Chapter 2 Bullying you as a young boy to be poor
“patriarch.”
“The status of the guard general is respected, and all the county guards must respect him. As a disciple of the martial arts academy who has not reached the sixth level of martial arts master, I am not qualified to see him. How can I provoke him? "Wu Yuan asked back.
Wu Qiming stared at Wu Yuan, trying to see some clues in Wu Yuan's eyes..
Unfortunately, all he could see was peace.
“Then why did General Xu suddenly invite me to a banquet tonight? And you told me to take you with me? "Why did Wu Qiming arrive?".
Wu Yuan suddenly understood.
The four giants of Licheng County are the County Sheriff, the County Magistrate, the County Lieutenant, and the Guarding General..
The first three, headed by the county guard, control the power of leaving the city. The guard general seems unable to interfere in local affairs, but the absolute force possessed by the commander of the 600 Nanmeng Army makes the county guard unwilling to conflict with him..
When such a big shot holds a private banquet, he usually only invites the top ten top families from Licheng..
Wu family? Not even one of the top 100 families！
Naturally, Wu Qiming thought that Wu Yuan had offended the guarding general. Otherwise, how could he be suddenly invited?？
“Patriarch, if you insist on getting me involved with General Xu, it is nothing more than a big fight between me and Xu Yuanhan..." Wu Yuan spoke calmly, and quickly told his grievances with Xu Yuanhan.’.
In fact, there is no "grievance" between the two, and they have rarely crossed paths in the past..
but.
There is only one quota for each county martial arts academy to enter the Yunwu Palace per year.！
This is a battle of interests.
“Yunwu Palace? First place in the competition? "Wu Qiming is so shrewd in being able to secure his position as patriarch. He figured out the cause and effect in a single thought..
With the ability of the guard general, it was easy for him to send his son to the Hengyun Sect.！
But how can ordinary sect disciples be compared with the 'Yunwu Palace disciples'?？
As the top martial arts school in the sect, Yunwu Hall disciples can get ten times more resources and martial arts secrets than ordinary disciples..
“Wu Yuan, you will come with me to the banquet later. No matter what happens, don't act without my instructions." Wu Qiming said in a low voice: "You understand.？”
“Patriarch, I know." Wu Yuan smiled and said: "I can't afford to offend the guard general. Our Wu family can't afford to offend him. For my mother and sister, and for the family, no matter how big the grievance is, I will endure it..”
Guarding general? If he was at his peak in his previous life, how would Wu Yuan care?！
only.
The situation is stronger than the person. No matter how good Wu Yuan's martial arts skills are, he can't overcome the dozens of times of physical strength gap and defeat the fourth-level master..
Therefore, when you are not strong enough, you should endure it..
What's more, Wu Yuan must worry about the safety of his relatives.
“Wu Yuan, you don’t have to worry too much. There are many things involved in the martial arts competition, and General Xu may not dare to intervene." Wu Qiming said softly: "Inviting us to the banquet may be for other matters..”
Wu Yuan nodded without retorting..
Other things？
The possibility is too small！
“Let's go, don't arrive too late." Wu Qiming motioned to the coachman not far away and slowly drove the carriage to him..
call！
Wu Yuan tiptoed and jumped into the carriage..
With a trace of worry on his face, Wu Qiming climbed onto the carriage step by step along the stool. As the leader of the clan, he had to maintain the proper manners..
……
Xu Mansion, magnificent and brightly lit.
As a lower-status guest, Wu Qiming consciously took Wu Yuan to arrive early, and there was no difficulty as expected. The butler of Xu Mansion politely introduced them to the last table, served tea and cakes.
As time passed, guests came and went like clouds, and important people who were rarely seen in Licheng arrived one after another..
at last.
Even the county guards and county magistrates came, and General Xu also came out to greet them personally..
This banquet allowed Wu Yuan to truly see the level of the 'upper class' in this world..
There are too many dance songs to choose from, and the singer is seductive but not charming..
