"Martial arts fanatic?"
The four of them were stunned as a bad premonition arose in their hearts.
"Yes." The City Lord nodded and said in a deep voice, "I heard that when he was young, before he went to the Heavenly Wolf Holy Land, he was very belligerent. He would spar with others all day long. If they disagreed, he would even fight. Moreover, he was really ruthless. In the inter-academy competition, almost every move was fatal. Very few people dared to fight with him.
"After he entered the Heavenly Wolf Holy Land, he became even more powerful. After defeating all the disciples of the same level, he began to spar with his senior brothers and sisters. Almost all the disciples he could find were beaten up by him. He even took the initiative to spar with the elders when he was still a disciple." The City Lord said in a deep voice, "He didn't care if he could win. Even if he was injured, he would still fight."
The four of them frowned when they heard that. Although such people were rare, they did exist.
"After his strength improved and he became an elder, he completely became a martial arts fanatic. He didn't teach disciples at all. Instead, he focused on cultivating. If he wasn't cultivating, he would find people to spar with. It's said that the elders of the Heavenly Wolf Holy Land are very afraid of him. "The City Lord continued," He doesn't know how to control his strength and often causes trouble.
"Now that he has become a level-six Heavenly Master, if he continues to fight in the Heavenly Wolf Holy Land, he will probably destroy the Holy Land. Therefore, the Sect Master directly asked him to leave the mountain. The royal family arranged a position for him as the Prefecture Overseer and he returned to the southwest region."
Wan Kedong and Song Ge nodded when they heard that. Song Ge said in a deep voice, "He is a martial arts fanatic and a level-six Heavenly Master. Generally, martial arts fanatics won't spar with people who are weaker than them. It shouldn't have much to do with us. "
Wan Kedong nodded and said, "We are all there to deliver the congratulatory gifts. Do you think he will fight with us?"
However, after hearing their words, the City Lord shook his head and sighed. He said, "If only it were that simple. It's impossible for him to fight with us. However, for a martial arts fanatic, even if he doesn't do it himself, he wants to watch others fight."
"Watch others?" Wan Kedong was stunned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Someone just sent news from Wanliang City. They said that the new Prefecture Overseer's celebration is not going to have a song and dance performance but a martial arts competition." The City Lord frowned and said in a deep voice, "Invite the strongest representatives of the nine cities in the Southwest Region to fight on the stage. Each city will send out three people, and the city that wins the championship will receive his reward."
"What reward?" Song Ge asked.
"I don't know. He hasn't told me yet." The City Lord said in a deep voice, "However, what kind of reward can a martial arts maniac come up with? It's not worth looking forward to. Moreover, his order is that even the City Lord can participate."
As he spoke, the City Lord frowned and looked at the three of them solemnly. "More importantly, if the three contestants are ranked in the bottom three, there will be punishment!"
"Punishment?!" Wan Kedong and Song Ge's bodies shook as they hurriedly asked, "What punishment?"
"I'm not sure, but I heard that it's already been decided. The punishment will be very heavy." The City Lord said in a low voice, "Especially the one ranked last. I heard that the City Lord will be replaced, and the taxes will be increased by 30%!"
"What?!" Wan Kedong and Song Ge were shocked again. They gritted their teeth and said, "The tax is 30% higher. How can we survive?"
The City Lord glanced at the two of them, sighed, and did not speak.
Wan Kedong and Song Ge looked at each other. Song Ge said to the City Lord, "City Lord, don't worry. Although the strength of Black Wolf City is not at the top, it's definitely not at the bottom. Guangyi City, Wanliang City, and Old Yang City don't advocate martial arts so much. Their strength is definitely much weaker than ours. Maybe we can really compete for the top three? "
"That's true. However, this thing is not about the overall strength, but the strength of three people." The City Lord shook his head and said, "There are too many variables in this. Moreover, everyone is at the peak of Level 5. No one has absolute confidence. I asked you to come here not only to talk about this, but also to decide which three people we will send to participate in the battle. "
As soon as he said that, Wan Kedong and Song Ge fell into deep thought.
