121 Giving the Rewards
“I’m afraid that the situation in Fenshan City is more serious than what my intelligence says.”
At the mention of this, the dojo masters finally came back to their senses.
“We’ll discuss this when we return to the city!”
The dojo masters did not stay any longer. Except for those disciples who had been eliminated, they rushed to Pingnan City without stopping.
!!There was no room for delay in the matters of demons.
“You little brat. You little brat…”
Sun Yuanshan, Qin Huai, and the others were walking at the back. The eighty-year-old man was grinning from ear to ear.
“Tell me the truth, how strong are you now? It can’t be that you’re willing to exchange one for one with this old man, right?” Sun Yuanshan stroked his beard and sneered.
“Isn’t Master invincible in the sixth refinement? How can I be your match?” Qin Huai also joked. Now, as he had promised, he had won first place for the dojo, so he was in a good mood.
“It’s true that I’m invincible at the sixth refinement, but you haven’t, have you? What if you cross the border?” Sun Yuanshan was worried that Qin Huai would cross the border to kill him.
He didn’t have any grudges in his heart. Instead, he was looking forward to it. It would be best if this disciple could crush him with one hand. If that happens, he would laugh even more happily.
Fang Han was both happy and depressed. It was a big blow.
Qi Yangbing, on the other hand, still had that warm smile on his face. “Just as I’ve expected, Junior Brother’s talent is on par with Reihom’s.”
…
“Master, I broke my promise.” Beside Bai Bashan, Reihom spoke slowly.
“It’s fine, as long as you’re here. It’s just a temporary failure. With your talent, you’re destined to not only stay in this small city in the future, but go even beyond Lingjiang…” Bai Bashan patted Reihom’s shoulder.
Ever since Bai Yusheng’s death, his voice had become more gentle. “I’m not capable. I’ve been trapped in this small city for my entire life. I’ve never seen the Great You capital.
“I’m counting on you. In the future, bring back a pot of wine from the capital for your master and let the name of the rumbling thunder skill shock the ears of those influential people in the capital.”
Reihom didn’t say anything this time. He just quietly listened, remembering it in his heart.
…
The group quickly entered the city, then gathered in the city lord’s mansion.
Hu Guanpan, the masters of the eight dojos, in addition to Qin Huai, Reihom, and Hu Jingshan, the true top elites of Pingnan, were all gathered together.
“The most important thing today is to choose the locations of each dojo.” Hu Guanpan raised his head and looked at Sun Yuanshan.
Sun Yuanshan stroked his beard and looked at Qin Huai, who was beside him. “Kid, what do you think?”
“The entrance to Pine Peak!” Qin Huai blurted out.
Sun Yuanshan nodded with relief. “Huai’er and I have the same thoughts.”
“Tsk, two poisonous embryos.” Bao Ziyan spat.
As for how the other dojos would choose their seats, the seven dojos had already discussed it several times in private.
Everyone had the same thought about Sun Yuanshan’s base. It’s this free-of-danger entrance of Pine Peak.
This was because there was a resonance at the mouth of Pine Peak, called the air-supplying vent. If the demons came, they would definitely go against the wind.
Moreover, there were many thistles and thorns here. Although they were not poisonous, they were extremely sharp and could cut through the skin.
It was the most suitable for the two poison kings of Pingnan.
The land selection was progressing smoothly. The three thousand iron-armored soldiers of the city lord’s mansion guarded Pingnan avenue, while the remaining seven dojos were stationed at the positions that had been previously discussed. So, all in all, it was very harmonious.
“Next, I will give a prize to the winner of the grand martial arts competition, Qin Huai, a disciple of the Changshan Dojo.” Hu Guanpan chuckled as he picked up the plates brought by the maidservants behind him.
“One emerald cloud pill from Emerald Cloud temple and one letter from the county governor.” Hu Guanpan carefully placed the box in Qin Huai’s hands, a pained look flashing through his eyes.
He had originally prepared these for his son. He wanted him to build momentum, establish prestige, and win over people’s hearts. He didn’t expect that all of it was for Qin Huai.
But fortunately, the Changshan Dojo and the city lord’s mansion were considered allies. He wouldn’t want to give it to anyone from the other seven dojos.
Hu Guanpan’s mood was complicated as he handed the last pure iron token to Qin Huai. The carved word “wolf” was filled with a murderous aura. The person who attacked must have an extraordinary realm.
“In the future, you will be the role model of the younger generation in Pingnan. You must be brave enough to be the first to kill demons! No matter where you go, don’t weaken the momentum of us Pingnan people!”
Hu Guanpan encouraged them, finally ending this reward ceremony.
“Everyone, with the sudden appearance of this fifth refinement great demon today, this is a situation that we will often face in the future.” Hu Guanpan looked at the crowd. “No matter what grudges you have before, I hope you can put it all behind you this time. Let’s cooperate with sincerity and get through this first!”
He cupped his fists at the masters of the eight dojos.
“Since the city lord has spoken, I naturally have nothing to say.”
“Pingnan is our foundation. We will not abandon it unless we have no other choice.” Bao Ziyan chuckled.
“Me too,” Sun Yuanshan said as he cupped his hands.
The dojo masters expressed their stance one by one, temporarily putting aside their grudges. Then, they all dispersed.
Qin Huai and Sun Yuanshan also bade farewell to the city lord.
Just as they reached the Drunken Immortal restaurant, a young lady in green robes blocked their path and said, “Young Master Qin, my family’s young miss wishes to meet you.”
“Who is she?” Qin Huai was puzzled.
This young lady in green robes had smooth skin, and her face was no less beautiful than the number one of the Drunken Immortal restaurant.
Also, the fabric on her body came from Lingjiang, but she was actually a servant? What was her background?
