Han Zheng recognized this person. He was a waiter at the Yue Lai Guest Station who had been in charge of serving him.
Previously, the waiter had been extremely respectful to him, nodding his head and bowing his back, vividly displaying the spirit of a lackey. But now that he had been eliminated, the waiter's face had a 180-degree change in an instant.
In fact, this was normal. After all, those who could participate in the Heavenly Court's selection were all geniuses recommended by various places. They all had a certain amount of potential.
They all had the potential to soar into the sky. Once they passed the selection, they would soar into the sky.
Therefore, every time the Heavenly Court's selection was held, all the inns on Xuanhuang Island would open their doors to the participating geniuses and try their best to rope them in.
They would entertain them with the best conditions, all free of charge.
The purpose of this was naturally to produce geniuses who passed the selection. Then, such small favors would be worth it.
This was a little bit of a game. They were all giving these geniuses small favors when they were still very weak and had no status. Such a big favor would be extremely huge in return.
However, there were some things in the world that were very fickle. Once one failed to be chosen, they would immediately receive another kind of treatment.
And this reality was vividly portrayed by the waiter in front of him. His eyebrows were furrowed and his expression was as unpleasant as it could be when he looked at Han Zheng.
Such treatment naturally made Han Zheng very uncomfortable, but he knew that he had failed, so it was normal for others to look down on him. It was just that being looked down on by a waiter was really unpleasant.
"Why are you still living here?" The waiter asked directly as he came up, acting like an old man.
Han Zheng frowned deeply, but he still said, "I'll move out right away."
"Not right away, right now, right now, right away, understand?" The waiter didn't give Han Zheng any chance at all. He put his hands on his waist and raised his voice by a few octaves. The look of disdain on his face was extremely aggressive. "I say, why are you so shameless? You have no self-awareness at all. You have no strength and no talent. Why did you participate in the Heavenly Court's selection? You simply don't know what you're talking about. "
"Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? The moment I saw you, I knew that you wouldn't be able to pass the selection. Just as I expected, mud will always be mud. No matter how hard you try, you won't become strong."
"All these years, I've let you freeload at our Yuelai Inn and serve us well for so long. It really feels like I've eaten shit. I've put up with you for a long time. Get the hell out of here, or I'll get someone to beat you up. "
This wasn't what the waiter had said in the past. Before this, the waiter had been fawning over Han Zheng every day. He had been fawning over Han Zheng in all sorts of ways, flattering him and saying all sorts of good things about him.
But now?
Han Zheng smiled bitterly in his heart when he saw that face.
He didn't want to get angry with a waiter. Anyway, he didn't have anything to pack, so he just left.
Seeing that Han Zheng had given in, the waiter revealed a smug smile on his face.
But at this moment, a voice rang out, "How many god stones do you live here for a year?"
"Who?" Hearing this sudden voice, the waiter was startled. Since when was there another person?
Han Zheng was also startled. Since when did he not know that there was someone here?
After the two of them scanned the surroundings, their gazes landed on a figure. The person who had arrived was none other than Qin Xiao.
In fact, Qin Xiao had been here all this time, but the two of them couldn't see him.
"When did you show up?" The waiter looked at Qin Xiao with some vigilance, but he didn't sense any powerful aura from Qin Xiao. This meant that the person in front of him shouldn't be an expert.
Thinking of this, the waiter felt a little relieved.
Qin Xiao said casually, "You just arrived. How many god stones do you live here for a year?"
"Hmph, god stones?" The waiter immediately sneered, "You must be an outsider. You don't know the market price. Our Yuelai Inn is one of the largest inns on Xuanhuang Island. This courtyard is in the sky class, so it's very expensive. God stones can't afford to live here for a year. It costs one divine crystal a year. Do you know? "
"One divine crystal a year?" Qin Xiao frowned slightly. A divine crystal was equivalent to a hundred million divine stones. Such a price could not be considered low.
One had to know that the wealth of an ordinary fourth-step Celestial God was less than 100 million god stones, but one year of living here would cost 100 million god stones. In other words, an ordinary fourth-step Celestial God couldn't afford to live here for a year.
But for Qin Xiao, it was nothing. Qin Xiao casually threw 100 divine crystals into the waiter's hand and said, "Then stay here for a hundred years."
The waiter's eyes lit up when he saw the divine crystals in his hand. Someone who could take out a hundred divine crystals so casually was definitely not a nobody.
The waiter naturally didn't dare to offend such a person. He immediately smiled flatteringly, nodded and bowed, and said, "Good, good, good. Please come in. If there's anything you need, just let me know."
