On the twentieth day of the lunar month, Wang Ruoli returned to Jingyang City with Yu Lao, Fang Xiaomu and a cadre of guards.

Approaching the end of the year, Wang Tianyang became more and more busy, often gathering the heads and treasurers of the Wang family in the city to discuss matters, meeting with celebrities and dignitaries at all levels, and the managers of other gate valves, leaving early and returning late every day.

As he grew older and his cultivation deepened, unconsciously, Wang Ruoli gradually realized that the housekeepers, servants, and maidservants in the mansion seemed to have an extra layer of awe for themselves in addition to respecting the young master. Even the father's wife of several rooms talked to herself, and she seemed to be much more attentive, and she no longer looked at children like before.

Wang Ruoli saw his sister for the second time, Wang Ruobing, and the last time he saw her was when she was in infancy.

At this time, Wang Ruobing was already a little girl, she looked cute with ice and snow, and her big eyes were watery, as if she could drip water. Wang Ruobing will be seven years old after the New Year, and Wang Ruoli will be eighteen, which can be regarded as an adult.

On the 30th Chinese New Year's Eve, when Wang Tianyang returned, he was a little sullen.

Wang Ruoli couldn't help asking, "Father, what happened?"

"Hmph! The Xie family has a good calculation!" Wang Tianyang said in a toneless manner, "The Xie family wants to cultivate Xie Lingyun, which is understandable, but before this year has passed, they sent her to Jingxiang Xue Palace, which is a little too hasty!"

"Why should the father be angry, the child believes that the reason is determined!" Wang Ruoli didn't care, and comforted, "The Xie family's move will regret what they did in the future!"

"Li'er, if you have this heart, your father is also a little at ease!" Wang Tianyang was still a little unhappy in his heart, "Let's go, let's have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner!"

That night, Wang Tianyang's family gathered around the round table and ate the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in a friendly manner, and there was continuous laughter during the banquet.

Sister Wang Ruobing seems to be a little afraid of life, when she sees Wang Ruoli, she always dodges, just next to her mother's back, and timidly calls her brother a few times, but Wang Ruobing has fun with Fang Xiaomu.

Fang Xiaomu is eleven this year, and he looks like a young lady in front of Wang Ruobing. Seeing the two getting closer, Wang Ruo relaxed, hoping that Fang Xiaomu, who suddenly encountered a family change, could settle down in the Wang family and not have a hard childhood.

At the beginning of March, the weather was fine.

Although Jingxiang Country is located in the south and does not snow, there is still a sense of revival of everything and new sprouts everywhere.

Wang Ruoli followed Wang Tianyang and came to Jingdu City, the capital of Jingxiang Kingdom.

Speaking of which, this is Wang Ruoli's first time in Jingdu City.

As the capital of a country, Jingdu City is far from being comparable to other cities, with a grand scale and prosperity, and it is a well-deserved first city in Jingxiang Kingdom!

Although there are many pedestrians on the street, they are not disorderly, and from time to time there are groups of sergeants with swords and armor to patrol in formation, thinking that it should be the recent clan competition, which makes the children of various families pour into Jingdu, bringing a large number of foreign populations to Jingdu.

In addition to the upcoming clan competition conference of the Wang family, the Sima family and the Xie family, which are also the three major families, also held a clan comparison at this time.

For example, all the branches of the Wang family living in Liulin Town are the Liulin branches, and all the branches of the Wang family living in Jingyang City are the Jingyang branches, and the children of the Wang family living in Jingyang City, in addition to Wang Tianyang's family, there are other seven families, but Wang Tianyang is too popular and overshadows everyone, so when others mention the Jingyang Wang family, only Wang Tianyang thinks of Wang Tianyang. Therefore, the eight members of the Wang family who lived in Jingyang City like this were unified into the Jingyang branch during the clan competition.

Cumulatively, the number of branches participating in the clan competition conference has reached a total of 193.

As for the children of the Wang family who participated in the clan competition, they need to be 25 years old and below, Rao is so, and the children of the Wang family who signed up to participate in the clan competition conference test this time still reached more than 600 people.

