Lin Zhong thought for a while and said, "Why don't you go find the deputy steward, so that if Wen Ning makes things difficult for you, there will be someone who can say a few words for you so that he doesn't dare to make things too difficult for you."
Tang Houde thought about it and decided that this was all he could do.
After Lin Zhong left, Tang Houde and Ruyi were in a dilemma about what gifts to give.
They only have six players left (Tang Guanghui withdrew). Even if each person collects ten taels of silver, they will only have sixty taels of silver. Sixty taels of silver is a huge sum of money for ordinary people, but for the foreign affairs of the Dragon and Tiger Sect,
As far as the hall manager is concerned, this kind of money is simply not worth it.
Ruyi wanted to take out the elixir in the storage bag and give it as a gift, but she thought about it and said, "I caused the trouble in the Wen family. I will be responsible for this gift."
She quickly selected sixteen jade boxes from the storage bag and gave them to Tang Houde: "If you want to give them, give them bigger ones. This is a panacea for refining the spirit-gathering pill. I think even the elders of the Foreign Affairs Hall, this
The ceremony is also very important."
Tang Houde was shocked. These elixirs were all over a hundred years old. Although they were low-grade elixirs, if they were bought with silver, each plant would cost more than tens of thousands. These sixteen plants were worth 160,000 taels of silver. This gift,
It's indeed big enough.
What's more, this is the elixir of the full-width gathering spirit pill.
"If we are not polite, how can we get the other party to stand up when the foreign affairs department manager bullies us?" Ruyi asked.
Tang Houde's face changed several times, and finally he made a decision. There was a firm look in his eyes: "This is the elixir for refining the spirit-gathering pill that you risked your life. You can't give it away so easily."
go out."
In fact, Ruyi was not very comfortable with giving gifts. In her previous life, she didn't like treating guests and giving gifts. She just forced herself to socialize in order to survive. Unexpectedly, treating guests and giving gifts would still be inevitable in this life.
She asked bitterly: "If we don't give gifts to the Foreign Affairs Hall, what will be the consequences?"
Tang Houde thought for a moment and then said: "Actually, the reason for giving gifts to the Foreign Affairs Hall is because there is room for human manipulation in the assessment rules. There are two levels in this assessment, one is to look at skill, and the other is to take the ladder. The second level is just a return.
There is not much space to operate, but at the first level, there is a lot of space to operate.”
"Isn't it obvious to see the skill in the first level? How is it possible that it can still be operated?" Ruyi was confused. Although the skill of physical cultivation cannot be seen without moving, it can be seen as long as the skill is exercised. It is the most difficult to operate.
It’s just skill, right?
Seeing everyone looking at her, Tang Houde felt that telling these children this was really a bit of a contamination of their minds. But the world was like this, so he had to say:
"The skill of the first level assessment is determined by attacking the intended target. A martial artist must be above the first level before the age of six, a martial artist above the second level before the age of eight, a martial artist above the third level before the age of ten, and a martial artist before the age of twelve.
Apprentices of the fourth level and above, martial apprentices of the fifth level and above before the age of fourteen, and martial apprentices of the sixth and above level before the age of sixteen can pass the test."
When Tang Houde said this, Ruyi immediately understood: "Skills cannot be manipulated, but age can!"
Tang Houde nodded: "Yes, you can operate at this age."
His eyes glanced at Daniu and Dashui, and Ruyi followed his gaze and looked at Daniu and Dashui.
Then, she understood that both of them had second-level martial arts skills, but they were both over eight years old.
If the old patriarch led the team, this would not matter at all, but this year he is leading the team.
He has not yet secured his position as the clan leader. If Daniu Dashui cannot enter the outer gate because of his age...
