Chapter 54: Hey, Talent
"It's true that all the young men of the Royal Martial Arts Mansion are extraordinary, but the Five Clans Alliance shouldn't be arrogant. Whether it is a boy from the Royal Martial Arts Mansion or a boy from the Five Clans Alliance, they are all teenagers of the empire after all.
The Minister of State and the Lord Zongzheng have a broad field of vision and thoughtful thinking, which is beyond our reach, and the two adults come here to select the contestants, which has their own deep meaning. ”
Mu Hua changed his low-key and "graceful" style in the past, and when he spoke, he used fierce words and stabbed the iron dragon in the heart.
What kind of "supplementary statement" is this? The sentence "arrogant and self-deprecating" and the sentence "ignorant of lifting" are simply two resounding slaps in the face of Tielong.
The anger in his heart was depressed, but Tielong was inconvenient to attack, because the Lord Zongzheng on the seat couldn't wait to praise Mu Hua.
"Good! The leader of the Mu Vice Alliance has a strong sense of the overall situation and is a person who understands! ”
Gu Lin Mangyu's words were heartfelt, not scene.
In Gu Lin Mangyu's opinion, the selection of competitors from among the young men of the Five Clans Alliance was definitely the consensus of the important members of the empire.
From the perspective of Minister Moss, in order to reach an agreement as soon as possible, there is naturally no reason to refuse the innocuous conditions proposed by the Beihai people, and Princess Mei Xin has only one condition: let Huo Xu participate in the competition.
From the queen's point of view, since Huo Xu will definitely participate in the competition, she will simply hand over the remaining two places to the Five Clan Alliance, because the three Beihai teenagers who issued the challenge of the competition are really strong, even if the top three teenagers in the capital are selected, the chances of winning are not great.
This account, it is not difficult for the queen to calculate clearly: she responded to the battle with the strength of the whole country, and if she lost, she lost face; Lucky wins, wins without force. On the contrary, only with the strength of the Five Clans Alliance, if you win, it can better demonstrate the thickness of the empire's talent pool; It's not that much of a shame to lose.
From the perspective of other important members of the empire, they missed the two battles in the Nangong Youth Fighting Hall, and they were quite interested in the legendary Huo Xu, who hid a secret, and they all wanted to take a look, as long as there was Huo Xu to fight, as for who the other candidates were, whatever!
The reason why Gu Lin Mangyu was invited by Moss not to bring the new Gong Zheng with him, but to come to the Five Clans Alliance to finalize the candidates on the spot was precisely because he recognized this rare consensus of the important members of the empire and was happy to be a favor.
In addition, the purpose of his trip also included trying his best to suppress the iron dragon that was closely related to the time axis, and by the way, he inspected Mu Hua, who was courteous in advance.
Not to mention, Mu Hua's performance today is remarkable, without ventilating in advance, Mu Hua understood his intentions, and his words directly cleared Tielong's authority, and also paved the way for him to exert influence as a dignified sect.
"Ten years ago, the Five Clans Alliance was as strong as a cloud, its strength was world-beating, and its loyalty was even more evident! At that time, Huo Feng and others could be called imperial shares, and the Five Clans Alliance was a royal domain!
Looking at today's Five Clans Alliance, the strength is declining, the reserve force is withering, and the gap with the Beiming Sect, the Southern Xuanmen and other sects is getting wider and wider.
The reason for this is that some people use their private interests to abolish the public, act arbitrarily, and stir up a good Five Clan Alliance into a miasma! ”
Gu Lin Mangyu knocked on the table with a heavy face.
When the words fell, a cold sweat ran down Tie Long's back, he never expected that this Zongzheng Lord would come to the Five Clans Alliance for the first time, and he would come to such a big one.
No, this is not just a dismount, that tone, that kind of wording, all the words have been said to this, and his Tielong's status in the Five Clans Alliance is afraid that it will be difficult to protect!
In a flash of thought, Tielong woke up.
Among the three nobles on the seat, no matter how precious Princess Mei Xin's identity is, she is also a distant guest, and the Minister of State Moss is only symbolic, and the only one who can really determine his future and destiny is Gu Lin Mangyu.
"Master Zongzheng!" Tie Long stood up and saluted extremely respectfully: "The empire has handed over the heavy responsibility of the competition to the alliance, Tie is deeply honored, and the words are inappropriate, please forgive Lord Zongzheng."
The selection of contestants, the Five Clans Alliance should go all out, according to Tie's humble opinion, for the sake of prudence, it is better to test a few ninth-level Yuan Shao of our alliance, and whoever has outstanding strength will be selected. ”
After speaking, Tielong Baba looked at Gu Lin Mangyu's face, hoping to see even a little appreciation from it.
Gu Lin Mangyu was frosty, as if he had never heard of it.
Over there, Mu Hua secretly looked at Gu Lin Mangyu, and then at Huo Xu, suddenly his eyes rolled, and he got up and saluted: "Lord Zongzheng, Mu Mou added a few words." ”
The iron dragon couldn't help but look at Mu Hua sideways, and there were ten thousand divine beasts roaring and rushing in his heart.
With the approval of Gu Lin Mangyu, Mu Hua licked his lips and said loudly: "Lord Zongzheng, in my humble opinion, the selection of contestants should not only be based on rank, but must focus on actual combat experience.
Last time, the performance of our League teenager Huo Xu in the Nangong Youth Arena was obvious to all, and he should be the first choice to participate in the competition! ”
Gu Lin Mangyu was stunned, and couldn't help but smile at Mu Huawan: Hey, talent!
"That Japanese Zongzheng is also in the Nangong Youth Arena, although the young man of the royal family blindly underestimated the enemy, lacked experience on the spot, and lost a little wrongly, but Huo Xu's performance was really amazing.
