Jiang Zhi looked at the teasing smile on Qin Lin's face and said calmly, "I don't like him. I've made it clear."
Qin Lin just smiled and said, "Miss Jiang is so interesting, it's not surprising that so many people like her."
"Indeed." What else could Jiang Zhi say? She naturally agreed with Qin Lin's point of view. There was nothing she could do about it since she was so pretty.
Qin Lin chuckled: "Miss Jiang is very confident."
"Then should I be humble?" Jiang Zhi asked him slowly.
"As long as Miss Jiang is happy." Qin Lin replied with a faint smile on his face.
The two chatted for a while, and then Jiang Zhi left Qianjin Building.
Today is the day of the Four Nations Competition.
Su Yuchuan sent the young talent over early.
Below the blacksmith shop.
"I'm bringing two friends with me. I think your young master won't mind." Jiang Zhi smiled slightly.
The monk appeared from behind Jiang Zhi with a cool voice.
The young scholar was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook his head: "The young master will definitely not care."
"Okay!" Jiang Zhi grinned.
The three of them got on the carriage.
The young talent drove the carriage slowly out of the alley.
When the carriage drove onto the busy street, a noisy sound could be heard faintly from afar.
The carriage slowly stopped.
"Miss Jiang, envoys from other countries have arrived. Let's avoid the main street first." The young talent spoke slowly.
"Okay." Jiang Zhi replied.
After the young talent stopped the carriage, the curtain behind him was suddenly pulled open.
He turned back in surprise: "Miss Jiang?"
Jiang Zhi held the curtain with his right hand and jumped off the carriage neatly: "We will go and join in the fun, and we will be back soon."
The young scholar paused and quickly responded, "Okay, I'll wait for you here."
The monk and Liangsheng got off the carriage and followed Jiang Zhi. The three of them went to the main street and squeezed into the crowd.
The royal family of Beisheng Kingdom and the children of Beisheng's noble families were riding horses and walking slowly towards them with soldiers behind them.
They rode uniform dark white horses, and they all wore uniform dark tights with jade-colored headbands on their foreheads.
Jiang Zhi discovered that all the people sitting on the horses were women.
"Wow, they are all beauties." Jiang Zhi exclaimed.
"The Queen of Beisheng values girls over boys, so the noble families there all prioritize cultivating girls. It seems to be related to their cultivation techniques and swordsmanship. However, the talents of girls born there are stronger than those of boys." The elder brother next to him dutifully explained to Jiang Zhi, "So the outstanding children of the royal family and noble families are basically girls."
Jiang Zhi looked at the woman on the horse and felt that he saw two faces that he had some impression of.
Ji Yu and Gu Qu'er from the Yidan Sect had met before in the ancient Xuanxu Secret Realm, but they haven't seen each other much since then.
It seems that they are all descendants of the Beisheng family.
The three horses in the front were led by three women with slender figures, straight backs and faint yet calculating smiles on their pretty faces.
Jiang Zhi didn't recognize any of them, but just from their cultivation levels, she couldn't tell the levels of these three women, nor could she tell which ones were from the royal family and which ones were from aristocratic families.
After all, the aristocratic families and the royal family are one group, and the two are inseparable.
Not long after the royal family and noble families of Beisheng left, people from Xiqi also arrived.
On the black-brown horse in front, the young man opened his arms and greeted the people around him enthusiastically: "Hello, Tianchen people!"
No need to think, it’s Xichen Jingqing.
The clothes worn by the royal family and the children of noble families in Xiqi were not of uniform colors, but their hair accessories were also very exotic, with colorful headbands, beautiful braids, long silver ornaments, and silver headbands.
The appearance of Xiqi people is full of profound and exotic charm.
Xichen Yuye next to him had a blank expression on his face, forming a sharp contrast with Xichen Jingqing who seemed to have ADHD next to him.
"Junior Sister Jiang!" A cheerful shout came from the audience.
Xichen Jingqing stood straight on the horse, stretched out his arms and greeted Jiang Zhi.
Everyone in Xiqi followed Xichen Jingqing's gaze and looked at Jiang Zhi.
Jiang Zhi in the crowd smiled back silently.
Everyone looked at her, and she went from being a spectator to being the object of attention.
"Ah, you are Jiang Zhi, the girl that Young Master Su is pursuing and is well-known throughout the city, Miss Jiang!" The eldest brother next to him exclaimed in surprise.
Jiang Zhi was embarrassed and just smiled without answering.
Xichen Jingqing changed from greeting with one hand to greeting with two hands.
Jiang Zhi could only smile helplessly.
"Junior Sister Jiang, remember to come and watch Third Senior Brother's game today!" Xichen Jingqing laughed out loud.
Jiang Zhi nodded silently.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
"That's enough." Xichen Yuye said coldly.
Xichen Jingqing ignored him and just lay on the horse in a leisurely posture, with his arm resting on the back of his head. Then he stretched out one hand and patted the horse's butt, saying leisurely: "Horse, call me when you get there."
Xichen Yuye's chest heaved, then he lowered his eyes and suppressed the urge to kill the other person.
Xiqi's group left.
People from Nanjin have also arrived.
Carriages passed slowly by, and people could not see the people inside.
The decorations on the carriage are also intricately carved, and when you pass by, you can smell a melodious fragrance, like the scent of Nanqing flowers, which are unique to Nanjin.
The envoys from the three countries had all left, and the crowds of people who had gathered on the streets to watch the fun gradually dispersed.
Jiang Zhi and the other two returned to the carriage.
The carriage gradually drove into the Tianchen Palace.
The young talent took Jiang Zhi to the Su family's seat.
Jiang Zhi then sat in the same row with Monk Liangsheng.
This row is quite near the front, in the second row. The ones in the front row are the elders of the Su family who look older.
Su Yuchuan's status in the Su family should be considered as that of an outstanding disciple.
After all, these seats are arranged according to status.
Jiang Zhi, thanks to Su Yuchuan, sat in the second row from the front.
Qin Lin, who was sitting in the first row opposite her, stretched out his hand and greeted her.
Jiang Zhi also nodded slightly.
The Royal Arena is huge, and the seats are also in a huge circular venue.
The envoys from the three countries had their seats clearly divided, all sitting in the middle.
There are others like Qin Lin who do not participate in the competition, but come in to watch the competition based on their own identities.
Jiang Zhi glanced over and found a few people who looked familiar, and also saw his fifth senior brother Nan Yuzhou.
The seats of the Nanyu Boat are where the royal family and disciples of the Nanjin Kingdom are located.
Given Nan Yuzhou's identity, it's no surprise that he's sitting there. He's the deposed crown prince of Nanjin Kingdom, and he came along this time as well.
No one knows his true strength, and the image he presents to the world is that of a womanizer relying on his good looks.
He was also successfully deposed and became the deposed crown prince.
I'm afraid this visit is just a formality.
Nan Yuzhou noticed Jiang Zhi's gaze, so he tilted his eyes to the side and smiled at her with a charming smile.
Jiang Zhi was silent for a moment, not feeling anything, because he had smiled in the same way to the previous female cultivator who had been staring at him.
