51: The second most important person in the base's military! Pay attention to Su Jun!
Kaizhou City Martial Arts Association.
The conference room was filled with high-ranking officials from Kaizhou City's government.
There was the head of the Public Security Bureau.
There was the head of the Education Department.
And there was the head of the mysterious Dark Guard Bureau...
All the high-ranking officials who held a name in Kaizhou City were seated around the conference table.
At the very top, two people were seated.
On the left was Guan Ping, the President of the Kaizhou City Martial Arts Association and also the strongest person in Kaizhou City.
On the right was Wang Jian, the second-in-command of the Jianglin Base military.
Wang Jian's appearance surprised many high-ranking officials of Kaizhou City.
"The Wu Exam for Jianglin Base is in a few days.
During this period, you must send more personnel to prevent cults and spies from disrupting the stability of our Kaizhou City."
Guan Ping instructed with a serious expression.
Every time the Great Xia Country's Wu Exam took place,
cults and spies from other countries would come out to cause trouble.
They even assassinated some highly potential geniuses.
Before Jiangcang Base was destroyed by the beast tide last year, six geniuses were poisoned during the Wu Exam.
Guan Ping did not want such a tragedy to happen in Kaizhou City.
"Our Public Security Bureau has already sent additional personnel to guard all the vital routes in and out of Kaizhou City."
"The Dark Guard Bureau is secretly monitoring all suspicious personnel closely."
Guan Ping nodded secretly upon hearing that these two major bureaus had already deployed in advance.
"The arrangement of the Ruins No. 13 examination hall will be completed by your two major bureaus in cooperation with the military."
Jianglin Base divided the center of the Ruins into thirteen large sections.
Kaizhou City's Wu Exam base was in Ruins No. 13.
Everyone was somewhat surprised upon hearing Guan Ping's words.
Could it be that a high-ranking official from Jianglin Base, ranked among the top, was going to attend Kaizhou City's Wu Exam?
But Kaizhou City was only at the bottom of the thirteen cities in Jianglin Base.
How could such a high-ranking official come over?
But if not?
This second-in-command of the Jianglin Base military would not have personally attended this meeting.
Such an important military figure coming...
Could the high-ranking official attending Kaizhou City's Wu Exam be that person?
Everyone was immediately startled by their own thought!
How could their Kaizhou City be so virtuous as to have that person personally attend?
"Everyone, you've worked hard."
Although Wang Jian held a high position, he had no official airs whatsoever.
"Certainly, certainly."
"Assisting Officer Wang is our duty."
The heads of the two major bureaus quickly nodded.
"Officer Wang, I heard that a Tier 3 exotic beast, a Three-tailed Hippopotamus, appeared deep in the Ruins, and it escaped?"
Guan Ping frowned subtly when he mentioned this matter.
"That's right, but you don't need to worry.
The Three-tailed Hippopotamus has been severely injured by Gu Yue.
At most, it can only exert the strength of a Peak Martial Master.
I don't think it will show up again.
As long as the students of your Kaizhou City do not go near the deep areas when training in the Ruins, they will be fine."
Wang Jian motioned for everyone not to worry.
Guan Ping continued to ask, "Are there any other powerful exotic beasts skilled at concealing themselves, already lurking within the Ruins?"
Among exotic beasts, there are those that are fast, those that are strong...
And at the same time, there are powerful exotic beasts skilled at blending their forms with their surroundings.
Wang Jian paused, "We will investigate as soon as possible.
But you also know that the main forces of the military are currently stationed by the river, preventing the arrival of a beast tide."
Compared to the Wu Exam, the safety of Jianglin Base was certainly more important.
Currently, the military's manpower was also a bit stretched.
Guan Ping frowned.
But he did not continue discussing this topic.
After giving a few instructions to the high-ranking officials of Kaizhou City, Guan Ping announced the end of the meeting.
The meeting adjourned.
Shen Qiang, the office director, approached Wang Jian with a fawning expression.
"Officer Wang, I am Shen Qiang?"
"Shen Qiang? No impression."
Wang Jian shook his head calmly.
Shen Qiang, as an office director, did not have a military background, so Wang Jian had no impression of him.
Shen Qiang was a bit embarrassed.
He didn't expect to be rebuffed by Wang Jian.
"Officer Wang, this is a small token of my appreciation.
Could you disclose which high-ranking leader will be attending Kaizhou City's Wu Exam?"
