Volume Two: The Two-Headed Dragon Kiki Chapter 115 Jones Fragrant
Because he came in through ticket evasion, Gu Nansheng didn't have a seat. He stood at the highest and farthest place in the stands, overlooking the entire fighting field. The fighting field was half the size of a football field. The ground was paved with granite, and there were two rest areas for the players.
Dozens of career-changing warriors are resting in the rest area. It seems that they are all juniors of the Jones family, candidates for this succession contest.
Gu Nansheng keenly captured the figure of a girl in white - Jones Xiang.
In the Jones family, non-bloodlines cannot become heirs, but they still have to participate in the heir selection competition. Because this competition is not only to select heirs, but also to identify the strength of the next generation and determine their status in the family.
The most powerful direct descendants are selected as the heirs of the family head, the less powerful direct descendants become elders, and the weaker ones are in charge of various affairs of the family.
The most powerful non-direct descendant becomes the leader of the family guard group, responsible for protecting the family. The less powerful ones become soldiers of the guard group. The worse ones are sent to some small cities to manage the family's small business in the edge cities.
"Sister Xiangxiang, Xiaoqing doesn't want to participate in this competition." Xiaoqing sat on her seat and supported her chin with her hands, looking unhappy.
Jones gently touched Xiaoqing's face, her eyes showing a trace of sadness and determination, "Sister, I don't want to fight, but..."
She remembered her mother who was seriously injured in the family court fifteen years ago. Her mother touched her face and the last words she said were: "Don't hate the family, and don't try to change anything."
She didn't understand the meaning of this sentence at the time, nor did she understand the look in her mother's eyes.
That kind of deep helplessness, that kind of suffocating pain, and at the same time, there is also a deep concern for my daughter.
Did the family make a mistake?
In fact, you are right. In this turbulent continent, this is just a last resort to protect yourself. Otherwise, as the family develops, the collateral and direct lines will gradually become divided and fight against each other, which will eventually lead to division. This is the reason why the family
Unbearable losses.
But why my mother?
Jones clenched her fists unconsciously. Even if she could not win the championship in this competition, she still had to show the dignity of her side family.
"Look, that's the great elder of the Jones family in Biluo City!" someone shouted out from the stands. As one of the four major families in Biluo City, the Jones family's elders hold real power, and their status is no better than that of the elders of the transferred warriors guild.
inferior.
Gu Nansheng narrowed his eyes and looked at the middle-aged man who walked onto the arena. Hehe, he knew this guy. It was Tim's father Tilun. Gu Nansheng had played against him at the Chengnan Market. He didn't expect that he was from the Jones family.
Great Elder.
Each step of Longdi was neither big nor fast, but he reached the center of the arena in just a few steps. He was wearing a gorgeous battle armor and a red cape on his shoulders. His whole face was red and full of high spirits.
Twenty thousand people cheered, including some young girls. Their admiration for the strong does not matter their age.
"Fellows of Biluo City!" Longdi did not use any amplification circle, but his voice resounded throughout the noisy venue like thunder on the ground. "Today, it is my Jones family's Biluo City branch that selects the family heir.
Today, thank you folks for coming to support us."
"My Jones family is one of the oldest families in the Rocky Kingdom, and this generation of young people is full of talents. There are a total of thirty-six candidates competing here."
"Let me introduce the guests present. First of all, I would like to welcome Mr. Longli, the Imperial Envoy. I am honored to have the support of the royal family for the internal selection of the Jones family!"
There was a small round of applause from the audience. People in troubled times respect heroes and the strong, and are really not interested in their favorites. Moreover, when Biluo City was invaded by the Scourge Legion, where was the kingdom?
Long Li's face looked a little ugly. Gu Nansheng felt a little strange why this old toad still stayed in Biluo City.
Immediately, he understood that the king should have set his sights on Ciyu again, hoping that he could serve the kingdom and finally get rid of Medusa lurking in the palace.
Hey, I saw a good show. I hope that Ci Yu is young and energetic, rushes into the palace and gets eaten by Medusa.
The scene was too cold, and Tilun was a little embarrassed. He hurriedly introduced the next person, "Then the distinguished enchanter, Master Dika!"
A white old man walked into the venue wearing a magic robe inlaid with gold. Master Dika's appearance was immediately greeted by bursts of cheers, which made Longli's face even more ugly.
"Then there is the president of the transferred warriors guild, Lord Sugard!"
The pale Sugard stepped onto the venue wearing a simple robe. His appearance made the audience excited. People chanted Sugard's name. Sugard just waved his hand and sat calmly at the VIP seat.
“Next is the patriarch of my Jones family in Biluo City—Cole Jones!”
Cole looks to be about the same age as Tilun. Today is an important day for the Jones family. Cole is also a handsome man. He steps onto the VIP table with quick steps, and cheers come and go.
"The last one! The genius warrior of the Jones family—Ci Yu!"
As soon as the word "Ci Yu" came out, the entire venue fell silent.
This name symbolizes absolute genius, strength, and the shame of being a soldier in Biluo City.
Nearly two thousand transferred soldiers in the city were picked on by a young man with one sword. It would be too embarrassing to tell anyone.
