"My Shen family is really a great genius!" In the main hall of the Shen family, Shen Hongtian sat in it and laughed loudly.

Although they have returned home, they still haven't fully digested the shock that Shen Li has brought to everyone, and they are still immersed in the joy and excitement before.

Among the three major families in Jiang Yuancheng, the Shen family has always been in a relatively awkward position, especially in the recent period, everyone can feel the huge pressure brought to them by the Du Yang and Qi families.

At this time, Shen Li was born out of thin air, first showing great strength, and now he defeated Jiang Tianluan from the Jiang family in Taiyu City in front of so many people, which not only severely frustrated the other party's prestige, but also brought great glory to the family, which made them very excited.

As soon as they heard this, Shen Ze, Shen Hongyun and the others were all smiling, and their eyes fell on Shen Li's body, Shen Li's performance this time could be described as a blockbuster, shocking Jiang Yuancheng's powerful figures, bringing a long-lost excitement to the family that had a heavy atmosphere.

"Ahem" For everyone's burning gaze, Shen Li just smiled awkwardly, and it was not easy to answer.

"Tianxing, if you faced that Jiang Tianluan in your heyday, I'm afraid you wouldn't be sure of victory, right?" Shen Hongtian suddenly asked.

"That's nature. Shen Tianxing nodded.

"But Shen Li is only a seventh-stage cultivator, but he can win so heartily, you have to work hard, haha, don't lose to your younger brother. Shen Hongtian laughed.

"My second brother is a natural asset, what is the surname Jiang? But I will work hard, and work with my second brother to revitalize my Shen family. Shen Tianxing said.

"Li'er, the last martial arts you used was the Wind Thunder Seal?" Shen Hongtian suddenly asked.

"Yes. Shen Li was silent for a while, and then answered.

"Doesn't that mean that you can" Hearing this, Shen Hongyun was also surprised, he was very clear about the wind and thunder seal, and he needed mental power to urge it.

"To be honest, I don't know," Shen Li said honestly.

"Forget it, don't ask, everything about Shen Li is his creation, from the vision that fell from the sky when he was born, to the sudden awakening now, who can guess this change?" Shen Hongtian said.

"Yes, that's true, it's a blessing for my Shen family to be able to do this, why bother to delve into this?" Shen Hongyun also nodded.

"Shen Li, from today onwards, I will grant you permission to use all the cultivation resources in the family, you can only say that you need it, and I will help you get it if I do my best, and even the Library Pavilion I will allow you to come and go at will. As if he had made up his mind, Shen Hongtian gritted his teeth and said suddenly.

"Hiss"

Upon hearing this, everyone gasped and looked at Shen Hongtian incredibly, thinking that such treatment was too amazing, and they had never heard of a person from the Shen family who could be so valued.

"This" Shen Li was also surprised.

"Don't worry about anything, since you have shown such a strong talent, it is worth cultivating you in the family. This world is respected by martial arts, as long as the force is strong, the power and status are everything, if you can work hard and live up to everyone's hopes to become a strong party, then it will be in vain for the family's attention and cultivation of you. Shen Hongtian's eyes were scorching, and he said solemnly.

"Grandpa Xie, Shen Li swears here that he will not disappoint your expectations, become a strong party, and make a great name for the family. Shen Li also rushed straight to his head with enthusiasm, and said loudly with a fist salute.

"Okay, this is worthy of being the boy of my Shen family!" Shen Hongtian laughed.

After that, Shen Li began to cultivate intensely, and now although he is amazingly talented, he does not dare to slack off in cultivation.

Every day, Shen Li got up early, ran all the way towards the back mountain, ran and walked through the mountain road, four or five laps in a row, and now he is still the cultivation of the first martial realm, and the cultivation of ** is still very important.

And during the day, Shen Li will continue to cultivate martial arts in addition to cultivating internal strength, whether it is in the hands of Fuhu Fist or Qianying, although he already has the strength of Dacheng, but he will still practice tirelessly, there is no highest martial arts on the way, even a generation of grandmasters dare not say that he has practiced a certain martial arts to the extreme, only through continuous cultivation, can he truly grasp the essence of martial arts and play a more powerful force.

In addition to his regular cultivation, Shen Li would also go to the Chamber of Commerce to help Shen Ze take care of business, and after a long time, Shen Li found that Shen Ze's face was ugly recently, and he was depressed and unhappy, as if something was difficult.

In the study, Shen Li sent Shen Ze a cup of tea, and saw that Shen Ze's expression was slightly pale, and there were bloodshot in his eyes, as if it was caused by staying up late.

