86: Wang Jun's proposal
Young Master Lu also looked up at Due at this moment.
Due's face held a clear smile, his gaze burning, seemingly conveying some message.
Even Young Master Lu understood Due's intentions clearly.
Choose Wang Jun and beat him until his own mother wouldn't recognize him!
Oh, his mother was gone.
Then beat him until his own father wouldn't recognize him!
Young Master Lu's lips curved into an arc, then he closed his eyes, silently waiting for the grouping.
Due's gaze shifted, "Do you all have any other questions?"
The others had no more questions; since the grouping was random, they could only pray to be grouped with Young Master Lu!
Seeing that no one had questions, Due extended his left hand, and streaks of white light fell before everyone.
Young Master Lu opened his eyes and looked at the white light in front of him. The white light diffused, transforming into a display screen. Blue light shot out from the screen, scanning Young Master Lu's face up and down.
Then, a gentle voice sounded.
"Applicant identity confirmed: Gengsi Class, Young Master Lu!"
"Gengsi Class Young Master Lu, please submit your second-round chip!"
As the gentle voice faded, a card slot appeared next to the display screen, perfectly sized for a chip.
It was the same for everyone else.
Everyone understood that this was to submit the second-round chip that was attached to their weapon.
Young Master Lu removed the chip from his sword and placed it into the card slot.
"Chip has been recovered! Gengsi Class Young Master Lu's assessment results have been uploaded! Gengsi Class Young Master Lu, please wait for the results to be announced!"
After placing their chips, everyone else received this message.
A few seconds later, a voice came from the display screen again, "Gengsi Class Young Master Lu, please place your right index finger on the designated area. We are now preparing for random grouping!"
As the words fell, the display screen changed, and a blank area appeared in the lower right corner.
Young Master Lu placed his right index finger in the designated area.
"Gengsi Class Young Master Lu, please do not remove your finger and wait for the others!"
Everyone in the square received this prompt on their display screens, and before long, they all placed their fingers in the area.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly!
On the display screens in front of everyone, nine equal areas appeared. One area's portrait was locked, showing the person themselves on the display screen.
In the other eight areas, personnel avatars flashed continuously!
"Random grouping, five-second countdown!"
A gentle female voice suddenly sounded, and the personnel avatars on the display screens flashed continuously, making everyone's hearts pound.
Because in those few short seconds, they all clearly saw Young Master Lu's avatar appear on their display screens for an instant!
"Five!"
"Four!"
"Three!"
"Two!"
"One!"
"Grouping complete!"
The countdown ended, and the avatars on the display screens in front of everyone were instantly locked!
Young Master Lu's gaze swept across, and he saw Fu Liang's face. As for the other seven people, he only recognized them vaguely.
It seemed that in this round, among the few people, only Fu Liang was grouped with him.
"Holy crap!"
Fu Liang yelled, "I just bet fifty years of being single with the heavens to be grouped with Young Master Lu! I knew I should have bet fewer years! That's fifty years! Am I really going to be a bachelor for fifty years?!"
Among the crowd, several joyful voices also sounded. These people were all grouped with Young Master Lu!
Following Young Master Lu, in their eyes, they had already won more than half the battle!
"Grouping is complete. Now, you yourselves choose a captain to select the examiner for the challenge!"
Due's voice came from above.
The crowd began to move, and Fu Liang and the others consciously walked to Young Master Lu's side.
None of them spoke, clearly, Young Master Lu as captain was an unquestionable matter.
The captains of the other teams were also quickly chosen.
Due glanced around, just about to speak, when Wang Jun's voice suddenly came from the side.
"Young Master Lu, do you dare to choose me?!"
Being publicly named, everyone's gaze fell on Young Master Lu.
Wang Jun sneered, "If you dare to challenge this Young Master, this Young Master will suppress his Realm to Early Stage Fourth Rank, the same as yours! Within five minutes, if you can make this Young Master retreat one step, then everyone in your group passes!"
These words made the others in the same group very excited!
Although they were all only Third Rank cultivation, Young Master Lu and Fu Liang were both Fourth Rank!
As long as they didn't drag them down too much and listened carefully to instructions, there was a very high chance they could make Wang Jun retreat one step!
Then everyone in their group would pass the third round of assessment!
Everyone looked at Young Master Lu, but no one dared to speak.
Because they knew very well that if they wanted to be carried by a big shot, they should lie down obediently, shut their mouths, listen carefully to the big shot, and leave all choices to the big shot! Never be clever!
Young Master Lu's gaze swept upwards, meeting Wang Jun's, and he sneered, "Can your words serve as the final evaluation standard?"
The fiery gazes of the others suddenly dimmed a bit.
That's right, can Wang Jun's words be trusted?
What if he says it's all good now, but after the assessment, it doesn't count anymore!
Wang Jun's expression hardened, "Why wouldn't it count?!"
Young Master Lu smiled and shook his head, "You're not the chief examiner. What do your standards count for? They're just your own judgment standards. Ask around, does anyone recognize them?"
Wang Jun immediately looked at Wang Ruzhu, "Elder Sister, the documents above do not specify concrete assessment standards. According to what I just said, wouldn't it be a better judgment? As long as they make me retreat one step, it's enough to prove their ability and cooperation!"
In just a short time, Wang Jun had already found excuses for the series of proposals he had just made.
Wang Ruzhu frowned, thought for a moment, and found it very reasonable.
According to the previous rules, it was indeed difficult to have a clear standard. Now, this way, it would be more intuitive to see everyone's abilities.
Wang Ruzhu bowed to Huan Shen and said, "Lord Huan Shen, I think my younger brother makes a lot of sense. How about we use this standard for judgment?"
Huan Shen was not a fool; she understood what Wang Jun and Young Master Lu were thinking in the few words just exchanged.
Wang Jun seemed to be making concessions to entice Young Master Lu to challenge him, but in reality, he wanted to fight Young Master Lu, and then severely injure, or even kill, Young Master Lu during the assessment!
And Young Master Lu, he knew very well what Wang Jun wanted to do, but his words were clearly meant to facilitate this matter.
Huan Shen was also a little confused. Even if he suppressed his cultivation to Early Stage Fourth Rank, Wang Jun was still a Fifth Rank cultivator after all.
Whether it was Martial Skill or understanding of cultivation, Wang Jun was one step deeper.
This kind of gap could not be compared by being in the same Realm, nor could it be compensated by Young Master Lu's current methods like 'Slumbering Thunder'.
Huan Shen was also a little curious, how exactly would Young Master Lu win?
Everyone was waiting for Huan Shen's words, after all, he was the true chief examiner!
"Alright, let's go with what Wang Jun said!"
Huan Shen suddenly spoke, settling the matter!
