SURVIVAL

CHAPTER 101 - RANSOM

A cold saber light appeared in Yang Ming's line of sight, and he subconsciously shouted.

However, before Su Xing's blade could slash down, a loud and clear voice resounded throughout the entire auction venue.

Young Master, can you give me some face? Before Su Xing could finish his sentence, he noticed that the blade in his hand seemed to have been controlled by someone as it remained motionless. No matter how much strength Su Xing used, he was still unable to pull the blade up.

Young Master, can you give me some face? A middle-aged man walked over. Su Xing recognized him. This man was the steward of the Yuan Tong Auction House who had received him at the start.

I've thought of letting him go, but it's fine if he doesn't thank me. Rather, he threatened to kill me in this life. Do you think I'll let the tiger return to the mountain? Su Xing said solemnly.

Haha, I think this must be Young Master Yang's momentary anger. The butler looked at Yang Ming and laughed, Am I right, Young Master Yang?

When Yang Ming heard the butler speaking up for him, he quickly nodded and said, Yes, yes, yes. The butler is right, I was just angry with him.

Su Xing was silent for a moment. After a long while, he raised his head and stared at the butler and asked, What if I don't want to kill him?

The butler's expression froze for a moment, then he laughed: Prince Su, you better think about it. You should know that this is Bike County, and this is the territory of the Yang family.

Su Xing knew that even if he wanted to make a move now, with this butler here, he wouldn't be able to kill Yang Ming no matter what.

Young Master Yang is frightened, it's better for you to go back and rest early! The butler said to Yang Ming.

Yang Ming left. However, the moment Su Xing stepped out of the door, he noticed a crafty look flashing across his eyes.

Young Master Su do not blame me for this, I am doing this for your own good. That Yang family's reputation here is well-known, if you kill him, you will definitely face a difficult situation.

The butler smiled and said, I know. You want to place your trust in Grandmaster Ximen and Miss Yang, but do you really think that they can protect you just because they are esteemed guests of County Governor Manor?

Su Xing's thoughts had been exposed. Indeed, Su Xing's initial plan was to provide Xi Men Qiao with some valuable information. Since these two people were inviting him to participate in some pavilion's Dou Conference, they would naturally not just stand by and watch him be killed.

Furthermore, Su Xing had a feeling that the identities of these two people were definitely not simple.

The butler shook his head before turning his gaze back to Ximen Qiao and the others. Moreover, do you really think that if I didn't make a move earlier, you would be able to slash down? It's impossible for Grandmaster Ximen to watch you do such a thing. He was only kind enough to leave this chance to save her to me.

This is my territory. If Young Master Yang is harmed here, they will definitely vent their anger on our auction house. Furthermore, if I do not intervene, they will likely settle the score with me. That's why Master Xi Men has been so slow.

When Xi Men Qiao heard these words, he gave a faint smile, confirming the butler's words …

This young master of the Yang family should indeed be killed. If he could, perhaps I would have done it long ago.

"Little brother, some things are not as simple as you think they are on the surface. The Yang family is not just the number one family in the Bic County, they are more terrifying than you can imagine. Young people, you can understand if you act a little rashly, but you have to know your limits.

Xi Men Qiao was like an old man. He did not directly blame Su Xing for his recklessness, but he had slowly extracted the connection between them.

Su Xing had never been a reckless person. Otherwise, he wouldn't be alive right now.

In the end, he had still underestimated the current situation.

From the words of the auction house's butler, as well as those of Xi Men Qiao and the rest, Su Xing faintly felt that it was not that simple. He thought that there must be some hidden meaning behind those words.

In short, this trip to the Great Zhou was not as boring as he had imagined.

Young Master Su was so impressive just now. Even the dignified young master of the Yang family has to lower his head and breathe to you. After this little girl saw this, her heart is pounding so hard!

When he didn't see the person, he first heard his voice.

Su Xing turned around. The Auction House's chief auctioneer, Miss Lulu, was staring at him with an ambiguous gaze. Occasionally, she would even give him a coquettish look.

Su Xing had never come into contact with such a woman before. She was mature and dignified, but no matter if it was her bones or the words she spoke, she gave off a fox-like feeling, causing one's heart to itch.

