Help Big Brother!
Senior Gui's mouth was wide open. He was so shocked that he could not say anything.
The herbs used to refine the Divine Power Pill were damaged, and Xiao Chen immediately thought of another pill to refine. Furthermore, Xiao Chen controlled the flame to such an extent that Senior Gui could not find an opportunity to destroy it. What kind of method was this?
Senior Gui was a Rank 3 Alchemist, but he knew that even if he studied for another hundred years, he would not be able to do this.
"Big Brother!"
After being stunned for a few seconds, Senior Gui finally accepted his loss and called out.
If Big Brother Gu Xuan had lost the bet before, he was somewhat unwilling to accept it. But now, there was a hint of heartfelt admiration.
The ability that Gu Xuan displayed this time was really able to compete with the alchemy masters that he had seen before.
Gu Xuan smiled. He knew that he had left an important mark on Senior Gui's memory.
"Brat, I was just joking. Just call me Gu Xuan in the future. How would I dare to be your big brother? That would mess up the seniority."
"How can that be?" Senior Gui was anxious again, "I am a man of my word. Since I have lost, then you are the big brother. I will listen to you in the future."
"Listen to me?" Gu Xuan was stunned at first. Then, his eyes lit up.
Given Senior Gui's current situation, these words might not be a joke. After all, he had said that he would not be the big brother. Normally, an expert would go along with it for the sake of face. Furthermore, they would have a good impression of him.
Gu Xuan was originally happy with this. However, this crafty Senior Gui seemed to be a man of his word. He really treated Gu Xuan as his big brother.
With the help of a King Grade expert, Xiao Chen could instantly sweep through the factions of the county. He could even gain the qualifications to speak with the Great Desolate Dynasty.
If he did not like someone, he could just get Senior Gui to blast them to smithereens. How satisfying would that be?
"Of course, I will listen to you. However, I am not free right now. There are some things that I cannot help you with." Senior Gui nodded.
"What are the restrictions? Tell me about them." Gu Xuan rubbed his hands and said. Such an expert definitely had a mission in the Gu Clan. It was impossible for him to order him around.
"First, I cannot leave the Gu Clan. Second, I cannot interfere with the internal matters of the Gu Clan. Third, I cannot help anyone in the Gu Clan."
"What's the difference between this and not helping me?" Gu Xuan rolled his eyes.
"Of course there's a difference. At the very least, I can protect your life. Of course, that's only if you're in the Gu family. If you're anywhere else, I can't help you even if I want to." Elder Gui said playfully.
"As long as it's in the Gu Clan?" Gu Xuan looked at Elder Gui with a burning gaze.
"What do you want to do?" Elder Ghost panicked under Gu Xuan's gaze.
"You don't have to care about what I'm doing. I just want to know that you can protect my life just because I'm in the Gu family. Of course, it's under the circumstances that it doesn't involve the internal strife of the Gu Clan. "Gu Xuan looked at Elder Ghost expectantly.
"Sure." Elder Ghost nodded his head indifferently. He thought to himself, What kind of trouble can a kid like you cause? Do you think you can provoke all the major powers in the county to come and kill you?
A smile appeared on Gu Xuan's face. Although he was only staying in the Gu Clan to protect his life, it also gave him more support. In the future, even if he caused a huge mess, Senior Gui would be able to cover it up.
"That's right, as the big brother, you can give me some of these Spiritual Herbs." Gu Xuan pointed at the Rank 2 Spiritual Herb field to the side.
His purpose for coming here today was to get some Spiritual Herbs. Becoming Elder Ghost's big brother did not equate to an increase in strength.
"I can't do that. The Gu Clan's resources are also prohibited." Elder Ghost shook his head. Before Gu Xuan could be disappointed, he changed the topic, "However, I've already recognized you as my big brother. Helping my big brother increase his strength is nothing."
…
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. The Marquis's Mansion's examination, the biggest event in the county, officially began.
There were hundreds of people participating in the examination this time. However, almost all of them were destined to return empty-handed. Out of the ten spots, nine of them were eliminated from the previous batch. There were a few geniuses who were re-evaluated this time. One could imagine how cruel it was.
Even Gu Feng, who had broken through to the Six Star Spirit Level, was swept out when he met the cultivators who were eliminated in the previous batch.
As for Qin Song, who was already a Nine Star Spirit Level, he swept through everything.
Most of the geniuses in the Marquis's Mansion were at the Seven or Eight Star Spirit Level. Qin Song could reach the Nine Star Spirit Level before entering the Marquis's Mansion. He could almost enter the top twenty geniuses in the Marquis's Mansion.
"Young Master Qin Song, I've lost!"
On the Marquis's Mansion's battle platform, an Eight Star Spirit Level martial artist bowed respectfully to Qin Song with a face full of admiration.
He was also a genius who was eliminated from the Marquis's Mansion last time. After leaving the Marquis's Mansion, he felt ashamed and entered the Flame Beast Mountain Range to train. However, he unexpectedly met a white-clothed old man.
That old man had taken him to travel around, and his strength had unknowingly increased. He had reached the eighth star of the Spirit Tier and comprehended a fourth-grade Human Tier Martial Art. He had thought that he would be able to take first place this time, but he had still been defeated by Qin Song.
"Thank you for letting me win!" Qin Song cupped his hands, but his face was still filled with excitement.
Taking first place in the Major Competition without entering the Marquis's Mansion was a rare achievement.
"What are you talking about? Young Master Qin Song didn't even draw his sword. If he did, I'm afraid I would have been defeated in three moves." The Eight Star Spirit Level martial artist smiled bitterly.
On the battle platform, only Qin Song was left. On the spectator stand next to him, an old man stood up. "Today, my son took first place in the assessment. It's the Qin Family's honor. Tomorrow, the Qin Family will hold a banquet for guests. Everyone who attends can receive a Body Refining Powder! I hope everyone will give us some face! "
The crowd instantly boiled up. Although the Body Refining Powder was not an elixir, it had ten percent of the efficacy of the Body Refining Pill. Its effect was extraordinary.
As one of the five major forces in the County City, the Qin Family could be considered rich and overbearing.
Qin Song also raised his head and suddenly sneered. "Today, I took first place, but I still have one regret!"
"There was a person who once challenged me to a fight and threatened to fight with me in today's assessment!"
"There was a person who once threatened to defeat me, but now he has disappeared without a trace!"
"Now I want to ask, Gu Xuan, you arrogant person who looked down on me. Where are you now? Why don't you dare to fight with me?"
Qin Song's voice was arrogant and overbearing. When it spread out, it made the originally boiling crowd even livelier.
When Qin Song took first place in the assessment, he actually challenged someone else. But who was this Gu Xuan? Why was Qin Song deliberately mocking and provoking him?
