Chapter 2 Do You Think You've Got Me?
Seeing that Anthony had arrived, the mayor coughed lightly and said, "Everyone, please be quiet. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoToday is the Bruce family, Master Anthony's coming-of-age assessment. In accordance with the regulations of the empire, and in order to ensure the fairness and impartiality of the assessment, in addition to the Bruce family, we also invited all the nobles in the town to attend the ceremony. Now I declare, Anthony? Bruce's aristocratic adult assessment has officially begun! ”
The patriarch of the Bruce family had a smile on his face, and said as if encouragingly: "Anthony, you have to behave well later, and don't embarrass your grandfather." ”
Anthony said calmly: "Please rest assured, Patriarch, I will not disappoint you." ”
Everyone who knew Anthony was stunned, this was completely different from the imaginary scene. Looking at his calm appearance, is he sure that he will pass the assessment?
The mayor came back to his senses and asked Anthony, "Young Master Anthony, please choose the method of assessment." ”
According to the regulations, teenagers who are taking the adult assessment can choose one of the three items of magic, fighting spirit and battle as their own assessment item. Generally speaking, as long as they can reach the level of a trainee mage or trainee fighter, they will be able to pass the examination successfully.
Even with the help of the system, Anthony still didn't master any magic or vindictiveness. So for him, there is only one optional item in this assessment.
"I'm going to fight." Anthony said in a calm tone.
"Okay." Mayor Mare nodded, and said to a big man in armor beside him, "Bart, it's up to you to take the battle assessment with Anthony Boy." ”
Before the big man named Bart could answer, Anthony had already opened his mouth to stop: "Wait a minute! ”
The mayor asked, "Master Anthony, do you have any questions?" ”
Anthony said, "Mayor, I have a request. I'd like to ask the patriarch of the Bruce family to appoint a fighter to take a battle test with me, so it will be more fair and impartial. lest after I pass the assessment, someone will make irresponsible remarks behind my back. ”
Everyone understands that when Anthony says "someone", he is referring to the members of the Bruce family. However, if the Bruce family arranges the assessment of the fighters, there is really no chance to release water and tricks. Could it be that Anthony, the well-known double-material scrapwood, has mastered some secret weapon and is confident to pass this assessment?
The patriarch of the Bruce family looked disdainful. What a bullshit secret weapon, the family investigates this Anthony in great detail, he is a waste wood. Originally, the patriarch was also worried about what local forces such as the mayor of the town would do in this adult assessment in order to resist the entry of the Bruce family's forces. Now Anthony has played this game with his own cleverness, which is simply digging his own grave, so that the patriarch no longer has the slightest worry.
"Good. In that case, Carrot, it's up to you to be the assessment fighter for Young Master Anthony in this assessment. The patriarch said quickly, for fear that Anthony would change his mind.
"Yes, Patriarch!" A tall, muscular middle-aged man saluted the patriarch with a fist, then stepped into the arena and stood across from Anthony.
Mayor Mare's mouth moved, but he didn't say anything. This request did not violate the rules of the empire, and it was made by the examiner on his own initiative, and he had no right to oppose or stop it.
Anthony still stood with a relaxed face, not even looking at Carrot, who was standing opposite. Instead, he turned to the patriarch and said, "Patriarch, I have one more request. ”
"You say." The patriarch replied unconcernedly.
"If I can successfully pass the adult examination today, I hope that the patriarch will return all the family's property in the town to me. May I? Anthony put on a pleading expression.
The patriarch was stunned when he heard this, and then his face turned red and blue, and he said fiercely: "Of course you can!" ”
According to the regulations, as long as Anthony can successfully pass the examination, he will be able to completely inherit everything in this vein, including of course all the properties in the town. Needless to say, this is not at all. It's just that because everyone knows that it is impossible for him to pass the assessment, and these properties will be returned to the lord's family sooner or later, the patriarch has already sent someone to take over the management a few months ago, and the income is also privately retained, so as not to be ruined by Anthony's waste wood.
These secret deeds are naturally very inappropriate and damage the reputation and face of the family. But at that time, Anthony was completely desperate for his future and did not think of doing anything to stop it. If the person concerned does not speak, there is no room for others to peck. And so things passed in a blur.