Well, that's it! ”
Gu Lin Mangyu said with a gentle expression.
With a good sentence of "This matter is so decided", Gu Lin Mangyu directly named Huo Xu to participate in the competition, who would dare to raise objections?
The crowd standing with their backs to the south wall was stunned.
Needless to say, on the day of the autumn test, the two listened to Huo Xu mention several of the most prominent figures in the empire in the dining room, and at that time they thought that he was talking nonsense because of illusions after being cornered.
Although the subsequent development of the matter gradually proved that it was not nonsense, how could it be like today, the Zongren Mansion Zong Zheng actually called Huo Xu's name in public, which was mind-blowing?
This clearly shows that Huo Xu is really dealing with a group of prominent people!
Huo Twist, Mu Fang, and Tie Xin Lian looked at Huo Xu in amazement, and if they gave the three of them another five hundred years of life, they couldn't figure out how Huo Xu could let Master Zongzheng remember the name of a young student?
Even Huo Fu, who was surprised, couldn't help but look at this distant cousin with admiration.
Huo Jing was palpitating, with a gray sky hanging in his head, and his thoughts were messy in the sound of rain.
Of course, among the people in the audience, the most shocked was none other than Tielong.
Tie Long realized that Huo Xu had already registered with Gu Lin Mangyu, and if he didn't want to die, he should put away the idea of killing Huo Xu as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, even if he was unwilling in his heart, Tielong could only choose to accept his fate.
Gu Lin Mangyu slowly moved his eyes, looked at Gray Rose with a smile and said, "The remaining two candidates, I don't know if Counselor Rose has any intentions?"
Oh, the three teenagers brought by Princess Mei Xin are all very strong, one is a third-stage yuanshi, a second-stage yuanshi, and a ninth-level yuanshi. According to Princess Mei Xin, the ninth-level Yuan Shao was not promoted because of the suppression of medicinal power, and in terms of strength, that person was comparable to the second-level Yuanshi.
Counselor Rose picks people, and must abide by the rules, the selection is limited to boys and girls under the age of 16, if it is a Yuanshi, it must be a new Yuanshi in this year's autumn examination, and the previous Yuanshi is not counted. ”
What?!
As soon as these words came out, the people in the audience were collectively dumbfounded.
A third-stage Yuanshi, a second-stage Yuanshi, and a ninth-level Yuanshao whose strength is equivalent to a second-stage Yuanshi, this lineup is really scary.
Even if you pick out three top players from the Royal Martial Arts Mansion to fight against them, I'm afraid they will only be beaten!
And in this year's autumn exam, the highest-level student of the Five Clans Alliance Yuan Shao Academy is only the ninth level Yuan Shao, how can he be qualified to play against others? You can't touch an egg on a stone, can you?
"The previous Yuanshi is not counted", nonsense, the Five Clans Alliance has not produced a new Yuanshi for several years!
Huo Fu, as well as Tie Shan, Mu Sen and others were full of expectations at first, looking forward to a little scenery after they were selected, but at this moment, when they learned the strength of the Beihai boy, they retreated in their hearts.
Gray Rose was very entangled, and she didn't know who to recommend for a while, but it was the same anyway, and the result was that she was beaten.
Tie Long didn't have time to think about it, he just knew to take his son out quickly, don't let him be beaten, shame the Tie clan, and disgrace him, the leader of the alliance.
"Master Zongzheng, Tie thought it was ······"
Almost at the same moment, Mu Hualang said: "Lord Zongzheng, Mu added ······"
The two collided, and had to pause at the same time.
The corners of Tielong's mouth twitched for a while, and a pair of thin eyes lit up with almost combustible lights, and he wanted to scold: Supplement your numbness! Labor and management didn't open their mouths, you add a dog!
Mu Hua also wanted to keep his son out of the matter, but at this moment, he thought deeper and farther than Tielong.
His eyes rolled again, Mu Hua was disgusted with words like "supplement", and said bluntly: "The dog Mu Sen is not talented, but he is also one of the highest-ranking teenagers in the Five Clan Alliance.
There is also the beloved son of the leader of the Iron Alliance, Tieshan, who can be called the best among the young people of the Alliance, and should be the best candidate to participate in the competition. ”
"Hoo ······" Tielong's chest was like a large mass of filth, and he was disgusted, but he couldn't make a sound, so he could only subconsciously exhale out.
Hearing Mu Hua's words, Gu Lin Mangyu's eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at Mu Hua for two breaths, and then nodded slowly with a smile.
Put the sons of the acting alliance leader and deputy alliance leader into the competition list, this is called "honor and disgrace bondage", no one wants to stand by or even make a stumbling block from it!
Anyway, he couldn't remember the names of Mu Sen and Tie Shan, and Gu Lin Mangyu said with a word like gold: "Okay! ”
Master Zongzheng shouted "yes", who dared to say "no"? As a result, the list of fights is completely finalized.
Princess Mei Xin dressed in a full dress, got up elegantly, and looked at Huo Xu with a pair of bright eyes.
Looking forward to it, she laughed softly: "Mr. Moss, Your Excellency Zongzheng, there is something that must be clarified in advance. As for the fight in a month's time, why not use points to determine the winner?
I have a third-stage Yuanshi on our side, I wonder who you plan to send to fight him? Our opinion is that the winner of this battle will earn two points, and the winner of the remaining two fights will earn one point each. ”
Hearing this, Moss immediately threw a meaningful look at Gu Lin Haobo.
Winning or losing by points?
If Huo Xu can cause another upset and defeat that third-stage Yuanshi, wouldn't the Yuan Young Team of the Five Clans Alliance at least be able to draw with the other party?
What a tempting proposition!