A variety of delicacies that are rarely seen on the streets are also constantly on offer.
Such a luxurious and lavish banquet made even the patriarch Wu Qiming feel a little restrained. It was beyond his imagination. Even the annual celebration of the head of the Wu family was not as good as today..
However, Wu Yuan didn’t care much.
The further he went, the more drowsy Wu Yuan became, because in his previous life he had seen dance music that was a hundred times more exquisite and participated in banquets that were ten times more luxurious..
“This world is far superior to the ancient dynasties. This is just a county and a city with a population of millions. However, no matter how luxurious and vast it is, it may not be able to withstand the super network celebration formed through the 'Yuan Universe'." Wu Yuan looked on coldly..
The song ends and everyone disperses.
The banquet lasted until night. Wu Yuan and Wu Qiming finally received a separate invitation from the butler and went to the side hall to talk..
Both of them understood that they were coming！
The Xu Mansion covers an area of dozens of acres. There are rockery corridors, waterside pavilions and pavilions around the mansion. But the deeper you go, the simpler the decorations are, and the more solemn the feeling of a military formation..
“Patriarch Wu, Mr. Wu, please come this way." The gentle-faced 'Butler Xu' wearing a purple robe led the two of them..
Enter the side hall.
Different from the hustle and bustle in the front hall, it is quite quiet here. "Wu Qiming, meet General Xu and meet Dean Zhang." Wu Qiming first saluted respectfully, then stood up and bowed slightly..
Wu Yuan acted accordingly.
The only thing that surprised Wu Yuan was that the dean of the martial arts academy was also here..
“Patriarch Wu, you are very polite. Please sit down..”
General Xu's voice is like a bell, his figure is burly, and his face is 80% similar to Xu Yuanhan's..
Although he was wearing regular clothes, Wu Yuan felt that invisible energy was like a ferocious beast, more terrifying than Zhang Da, the dean of the martial arts academy beside him.！
Hengyun Zonglu: Only fourth-grade warriors and above can serve as the garrison general of a county or town..
Thirteen states in Middle-earth, ninth level of martial arts！
Rank 9, 8, and 7 are collectively referred to as 'warriors'. Ordinary people can reach this level by tempering their muscles and bones..
The sixth grade can be called a martial artist, which is considered to have truly entered the door of martial arts..
Reaching the fifth level means entering the mainstream. Looking at any place in the world, one can be called a 'master of the mainstream'’！
As for the fourth-grade warrior？
“When I was at my peak in my previous life, I was probably not even as good as General Xu in terms of pure physical fitness." This thought flashed through Wu Yuan's mind..
Physically, humans in Middle-earth are much stronger. Adult men can easily weigh a thousand pounds..
“I have always heard that the martial arts academy has a martial arts genius who has 'enlightened' this year, and today I finally got to see him." General Xu smiled, and his eyes fell on Wu Yuan..
“In front of the general, you don't dare to call yourself a genius." Wu Qiming continued..
“Brother Wu, there is no need to be modest. Among the martial arts disciples I have seen over the years, Wu Yuan ranks at the top." Zhang Da, an old man in black robes beside him, said with a smile..
“It was Dean Zhang who taught me well." Wu Qiming said.
“The master brings you in. Cultivation depends on the individual. Without Wu Yuan’s own efforts, I wouldn’t be able to teach him even if he wanted to.” Dean Zhang said with a smile..
Wu Qiming became more and more confused as he listened..
It is a fact that Wu Yuan’s talent in martial arts is dazzling, especially in the past month or so, the speed of improvement is simply terrifying..
However, no matter how high the talent or strength is, he has never reached the level of a sixth-grade martial artist. He is far from worthy of being praised by the dignified guard general and the dean of the martial arts academy.！
Notice.
These two are both true martial arts experts.！
“General Xu, Dean Zhang." Wu Qiming said with a slightly flattering smile: "I'm afraid Wu Yuan and I are called here this time because there is something important, so feel free to tell us..”