Ci Yu was dressed in a black suit and carried a three-foot long sword on his back. He silently walked up to the VIP table. I don't know who cheered first and shouted Ci Yu's name. For many young people, a strong person is
Idol, no matter which city he comes from.
More and more people began to cheer, mixed with the screams of girls.
"Ciyu!"
"genius!"
"Idol!"
"Ciyu, I love you!"
"Ciyu, you are so handsome!"
Ci Yu turned a deaf ear to all of this, and his back was made even more lonely and arrogant by the noisy shouts.
Tilun was very satisfied with the audience's response. He pressed his hands to signal everyone to calm down, "Okay, everyone, please be quiet. Now the competition begins! Candidates please draw lots!"
The first one to enter the arena was Tim, and then Feilin. Obviously these two people had the highest status in the family, and coincidentally, they had both fought against Gu Nansheng and had enmity.
The two of them are the most powerful contenders for the family patriarch. The succession competition not only depends on the final victory or defeat, but also considers the age and potential of the contestants.
Ti Lun personally recorded and wrote the order of the games on the schedule. The seed players of the direct family were intentionally separated.
The direct descendants drew lots first, and then it was the turn of the collateral descendants. The first one to appear was Xiao Qing, who was only ten years old, followed closely by Jones Xiang.
The pedigree of the descendants of the collateral line is indeed not as good as that of the direct descendants. Jones Xiang is already the best among the descendants of the collateral line, but if ranked among the descendants of the direct line, he will only be in the upper middle.
Jones held the number in his hand tightly, number B in the second group.
"Xiaoxiang, who is your opponent?" Jones Xiang turned around and saw that the person coming was her cousin Jones Nan, who is also a collateral descendant of the Jones family. Although he is not strong, he is a very good person and is usually very friendly to Jones Xiang.
take care of.
"It's Felin..." Jones pointed at the schedule, smiling a little bitterly.
Jones was stunned and frowned. Feilin was the number one genius among the direct descendants of the Biluo City branch of the Jones family. He was much better than Jones. However, this was not the point. The point was that Gu Nansheng was involved.
"Xiaoxiang, you are so unlucky. You don't have to take the competition so seriously. You also know that this competition is just a formality for us descendants. No matter whether the result is good or bad, it cannot change our destiny. And Feilin...
"
When Jones said this, he glanced at Feilin in the distance and made sure she couldn't hear him before whispering, "Everyone in the family knows now that Feilin was insulted by Gu Nansheng at that banquet. She was so arrogant. Why?
If she can bear that kind of anger, she has long hated that Gu Nansheng, and you and Gu Nansheng don't know each other..."
Jones blushed, "He and I are just ordinary friends."
Jones Nan said sternly: "My friend has suffered enough. Tell me about that time at the Chengnan Market. You behaved like Gu Nansheng in front of the elder Ti Lun... The family tradition is spreading, and I'm surprised that no one did anything to you.
.Sigh, I advise you to abstain. Feilin has been spoiled since he was a child, so he may not know how to attack."
Jones gritted his teeth and shook his head firmly, "No, I must fight in this game."
"Alas..." Jones South sighed, "I know what happened to Third Aunt, but even if you can win the film, so what? What can you change? Third Aunt knows better and doesn't want you to be seriously injured because of this.
, Third Aunt asked you not to hate the family when she left, just because she was afraid that you would not be able to think about it."
Jones Xiang fell silent. She stopped talking and began to close her eyes to gather energy.
The competition on the arena began, but Jones didn't even look at it, focusing on preparing for the next game.
Jonesnan sighed and shook his head secretly.
Gu Nansheng watched boredly as the two people on the field were playing Tai Chi. Originally, he wanted to see Ci Yu, but he didn't expect that this guy actually sat in the VIP seat and didn't take action at all. It's no wonder, Ci Yu is not Biluo
Those from the city branch will naturally not participate in the selection of their successors. And with his strength, there is really no need to participate in this level of selection.
"Amazing!"
"Wonderful!"
"Awesome!"
The audience screamed in surprise, but Gu Nansheng was about to fall asleep.
Finally, the game was over, but the next words from the host Tilun shocked Gu Nansheng.
What he said was, "In the next game, the two sides will be Phil Jones and Jones Xiang."
Feilin and Xiaoxiang, what a coincidence, but Jonesxiang should not be Feilin's opponent.
"The game ends when one party falls to the ground or admits defeat. No assassins are allowed during the game. If I determine that the winner has been decided, I will take action to prevent the game from continuing. Now let's invite the genius girl of the Jones family, the ninth-level agility warrior Felin Jones.
Come on!" As Ti Lun announced the rules of the game, Feilin slowly walked onto the arena. Compared to a month ago, she had changed a lot. She looked more calm, and her eyes contained murderous intent. These were all given by Gu Nansheng.
Catching this trace of murderous intent, Gu Nansheng had a bad premonition. He suddenly thought that Jones Xiang was so close to him, and Feilin would definitely transfer his hatred to Jones Xiang.
Some people in the crowd exclaimed, "You've already reached Level 9 at the age of twenty, what a genius!".