Early the next morning, Wang Ruoli followed his father Yu Lao and others to the Wang family campus.

This large school field is more than 80 or 90 zhang longitudinal and horizontal, and there are stairs and high platforms built on all sides, and seats are set up on them for the purpose of observing the ceremony. On weekdays, the Wang family is mostly used to practice guards, gallop horse racing skills, and compete in battles.

But seeing the big school field at this time, the flags were waving around, and it seemed to be a hot scene.

Wang Ruoli and others sat on the seat of the lineage, and from time to time someone came over to say a few words to Wang Tianyang.

During this period, Wang Ruoli got to know his father's subordinates one by one, and the five good players he had recruited in recent years.

Two of them, I had already seen six years ago, the brave and middle-aged man named Ma Lin, and the bearded middle-aged man named Luo Qi, both of whom were in the Peiji period.

The other three are Yan Geng, Yang Shanhe, and Qi Gongwang. Yan Geng has a slender figure and a thin body, while Yang Shanhe is very rich, with a somewhat round face, and both of them are in the foundation building period. As for Qi Gongwang, he is an old man wearing a red robe and a flower beard on his chin, and he is cultivating in the foundation period.

Idle and bored, Wang Ruoli couldn't help but look around at the stands on all sides of the campus, only to see one after another, already full of people, there should be no less than 10,000 people.

Among them, there are two areas that are particularly eye-catching, one is the area of the main clan of the Wang family, on which are sitting, in addition to the children of the main clan headed by the head of the family, Wang Tianyan, there are also four energetic old men in black robes.

The other area is where the guests are seated. With the Wang family, the family lords, businessmen and wealthy families do not know how few, such a grand event, most of them come in person or send people, together with the accompanying guards, the total number of people exceeds 1,000.

Among them, an old man in gray at the head of the head is the main position, this old man's name is Zhang Quji, who is the left general of Jingxiang Guozuo, and was the descendant of the Jingxiang royal family. Next to Zhang Quji, there is a young woman in white clothes, graceful and luxurious, quiet and elegant, with her own elegant temperament, but I don't know who it is?

After a row of opening drums, the head of the family, Wang Tianyan, walked up to the high platform with a smile on his face, and said a large opening speech, as well as some words of encouragement, and finally said the most concerned thing for the young children - reward:

1st place: Brilliant Sword, Rank 9 Sword, 1 Delusion Breaking Elixir, 10,000 taels of silver.

2nd place: Remnant Sword, a seventh-level sword, a Yang Yan Spirit Rune, and 10,000 taels of silver.

No. 3: Liuyun Feather Sword, a fifth-level sword, three coins of thousand-year-old blood jade zhi, and five thousand taels of silver.

No. 4: Qingkou Sword, a fifth-level sword, a Ming Qixuan, and 5,000 taels of silver.

No. 5: Phoenix Fire Sword, a fifth-level sword, "Swimming", a sixth-level exercise, and five thousand taels of silver.

6~10 people: Hanying sword, fourth-level sword, "Fierce Ice Double Technique", fifth-level exercise, 2,000 taels of silver;

11~20 people: Chidi Sword, third-level sword, "Tiger Fist", fourth-level exercise, 1,000 taels of silver;

21~50 people: Meng Qi sword, second-level sword, "Guanwei Step", third-level exercise, five hundred taels of silver.

After listening to the list of prizes, Wang Ruoli found that most of them were not familiar with him, except for the silver, but Yu Lao on the side explained in detail in his ear, so that he knew it in his heart.

It turns out that weapons are also the same as exercises, and they are divided into nine levels according to the level of applicable cultivators, and the children of the Wang family are basically sword-making, so the prizes are all sword-based. Most of the swords with grades lower than level 5 are made in batches, so a number of commonly used sword genera have been formed. As for what the delusion-breaking elixir and the Yang Yan spirit rune were, Yu Lao didn't know.

