Chapter 1570 Specifications have been improved again
In the City of Sin, the city lord's palace is heavily guarded.
City Lord Xie Wushang was taking a nap in the afternoon. Suddenly the doorman hurriedly came to report: "Sir City Lord, there is an envoy from the Chief Guard of Dongyan Island coming to see you."
Who has the highest status in Dongyan Island?
They are not the three major forces, but the Watchers. The Watchers represent the will of the entire Huichun Island, control the power of life and death on Dongyan Island, and maintain the basic order of Dongyan Island.
Of course, for the watchers, the order they need to maintain is just that no one escapes. They don't care at all about how dark, terrifying, and bloodthirsty Dongyan Island usually is.
In fact, they like to hear and see it.
The meaning of the existence of Dongyan Island lies in this.
As for the guardian, the most powerful person is the chief guardian.
The Chief Guard is the center of all power on Dongyan Island. He has countless powerful men under his command, and he controls all the power of life and death on Dongyan Island.
If the Chief Shou wants someone to die, it's just a matter of words.
Even a person of the level of the Lord of the City of Sin can only struggle to the death, and he will never escape the fate of being killed.
Therefore, I heard that it was the envoy sent by the Chief Guard, how could Xie Wushang dare to slack off?
Huo Ran stood up, put on his clothes, straightened his clothes, and walked out quickly.
"Your envoy has arrived, but Xie is a little far away to welcome you. Please forgive me, forgive me." Xie Wushang looked very polite in front of the envoy who was guarding the Lord.
The messenger's face was expressionless, showing no emotion or anger.
His eyebrows jumped slightly: "Xie City Lord, the Chief Guard has received the order from Huichun Island. The reception level of Dongyan Island this time is the highest in history. The Chief Guard attaches great importance to the tasks assigned to you. You may
Speed up the speed. You must not delay the important matters of the Chief Shou. If not, you know the consequences..."
The messenger's tone clearly sounded like a warning.
Instead of being angry, Xie Wushang lowered his eyebrows and assured me: "Please rest assured, Lord Chief, Xie used the highest standards and used the greatest resources this time. He will definitely prepare everything according to the instructions of Lord Chief.
There will be absolutely no mistakes."
From what he saw, Xie Wushang was very wary of the Chief Shou, and did not dare to slack off in the slightest while talking. Even if he was facing only an envoy from the Chief Shou, he had to be cautious.
"That's good. Time is tight. The nobles we are receiving this time are not only the princes and nobles of the Huichun Island Region, but also the children of the top wealthy nobles from the ten major divine kingdoms. You can take care of yourself. Well done, Mr. Chief Shou.
If you are happy, you may be given your freedom. If you don't do it well, the Chief Shou will be in trouble. If the Chief Shou is unlucky, you know your fate."
Xie Wu was heartbroken, knowing that this time was indeed different. Even the Chief Shou was just taking orders from others.
The chief shou is just a subordinate of the senior officials of the Huichun Island Region. If this matter is not handled well, the senior officials of the Huichun Island Region can also make the chief shou unlucky.
Once the Chief Guard is unlucky, Xie Wushang will definitely die.
Thinking of this, Xie Wushang expressed his stance again: "Xie will definitely go all out."
The messenger waved his hand: "What the Chief Protector wants to see is the results, not your rhetoric. I see that your progress in the City of Sin is extremely slow, and the Chief Protector is already a little unhappy. He doubts whether you are slacking off.
mood?"
"Don't dare, don't dare, Xie will definitely issue the highest order of the city lord's palace. I will never slack off."
"Okay, I've brought you the words. You can take care of yourself." The messenger didn't say any more nonsense to Xie Wushang, raised his chin indifferently, and turned to leave.
It was obvious that the envoy was not very respectful to Xie Wushang because he was the chief's confidant.
Although Xie Wushang was a little dissatisfied with the envoy's attitude, he really didn't dare to complain. He knew that the chief guard really paid great attention to it this time.
It seems that I have to speed up the progress and increase my efforts.
Xie Wushang thought for a moment, then left to summon all his close aides and gave the order: "I have given the order from the Lord of the City. The standards for this trial will be doubled again. Raise it to the highest level in history. All rewards and titles will be raised to the highest level."
.”
Xie Wushang's attitude surprised the staff of the City Lord's Mansion. This selection competition itself was relatively sudden, and the standards were already very high?
However, the city lord obviously thought that the standard was not high enough, so he even increased his efforts to raise the standard again.
"Lord City Lord, are you a little too eager? Selecting talents is of course important. However, if the standards are improved, it will be a bit too high. After all, the talent structure of the City Lord's Mansion is layer by layer, and everyone is the City Lord.
Your Excellency works hard. The salary and treatment they receive do not exceed this selection level. If it is doubled or raised again, there is no guarantee that everyone will complain."
"Yes, the selection is to select new people. If the new people are given such good treatment and specifications, wouldn't it make the Lord City Lord's old subordinates feel chilled?"
