It's just a simulation game, how did the fairy become real?

[Chai Yashi kept her promise and decided on the spot to take you away from the market.]

Chapter 203 Changing Surname?

You hastily bid farewell to your parents and followed Chai Yashi into the capital city.

The Chai family mansion is far more spacious than you can imagine.

Even the marketplace outside the city is far inferior to this mansion.

What you might not expect is that these martial artists, who slayed demonic beasts with the ease of cutting vegetables, were actually just guards from the Chai family.

[When the young lady went out, she brought you back.]

News of this quickly spread throughout the Chai family mansion, and many servants wanted to see what you looked like.

However, the head of the guards was quite experienced in these matters, and he forcibly expelled everyone, preventing them from gathering outside the courtyard for too long.

[You're new here, and even the brief test at the market doesn't mean you're qualified to practice martial arts.]

That was just a random idea Chai Ya-shi came up with to discourage you.

[You were given a detailed test, which proved that you are not a martial arts prodigy, but simply someone whose talent is slightly above average.]

The guards only possess the most basic martial arts skills.

[For you, getting started isn't too difficult.]

However, if one wishes to delve deeper, it requires more than just a day or two of effort.

[Chai Yashi has sent servants several times to specifically inquire about your intentions. Perhaps your performance at the market was too outstanding; she doesn't want you to just be a guard.]

Unfortunately, you don't seem to have grasped what she meant.

Despite the servant's repeated questioning, you always gave the same answer.

You don't want to stop practicing martial arts.

Once you gave a clear answer, Chai Yashi stopped bothering you.

You've begun your daily practice routine.

The Chai family mansion was enormous, and as a guard, he was essentially a menial servant when there was nothing else to do.

You have a lot to do every day, but you never complain.

After all, everything the Chai family has been exposed to is many times better than anything you've ever seen before.

You cherish every opportunity to embrace new things.

[The capital city has many rules, and you rarely have the opportunity to leave your residence and travel alone. However, you can still get a glimpse of the city and understand its overall character.]

As a pivotal city controlling the entire south, this place sees a massive influx of people every day.

You now truly understand what the whole country is like.

Above the nation-states, there seems to be an even more powerful immortal family.

Those immortal sects are the true rulers.

The entire city only gets one chance every ten years to participate in the selection process by the immortals.

The last selection was seven years ago.

Considering your age, you do have a chance to participate in the next selection.

However, not just anyone can participate.

To participate in the selection of immortals, one not only needs exceptional talent, but also a recommendation from someone.

Both are indispensable.

You are well aware of your current level, which is far from sufficient, yet you still harbor some ambitions.

[In just six months since joining the Chai family, you've already defeated the deputy commander of the guards and taken his place.]

This matter quickly spread among the servants.

No one expected that the newcomer, who was initially rumored to lack talent, would grow so rapidly.

You have been summoned by Chai Shiya once again.

Chai Shiya's courtyard is located in the center of the mansion.

The small courtyard is decorated with many exquisite flowers.

Han Tao felt refreshed as soon as he stepped across the threshold.

"Have you adapted well over the past six months?"

Chai Shiya walked out of the house and looked Han Tao up and down.

The reason we chose to bring him back from the market was because we valued Han Tao; he was quick-witted and could work for us.

However, Chai Shiya did not expect that this kid was so focused on practicing martial arts, even though she had sent people over and hinted at it several times.

Still, it didn't change the boy's mind.

Chai Shiya originally planned to throw him into the guardhouse, toughen him up, let him suffer a bit, and then get him out.

What surprised her even more was that this guy was not only able to endure hardship, but his kung fu skills also improved very quickly.

In just six months, he not only defeated the original deputy commander, but even the current commander was finding it difficult to cope.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party had something they had up their sleeve, Han Tao might have already taken their place.

You should know that the Chai family went to great lengths to recruit this guard commander from the army.

"Thanks to Miss, I am doing very well here."

"I heard you've been inquiring about something lately?"

Chai Yashi looked at Han Tao in front of her. In the mouths of ordinary people, matters of immortals are just a topic of conversation.

The Chai family is indeed qualified, given the nomination of the participants.

However, the Chai family did not have the ability to independently nominate an official.

Even if their own families want to promote someone, they still have to go through layers of selection before they can finally enter the selection process of the immortals.

The Chai family's current power stems from the fact that they were chosen by the immortals several decades ago, which marked the beginning of their rise to prominence.

However, that clansman did not seem to have much talent on the path of cultivation.

This resulted in the Chai family not being eligible for independent nomination in subsequent elections.

"What is it you're referring to, Miss?" Han Tao feigned ignorance.

"I know you're smart and don't want to stay in one place. But if you want to be recommended by the family, you have to show enough value."

This applies no matter where you go.

No one will invest in a person who is worthless.

Chai Yashi didn't beat around the bush with Han Tao.

With three years remaining until the selection of immortals, the Chai family still has no suitable clansmen who meet the requirements.

Every time they sent people over, but every time, they were just there to make up the numbers.

Han Tao's change gave Chai Yashi a glimmer of hope.

Han Tao has only been truly involved in martial arts for about six months at most.

In just six months, he has become a threat to the strongest in the military. This has already proven Han Tao's talent in actual combat.

She had already ordered people to thoroughly investigate Han Tao.

They even dug up his past experiences at sea.

Chai Yashi was somewhat surprised by the speed at which this person was growing.

Regardless of the field or whether he has ever been exposed to such things before.

With dedication, one can reach heights that many people never achieve in a lifetime in a very short time.

Han Tao has not yet made a name for himself because he has not had enough time to accumulate experience.

If he is exposed to more advanced and sophisticated things, perhaps Han Tao can continue to surprise her.

"Miss, what would you like me to do?"

"If one day you are able to replace the Chai family and become one of the elected members."

I hope your surname can be Chai.

Regardless of whether Han Tao is a member of the Chai family or not, as long as he bears the surname Chai, things will be much easier to handle.

More importantly, if they are fortunate enough to pass the selection by the immortals, it will be a rare opportunity for the Chai family to revitalize itself.

You stood there thinking for a long time, but ultimately chose to reject the other person's offer.

Your body and hair are gifts from your parents. They are alive and well, and you are their only child. You cannot abandon them.

[It seems Chai Yashi had anticipated your choice; she even contacted your parents beforehand and obtained a consent form.]

Even they agreed with this.

Perhaps in their eyes, a better future for their son was more important than their own.

You fell silent once again.

You never expected things to turn out this way.

[Chai Yashi didn't rush you; instead, she gave you a vacation so you could go home yourself.]

Ostensibly, it's to allow you to visit your family, but in reality, Chai Yashi is using this opportunity to have your parents properly persuade you.

[As long as you obtain the necessary qualifications in the future and can change your surname to officially become a member of the Chai family, your parents will naturally be properly cared for.]

Once you've entered the immortal realm, you naturally won't have the opportunity to leave for a short period of time.

Your parents need someone to take care of them, and the Chai family will play that role well.

[Chai Yashi's move hit your weak spot.]

You can't even find many angles to refuse.
