For aristocratic families like the Jin Family and the Bai Family, their status in Bei 'an City was no less than that of the Castellan. However, the Castellan was under the jurisdiction of the dynasty. As the local official, they naturally had to be polite to him.
"I believe that some of you have also received the news that a group of people from Xi 'an City will enter our Bei' an City soon. These people are the instructors and students of Xi 'an Academy. Nominally, they are here for sightseeing, but whether they are really here for sightseeing or not, we have not received the exact information yet. In order to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations, today, I ask you to bring the most talented youths in your clan to form a strong team of students, so as to balance out the students of Xi' an Academy. I wonder if any of you have any opinions on my decision?"
The entire hall quieted down. They all looked at the Castellan with different expressions.
"I ask that you all temporarily put aside your prejudices against each other and work together to protect the interests of Bei 'an City."
With just one sentence, he forcefully gathered everyone together. Although many aristocratic families did not agree, they still curled their lips. "Let's do as the City Lord says. Right now, the most important thing for us is to work together to defend against the enemy."
As soon as one person spoke, there were others who agreed. One family, two families, three families … Very soon, many of the aristocratic families in the hall agreed.
"To protect the reputation of Bei 'an City, the Jin Family is duty-bound. Today, I brought Yijue here. What do you want to do? You just need to say a word." The Master of the Jin Family said passionately. A simple sentence, but he pulled himself to a high and mighty level.
Many people did not agree with him, but they were secretly annoyed. How could the Jin Family steal the limelight?
"I can also join the team, but I have a condition."
Suddenly, an arrogant voice sounded. Everyone looked over. Wasn't the person who spoke the most talented young master of the Bai Family, Bai Jingqi?
The Castellan was also slightly startled. Then, he asked with some displeasure, "Young Master Bai, you want to negotiate with me?"
"That's right!" Bai Jingqi arrogantly admitted it, then raised his hand and pointed behind the City Lord with no regard for anyone else.
"My condition is for this trash to scram out of the team. She is not allowed to be in the team that I am in."
Humph, this ugly freak actually made a fool of his younger sister in public. He naturally wanted to take this opportunity to teach this ugly woman a lesson.
When he found out that Schilling's Shadow had defeated his sister, he wanted to go to the Xi family and teach her a lesson, but he didn't expect to hear that she had entered the city … So what if she was hiding in the city? If he wanted to, he could teach this Schilling's Shadow a lesson anytime he wanted.
Not letting her join the team was just the beginning. He would make her look worse in the future.
The City Lord frowned and looked at the Patriarch of the Bai Family. He wanted the Patriarch of the Bai Family to reprimand Bai Jingqi, but the Patriarch of the Bai Family merely stroked his white beard. His voice, which sounded like a smile, was filled with a faint fierceness.
"Lord Castellan, Jingqi is untalented. He only broke through to the eighth level at the age of nineteen. It can be said that he has fought for Bei 'an City."
"Eighth level warrior? Bai Jingqi broke through to the eighth level before Jin Yijue? Is this true?" Someone exclaimed.