"Father, what's wrong with you?" Shen Li asked as he thought of his father's abnormality in his recent words, feeling strange.

"It's nothing" Shen Ze barely squeezed out a smile and shook his head.

"Don't lie to me, you've been depressed and smiling for so many days, and now you look ugly, something must have happened. Shen Lidao.

"Hey" Speaking of this, Shen Ze couldn't help but shake his head, and let out a long sigh, full of sadness in his sigh.

"What the hell is going on, you say, isn't this making people anxious?" Shen Li was very impatient and urged.

"Well, you're a pillar of the family now, so it doesn't hurt to tell you. Shen Ze sighed, knowing that he couldn't hide it, and asked, "Do you know the current situation of the family?"

"It's not very clear, shouldn't it be very good?" Shen Li frowned.

"It's not good, it's bad. Shen Ze shook his head: "Although my Shen family is named the three major families of Jiang Yuancheng, its status has always been quite embarrassing, because our background and power cannot compete with the other two. Back then, your grandfather and grandfather came to this Jiangyuan City and established the Shen family in a bloody storm, and after three generations of hard work, they had such a family business today. But compared with Yang and Qi, we are rising stars after all, and in terms of heritage, we are too much worse. ”

"But aren't we very good now?" asked Shen Li with a frown, he really felt so in his heart.

"Very good? That's not clear to you, not to mention the rest, just my Shen family's business, you can also notice that the income of our business is constantly shrinking, and there are fewer and fewer merchants willing to cooperate with us. Why? Because of the exclusion of the Yang and Qi families. Compared with them, our Shen family is small, and those merchants naturally dare not cooperate with us because of their majesty. ”

"Could it be that the two of them can still swallow my Shen family?" Shen Li said angrily.

"What's impossible? Even if the two of them don't take action from now on, just make it difficult for us in business, our Shen family will inevitably struggle, and when even eating becomes a problem, what else can we do to fight them?" Shen Ze said miserably.

"Shall we just sit back and let them squeeze us out?"

"So what? As long as the two of them are strong one day, other businesses will not dare to cooperate with us. He Yang and Qi embarrassed my Shen family in business, and it was all some secret actions, and we had nowhere to reason, let alone the strength to put on a posture with them to talk. Li'er, you are still too young after all, in this world, the law of the jungle eats the strong, there are no rules and morals at all, unless you have enough strength, otherwise the two of them will not ruin my Shen family, and then encroach on our property, they will not stop. Shen Ze sighed heavily and leaned on the chair, as if he was ten years old.

Shen Li's fists clenched tightly, and his green muscles burst out, but after a while, he could only sigh helplessly, yes, just like Shen Ze said, without strength, what can you do?

The Yang and Qi families have now taken into account some of the rules and agreements on the surface, and have not completely torn their faces to suppress the Shen family, if that is the case, the Shen family's situation will be ten times more difficult than now.

"My Shen family is really struggling now?" asked Shen Li.

"Probably worse. Shen Ze laughed at himself: "You know the martial arts competition that will be held in a month, right?"

"Yes, my eldest brother told me. Shen Li nodded.

"The five-year martial arts tournament is actually not decided by the three of us through discussion, and the Taibai King leads all the rules of the city. Nominally, it is a contest of martial arts, a contest of the younger generation, but it is more about fighting for the interests of the family. Young people are the most important resource of a family, and whether young people are strong or not also determines the development of the family in the future. Do you know why our Jiang Yuancheng is the three major families instead of the four major families?"

"I don't know. Shen Li shook his head.

"Compared to other small families, the difference between us is that they are commoners, and we are nobles, but we are quasi-nobles, and one step higher, we are real nobles, barons. In the Taibai royal territory, each city has three major families, and they are also quasi-nobles. Although they are quasi-nobles, they are the difference between heaven and earth compared to commoners, just look at our power in Jiangyuan City. It is precisely because of the temptation of this huge power that I don't know how many families want to get the title of this quasi-nobleman, and if you want to get the title of this quasi-nobleman, the most direct way is to ban one of the three major families, and the time is in this martial arts competition. ”

"What else is going on?" Shen Li was quite surprised, he knew that the Shen family was a quasi-nobleman, but it was the first time he had heard of the actual role of this martial arts competition, and the relationship was so important.

"Among the three major families in Jiangyuan City, my Shen family is the weakest, and among the other families, there must be three or four families that are not weaker than my Shen family, so maybe before the Yang and Qi families squeeze my Shen family down, the status of my Shen family has been replaced by other families. Shen Ze said amazingly.
