…

During the conference, there were various activities, receptions, and exchanges.

But most of them have no luck with people like Lin Zheyu who have no background.

They were just brought in. Although they have the qualifications to participate in the martial arts exchange conference, they are just here to see the world.

The core of the conference has nothing to do with them.

"Brother Zhao, the conference has already begun, why don't you get on the stage?"

"If you become famous in one battle and are favored by other forces or sects, you will leap over the dragon gate." Li Yanming said with a smile.

He raised his glass and toasted Lin Zheyu.

Li Mengxi and the others went to attend the Wuji Sect's banquet. Neither of them were descendants of the Li family, so they couldn't follow them in.

Even if they are children of aristocratic families, only those direct descendants and genius disciples are eligible to enter, not everyone can enter.

This kind of martial arts exchange conference is a conference for disciples from various forces and sects to exchange ideas and increase their knowledge.

It is also an opportunity for them to make friends and expand their network.

Although Lin Zheyu felt a little pity, he didn't really care.

Being able to blend into this circle is already very good. Now that the skills are available, all that's left is to slowly improve your strength.

"Don't worry, the really powerful ones haven't taken action yet, so going up now is just a waste of energy."

Lin Zheyu shook his head and said.

He slowly sipped tea and listened to the stories told by the storyteller, feeling that life was very comfortable.

This kind of life, which is as plain as water and gradually accumulates strength, is very good.

"You are really patient."

"If I didn't know your details, it would be unimaginable that you could comprehend the seeds of domineering true meaning." Li Yanming said.

"Domineering is not bellicose."

"Only those from the God of War Sect are militants. I am a good person who loves peace." Lin Zheyu said with a smile.

"I really envy those children from aristocratic families!"

"I heard that at last night's banquet, several powerful masters exchanged ideas and expounded on their methods."

"The younger generation of disciples present have gained a lot of inspiration and insights. If they can embark on the path of becoming a master in the future, it will be much smoother."

"This is the real core of the martial arts exchange conference. We people are just here to join in the fun."

Li Yanming sighed.

From his words, we can hear his envy for the children of those aristocratic families and sects, and his helplessness and dissatisfaction with his own background.

Lin Zheyu heard him complain like this more than once.

"Why think so much? How many people can really become a grandmaster?" Lin Zheyu shook his head and said freely.

"Haha, Brother Zhao still sees things thoroughly."

"With Brother Zhao's qualifications and understanding, his future achievements will definitely not be inferior to mine."

"Brother Zhao, have you ever thought about which sect you want to join or join other aristocratic families?" Li Yanming asked casually.

"I have no plans for this moment."

"Those top sects do not accept warriors of my age."

"The inferior sects are not willing to be restrained in order to join them. As for joining other aristocratic families, that's even more forgettable."

Lin Zheyu picked up the wine, gestured to Li Yanming, and said with a faint smile.

"Brother Zhao's character is really unruly, free and easy."

"However, the road to martial arts is full of thorns and difficulties. Without someone to guide you and without enough training resources, it will be too difficult to achieve something."

"Although I admire Brother Zhao's character, I would like to advise Brother Zhao to seize the opportunity immediately. Don't miss it and regret it later."

Li Yanming said somewhat meaningfully.

Lin Zheyu smiled slightly and did not answer his words, but drank a drink silently.

This guy gave him the feeling that something was wrong.

The friendship between the two is obviously not deep, just a nod of acquaintance, but the other party shows that he is sincerely interested in him.

We are all adults, and we are no longer the age when we were young and without scheming.

Lin Zheyu guessed that the other party might have other purposes.

However, he didn't point it out. If the other party didn't say it, he wouldn't say it either. He just didn't pick up Li Yanming's words.

……

"It's so sudden. I heard that the entire Southern Barbarian region fell and was occupied by the Jiuyou Sect."

In the tea house, someone said in a surprised and uncertain tone.

"What, such a thing could happen?" the companion on the side asked in shock.

His voice rose several times, attracting the attention of others.

Even Lin Zheyu looked over curiously.

Those who can enter Wuji Villa are all respectable people.

Although most of the people sitting in the teahouse today are not qualified to participate in Wuji Sect banquets, their circle is also out of reach of ordinary people.

Lin Zheyu was very interested in many of the things these people talked about.

"Are you kidding? The Wei Dynasty sent so many troops there, and a large number of experts went with them. How can they break through the defense line?"

"Really, why did I lie to you!"

"I have friends in the God of War Sect. This group of militants from the God of War Sect has sent many talented disciples to follow the army to fight on the front lines."

"The latest news they sent back is that the entire southern barbarian region has fallen."

"The ancient demon clan and the Jiuyou Sect have joined forces, coupled with the restraint of the barbarians in the north, the harassment of the sea clan in the east, and the rebellion of the demons in the west, the Wei Dynasty is simply distracted and unable to do anything."

The person who broke the news said with confidence.

"The news will probably spread soon."

"The core members of the big sects and aristocratic families have known about it for a long time. You can get a lot of information just by asking around."

Lin Zheyu's perception is so sensitive that he can hear the conversations of several people clearly.

He was extremely shocked.

When I left Bafang City half a year ago, Bafang City was peaceful, without any news of war.

Even at the speed at which Jiuyou Sect attacks the city, it will take at least several years to reach Bafang City.

"Brother Zhao, where are you going?"

Li Yanming saw Lin Zheyu standing up and asked curiously.

Their location was a bit far away from the people they just talked to. Li Yanming's perception ability was relatively poor and he didn't hear the conversation of those people.

He noticed an exclamation coming from the distance, but didn't feel anything was wrong.

Such exclamations can be seen everywhere in the Wuji Sect, which is full of warriors.

"I'll go over there. Brother Yan Ming, please sit down for a while."

Lin Zheyu turned around and said something, and walked straight towards the people talking.

Many good-hearted warriors came around and joined in the conversation.

"Yes, it should have fallen half a month or a month ago."

"The caravan we sent to the Nanman area should have returned a month ago, but there has been no news yet."

"Since half a month ago, there have been fewer and fewer caravans coming out of the Nanman area. There is not even a single caravan these days."

"Many people have speculated that a powerful demon may have appeared along the way of the caravan."

"I didn't expect that the entire southern barbarian region fell. It's incredible!"

A strong man echoed.

"My friend, you said that the Southern Barbarians have fallen, and no one in such a large area has escaped to spread the news?"

Lin Zheyu squeezed into the crowd and asked.

Some of his former friends, masters, and senior brothers were still in Bafang City, and he felt a little worried.

If the entire area fell, I wonder if they would be okay now.

"How could it be spread?"

"The powerful men of the ancient demon clan secretly sneaked into the Wei Dynasty and cut off the connection between the Southern Barbarians and the Central Plains."
