Chapter 158: The trials begin, the exchange competition is approaching

The next day, Xu Shisan went to the Lin family again, but not to find Lin Muxue, but to find the little girl Lin Yaya.

After returning from the competition this time, Xu Shisan brought back a total of eleven three-leaf spirit gathering grasses and ten bottles of revitalizing liquid. He gave one three-leaf spirit gathering grass to Ke'er, one bottle of revitalizing liquid to Chen Xi, one three-leaf spirit gathering grass and one bottle of revitalizing liquid to Shen Zhizhi, and yesterday he gave one three-leaf spirit gathering grass and one bottle of revitalizing liquid to Lin Muxue.

There is no need to talk about Ke'er and Chen Xi. One is Xu Shisan's most beloved sister, and the other is Xu Shisan's childhood friend. Shen Zhizhi and Lin Muxue are also Xu Shisan's nominal fiancées. It is necessary to bring some gifts to them.

And Lin Yaya was also Xu Shisan's nominal fiancée. If he gave them everything, it would be unreasonable if he didn't give Lin Yaya anything.

If that little girl Yaya knew about this, she would probably be heartbroken.

So, Xu Shisan came here specially today to give her a gift.

Xu Shisan came to the side door of the Lin family again. The servant who opened the door was the same one as before. According to Xu Shisan's instructions, the servant called Lin Yaya over alone.

After seeing Yaya, Xu Shisan asked, "Yaya, did Senior Sister go home yesterday?"

"Yeah, my sister went home last night." Yaya nodded quickly, and then asked, "Brother Thirteen, are you here to look for my sister?"

"No, I'm here to find you."

"Looking for me? What do you want from me?" Lin Yaya asked puzzledly.

"It's like this, Yaya. I brought you a gift when I came back from the competition. But I was too anxious when I came to see you the day before yesterday, so I didn't give it to you yet. I came here today specifically to give you the gift." Xu Shisan said.

"Gift? What gift?" Lin Yaya stared with curious eyes.

Afterwards, Xu Shisan took out a bottle of revitalizing liquid and a three-leaf spirit gathering grass.

"Yaya, this is a three-leaf spirit gathering grass. I got it in the restricted area of ​​the forest during the competition. It was because of this three-leaf spirit gathering grass that I was missing for a month."

Hearing this, Lin Yaya's little face was startled. She was also a summoner. Although her talent was not as good as Lin Muxue's, she was now also an F-level summoner and would soon be promoted to E-level.

Lin Yaya also reads pharmacology knowledge on a daily basis, and she knows how precious this three-leaf spirit gathering grass is.

Unexpectedly, the gift that Brother Thirteen brought her was this.

"And this, this bottle is the Revitalizing Liquid, which I won by participating in a competition. There is only one bottle. I'm giving it to you, Yaya. Please accept it." As he spoke, Xu Shisan handed the bottle of Revitalizing Liquid and the Three-Leaf Spirit Gathering Grass to Lin Yaya.

Seeing this, Lin Yaya waved her hands quickly: "No, no, no, Thirteenth Brother, this gift is too expensive, I can't accept it."

Whether it is the three-leaf spirit gathering grass or the revitalizing liquid, they are both extremely precious things. As the saying goes, one cannot receive rewards without merit, so Lin Yaya did not dare to accept them.

"Why not? After all, you are my nominal fiancée. When we got engaged, the Court of Arbitration sent a lot of betrothal gifts, but they were only sent by the Court of Arbitration. I haven't given you anything myself. This three-leaf spirit gathering grass and this bottle of resurrection liquid can be regarded as my betrothal gifts to you."

Hearing this, Lin Yaya's face turned red. As a young girl just beginning to fall in love, how could she be immune to such sweet words? She was immediately aroused by Xu Shisan's words.

But Lin Yaya still declined politely: "Brother Thirteen, why are you giving me such a precious thing? Why don't you give it to me?"

That’s right, at the critical moment, Lin Yaya also thought of Lin Muxue.

Hearing this, Xu Shisan was a little embarrassed, but he still said righteously: "Yaya, I only have one bottle of this three-leaf spirit gathering grass and revitalizing liquid. If I give it to you, how can I give it to Senior Sister Mu Xue? You should know that your position in my heart is slightly higher than that of Senior Sister."

Although what Xu Shisan said was a bit jerkish, when a man gives a gift to a woman, no matter what his intention is, he must make the gift valuable.

If you don't say some sweet words to make the girl happy when giving her a gift, and don't describe the gift as particularly precious, then the gift will be in vain.

