Outside of the Lancang Province Prefecture's city gate, there were lanterns and decorations, and a red carpet was spread out over a hundred feet. On both sides of the city gate, there were hundreds of people dressed in luxurious clothes lined up neatly. In the middle stood five elders with powerful auras.
In the Lancang Province, as long as one had some status and knowledge, they would definitely recognize these five old men. The person in the middle was the Lancang Province's Provincial Governor, and the four old men beside him were equally famous. They were the leaders of the four great martial forces in the Lancang Province!
Even the people standing on both sides had prominent positions in the Lancang Province Prefecture.
This was obviously a formation to welcome an important guest, and they had maintained it for nearly eight hours. Those with weaker cultivation had their legs stiffened, and the forced smiles on their faces were numb …
However, the important guest that they were supposed to welcome had yet to arrive.
"Ta, ta, ta …"
The sound of horse hooves, neither too fast nor too slow, drifted from afar along with the rising red sun. At this moment, the five old men in the middle looked at each other one after another.
"It should be Brother Huangqi, right?"
"It should be. Brother Huangqi has such a hobby. I heard that no matter where he goes, he would always drive a horse carriage …"
"It's later than we expected by more than four hours. Don't tell me that Yunzhou's Li Ran can't even bear to part with a few good horses? This dog shit is so lucky, but he still can't bear to part with it. He's really too stingy … Brother Zhuge, don't tell me that your reward hasn't arrived yet? You made us wait for so long … "
The elder who was addressed as Brother Zhuge was the Prefecture Master, Zhuge Chengfeng, who was standing in the middle. He smiled and shook his head at the elder who was speaking. His gaze slowly swept across the people on both sides, and finally landed on the thirteen young boys and girls who looked to be around sixteen to seventeen years old. He said softly, "Cheer up, especially the thirteen of you!"
"Yes!"
…
These thirteen young boys and girls were the four major forces in the Lancang Province Prefecture. They had gone through many rounds of selection before they were qualified to stand here. Every single one of them had a powerful aura, especially the young man standing in the middle. He wasn't tall, but he was tall and straight like a pine tree. His entire body exuded an elegant aura. He was handsome, with sword-like eyebrows, red lips, and white teeth. His eyes shone brightly. Regardless of his cultivation, just his appearance and aura alone made the top geniuses of the Lancang Province feel ashamed of their inferiority …
"Ta ta ta …"
The sound of horse hooves approached from afar. A luxurious carriage bathed in the morning sun appeared before everyone's eyes. When the five elders leading the group saw the 'coachman', Zhuge Chengfeng immediately cupped his fists and said loudly, "Brother Huangqi, we've been waiting for you for a long time. You're finally here …"
"Sorry, sorry. I was delayed by a pile of shit on the way. Haha …" Huang Qi seemed to be used to such a grand welcome. He directly said something that made everyone almost spit out.
"These are the disciples selected this year?" Huang Qi pulled the reins and jumped down from the carriage. His eyes carried a trace of scrutiny as he looked at the thirteen boys and girls and said.
"That's right! The lowest cultivation of these thirteen people is rank one Martial Monarch and the highest is rank nine Martial Monarch. They're all seventeen years old! "Zhuge Chengfeng hurriedly said.
"You've met the requirements, but it seems to be a bit too much. Including the three little fellows in the carriage, your Lancang Province has sixteen people. It's really a bit too much. A total of thirteen is still passable …" Huang Qi said as he stroked his beard. At the same time, a trace of Spirit Power slowly spread out and examined the thirteen boys and girls.
"This … Brother Huangqi, the three of them shouldn't be counted as our Lancang Province's quota, right?" An elder's face immediately became a bit awkward, but he still firmly said. The reason was very simple. As long as Huang Qi said three people would be eliminated, then two of the three eliminated people would definitely be his disciples.
"How can it not be counted? Isn't Yunzhou County part of your Lancang Province? "
"Brother Huangqi …" Just at that time, another elder looked at one of the youths and couldn't help but open his mouth to argue, "They belong to the Lancang Province, but they were personally selected by President Fang … I'm not saying that President Fang's personal selection isn't good, but … I'm afraid that they really aren't as outstanding as any of the thirteen of us. I can guarantee that!"
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this first. Brother Huangqi, you've traveled a long way. Let's first welcome Brother Huangqi and have a good drink … Brother Huangqi, I've prepared your favorite Jade Nectar Wine for you! " Zhuge Chengfeng saw that Huang Qi's expression changed slightly, so he hurriedly changed the topic and enthusiastically pulled Huang Qi aside.
"Oh? Jade Nectar Wine? I like it … Haha … However, I'll say this first. If I say it's a lot, then it's a lot. Sixteen people. Although I, Huang Qi, have a lot of authority, I can't hand over the task. There are only three hundred people in total, and your Lancang Province takes sixteen. What about the other provinces? Unless the other provinces meet the basic requirements, only three people can be eliminated! Therefore, I can only temporarily accept all of them. When the final results are out, if they're eliminated, then don't blame me. Otherwise, there's no point in drinking this wine … "Huang Qi said straightforwardly.
