The whole place was silent, and everyone looked at the scene that happened on the ring in disbelief.
It was all going well just now, evenly matched, but why did the winner suddenly appear?
Moreover, this seems to be different from what Zhang Xue said!
"Brother Zhang, this... this?"
"Ahem!" Zhang Xue said with embarrassment: "I haven't finished what I said just now. Now that you have said it, it took Gu An a while to crush the wolf demon's skull!
Maybe like Xia Jun, he also hides his strength!
Now it seems that it is indeed the case!”
Zhang Xue quickly thought of his words, and at the same time adjusted his state, his face slowly changed to the previous expression of having everything under control.
On the high platform, Chen Yan gently waved his folding fan: "Tsk, tsk, Gu An's method is a bit cruel."
"Gu An!"
Xia Ji gave a loud shout, stood up directly, and was about to jump off the high platform to find trouble for Gu An.
"Master Xia!"
Yuan Shan immediately stood in front of Xia Ji.
"Yuan Shan, get out of my way!"
"Master Xia, you need to know that what is being held now is a joint assessment between the Zhenxie Department and the Wu Mansion!"
Xia Ji was woken up by Yuan Shan's roar, and glanced at Yang Ling from the corner of his eye unnaturally, two places away.
There seemed to be nothing unusual, but in fact Yang Ling was already very dissatisfied with him and Zhang Tianshuo reaching an agreement in advance.
Xia Ji's chest rose and fell violently several times, and he shouted downwards: "I admit defeat for Jun'er!"
Dongfang Runhong smiled slightly and took two steps forward: "Gu Ansheng."
"Ding, the mission is completed, and the reward energy value is 5 points."
The sound of mission accomplished sounded in my mind.
Gu An stood up.
Originally, Gu An had no intention of killing Xia Jun. With his current ability, he was unable to fight against the entire Xia family.
If you are injured, you can still treat it with the Xia family's methods, but it may take a long time.
This is just a dispute. Xia Jun is just inferior to others, and the Xia family has no reason to continue to trouble Gu An.
Even if the Xia family refuses to give up, Gu An can still take advantage of the situation of the county government or even the Suppressing Evil Division.
If Xia Jun was beaten to death directly, Xia Ji would definitely jump down no matter who stopped him.
Then it becomes endless.
Soon someone came on stage and carried away Xia Jun, who was unconscious.
Yang Ling stood up from his position with an expressionless face: "I announce that this assessment is officially over, and the next step is the selection time for the Suppression of Evil Division and the Wu Mansion."
"Gu An, have you decided whether to join our Evil Suppression Department or our Martial Palace?"
Seeing Yang Ling asking a question, Gu An was about to answer.
Zhang Tianshuo smiled and said: "Gu An, the master of this palace has been very optimistic about you since your first assessment. I also asked Yuan Shan to give you a message before. Now I ask you again, are you willing to join my martial arts palace?
?”
In public, directly telling Yuan Shan to give me a message, is this considered a conspiracy? Sowing discord?
Drive a wedge between Yuan Shan and Yang Ling, or directly drive a wedge between the county government and the Zhenxie Division.
Gu An cupped his hands and said: "Thank you Palace Master Zhang for your kindness, but I think the Suppression of Evil Division is more suitable for me."
Zhang Tianshuo nodded: "Since you have made a decision, it is not easy for me to force you."
With that said, Zhang Tianshuo turned to Xia Ji: "Master Xia, I should have asked Xia Jun personally, but I also saw the situation just now and couldn't make a choice.
As Xia Jun's father, you should know what he means.
I wonder if Xia Jun would like to join my martial arts mansion?"
Xia Ji's expression softened slightly: "Thank you, Palace Master, Jun'er has told me before that he has been fascinated by Wu Palace for a long time, so he is naturally willing to enter Wu Palace."
Yang Ling had expected this and didn't care about the interaction between the two of them.
The third place, Yan Hong, also chose to join the Zhenxie Division, while He Wei chose the Wu Mansion.
Others later made their choices much faster. Those who experienced pleasure in the assessment joined the Suppression of Evil Division.
Some who passed the examination but still had lingering fears chose the gentler Wufu.
Chen Muzhi, who had been following Gu An before, also chose the Zhenxie Division.
In the first round against Gu An, Zhao Xian, who immediately admitted defeat, also successfully entered the top 50 from the loser group and chose the Zhenxie Division.
Except for the fifty people from Zhenxie Division and Wu Mansion.
Some of the thirty-two people eliminated accepted invitations from families or sects like Chen Yan and entered their families or sects to become guards or disciples.
Some have chosen to give up and probably want to join the casual cultivator alliance in the future.
After everyone has made their selections.
Yang Ling announced on the spot: "The selection is over, and we will gather here at twilight tomorrow."
Gu An bowed to Yang Ling, others and Dongfang Runhong on the high platform, and then walked down the ring.
After the assessment was over, everyone at the scene quickly dispersed.
…
Within the county government office.
As soon as Gu An returned to the county government office, the official police officers were shocked and a little more afraid of Gu An.
Qin Quan, the backup agent, was still more curious than afraid, and wanted to pester Gu An, but was driven away by Yuan Shan who returned again.
inside the house.
Yuan Shan tapped the armrest of the seat: "It's good to get first place, but in fact, the punch behind you is not necessary."
"Sir, I think that the subsequent punch was necessary."
"Oh? How do you say this?"
"The first item before, when I first entered the Resentment Village, five people under Tao Yu's orders came to challenge me. In order to get rid of them once and for all, I disabled their hands when I attacked.
The result was pretty good, no one bothered me anymore.
But Xia Jun is different. After Xia Jun saw my methods, he still dared to come forward and provoke me; if I don't be ruthless, it will be difficult to deal with it later."
Gu An said neither humble nor arrogantly.
At this moment, Yuan Shan also remembered the previous events, including the exchange between the two of them when they were greeting each other on the ring. He frowned and asked, "Xia Jun, why did I provoke you?"
"I don't know the details, but he said it was related to Tao Yu."
"Tao Yu?"
"Xia Jun did say that."
Yuan Shan lowered his eyebrows and thought for a while: "Xia Ji's eldest son, I heard that a few days ago, the martial arts competition in Xunyang County next door achieved good results.
No matter how you say that Xia Jun will enter the Wu Mansion, what benefits did Tao Yu give Xia Jun to persuade him?"
Xia Jun's eldest brother is in Xunyang County Wu Mansion... This news surprised Gu An.
Dongling County is located in a mountainous area, surrounded by three iron mines and two copper mines. It is the largest mining area in Youzhou.
Correspondingly, the strength of Dongling County is also stronger than that of Xunyang County next door, which is close to the river and has developed fisheries.
Although Xunyang County is not as good as Dongling County, the fact that he can achieve good results in a military mansion in a county shows that his talent is higher than Xia Jun's.
Gu An couldn't figure it out either.
After the room was silent for a while, Yuan Shan slowly exhaled a breath: "Don't tell anyone about this for now."
Gu An nodded and said, "I understand."
Since Xia Jun said this, it should be true.
Tao Yu would actually invite someone who would definitely enter the Wu Mansion to deal with him. I don't know what Yang Ling, who is the general banner of Ping'an County's Zhenxie Division, would think.
