Chapter 778 – Showing Your Face
But even if that was the case, these martial artists who had mastered the primal power would have their strength drastically increased from before.
Half a month passed by in a flash, Xu Yang gave these soldiers training during the day, and as soon as night came, he was willing to walk around a bit, wanting to check if he could come across any members of his team.
However, for nearly three weeks in a row, there was no gain, Xu Yang almost turned the entire county and a few nearby castles all over again, and did not find any trace of a team member at all.
But Xu Yang is not angry, this is only expected, after all, their team of those people, no matter where they are, will certainly use the shortest possible time to fight some fame.
Therefore, it was only a matter of time before they got together, and Xu Yang wouldn’t be worried that he would miss out with everyone in his team.
A month later, Xu Yang started a martial arts competition between these three hundred internal elites, selecting ten of the strongest among them, and managing these three hundred people in a hierarchical system.
Each of the ten captain-level powerhouses had the top-notch combat power of a single warrior, and the most powerful ones among them had even reached the level of three simultaneous qi whirlwinds in only a month’s time.
So, there was definitely no way to compare such talent with Xu Yang, but when placed in the Primordial Continent’s system, it was definitely considered an outstanding talent.
”Very well, after a month of diligent cultivation, each of you has made great strides in strength, so next I will lead you out on a mission, on the one hand, to experience your practical combat abilities, on the other hand, it is also considered to be opening up a path for our next development.”
A few of the ten captains each looked at each other and couldn’t help but open their mouths to inquire.
”My lord, is the target of our attack the Outer County City?”
Xu Yang shook his head with a light smile, “Have you all forgotten what I said?
The initial development stage must start with this Changle County of ours.
If you haven’t even taken care of this base camp, even if you go outside and fight as hot as you can, what will you do?”
”But my lord, amongst the county, those guys from the Law Enforcement Hall are watching very closely, there’s no need for us to get into a direct conflict with them so early, right?”
Xu Yang shook his head with a bitter smile, “Recently, there’s been a lot of buzz about the Big 5 Martial Arts Hall meeting!
Although the Evolving Martial Halls have long had a rule that they would not include disciples from the Law Enforcement Halls, such a rule does not place any restrictions on you.
After all, in terms of status, you are merely guards of the Duke, but do not belong to the Law Enforcement Hall.
Thus, each and every one of you is qualified to participate in this tournament.
What’s more, I will personally be there, so you don’t need to worry about any mishaps, with me here, the champion of this Martial Arts Hall will definitely belong to us!
What I want, on the other hand, is to use this opportunity to form an influence amongst the jianghu forces, to be able to recruit some of the top jianghu powerhouses into our calling as much as possible!”
After understanding Xu Yang’s motives, everyone nodded with grave expressions.
Three days later, Xu Yang brought thirty of his elites to head to participate in the competition in the Hall of Martial Arts.
The so-called Performing Martial Hall was actually the assembly of the scattered cultivator forces that were opposed to the Law Protector Hall amongst this county unified by Yun San.
These people neither belonged to the Law Enforcement Hall nor the Dudu government office, and were idle and unrestrained.
And these people’s strength was also very good.
Xu Yang had valued this group of forces since long ago, and if he could unite them together, he would certainly be able to form a not-so-small battle force.
As expected, after Xu Yang arrived with these dozens of elites, the scene was already crowded with people.
It was worth mentioning that the Third Elder amongst the four elders of the Law Enforcement Hall was also invited to the scene as a guest of honor, and happened to be sitting right next to the Third Governor of Yun.
”Third Master, this time is a competition between the martial arts halls, our Law Enforcement Hall is not qualified to participate, I wonder if those personal guards under your command have some good hands of the power faction to participate in the battle?”
Yun San nodded with a light smile, while nodding towards where Xu Yang’s dozens of people were, “It’s just a few of them.”
”Oh?
The one at the head is a new face, how come I’ve never seen him before?”
The Third Master didn’t avoid anything, he was well aware of Xu Yang’s strength, there was no need to fear any of this, and directly opened up about his identity.
”This person is the Chief Steward Ah Yang whom I have recently recruited to my command, I have nothing to do during the weekdays, so I let him bring people over for entertainment.”
The Third Elder grinned on his face, but his eyes were always beating on Xu Yang’s body, in fact, he had come for no other reason than to see the distribution of the top powerhouses amongst these reckless rivers and lakes.
After all, the biggest role of the Law Enforcement Hall is to check and balance, on the one hand, suppress the organization of the Governor’s group of forces, on the other hand, to deter these reckless rivers and lakes, scattered cultivators.
This time, Xu Yang brought people is to establish the authority, he wanted to let everyone know, not only the Governor Yamen this side has a strong enough manpower strength, but also to let those jianghu reckless people can find a real can settle down home.
”The first round of drawing lots er finished, please corresponding number of players on the field to fight.”
As soon as the host’s voice fell, Xu Yang’s number three was just called on top of the number one battle platform, while the guy in front of him was a small old man with a very thin figure, wearing a long shirt that didn’t match his size, smiling playfully and hooking his hand at Xu Yang.
”Old man, don’t come out and walk around when you’re this old, it’s better to retire at home without fear.”
As soon as Xu Yang’s words fell, he lightly waved his hand in this light manner, and even the vast majority of people did not see his specific movements, they saw this old man being blasted directly out of the stage by a very powerful aura.
”My God!
What exactly is this kid’s origin, he actually possesses such a powerful force!”
”What exactly is the gongfu path he is using?
I don’t see him move or throw a punch, yet he is able to erupt with such a strong aura!”
Unbeknownst to him, this move appeared, and even more so, it caused the Third Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall and a bunch of other bigwigs under the arena to be taken aback.
”I say Third Master, this Chief Steward of yours seems to be a bit unusual which, his strength is so powerful, are you clear about his origin?”
Third Master smiled and nodded, “He was not originally from our Northern Domain, he is a casual cultivator from the Western Domain who has been practicing hard for three hundred years, and is also a Qi Practitioner, quite talented.”
The Third Elder was immediately moved, “Such a powerful talent, I wonder if Third Master has the heart to transfer him under my Law Enforcement Hall?
I believe that the Head Lord will definitely be greatly appreciative of you, Third Master.”
Yun San of course knew very well what this Third Zhang Lao was playing at, there was no way that he would follow his heart’s desire, not to mention that he already knew Xu Yang’s true identity, even if it cost him his life, he would definitely not transfer his ultimate bottom card of wish fulfillment so easily.
”Third Elder is one step too late, I have already sworn brotherhood with Ah Yang as a heterosexual brother, and now he is just like my younger brother, how can I allow to send my own family members elsewhere, I ask for Third Elder’s understanding.”
The Third Abbot Elder turned his eyebrows and laughed, obediently is this step no longer continue to dwell on anything.
Unbeknownst to him, he already had his own calculations in mind.
Xu Yang what strength, this so lightly a few actions, will successively defeat a dozen strong enemy, easily walked to the final circle, and he brought those thirty elite, almost all also obtained the qualification of the final circle.
Unbeknownst to him, the strength that Xu Yang’s team had demonstrated in this battle had also been seen in the eyes of those respected jianghu seniors under the arena, especially the leaders of several major jianghu forces, who were all keenly interested in the astonishing Xu Yang and these top-level powerhouses of the Dudu government office under his command.