To a boy like Su Xing, who had never experienced the affairs of a man and a woman, this kind of woman undoubtedly possessed an extremely strong killing power.

Young Master Su, it's getting late. Let's go find a place to eat first. There are some things that have to do with the Pavilion Battle Assembly that I need to tell you.

At this moment, Yang Rong stood up.

For some reason, Su Xing felt as if there was an invisible repulsive force fluctuating between the two of them, causing him to suffer an unexpected calamity.

Hehehe, Young Noble Su, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Could it be that you don't want the money anymore? Miss Lulu held a storage bag in her hand and casually waved it.

Oh, oh, oh. Oh, right, I almost forgot about that. Su Xing received the storage bag before stuffing it into his waist pouch.

Young master, do you really trust us so much? Why don't you count us down? Yang Rong hooked her arm around Su Xing's.

En... No need, just a little bit of money. If I don't even have that little bit of trust, why would I look for you all to work together!

Su Xing waved his hands as he prepared to leave. However, just as he was about to step in, he seemed to recall something.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally turned around. He looked at LuLu and the housekeeper once again and said, I want to help you little Zhao of the auction house to redeem himself. How much is the ransom?

As Su Xing spoke, he took out the storage bag from his pocket and prepared to pay.

Young master has taken a fancy to our little Zhao? Miss Lulu quipped, We don't have those brothels here. The girls here are worth a lot, especially someone as pretty and capable as Little Zhao.

Doing business with these businessmen is really tiring.

Su Xing smiled calmly and said, Tell me, how much is it?

Seeing Su Xing's attitude, Miss Lulu knew that he wasn't joking. Thus, she turned her gaze towards the butler beside her.

The butler paused for a moment before chuckling, "Forget about the money. Since Young Master Su has taken a liking to Little Zhao, then let's do it this way. We'll agree to let him have his freedom. This can be considered as a form of apology for what happened just now!

CHAPTER 102 - PRELIMINARIES

Needless to say, this steward of the Yuan Tong Auction House truly knew how to conduct himself.

Prince Su's strength is already extraordinary at such a young age. In the future, he will definitely become someone extraordinary as well. It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning. I just hope that I can be friends with Prince Su.

After the butler finished speaking, he shouted, Little Zhao, come here for a moment.

Little Zhao took small steps and ran over, Butler, you were looking for me?

Little Zhao, this Young Noble Su has redeemed your body. From now on, you will follow him. The butler said lightly.

Little Zhao's expression changed slightly, but he quickly recovered and said, Yes.

Since that's the case, hurry up and pack up. Let's go with Young Noble Su! the butler said again.

Wait, At this moment, Su Xing spoke up. He smiled and said to Little Zhao, Little Zhao, you don't have to follow me, and I have no other intention than for me to redeem you. I just hope that you know that a person's fate is in your own hands, as long as you don't give up on that desire.

Su Xing took out a portion of the gold coins from his storage pouch and handed them over to Little Zhao.

Live well, your life is not only filled with misery and laughter. There are many wonderful things in life waiting for you to explore!

With that, Su Xing left the auction house while humming a small tune. Xi Men Qiao and Yang Rong followed closely behind him.

Little Zhao, you've met your benefactor! The butler sighed.

Little Zhao stared at the thin yet incomparably tall figure, as though something sparkling and translucent was spinning in his eyes.

Don't worry, young master. I will live on well.

...

After leaving the auction house, Su Xing followed Xi Men Qiao and Yang Rong to find a restaurant. He planned to have a meal first.

I thought you were interested in that little Zhao and wanted to buy her back to serve as a maid. Who would've thought … The moment they sat down, Yang Rong began to talk about this matter. From her expression and tone, Su Xing knew that she was very satisfied with what she had done.

Miss Yang, those words really hurt my heart, Su Xing curled his lips and pretended to be sad. Don't tell me that in your eyes, I'm the same as Yang Ming, who can't even walk after seeing a beauty?

Hehe, I didn't say that. Yang Rong chuckled and said softly, But when Miss LuLu talked to you just now, your performance was exactly the same as the young master of the Yang family!

Eh … Su Xing wanted to retort, but that seemed to be the reality.

