Who is Sun Wei? One of the 136 referees appointed by the emperor. During the local election, his power was greater than many officials in the court, but why was he bowing at this time? Who was worthy of his bowing?
Facing Sun Wei, Lin Jing was extremely respectful and did not dare to neglect him at all. A single look from the latter was enough for him to figure out for a long time. But at this time, Sun Wei's attitude was extremely low, without the previous majesty, and what he exuded was a heavy respect!
Although Lin Jing had one arm, he was not blind. When he looked at the person Sun Wei was looking at, his face turned pale. But when he turned around, he saw that four chairs had been moved to his side. To show respect, Lin Jing had no choice but to arrange their seats next to him, but he felt a little regretful. Because the people standing up in the audience were Xia Xiao's family members!
The grievances between Lin Jing and Xia Xiao had spread, and everyone in Rongcheng knew about it. Wouldn't it be a joke to let them sit next to me at this time? And with Lin Jing's strength, he couldn't compare with Xia Jinghong at all. But at this time, they had already left the audience seats.
Xia Jinghong returned the gift, but when he walked to the seat of honor, he still looked at Sun Wei to express his gratitude. At times like this, Xia Jinghong would always remember the people who took care of his Xia family.
Xia Xiao almost forgot when the Xia family sat at the top seat last time, but it must have been a long, long time ago, because in this humiliating year and a half, let alone the top seat, there was no seat for them anywhere in the world. Xia Xiao looked at Sun Wei and remembered his face. He would repay the favor!
Compared to the auditorium, the upper seats are much more spacious and tidy, and the whole venue can be taken in. But in fact, Xia Jinghong didn't want to come up. He didn't want to show off, but in front of so many people, it was hard to refuse!
In the eyes of everyone, Xia Jinghong sat next to Lin Jing, and the three followed him.
The previously silent audience seats soon became lively with many discussions.
"Who are those four people?"
"It seems to be Xia Xiao's family."
"Why can you sit in such a position, on an equal footing with the city lord?"
"Are you stupid? Xia Jinghong used to be a fourth-rank Zhongwu General, and his military rank should have been a third-rank Yunhui General. So what if he sits in this position? Can the city lord's official rank be compared with his?"
“That’s true!”
…
As it was getting late, Sun Wei didn't waste any words and said loudly:
"The rules have been read out before. In short, it is fair, just and open. The first match is between Rongcheng Lin Tian and Longwei Chang San!"
The two youngsters were supposed to go on stage, but many people didn't have time to watch, and Xia Xiao was no exception. He knew his father too well. The latter knew about his spiritual hunting. Now that he had the opportunity to sit next to Lin Jing, he would not let that matter go easily. His father was not only a man who doted on his wife, but also extremely protective of his own shortcomings. He was famous among the officials of the same rank in the imperial capital!
After Lin Tian and Chang San saluted, they did not rush forward at the first moment, but looked at their father. He had lost an arm and his face looked ugly, as if covered with frost.
"I know you're very strong, but it's really inappropriate for you to be looking around."
Chang San said, and launched an attack. When Lin Tian counterattacked, Lin Jing was only worried about Xia Jinghong beside him. He felt that the latter was a great danger, and those strong and powerful arms seemed to be able to twist his head off alive.
"Lord City Lord."
Lin Jing was immediately shocked, and Xia Jinghong finally spoke. This extremely oppressive man looked forward, watching Lin Tian's competition, but with some anger as a father in his heart.
"General Xia."
Lin Jing's answer seemed powerless. Now it was not possible to just say hello to each other and move on.
"Thanks to you for taking care of Xia Xiao during this period, otherwise he wouldn't have made such obvious progress!"
Lin Jing smiled apologetically, but the moment his mouth lifted, Xia Jinghong turned his head, his eyes showing a ferocious and vigilant light. Then, Lin Jing's pupils shrank, and cold sweat ran down his forehead. Lin Jing was also a cultivator, at the peak of the Condensation Realm, but facing Xia Jinghong, he was just an ant and dared not move. That kind of oppression was indescribable.
"But as a human being, you should not be too self-righteous, let alone be too smart. I played these little tricks with my son when he was a child."
Xia Jinghong spoke again, which made Lin Jing's hair stand on end, but he still turned around and bent over and said:
"Thank you for your teaching!"
Xia Jinghong stopped answering. If Lin Jing was not a father, he would have killed him after the local competition. But he calmed down his anger. After all, Xiao'er was fine, and Lin Jing had lost his arm.
Xia Jinghong pays more and more attention to Xia Xiao. He has his own calmness and talent beyond Xia Xu. If he continues like this, he will surely be able to shoulder the sky of Daxia. If it is true as the prophecy says, he will also save the world from suffering.
"In the first match, Rongcheng Lin Tian wins!"
The battle of less than two minutes opened the first stage of the local selection. But as the winner, Lin Tian's face was cold and he didn't show any joy at all.
"Brother Lin Tian is awesome."
Yu Ling handed him a towel to wipe his sweat, but he ignored her. Even if he liked someone who had tried to please Xia Xiao, he would not bother to have anything to do with them.
Lin Tian sat back in his seat and just looked in the direction of his father. Lin Jing sat in his seat with an ugly face and dared not speak. This look made Lin Tian sad.
"The second match, Rongcheng Yu Ling vs. Longgang Pan Rui!"
Yu Ling ran into obstacles everywhere and was furious. After going on stage and paying her respects, she rushed out like a ghost!
“Come on! Come on!”
Yang Zhen knew Pan Rui's strength, and he was definitely no match for Yu Ling, but at least he couldn't lose too badly. However, Pan Rui, who was in the late stage of Xinglu, was knocked down by Yu Ling, who was in the middle stage of Ningzhong, before he could last more than three moves.
"oops!"
Yang Zhen slapped his thigh, feeling it was a pity, but he, who was sitting in the front row, quickly calmed down like the other city lords around him and continued to watch. Before Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang started, winning or losing didn't really matter.
Sitting in the contestant seat, Xia Xiao closed his eyes and rested. If it wasn't a rule that all contestants had to sit here, he wouldn't just sit there.
The noise in my ears gradually became louder. The audience who were shocked by Xia Jinghong before returned to their normal state, started to make noise, and expressed their opinions on the performance of the players on the field. As long as one person did this, the others would blindly shout and support the person they favored.
When the sound waves arose, countless voices came from all directions, surrounding Xia Xiao, making him feel like he was in a fighting city, but the bloodiness here was far less than that.
The contestants' seats were the quietest in the entire Yunxiao Building. They were all looking at their opponents, thinking about how to bring them down.
"The fifteenth match, Longgang Shushuang..."
Shu Shuang's participation in the local competition was controversial because many people knew that she was a member of the Zou Shou Church. She didn't want to enter Ningshen College because she liked Zou Shou Church, but this was the only way to accompany Xia Xiao.
When she walked onto the stage, she caused an uproar. Many people who thought Yu Ling was pretty began to call Shu Shuang's name, which made the former feel deeply frustrated. In front of Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang, Yu Ling could not raise her head at all!
For many young people who were influential in their own towns, coming to power meant failure.
"In the fifteenth match, Longgang Shushuang won!"
…
"The 21st match, Longgang Xia Xiao vs. Rongcheng Lin Yu!"
Xia Xiao opened his eyes when he heard his name. And Lin Yu was no stranger to Xia Xiao.
Among the Rongcheng Lin family, apart from Lin Tian, Lin Yu is the most talented, but he is unlucky and meets me in the first round. Xia Xiao, who has been taken care of by the Lin family many times, will not hold back this time!
