It is easy to speculate on things within one year, but it can also involve three or five years, which made Song Zhongkai only smile.
In this era of rapid change, Xu Zhi casually mentioned a few names, and it was impossible to count them, not to mention that they were all close relatives.
If you don’t plan for the best-case scenario, the worst-case scenario may not come.
Xu Zhi's interruption only made him feel a little less melancholy and resentful.
After all, optimism is an attitude.
As Situ Xuankong said, at least have hope.
Not to mention the possible second and third gambling battles in the future, at least the current battle needs to be overcome first.
"He just became the leader of the Tumo Alliance, and he was sold out in the blink of an eye."
Leaving aside Song Zhongkai's mentality for the moment, it was Li Duohuang who made Xu Zhi find it quite funny.
The Tumo Alliance will definitely be taken over by Dongyue next year, and this woman will most likely be the leader this year.
After testing Gu Yuxi's strength, Xu Zhi was extremely confident about her performance in the Four Nations Exchange Competition.
Perhaps because of his experience in Dragon Ruins, Gu Yuxi's fighting ability came from behind. Xu Zhi felt that Gu Yuxi's strength was slightly ahead of Yan Jinbai's.
In essence, Gu Yuxi and others are equivalent to a weakened version of Li Duohuang.
Everyone is of the same kind and has gained too many benefits from the ruins.
The Flame Pillar is more suitable for Nan'ao's practice system, but Gu Yuxi and others benefited more from taking the Psychedelic Tower and Star Axis than Li Duohuang.
Their strength is slightly weaker than that of Li Duohuang when he was so powerful, but if both of them are at the same age, it would be difficult to compare each other.
Just thinking about Li Duohuang's character made Xu Zhi feel resentful.
It involves using dirty tricks, saping, and escaping at the first opportunity. The opponent's ability to survive in the wild is definitely beyond that of the Yan family.
Without the help of the elemental world, Xu Zhi would have considered himself inferior to Li Duohuang.
There are internal worries and external troubles.
It was not until he reached a high position that Xu Zhi realized how difficult it was for this huge country to operate.
He looked at the cold sunshine outside. As the year drew closer and closer, the rapids inside and outside Dongyue became more and more violent.
On the grounds of investigating the incident in the former auxiliary country, the current auxiliary country Lu Sheng'an quickly launched a plan to transfer and re-appoint officials.
The General Office of the Inspection Department has also begun to further enhance its authority.
This is undoubtedly a knife hanging over many institutions.
Everyone wanted to object, but the Inspection Department took advantage of the situation too harshly this time, and even they couldn't say much.
If the former auxiliary king's actions can be verified, who knows how many other important people will be involved.
The power of the Inspection Department needs to be limited, otherwise it will investigate whoever it wants and it will become an unscrupulous power agency.
However, the hard teaching endangers Dongyue's heels and cannot be done without pulling it out. At this point, we need to rely on the Inspection Department.
This will most likely lead to the pain of scraping the bones to cure the poison.
It is far worse than the big inspection that Zhao Mu triggered three years ago.
The Inspection Department lost a strong Zhao Mu, and many people did not expect to welcome an even stronger Xu Zhi.
Xu Zhi is usually harmless to humans and animals, but once he decides to bite someone, he will be more vicious than Zhao Mu.
With the constant turmoil, some people are constantly repositioning Xu Zhi.
Living deep in the headquarters of the Inspection Department, he is even somewhat demonized by the outside world.
But there was a lot of joy inside the Inspection Department.
The status of the Inspection Department Headquarters has been improved, which means that the power of their branch offices has also increased.
If Xu Zhi opens his mouth, the authority of the inspection departments in various places can reach the local provincial director.
Xu Zhi also welcomed a familiar colleague from the inspection department at this time.
"Headquarters."
"You're welcome, Luo Shangfu."
Locke Jiahui, the dean of Yunling Academy, is also the superior of the Inspection Department of Southern Yunnan Province.
As one of the three superiors of the Inspection Department, Locke has great authority and strength.
A few years ago, Locke was ranked twelfth in the grandmaster rankings. As Wang Dong disappeared and Yan Xuankong became the grand master, his ranking automatically rose two places, and now he is ranked tenth.
