The large groups that were able to enter the Jinshui Country, other than the rulers of other countries, were clans with Innate Martial Kings.
As for the others, even if they racked their brains trying to enter, they would not be able to enter. Otherwise, the large amount of spectators would flatten the Jinshui Country.
Seeing that many groups had already set off and Luo Ping still hadn't returned, Chen Xiuxiu and the others started to worry.
"Grandfather, why isn't Cousin Ping back yet? If he doesn't come back soon, there won't be enough time. "
Chen Xiuxiu anxiously asked in the meeting hall. After three years, she had become more mature and generous. Moreover, her power had greatly increased, and she was now a middle Martial Master.
Ever since Qu Xing 'er returned and passed on Luo Ping's instructions to her, Chen Xiuxiu returned home and cultivated in seclusion. Only recently did she return to the county office and wait for Luo Ping's return.
"Don't worry. Since Ping 'er has the heart to participate in the National Competition, he definitely won't miss the time. Just wait a bit longer. I think he'll be back soon," Luo Haoyu said.
Luo Haoyu said. He, who was originally stuck at the peak of the Martial Lord level, with Luo Ping's help, and after several years of cultivation, he finally made a breakthrough and entered the Martial King level.
As for the other members of the Luo family, no matter if they were in the second or third generation, they all focused on cultivation under Luo Ping's influence. Right now, everyone's strength had increased, and their overall strength had more than doubled.
"Second Sister, Grandfather is right. Cousin Ping's strength is so strong right now. If he participates in the National Competition, he will definitely get first place. How could he miss this chance?"
Chen Da, who was already in his twenties, still had a cheeky appearance as he rushed to speak.
"But it's already been three years. I wonder if Cousin Ping has grown taller again?"
Chen Xiuxiu said with an inaudible voice. A faint smile appeared on her fair and smooth face, and her two dimples showed her beauty.
Just as Luo Haoyu was about to end the meeting, he suddenly sensed something and looked outside the door. A figure flashed past and stopped in the hall.
It was Luo Ping, who had just returned after cultivating outside for three years. He was already in his twenties, and was even more handsome and confident. He gave off an unfathomable feeling.
"Ping 'er, why didn't you let the servants report? It's like a thief came to our house. "
"Father, they're too slow. I was afraid you'd wait, I came in."
After Luo Luo Haoyu, Luo Haoyu, and Luo Haoyu, Luo Haoyu, and Luo Haoyu, and Luo Haoyu..
... Luo Haoyu, Haoyu and Haoyu Haoyu, Luo Haoyu, Haoyu, and Haoyu Haoyu, Luo Haoyu, Haoyu, and Haoyu, Hais...
When they heard that Luo Ping went to Youzhou to deal with the demon, they secretly prayed that Luo Ping would die in Youzhou and never come back.
However, things didn't go as they wished. Luo Ping not only killed the demon, but also planned to participate in the National Competition, which made them even more desperate.
Putting aside the fact that Luo Ping had gotten a good ranking in the National Competition, based on the current situation, Luo Mingshuang would definitely be the next candidate to be the Marquis.
This made Luo Minglei and Haoyu Haoyu very worried. They had no choice but to take one step at a time. Before the final result was out, they still had a chance.
Luo Ping chatted with everyone for four hours before ending the conversation. After going back, he chatted with his parents for the whole night.
The next day, the people of the Luo Family, who had already prepared their luggage, set off for Jinshui Country under the lead of Luo Mingshuang and Luo Mingzhen.
…
After leaving the country and passing through two smaller countries, Luo Ping and his group arrived at the border of Jinshui Country. A few months had passed, and Luo Ping was already 22 years old.
Along the way, some of the teams who knew Luo Ping's identity approached them one after another, wanting to catch a glimpse of him. There were also countless fangirls who expressed their love for Luo Ping, making him feel very awkward along the way.
Except for Chen Xiuxiu, who had a long face, the others were happy to watch the fun. In such an atmosphere, several months passed.
"Stop. Is there a Martial King expert in your team?"
Luo Ping's team was stopped at the gate tower at the border of Jinshui Country. The soldiers guarding the city routinely interrogated them according to the rules.
In fact, the interrogation was in the hope that the other party's Martial King expert would show his unique skills. After verifying his identity, they could let him go.
"Yes, I am."
Luo Ping took a step forward and answered politely.
"You?"
All the soldiers thought that the other party was joking and wanted to cause trouble. They had already quietly picked up their weapons and were ready to fight.
On the gate tower, an old man with a white beard was sitting on a chair. He was looking at the situation below with bright eyes. When he saw Luo Ping's figure, he suddenly jumped up from his chair, startling the soldiers beside him.
"Is that General Luo Ping of Fengyuan Country?"
A loud voice resounded from the gate tower. Immediately after, a figure flashed and the old man flew down using Qing Gong. When the soldiers saw him, they quickly went forward to greet him.
"Greetings to Lord Lieutenant!"
The old man waved his hand and walked in front of Luo Ping. He said happily: "So it's really General Luo. Long time no see."
