Chapter 137 Luo Cheng, Come Up!
The Ling family is quite lively at the moment.
In the square behind the Ling family mansion, there are nearly ten young men and women with noble appearances.
Among them, there are three disciples from Lieyun Sect and Luoxia Sect respectively.
In addition, there are several young talents from other sects.
These people have sharp eyes and extraordinary momentum, and they are all sixth-level warriors in the Transcendent Realm!
Although the Ling family wants to hire disciples from the three major sects the most, they don’t want to offend other sects.
In order to be fair, the Ling family also issued tasks to the second-rate sects near Wushi City.
There are a total of nine disciples from the sects present, and the Ling family will only hire three people, so they need to select and determine the three candidates who will accept the task.
The people who shouted just now are all from Lieyun Sect.
But as soon as the voice fell, a figure walked in, it was Luo Cheng.
"Hey, a disciple from Xuanyuan Sect!"
Seeing the Xuan character pattern on Luo Cheng's chest, the eyes of the people present became a little playful.
The voice of the Lieyun Sect disciple was so loud just now that the other party must have heard it.
The three Lieyun Sect disciples didn't care.
In fact, a tall and strong Lieyun Sect disciple in the middle stared at Luo Cheng with disdain.
So what if he heard it!
The comprehensive strength of Xuanyuan Sect ranks last among the three sects. The younger generation of disciples under the sect cannot be compared with Lieyun Sect at all. Even if they laugh at him in person, the other party may not dare to refute!
Cough!
A middle-aged man in his forties coughed lightly, breaking the awkward atmosphere, and said to Luo Cheng:
"I am Ling Qifeng, the head of the Ling family. Are you here for the escort mission?"
Luo Cheng nodded, "Xuanyuan Sect Luo Cheng, I was delayed on the way for a while, please don't blame me, head of the Ling family."
"It doesn't matter, the selection has not started yet."
Ling Qifeng smiled, his eyes fell on Luo Cheng, and his brows frowned slightly.
He noticed that Luo Cheng was only at the fifth level of the Transcendent Realm!
This is a two-star top-level mission, with many dangers on the road, and you have to cross the Galloping Horse Plains where monsters and bandits are rampant!
Because of this, the reward for each person who participates in the mission is 1.8 million taels!
The mission requirements are clearly stated, requiring three people with strength in the sixth level of the Transcendent Realm to escort the caravan!
A fifth-level Transcendent Realm warrior comes here, isn’t this a joke!
Haha!
A Lieyun Sect disciple laughed and said to Luo Cheng sarcastically:
"I thought Xuanyuan Sect had some experts, but it turned out to be a waste of the fifth level of Transcendent Realm. Is there no one left in Xuanyuan Sect? Any cat or dog dares to take the two-star top mission."
The tall young man laughed and said, "It seems that he wants to fish in troubled waters and earn the bounty for nothing! Unfortunately, we are here today, so it is not your turn to fill the number. However, you can stay here for free for one night, so it is not a wasted trip."
"I have heard that Xuanyuan Sect disciples like to take advantage of small things. It is better to meet them than to hear about them!"
The three Lieyun Sect disciples laughed at Luo Cheng wantonly and did not take him seriously at all.
The people from other sects stood aside and watched.
In their opinion, although the words of the three were excessive, they were not without reason.
With only the fifth level of Transcendent Realm, he actually came to take the two-star top mission. It was simply overestimating his own ability! Being laughed at was also a humiliation!
Luo Cheng looked at the three Lieyun Sect disciples expressionlessly:
"No matter how good you are at talking, it's just a show of force. Who is the fake one? Let's see who is the real one!"
"Oh?"
The tall young man raised his eyebrows and said disdainfully: "Show who is the real one? You are a fifth-level Transcendent Realm trash, do you still want to compete with us?"
"Hehe, Senior Brother Wu Ming, since this kid is looking for death, why not help him!"
A Lieyun Sect disciple holding a short stick came out directly and stared at Luo Cheng with ill intentions.
Luo Cheng waited coldly, ready to go.
Seeing this, the disciples of other sects all looked like they were watching a good show.
The disciples of Lieyun Sect and Xuanyuan Sect have been competing openly and secretly for many years, which is nothing new.
However, in every conflict, it is often the Xuanyuan Sect disciples who suffer, and this time will be no exception.
Seeing that a war is about to break out, Ling Family Patriarch Ling Qifeng stood up.
"Everyone, let's start the selection first!"
Everyone came for the mission, so it was not easy to offend the head of the Ling family.
The tall boy was called Wu Ming. He looked at Luo Cheng coldly and grinned: "Boy, after the selection, I will show you what I can do!"
"I'm waiting!"
Luo Cheng didn't care.
Wu Ming's eyes twitched, and his eyes suddenly became dangerous.
Originally, he just wanted to humiliate Luo Cheng and didn't want to trouble him, but when he thought that the other party was so arrogant, he couldn't blame him!
Ling Qifeng was even more speechless. He finally persuaded both parties, but he didn't expect that Luo Cheng would not bow his head at all. This time, it might be difficult to make peace.
However, he had done what he should do, and any consequences had nothing to do with him.
"Head of the Ling family, don't know how to select the quota for the mission?" A female disciple of Luoxia Sect asked.
Ling Qifeng said: "Everyone's cultivation is equal, so let's compare the martial soul grade. The three with the highest martial soul grade will get the quota."
Hearing this, Luo Cheng frowned.
If it was a competition of spirit rank, he would be the first to be eliminated.
"Master Ling, this is probably inappropriate."
Luo Cheng was about to raise an objection, but Wu Ming on the opposite side stood up first.
Ling Qifeng asked: "What's wrong with it?"
Wu Ming rolled his eyes and glanced at Luo Cheng: "Who said that everyone's cultivation is equal?"
All eyes were focused on Luo Cheng.
Wu Ming continued, "If we choose this way, it will be unfair if some people take advantage of the situation. In my opinion, let's have a real fight. Choose a place, and let the ten of us fight in a melee. The three who persist to the end will get the quota. How about it?"
"This..."
Ling Qifeng looked at Luo Cheng.
Anyone could see that Wu Ming proposed this selection to target Luo Cheng.
"No problem for me!"
Luo Cheng looked calm.
This was exactly what he wanted!
Seeing Luo Cheng's straightforward answer, everyone was a little surprised.
"No problem for us either."
The three female disciples of Luoxia Sect also nodded.
All the people from the three major sects agreed, and the other three could not refuse.
Besides, if they refused now, they would undoubtedly be known as cowards.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Ling Qifeng could not say anything more and took everyone to the Ling family's martial arts training ground.
In the middle of the martial arts training ground was a small competition arena.
The arena was square, with a length and width of fifteen steps each.
After a light cough, Ling Qifeng said, "Everyone, let's choose this venue. I'll add a few more rules. You will go on stage to fight, one-on-one. You will lose your qualifications if you fall off the stage or give up voluntarily. The three people who persist to the end will get the task quota."
"In addition, I hope you can stop at a certain point and don't hurt the harmony."
Swish!
As soon as Ling Qifeng finished speaking, Wu Ming took the lead and stepped onto the stage. He hooked his finger at Luo Cheng and sneered jokingly:
"Boy, don't you want to see the real thing with your hands? Come on up quickly!"