Speaking of that young master of the Yang family, with his character, he will definitely not let this matter go.

Su Xing, in this period of time, you should stay with us at County Governor Manor. When the Conference starts, I will bring you along to the Conference and during this period of time, I will help you clear your knowledge of array formations. In order to help you become a true second grade spirit array master before the Conference begins. "

Everything will be listened to by the Master, Su Xing did not have any objections to this. He asked, But, I heard from the Master that this Pavilion Battle Assembly is a matter of the six counties in the south, and the participants must be representing each county. Now, Master, you suddenly want me to participate in this pavilion Battle Assembly.

You might not know this, but every time, the participants in the Pavilion of Arena are chosen through selection. However, the county governor's residence has a special privilege, and it will definitely occupy a spot. This is to ensure the direct leadership of the county governor's residence.

Xi Men Qiao explained, Originally, the county governor gave this quota to Rong'er. Since you came, this quota will naturally be given to you. This way, even the Yang family would have nothing to say.

But, if you give me the quota, then what about Miss Yang? Su Xing asked in confusion.

Yang Rong smiled and said, What else can we do? Naturally, it's to participate in the preliminaries and fight our way up one step at a time!

How can that be? For no reason at all, I took over the spot that should have belonged to you, and then I even had a girl like you represent me in the preliminaries. This … Isn't this just showing how useless I am!" Su Xing did not agree with this method.

Prince Su, this is the best way out of this predicament.

Yang Rong explained softly, "It's not that we look down on your strength, but you need to know that if you were to participate in the Qualifying Competition, the Yang family, in order to take revenge for today's events, would definitely think of ways to find trouble with you during the competition. They might even use underhanded methods and sabotages, but I'm different, I'm a guest of County Governor Manor, and they don't dare to do anything to me.

Alright, it's decided then. You were quite a decisive person just now, why are you so long-winded now?

Yang Rong poured a cup of tea for Su Xing as she smiled, We value this Pavilion Battle Assembly even more than you. You can rest assured!

Although Su Xing was unwilling, he didn't say anything after seeing how confident Yang Rong was.

When does the preliminaries start? Su Xing asked.

In half a month. Yang Rong answered, At that time, all the sects and powers in Bike County will gather together to prepare for the selection of the representative for the Martial Competition.

Alright, Su Xing could only nod his head before adding, If Miss Yang feels that anything is amiss, I can always be a substitute for this preliminaries.

...

Bic County, Yang Family.

When Yang Ming limped home, the moment he walked into the house, he was discovered by the Yang Family's current head, Yang Clay.

What's going on? Yang Clay shouted at Yang Ming, Did you go out to cause trouble for me again?

Father, it's such an injustice! This time, your son really did not cause any trouble!

He cried, Father, I went to the Auction House today. You should know that I only saw Miss Yang from County Governor Manor and greeted her. I never expected that I would be beaten up by a young man. He almost killed me. If it wasn't for the steward of the auction house, your son … Your son will probably never see your father again.

You said someone wanted to kill you? Ridiculous! Who doesn't know that you're my son in Bike County? Who ate a bear heart leopard and had the guts to kill you? Did you provoke something that I shouldn't have, causing the other party to be unable to endure any longer and kill you?

Really? Father, why don't you believe me? Yang Ming cried like a pear blossom in the rain, If you don't believe me, you can just ask around. Presumably, this matter has already become a storm in the city.

CHAPTER 103 - COUNTY GOVERNOR MANOR

Yang Ming's crying made Yang Clay frown. This kind of thing was known as soon as he asked about it. Yang Ming didn't need to use this kind of excuse to lie to him.

Have you investigated the other party's background? Yang Clay asked in a deep voice.

I only know that this person has a deep relationship with County Governor Manor's esteemed guest, Miss Yang. Furthermore, she is very strong. I don't know anything else. Yang Ming honestly told her everything he knew.

Is it related to County Governor Manor?

Hearing this, Yang Clay, who had just relaxed, frowned again. After a moment of thought, he hardened his face and said to Yang Ming, The Pavilion Battle Assembly Qualification Competition is around the corner, let's put this matter aside for now. During this period of time, you shouldn't go out and cause any trouble for me.

