Chapter Eighty-Six: Rumors Like the Wind
"Nie Lin, are you interested in talking alone?"
At the arena, several people who were waiting there ran to block the way of the contestants as soon as the race was over.
This is just a representative of a small force, and it seems that he has no confidence in speaking, but since he started, the other forces lurking around the arena have realized what is happening, and they have quickly surrounded him.
"Nie Lin, our Sword Sect Elder would like to invite Your Excellency to the Sword Moon Tower......
"The Divine Sword Gate will be your ideal choice, the cheats of the exercises, the elixir, whatever you choose......"
"Your Excellency, the head disciple of the True Sword Sect, can come at any time!"
"There is an elder of the Divine Sword Sect, waiting for ......"
The people from the Zhengjian Sect next to him saw that the people from the Divine Sword Sect also came to make trouble, and the two sides were full of sparks, and the people from the Zhengjian Sect saw that everyone continued to walk outside the passage, so they shouted: "Brother Nie, the elder of this sect has a banquet in Jianyue Tower, I want to invite Your Excellency to appreciate your face, go to Jianyue Tower to have a banquet......"
Before this person finished speaking, the disciples of the Zhengjian Sect called out: "Our elders of the Zhengjian Sect invite all the participating little brothers Jianyue Tower to the banquet, you little brothers must go to enjoy the light in the evening, the opportunity is in front of you, don't miss it......"
At this time, I saw that the people sent by these large and small forces were all gathered in front of the exit channel, one by one, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, everyone's eyes were on Nie Lin's body, that kind of heat, so that they couldn't wait to snatch Nie Lin back immediately and complete the task assigned by the elders, most of them came to place an invitation, and they didn't expect to run into a piece, which was unexpected.
Seeing this scene, the audience who was about to leave the stage was curiously glaring at Nie Lin, who had calmly exited, and they couldn't figure out why this famous guy who had never heard much of it was so favored by the major forces and competing to recruit him.
However, most people think that this kind of thing is simply ridiculous, how can the two major sects be said to be top forces, the existence of being looked up to, the important position of the elder in the door is actually cheaper than the cabbage, and even the basic majesty is gone, which means that these two sects are not much better.
In this way, the people who didn't know Nie Lin in the first place, after this incident, after the tens of thousands of spectators in the arena focused their eyes on here, even those who didn't want to know him now knew him.
Fortunately, those people didn't pounce like wolves and tigers, and they couldn't block the exit passage, so Nie Lin just didn't say a word, and he didn't even have the interest to take a look at those people, so he mixed in with a bunch of young people who were leaving the venue and joined Lu Xueyan.
"Brother Nie......"
However, after he had withdrawn from the meeting, there were still people who did not want to come forward, but before he broke into the passage, he was put up by two fierce guards and carried out like a dead dog, and the man kicked his legs indiscriminately, and his mouth was still barking...... It's just that after this trouble, after Nie Lin left the stage in a low-key manner, those teenagers who participated in the competition had some popular figures competing for the top spot, and after returning to the rest place, they also privately inquired about Nie Lin's relevant information, and regarded him as the biggest competitor of this competition.
And that night, Nie Lin's deeds on the competition field, as well as being invited by the major favorites after the game, and the things that he intended to solicit became a hot topic after people's tea and dinner, which also made the name Nie Lin, like a strong wind, spread quickly throughout the Yanjing capital overnight, and even continued to spread like the wind to all parts of Kyoto.
However, after Nie Lin's failure to use a sword on the competition field, it was spread by some gossip people, and many people were questioning, whether he was really unwilling to use a sword, or was his own strength not very good, so he could only pretend to be forced to cover it up in this way?
But there are also people talking about these two top power sects, their strength is very strong in the sky, there is no doubt about it, but they used such stupid means to recruit talents, this is obviously not the style of these two powerful sects, some people suspect that these two sects may also be calculated.
Although Nie Lin's competition was quite controversial, it was the Tianlu Academy that people questioned him the most, in the past, this Tianlu Academy was very weak in kendo because of Lu Zhaonan, in addition to being a little famous in the northern area, which was a thing that many people have known for many years.
But now, Tianlu Academy has produced such a fan-like Nie Lin, and today there is the only woman who has advanced to the top 24 in the competition, also from Tianlu Academy, and coupled with the beauty and wisdom of this woman, as well as his huge influence on the contestants and the audience, after quickly generating a huge fan base, it also made most people's attention, because Nie Lin also paid attention to Tianlu Academy at the same time.
It seems that in this night, due to the impact of the Nie Lin incident, the name of Tianlu Academy, which is in the school, quickly began to spread in various places, coupled with some political means, the reputation of Tianlu Academy almost covered up Nie Lin, and overnight it was like a bomb, after Yanjing blossomed, it quickly began to spread in all directions with the momentum of the wind and waves, and quickly entered the sight of the ordinary people in the world.