How could Huang Qi not know that the reason why he was sent to the Lancang Province was because this matter was troublesome?
Other than him, he really couldn't handle anyone else.
"Brother Huang Qi is indeed a straightforward person! It's enough that you can do this. We can only pray that the other provinces are not as full of talents as our Lancang Province. Haha … Brother Huang Qi, please! "Zhuge Chengfeng gave a meaningful glance to the two old men and enthusiastically pulled Huang Qi aside.
…
"At least first rank Martial Emperor …"
While Huang Qi was arguing with the big shot of Lancang Province, Chen Hao and the other two who were hiding in the carriage, especially Mo Yu Yi and Helian Wu Zi, looked at Chen Hao with a bit of surprise. Although they had only been in contact for a day, even Mo Yu Yi and Helian Wu Zi didn't realize that they had already regarded Chen Hao as the core of their hearts.
Chen Hao's heart was also tangled. Fortunately, Huang Qi didn't let them get off the carriage. Otherwise, the three of them would have been instantly killed by everyone's eyes. Wasn't this motherf * cker clearly offending someone unknowingly?
If Fang Yuan personally appointed them, then they shouldn't occupy Lancang Province's quota. Fang Yuan also went through layers of selection and finally promoted to this level. In the end, the three of them became Cheng Yaojin who came out of nowhere …
If it was anyone else, they wouldn't be happy …
"You three little guys, what are you still doing inside? Come out and let them see if you're worthy of chairman Fang's personal appointment! "Just as Chen Hao frowned, Huang Qi suddenly spoke.
Mo Yu Yi and Helian Wu Zi immediately looked at Chen Hao again.
"Raise your spirits, don't let them look down on you. Hmm, be more arrogant! Anyway, they can't do anything to us … "Chen Hao lowered his voice and stared at Mo Yu Yi and Helian Wu Zi. Speaking of his aura, it was like performing a magic trick. Instantly, he emitted a sense of arrogance from his bones. His body shook and he pushed open the side door of the carriage, taking the lead to jump down.
When Mo Yuyi saw Chen Hao like this, he immediately took a deep breath. Holding his' lover 'tightly, he also jumped down. However, the corners of Helian Wuzi's mouth curled up slightly. The aura of her entire person instantly turned into the coldest winter …
"Yunzhou Chen Hao pays his respects to seniors!"
Chen Hao clasped his fist and bowed towards the five old men who were staring at him with bright eyes. Neither servile nor overbearing, his aura was heavy and his expression was calm. His arrogance was in his bones, it wasn't outstanding. On the contrary, it made the five old men slightly startled. Everyone's gaze towards Chen Hao also changed slightly.
"Mo Yu Yi pays his respects to seniors!" As if he was affected by Chen Hao, Mo Yu Yi who jumped down recovered his cold appearance. Both his hands held his' lover 'and he bowed towards everyone. Even when he bent down, his upper body was as straight as the big sword in his hand.
"Helian Wu Zi pays her respects to seniors!"
The last one to jump out, Helian Wu Zi, instantly made everyone's eyes light up. Even the eyes of the young men who were yearning for love lit up. Especially when her ethereal voice rang out like the tinkling of spring water. Although it was cold, it also cleansed everyone's heart.
Even the eyes of the handsome young man in the middle of the thirteen couldn't help but shine with a trace of light.
"Hehe …" Seeing everyone's expression, a complacent smile appeared on Huang Qi's old face. He said, "Chen Hao, not even thirteen years old and a cultivation of a fifth grade Martial Master. Very low … But he has the strength of a ninth grade Martial Master. Let me ask, when you were a fifth grade Martial Master, who could do that? Or … when you were thirteen years old, which one of you stepped into the fifth grade Martial Master? This doesn't count as much, but he has a rare physique that cultivates both martial arts and intent. Of course, he has even more good points, so I won't say more … "
Huang Qi's gaze intentionally or unintentionally looked at the old man who said that Chen Hao and the other two couldn't compare to any of the thirteen of them. He continued, "Mo Yu Yi's aptitude is a bit lacking, but with your eyes, you should be able to see that his body already contains sword intent, right? Regardless of whether or not he can awaken as a swordsman, what do you think is the value of nurturing him? If he was your disciple, I believe that you would treat him like a treasure, right? "
"This …"
"As for Helian Wu Zi, do you still need me to say it?" Huang Qi glanced at Helian Wu Zi who was emitting an icy aura and lightly smiled.
"This …" Zhuge Cheng Feng, as the lord of Lan Cang province, felt a bit embarrassed at this moment. He had already opened his mouth twice, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say. He had heard that Fang Yuan had personally selected three disciples from Cloud State who had obtained the qualifications. Although Cloud State belonged to Lan Cang, he didn't feel the slightest bit of joy about this matter. Not only did he have to take out a huge reward for Cloud State, he also had to squeeze out the spots chosen by the four forces of Lan Cang. Although he didn't express it, he was dissatisfied with Li Ran in his heart. More or less, he felt that Li Ran was using his status to do some dirty tricks.