But … Yang Ming was a little unwilling.

There's nothing that can't be said. Since the County Governor Manor still represents the imperial government, there's no need to make the relationship between the two of us too tense. Yangkai pondered and said, Let's wait a little longer, it won't be long before our Yang family replaces us. At that time, you can do whatever you want.

Yang Ming could only accept this loss.

Gongzi, we'll let that guy go just like that? On the way back to the backyard, Yang Ming's underling continuously whispered into Yang Ming's ear, That guy is too cocky, we were almost killed by him just now!

Of course I won't let it pass, Yang Ming gnashed his teeth and said. He dares to be so arrogant in front of me, I will kill him no matter what.

Yang Ming stretched and twisted his neck, then continued, Go and check this guy's background for me, and keep an eye on his every move.

Yes, young master.

...

Su Xing followed Xi Men Qiao to County Governor Manor. After a night of rest, he followed Xi Men Qiao and Yang Rong to meet the county governor early the next morning.

Big sister Yang, big sister Yang.

As they were walking on the road, a voice suddenly rang out from not too far away. Su Xing raised his head and saw two men standing there.

As for the one who called Big Sister Yang, he had a big build and seemed like a big one. In an instant, he had attracted Su Xing's attention.

Big sister Yang, good morning! This person's face was brimming with youth and vitality. When he spoke, his tone was slightly childish, making it difficult for Su Xing to recover from his strong physique.

This is the young master of County Governor Manor. His name is simple. He's only fifteen this year. Just call him by his name. There's no need to be too restrained. Yang Rong introduced them to Su Xing from the side.

Fifteen years old? As Su Xing looked at the tall and sturdy man before him, he couldn't react for a moment.

She was actually younger than he was. How did she grow up to look like this? She was in such a hurry!

This is a disciple from County Governor Manor. His name is Dong Chao. He is one of the disciples who represents County Governor Manor in the selection competition. Yang Rong then introduced another man in blue to Su Xing.

This is Young Noble Su Xing. Yang Rong said to the two people again, This time, he will represent Bike County to participate in the Pavilion Battle Assembly.

As soon as he said that, Dong Chao's expression changed. He said, Miss Yang, you mean he will directly get that exclusive slot?

Yang Rong nodded, but Dong Chao just waved his hand and objected, Miss Yang, isn't this spot yours already? How can you give it up to someone else so casually?

Senior brother Dong, with Young Noble Su's strength, you can afford the spot. Yang Rong smiled.

No, absolutely not. However, Dong Chao still firmly denied it, Since he has the strength, he can naturally participate in the selection. How can he occupy the spot that should have belonged to you, Miss Yang, I definitely do not agree.

As Su Xing looked at this man, whose face was filled with dissatisfaction, a hint of disgust arose in his heart.

Senior brother Dong, I will discuss this matter with County Governor Jane. There's no need for you to get involved. It's best to prepare for the preliminaries!

When Yang Rong saw Dong Chao's anger, the smile on her face instantly disappeared. Yang Rong originally wanted to rope him in, but she didn't expect him to be such a petty person. Yang Rong knew about her little thoughts, but she didn't say anything about it.

However, now, this guy dared to directly question her decision, which made Yang Rong very uncomfortable.

Yang Rong's reaction stunned Dong Chao on the spot. The woman who was always polite to him changed her expression towards a man who suddenly appeared. Dong Chao also felt bad in his heart.

His appearance was simple, but his limbs were well-built, and his brain was also very simple. He didn't think too much, but seeing Yang Rong's slightly cold face, he quickly said, Big sister Yang, is he very strong?

Yes. Yang Rong nodded.

Then I want to fight him. Simply put.

Yang Rong smiled and said, If you want to fight, you have to let us meet your father first.

Oh, oh, then go. Father is in the hall. After you see your father, come find me!

With a simple smile, he said to Su Xing, Since big sis Yang said that you're very powerful, then you must be. I want to have a fight with you later.

I will definitely accompany you. Su Xing laughed.

With regards to this simplicity, Su Xing felt that he truly lived up to his name. Putting aside his outer appearance, he truly was like a small child — very simple.

Su Xing followed Yang Rong and co. into the main hall where a middle-aged man was waiting for them.