Overnight, the reputation of the Heavenly Road Academy spread throughout the entire Heavenly Empire, which was something that everyone had never expected, and the speed was so fast that it was staggering, as if it had been brewed a long time ago, just waiting for this day to break out at the same time.
And some people with a keen sense of touch have realized that Tianlu Academy, which is about to rise in the obscure Chinese education academy from now on, will shine in the future.
...... However, after this kind of incident, the reactions of the various forces were different, and the most angry of them were the Divine Sword Sect and the Righteous Sword Sect.
This time, they were thrust to the forefront.
That night, in the Sword Moon Tower, in the room of the people of the Divine Sword Sect, there were also a few people from the Righteous Sword Sect sitting, the face of the great elder of the Divine Sword Sect was a little pale, and the face of the elder of the Righteous Sword Sect was also very ugly, as for the expressions of the other people in the two factions, it was conceivable.
Mo Yunlong looked at Lu Yufeng from time to time, the strong hostility in his eyes, if it wasn't for the suppression of the elders, I am afraid that he would have rushed to the clouds to fight.
"So, the people on the arena weren't arranged by your Orthosis Sect?" Ruan Mingde, the Great Elder of the Divine Sword Sect, glared at the Orthosis Sect Elder Bai Kelu opposite with sharp eyes.
Bai Kelu raised his eyebrows and said, "The surname Ruan, the old man doesn't want to make any more senseless explanations, believe it or not, don't you also suspect that we also arranged for someone to do that stupid thing in that arena?"
Ruan Mingde said: "Since it was not arranged by us, then where did these people come from, and why did they do such things under the banner of my two major sects?"
Bai Kelu said: "Whoever wants to make a profit from the fisherman will naturally have the biggest suspicion, but now the old man doesn't want to talk to you about this, now that the reputation of you and I is tarnished, we must clarify it in time, otherwise if it is spread like this again, at this sword boy competition, the two families will not want to recruit another talent!"
Ji Shijie, who had not spoken next to him, said: "Even if it is clarified, it is too late, today's incident has already affected the image of our two families in front of the public, and the rumors of today's day are spreading so fast, I am afraid that the world will know about it in less than three days, and this bad thing has made those talented teenagers have a bad impression of us this year, which will be very unfavorable to us!"
Bai Kelu glanced at Ruan Mingde, and finally said in a deep voice: "Since I can't recruit a single talent from the Zhengjian Sect this year, then others don't want to recruit it, no matter which force wants to be a fisherman through this matter, it doesn't want to get better!"
After the people of the Orthodox Sword Sect left, the expression on Ruan Mingde's face eased slightly, and when Lu Yufeng saw it, he wondered: "Great Elder, will this Orthosis Sword Sect be suspected of being a thief shouting to catch a thief?"
Ruan Mingde shook his head: "If this is the case, then Bai Kelu will not come to the door in person, but those who deliberately do this and want to tarnish our reputation, no matter which force or individual, in fact, it is only in vain to do this, and then Bai Kelu is only for show, just try to see our attitude!"
Ji Shijie said: "Elder, the people of the shadow guard have not come forward, and the royal family seems to be very low-key this time, and they don't show up much, what do you think, will this matter be ......?"
Ruan Mingde said: "It is said that the lotus of a thousand-year-old sword lotus that the Shadow Guard obtained on the Biansai Snow Mountain last time was really stolen on the way back by a secret escort, and the Shadow Guard should be investigating the matter with all his might, but the words of the royal family ......"
Speaking of this, Ruan Mingde's expression flashed with a trace of disdain, and said: "In the royal family, if that woman doesn't speak, the emperor is just an ornament, but in the past, when the royal family was strong, the outstanding talents who appeared in each session of this sword boy competition would be given priority to be selected into the shadow guard, but now, even if they are selected into the shadow guard, I am afraid that it is no longer for the royal family, and what can be won by us, we naturally have to fight for it, how can we let the shadow guard continue to grow!"
Ji Shijie sighed and said, "But after this incident, I'm afraid that we want to recruit that Nie Lin, I'm afraid it's a little difficult!"
Ruan Mingde said suddenly: "We are not in a hurry, continue to pay attention, I think there should be a more exciting story tomorrow, twenty-four people came out and eight people from the Great Teaching Academy had a substitution match, only after this competition, we can see the true intentions of some people, and we can formulate countermeasures, so we have to wait for Ming Yue!"
"Why Ming, what will be the difference?" Lu Yufeng was puzzled.
"Ming, you will know!" Ruan Mingde glanced at Lu Yufeng deeply, but his eyes were aimed in the direction of the Holy Banquet Building opposite, and a different color flashed, and no one knew what he was thinking.
