1473 Chapter 1542: Seerâs quota!
The atmosphere in the hall became awkward. Even the old man sitting at the head of the table couldnât help but twitch his lips⊠âŠ
The second brother had been wasted for so many years, and his temper hadnât changed at all⊠âŠ
...
Everyone, including the elders of the collateral families, also had awkward expressions on their faces. After all, they were also the ones who licked their faces.
âYouâŠâ. ââŠâ. âHow can you say that about second brother?âFourth Elder pointed at the other party with a trembling finger. âBack then, for your son, Seer, how much did the clan pay? âOh, now that youâve achieved some results, you donât recognize me anymore? âYouâre still licking your face? Iâll tell you today! âEveryone here has the right to ask for a spot from you!â
These words immediately made everyoneâs backs straighten a little. Thinking about it, it made sense. Back then, for the sake of second brotherâs seer, the clan had been so frugal. Now that they wanted a spot, why were they licking their faces?
âWell⊠<per_0> . Zhuxing did not want to sell it at all. âSeer moving into the Empyrean God realm is a policy that everyone has agreed upon. The backdoor budget error should not be blamed on my family. After all, if Seerâs aptitude had been that of a warrior back then, it would have been much safer. You all have always felt that your family had been wronged, but my son had originally had a bright future and had taken a gamble with it. is he not wronged?â
âWhatâs more, after so many years, my husband and I have left our family affairs to work outside. For over a hundred thousand years, every bit of our savings has been handed over to our family. We even directly sold the genes that we condensed. Together, the sum is enough to pay off seerâs tuition fees back then. Even if we owe you, we have already paid it off. Donât tell me that you are planning to use your old debt to eat my family for the rest of your life?â
âYouâŠâthe fifth elder was so angry that his face turned red, and the faces of the people around him also turned ugly.
However, for a moment, he could not say anything because what the other party said was right. The debts of the second branch had actually been paid back a long time ago. The reason why the old debts were still being talked about all these years was mainly because there were people behind it, and the younger generation did not know.., the older generation was very clear in their hearts.
Fifth Elder was about to continue when the other party waved his hand and said, âFifth Elder, you donât have to say anymore. You said that the heaven-cleaving quota is the same. If you donât like it, you can just leave!â
Fifth Elderâs entire body froze on the spot!
The other partyâs threat was extremely direct, leaving him speechless⊠âŠ
It was not just him. The others also quieted down. To put it bluntly, everyone was here to ask for the quota, but they were not in the mood to offend the main character like fifth elder.
âSince no one has any objections, Iâll announce the rules of the quotaâŠâsecond brother swept his gaze across the crowd. He placed his hands behind his back and straightened his back.
In this day and age, people with confidence were indeed tough when they spoke. After being bullied for so many years, he could finally ask for some interest⊠âŠ
Facing such a tough zhuxing, fifth brother could only look at his boss as if he was asking for help. Boss gangshi opened his mouth but didnât say anything in the end. After all, his lineage also wanted the quota. After all⊠ââŠâ. Rennes was not the only child in his family.
âI havenât been back for a long timeâŠâzhuxing said lazily, âIâm not familiar with everyone, so Iâll just follow the rules. Children with high aptitude and good grades will be given priorityâŠâ
When these words came out, everyoneâs faces were shocked. Some showed excitement, while others had extremely gloomy expressions!
Zhuxing ignored the changes in the crowd, he said straightforwardly, âIâm not very familiar with the younger generation, so Iâll talk directly about the data of the family. At present, among the younger generation, Amy has the best data. Her bone structure is the best, and itâs the rare bone structure of a Golden Thunder Warrior. She has been studying martial arts at Lieutenant Colonel Zichuan these years, and her results are good. Whether itâs her basic points or her combat points, her performance in the same year is also quite excellent. She should be qualified to get a spotâŠâ. ââŠâ
His words made a skinny, middle-aged thunder warrior in the crowd tremble with excitement. He used to be a branch of the side family who had abandoned his grandfather. After he had returned, he had worked hard for many years, however, he still had a different identity, which was why he didnât get many resources.
He had worked hard all his life. Plus, his daughter was very talented, which was why his grandfather had approved her to enter the glorious amethyst star. Among the people who came to ask for a place this time, he was one of those who didnât have much confidence, he only hoped that his master would give his daughter a chance because of her outstanding aptitude. After all, it would be a pity if Amyâs aptitude was wasted.
When the man from the second branch said that they would choose the quotas based on her grades and aptitude, his whole body tensed up. His heart was beating so fast that it was in his throat. He didnât expect that the man would do as he said and fill every cell in his body with excitement. It made him so excited that he could not even say the words of gratitude in a choked voice for a moment⊠âŠ
âThank⊠Thank you, second masterâŠâafter a long while, the middle-aged man finally stammered out a few words⊠âŠ
Zhuxing glanced at the middle-aged man, he said coldly, âThereâs nothing to thank. Iâm only acting in accordance with the interests of the family. Your daughter was chosen only because of her own excellence. If she were to fail the familyâs nurturing in the future, I will be the first to take back what she owes us!â
âYes, yes, yes!âThe other party trembled as he held onto his waist. He still replied with great gratitude, âSecond master, donât worry. Mila will definitely not let the family down!â
âI hope soâŠâzhuxing replied coldly and continued to read out the names of the remaining people.
