Chapter 420.1
Admission Qualification Certificate (1)
Twelve years later, Dongzhou, Qinglan City.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Qinglan City is located in the northeast of Dongzhou, with a population of only 80,000 to 90,000, but it is the largest city within a radius of three hundred miles. This place can be regarded as a veritable backcountry, sparsely populated, and people’s lives are also flat, with almost no waves.
But today, Qinglan City is extremely lively.
Not far from the south of the City Lord Mansion, there is a ring with a length and width of thirty feet. At this moment in the arena, two teenagers were fighting fiercely with bare hands.
Both of them looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, but one of them was wearing more expensive clothes than the other, obviously coming from a rich family.
The other person was dressed in coarse linen and had dark skin.
At first glance, he looked like he had just walked out of the crops in the field.
Under the arena, there was a group of ordinary people who kept shouting and waving their arms. What they shouted was surprisingly similar.
“Kill him! Kill him! Kill him, and the certificate will be yours!”“Young master Meng, I bet a full twenty taels of silver on you! You must not lose!”
“Boy surnamed Ling, let’s throw in the towel! Who are you to go against young master Meng? How could the Cultivation Academy in Wuling City be a place a person like you could go?”
“Go down! Go down!”
The young master, known as “young master Meng,” said provocatively to the other party, “Did you hear what the people below are saying? Ling Tian, why are you still struggling here and not quickly admitting defeat? Could it be that you think that as long as you stick to it, a miracle will happen?”
On the opposite side, Ling Tian, a young man in a coarse sackcloth, turned a deaf ear to the shouts of the crowd. He stared at the other party, and said coldly, “Meng Fanqiu, it’s still unknown who will win the battle! As long as I’m still standing here, I haven’t lost!”
“Tsk tsk!” Meng Fanqiu glanced at the blood stains on Ling Tian’s body, then at his slightly pale face, and sighed slightly, “Ling Tian, oh Ling Tian, the result is the same anyway, why don’t you just admit defeat? Do you have to take a beating before admitting defeat? Since you are so ignorant of kindness, then I have no choice but to be rude!”
Before he finished speaking, Meng Fanqiu rushed to Ling Tian like a gust of wind, and he slapped Ling Tian on the head.
Ling Tian reacted and quickly raised his hand to resist. The next moment, he felt a severe pain in his wrist, as if his wrist bone was about to be broken.
He gritted his teeth and kicked Meng Fanqiu’s waist violently.
Meng Fanqiu met his kick with an elbow and hit him precisely on the shin. The pain made Ling Tian’s face change drastically.
While Ling Tian’s right foot hadn’t retracted, Meng Fanqiu hooked Ling Tian’s left foot. Ling Tian couldn’t stand still, and his body fell backward involuntarily. Just when he was trying to adjust his posture, he felt a sharp pain from his side. Meng Fanqiu had kicked him on the waist.
“Puff!”
Ling Tian spat out a mouthful of blood, and he flew backward, falling heavily on the ring. He struggled to stand up, but the severe pain and injury in his body made him barely able to use any strength.
The people under the arena cheered in unison.
“Ling Tian, don’t you admit defeat yet?” Meng Fanqiu asked sarcastically.
Ling Tian coughed twice and spit out two mouthfuls of blood again. He gritted his teeth and stared at Meng Fanqiu, his eyes full of resentment.
Damn it! He was obviously only a little short! Just a little bit!
At this time, the City Lord Mansion behind the arena was built on the highest attic.
A red-haired girl with bright eyes and bright teeth was lying in front of the window, watching the scene in the arena.
When she saw that the boy was covered in blood but still refused to admit defeat, the girl couldn’t help being greatly moved.
She turned her head to look at the young man sitting next to him who was leisurely drinking tea, pouted, and said, “Big brother Yu, look at that young man, he is so pitiful!”
The boy who was called “big brother Yu” by the girl, looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, with luxurious clothes and an elegant demeanor. He was originally watching the match in the ring, but after watching half of it, he turned his head dully.
The two people fighting in the arena may look very powerful to others, but in his eyes, they are really not that much, and there is no way to arouse his interest.
After hearing the girl’s words, the boy shrugged his shoulders and said, “Okay, Huang’er, there are so many poor people in the world, do you still want to take care of them all?”
“But…” the girl bit her lip and said, “But we can definitely take out another qualification certificate! There are so many people in Qinglan City, and there is only one qualification certificate, how can people get it?”
The young man said helplessly, “Give Qinglan city one more qualification certificate, and other cities will have to give one less. Tell me, where did this qualification certificate come from?”
The girl rolled her eyes and said, “How about…just take one from Qianyun City?”
The girl felt that her proposal was very reasonable, so she became very excited, and she looked at the boy with anticipation in her eyes.
But the corner of the young man’s mouth twitched, and he said, “Qianyun City has a population of more than 800,000 people, and its heritage is profound. Thirty-two qualification certificates are already a very small quota. There are less than 80,000 people in Qinglan City. They also don’t have much background yet, if they are given another qualification certificate, people would laugh.”