Shen Qiang secretly slipped a gift into Wang Jian's hand.
He wanted to use this opportunity to learn the person's identity, so he could prepare a gift and curry favor with them.
Seeing this, Wang Jian's expression immediately turned cold.
"Shen Qiang!
According to military law, probing military intelligence can result in immediate execution!"
As he spoke, a terrifying aura belonging to an Intermediate Martial General pressed down on Shen Qiang, almost making him kneel directly.
His eyes were filled with fear.
Shen Qiang was only at the Intermediate Martial Grandmaster realm.
But Wang Jian was an Intermediate Martial General.
The two were a full major realm apart!
It could be described as the difference between heaven and earth!
Shen Qiang had not expected Wang Jian to be so principled.
He regretted inwardly that he shouldn't have tried to test the bottom line of such a person.
Everyone else was also startled.
The high-ranking military officials of Jianglin Base were indeed all ruthless individuals.
Guan Ping glanced at Shen Qiang, not intending to intervene.
Shen Qiang was too opportunistic.
It served him right to learn a lesson.
"Shen Qiang! If there's a next time, kill without mercy!"
Wang Jian snorted coldly, then turned and left.
Just then, two people walked towards them; it was Gu Ying and Su Jun.
Su Jun had sent a message to Guan Ping on the way, and Guan Ping had instructed his subordinates to let Su Jun in directly when he arrived.
Gu Ying was a bit bored, so after revealing her identity, she followed him in.
"Officer Wang!"
Gu Ying had been clinging to Su Jun with a charming expression just moments before.
But upon seeing Wang Jian, she immediately straightened up and saluted respectfully.
Clearly, she held awe for this second-in-command of the Jianglin Base military.
Wang Jian nodded slightly.
Then he looked at Su Jun, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
A smile quickly appeared on his serious face.
"Su Jun?"
"Hello, Officer Wang."
"The Wu Exam is imminent, work hard!"
Wang Jian patted Su Jun's shoulder and said with a grin.
Then he strode away from the Martial Arts Association.
Huh?
Officer Wang knows me?
Su Jun was a little surprised.
However, after thinking about Guan Ping mentioning earlier that he would report his information to General Luo Chen,
and after obtaining the Quasi-Tier 3 Martial Skill and A-grade weapon from Zhao Song today, he understood.
It must be General Luo Chen who told Wang Jian about him.
Among those present, besides Gu Ying and Guan Ping,
Shen Qiang and other high-ranking officials of Kaizhou City were all astonished.
What had they just seen?
Wang Jian, who held a high position and was extremely principled, actually showed a friendly side to Su Jun?
What was Su Jun's background?
The high-ranking officials of Kaizhou City showed thoughtful expressions.
The most shocked was none other than Shen Qiang.
Others might not know Su Jun's identity as a poor student from Sixth High School.
But he knew it perfectly clear.
Why could Su Jun, this poor student, make Wang Jian greet him with a smile?
Could the identity of a poor student just be a cover for Su Jun's true identity?
Was his true identity the descendant of a high-ranking official from Jianglin Base?
No!
Even if he were the descendant of a high-ranking official from Jianglin Base, it wouldn't make Wang Jian lower his stance like this.
Even Gu Ying, a descendant of the ancient Gu Family from Magic City Base, didn't make Wang Jian greet her with a smile.
Su Jun's background is not simple!
Shen Qiang suddenly felt a little regretful.
His daughter Shen Wei breaking up with Su Jun might be the biggest mistake she had ever made in her life.
If Shen Wei hadn't broken up with Su Jun?
Perhaps he could have relied on Su Jun to climb up to Wang Jian, this big tree, and thus strengthen the Shen Family.
"Su Jun, Wei Wei always talks about you in front of me, saying how excellent you are, and she always thinks about getting back together.
How about coming to our Shen Family for dinner tonight?"
Shen Qiang came up to Su Jun, smiling as he extended the invitation.
What?
Praising me as excellent?
And wanting to get back together with me?
Su Jun was stunned, secretly rolling his eyes.
Shen Qiang clearly said this because he felt that he had an extraordinary background.
As expected, some people get older.
And their skin gets thicker and thicker.
"Director Shen, how can you lie through your teeth?
I heard that your daughter Shen Wei chose to break up with Su Jun because his qi and blood were low.
Why suddenly want to get back together?"
Gu Ying looked at Shen Qiang with an innocent expression and asked.
