…
"Time's up!" Qiu Ping'an and another young swordsman opened their eyes.
However, just as he opened his eyes, the other swordsman's body shook and he fainted on the ground.
"What a pity. After finally holding on until the last moment, he still failed." Qiu Pinghe glanced at the young swordsman who was carried out of the field and sighed in a pretentious manner.
It sounded like he was expressing regret, but even a blind person could see the pride and gloating in his eyes.
"The villain is successful!" Jiang Yuzhe muttered softly.
"Don't worry, he won't be so proud for long." Mu Hanyan said with a sneer.
"Oh?" Jiang Yuzhe, Hua Yue and others looked at Mu Hanyan strangely.
Pride won't last long, so of course, bad luck is coming. Daring to offend the great playboy Mu, bad luck is inevitable. But Qiu Ping'an had already passed the assessment, and admission to Longyan College was a sure thing. Clearly, he was in luck. Yet, Mu Hanyan insisted that he was doomed, and so soon? Why?
"You will know soon." Mu Hanyan smiled mysteriously.
In the selection field, Qiu Ping'an had already raised his sword and practiced a few sword techniques. Then he slashed the sword at the trial monument. Sparks flew everywhere, and a sword mark about an inch long appeared on the trial monument.
There was a burst of cheers from the audience seats, obviously coming from the children of the Qiu family.
Although Qiu Ping'an's sword techniques were stiff and sluggish, and the power of his last sword was average, he obviously passed the test.
"Lord Gong, why don't you accept this person as your disciple?" This time, before Gong Hongru could speak, a middle-aged mentor stood up and said.
"Brother Yu, you have already accepted several disciples with good qualifications. How about I accept this one as my disciple?" another middle-aged mentor said immediately.
"Brother Tian, what you're doing is a bit against the rules. It was obviously me who fell in love with her first." Teacher Yu said dissatisfiedly.
"That being said, I think this boy's physique is just right for practicing my Zhengyi Mind Method. Perhaps it would be better for him to follow me." Instructor Tian insisted.
"Brother Yu, according to what you said, if he practices with me, it would be a waste of him, right?" Teacher Yu snorted coldly, his expression even more displeased.
"Brother Tian, I don't mean that. I just mean that with his aptitude, he is more suitable for practicing my Zhengyi Heart Method." Teacher Tian explained.
"In the end, it all comes down to the same thing, Brother Yu. I won't say much to you. Anyway, I was the first one to take a fancy to this boy, so he should be accepted as my disciple. Don't argue with me anymore." The face of the tutor surnamed Yu turned very ugly.
"Brother Tian, we have known each other for many years. Can't you just give us this little bit of face?" Teacher Tian also frowned.
The two men argued endlessly, and judging from Naga's attitude, they seemed to be about to fight if they disagreed.
"I didn't expect that Qiu Ping'an not only passed the assessment, but was also noticed by two instructors at the same time." Looking at this scene in surprise, exclamations came from all around.
When Mu Chengxuan passed the assessment earlier, the instructors had also had a debate during their discussion. Unexpectedly, when it came to Qiu Pingan's turn, the same scene was repeated.
"What's so strange about this? Although Qiu Ping'an's talent and strength are not as good as Mu Chengxuan, Guan Shanhe and others, he is still much stronger than the young swordsmen of civilian origin. These two mentors are still young, and no matter their strength or status, they cannot compare with seniors like Long Congyuan. They are not qualified to accept Mu Chengxuan, Guan Shanhe and others, so they chose Qiu Ping'an." Someone said thoughtfully.
"That being said, since he's been chosen by two mentors at the same time, I'm afraid Qiu Ping'an's future achievements may not be inferior to Mu Chengxuan and others. I'm afraid that the title of the number one family in Dongzhou County will fall into the hands of the Qiu family sooner or later."
"Not only is the Qiu family the number one family in Dongzhou County, if they were to move into the capital, I think they would have a place among the eight great families!"
There was a lot of discussion everywhere, and everyone looked at Qiu Ping'an with envy.
Just as the two instructors were arguing fiercely and the crowd around them was buzzing with discussion, suddenly, a clear voice rang out throughout the room: "Qiu Pinghao, you're cheating!"
The sound was not loud, but it was like a thunderclap, echoing in the square.
"That's impossible! This enrollment election was supervised by Master Gong himself. How could there be cheating?"
"Could it be that he's jealous of Qiu Ping'an passing the test and is lying to smear his innocence?"
"That's impossible. Slandering a noble family's children in front of Master Gong and the head of such a noble family is courting death, isn't it?"
With doubts in their hearts, everyone looked in the direction where the sound came from.
At this time, Mu Hanyan was calm and composed, looking at Qiu Ping'an with a sarcastic smile on her face.
"Mu Hanyan, what nonsense are you talking about!" Qiu Pingan looked at Mu Hanyan angrily.
"Didn't you hear clearly? Then I'll say it again, you, cheated!" Mu Hanyan said with a sneer.
"Mu Hanyan, how dare you slander me in front of so many people? I'm going to kill you." Qiu Ping'an drew the long sword from his waist.
"What? Now that the truth has been exposed, do you want to kill people to silence them?" Mu Hanyan still had a smile on her face.
"How dare you slander the young master of my Qiu family? Do you really think that just because your Mu family is one of the eight great families in the capital, you can bully my Qiu family at will?" Qiu Zicheng, Qiu Pinghe and other members of the Qiu family also surrounded them aggressively.
Seeing that they came with ill intentions, Hua Yue and his companions drew their swords. The two sides were on the verge of a fight. The originally bustling square suddenly became deserted.
"Stop! Do you all think I don't exist?" At this moment, Gong Hongru's calm voice rang out in the room.
The expressions of Qiu Zicheng and the others changed, and they quickly put away their swords, but they still stared at Mu Hanyan with murderous eyes.
Mu Hanyan gave a wink, and Hua Yue and the others put away their swords.
"What did you say just now?" Gong Hongru looked at Mu Hanyan from afar with his eyes as fast as lightning.
"I said..."
"Sir, you must not listen to this kid's lies." Mu Hanyan was interrupted by the head of the Qiu family before she could finish her words.
The head of the Qiu family jumped out from the viewing area and said angrily, "This boy's name is Mu Hanyan. He is the son of the Mu family in the capital. Because of his naughty temperament, he is known as the capital's number one playboy."
"Oh, the number one playboy in the capital, he has quite a reputation." Gong Hongru said coldly with a stern face.
In the audience, Mu Zexian and the others secretly cried out in their hearts that something was wrong. Gong Hongru was a man of integrity and known for his impartiality. It was obviously not a good thing for him to hear that Mu Hanyan was the most dissolute playboy in the capital.
The old man from the Qiu family is really calculating. He didn't say anything, but right away he announced Mu Hanyan's name as the number one playboy in the capital. Naturally, he had an intention.