"The city lord is thirsty for talents, and we understand it very well. However, doing this may cause criticism and make the old subordinates feel unfair."
These staff members came up with their ideas sincerely. What they said was quite reasonable. After all, the selection was only for selecting new people. The standards were too high and would be harmful to the elderly.
Xie Wushang also knew that what everyone said was good.
Sighed: "Everyone, this matter is no longer a matter at the level of Sin City. The envoy of the Chief Guard has just come to deliver a message. There is also the meaning of beating in the words. He thinks that we, Sin City, are involved in this matter.
In fact, the intensity is not strong enough, and the progress is not fast enough. It is said that the Chief Marshal is already unhappy."
"Lord Chief Marshal?"
"Is it possible that this time we are selecting talents for the Chief Protector?"
Everyone was speechless when they heard that this incident was related to the Chief Guard. If it had just happened in the City of Sin, they could still have given some advice.
However, they have no right to speak when it concerns the Chief Shou, and they dare not speak arbitrarily.
No one can afford to bear the crime of interfering with the decision of the Chief Marshal? Isn't this just bringing trouble to oneself?
Xie Wushang pondered: "I don't know the specific thoughts of the Chief Protector. However, since it is a task assigned by the Chief Protector, we must take it seriously. Otherwise, if the Chief Protector feels that we are slacking off, this City Lord will
There will be trouble, and each of you will also be in trouble. Therefore, no matter what everyone thinks about this matter now, it must be carried out with all your strength. There must be no half-hearted perfunctory. According to the order of this city lord, everyone must complete this matter wholeheartedly.
Matter. At present, selecting talents is the top priority of my City of Sin. Anyone who has opinions or ideas can come back to the city lord after this matter is over. The city lord will definitely give you an answer at that time!"
The city lord has spoken up to this point, so it is naturally impossible for everyone to object without knowledge.
Besides, if we object now, we are not opposing the Lord of the City, but the Lord Chief Protector.
"Don't worry, City Lord, I'll do it right away. I urge everyone to wait, concentrate on doing this, and do it well."
These staff saw the determination of the city lord and expressed their opinions one after another.
…
The announcement of the selection appeared again in Sin City, once again causing a sensation.
"Isn't it? There's a new announcement? The standards of this selection have been raised again?"
"How much of a shortage of talent does our City of Sin have? The standards of this selection are simply unprecedented!"
"Isn't that right? The shortlisted candidates will be selected and given a golden residence talisman, with permanent residence rights in the City of Sin. An annual salary of two million days of spiritual stones? They will also enjoy a special enshrinement title from the City Lord's Mansion?"
"Tsk, tsk, this selection is definitely a treatment I have never experienced before."
"It is estimated that this selection is also very demanding. Those who can be shortlisted are so happy. This is simply gaining fame and fortune, and reaching the sky in one step."
"With such a good treatment, it is estimated that the selection will be very difficult. The screening conditions are also very strict."
"Looking at the registration requirements, it doesn't seem to be particularly harsh! There are age restrictions, cultivation level restrictions, and there are many restrictions in all aspects."
"Yes, this selection is probably for the future talent pool. No one will be accepted if their cultivation level exceeds the heaven level. Only half a step to the heaven level is allowed at most. And the age cannot be more than one hundred years old."
"Tsk, tsk, one hundred years old, for our generation of martial arts monks, it is just an adult. How many of us at this age can reach the level of heaven?"
"So, those who are selected must be geniuses, right?"
"Haha, the city lord's palace is very hungry for talents, but it's a pity that I am over a hundred years old. Otherwise, I will definitely be able to rise to great heights this time and reach the sky in one step."
Everyone looked at this announcement and sighed with emotion. On the one hand, they were shocked by the super treatment of this selection. On the other hand, they felt sorry that they did not meet the conditions for participation.
It cannot be more than a hundred years old, it cannot be higher than the heavenly level, and it cannot be lower than the imperial level.
These demanding requirements are definitely very difficult for contestants to meet. But those who can meet them can basically be regarded as geniuses.
After all, at the age of 100, one cannot be said to be old or young.
A true genius, at this age, should also be beginning to rise.
Rather than being a top genius, at this age, bottlenecks have almost appeared, and how much potential there is can basically be seen at this age.
In the inn, Jiang Chen also heard the commotion everywhere, discussing the further improvement of the selection criteria.
Jiang Chen could feel that with the announcement, the atmosphere in the City of Sin became obviously much more fanatical.
Jiang Chen actually doesn't like this kind of fanatical atmosphere. He is a calm-minded person, and when the atmosphere is fanatical, it is often the more dangerous time.
Although Jiang Chen doesn't think this selection is very dangerous, there must be some reason why the City Lord's Mansion attaches so much importance to this selection.
"Is the City Lord's Mansion in this City of Sin really in such short supply of talent? Does it need to be so massive and crazy?"
Jiang Chen was a little confused.
However, Jiang Chen doesn't particularly care about these speculations. Since he has decided to participate in the selection, he will go all out.
There is no point in making some unnecessary guesses.