Now that Anthony has made the matter clear, it is equivalent to a big slap in the face of the Bruce family in public, making the main family a big ugly thing in front of these small country nobles.
The patriarch gritted his teeth secretly, he had heard that this double waste wood had been smart since he was a child, and his brain was very bright, so he didn't expect to experience it on this occasion. His question, coupled with a pitiful and begging look, set off the shameless and greedy face of the main family to snatch the property of the lonely and helpless young man of the branch. And whether the patriarch agrees or refuses the request, it will only attract the ridicule of others.
"What's the use of being smart, you're always a double scrap. When you fail the assessment and are swept away, I hope you don't come back to beg me. ”
The patriarch thought as he shouted to Carrot, who was standing stupidly: "Carrot, the adult assessment of the nobles of the empire is sacred and serious, you must use all your strength, and you must not be soft in the slightest because Anthony is of the same clan as us, understand?" ”
Carrot smiled and said, "Understood, Patriarch! "Hung out like a fool, he was already dissatisfied. The hint of the patriarch, which almost everyone understood, was naturally to his heart.
"Come on, Master Anthony." Carrot struck his fists together, making a snapping sound.
Only then did Anthony turn his head and look into Carrot's eyes: "You're just a beginner-level Black Iron Fighter, do you think you can eat me?" ”
Carrot didn't answer, but took a step forward and punched Anthony in the face. Looking at the momentum, if this punch is solid, I am afraid that it will directly kill Anthony.
The mayor of the town next to him and the local nobles all cursed secretly: "Shameless! ”
According to the rules of the Empire, the strength of the examiner should be a beginner-level black iron fighter. As long as the assessed teenager can fight against the examiner for ten moves without losing, he will pass the assessment.
Generally speaking, the examiners will only use 70% of their strength and rarely give their best. Otherwise, the number of nobles in the empire would have to be reduced by at least half.
This Carrot not only used a ferocious killing move when he came up, but also took the lead without a sound, which was simply to kill Anthony without regard for face.
Anthony, however, seemed to have expected it, tiptoeing a little, his body drifting back and narrowly avoiding Carrot's must-kill punch.
Carrot was stunned, he didn't expect this famous scrap wood to avoid his fist. But he didn't care, he stomped on the ground and chased after him.
Anthony made another easy lateral move, again avoiding a punch from Carrot.
After all, he has just received the strength and skills given by the system, and he has not yet experienced any actual combat tests. To be on the safe side, Anthony didn't choose to go head-to-head with Carrot, but instead dodged and took the opportunity to familiarize himself with his new powers.
Seeing Anthony successfully dodge Carrot's two must-kill punches, Mayor Marew and the others looked surprised. Is this the original Anthony's hole card? It's a bit tricky, but after all, there is nothing illegal against the rules of the Empire. As long as he can support Carrot's ten-move attack and not lose, this assessment will be considered a success.
The patriarch was itching his teeth from the side, but there was nothing he could do, so he had to shout loudly: "Anthony, are you going to dodge and pass the assessment like this?" You want your parents and grandpa to disgrace you in heaven. ”
Anthony's face was cold, and the patriarch's words touched his scales. Anthony, who is a double wastewood, has had enough of ridicule, contempt, and staring, and even brings his parents and grandfather to shame because of him. Anthony, who has now gained great power, will continue to endure the provocations of these boring villains?
Not only do I want to pass the test, but I also want to show you how strong I am!
Anthony didn't dodge anymore, squatted down slightly with his feet, stood firm, and suddenly struck out with his left palm. It is one of the seventy-two Shaolin stunts known for its fierceness and uncasting: "Mighty King Kong Palm"!
Bang!
There was a loud thunderous thud, and then under the incredulous gaze of everyone, Carrot staggered back a few steps, her face flushed.
Anthony, on the other hand, still maintained the posture he had just made, standing firmly in place.
"Waste Firewood" Anthony actually dared to fight against Carrot of the junior Black Iron Fighter, and even repelled Carrot?!