Wang Ruoli looked at the reward at the top of the list, and sighed without sighing, this reward is clearly for Wang Ruoqing! The Wang family is the only one above the foundation building period under the age of 25, and it is also the foundation cultivation period, who can compete with her for the first place!

However, it can also be seen from this list of rewards that the high-level of the Wang family attaches great importance to the clan competition, and only the reward of the silver tattoo has invested as much as 70,000 taels.

After that, it was time for the Clan Contest to test.

The cultivation of the children of the families who sign up to participate is uneven, and only in the test link, the children who have reached the condensation stage and above are eligible to officially participate in the clan comparison, that is, the test needs to reach at least 100 qi power.

Such a restriction is of certain use, one is that the cultivation of Qi during the Qi training period is too low, and the possibility of breaking into the top fifty is very small; and the other is that most of the outstanding young children of the Wang family are in the Qi Condensation and Qi Cultivation Period, and if they participate in the Qi Training Period, they will be easily seriously injured or disabled due to the large gap in strength between the two sides.

In the large school field, there are ten test points, and the children of the Wang family can choose any one test point and line up for testing.

Wang Ruoli lined up in order, waiting for the test, but saw that the ten guard captains of the main clan were in charge of the test, and they all had cold faces, as if they were upright.

The one in front of Wang Ruoli was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, and when he saw him in the test, he hit 99 qi power, and his face turned yellow on the spot, crying and begging the monitoring captain to give him another chance, but unfortunately he was still wailing and was pulled out of the test point by the guards next to him.

Wang Ruoli couldn't help but chuckle at the corner of his mouth, the strength of the cultivator must be high and low, and it is impossible to be exactly the same every time, so the usual test of strength is repeated many times, and the highest one is taken as the result, but today is the screening of the qualifications for participation, and it is impossible to let it repeat the test many times.

Wang Ruoli used about three or four percent of his strength at will, and saw that the tester showed that the power of qi was 3456, this result made the captain of the guard in charge of the test greatly admired, and even the deacon who supervised the test link in the center of the university also turned his face to look at it, because of Wang Ruoli's test results, among the children of the Wang family who had been tested at this time, belonged to the top ten existences.

Wang Ruoli couldn't help but look at this unsightly deacon, this deacon's name is Lu Zan, he is a loyal fan of the old family lord Wang Yanlang, and he is also the only one who is not from the Wang family among the deacons in the twenty-three cities sent by the Wang family, and the test link of today's clan competition conference is entrusted to him to supervise, which shows that the Wang family has a fancy for him.

Wang Ruoli chose to retain his strength, in this case, most people will try their best to hide a certain strength and hole cards, maybe in the subsequent competition, can receive unexpected miraculous results.

Of course, those who are hovering on the test qualification line do not need to think about the question of whether to keep it or not.

In fact, Wang Ruoli never realized that his vision had already surpassed his peers too much, and the strong people he met even had the Nirvana Realm major cultivation of the third realm of cultivation, not to mention the Jingxiang King's family, which did not even have a spiritual realm powerhouse.

Wang Ruoli looked at the children of the Wang family who went to the test one by one, of different ages, some of them were even in their early tens, and couldn't help but laugh, this is too anxious, you can come back in the next two clan competitions!

However, after thinking about it, Wang Jiagui is one of the three major families in Jingxiang Kingdom, and among the children of the family, it is inevitable that there are arrogant and arrogant people, these children are usually small soil overlords in their respective towns, and they think they are so powerful, and now they are pulled by the elders of the family to the big school field, and they are ranked five or six hundred outside the family peers.

When Wang Ruo returned from the test, his father smiled and nodded, motioning for him to take a seat.

Sitting beside his father, looking at his father's resolute and persistent face, Wang Ruoli couldn't help but think a lot.

My father has been working hard for so many years, although he has never mentioned it, and he doesn't know what his goal is, but he knows that his father needs strength and prestige very much.

Although the swords rewarded by the top two in the clan competition made me very tempted, what I hoped more was that I could share some of it for my father, which could help my father!
