Chapter 170: The Genius Seeds of the Outer Cities Arrive

Other than the first two people, when a person came in, a person would go out. The Tough Realm cultivators waiting outside also quickly knew the judgment method inside.

“What can he find out in such a short time?”

“That’s right. The time is too short. How can the outcome be decided?”

“Besides, isn’t this unfair? Under a tag-team battle, won’t the people who enter later have an advantage?”

“That’s right. The further we go, the more severely that lord consumes his energy. It’s indeed too unfair.”

The few of them whispered.

At this moment, a person who had just come out and pa.s.sed by them could not help but stop and mock coldly, “Hehe, with your poor strength, what consumption can that lord have to deal with you? I think you should think about how to unleash your full strength!”

Just like that, one after another, after about two hours, there was almost no one at the door. All the eliminated Tough Realm cultivators left gloomily.

Lin Yan looked at the two people behind him in satisfaction. One was Xia Tang, and the other was called Ning Yueyi. She was a tall woman who was good at kicking.

“Alright, the two of you will wait for a moment. When the Strength Realm results are out, we’ll go to the Demon Suppression Division together.”

“Yes, my lord.”

Lin Yan left the two of them behind and turned to enter the large square in the courtyard. The Strength Realm selection there was also coming to an end and actual combat was underway.

Because there were too many people, the first round adopted a direct elimination system. A standard was set. If the strength and speed were not pa.s.sable, they would be eliminated directly. 80% of the people were eliminated at once.

The remaining people would be judged by their grades. Then, they would choose the ten people with the highest grades to undergo the actual combat selection.

Lin Yan watched for a moment. The Strength Realm cultivators were actually similar, and there was nothing special about them.

As he watched, his feet moved and he suddenly flashed into the arena, stopping the person who was attacking the enemy’s vital points.

“L-Lord?”

That person, who originally had a fierce expression, was so frightened that his face turned pale and he did not know what to do.

Lin Yan nodded at him. “The outcome has been decided. You win.”

He said to the other person, “You’ve lost. Leave.”

That person was still in shock. At that moment, he almost thought that he was really going to die. At this moment, he said gratefully, “Thank you, Sir!”

With that, he left dejectedly.

Lin Yan turned around and left. If he saw that the outcome was about to be decided, he would stop those who attacked too fiercely and might kill their opponent.

Soon, the four slots for the Strength Realm were selected.

Three men and one woman. After he asked for their names, they were Si Jinglun, Yao Feng, Fan Lu, and Yu Gu.

Lin Yan thanked Xie Lingyan’s senior brothers and sisters and handed them the generous rewards he had prepared.

Yu Qian, Song Tian, Jiao Liang, and Tao Chen also arrived. He found Xia Tang and Ning Yueyi.

Lin Yan brought a total of ten people and headed straight for the inner city.

Most unrelated people were no longer allowed to enter the inner city. Lin Yan handed over his waist token before bringing ten people in.

When they arrived at the entrance of the Demon Suppression Division, Lin Yan said, “Wait a moment. I’ll call you in later.”

With that, he entered and went to report the situation to Liu Lanqing.

The ten people outside the Demon Suppression Division heaved a sigh of relief and relaxed a little.

Xia Tang whispered to Ning Yueyi, who was beside him, “1 heard that the previous Dingdeng Genius Battles were extremely tragic and b.l.o.o.d.y. There were many casualties. We’re lucky this time. Not a single person died. Even in the actual combat of the Strength Realm, no one died.”

Ning Yueyi nodded. It was obvious that she did not like to talk.

Beside him, Jiao Liang added, “Then it’s all thanks to our Lord Lin’s benevolence that he chose the most peaceful method.”

Xia Tang took advantage of the situation and said, “May 1 ask your name? You were actually chosen in advance. Impressive!”

“My name is Jiao Liang. I was just lucky. Brother, what’s your name?”

“Xia Tang, nice to meet you.”

“Sure, sure.”

“Brother Jiao, do you know this lord?”

“Yes, yes… Haha, 1 just knew him yesterday.”

Everyone paused and p.r.i.c.ked up their ears to listen.

Xia Tang asked, “Is this Lord Lin from the prefecture capital?”