Miss Yang, Master Xi Men.

Su Xing noticed that when the county governor greeted Yang Rong and company, he took the initiative to clasp his hands and bow. It was obvious that he was extremely courteous, causing Su Xing to unconsciously guess the identity of Yang Rong and company.

Is this the little brother who almost killed the young master of the Yang family yesterday? The county governor sized up Su Xing and said with a smile, You're so extraordinary at such a young age. You're probably many times stronger than my good-for-nothing son.

Lord County Governor, please do not say it like this. Junior truly cannot afford it, Su Xing hurriedly clasped his hands and bowed as he said, I thank Grandmaster Ximen Family for thinking highly of me and is willing to give me this opportunity. If junior has done anything wrong during this period of time, I hope that you can forgive me.

You are too polite. Since Grandmaster Ximen has taken a liking to someone, there is naturally something extraordinary about him. You should stay here peacefully for the time being. If you need anything, just say it. I will definitely satisfy your needs. Su Xing, on the other hand, was simply too reserved.

County Governor Jane, don't worry. With Brother Su, if nothing unexpected happens this year, the chances of the Pavilion Battle Assembly winning will increase by at least thirty percent.

Xi Men Qiao said directly, Now, the most important thing is to win a few other people to participate in the Pavilion Battle Assembly.

CHAPTER 104 - SITUATION

That's right. Right now, the most important thing is to get a few more spots!

There are only five spots in each county for the annual Pavilion Battle Assembly. Now that Brother Su has taken away the spot, we must obtain one spot from the other factions.

Unfortunately, with so many forces in Bike County, my dignified County Governor Manor is actually out of the top in terms of strength. I still need the help of Grandmaster Ximen. How shameful! He shook his head and sighed.

County Governor Jane, there is no need to blame yourself. The Yang family is now the strongest family. The other few great powers have slowly started to attach themselves to it. We were originally on the same side, so it is only right for us to help. Xi Men Qiao said.

I wonder what is going on in Bic County? Su Xing asked curiously.

Even the position of County Governor Manor was so awkward. This Bic County was not simple!

Su Xing remembered that in Yanhuang County, the status of County Governor Manor was unshakable. After all, it was the direct jurisdiction of the imperial government. If it was too weak, how could it manage a county city? However, the situation here did not seem like this.

There are many powers in the Bic Group, but those six are the only ones who are truly famous.

They are the Yang Family, the Firestorm Way, the Mysterious Feather Gang, the Azure Flame Sect, the Dashing Sky Peak, and the Absolute Beginning Villa. The six powers, including our County Governor Manor, will send three people to participate in the selection competition, and from there, choose the other four spots. Together with five people, we will head to the Flowerpool Group to participate in the Pavilion Battle Assembly.

Of course, if you want to participate in the Qualifying Competition, you can rely on these seven great forces. There is a disciple named Dong Chao in our County Governor Manor who is from a small faction. However, because his talent and strength are not bad, I intend for him to represent County Governor Manor in the Qualifying Competition.

So that was the reason. No wonder why Dong Chao always looked so proud. He was one of the candidates for the preliminaries.

Then what is the form of this selection? Su Xing continued to ask.

This time, it was Yang Rong's turn to explain. She introduced the two categories to Su Xing at a leisurely pace, "The selection is divided into two types. The selection is by force, while the selection by Spiritual Array is.

The reason for this is because neither force nor Spiritual Array will be missing from the Great Hall. Among the five of them, we must have a Spiritual Array Master specializing in Spiritual Arrays and a cultivator with tyrannical cultivation. Only with the cooperation of the two can we have a better chance of victory.

That is true, but it is not absolute, Xi Men Qiao continued, In the last Pavilion Battle Assembly, there was only one Spiritual Array Master, and the other four are all cultivators. However, this Spiritual Array Master was well versed in Spiritual Arrays, and under the protection of the four cultivators, he forcefully ascended to the seventh floor, and finally obtained the victory of the Pavilion Battle Assembly. "

Therefore, after the preliminaries, there will be a simple adjustment. However, normally there won't be much of a change.

