Chapter Eighty-Seven: Big News
Regarding the death of his parents when he was a child, Fang Mo was never willing to tell others about it, because he didn't like those unnecessary sympathies.
So even in school, there are few people who know about his family situation, except for the level of the head teacher.
And this female reporter from Xinjing Media came out, and the first question she asked was about the death of her mother Zhou Qi, and she must have conducted a private investigation on Fang Mo through some means.
As for the source of this investigation, it is not known for the time being.
He glanced at the female reporter in front of him, who was still smiling, thought about it, and decided not to bother with her, after all, she didn't know anything about herself.
"Regarding the family situation, this is my personal privacy, and I cannot comment on it." Fang Mo replied indifferently.
There was a buzzing sound in the venue, and not only the reporters in the audience exchanged ears, but also the students on the stage who were interviewed exchanged colors with each other.
Although Fang Mo said that it was personal privacy and there was no way to comment, judging from his avoidance of this question, it was very likely that what the female reporter said was true.
Thinking that Fang Mo's mother was actually a Yuan Infant Realm cultivator, everyone couldn't help but become more surprised when they looked at Fang Mo, and many of them also showed expressions of sudden realization on their faces.
No wonder Fang Mo performed so well in the competition, more relaxed than the other contestants, it turned out to be a family inheritance.
Although Fang Mo's mother had passed away when he was two years old, there must have been something left behind to facilitate Fang Mo's cultivation, his cultivation was more convenient than ordinary people, and it was natural that he was performing well now.
The other 6 students who attended the press conference also looked at Fang Mo with surprised eyes.
They have been classmates with Fang Mo for three years, but they don't know much about Fang Mo, because Fang Mo has always been inconspicuous in school, that is, he has only performed well and received attention in recent times.
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a "second generation of repair"!
Fang Mo's answer obviously did not surprise the female reporter, she nodded, and continued: "Then the second question, I heard from the classmates who came with you before, that you came to participate in this selection competition on behalf of the Second High School Affiliated to Jingnan City of Open Heaven Sword Gate this time, in order to achieve excellent performance in the competition, so as to have the opportunity to be selected to enter the Open Heaven Sword Gate. ”
"But we all know that the main purpose of this selection competition is to allow the contestants to show their strength and talent to the major cultivation colleges of the Federation, so as to get more convenient opportunities to enter the major schools. Isn't it a little disrespectful for you to come with such a purpose? ”
Fang Mo was slightly stunned.
He had thought about this question, but he didn't expect a reporter to ask it so bluntly.
And this question is actually somewhat sinister.
If Fang Mo replied that their purpose was indeed like this, it would undoubtedly confirm that there was not enough respect for the selection competition, and of course it would cause dissatisfaction among the Academy Association.
And if the answer is no, they still have the intention of being selected to enter the major academies, then this is known by the Open Heaven Sword Sect represented by Govita, which will surely cause them unhappiness.
Fang Mo tilted his head and glanced at the six classmates sitting on his right.
If you want to blame Roald and another classmate who were interviewed before, they were too upright, and they were easily tricked by the reporters, and they told the truth.
Looking at the representatives of the Association of Academies who were sitting in the chair on the other side, I found that their faces had indeed become a little ugly, and I didn't know if they were dissatisfied with the female reporter asking this question, or if they were dissatisfied with Fang Mo's attitude.
After a little hesitation, Fang Mo replied, "Participating in this selection competition is indeed the requirement of the Open Heaven Sword Sect for us. And I believe everyone has also seen that we all used the same exercise when we participated in the competition, which was the Open Heaven Sword Qi taught by the Open Heaven Sword Gate. ”
The female reporter nodded.
This was indeed clearly demonstrated in the previous preliminaries, and it caused a heated discussion a few days ago.
"But that doesn't mean anything disrespectful about this tournament. It should be noted that the exercise taught to us by the Open Heaven Sword Gate is only a basic exercise of the Open Heaven Sword Gate, and they asked us to do this in the competition just to verify our ability and talent to learn and master the new exercises. We have only been in contact with this practice for half a month now. ”
Not only the female reporters, but everyone at the venue showed surprised expressions.
"In just half a month, you have been able to master a technique proficiently, and you have performed well in the competition, and you are really talented." The female reporter exclaimed.
"Thanks for the compliment." Fang Mo smiled. "What I want to say is that through this demonstration, we have not only fully proved our mastery and adaptation to the exercises of the Open Heaven Sword Gate, but also means that our ability to learn other exercises is also very strong. Therefore, even if we may not be able to enter the Open Heaven Sword Gate in the end, then if we enter any cultivation academy, we will definitely become an excellent student. ”
This is Fang Mo deliberately showing goodwill to the Academy Association.
Sure enough, hearing Fang Mo's last words, the face of the representative of the Academy United Association sitting on the rostrum looked a little better.
However, when the female reporter heard this, her eyes lit up, and she immediately asked: "In other words, in your minds, it is still the first choice to join the Open Heaven Sword Gate, and entering the major cultivation academies of the Federation is only the second choice after losing the selection of the Open Heaven Sword Gate?" ”
The question is even more sinister.
This female reporter is actually forcing Fang Mo and them to stand in line!
Fang Mo smiled.
If it had been before the sixth preliminaries with Zhang Fu, he might have given an ambiguous answer that neither side would have been offended, but now that he has made up his mind, he won't waver like this again.
