BXBX NOVEL Chapter 170 - 167: Returning to the Great Wilderness 1
After saying that, Jin Cheng laughed heartily and said, “Brother Yang Chen, don’t be polite. These guards are always complaining about having nothing to do. If you take them out for a spin, they’ll be more than happy.” “Young Master, what does Young Master Yang Chen want us to do?”
“Yeah, we’ve been so idle that our hands are starting to rust, we have been looking for something to do.”
Jin Cheng said impatiently, “Take them to the Great Wilderness for a spin, there are some tricky characters there. Are you up for it?”
“What, the Great Wilderness?”
“Now it’s interesting, tricky characters in the Great Wilderness? I love biting tough bones.”
“Enough, if you really have to deal with tricky characters, you’ll be more wilted than anyone else. You got the energy just hearing about the Great Wilderness.”
“How come Young Master Yang didn’t choose me? I also want to go for a walk in the Great Wilderness. At my level, I could be a Local Tyrant in the Great Wilderness, hahaha!”
When these guards heard that the tricky characters were from the Great Wilderness, they immediately laughed happily. How tricky could they be when it comes to the Great Wilderness? Some guards were even more upset because they weren’t chosen by Yang Chen.
It’s not surprising that they have this idea because the gap between Great Wilderness and Liaocheng is too vast.
The environment and resources of the Great Wilderness are not on the same level as Liaocheng.
Jin Cheng saw this scene, laughed loudly, and said, “Brother Yang Chen, what do you think? These guards of mine are very excited.”
With such enthusiasm from these elder brothers here, I, Yang Chen, am relieved.” Yang Chen smiled and said, “Jin Cheng, without saying too many thanks, if there is a place where I, Yang Chen, can be of help in the future, I will definitely not hesitate. Going up the knife mountain and down the Sea of Flames is too cliché, but if there is anything I can do, just say the word!”
That’s how he is, if someone respects him a foot, he will give back a yard!
“Friends should help each other.” Jin Cheng said slowly, “Speaking of which, Brother Yang Chen, when do you plan to leave?”
Yang Chen thought for a moment, “These brothers of the guards will need some time to prepare, so let’s set off tonight.”
“Well, let’s set off tonight. Old Knife, go arrange some good places for Brother Yang Chen to rest for a while.” Jin Cheng said.
Yang Chen clasped his hands and quickly excused himself.
At this moment, Jin Cheng and He Liancheng were standing together, watching Yang Chen’s retreating figure, and He Liancheng couldn’t figure out what their young master was thinking. He couldn’t help but say, “Young Master, are you serious? Giving him ten guards from the City Lord’s Mansion is a bit too high of an estimate.”
“Not high. Not high at all. Did you really think I was joking when I said I’d give him a hundred in the beginning?” Jin Cheng’s mouth twitched, “No, I never joke. He is my friend, because of that. Uncle He, don’t say anything like that in the future. ”
“Young Master, do you really consider him a friend?” He Liancheng’s eyes widened.
Being considered a friend by Jin Cheng was a great honor.
He had been following his young master for many years and was well aware of Jin Cheng’s pickiness towards friends. Ordinary people would find it very difficult to catch Tin Cheng’s Dharma Eve. Not to mention being Tin Cheng’s friend, even getting Jin Cheng to talk to them would be difficult.
Jin Cheng could see He Liancheng’s doubts and said slowly, “Brother Yang Chen is so young and has entered the Spirit Martial Realm. That’s one thing. His Pill Doctor’s Way is another thing. These two qualifications make him qualified to be my friend, Jin Cheng. The crucial point is that Yang Chen has a clear identity and is not of immoral character. What’s wrong with me, Jin Cheng, making a friend like him?”
“I, Jin Cheng, never skimp on friends.”
He Liancheng heard this and murmured, “Indeed, when I saw Yang Chen last time, he was only at the Refinement Realm Peak. When he returned to the Great Wilderness this time, he unexpectedly leaped into the Spirit Martial
Realm. This was a huge breakthrough. Young Master, he has reached the Spirit
Martial Realm, maybe he can help you in that competition.”
“You mean the Genius Battle held every five years by Beishan Main City?” Jin Cheng was stunned, “Uncle He, you and I think alike.”
“In that Genius Battle, various cities in Beishan County, as well as various Major Sects, will select geniuses. Once a genius shines in it, they will inevitably receive the favor of those Supreme Sects. Even better, they might be able to study in Beishan Main City. It’s just a pity that the selection competition is so demanding, requiring geniuses to be at least at the First Level of Spirit Martial Realm and under the age of eighteen.”
Jin Cheng smiled bitterly, “I’m out of the question. I am now twenty-six years old, and only at the Fourth Level of the Spirit Martial Realm. At the age of eighteen, I was barely at the First Level of the Spirit Martial Realm. My Martial Arts Cultivation level makes it quite a stretch to pass the selection competition. Even if I barely pass the selection competition, I’m afraid I would be eliminated in the first round of the knockout competition.”
“In the end, the requirements for the Genius Battle are too strict. Basic Competition, Selection Competition, and Knockout Competition. Each one is a contest among the geniuses of various cities. However, Yang Chen is now only at the First Level of the Spirit Martial Realm, is he truly capable?” He Liancheng suddenly became a little worried.
Jin Cheng muttered, “Brother Yang Chen’s martial arts cultivation is indeed a bit low, but I see infinite possibilities in him. In theory, there should be many geniuses in Beishan County, and I shouldn’t have any expectations for someone who came from the Great Wilderness. Still, a sliver of hope is better than no hope at all. There are too few people in Liaocheng who can enter the Spirit Martial Realm before the age of eighteen.”
“Huang Chiyang will definitely participate, and we must not let Huang Chiyang shine in this competition. Otherwise, our City Lord’s Mansion will lose its position in Liaocheng. If Yang Chen can pass the selection competition, our
City Lord’s Mansion will have hope to sit in this position for another ten years!” He Liancheng said.
Jin Cheng squinted, “That’s exactly what my father is worried about. The Huang Family has always had ill intentions. They’ve been plotting and scheming, and my father would know what they’re up to, wouldn’t he? They want to get good results in this Genius Battle and get the recognition of the people from Beishan Main City. At that time, even my father would have a hard time holding on to his current position.”
“As for Yang Chen…” He Liancheng clenched his teeth.
“Let’s talk about it later, there’s still some time before the Basic Competition begins. There’s no rush now.” Jin Cheng’s thoughts flickered for a moment and then said.
“Yes, let’s see if Yang Chen is worthy of such attention from the Young Master first.” He Liancheng said.
It was not until night fell that Yang Chen led He Liancheng and the other nine elite guards of the City Lord’s Mansion directly to the Great Wilderness. A group of transcendent powerful ones in the Spirit Martial Realm rushed forward, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared without a trace, never to be found again..
