C11 Elder Meng

The next morning, the cold wind was blowing. On the road outside Luori Town, an old man and a young man were hurrying on the road. Looking closely, they were Xiao Yihan and Old Man Pu Ling.

"Han, you must be careful in the competition. The outside world is different from the outside world. You must learn to be patient in everything. Think about the consequences in advance. Don't be too reckless. Otherwise, you will be the one to suffer. " Looking at Xiao Yihan's tender face, Old Man Pu Ling reminded him worriedly.

"Old man, don't worry! Your grandson is not someone who can be kneaded by anyone. " Raising his fist, Xiao Yihan lightly nodded his head. His clear black and white eyes revealed an unyielding spirit.

Seeing Xiao Yihan's stubborn look, Old Man Pu Ling slightly shook his head and could not help but sigh.

It was almost noon when Xiao Yihan and Old Man Pu Ling finally saw the magnificent city gate of Lakeside City.

Lakeside City was one of the most important border cities in Eastern Li. The guards here had always been strict. Although Xiao Yihan and Old Man Pu Ling wore simple clothes, they could not avoid being interrogated by the soldiers.

"Wow! There are so many people here!" As soon as he entered the city, Xiao Yihan was completely shocked by the scene in front of him.

The dense crowd rubbed against each other's shoulders, and the endless streets were filled with all kinds of goods.

The sound of peddlers, the noise, the sound of laughter. . . Rose and fell, as if it was a vivid painting.

It was the first time in Xiao Yihan's life that he had seen so many people. Feeling such a prosperous place, he looked around and felt that his eyes could not keep up.

"Haha! Han, the place where you will live in the future will be much stronger than this place. It's not an exaggeration for Martial Sect to call this place Zhong Xiu's land!" Old Man Pu Ling patted Xiao Yihan's head with a smile on his face. Then, he said in a soft voice.

"I will go to the Martial Sect. I must have some fun there!" Xiao Yihan couldn't help but say excitedly as he imagined the mysteriousness of Martial Sect.

"What kind of country bumpkin wants to enter the Martial Sect?! This was just a pipe dream. He didn't know what death was. I thought that our Lakeside City could be considered a remote and desolate place, but I didn't expect that there would be such a fellow who would come out of nowhere. Hahaha, I'm really envious of the others! "

At this moment, a strange voice suddenly sounded from behind Xiao Yihan.

When he asked about his reputation, he saw two young men who seemed to be slightly older than Xiao Yihan, constantly looking at him with mocking eyes.

"Han, I don't care about those young men. Let's hurry up. " Sensing Xiao Yihan's anger, Old Man Pu Ling frowned and patted his shoulder with a smile.

"En!" Glancing at Old Man Pu Ling and recalling what he had said to him, the anger on Xiao Yihan's face gradually dissipated. He nodded slightly and continued to follow the crowd.

"Hahaha, Brother Wuji, this kid is angry! This bumpkin is angry!" One of the young men dressed in beautiful green clothes laughed loudly at the young man who mocked Xiao Yihan earlier.

"Even if a dog is angry, it will still be stepped on by others. Look at the tattered clothes he is wearing. I don't know where he picked them up from, but I don't think it's shameful to walk on the street. Just looking at them makes me feel disgusted. " Curling his lips, the black-shirted youth continued to curse.

When he heard the young man's words, Xiao Yihan was completely enraged. His clothes were sewn by Old Man Pu Ling with a needle in the night. Even though it had been a few years, he still treated it like a treasure. How could he allow them to insult him like this?

"Brother Wuji, that bumpkin has stopped. He is probably looking for trouble with you! Hahaha! " The green-clothed youth raised his eyebrows and provoked.

" Kid, if you're not convinced, you can look for me in the Martial Sect's trial. This year, the Martial Sect only has five spots in Border Lake City. A bumpkin like you has no hope! Remember! My name is Juba!"

The corner of the black shirt youth's mouth slightly cracked as he stared at Xiao Yihan. His eyes revealed a trace of ruthlessness.

In fact, the number of people who could enter the Martial Sect this year had already been decided, and Jiba was not one of them.

When he heard that a poor kid who was younger than him was going to enter the Martial Sect, his jealousy and resentment had completely erupted. Xiao Yihan had naturally become his punching bag.

"Don't be overbearing! I'll remember that!" Secretly gritting his teeth, a trace of anger flashed across Xiao Yihan's eyes.

