Chapter 3406: Disappointing News
These people, each with a gleam in their eyes, were eager.
They were able to stand out from the fiercely competitive Jinying family and become the best of the best. Naturally, they were very ambitious and no one would give in to anyone else.
Especially in the test arranged by the great city lord, everyone wanted to stand out, overwhelm others, and become the most dazzling existence.
Therefore, even if they were children of the same family, they would never give in to each other.
For example, the three people of the Huangfu family, Huangfu Jue, Huangfu Yan and Huangfu Ling, although they were brothers from the same clan, were now direct competitors. They would not be polite to each other just because they were brothers from the same family.
This was the case for people from the same family, not to mention children from different families.
However, when these children of the Jinying family rushed to the stone cliff, they received a piece of news that chilled them to the bone.
"What?"
"Has the opportunity of the city lord been given to others?"
They heard this news from General Manager An, and they all couldn't believe it.
At this moment, because they had arrived on the other side, they could already see other people who had also arrived on the other side. Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
"How is it possible?"
"We came so early, how could someone else get it?"
"No, that's not right. All the famous geniuses in our Jinying family are here, so who got the chance?"
"Master General Manager, it's not that we can't afford to lose, but we have to lose clearly. Several famous geniuses in the Jinying family said that they didn't get the chance."
"Yes, it's impossible that we didn't get the chance, but let the unknown people get it?"
"It can't be that in addition to the children of us Jinying family, there are also geniuses from the city lord's direct lineage participating?"
These children of the Jinying family were confused, and obviously couldn't accept such a result at all.
Could this test be deliberately tricking them?
If this wasn't a test presided over by the Grand City Lord himself, they would probably riot on the spot.
Fortunately, the Grand City Lord was in charge of the scene, and General Manager An's level was also higher than that of their respective family heads.
Therefore, they dare not be presumptuous.
However, not daring to be presumptuous does not mean that they have no doubts in their hearts.
After all, this does not make sense logically. The children of the major Jinying families are here, but no one has got the opportunity.
As a result, Manager An said that the opportunity has been taken by someone else. Isn't this a trick?
Unless the direct genius under the command of the Grand City Lord also participated in this test.
However, no direct genius under the command of the Grand City Lord was seen before. If they knew in advance that the direct descendants of the Grand City Lord participated in the competition, they would not be so confident, have such high expectations for themselves, and would not have such a big psychological gap.
Facing these people's questioning, Manager An just smiled lightly and said: "You have a spirit of doubt, which is good. However, the opportunity of the Lord City Lord is not a joke. When you return to where you came from, you will naturally solve your doubts."
Although this is more euphemistic, it is also telling them that this opportunity has been taken by someone else. It is an ironclad fact. Even if they have doubts, they can't change anything.
Manager An has said so much, and those who are more sensible already know that the facts cannot be changed, and they no longer struggle, but just sigh and turn back.
However, most people still cannot accept this fact, and hesitate under the thousands of stone carvings.
"Do you think this is a test from the city lord?"
"That makes sense, maybe it is a test of our firmness and whether we will give up easily."
"That's right, that's right."
"I almost got fooled, it seems that this may really be a test!"
"Maybe even Manager An is fake, just an illusion."
It has to be said that these geniuses of the Jinying family are still very quick-witted, and they can start to doubt whether this is a new test so quickly.
Manager An shook his head, and he also knew that these people would probably not listen to what he said now.
In fact, he himself found it incredible, what kind of monster is Su Chen?
He passed three consecutive tests at the fastest speed, which was fine. He only spent less than a quarter of an hour looking at the thousand stone carvings, and he saw through the opportunities hidden in them!
"No wonder these young people don't believe it. If it were me, I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it with my own eyes."
Manager An thought secretly, "Where did the Huangfu family find such a young man? His talent in alchemy is amazing, and he can give a recipe for the longevity pill, which is fine. But his talent in martial arts is not inferior at all? Could it be that the successor that the city lord has been looking for is right in front of him?"
Manager An is the confidant and loyalist of the great city lord. No matter what the great city lord says or does, he will definitely support him unconditionally.
