Chapter 370: Collusion

The four major families of Chiba City are located at the top of the pyramid of power, and they have always been high, and they have never had to worry about breaking their foundation and inheritance, but the families affiliated to them cannot but take pains for the continuation of the family. These small and medium-sized families have been dependent on the four major families for hundreds of years, and while supporting the four major families, they have also successfully maintained their own status.

However, as the saying goes, things have a boom and fall, and things must be reversed, and with the slow passage of time, these families will eventually show signs of decline, and the lucky ones among them can continue to pass on, while more will suffer inevitable destruction.

No family leader would be willing to sit idly by and watch this happen, and after hundreds of years of experience, it has been basically confirmed that the rise and fall of the family is linked to the number of talents, and even the head of the family, who is too stupid to understand how it works, will implement this policy in accordance with the instructions of his ancestors.

However, most of the good seedlings with outstanding potential were unceremoniously absorbed by the four major families, and those cultivating geniuses, as people who were watched and had high hopes, were also very aware of the benefits of climbing the high branches of the four major families, so the two hit it off, making the already unattainable four major families grow stronger and stronger.

The theorem that things must decay never seems to happen in the four families.

And the affiliated families that absorb inferior talents like drinking soup dregs will be much more cautious when it comes to the survival and development of the family, and they are afraid that the glory of the family will be easily cut off if they are not careful. Therefore, they value the potential of the young monks more than the strength of the monks themselves.

Because a monk who can achieve the Sevenfold Rank will never be inferior to those who are proud of the glory of the nobility, it is fundamentally difficult for them to submit to the subordinate families below the four major families.

Only by relying on the resources of the family to help those monks with outstanding potential but limited strength at this stage break through the realm, can they truly win the hearts of the people, and the lower the strength of the target person, the more outstanding the effect will be, after all, once the cultivation is too high, it will be difficult to cultivate loyalty, even if it is not arrogant, it will not be the kind of person who is willing to be driven.

On the other hand, unless it is the kind of real white-eyed wolf, otherwise, generally speaking, a genius monk who has never met a talent will not be indifferent to the grace of others after all.

This is also one of the reasons why the three middle-aged trial officers present are here to monitor and investigate, they are all from the subsidiary families of the four major families, on the one hand, they dare not neglect the tasks assigned by the four major families, and on the other hand, more importantly, take the opportunity of this occasion to help their families absorb the original stones that have not yet shone.

Although he knew that the most outstanding group of geniuses would definitely not have anything to do with them, he also knew very well that no matter how powerful the four major families were, they would not be enough to accommodate all the cultivators, so the group of people who were selected for the rest also had quite outstanding qualifications, and they were by no means ordinary people.

Not seeking the supreme genius of the cultivator, but seeking someone who can support the fate of the family, this is the answer found by those affiliated families. The Moon Art Banquet, an occasion where trials are real in the name of banquets, is naturally an opportunity for them to select cultivation seedlings, and the three of them, as trial officers, can observe and analyze the combat power and potential of the participants at the first time, that is, they can lock on to the target more quickly than other families.

Therefore, the position of trial officer seems to be of little benefit, but it makes the elders of the major families rush to it, and they rack their brains for these three places every year, and secretly fight many times before they can be able to distinguish the winner from the loser.

The three middle-aged people present were all winners of this session.

And being able to win the three fiercely competitive trial officer seats in the face of strong enemies, in addition to the strength of his own family should not be underestimated, he is naturally indispensable to the assistance of equally powerful allies.

This is not surprising. A family that can continue to develop needs to know how to infuse new blood to maintain the vitality of the family on the one hand, and on the other hand, it also needs to find a strong partner suitable for the alliance.

Leng Feng Zhai, as a large business that can rank among the top ten in Dongcheng District, there is no doubt that it is definitely difficult to refuse the cooperation object for these affiliated families.

However, when it comes to the issue of cooperation, the exchange of interests between each side is indispensable, ranging from mutual communication to joint efforts to suppress strong enemies, all of which are part of the mutually beneficial cooperation link.

Ye Wen's impression of Leng Feng Zhai only relied on hearsay, but he never faced the real offensive launched by this level of power, although he had a relative understanding of its powerful and arrogant side, but after all, it stayed at the conceptual level.

Otherwise, the moment he stepped into the first level of the trial and saw the frost snake bear, he should be able to judge the strangeness of it, as a trial level at the beginning, the opponent is really a little unreasonable, because this kind of trial is for the selection of talents, not an activity for the purpose of taking the lives of the participants.

"It's ugly and dirty...... However, this is the true face of our dead and unfrozen family!"

The trial officer on the right sat silently in his chair, looking at the corner of the huge mirror in front of him, which reflected the image of a young man fighting hard but in trouble, shaking his head and sighing twice in his heart.

"Hehe, this kind of thing is not the first time, and it will definitely not be the last, I obviously won't stop it, no matter how sentimental it is, it's just a hypocritical feeling, and it's useless to think about it. ”

The trial officer's eyes showed a hint of remembrance, remembering the enthusiasm of his youth, full of thought that there must be so-called justice in the world, but he did not expect to return to the rotten family in the end, becoming a rotten wood in the quagmire, and then smiled self-deprecatingly.

At this moment, the door of the side hall opened silently on both sides, and a footstep sounded faintly, almost like the sound of fallen leaves falling to the ground.

The moment they crossed the threshold, the faces of the three middle-aged trial officers changed, and they almost got up at the same time to look at the door of the hall, because the people who could open the ban and enter the hall at will like this would only be far above them in terms of status.

The moment that figure came into view, there was a hint of surprise in their eyes, because the person who came was the Fan family elder who had rarely interfered in trial matters.

"I've seen Master Fan!"

Although they were extremely puzzled in their hearts, the three trial officers immediately bowed respectfully to each other, not daring to be the slightest slack in etiquette, although the three of them were not affiliated with the Fan family, they would not be stupid enough to think that they could ignore the authority of the other party in this way, due to the huge gap in status and status, they were even more subconsciously worried about whether they had violated the rules, and the eyes of the elders of the Fan family invariably showed a trace of uneasiness.

"Sit down, you go on, I'll take a look at it. ”

The old man surnamed Fan was expressionless, waved his hand casually, and then stood aside with his hands and looked at the picture in the huge mirror with his hands.

"Yes!"

The three of them looked at each other, but they didn't dare to ask directly, and after hesitating for a moment, they sat down again trembling and frightened, but they couldn't figure out the purpose of this high-ranking old man coming here, and for a while they only felt like they were sitting on pins and needles.
