Chapter 177 Choice (asking for monthly ticket)

"Master Xing!"

With waves of shouts coming one after another, Xing Yue's competition finally came to an end.

Relying on the Xing family swordsmanship, Xing Yue, with the strength of a beginner Heavenly Rank, defeated the Qizhou female warrior with the strength of an intermediate Heavenly Rank.

Jiang Xuan, who was off the court, had to admit that Xing Yue was really lucky.

However, he understood that it would be unfair to Xing Yue to attribute his victory solely to his good luck.

He and Xing Yue had been enemies since childhood. Until Jiang Xuan left Yingzhou, there were no major conflicts between him and Xing Yue, but there were constant minor conflicts.

Jiang Xuan always thought that Xing Yue had the temper of a young master, and he loved to throw tantrums when he was a child.

That day in Yingzhou City, Xing Yue specifically blocked the way and tried to snatch the second-level inner elixir that Jiang Xuan and Jiang Xian had brought over.

However, Jiang Xuan didn't expect that although he wanted to vent his anger for his sister, he ended up making things worse and let his black wolf hurt Xing Yue.

This led to Xing Yue and his father coming to the house to ask for an explanation.

Things often happen by coincidence. It was because Jiang Xuan injured Xing Yue that Xing Rufeng found a reason to seize the ownership of the pharmacy.

It was precisely because Jiang Xuan injured Xing Yue that Xing Yue was able to obtain the second-level inner elixir that Jiang Xuan and his sister Jiang Xian had obtained in Qingxi Town, and later obtained the heavenly-level elixir, which helped Xing Yue successfully advance to the ranks of heavenly-level warriors.

Jiang Xuan also thought, what would the situation be like now if Xing Yue had not been hurt?
Will the second-level inner elixir be given to the Xing family? Will Xing Yue successfully advance to the ranks of a Heavenly Rank warrior? Everything is unknown.

However, having said that, Jiang Xuan still felt that it was only a matter of time before Xing Yue advanced to the Heavenly Rank and became a Heavenly Rank warrior.

And that Heaven Grade Pill was only to help Xing Yue advance to the Heaven Grade as quickly as possible, so as not to delay Xing Yue's participation in the selection of Yingzhou Martial Arts School.

Jiang Xuan was still very positive about Xing Yue's attitude towards cultivation.

It was also because of this that Xing Rufeng and Xing Yue, father and son, had different requests when they went to the Jiang family that day.

Xing Rufeng was concerned about the interests of the Xing family. Therefore, he took advantage of his son being beaten to make Jiang Yuan voluntarily give up the competition for the ownership of the herbal medicine shop.

Xing Yue's considerations were different from his father's. He was completely focused on cultivation. Although he was a bit casual in his daily life, he was very clear-headed when it came to cultivation.

So, when he went to the Jiang family that day, Xing Yue reminded his father to ask the Jiang family for the second-level inner elixir.

However, that day, Xing Rufeng did not ask for the second-level inner elixir out of consideration for the interests of his family. Instead, he asked the Jiang family to give up the fight for the ownership of the medicine shop.

What Jiang Xuan didn't know was that later, the Xing family gave up the fight for the ownership of the medicine shop and chose the second-level inner elixir instead, and refined the heavenly-level elixir for Xing Yue, allowing Xing Yue to successfully advance to the heavenly level and become a heavenly-level warrior.

However, Xing Rufeng made this choice because he still considered the family interests of the Xing family.

The Xu family can almost be said to be the only dominant family in the Yingzhou Chamber of Commerce, with the Xing and Jiang families competing for the second and third places.

Although the Xing family's strength is slightly higher than that of the Jiang family, Xing Rufeng understands that the Xing family's second position in the Yingzhou Chamber of Commerce is not stable.

If the Xing family wants to maintain its second place, it cannot just fight for the ownership and management rights of some shops, but must take a two-pronged approach and also work hard on the young people in the family.

As the son of the Xing family, Xing Yue has excellent aptitude in martial arts.