Sigh, every time the selection is held, our County Governor Manor would suffer nothing. We can only use this one and only spot to participate in the Pavilion Battle Assembly. How shameful!

He shook his head and looked at Yang Rong, saying, Miss Yang, this year's selection will depend on your performance. I hope that you can win an extra spot for our County Governor Manor.

I'll do my best. On the other hand, Yang Rong seemed very relaxed.

After leaving the hall, Ximen Bridge and Easy Life went back to busy themselves with other things. Meanwhile, Su Xing followed Yang Rong to find a simple solution and agreed to finish the fight with him.

Su Xing was only at the third level of the Spirit Opening Realm. He purposefully let go of the water so that Su Xing wouldn't lose too badly. The battle between the two of them lasted for a long time before Su Xing managed to barely defeat him.

Even though Su Xing had defeated him, he wasn't sad at all. On the contrary, he just carelessly hugged Su Xing's shoulders. That intimate look of his made Su Xing feel as if he had already known Su Xing for a long time, causing him to be unable to adapt for a moment.

You're stronger than me. I'll call you Brother Su from now on. Simply patting his well-built chest, he said.

Alright. Su Xing was rather happy as well. He extended his fist and hit Li Yao's stomach as he said with a smile, In the future, I'll need you, the county governor's son, to take care of me in Bike County!

Young Master Su, you should get used to it today. I have something to do with Grandmaster Xi Men. He said for you to prepare. From tomorrow on, he will teach you some basic knowledge of Spiritual Arrays.

Yang Rong gave a few words of advice to Su Xing before leaving.

At this moment, Dong Chao, who had been hating Su Xing ever since he came to County Governor Manor, walked over.

Senior brother Dong, Brother Su is really amazing. He said simply on the side.

Dong Chao Chao smiled symbolically and looked at Su Xing.

He smiled disdainfully as he leaned close to Su Xing's ear and coldly said, "Su Xing, right? There are some things junior brother Jane doesn't understand, and I'm not willing to reveal in front of him. With your strength, I don't know what method you used to make Lady Yang voluntarily give up her position in the Pavilion Battle Assembly.

You better consider what you should do and what you shouldn't do. Don't blame me for not reminding you in the end.

Dong Chao patted Su Xing's shoulders and added, Miss Yang is not someone you can touch. You'd better stay away from her. Otherwise, you know the consequences!

Dong Chao narrowed his eyes. After what he thought was a powerful deterrence, he crossed his hands behind his back and left arrogantly.

Su Xing looked at the back of the figure and was powerless to retort.

He patted his simple shoulder and sighed, In the future, you'd better follow me more. If you follow that guy, what kind of future do you have?!

Su Xing followed the simple instructions and circled around County Governor Manor. After familiarizing himself with the surroundings of the residence, he returned to his room and began to cultivate in peace.

The next day, the west gate bridge arrived as promised and began to teach Su Xing some basic knowledge about Spiritual Arrays.

On the third day, he gave Su Xing a set of spirit diagrams. It was the most common Spirit Convergence Array, and he began to use this as the foundation to teach him even more profound knowledge.

As time continued to pass, Su Xing's cultivation also never stopped.

Finally, under the anticipation of tens of thousands of people, the Bic County Pavilion Battle Assembly finally began.

CHAPTER 105 - MATCH START

It was still early. Inside the room, Su Xing sat cross-legged as he immersed his consciousness into his sea of consciousness.

There, the Fire Spirit Bead floated. Under Su Xing's control, a beautiful flame floated out.

Staring at the ball of flame, Su Xing slowly released his spiritual power and flew towards the ball of flame.

For the past half month, Su Xing had been repeating the same routine every day, one that was filled with pain.

Very soon, after the first wave of soul force continued to burn from the flames, it finally couldn't hold on any longer and dissipated.

Su Xing quickly released the second wave of his spiritual force and continued with his previous actions.

This continued for six cycles before Su Xing's door was knocked.

Wait!

Su Xing opened his eyes and let out a breath of foul air. At this moment, due to the training of his mental force, his entire face was extremely pale.

This was the side effect of every intense training session. As long as he rested for a bit, he would be able to recover. It was not a big problem.

Su Xing took out two pills from his storage bag and threw them into his mouth. Then, he got down from the bed and opened the door.