"Han, there is still a long way to go in the future. There are countless people like him, and some of them are even worse than them. You have to learn how to deal with them. Don't let them provoke you with just a few words. This is a great taboo! " Old Man Pu Ling quietly looked at Xiao Yihan. His brows were tightly knitted, and his face was stern as he warned Xiao Yihan.

Xiao Yihan nodded heavily and quickly blended into the crowd.

Looking at Xiao Yihan's stubborn figure, Old Man Pu Ling sighed helplessly and quickly chased after him.

"Don't be overbearing! You better wait for this young master. I will make you spit out all of your words, swallow them all back!" Travelling through the crowd, Xiao Yihan shouted in a low voice.

After being tricked by Ji Ba, the excitement in Xiao Yihan's heart when he first came to Lakeside City was completely gone. At this moment, he only wanted to start the competition as soon as possible.

In the center of the city, there was a huge square. It was used by the residents of Lakeside City to trade goods. But today, there was not a single merchant in the square.

When Xiao Yihan and Old Man Pu Ling arrived at the square, it was already packed with people. The dense crowd surrounded the entire square in a large circle.

"Have you heard? The person who came to Lakeside City today is an extraordinary figure. "

"I heard! He is an outer circle elder of Martial Sect. What's his name. . . "

"Meng Yuanbai! Elder Meng!"

"That's right, that's Elder Meng!"

" What? Are you talking about that Elder Meng who reached the Third Sky of Martial Cultivator Stage at the age of thirty?"

"Yes. I heard that even ordinary Martial General Stage warriors have to be courteous to him. He is truly terrifying. "

“. . . ”

Hearing the discussions of the surrounding people, Xiao Yihan's eyes suddenly lit up. He had already forgotten about the previous troubles. Now, he only wanted to see who this so-called Elder Meng was.

"Third Sky of Martial Cultivator Stage! I wonder if this old man is as powerful as this Elder Meng!" Xiao Yihan turned around and looked at Old Man Pu Ling, who was standing behind him.

After squeezing out of the crowd with great difficulty, Xiao Yihan could finally see the entire central square clearly. However, although the center of the square was spacious, there was no one there at the moment.

"Still not starting?" Raising his head to look at the scorching sun in the sky, Xiao Yihan gently wiped the sweat off his forehead and muttered discontentedly.

"Don't worry, it's not time yet. " He felt that Xiao Yihan was somewhat impetuous. Old Man Pu Ling patted his head and comforted him with a smile.

Time passed, and unknowingly, it was already noon. Although it was winter, it was exceptionally hot today.

Suddenly, a commotion broke out in the crowd. Looking over, they saw a young man in his twenties, surrounded by a group of gorgeous nobles and nobles, slowly walking towards the center of the square.

"Elder Meng is really much younger than the legends!"

"I heard that Elder Meng is going to break through to the Martial General Stage in a few years. A thirty-year-old Martial General Stage warrior is truly a dragon among men. "

"Shh, lower your voice. Elder Meng is here!"

“. . . ”

Xiao Yihan carefully looked at this so-called Elder Meng. He was wearing a delicate white robe that looked like a celestial being. His eyes were long and narrow, and he could feel the bright light flashing in them from time to time. He held a colorful snake-shaped sword in his right hand. The cold light was threatening, and it was obvious that this sword was not an ordinary weapon.

However, the most eye-catching thing was the dark black badge hanging on the right side of his chest.

The ink-black badge exuded a gloomy atmosphere. The badge was inscribed with a Xuantian Sword that pointed straight to the sky, and below the sword were inscribed three bright moon patterns that shot out in all directions.

"Old man, what's that badge?" Xiao Yihan asked curiously.

"That is the Martial Sect's badge. You will have it when you become an official in the Martial Sect. " Looking at Elder Meng, Old Man Pu Ling smiled and shook his head. A trace of disdain flashed across his deep eyes.

"Cough cough!"

A burst of dry cough suddenly sounded, and the entire square instantly quieted down.

Looking over at the source of the sound, it was Elder Meng who had a smile on his face.

"Today! I represent the Martial Sect to come here and accept a disciple! It is my honor. The prosperity and enthusiasm of Border Lake City has exceeded my expectations. I will thank you first! I think everyone has been here for quite some time, so I won't waste your time. "

" I declare! The Martial Sect's disciple recruitment trial begins now!"

As soon as Elder Meng's voice faded, the crowd instantly boiled up. The sound of whistling wind rose and fell one after another, as if it was going to overturn the entire Border Lake City.

"It's finally starting!" Rubbing his aching ears, the corner of Xiao Yihan's mouth curled up into a confident smile.
