But Chen Xiao and Xu Qinglei did not care about what the people said, in their eyes, these people were just clowns.
As both of them were martial arts grandmasters, they naturally had this temperament, but Qing Ling was a young lady, so she did not have such good self-control. She looked displeased, and opened her mouth hatefully: "These people are truly snobbish people, when my Qinglei Martial Arts School was in her good times, they were trying to curry favor with us, but now they are slandering us like this."
Hearing his daughter's indignant words, Xu Qinglei laughed helplessly, and immediately bowed to Chen Xiao: "I'll leave everything to Mr. Xiao Chen."
There was a rule in Sky Dragon City, in order to protect the stability of the powers in the city, all martial arts schools that were part of first-rate powers could not be attacked, otherwise, they would be suppressed by the many forces. All these years, although all the martial arts world had gone downhill, they had not been attacked because of this rule.
But this time, if Qinglei Martial Arts School fell out of the circle of the first-rate powers in the Sky Dragon City, without the protection of the rules of the city, she would definitely be attacked by the people who hated him before. Although a skinny camel was bigger than a horse, when those people joined forces, the terrifying energy that they were able to mobilize could very well pinch Qinglei Martial Arts School to death.
So this time, Xu Qinglei was really placing his life and death on Chen Xiao.
Facing Xu Qinglei's solemn request, Chen Xiao also nodded his head lightly, he did not say much, but his heart was filled with confidence.
After all, with his current strength, as long as he did not go head to head with any experts from the 5-Star Martial Ancestor s and above, he would be absolutely safe. As for the upcoming examination, Xu Qinglei had also said before, that his opponent would at most be at the peak of the 2-Star Martial Ancestor, so it was nothing to worry about.
Time passed minute by minute, and very quickly, there were more and more observers gathered at the center of the plaza. All of them were here to watch the competition between the first-rate powers in Sky Dragon City, of course, other than these, there were also some major powers who had sent people over.
"The people from the Zhao Family have arrived!"
Very quickly, someone exclaimed. A group of people slowly walked towards Xu Qinglei from the crowd that had parted automatically, led by a middle-aged man whose body was brimming with vitality. Clearly, he had entered the realm of Tristar Martial Ancestor.
"Brother Xu, how have you been?"
The moment the Zhao Family Patriarch arrived, he immediately rushed towards Xu Qinglei. Even though his words were filled with concern, his tone of voice contained a bit of ridicule that was not hidden.
Seeing the Zhao Family Patriarch, Xu Qinglei's face did not look too good, and immediately said indifferently: "Thank you Zhao Family Head for your concern, I think I can handle this old man Xu."
The two of them exchanged a few pleasantries, and then separated. After the group left, Xu Qinglei introduced the Zhao Family to Chen Xiao: "This Zhao Family, is one of the top powerhouses of the Sky Dragon City, both of us have our own conflicts, I'm afraid during the battle, these people will not hold back."
Chen Xiao only glanced at them, and did not continue to pay attention to them. Not to mention the fact that the Zhao Family did not send the highest level of fighting strength, even if the Patriarch of the Zhao Family came himself, Chen Xiao was confident that he could defeat him within three moves.
After a while, the leaders of the Jade Spirit Gang and Blood Wolf Sect had also brought their teams to the plaza.
When everyone had arrived, an old man finally stood in the middle and said: "Alright, today is the big day of the Qinglei Martial Arts School's assessment competition. If you want to maintain the position of a first-rate power, you need to clear the Zhao Family, Blood Wolf Sect, and Jade Spirit Sect, as well as the warriors sent by the three first-rate powers, to all be able to pass the examination."
While the old man was speaking, the three forces below the stage looked at Xu Qinglei's weak appearance and sneered.
Within the circle of first-rate powers, there were countless resources competing with territories. In this kind of situation, the three families naturally hoped that the Qinglei Martial Arts School would fall, so that they would have one less competitor to share more of the resources.
As for the news that Xu Qinglei had received heavy injuries, they had all heard of it before, and now, they were even more convinced that this time, the Qinglei Martial Arts School was going to fall. Back then, the reason the Qinglei Martial Arts School was able to grow stronger step by step until he reached such a stage was all thanks to Xu Qinglei's power.
But after waiting for them to celebrate, Xu Qinglei stood up, he walked towards the old man and spoke: "I am not well this time, and am unable to take the challenge. Today, someone else is taking the test for Qinglei Martial Arts School."
His words immediately caused quite a few people to be in an uproar, and even the hearts of the leaders of the three families jumped.
This old thing really got him external help?
The leaders of the three great forces looked at each other, they could see the uneasiness in each other's eyes. If they were to be invited for a strong helper, it was likely that they would be able to keep the position of one of the top powers in Sky Dragon City and extend their lives.
The thoughts of the leaders of the three families kept flowing, but on the high platform, Xu Qinglei's speech still continued, "The one who will represent me in the examination competition this time is this Mr. Xiao Chen."
As he said that, he pointed towards Chen Xiao's direction. Immediately, everyone's gazes landed on Chen Xiao.
When they saw Chen Xiao's appearance, they were all stunned.
"A fresh face. He's so young, how could he possibly be a powerful martial arts grandmaster? Could it be that Head Xu lost his head from anxiety and fell for a doctor in such a desperate situation?"
"With his weak and frail appearance? You can even pass the three great families' assessment battles? "
When Xu Qinglei pointed to Chen Xiao, everyone started to question him. After all, Chen Xiao was too young, only eighteen or nineteen years old. If he was considered a grandmaster in martial arts, then it would be too unconvincing.
However, when the leaders of the three families saw Chen Xiao's current state, they felt more at ease.
What they were afraid of was that Xu Qinglei had used his huge network of people and really found some experts who were willing to help him. At that time, it would not be easy for them to kick Qinglei Martial Arts School out.
As for Chen Xiao's words, it was not because the people of the three families looked down on Chen Xiao. No matter how they looked at it, Chen Xiao did not seem like a powerful warrior that was worthy of attention.
"Old demon Xu, this is your last resort. It looks like Qinglei Martial Arts School will really be destroyed this time." Zhao Family Head shook his head and laughed, showing that he had won.
As for the Patriarch of the Blood Wolf Sect and the Jade Spirit Sect, both of them looked like they were waiting to see a good show. It was clear that they all thought that Xu Qinglei's decision to push Chen Xiao out of the sect was an urgent one for treatment.
Facing all of these people's questioning and looks of contempt, Chen Xiao did not bother with them at all, and only waited quietly for the battle to begin.
