Lin Xuan glanced at Yu Fei, initially not wanting to pay any attention to him.
Unsolicited kindness is often suspicious. But as the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face, and Yu Fei's attitude was quite good. Besides, he needed to learn more about the Sky Patrol Bureau and even the Xuanhuang Ancient Kingdom.
Yu Fei is clearly the kind of shrewd and sophisticated scion of a wealthy family with some connections; he's adept at maneuvering. Such people are often very well-informed, and talking to him might yield some useful information.
Of course, there's another way: kill this guy and then use the system to extract a fragment of his memory. However, this method is actually quite foolish; only someone with a screw loose would kill someone in Qianyang County.
Moreover, Lin Xuan himself is not a murderous maniac, so naturally he has no such intention.
He subtly observed Yu Fei, but said calmly, "Just call me Lin Xuan. May I ask what brings you here, Brother Yu?"
"So it's Brother Lin."
Yu Fei grinned and said, "Actually, there's nothing else. I just saw that Brother Lin looks like he's heading to Qingyun City to participate in the Sky Patrol Guard assessment, so I came over to say hello. If possible, we can travel together."
"Judging from your appearance, Brother Yu, you must be quite familiar with the Sky Patrol Guard assessment?" Lin Xuan smiled slightly and said casually, "I only obtained a Sky Patrol Iron Token by chance. In fact, I am completely clueless about the Sky Patrol Bureau and the Sky Patrol Guard assessment."
"Oh, I see!"
A glint of light flashed in Yu Fei's eyes, and his gaze toward Lin Xuan became noticeably more fervent. A broad smile spread across his face as he said, "Perfect timing. I know a little about the Sky Patrol Guard assessment. Why don't I tell you about it, Brother Lin..."
"If it's convenient, then let's talk about it!" Lin Xuan nodded with a smile.
Yu Fei was quite perceptive; that was exactly what he wanted to hear. Lin Xuan's smile deepened instantly.
Yu Fei was quick to understand. He looked around and then whispered, "The Sky Patrol Guard's assessment is different for each prefecture. Our Qingyun Prefecture's assessment should be divided into three stages. The first stage is the selection process, which picks out those who do not meet the requirements."
It's actually a comprehensive selection process that considers factors such as talent, innate qualities, and luck.
The second test is a test of character and willpower, while the third test is about combat strength..."
It has to be said that Yu Fei knew quite a lot of information. After chatting with Lin Xuan for almost an hour, he finally stopped and smacked his lips.
Yu Fei talked a lot, and when he got excited, he was incredibly eloquent, his spittle flying everywhere.
He spoke with great enthusiasm, and Lin Xuan listened attentively.
The information Yu Fei provided was something he couldn't find in Yan Hui City. The content of the Sky Patrol Guard's assessment was secondary; Lin Xuan was confident that with his strength, passing the assessment shouldn't be difficult.
He valued more the information about the Sky Patrol Guard and the situation of the Xuanhuang Ancient Kingdom.
Therefore, in the following time, Lin Xuan would intentionally or unintentionally steer the conversation in this direction during his conversations with Yu Fei.
Before you know it, several more hours have passed.
"Those going to Qingyun City, get ready. Teleportation will begin in one incense stick's time."
Suddenly, just as Lin Xuan and Yu Fei were having a pleasant conversation, a deep voice rang out, directly interrupting their conversation.
"Brother Lin, it's finally our turn."
Yu Fei stopped and looked at the altar in the center of the square.
Lin Xuan smiled and nodded, his gaze sweeping across the surroundings like lightning. He noticed that there weren't even a hundred people in the pavilion, and it wasn't time yet, so why was the teleportation activated ahead of schedule?
Just then, a commotion broke out in the distance.
A young couple, surrounded by a crowd, entered the square and headed straight for the altar.
"Holy crap, who is this person? They're getting such treatment, going straight to the altar."
"I was wondering why we were teleported ahead of schedule. It turns out a distinguished guest is coming. Looks like we're benefiting from this."
"I wonder whose young master or young lady it is that could get the teleportation done ahead of schedule."
...
Many people were talking amongst themselves, all looking at the young couple with envy in their eyes.
"So they are the young patriarch of the Zhao family in Donglin and the young master of Yunlang Mountain. No wonder they receive such treatment."
At this moment, Yu Fei, who was next to Lin Xuan, muttered something softly.
Lin Xuan was taken aback, glanced at Yu Fei, and casually asked, "Brother Yu, do you perhaps know those two people?"
"I do know them, but they don't know me." Yu Fei smiled bitterly. "Whether it's the Zhao family of Donglin or Yunlang Mountain, they are both first-rate forces in our Qianyang County, which are not comparable to a third-rate family like mine."
"Brother Lin, we've really struck it lucky this time. It seems these two are going to Qingyun City via the teleportation array, probably to participate in the Sky Patrol Guard assessment, just like us. We've actually benefited from this."
"Oh... such a powerful force would send people into the Sky Patrol Division?" Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows and asked in a deep voice.
“Of course. The Sky Patrol Division is the pillar of my Xuanhuang Ancient Kingdom. Becoming a Sky Patrol Guard is the dream of many people. Even the lowest-ranking Sky Patrol Guard has a status comparable to the lord of a county.” Yu Fei’s eyes suddenly gleamed, and he said with great interest, “Entering the Sky Patrol Division and becoming a Sky Patrol Guard is the fastest way for ordinary people like us to turn our lives around, without exception.”
"Let alone the Zhao family of Donglin and Yunlang Mountain, even among the top sects of my Xuanhuang Ancient Kingdom, many of the true disciples of the Supreme Ancient Sect hold positions in the Sky Patrol Division..."
"I see!"
Lin Xuan nodded, but inwardly he sighed. It seemed he had underestimated the Xuanhuang Ancient Kingdom. It truly lived up to its reputation as the core of the human race.
"Why did such a top-tier power eventually perish? And how did the entire Ancient Era ultimately crumble?"
Lin Xuan's mind was filled with many thoughts. He had a vague feeling that if he could rise to a high position in the Sky Patrol Bureau in the future, he might be able to gain some understanding of the secrets of the Xuanhuang Ancient Kingdom, or even the entire Desolate Ancient Era.
The Blood Sea World in the later cosmic era has undergone strange changes, and there must be a great secret hidden within it.
Lin Xuan had a vague feeling that this secret might be related to the Sky Patrol Division.
"Regardless, let's get into the Sky Patrol Division first. As for what happens after that, we can only plan for it step by step later..."
Lin Xuan muttered to himself, his pupils gleaming with a sharp light.
Just then, the young couple ascended the altar. At that moment, the deep voice rang out again: "All those heading to Qingyun City, ascend the altar immediately. The teleportation will begin immediately."
"Finally, it's time to leave!"
Everyone was overjoyed and, without saying a word, rushed out of the pavilion and headed towards the altar in the center of the square.
"Let's go, Brother Lin! Let's go up too! We don't want to miss the deadline."
Yu Fei smiled and greeted Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan nodded, and then, together with Yu Fei and the others, walked up to the altar.