“I’m guessing that he should be from the prefecture capital. This lord is ridiculously powerful. Do you know the captain of the second patrol team, Qin Xiang?”

Xia Tang shrunk his neck. “Of course 1 know. To be honest, 1 suffered under Qin Xiang and was almost slashed by him.”

“Brother, you’re quite unlucky. However, that Qin Xiang was defeated by our Lord Lin yesterday!”

“Really?!”

“Of course it’s true. Even his sword was s.n.a.t.c.hed by Lord Lin and he didn’t dare to say a word. His face was pressed to the ground by Lord Lin!”

“This Lord Lin is actually so powerful!”

Xia Tang’s face was filled with shock. He had seen Qin Xiang’s sword before. It was a sword technique that he was powerless to resist!

But in front of this Lord Lin, he actually couldn’t even hold his sword?

With this in mind, if he couldn’t hold the spear and Qin Xiang couldn’t hold the sword, wouldn’t their strength be about the same?

“It seems that Lord Lin is really from the prefecture capital.” Xia Tang sighed slightly. “Sigh, is the difference between the people from the prefecture capital and us really so big?”

Suddenly, a cold female voice said from the group behind, “Senior Brother Lin is not from the prefecture capital.”

Everyone turned around. The person who spoke was Yu Qian. She had washed away her youthfulness and matured a lot overnight. From time to time, there was a coldness on her face that kept people away.

“Little sister, can you tell me in detail?”

Yu Qian said coldly, “Senior Brother Lin was born and raised in Ding’an City. He was once from a poor neighborhood. He’s definitely not what you think. He’s not from the prefecture capital.”

Xia Tang and Jiao Liang looked at each other in shock.

Ding’an City?

Someone from the lower district?!

With such a background, he could actually suppress a peerless genius from the prefecture capital like Qin Xiang?!

Was this for real?!

This was too exaggerated!

He wanted to ask more, but Yu Qian’s face was cold and she stopped talking.

Not long after, Lin Yan came out and stood on the steps. He glanced around and said in a low voice, “The next round of the Dingdeng Genius Battle is extremely dangerous. There’s a risk of losing your life.

“Furthermore, no matter if you win or lose, after the compet.i.tion, you have to leave Ding’an City forever and never return.

“Let’s make it clear first. There’s still a chance to withdraw. If you don’t want to partic.i.p.ate, you can leave immediately.

“Once you enter this door, you won’t be able to leave!”

Their breathing quickened. Since they dared to sign up for the Dingdeng Genius Battle, they had already understood the risks. Naturally, none of them withdrew.

“Alright, follow me in.”

He led ten people to meet Liu Lanqing.

Liu Lanqing said a few encouraging words and ordered two Demon Suppression Guards to bring the ten people to their residences according to gender.

“The nine districts in the inner city have already been connected. Next, the entire inner city will be the residence of all the genius seeds in the Dingdeng Genius Battle. Unless there are special circ.u.mstances, you are not allowed to leave the inner city!”

The ten of them cupped their hands respectfully, indicating that they would remember.

After the ten of them left, Lin Yan heaved a sigh of relief.

Liu Lanqing revealed a satisfied smile. “Lin Yan, you did a good job. 1’11 give you a Small Merit for this mission.”

“Thank you, Issuer Liu.”

Lin Yan had been on duty for a total of eight days. His basic salary was four Small Merits. Coupled with this Small Merit, he had a total of five Small Merits.

Including the compensation deducted from Qin Xiang’s salary, four Great Merits and five Small Merits. They were just enough to make five Great Merits.

However, Liu Lanqing had already exchanged all the Spirit Marrows in her hand. Lin Yan planned to ask after the people from the prefecture capital arrived.

He took his leave.

Lin Yan exhaled.

He was walking on the street, preparing for his afternoon patrol.

Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks and looked at the end of the inner city road.

A group of about a hundred people slowly walked over from the end of the road.

The clothes they wore were of different colors and styles. It was obvious that they were different from the locals.

The few people in front surged with a terrifying aura. They looked down at the surrounding situation.

Behind them were all young people with different expressions. At this moment, most of them were looking left and right curiously.

In the inner city, the remaining residents of Ding’an City subconsciously lowered their necks. As they cowered, they sized up this group of foreign guests curiously.

The first batch of genius seeds from the outer cities had arrived!