So, no matter it was Lin Muxue, Shen Jiji or Lin Yaya, Xu Shisan said that this was his only three-leaf spirit gathering grass and his only revitalizing liquid. Doesn't this show his sincerity?

This is how you should give gifts to girls.

As expected, after hearing what Xu Shisan said, Lin Yaya's face turned red again.

Although she didn't understand why her status in Thirteenth Brother's heart was higher than her sister's, which girl didn't like to hear such sweet talk?

Lin Yaya was naturally happy.

"Okay Yaya, don't worry about it. I've delivered the things to you. You can't just give them back to me. Just accept them."

Xu Shisan forced the things into Lin Yaya's hands, and then instructed:

"Yaya, you must remember not to tell your sister about this. If she finds out, you will be putting me in an unjust position."

"Okay, then I'll accept it." Lin Yaya thought for a moment and accepted it.

After Lin Yaya accepted the gift, Xu Shisan went back.

In the evening, Lin Yaya thought about it and decided to give the three-leaf spirit gathering grass to Lin Muxue.

She thought that although she was also a summoner, she was only F-level after all. Taking this three-leaf spirit gathering grass would waste a lot of its medicinal effects, so it would be better to give it to her sister.

Moreover, Thirteenth brother gave her two gifts, but her sister got neither. Her sister would definitely be sad when she knew it. If she took the initiative to give one to her sister, it would be fairer for them to each get one gift.

So, Lin Yaya wanted to give the three-leaf spirit gathering grass to Lin Muxue.

But before she could go find Lin Muxue, Lin Muxue came to find her.

After Lin Muxue came to Lin Yaya's room, she said to her: "Yaya, this time my sister went out and brought me a gift. See if you like it."

As she spoke, Lin Yaya took out a small jade bottle, which was the revitalizing liquid that Xu Shisan had given her.

That's right, Lin Muxue and Lin Yaya had the same idea. Lin Muxue was afraid that Lin Yaya would be sad when she found out that Xu Shisan gave her a gift, so she took the initiative to take out a bottle of revitalizing liquid, one for each sister.

Seeing that her sister also gave her a bottle of revitalizing liquid, Lin Yaya hurriedly said: "Sister, what a coincidence, I also have a gift for you."

As she spoke, Lin Yaya quickly took out the three-leaf spirit gathering grass, and then said, "Sister, I don't want this bottle of revitalizing liquid, you can take it back."

Lin Muxue did not answer her, but stared at the three-leaf spirit gathering grass in surprise.

"Yaya, how come you also have a three-leaf spirit gathering grass?"

"Ah? This three-leaf spirit gathering grass is mine."

Lin Yaya was about to make up a lie to get away with it, because she had promised Xu Shisan not to tell her sister about his gift.

But the next second, Lin Muxue asked: "Could it be that Thirteen gave it to you?"

"Ah?" Lin Yaya was stunned and replied subconsciously: "Sister, how did you know?"

Hearing this, Lin Muxue's face suddenly turned dark, and she also took out a three-leaf spirit gathering grass from her arms.

Seeing this, Lin Yaya silently took out a bottle of revitalizing liquid from her arms.

The two women looked at each other, looking at the two bottles of revitalizing liquid and two three-leaf spirit gathering grasses in front of them.

"This guy!!" Time passed quickly, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

The past half month has been very peaceful, with nothing important to mention.

If I were to tell the truth, within the past half month, Xu Shisan took Xia Keer, Chen Xi and Shen Zhizhi to Dongxiang.

Nearly half a year has passed since the Togo Incident, and Togo is undergoing vigorous reconstruction, with the Court of Arbitration providing special support.

Most of the surviving residents of Dongxiang have returned to Dongxiang to live.

After all, this is their hometown.

No matter how rich or poor a person becomes, no matter where he wanders or settles down, he has only one hometown, which is where he grew up.

Hometown is a feeling.

However, Xu Shisan and Ke'er, Chen Xishen and others only stayed in Dongxiang for four or five days before returning.

Anyway, they have settled down in the imperial capital now, and they can't go back to Dongxiang for the time being. Even if they miss it, they can only go back occasionally to visit.

After returning from Dongxiang, there will be exchange competitions among various countries in half a month.

Longguo is the organizer of this exchange competition, and the exchange will be held at the Imperial Capital College.

The Dragon Country Arbitration Court also attached great importance to this exchange competition and held a selection competition half a month in advance to select the participants for the exchange competition.