"Let me talk about myself first." The City Lord looked at the two of them and said seriously, "I'm at the peak of Level 5. Wood and water dual attributes. I have no advantage in a one-on-one battle. Moreover, I'm old and have long passed my prime. Although I don't mind fighting, for the sake of the overall situation, it's better if I don't participate. "
Wan Kedong and Song Ge nodded slightly. This was true, and the City Lord was not declining. They were very clear about the City Lord's strength. If he really participated in the battle, there was almost no chance of winning.
"Brother Song and I must participate." Wan Kedong said in a low voice, "There's only one person left. It would be great if our cousin was here. His strength is definitely not inferior to the two of us. If the three of us participate together, we will definitely get a high ranking."
"That's right." Song Ge nodded and said, "We've only left Black Wolf City for about half a day. Why don't we send someone back to call him? He will catch up soon."
Speaking of this, Song Ge looked up at Liu Lan and frowned. "Although Alliance Leader Liu is also at the peak of Level 5, I'm worried that she doesn't have much combat experience. Moreover, Alliance Leader Liu is the future of the Blood Symbol Alliance and Black Wolf City. It would be bad if she was injured. "
Hearing this, the City Lord turned to Liu Lan and asked, "Alliance Leader Liu, what do you think?"
Liu Lan frowned slightly. Actually, with her personality, she really wanted to participate in the battle. After all, this was a rare opportunity for her to grow. However, this was a serious matter. She could not make the decision for herself. After thinking for a while, she looked at Lu An.
"Alliance Leader Lu, what do you think?" Liu Lan asked.
Lu An was slightly stunned. After thinking for a while, he said, "My suggestion is the same as the two Alliance Leaders'. This is a serious matter. We should let the former Alliance Leader make the decision."
Hearing Lu An's words, Liu Lan could only nod in disappointment. She said to the three of them, "Then send someone to call my father over."
"Okay, it's decided!" Seeing that Liu Lan had agreed, the City Lord immediately decided. "I'll send someone back to Black Wolf City immediately and ask Liu Zhengtang to come over!"
After discussing in the City Lord's carriage, Liu Lan and Lu An returned to their own carriage. The carriage was very big. There was a table in the middle of the carriage. The table was filled with dishes prepared by the chefs. Lu An was eating normally. However, Liu Lan did not have much of an appetite. She did not even take a bite.
Seeing this, Lu An said softly, "Alliance Leader, are you thinking about the battle?"
"Yes." Liu Lan was stunned. After coming back to her senses, she nodded and said, "Didn't you promise me that you'll call me Xiao Lan when it's just the two of us? Don't change your mind just because I'm the Alliance Leader. "
Lu An smiled bitterly and said, "You don't have to worry about the battle. You'll definitely represent Black Wolf City on stage."
Liu Lan was stunned. She quickly asked, "Why?"
"Because the former Alliance Leader won't participate," Lu An said with a smile. "The former Alliance Leader definitely won't come. When the time comes, you'll be the only one who can participate."
"You said that my father wants me to go and train?" Liu Lan asked.
"Yes." Lu An nodded and said, "Also, I heard that you've been sparring with the former Alliance Leader for the past two months. In the end, your chances of winning were very high. This is obviously an opportunity to train you. The former Alliance Leader definitely won't give it up. "
"Are you serious?" Liu Lan asked happily.
"Yes," Lu An smiled and said, "The former Alliance Leader dotes on you so much. He'll definitely know that you want to go."
After hearing Lu An's words, the smile on Liu Lan's face became brighter and brighter. She picked up her chopsticks again and started eating without any pressure.
"It would be great if there was a battle between Level 4 Heavenly Masters." Liu Lan said unwillingly, "At that time, you'll definitely be able to suppress all the heroes and let others see your strength."
"Forget about me. Although I want to train, I'm not interested in this kind of limelight." Lu An said with a smile.
"There are some things that you can't not do just because you're not interested!" Liu Lan looked at Lu An and said jokingly, "Maybe this time, you'll really represent Black Wolf City on stage!"
