There was a meaningful smile on Xiao Tian's face, but the meaning of his words was not concealed at all. As soon as he finished speaking, the elegant smile on Tantai Wan Ning's pretty face solidified in an instant.
"Mr. Xiao, what do you mean?" The light in the girl's beautiful eyes was slightly cold, and there was also a hint of anger between her eyebrows.
"Haha, don't be angry, Your Highness Princess. I have good intentions. After all, Your Highness, you should also know the difficulty of the next test. We really have no time to take care of this little brother..." Xiao Tian cupped his hand, still playful.
Smiling.
His words sounded tactful, but everyone present could tell that this talented young man from the Xiao family clearly disliked the young man brought by Tantai Wan Ning because he was weak and not qualified to join.
their team.
And such remarks, no matter how euphemistic and implicit they are, are humiliating to the person concerned if they are said in front of so many people.
Xiao Tian may not have thought of this, but he did it!
"Since Young Master Xiao's team has such strict requirements, then Wan Ning should stay away, lest her skills become inferior to others and drag down the geniuses in Young Master's team!"
Tantai Wan Ning sneered. This girl was actually very sharp-tongued. When she heard that this genius of the Xiao family had so despised and humiliated her brother Shen Chen, she immediately did not get angry, but retaliate in the same way without any mercy.
retort!
"This..." Xiao Tian's face froze slightly when he heard this. He also didn't expect that the apple of the eye of Beifeng Marquis would be so powerful, and his words were not forgiving at all.
The girl's sneer was undoubtedly very uncomfortable for Xiao Tian's ears. He was well-known in Luo Yuncheng, and since his cultivation, he has attracted unimaginable attention from ordinary people. The entire Xiao family is surrounding him, and even
No one from the older generation dared to say too harsh words to him. There were countless followers around him these days. I don’t know how many young men and girls with good cultivation he had rejected!
But now, Xiao Tian originally thought that he was extending an olive branch. Even though the respected princess in front of him wanted to give him some respect, he didn't expect that for the sake of an insignificant person, he ended up being rejected!
In Xiao Tian's eyes, Shen Chen beside Tantai Wan Ning is indeed an insignificant person. If the two of them hadn't been quite close, Xiao Tian would have regarded this passerby, who had just reached the sixth level of Blood Realm, as the princess.
His Highness's entourage, and now that Tantai Wan Ning angrily rejected her for such a person who was clearly not qualified to participate in the selection, Xiao Tianzhen was really unhappy, and some anger was surging in her heart.
However, no matter how conceited he was, he certainly did not dare to be too presumptuous towards Tantai Wan Ning, the beloved daughter of Beifeng Marquis. After pondering for a few breaths, he said with a smile: "Haha, since I have other ideas, then I will
Don’t force it anymore!”
After the words fell, Xiao Tian waved his sleeves and strode away in a slightly embarrassed manner. The moment he turned around, he glanced at Shen Chen slightly, his eyes also full of disdain.
Xiao Tian originally thought that with Tantai Wan Ning's identity, the young man who could follow the girl would at least be an outstanding genius in the Beifeng Marquis territory.
He really couldn't believe that such a thing could be so close to Tantai Wan Ning. It was so unreasonable. If the girl hadn't been so young, he would have mistakenly thought that boy was the princess's boyfriend. pet...
At the same time that Xiao Tian left, Wei Hao, the third son of the Lord of the Acropolis, also happened to come over.
Wei Hao's purpose in coming to Tantai Wanning seemed to be the same as Xiao Tian's, he wanted to invite this noble girl with amazing talent to join his camp.
However, after seeing that the genius of the Xiao family was in disgrace, Wei Hao hesitated again and again, and finally swallowed the invitation with regret, and came over to talk to Tantai Wan Ning about some irrelevant matters. After speaking, he immediately walked away in a sullen manner.
Obviously, due to the existence of Shen Chen as a "burden", Wei Hao finally had to give up the idea of inviting Tantai Wan Ning to join.
The reason is very simple, and it is also out of safety considerations. After all, he and the hundreds of geniuses present know very well that this time the selection of Luo Yunzong is really difficult, and the competition is extremely cruel.
Originally, Luo Yunzong had two places to select talents in Yunzhou, but due to the war, Yongning City, thousands of miles away, has been temporarily cancelled. On the vast land of Yunzhou, tens of thousands of young talents selected by various forces and families will be They gathered in Yecheng and fought hard for the few hundred spots.
And those who are currently invited to Yecheng City Lord's Mansion are only some geniuses from around Yecheng, and they are just the tip of the iceberg among the participants!
Under such a background, even though they are famous young heroes within a thousand miles, they have to be taken seriously. Even if he wants to make friends with Tantai Wan Ning, he does not dare to take the risk of bringing an extra burden...
In fact, there were many outstanding people present who had the same idea as Xiao Tian and Wei Hao. Later, many well-known figures in the Beifenghou territory came over one after another and wanted to invite Tantai Wan Ning to join the team, but After knowing the girl's rigid requirements, many outstanding people were intimidated.