In the eyes of many Yingzhou people, Xing Yue's martial arts aptitude is much better than that of the eldest son of the Xu family, who has already entered the Yingzhou Martial Arts School and even become a core disciple of the Yingzhou Martial Arts School.

"There's no doubt that Xing Yue will join the Yingzhou Martial Arts School. With his aptitude and hard work, it's only a matter of time before he becomes a core disciple. By then, both the Xu family's eldest son and Xing Yue will be core disciples of the Yingzhou Martial Arts School."

Jiang Xuan thought so in his mind, but there were some things that he couldn't think of a good solution for at the moment.

Then it’s still a question of his identity.

On the surface, Jiang Xuan is the son of the Jiang family. Although the Jiang family is only at the bottom of the three major families of Yingzhou Chamber of Commerce, this will not have any major impact.

However, neither his father Jiang Yuan, nor he nor his sister Jiang Xian could reveal their identities as warriors. In this situation, how to use warriors to improve the family's status in the Yingzhou Chamber of Commerce, and even improve the Jiang family's status in Yingzhou, became a very difficult matter.

At this time, he didn't even know the specific reason why his father couldn't reveal his identity as a warrior. This also made him speak carefully when communicating with Mr. Sha to avoid revealing any flaws.

However, based on his understanding of his father Jiang Yuan, since his father said so, he must have his reasons.

The good news is that according to Mr. Sha, he has some ways to solve Jiang Xuan’s identity problem.

Although Jiang Xuan did not know what Sha Lao's specific method was at this time, Jiang Xuan still left room for maneuver in this matter.

If Mr. Sha still fails to find a corresponding method, or a better method, when the winner is completely determined and the identity needs to be revealed, then although Jiang Xuan is reluctant to give up the reward that is about to be obtained, he can also leave in a leisurely manner.

This will prevent the warrior identities of the Jiang family's three members, father and son, from being exposed.

Jiang Xuan had thought about this early on.

To take a step back, if Jiang Xuan really gave up the corresponding rewards, he would have met outstanding warriors from the Five States who were difficult to meet under normal circumstances during the Five States Martial Arts Show, and received training that was almost impossible to achieve under normal circumstances. His gains were not small.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xuan's heart finally calmed down a little.

At this moment, he almost didn't want to think about these things anymore.

Because of the Burning Marrow Pill, he had to endure excruciating pain while also considering extremely delicate matters. Since yesterday, he had been exhausted both mentally and physically.

He was always grateful for Mr. Sha's help, and at this moment, he could only hope that Mr. Sha could come up with a foolproof plan.

……

"Master Xing!"

"Master Xing!"

While Jiang Xuan was thinking, Xing Yue had already walked down the martial arts stage surrounded by a group of female warriors, and the shouts were getting farther and farther away.

Coincidentally, just after Xing Yue walked down from the martial arts stage, he happened to pass by Jiang Xuan.

Xing Yue didn't know that Jiang Xuan was present at the Wuzhou Martial Arts Show. In fact, he didn't even know that Jiang Xuan was a warrior.

However, at this moment, Jiang Xuan was filled with emotion.

The two little enemies in the past have both become heavenly-level warriors.

What’s more noteworthy is that both of them became the winners of the Heavenly Stage Group in the Five States Martial Arts Competition.

This means that it is basically a foregone conclusion that each of them will receive a portion of Strengthening Muscle Powder as a reward.

"The first four rounds of the Five States Martial Arts Competition have concluded. According to the rules of this Five States Martial Arts Competition, all winners are requested to come to Mi Cuifeng tomorrow to verify their identities and claim their corresponding rewards."

"After identity verification tomorrow, the winners of each group will compete to determine the top three. Please arrive on time."

"Tomorrow, those who fail to arrive on time will be deemed to have forfeited their qualification as winners and will also lose the qualification to compete in the winning group."

After a while, an old man spoke in the martial arts arena.

Once these words were spoken, it meant that the first four rounds of the Five States Martial Arts Show were all over.

Next up is the most competitive competition for the winning group.