He asked straight to the point.
“Okay, then I will tell you the truth." Dean Zhang said with a hint of solemnity on his face: "This year's martial arts competition is about to be held. With Wu Yuan's strength, there is a great hope to win the first place and then be promoted to the Yunwu Palace to practice..”
“However, if you enter Yunwu Palace now, you will only be an ordinary disciple..”
“Next year will be the 300th anniversary of the establishment of our 'Hengyun Sect', which is extremely important to the sect..”
“Therefore, I discussed with General Xu and the county governor, hoping that Wu Yuan could give up this year's competition and practice at the Junzong Martial Academy for one more year! A year from now, your strength will definitely be stronger than now, and you are fully expected to compete for the 'No. 1 of the Four Prefectures' in the competition among the counties. By then, entering the Yunwu Hall with the top spot will be the glory of the entire city! You will also get more cultivation resources, which is quite suitable for you." Dean Zhang's attitude is sincere..
The top disciples in the martial arts competitions from various places will compete again after entering the 'Yunwu Hall', which is called the 'competition between counties'’.
The so-called Four Prefectures refer to the four prefectures that Hengyun Sect once commanded..
Winning the first place means that the most outstanding disciples recruited by Yunwu Hall in a year will naturally attract much attention, and it is also the sect's 300th anniversary..
Dean Zhang’s words are high-sounding.
But how could Wu Qiming and Wu Yuan not understand the deeper meaning?？
Hengyun Clan Law: Those over sixteen are not allowed to enter the Yunwu Hall.
And Xu Yuanhan is already fifteen years old this year.
If it was really just for Wu Yuan's benefit, why invite the two of them to the Xu Mansion for the banquet? Why does the guarding general need to show up? It should be noted that according to law, the general's office cannot interfere in the affairs of the martial arts academy..
All this is just to use the power of the banquet to make Wu Qiming and Wu Yuan feel in awe and dare not refuse easily..
“Dean Zhang.”
Wu Qiming gritted his teeth and lowered his head and said: "It's not that Wu Yuan doesn't want to bring glory to the martial arts academy, but his family is from a poor family, and I, the Wu family, are also from a small family, and it is difficult to fully support them. Without external resources, even if I practice in the martial arts academy for a year, it will be difficult. To compete for the first place in the four palaces, it is better to enter the Yunwu Palace this year. When I grow up in the future, I will also be the glory of leaving the city..”
Wu Yuan looked at Wu Qiming in shock. The patriarch had the courage to refuse.？
“You do not trust me? "Zhang Da's eyes narrowed slightly and his breath changed slightly..
There were faint drops of sweat on Wu Qiming's forehead, and he felt as if a tiger was staring at him..
“It’s not that I don’t believe it, it’s just that if I don’t advance in my martial arts practice, I will retreat. Entering the Yunwu Palace a year later will have a great impact on Wu Yuan.” Wu Qiming was heartbroken..
He knew he would be in big trouble if he refused.
But in his heart, Wu Yuan's future is more important！
“Xu admires the Wu clan leader for his far-reaching plans for Wu Yuan." General Xu spoke with a gentle voice: "However, Wu Yuan is trying to bring glory to Li City, and everyone in Li City will not ignore Wu Yuan's efforts and will give five thousand taels of silver as a gift. To provide Wu Yuan with what he needs for his cultivation this year..”
As he spoke, General Xu glanced aside.
“Crunch~" The side door opened, and a servant respectfully presented a large stack of banknotes. Each banknote was marked "One Hundred Liang", and the word "Stars" was marked on the corner to prevent counterfeiting..
Five thousand taels? Wu Qiming's breath suffocated！
Wu Yuan's eyes also moved slightly..
If the Wu family's houses in Licheng were to be combined together, they would have to sell off their property if they wanted to raise such a huge sum of money..
This is a huge sum of money！
“Wu Yuan, are you willing? "General Xu looked directly at Wu Yuan.