The Southern Yunnan Province is adjacent to the Tume Alliance. There are many turmoils in the province and the forces are complicated.
No different from Kyoto, the Inspection Department in this province has three positions: Shangfu, Zhongfu and Shaofu.
If there is nothing important, Locke will stay in southern Yunnan province all year round.
At this time, the situation in Kyoto was turbulent, and there were many things involving the Kusanagi. It was normal for him to come to Kyoto to understand the situation.
But Xu Zhi did not expect that Locke Ka Fai's visit to him was not related to the investigation of the hard education, but something else.
"If this sword of the General Palace has no place to go, I hope you will give more consideration to your subordinates."
What he asked for was the Zhuyun Sword, the Grand Master's weapon sent by Arlia.
"I remember that you were good at using Poison Palm and Five Poison Fist, why did you suddenly ask for a long sword?" Xu Zhi asked curiously.
"That's because I don't have a good sword, so I can only use my fists and feet." Locke said depressedly: "I have a white bone sword that can be used in the ruins, and I also made a poisonous horn sword, but they are not very durable."
Grandmaster weapons have various functions and can even be indestructible after being infused with inner energy.
But under normal circumstances, if there is no internal energy support and no protection, it is not surprising that a steel sword can cut off a master's weapon.
It involves loss and durability.
The weapons in Li Duohuang's hands are not very durable and are often lost.
Xu Zhi has also changed a lot of weapons over the years, many of which are broken, damaged, and broken.
I always change to a new weapon every two years, but now I have stabilized myself with the Qingchuan family's Qingliu heavy water stick.
Grandmaster weapons were expensive, and Xu Zhi did not dare to squander them, and tried his best to prevent himself from using violence.
"A few years ago, we produced a poisonous horn in China, but unfortunately I didn't buy it. It's not easy for us to go abroad to buy some materials."
Locke's expression was filled with resentment.
Poison horns are not rare in South Australia, but they are rare in Dongyue.
Xu Zhi felt that the poisonous horn that Locke mentioned was probably the one they found at that time. Gu Changying finally exchanged the poisonous horn for two cicada-wing daggers from the Yan family.
It is difficult for masters to go abroad. Only special official duties and invitations can go to the destination country.
Having been stationed in southern Yunnan all year round, Locke had a lot of hatred with the people of Nan'ao, and the road to Nan'ao was basically blocked.
If he wants to get some suitable master weapon materials, the price he has to pay will not be small.
"I heard the introduction from Lin Shangfu. He said that you have a Grandmaster Poison Sword here, and it is Yin Yi from Xiliu Kingdom. This made me very happy."
As a master-level veteran and good at poison skills, Locke is indeed qualified to use the Zhenyi Sword.
The Grand Master's weapons are fused with metal, which is far stronger than the texture of the Grand Master's weapons.
A great master's weapon can accompany a cultivator almost throughout his life.
"The confrontation between Nan'ao and Southern Yunnan is becoming more and more serious, and my subordinates also want to have a personal weapon to defend themselves, so that they can use more force."
"Tuozhong Mansion said that you are cultivating the Glazed Golden Body. If you intend to sell the Yongyi Sword, Jiahui is willing to raise the corresponding training materials for you." Locke Jiahui stared at Xu Zhidao.
He spoke more directly. After a few polite words, he clearly stated his intention, which made Xu Zhi nod his head repeatedly.
If Locke Ka Fai is willing to raise glazed golden body cultivation materials, he will not lose money.
Xu Zhi had no use for this sword, so he counted on Ailiya to redeem it with suitable supplies.
But as soon as the investigation of Wang Dong came out, Fan Tiexin's information related to Aliya again.
If Aliya did it intentionally, she might not come to Dongyue again to redeem the sword.
In Dongyue, there are masters who can use the Shaoyun Sword, but there are not many, just a few.
If Locke is good at using swords, he is undoubtedly the best master to use this long sword and the best master to get the right price.
"Lin Shangfu should have introduced you to the origin of this long sword, two years ago."
Xu Zhi raised two fingers, which made Locke look happy.
As long as Ailiya does not redeem the sword, Xu Zhi will trade it with him two years later.