One by one, the names were read out. In the crowd, there were people who were as excited as the middle-aged man from before. There were also people who had extremely gloomy expressions⊠âŠ
And this group of people who did not look good were the Guanxi faction led by the fifth elder. It just so happened that most of their own children were good-for-nothings. In the end, they did not seem to have any intention of giving their children quotas, this caused the faces of the group of people to turn frighteningly dark.
Of course, other than this group of people, in fact, most of the people in the crowd, even if their names were not read out, had better expressions than they had imagined. After all, this kind of round-robin selection was more convincing than Guanxi selection. On the contrary, most of the people had a lot of ideas⊠âŠ
When the nineteenth spot was read out, zhuxing put away the booklet in his hand, he stopped. âThatâs the general situation. If you have any more questions, you can ask them now. Itâs getting late. If you have nothing to do, could you please inform your juniors to gather at the teleportation station? Weâll set off in an hour at most!â
The group of collateral family parents who had received the quota immediately wanted to run away. This was like having money in oneâs pocket. At this time, they did not want any more mishaps to happen, so they quickly went home to inform their children!
âWait a minute!âOld five finally could not hold it in any longer and spoke!
âOh?âZhuxing looked at the other party lazily. âOld Five, do you have anything else to say? Please hurry, time is of the essenceâŠâ
âSecond brotherâŠâold five took a deep breath, he lowered his voice and said, âI wonât say anything if we elders canât go. After all, just like what you said, we should give young people some opportunities. It would be a waste for us old fellows to go and take the spots. But after all, we elders are old men who have done our best for the clan. Now that we have such an opportunity, are we really not going to show you any respect?â
Zhuxing chuckled. âFifth brother, your words are a little ridiculous. If youâre talking about the familyâs feelings, could it be that you think the family owes you something? Youâve worked for the family for so many years. Did the family mistreat you? Didnât give you the corresponding treatment? Did your family enjoy less resources?â
âThatâs not what I meant!âFifth Brother said quickly.
âThen who are you talking about feelings with? me?âZhuxing laughed even more happily. âThen itâs even easier to answer you. You and I donât have any feelings!â
âCoughâŠâ
In the hall, everyone could not help but choke. They gritted their teeth and held back the urge to laugh. Their faces were red from holding it in. They looked extremely comical.
âYouâŠâold five was flustered. âIf you werenât lenient, why did you keep me here just now?â
âI kept you?âZhuxing revealed an expression of reminiscence, a few seconds later, he suddenly came to a realization. âOh, you mean just now? âI said that if you have any objections, you can leave. I didnât say that if you donât have any objections, you can have a spot if you stay. Wasnât the rules announced earlier very clear? âWe judge people according to their aptitude and results. Donât you know whether that idiot grandson of yours can get a spot or not? âIâve been very curious just now. What are you waiting for in the hall like a Fool?â
âPFFT! !â
This time, a few people couldnât help but burst out laughing. Among them were the third elder and the fourth elder.
After so many years, they had finally seen fifth elder suffer. If not for the presence of the old man, the two of them would have wanted to record a video and go back to enjoy it⊠âŠ
âYou⊠youâŠâfifth elder was so angry that his entire body was trembling. Finally, he looked at Boss gunsh. âBig Brother, look at second elder!â
Gunsh frowned and said, âSecond brother, youâre right. If you donât want to give him a spot, then donât. Why are you wasting old fiveâŠâ
âI donât have the time to waste himâŠâ. Zhuxing rolled his eyes and said, âHe directly came up to be slapped in the face. No one with face would ask for a spot for their idiot grandson like him. What do you think, Big Brother?â
âWatch Your Words!âGunsh said with a straight face, âThe grandson of the fifth family is a little lacking in talent. You are an elder of a grandfatherâs generation, yet you speak like an idiot and shut your mouth. What do you think?â
The fifth brother looked at his big brother in a daze. His big brother seemed to be speaking up for him, but⊠⊠He did not have any intention of fighting for a spot for him. On the contrary⊠⊠there was a feeling of acquiescence. âŠ
GUNSH obviously felt fifth brotherâs resentful gaze, but he could only brace himself and pretend not to see it.
The reason was very simple. In public, second brother would directly play the card of selecting a scholar based on talent. This method was naturally the most recognized by the public. If fifth brother wanted to openly cut the queue based on his connections, how could he show it in publicâŠ
The children that the second brother announced just now were the ones with the best aptitude and results among the younger generation in the family. If he openly asked for a spot for the fifth brother, then would the other people who were with him also fight for a spot? Wouldnât the results announced earlier be completely disrupted under such chaos?
Putting aside whether or not it could change the result, even if it could, he had directly offended these collateral family members who had already obtained a spot. One had to know that being chosen by the second brother meant that their descendantsâaptitude was indeed the best among the younger generation in the family. Donât bully the young and poor. It was not a good thing to openly offend so many outstanding juniors⊠âŠ
Avoiding fifth brotherâs gaze, gunsh directly changed the topic. âSecond brother, didnât you just say that there was one less spot? werenât there twenty spots?â
When zhuxing heard this, he did not even lift his eyelids and said indifferently, âThe last spot, naturally, I have to leave it for my son Xi Ye First! !â