The waiter's expression immediately changed. He glared at Han Zheng and scolded, "Why haven't you left yet? What are you still doing here? Scram, scram, scram. Hurry up. "
As he spoke, the waiter impatiently chased Han Zheng away as if he was chasing a chick.
"Wait, who told you to chase him away?" Qin Xiao shouted coldly, his face darkening slightly.
"Ah?" Hearing Qin Xiao's words, the waiter stopped what he was doing and looked at Qin Xiao with a puzzled expression.
Han Zheng also looked at Qin Xiao in confusion. What was the meaning of this?
Qin Xiao said to the waiter with a cold face, "This is my friend, so of course he's staying here. I'm paying for him. What, can't you stay in the Yuelai Inn with divine crystals? "
"Boom!"
The waiter felt a sudden clap of thunder explode in his chest.
However, he was also a person who spoke according to the situation. His attitude immediately took a 180-degree turn. "No, no, no. That's not what this humble one meant. This humble one didn't know that Young Master Han was Young Master Han's friend. My apologies for offending you earlier. I hope that Young Master Han will be magnanimous and not lower himself to this humble one's level. Look at my stinky mouth, I deserve to be beaten. "
As he spoke, the waiter slapped his own ears. He was still as arrogant as before. At this moment, he was a complete henchman.
Qin Xiao was too lazy to argue with this kind of person. He waved his hand to the waiter and said, "You can leave. If there's nothing important, don't bother us. Understand?"
"Understood." The waiter immediately nodded and bowed, then quickly retreated.
After sending the waiter away, Han Zheng said gratefully, "Senior, thank you for helping me out. I really don't know how to repay such a great kindness. However, I've already been eliminated. There's no point in staying here. Leaving is the best choice for me. "
"It's just that I've caused you to spend a hundred divine crystals for nothing. I really feel bad about it. I'm afraid I won't be able to repay such a great kindness."
Qin Xiao walked to a stone table in the courtyard and sat down. With a wave of his hand, some wine appeared on the table.
Han Zheng frowned slightly, not quite understanding the senior's intentions. However, he still walked over and sat opposite Qin Xiao.
"Have you ever thought about passing the selection and becoming a disciple of the Heavenly Court Island? Do you want to stand out and become an expert?" Qin Xiao poured himself a cup of wine and smiled faintly.
Han Zheng's heart buzzed. How could he not have thought about this?
He had come here with this belief right from the start. He wanted to pass the Heavenly Court's selection and join the Heavenly Court Island. He wanted to leap over the dragon gate and ascend to a high position.
Once he joined the Heavenly Court Island, his fate would change completely. Everything he wanted would come true.
However, all of this was just a fantasy to him. Now, this fantasy had been shattered.
As a result, when Qin Xiao mentioned this again, Han Zheng felt extremely bitter inside. He shook his head helplessly and said awkwardly, "To be honest, senior, I'm not very talented. I really don't have much potential to improve. I've already been eliminated, and I only made it to the third round. I've really embarrassed myself in front of senior. "
"My path has already come to an end. No matter how many fantasies I have, they all cease to exist."
However, Qin Xiao chuckled softly and shook his head, "No, your path hasn't come to an end. Your battle hasn't ended. There's still hope."
"What?"
Han Zheng was stunned as if he had been electrocuted. He stood up in shock and stared blankly at Qin Xiao. He said in confusion, "Senior, forgive me for not understanding what you mean. I've already been eliminated. I don't even have the right to participate. Why isn't it over yet? "
"I don't know where the hope you speak of comes from."
Qin Xiao didn't answer immediately. Instead, he drank a cup of wine and said slowly, "If I give you a chance to resurrect and participate in the selection, do you think you'll have a chance to win first place in the selection battle?"
What? A chance to resurrect and participate in the selection battle? What was that? He'd never heard of it.
First place in the selection battle? How was that possible?
He'd been eliminated in the third round. There were millions of gods who were stronger than him in this selection battle. How could he win first place? The difference was simply too great. It was something that was completely impossible.
Han Zheng didn't even dare to dream of such a thing.
Therefore, Han Zheng looked at Qin Xiao strangely. He didn't understand the meaning of Qin Xiao's words at all.
Qin Xiao also knew that Han Zheng would find it hard to believe him. He said, "You'll know soon enough."
Know soon enough?
Han Zheng was still confused. What was the meaning of this?
Where did this senior come from?
Boom!
A supreme divine power suddenly descended. A towering figure descended from the sky and landed in the courtyard.
It was a majestic old man with an incomparably sharp aura.
When he saw who it was, Han Zheng immediately knelt down and said, "Greetings, mighty one!"
It was obvious that a mighty one had descended. This mighty one was the one who had presided over the selection battle for the Heavenly Court, so Han Zheng naturally recognized him.