At the end, a rough-looking young man wearing animal skins carrying a mace walked up to Shen Chen and warned him mercilessly: "Friend, I know those guys' actions made you embarrassed. It's very shameful, but with your cultivation at the sixth level of the Blood Fusion Realm, you really don't have any chance. Even competing for a spot as an outer disciple is hopeless. If you know what's going on, you'd better quit voluntarily. , so as not to drag down this little princess sister who is like a fairy!"
"Hmph! I want you to take care of me and get out of my way!" Tantai Wan Ning became furious and angrily wanted to use her amethyst sword to chase people away.
"Hehehehe... little princess sister, don't be angry. Big brother, I also have good intentions and don't want to see your friend in danger in a few days!"
The rugged young man smiled innocently and hurriedly got out of the way. His ferocious face looked particularly funny at the moment. While dodging away, he did not forget to murmur: "Brother, my name is Man Qi. I am the second son of the leader of the Golden Wolf tribe. I am the little princess sister." You must remember your eldest brother's name. When you arrive in the "Bahuang Mountains", if you have any difficulties, remember to ask your brother for help. My requirements are not high. Go back and intercede with your father, and ask your father to help us. The Golden Wolf Tribe will have a way to survive, as long as the stipend is reduced by two years..."
"Get out!" Before the crude boy could finish his words, the girl was already furious and yelled angrily. Half of the amethyst sword in Juan's sleeve had already flown out.
Relatively speaking, he didn't have much resentment towards the rough young man who looked like a savage just now. Shen Chen noticed just now that the guy spoke harshly and unobtrusively, but his eyes were very clear, and it seemed that he was really just Good-intentioned persuasion is not unnecessary.
"Brother Chen Chen, it's Wan Ning's fault. If I had known this, I shouldn't have asked you to accompany me to this banquet..." The girl took back her amethyst sword and immediately turned her head to look at Shen Chen, with a bit of grievance on her pretty face. and self-blame.
"Haha, it's okay!" Shen Chen shook his head with a wry smile. Before following Xiao Nizi here, he had already been mentally prepared for such a situation. Anyone who could be invited by the Qin family was not a genius near Yecheng. Naturally, they are all arrogant and arrogant masters, so it is normal for them to look down on his "weak" foil.
However, from the disdainful looks of those guys, Shen Chen also felt something strange. This time, the selection may not be as simple as imagined.
Thinking in his mind, Shen Chen's eyes narrowed, and he looked at the girl seriously and said: "Nizi, is the Luo Yunzong selection really so severe this time?"
"Yes." Tantai Wanning nodded lightly and said with a solemn gaze: "In recent years, the situation in the human race gathering place in Tianlong Continent has become increasingly turbulent. Princes from all sides are fighting endlessly, and even many ancient families, ancient tribes, and holy places have become more and more turbulent. , Pure Land, are secretly involved. Some small and medium-sized forces located in war-torn areas spend their days in fear and anxiety, eager to find a towering tree to rely on. This time Luo Yunzong accepts disciples, it has been seen by many people It has become an excellent way to establish a relationship with the behemoth Luo Yunzong. Not only the outstanding people of Yunzhou have gathered together, but also some tribes, families, and sects near Yunzhou have secretly joined in. The competition is cruel and unprecedented!"
"No wonder so many people have come to Yecheng in the past two days..." Shen Chen sighed.
"Haha, what's this? According to Shi Lao's estimation, the number of people entering the city now is less than one-tenth of those participating in the selection. In the next three days, there will only be more people coming!" Tantai Wanning said. Small mouth, smiled.
"Well, in the land of Yunzhou, the attraction of Luo Yunzong is unparalleled!" Shen Chen sighed with emotion.
In troubled times, everyone is in danger. If you want to survive, in addition to being strong enough, you must also have a background that is powerful enough to intimidate all parties. This applies not only to hundreds of millions of monks, but also to countless small and medium-sized forces.
In fact, not only the small and medium-sized forces need to seek support, but also the princes of one party. In this regard, Xiao Nizi's father, the Beifeng Hou, did an excellent job...
Shen Chen secretly thought, Tantai Wan Ning thought he was worried about not being able to find a partner, and immediately comforted him with a smile: "Brother Shen Chen doesn't need to worry about allies, although many forces in this territory are doing their own thing. , are not bound by our Beifeng Hou Mansion, but there are also many direct forces under the father's account. The number of young people of this generation who are qualified to participate in the selection is no less than dozens. They will be with us when the time comes. Don’t worry, we have no shortage of helpers!”
"Haha, so to speak, your brother and I are going to take advantage of our little princess Wan Ning again this time." Shen Chen smiled. He had already thought of this matter. Don't look at following Xiao Nizi. The people in the city were just some followers and old slaves from the Beifeng Hou Mansion, but this was just because the girl changed her route midway and hurriedly went to rescue Liu Hanyan, so she was separated from the large group of people.
Shen Chen had never dared to look down on his daughter, the Beifeng Marquis father. In his impression, any one of the hundreds of famous generals under the Beifeng Marquis would be able to look down upon them with arrogance. Countless sects, families, and tribes.
Even the domineering Jin Teng that he met before, according to Shen Chen's estimation, is at least a strong man at the peak of the Bone Forging Realm. Generally, two or three of the big families stationed in the main city can come out of this kind of existence. They are already quite remarkable, and most of them are figures from the older generation...
