48: Level three peak weapons, ancient weapons!
Third floor staircase.
Governor Cang Yulong’s gaze swept over the mottled wall paint and the dilapidated staircase.
He then glanced at the cabinet that almost filled the entire hallway and the messily placed shoes, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes.
He turned his head and gave a faint look at Mayor Wang Jiannan and Martial Arts Association President Chen Mingyuan, who were following behind him.
“Governor, this is the first time we’ve learned about Student Li Ziyu’s living conditions. The city has already prepared a 400-square-meter villa as part of the reward; it’s move-in ready!”
“Also, regarding Student Li Ziyu’s dispute with his neighbors, I will personally resolve it!”
Before Governor Cang Yulong could speak, Wang Jiannan quickly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied.
He hadn't expected the Governor to come in person; he had only received the news that morning.
Seeing Governor Cang Yulong nod slightly, Wang Jiannan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Mingyuan also secretly wiped away some cold sweat.
The group walked to Li Ziyu’s door, knocked lightly, and the door was slowly opened by Li Ziyu.
Inside the room.
Li Ziyu held a kettle and poured a glass of plain water for Governor Cang Yulong and Chen Mingyuan, who were sitting on the sofa.
He didn't know either of these two people.
However, when he opened the door just now, he had seen the other person in a white shirt on TV.
He knew that was the Mayor of Xu Jiang City.
Now the Mayor was waiting outside the door and wasn't even qualified to come in.
From this, it was clear that the two people sitting on the sofa must have very significant backgrounds.
Governor Cang Yulong took the water cup and took a sip.
Then he placed it on the coffee table and, with a smile, said to Li Ziyu:
“Hello, Student Li Ziyu, allow me to introduce myself. I am Governor Cang Yulong, the Governor of Su Province, and next to me is the President of the Martial Arts Association of Xu Jiang City.”
“Hello, young friend, I am Chen Mingyuan, the President of the Xu Jiang City Martial Arts Association.”
As Governor Cang Yulong introduced, Chen Mingyuan smiled and nodded to Li Ziyu.
Li Ziyu was stunned upon hearing this.
Good heavens!
No wonder he felt that the person in front of him had such a powerful aura, giving him an extremely dangerous feeling all over.
No wonder even the Mayor of Xu Jiang City could only wait outside the door.
It turned out to be the Governor of Su Province himself.
A provincial governor.
That was a real power figure who genuinely controlled the political power of an entire province, a high-ranking official.
It was no exaggeration to say.
In Su Province, if the Governor stomped his foot, the entire Su Province would shake three times.
Moreover, Great Xia had a regulation that one must be a Level 6 Martial Artists to be qualified to serve as a provincial governor.
In other words, the burly middle-aged man currently sitting on his sofa was a genuine Level 6 Martial Artists!
A hint of solemnity flashed in Li Ziyu’s eyes.
“Young friend, I presume you already know the purpose of my visit. I never imagined that our Su Province would produce a National Martial Arts Exam Top Scorer.”
Governor Cang Yulong spoke with emotion. While Li Ziyu was observing him, he was also observing Li Ziyu.
A hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes.
He thought to himself, 'As expected of the National Martial Arts Exam Top Scorer.'
This surging, flame-like vital energy was far beyond what he possessed at this age.
Furthermore, when the other party saw him, there was no sign of apprehension or nervousness on his face.
This kind of composure was also extraordinary.
He was a prodigy.
Governor Cang Yulong had made his decision.
“National First?”
Hearing Governor Cang Yulong’s words, Li Ziyu was slightly surprised.
He had been busy sleeping yesterday and hadn't had time to check the rankings.
Although he had a psychological expectation of a high ranking, he hadn't expected the result to be national first.
To be honest, it was a bit beyond his expectations.
However, after thinking about it, Li Ziyu felt at ease.
He had killed so many fierce beasts in the Martial Exam testing ground, and he had single-handedly taken on that Level 2 fierce beast.
Coupled with his solidified vital energy and three peak-level Battle Skills.
Thinking about it, achieving first place in the National Martial Exam was within expectations.
“I am here on behalf of Su Province to bestow awards upon Student Li Ziyu.”
Governor Cang Yulong glanced at Chen Mingyuan beside him.
Chen Mingyuan understood and quickly took out several items from his person.
Governor Cang Yulong took them and placed them on the table.
Li Ziyu looked over.
There was a red property deed, a bank card, and a cool-looking silver long blade.
At this moment, Governor Cang Yulong introduced:
“A detached villa in Xu Jiang City’s Guanjing Mountain Villa.”
“Five million great xia currency.”
“And a Level 3 asma alloy weapon that I am personally gifting to you.”
When he mentioned the Level 3 asma alloy weapon, Li Ziyu’s eyebrows instinctively raised.
Governor Cang Yulong noticed this detail and, thinking Li Ziyu had other demands, said with a smile:
“You can choose the style of the weapon, or if you have a preferred weapon, you can send it to me, and I’ll have someone customize it for you.”
“No, it’s just that I find the weapon I currently have quite handy.”
Li Ziyu looked at the items on the coffee table, a little emotional.
What a grand gesture.
He knew Guanjing Mountain Villa; it was a famous wealthy area in Xu Jiang City.
All those living there were high-ranking officials and nobles.
Although Xu Jiang City wasn't a major city and housing prices weren't high.
But for a villa in a quiet location like Guanjing Mountain Villa, nestled by mountains and water.
A detached villa would be worth at least over ten million.
They just gave it to him.
And a Level 3 asma alloy weapon.
To purchase weapons above Level 3, one had to go to major cities like Modu or Jingdu; he had never seen them sold in Zhenwu Pavilion.
However, he knew the price, which was also over ten million!
Compared to the property and the weapon, the five million great xia currency, which he once thought he could never earn in his lifetime, seemed insignificant.
However, Li Ziyu felt that the Battle Skill he was currently using was quite handy; it was not only durable but also very sharp.
He vaguely had a feeling that it was getting better with use.
When he used this weapon to cut down a Level 2 fierce beast, it didn't let him down.
“Oh? I wonder what level the weapon young friend is currently using is. If young friend doesn't need it, then I will exchange the weapon for a Battle Skill as a gift to you.”
Governor Cang Yulong said.
“I don’t know the exact level. It’s inside the room; I’ll go get it.”
Li Ziyu told the two of them, turned, walked back into the room, and picked up the long blade placed by the bedside.
To be honest, he was also quite curious about the level of this weapon.
When he bought it, Tang Xuan said it was an ordinary weapon.
But after so many days of use, Li Ziyu felt that this weapon was extraordinary.
Most importantly.
When he first bought this weapon, the blade was still rusty.
As he killed so many fierce beasts, the blade actually looked newer, and the rust on the blade seemed to have fallen off a bit.
Li Ziyu glanced at the blade, then took it out of the room and handed it to Governor Cang Yulong.
“Governor Cang, this is my blade.”
“Hmm… let me see.”
Governor Cang Yulong took it with one hand and examined it carefully in front of him.
Li Ziyu noticed that Governor Cang Yulong’s brows furrowed slightly when he saw the blade.
A moment later, Governor Cang Yulong put down the blade, looked up at Li Ziyu with a solemn expression, and said:
“Student Li Ziyu, you truly don’t need to change your weapon. This blade of yours is a Level 3 peak-level weapon!”
“And it’s a rare ancient weapon!”
