, please forgive me."
"Not at all, not at all. Fire Dragon Hermit, you're too polite!"
The moment Zhang Tie opened his mouth, all the others at present had responded with a smile in a relaxed atmosphere.
Most of the people at present had felt that Fire Dragon Hermit was forthright and open-minded, not to mention that Zhang Tie was an earth knight. Such a person could easily win their favor. However, it was just their first impression about Zhang Tie. As the old saying went, no one could promote to a knight by luck, not to mention an earth knight.
Zhang Tie continued, "As you could come to the opening ceremony of Iron-Dragon Sect, I'm very happy about it. It's reasonable for me to be polite to you. However, it would be too hypocritical. This Cui doesn't like hypocritical. No matter what, the opening ceremony of Iron-Dragon Sect in Taixia Country doesn't have a formal form. We just need to meet each other, have a meal and get to know each other. I want our opening ceremony of Iron-Dragon Sect to be boisterous. Like how those commercial firms and stores would hold an activity to accumulate some popularity and make a good start, I've also arranged an activity for you so that you could have a good time in Xuantian City. Many things in the world could be solved in a good way."
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, many knights at present exchanged glances with each other. By contrast, Elder Muyu and Lu Dingzhi watched Zhang Tie more seriously. Some female knights at present were also interested in Zhang Tie; especially Guo Hongyi, the head of Guo Clan. Since Zhang Tie appeared, his vigorous figure and demeanor had aroused Guo Hongyi's interest.
Actually, women were like men in many aspects. Different men would like different types of women while different women would like different types of men. Some liked elegant childes; some liked cynical men; some liked hesitant men; some liked sage-like men. However, Guo Hongyi liked tall and masculine men. Pitifully, very few men could be masculine in front of Guo Hongyi across Northeast Military Region. Compared to this woman, many men felt like being like a woman. How could they be masculine at all?
Before Zhang Tie finished his words, an elder of Immortal Fist Position Sect had revealed a smile, "What Fire Dragon Hermit said is really interesting. Did Fire Dragon Hermit arrange a discount for us in the opening ceremony of Iron-Dragon Sect like those peddlers..."
Although the elder of the Immortal Fist Sect had a questioning tone, it was more of a sarcastic tone.
After hearing the words of the elder of Immortal Fist Position Sect, the venue became quiet at once. All the others at present thought, 'Immortal Fist Position Sect is really not friendly. How could they find trouble at the beginning? They're really here to challenge us.'
When the elder of Immortal Fist Position Sect opened his mouth, Nangong Sheng was still stroking his long beard, as if he had not heard the reproach of the elder on his side. Therefore, everyone understood that Immortal Fist Position Sect had reached a tacit agreement with the elder of the sect.
In Taixia Country, it had almost become a tradition in Jianghu that a martial arts club opened in a town or a knight established his own sect in a certain place. If someone didn't like you and wanted to find you trouble, the opening ceremony and washing one's hands in the golden basin were the most suitable occasions. In Taixia Country, there were precedents that knights couldn't continue their opening ceremony after being challenged by their martial arts club and the opening ceremony of their own sect. However, it was Fire Dragon Hermit's first time to come to Northeast Military Region. Additionally, he had the bounty land of the imperial court. Therefore, he didn't have any grudges with the local major clans. Therefore, nobody at present could imagine that someone dared challenge the opening ceremony of Fire Dragon Hermit.
Everybody was waiting for Fire Dragon Hermit's response. If they wanted to know a person, this was actually the best occasion. As the saying went, strong wind tests strong grass; fierce fire tests real gold.
Many of them were secretly excited.
"Bro, you're sitting in the seat of Immortal Fist Position Sect, may I know your name?" Zhang Tie asked with a smile as if he had not sensed the sarcasm in Elder Fist Position Sect's tone.
"I'm Mo Qi, an elder of Immortal Fist Position Sect!"
When Elder Mo Qi said this, he didn't even pick up his chair; instead, he revealed a faint fearless smile.
"Hahaha..." Zhang Tie burst out into laughter as he pointed at Elder Mo Qi of Immortal Fist Position Sect, "Elder Mo Qi, how do you have such a small head? You're like a roundworm in my intestines. How could you guess what this Elder Cui is thinking about? You've told me what this Elder Cui wants to do with your small mouth. Not bad, this Elder Cui wants to have a lucky draw by smashing golden eggs in the opening ceremony..."
"Small head" and "small mouth", when Zhang Tie pointed at Elder Mo Qi of Immortal Fist Position Sect, most of the knights' face muscles twitched as they tried their best not to burst out into laughter. However, some female knights at present couldn't help bursting out into laughter as they hurriedly closed their mouths...
Elder Mo Qi's figure was originally a little thin. Compared to Cui LI, he was indeed small. But no matter how small he was, the words' small head 'and' small mouth ', when used on Elder Mo Qi, still made people feel weird, and they couldn't help but laugh …
Elder Mo Qi didn't know that he was seeking for humiliation if he wanted to compete with Zhang Tie who had been practicing with people from all walks of life in grocery stores since he was young. The two of them were not on the same level at all...