Luo Ping smiled. He didn't expect to meet an acquaintance.
"So it's Lieutenant He. Long time no see!"
"Haha, that's right. It's been five or six years since we last met at the border. However, this old man has always been able to hear news about General Luo."
The old man was one of the attendants who had followed the Jinshui Country's Monarch to the Great Ao Country's Treasury. He was also familiar with Luo Ping.
After Luo Ping and the other party chatted for a while, Lieutenant He ordered the soldiers to open the door and let Luo Ping in. He also told Luo Ping that when it was time to change shifts, he would definitely look for Luo Ping for a drink.
After Luo Ping parted ways with Lieutenant He, the soldiers led him to the Jinshui Country's Imperial Capital — Hong Province's Water Abyss City.
Water Abyss City was the main city of Water Abyss County and also the Jinshui Country's Imperial Capital. Just like the Fengyuan Country's Tiandu City, it was where the Imperial Palace was located.
At this moment, the Water Abyss City was packed with people. All the inns were almost full. Some cultivators with status were led by the soldiers to a special reception building.
There were a total of five reception buildings, one for each of the five countries. As long as they were Martial Kings who came to participate in the competition, they could enter. However, the attendants did not have the opportunity to enter.
Only those with a special status could receive special treatment. For example, Luo Ping had finally arrived at Water Abyss City after half a month of travel. He was led to the reception building by the soldiers.
After revealing his identity, he was immediately warmly received. After arranging a room for Luo Ping and the others, the manager of the building left with a smile.
Luo Ping, Chen Xiuxiu and the others were sitting in the hall on the first floor. Just as they were happily chatting, a familiar treasured saber flew directly in front of Luo Ping.
Without any movement, the treasured saber suddenly stopped in front of Luo Ping. It turned out that it was tightly clamped between his fingers.
Without turning his head, Luo Ping revealed a smile on his face. He threw the treasured saber behind him and greeted the newcomer.
"Senior Brother Han, long time no see. I didn't expect you to become even more naughty than me."
"Haha, Junior Brother Luo, I didn't expect your strength to improve so quickly. Now, I can't catch up with you even if I ride a horse."
"Senior Brother is not simple either. It's only been a few years since we last met and you've already advanced to the late stage of Martial King. It seems that you're also planning to show off your skills in the National Competition."
As they spoke, Han Junyang had already arrived beside Luo Ping. Luo Mingshuang and the others quickly stood up to greet him and gave him their seats.
Although everyone knew that he and Luo Ping were fellow disciples, he was still a senior after all. They still had to be polite.
After Han Junyang sat down, he shook his head and answered Luo Ping's question in a low voice.
"Show off my skills? Junior Brother, you don't know. According to my investigation these days, this National Competition should be the one with the most experts. I don't know why, but there are so many Innate Experts. It's as if they don't cost money. It's so eye-catching.
With my strength at the late stage of Martial King, I can't even show my skills. Junior Brother, you must strive to win the first place and win glory for our country. "
As Han Junyang spoke, he patted Luo Ping's shoulder and cheered him on. However, Luo Ping was very interested in the number of Innate Experts mentioned by Han Junyang. He couldn't help but ask.
"Senior Brother, how many Innate Experts have come to Jinshui Country to participate in the National Competition?"
Hearing this, Han Junyang picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it in one gulp. Then, he slowly stretched out two fingers.
"More than 200. This is the approximate number of people we know at present. It's estimated that there will be at least 300 people when the competition starts."
"Tsk!"
Everyone gasped. 300 Innate Experts were participating in the National Competition to fight for the only 108 places on the Heavenly Spirits Earthly Fiends Roll. It was hard to imagine how intense the competition would be.
"300 Innate Experts? Then what about the Martial Kings and Martial Lords? There's no need for them to participate at all? "
Luo Mingshuang spread her hands and said with a smile. The others had the same thoughts. It seemed that the National Competition this time was destined to be the home ground of the Innate Experts.
"Who said it wasn't? Originally, I thought that after advancing to the late stage of Martial King, I would be able to get a good ranking on the Heavenly Spirits Roll. Even if I couldn't get on the Heavenly Spirits Roll, I would be able to get a good ranking on the Earthly Fiends Roll. It would be a worthwhile trip. But now …"
Han Junyang could only shake his head and continue drinking. On the other hand, Luo Ping didn't say a word. He frowned and pondered. At this moment, he asked the question in his heart.
"Senior Brother Han, weren't there only a few dozen Innate Experts participating in the past? Why are there suddenly so many of them this time? Have you found out the reason? "
"I don't know what's going on for now. Even Jinshui Country feels that something is amiss. They are already trying their best to find out the reason. I think there will be a result soon.
Anyway, no matter what the reason is, since these Innate Experts are here, they will definitely participate in the competition. This year's competition will definitely be exceptionally exciting. Junior Brother, you must do your best! "
Han Junyang knew that he didn't have the strength to participate in the competition. He could only repeatedly remind Luo Ping to get the first place. This was also a way to satisfy his dream.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother. I will do my best."