Outside the door, Yang Rong stood coquettishly.

There was a threshold of distance between the two of them, and Su Xing could smell a faint fragrance floating in the air.

Prince Su, it's about time. Yang Rong said.

Alright, I'll be right there.

Su Xing returned to his room and tidied himself up before following Yang Rong to the main hall of County Governor Manor.

In the main hall, Dong Chao had already arrived.

With the county governor leading the way, they set off in a grandiose manner.

The venue for the preliminaries was set at the biggest martial arts practice field in Bike County. When Su walked in, there were already a lot of people inside.

In the center of the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, there was a square arena where each of the major forces would sit.

Open your dog eyes and look. Any random person who stands here will not be someone you can deal with.

While they were waiting for the competition to begin, Dong Chao once again arrived beside Su Xing and mocked in an extremely disdainful tone, If you know what's good for you, quickly give up this slot. Don't waste this hard-earned opportunity.

I can give it up. Unfortunately, Master Xi Men and County Governor Jane did not agree. I have no other choice.

Su Xing didn't get angry. Instead, he shrugged his shoulders and smiled to Dong Chao, What's more, what does it have to do with you whether I give up this spot or not? Do you think you are very powerful? If not for the face of Master Xi Men and County Governor Jane, I would have done you a disservice long ago!

You … Dong Chao didn't expect that Su Xing would dare to talk to him in such a manner. He was furious.

Simple. Get up and let's change our seats. Su Xing couldn't be bothered to lower himself to the same level as Dong Chao, so he directly changed seats with the other party.

County Governor Jane, I trust you have been well since we last met. Seeing your glowing red face and spirited face, I assume that you have already prepared yourself for everything!

At this moment, a middle-aged man of about the same age as Chang walked over.

This person is the Absolute Beginning Villa's Manor Lord Xiong Jingsheng. He is not attached to the Yang family like the other powers. On the contrary, his relationship with our County Governor Manor is not bad.

Seeing the newcomer come over to strike up a conversation, they enthusiastically introduced themselves to Su Xing.

Haha, Villa Owner Xiong, you are in a good state too. This time, you should have made ample preparations! Simple and polite.

Sigh, although I have confidence in my son, this year's second young master of the Yang family is also a monster, and one that cannot be underestimated. There are also several other sects with hidden ace attacks. This year's preliminaries are not simple at all! Xiong Jingsheng sighed.

Let's do our best. Now that the Yang family's power is growing, our position in Bic County is in danger. If not for the support of the imperial government, the Yang family would have already attacked us. Besides, the imperial government is in turmoil lately. I'm worried …

Therefore, this time, we had better hope that we can win one or two more spots. Even if we can't necessarily defeat the people from the other counties, but at least we can let our juniors go to the Blossom Pool Tower and meet some fortuitous encounters.

As they chatted, more and more people began to talk about entering the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, and the empty seats around them slowly filled up.

When the other six powers were all gathered, the county governor of Bic County simply stood out and walked to the central arena.

The triennial Pavilion Battle Assembly is about to be held. Now that we are all gathered here, the four participants who will be participating in the Gathering of the Pavilion and represent our Bike County will be selected. The rules are the same as before. Everyone understands, so I will not introduce you anymore.

However, although the competition is important, I hope that every contestant participating in the preliminaries will be able to meet the requirement.

Because the rules of the Pavilion Battle Assembly stated that the participants must be below the age of twenty, the participants of this time's selection were basically all the most elite members of the younger generation of the various clans and sects.

At the same time, although the entire Martial Arts Practice Hall was quiet, the atmosphere was incredibly gloomy.

Su Xing noticed that all the disciples from the sects, including the County Governor Manor, were watching them from the shadows. They were looking at each other.

Although the preliminaries were held for the Pavilion Battle Assembly, from another point of view, it was also a clash between the various factions in the Bike County.

No one wanted to lose to the other at this moment and lose face. Hence, their gazes were all competing with each other.

However, Su Xing was an exception. He really didn't feel the slightest bit of pressure. In any case, he was just called here on the spur of the moment.

Sitting beside him, Easy appeared to be nervous, and his body was covered with sweat.
