Zhu Shuai looked at everyone and looked at himself and Zhu Rong one after another, and he thought in his heart slightly, thinking suspiciously, could it be that there are any other regulations in this family code that are related to him. However, looking at the-for-tat confrontation of everyone during this time, Zhu Shuai was also a lot disappointed in the Zhu family.

No wonder the Zhu family has fallen so far in recent years, it is not entirely because of the suppression of the Han family and the Liang family, but the Zhu family itself has contradictions. A family cannot be completely united, fighting on its own, and how can it compete with other forces. Such a family, even if there is no interference from the outside world, I am afraid it will not last long.

"If you choose a new patriarch according to the provisions of the clan code, I am afraid that it will be unfair to Brother Zhu Qing, you all know that Zhu Shuai's cultivation talent is not good, and it is much worse than Zhu Rong. Hearing the Great Elder say this, Zhu Ming frowned slightly and spoke.

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, then what do you say, this patriarch has to be elected!" Hearing that the Great Elder decided to use that rule to choose the patriarch, Zhu Jing's face was originally happy, but Zhu Ming immediately came out to refute, which made Zhu Jing a little unhappy and spoke.

"Hehe, our Zhu family has been inherited for so long, and some rules cannot be broken. Since things have developed to this point today, then we can only use that rule, Zhu Qing, what do you think?" the Great Elder smiled slightly, looked at his father and said.

Hearing the Great Elder say this, the father, who was originally silent, smiled indifferently and said: "I didn't want to fight for the position of the patriarch of the Zhu family, but if the second brother insists on taking refuge in the Liang family, then the eldest brother I have to tell you that the enmity between the Zhu family and the Liang family, since it is over, will not be easily erased, so, this patriarch, I'm afraid I can't give it to you, just do what the Great Elder said!"

As soon as his father's words came out, everyone in the audience looked at him in amazement. The last time Zhu Ming came back from Xiumu City, everyone in the clan naturally asked him about the situation of Zhu Qing's father and son, and when they learned that Zhu Shuai's cultivation was blocked and he was still in the power of the fourth stage of wood, they all shook their heads and regretted it.

And the rule of the Zhu family code has extremely high requirements for the juniors, this Zhu Qing, does he have to give up the position of the patriarch? But judging from his words, he didn't mean this.

"Haha, okay, since Zhu Qing has no objections, then it is settled, I announce as the Great Elder that this selection of the patriarch will be carried out in accordance with the inheritance method of the clan code, Zhu Qing Zhu Jing, Zhu Shuai and Zhu Rong, the four of you will prepare for each other, and after half an hour, see you in the family martial arts field!" The Great Elder said with a smile and left the meeting hall.

The rest of the people, some followed Zhu Jing out of the conference hall with a proud face, and some of them glanced at Zhu Qing with regret, shook their heads and left alone, and only Zhu Shuai's father and son and Zhu Long were left in the huge conference hall.

"Father, what does the method of family inheritance mean?" asked Zhu Shuai suspiciously.

"Zhu Shuai's grandson, grandpa will tell you about it!" At this time, Zhu Long, who was sitting in the first place, said with a slightly gloomy look: "The clan code stipulates that when there is a disagreement in the election of the new patriarch and there are disagreements in the clan, the election will be conducted in accordance with the law of inheritance. The law of inheritance not only has requirements for the new patriarch, but also for the next candidate patriarch, that is to say, if the election is carried out by the method of inheritance, there are requirements not only for your father, but also for you. ”

Zhu Long said slowly. After listening to his grandfather's explanation, Zhu Shuai understood what this so-called inheritance method meant. However, judging from Zhu Jing and Zhu Rong's expressions when they left, they seemed to be bound to win this competition?

With a faint smile in his heart, Zhu Shuai shook his head. It seems that in this continent where the law of the jungle eats the strong, only strength is the root of everything. In the eyes of Zhu Rong's father and son, I'm afraid that he is still the waste who is bullied. Unfortunately, too much has happened in the course of the year.

"Get ready, I'm afraid it's up to you for a while!" the father smiled faintly, sat cross-legged on the side, and began to adjust his state. Seeing this, Zhu Shuai didn't say much, sat cross-legged, his handprints were knotted, and he entered the state of cultivation.

Half an hour passed quickly, and Zhu Shuai and his father followed behind Zhu Long and walked towards the martial arts arena.

At this time, everyone in the Zhu family had all heard about the patriarch election, and they came to the competition ground one after another, waiting for the start of the competition. The entire martial arts arena was surrounded by water.

Zhu Jing's father and son stood with the Great Elder on the side, their faces full of pride.

"Zhu Jing, I've already helped you win this competition, you should be sure!" said the Great Elder with a smile.

"Haha, thank you Great Elder for today's incident. Don't worry, although my eldest brother has the strength of a third-stage mage, which is on par with me, but Zhu Shuai's waste is not Rong'er's opponent at all, and now Rong'er has cultivated to the level of a sixth-stage mage, so I will win today's competition. Zhu Jing said with a laugh.