Xu Shisan originally wanted to sign up, but that day Mr. Chen found him and said to him:
"Thirteen, the teacher is here to talk to you today because there is something I want to tell you. The exchange competition between various countries will be held in half a month. The teacher has applied to the Judgment Institute, and the Judgment Institute has agreed to treat you as a designated participant. You don't have to participate in the selection competition."

Hearing this, Xu Shisan hurriedly thanked: "Thank you for the recommendation, teacher."

"Well, it wasn't me who recommended you this time. To be precise, someone else had already recommended you before I did," replied Mr. Chen.

"Oh? Who?" Xu Shisan was a little confused.

"I heard that he was a corps commander in the army, his last name was Gu."

After hearing this, Xu Shisan also understood.

The legion commander with the surname Gu, isn’t that Gu Yun?

Before returning from the last hunting competition, Gu Yun asked Xu Shisan whether he wanted to participate in this exchange competition, and she could recommend him to the Arbitration Court.

"Actually, it doesn't matter whether you are recommended or not. If you don't have the ability, it will be useless no matter who recommends you. The Arbitration Court also believes in your ability, so they specially reserved a place for you." At this time, Old Chen said again.

"Yes." Xu Shisan did not deny it.

Then he asked Mr. Chen: "Teacher, how many internal appointments does Longguo have this time?"

"According to the information I have learned, there are currently three vacancies in total. One of them is you. In addition to you, there are two other people."

"Who are the other two people?"

"I don't know about this either, but as far as I know, the other two should be two A-level summoners. After all, A-level summoners cannot participate in the trials, so they can be directly selected internally." Old Chen explained.

"Oh, so that's how it is. That means, in this exchange tournament, our Dragon Country has produced two A-level summoners?"

"Well, there should be two."

"Oh, then the genius of our Dragon Country is really a hidden dragon and crouching tiger."

"Although our Dragon Country has two A-level summoners this time, the strength of the players from various countries is very good this time. In the last term, Eagle Country had four A-level summoners. I wonder how many there are this time."

"After some time, each country will submit a list of contestants to our Dragon Country. By then, we will know how many A-level summoners each country has."

Two more days passed, and the selection competition held by the Court of Arbitration officially began.

This time, the trials will also be held in the Imperial Capital Academy. All summoners across the country can participate, but there are two restrictions.

First, the age cannot be over 26 years old. This requires bone age measurement, and no more than a day is allowed.

The second is the B-level summoner.

There are not many people in the country who can reach B-level summoners before the age of 26. After all, there are only about a hundred students in the S School of the Imperial Capital Academy.

However, there are still quite a few B-level summoners who have registered for this selection and meet the requirements.

There are more than two hundred people in total, and most of the students in the S School of the Imperial Capital College have signed up. They all want to become official members of the exchange competition and want to win glory for Dragon Country.

There were also geniuses in the army, talented younger disciples from major families, and many B-level summoners who were somewhat famous and met the requirements.

During the trials, although Xu Shisan did not participate, he watched the games and met many familiar faces.

Xu Shisan knew Zhou Qi, Liao Tianhan, Han Tianci and many other people from S College. Hu Kai, Luo Xiong and others also came to participate in the selection.

Including Xu Shisan’s brother-in-law Shen Xuanang, who also participated in the selection.

The trials lasted for five days.

More than 200 people competed for only seven spots. The competition was very intense and cruel.

Five days later, the trials ended and seven finalists were selected.

Among these seven people, Xu Shisan was familiar with four of them.

Shen Xuanang, Han Tianci, Hu Kai, Luo Xiong.

Although Xu Shisan's brother-in-law Shen Xuanang only has two B-level summoned beasts, his Earth Dragon Beast's dominance on the ground is so terrifying that it is no exaggeration to say that he is invincible in the same level.

With countless derivative skills and full control methods, it is difficult for any B-level summoner to beat him in a one-on-one fight.

In addition, his Thunder Eel is not only a flying summoned beast, but also possesses domineering lightning power. When combined with Dracomon, it is like adding wings to a tiger.

Therefore, Xu Shisan was not surprised that Shen Xuanang was able to break through the selection.

As for Han Tianci, he has three B-level summoned beasts and is ranked third on the Imperial Capital College S School Strong List. The top two on the strong list have not yet participated in the selection because their actual ages are about to exceed twenty-six years old and therefore they cannot participate.

In other words, Han Tianci is equivalent to the number one on the S Academy's strong list, so it's not surprising that he was able to break through the siege.

There are also Hu Kai and Luo Xiong, they are both outstanding talents in the army, and they also have three B-level summoned beasts. It is not surprising that they can break through the siege.

After all, it is not surprising that they can join the hunting team, win a qualifying competition, and become members of the exchange competition.