"I don't know what the other students think, and I'm not qualified to represent them, so I can only give my answers. In my heart, I am more inclined to enter a cultivation academy than to join the Open Heaven Sword Sect. ”
Hearing this answer, the audience was in an uproar.
Roald and the others next to him looked at him even more shockedly.
What is Fang Mo talking about?
Say that compared to joining the Open Heaven Sword Sect, you are more inclined to enter the cultivation academy?
Is he crazy?!
He was a student of the Second High School Affiliated to Jingnan City of Open Heaven Sword Gate, and from the day he entered the school, he should have taken entering Open Heaven Sword Gate as his first goal.
And now, he even said that he wanted to enter the cultivation academy even more!
The female reporter in the audience couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
She originally deliberately asked this question to force Fang Mo, hoping that this young man would come up with a less formulaic answer so that he could make some news, but she didn't expect Fang Mo to give such an answer!
That's big news!
The students sent by the Second High School Affiliated to Jingnan City of the Open Heaven Sword Gate performed well in this preliminary round and attracted much attention, but now, Fang Mo, who performed the most outstanding among them, said in front of so many people that he didn't want to join the Open Heaven Sword Gate!
"That...... Fang Mo, can I ask you to confirm? What did you mean just now that you would rather want to join the cultivation academy within the Federation than join the Open Heaven Sword Sect? ”
"Yes." Fang Mo nodded and gave an affirmative answer.
The female reporter opened her mouth, and for a moment she forgot all the questions that should be asked later.
She was stunned, and the other reporters stood up one after another, rushing to ask questions to Fang Mo.
"Classmate Fang Mo, may I ask, why are you reluctant to join the Open Heaven Sword Sect?"
"Did you ever be unfairly treated by the Heavenly Sword Gate in school?
"It is said that when you enter the school, you need to sign an agreement with the Open Heaven Sword Sect, and if the Open Heaven Sword Gate is willing to recruit you after graduation in the future, you must agree, is this true?"
"Excuse me......"
……
……
For a while, the scene was very chaotic, and the host of the press conference had to stand up and loudly signal everyone to calm down.
And Fang Mo had already sat back at this time, smiling at the crowd in the audience fighting for me, as if it was none of his business.
Roald, who was sitting next to him, leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Hey, Fang Mo, you shouldn't be telling the truth, right?" You really don't want to enter the Open Heaven Sword Gate? ”
Fang Mo glanced at the other 5 classmates who were also looking at him curiously, shrugged his shoulders, and nodded, "Yes, what?" ”
"What!" Roald's eyes widened. "The Open Heaven Sword Sect is such a powerful old cultivation sect, compared to it, those cultivation academies in the Federation are all waste wood! You actually chose to join the Federal Academy instead of entering the Heavenly Sword Gate, are you crazy? ”
"I'm not crazy."
Fang Mo rolled his eyes, knowing that his choice would not be understood by them, and it would definitely be difficult for more people to understand, because no matter who looked at it, the Open Heaven Sword Sect would be much stronger than any cultivation academy in the Federation.
After all, the Earth Federation has only entered the cultivation era for more than a thousand years, and the accumulation of the foundation is still very weak, but the Open Heaven Sword Gate has existed for thousands of years, and the foundation is of course much deeper than that of the Earth Federation.
Compared with the two, you don't need to think about what to choose.
However, after seeing the internal breath attribute tester brought by Govita, Fang Mo was very disappointed with the refining level of the Open Heaven Sword Gate, knowing that after joining the Open Heaven Sword Gate, the improvement he could obtain was probably very limited, so he basically extinguished the idea of joining the Open Heaven Sword Gate.
Coupled with being stimulated by Zhang Fu just now, Fang Mo made up his mind, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his choice.
It's just that there is no way to explain these reasons to others, and Fang Mo can only shut up and ignore Roald's question.
Because of Fang Mo's unexpected answer, the press conference fell into a brief chaos, and when it was finally suppressed, the time for the press conference had arrived.
The host announced the end in a slightly embarrassed manner, and the interviewees quickly exited.
When he returned to the passage of the contestants, he met Li Xing and Wu Di on the way, and it seemed that they were waiting for Fang Mo here.
"Hey, Fang Mo, you have a lot of personality, I admire you." Li Xing still looked like a child, and walked over with a smile and patted Fang Mo's shoulder. "Are you interested in joining our martial arts gym? Let me tell you that our boss is very generous, and if a wonderful guy like you is willing to come, he will definitely satisfy you. ”
Wu Di next to him said much less, he just glanced at Fang Mo and asked, "Why?" ”
Fang Mo smiled at Li Xing first: "I'm not interested in joining the martial arts hall for the time being, because I don't make enough money. ”
Then he turned his head to look at Wu Di: "Because the Open Heaven Sword Gate doesn't have what I want." ”
Dropping these two answers, he turned and walked away, not giving the other party a chance to continue his questioning.
As soon as he walked out of the passage, he bumped into Zhang Fu who was waiting outside.
Zhang Fu stared at Fang Mo deadly, his eyes did not have the hatred that he had when he was defeated by Fang Mo before, but only revealed a strong puzzle.
Seeing him, Fang Mo couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.
It seems that his answer at the press conference has already spread, and the people who will come to ask him next will be far from Li Xing, Wu Di and Zhang Fu.
For days to come, he'd be annoyed by the same question.
This is probably called ...... Do not live if you have done your own iniquity.