"That's great, in the future, when you become the patriarch, we will take refuge in the Liang family, and we will no longer have to be bullied like now. Our Zhu family, now that we are down here, we are really worthy of our ancestors!" the Great Elder narrowed his eyes slightly and said slowly.

At this time, Zhu Shuai and his father also came to the martial arts arena. Seeing that there were so many people crowded here, his brows couldn't help frowning. Most of these people came to see themselves and their fathers make a fool of themselves!

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zhu Long flashed on the stone platform in the center of the martial arts arena, and said: "All the clansmen of the Zhu family, the old man is already old and can no longer take on the role of patriarch, so after the discussion of the elders, the selection of the new patriarch is carried out here today with the method of inheritance of the clan code. The method of inheritance, presumably everyone knows it, and the old man will not say more. However, no matter what the outcome of the day is, everyone must look forward to the new patriarch, and must not have two minds, if there is betrayal, they will suffer from the clan rules!"

Zhu Long's words attracted everyone in the Zhu family present, and everyone waved their arms one after another, expressing their willingness to accept the leadership of the new patriarch.

"Zhu Qing, Zhu Shuai, Zhu Jing and Zhu Rong, no matter which of the four of you wins, are you willing to accept the other party's control?" Zhu Long turned his head and asked again.

"Father, the child willing. Father nodded.

"Father, don't worry, if the eldest brother wins today, I will definitely listen to the eldest brother's arrangement in the future!" Zhu Jing said with a swear.

"That's great. Since everyone has no objections, let's start the competition! In the first game, Zhu Qing played against Zhu Jing. Remember, this battle is about competition, so stop there. After Zhu Long finished speaking, he walked down the stone platform and sat on the seat of the patriarch above. And the rest of the elders of the clan also sat on both sides of Zhu Long.

Father and Zhu Jing walked slowly to the stone platform and stood opposite each other.

The surrounding people immediately shouted and cheered for the two. Zhu Qing is a third-stage magician of the gold system, and Zhu Jing is a third-stage magician of the water system, and the strength of the two is between the two of them, so this battle must be very exciting. If it weren't for the election of a new patriarch today, this level of competition would be rarely seen in ordinary times.

"Second brother, I'm offended!" said the father with a slight fist clench.

"Big brother, I don't know if you and I will win or lose, but with the strength of Zhu Shuai's little nephew, I'm afraid he is not my family's opponent, so this competition is conceded!" Zhu Jing's eyes flashed a trace of cunning, and he said with a smile.

"Haha, I didn't know until I beat it!" his father laughed, and the handprints began to flip, and the gold elements around his body began to slowly condense.

"Big brother is right, I won't know until I beat it!" Zhu Jing snorted coldly, took out a magic staff from his waist, and began to wave it.

Zhu Shuai thought to himself in his heart. Although his father and second uncle Zhu Jing are both third-stage magicians, his father has been dealing with demonic beasts all year round and has a lot of combat experience. And the second uncle is also pampered in the family and has not experienced a real battle of life and death, so this battle should be the father's higher victory rate.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Shuai was relieved. For his second uncle, Zhu Shuai has no feelings at all. Besides, just now in the council room, he mentioned his mother more than once, and his words were full of malice, if it weren't for the fact that he was a junior and didn't want them to say that his father had no way to teach his son, he would have argued with him a long time ago.

The two elements of gold and water on the martial arts field kept flying, and my father and Zhu Jing also fought for dozens of rounds. Everyone around them turned red and shouted.

And Zhu Shuai just glanced at the scene and then withdrew his gaze. Father's combat experience is obviously higher than Zhu Jing's, and just now there are several opportunities, and his father can defeat Zhu Jing. But his father obviously had good intentions at this time, and he couldn't be cruel to his younger brother, so he was entangled with him until now.

It seems that the competition between my father and Zhu Jing is going to end in a draw, so who will be the patriarch today, it will depend on my own competition with Zhu Rong.

Thinking in his heart, Zhu Shuai couldn't help but look at Zhu Rong on the side, but found that Zhu Rong was also looking at him at this time, and his eyes were full of banter.

Hehe, I remember that day in the mercenary group, you Zhu Rong and I were quite rude to my father, now, let you be proud for a while, wait for the competition to start, and then let you experience the consequences of being rude to your father!

Thinking coldly in his heart, Zhu Shuai withdrew his gaze.

As Zhu Shuai expected, his father and Zhu Jing fought, although the scene looked very exciting, but his father never made a dead move, so between the two of them, neither of them had an advantage, and after hundreds of rounds of continuous entanglement, his father withdrew from the battle circle.

When Zhu Jing saw his father withdraw, he immediately stood aside, panting in his mouth. Just after fighting with Zhu Qing, Zhu Jing obviously felt that he was not his opponent, but Zhu Qingnian was in brotherhood and did not take a heavy hand on himself.

"Second brother, there is little difference in strength between you and me, how about this game end in a draw?" Looking at Zhu Jing, who was slightly embarrassed on the side, his father said with a smile.
