The middle-aged man was about fifty years old, with a big belly and a weak complexion. He must have been drinking too much.
The young man had a majestic appearance and walked with a wind in his step.
Zhao Zishan laughed along with him and bowed down again and again to say goodbye: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu, I'll be waiting for you two to come."
When he raised his head and turned back to the restaurant to pack his things, he met Xia Qingchen head-on.
Their eyes met, and there was a trace of unnaturalness in Zhao Zishan's eyes.
After all, he has a noble image at home.
At this moment, he is very close to flattery, and his image is completely gone.
But he quickly calmed down and returned to his usual aloof demeanor. He glanced at Xia Qingchen and the two people around him, frowned and said, "How can you afford such an expensive place like Bishui Restaurant?"
Bishui Restaurant is one of the most luxurious restaurants in the imperial capital, more expensive than Immortal Residence in Yun Gucheng.
One meal costs at least 60,000 silver.
He was quite distressed, so he invited Mr. Liu and his son to have a drink here.
Xia Qingchen actually came too?
He felt more and more that Xia Qingchen was not a good person.
The Yunluo Holy Leaf of unknown origin and the property of unknown origin can only be stolen?
"How are you talking? Why can't we afford it?" Before Xia Qingchen said anything, Shen Jinghong looked unhappy.
What a joke, Xia Qingchen got three money card rewards from Wuge in a row, and could buy the entire Bishui Restaurant.
Why can’t I afford it?
Even if a dog looks down on people, there must be limits, right?
Zhao Zishan chuckled and shook his head: "What kind of status and what kind of people do you associate with? My cousin is from the countryside. I believe your status is not high, right? It's really embarrassing to gather in a place like this."
hiss!
Shen Jinghong bared his teeth, wanting to ridicule this person.
If Xia Qingchen was a country boy, he wouldn't even be qualified to be a beggar.
Xia Qingchen is a distinguished guest of Prince Yunshu. This person is one ten thousandth better than Xia Qingchen in terms of the things he can do with his head and bow.
But when he said that he was Xia Qingchen's cousin, he immediately shut up.
I couldn't help but look at this person in surprise.
Prince Yunshu pressed down his bamboo hat and said calmly: "My friend, it is better to be careful with your words and actions in everything. You must know that trouble comes from your mouth."
A prince is a prince.
Even if the face is hidden, one sentence can give people an invisible sense of oppression.
Zhao Zishan glanced at him and vaguely felt that this person might have a high status, so he became cautious.
"Forget it, cousin, just take care of yourself." After saying that, he left in confusion.
He couldn't understand what kind of distinguished person Xia Qingchen would meet when he first came to the imperial capital?
Prince Yun Shu said calmly: "Mr. Xia, who is your cousin? From his tone, he sounds like he is very young and promising."
Xia Qingchen smiled: "I guess he is the assistant of Dr. Liu of some kind of hospital."
Prince Yunshu thought for a while and said to himself: "There is such a thing as an assistant in Taiyuan Hospital? I have never heard of it before."
Prince Yun Shu has actually never heard of Zhao Zishan’s proud identity!
"This group of imperial doctors is getting more and more outrageous. They are greedy for pleasure, but they find a few unscrupulous assistants to handle their affairs! This trend cannot last long!" Prince Yun Shu said calmly.
He is determined to straighten out the hospital.
If Zhao Zishan knew that his unintentional move had cost him his proud job, I wonder how he would feel.
The three of them separated.
Xia Qingchen returned to Zhao Mansion, and on the way, he passed by a vast hall called Shenxiu Hall.
The lights in the hall were bright, but there were no people around.
"Shenxiu Hall? It seems to be the organization that arranges the Shenxiu List, right?" Xia Qingchen stopped.
The Shenxiu List records the young men aged 16 to 18 in the Shenxiu Principality.
Arrange everyone's names according to their strength.
Any teenager who meets the age limit is eligible to enter the Shenxiu Hall for free and undergo a strength test.
Xia Qingchen finished cultivating the Hunyuan Immortal Body and was looking for a place to test his strength.
Therefore, he made an impromptu decision and entered the Shenxiu Palace.
Perhaps because it was late at night, most of the people in the palace had left, and the rest were cleaning.
Seeing Xia Qingchen come in, a sweeper frowned and said, "Shenxiu Hall is only open during the day, come back tomorrow."
Is that so?
A flash of disappointment flashed in Xia Qingchen's eyes.
But just as he was about to leave, a slightly lazy voice came from the vast Shenxiu Hall.
"It doesn't matter, the arena is not closed yet, let him try."
The faces of the people sweeping the floor suddenly changed and they immediately became respectful.
One of the men in black put down his broom and said politely: "Sir, please come to the ring."
Xia Qingchen jumped up as instructed.
The officer in black asked: "Is the young master challenging with his true identity, or anonymously?"
"Anonymous." Xia Qingchen said without thinking.
"On the Shenxiu List, there are a total of 200 war shadows of talented young people. How many of them do you want to challenge?"
Xia Qingchen thought for a while: "Let's challenge the fourth place first."
The Shenxiu Ranking is the ranking of the entire principality.
Being able to rank fourth in the imperial capital, his strength should be quite high, so it should be enough for training, right?
"Fourth?" The man in black was stunned for a moment and looked at Xia Qingchen in surprise.
After a pause, he said: "You can only challenge once a day, sir, are you sure?"
If you fail the challenge, you will miss today's opportunity.
"Just him." Xia Qingchen said.
The man in black shook his head secretly, another person who didn't know the heights of the world.
He has seen many people who are trying for the first time, and they all pretend to be superior and challenge those at the top.
But they all left in disgrace and failure.
"Okay, sir, be careful. Although it is an illusory shadow, you still have to avoid hurting yourself." The man in black pressed the mechanism on the ring.
Suddenly, across from Xia Qingchen, several lights and shadows converged into a young figure.
What made Xia Qingchen slightly surprised was that this figure was not the young man among the guests, big and small, whom Zhao Zishan nodded and bowed to send away.
That person is actually the fourth person on the list of gods?
However, this is not important.
"start!"
The young phantom immediately attacked Xia Qingchen.
His cultivation level is about the seventh level of Zhongchen level, and his martial arts are two high-level yellow-grade martial arts.
Xia Qingchen stood on the spot, with air flowing all over his body.
"Hunyuan Immortal Body!"
The young man attacked quickly, hitting each move on the rotating airflow outside his body, but was bounced away.
A cup of tea passed by.
Despite the young man's varied attacks, he failed to penetrate even an inch of the air flow.
Xia Qingchen frowned slightly: "The ranking is low. The fourth place on the Shenxiu List is nothing more than that."
He wanted to understand the limits of the Hunyuan Immortal Body through competition.
But, obviously, this fourth place is far from meeting Xia Qingchen's requirements.
"Forget it, let's talk about it later when we have a chance." Seeing that the phantom could not be attacked for a long time, Xia Qingchen lost patience.
The indestructible body of Hunyuan is just collected.
But when he stopped, the phantom didn't stop.
The men in black were shocked when they saw this and shouted: "Be careful, get out of the ring quickly!"
Xia Qingchen didn't even look at the attacking phantom, and casually launched the Nine Dragons in the Sky move behind him.
There was just an explosion, and the phantom was immediately blown to pieces.
The extra eight compressed internal energy has nothing to explode, it can only explode the air there.
