158: The number of places for key training of Xuanniaowei is limited!

“Is that so?”

“It better be!”

“Deputy Envoy He, if there’s nothing else, you may go and attend to your duties.”

Lu Xuan did not delve deeper into the topic; he had already made up his mind.

“Mystic Envoy, there’s one more thing: the Baidao Prefecture Blackbird Guard Martial Arts Competition is scheduled to take place in 10 days.”

“At that time, it will require Mystic Envoy to personally preside over it.”

“The Blackbird Guard Martial Arts Competition is divided into two parts: one is for Human Rank Xuan Bird Guard members under twenty-eight years old.”

“The other is for Blackbird Guard members under twenty years old.”

“Afterward, the top three in each Martial Arts Competition, in addition to receiving generous rewards,”

“will also be designated as key training targets for the Blackbird Guard for the next three years, until the next Martial Arts Competition begins.”

The Baidao Prefecture’s Blackbird Guard Competition is held once every three years.

Its purpose is to select the most outstanding talents and allocate substantial martial arts resources for their cultivation.

Therefore, there are only six precious spots available for this opportunity!

For these spots, countless people are desperate to get in, willing to break their heads for this chance.

“The top three are all key training targets for the Blackbird Guard, are they?”

Upon thinking about the Blackbird Guard’s key training spots, Lu Xuan suddenly remembered that he might need three more spots.

Liang Cheng, Lu Yunqing, Ye Qingxuan!

Especially Ye Qingxuan, Lu Xuan remembered that she seemed to be one of the participants in this year’s Martial Arts Competition for those under twenty.

It just depends on whether she can make it into the top three.

If she can, that would naturally be the best outcome.

Lu Xuan wouldn't have to interfere with her spot.

Of course, if Ye Qingxuan couldn't make it into the top three, Lu Xuan would definitely give her a spot.

After making this decision, Lu Xuan had no intention of concealing it; he spoke directly and frankly with He Yan, stating his thoughts.

“Deputy Envoy He, proceed as you have arranged.”

“By the way, in addition to those six fixed spots, Envoy might add three more spots.”

“How about this: first, add Liang Cheng and Lu Yunqing’s names, designating them as key training targets for the Blackbird Guard.”

“There’s one more spot that will remain pending; Envoy will decide whether to use it after the Martial Arts Competition concludes.”

Three spots!

Mystic Envoy actually intends to designate three more spots!

This… this doesn’t comply with the regulations!

Moreover, aren't three spots a bit too many?

For He Yan, backroom dealings are nothing new; they’re quite normal.

Years ago, his own son had also used connections, and he had shamelessly begged Li Chengfeng for an extra spot.

He managed to squeeze his son in.

However, his son was at least ranked fourth.

Adding one spot was reasonable and legitimate; even if others had opinions, they couldn’t say much.

This Mystic Envoy is different; he wants to add three spots right off the bat.

Moreover, two have already been designated, just as Mystic Envoy mentioned earlier.

His two younger brothers.

He Yan had paid attention to Mystic Envoy’s two younger brothers when Mystic Envoy mentioned them.

One was at the Perfection of the Refining Flesh Realm, which was acceptable and met the conditions for joining the Blackbird Guard.

The other had just reached the Perfection of the Skin Refinement Realm; with such Aptitude, he didn’t even qualify to enter the Blackbird Guard.

Now, Mystic Envoy is unhesitantly designating these two as key training targets for the Blackbird Guard.

He Yan feared that such a decision would cause great dissatisfaction among some people.

If someone were to cause trouble then, it would be a bit problematic.

Especially one person, He Yan got a headache just thinking about his personality: Lao Jiahuo (Old fellow) Yu.

He has the same status as himself, both are Vice Envoys of the Baidao Prefecture Blackbird Guard: Vice Envoy Yu Hong!

Lao Jiahuo (Old fellow) Yu Hong is too domineering, tolerating no imperfections, and he regards the Blackbird Guard’s rules with extreme importance.

Back when He Yan sought an extra spot to get his son in, Lao Jiahuo (Old fellow) Yu Hong had angrily reprimanded him for it.

Ultimately, it was out of consideration for their many years as colleagues that Yu Hong reluctantly chose to ignore it.

If it had been anyone else, Yu Hong would have given no Face at all and might even have come to blows with them.

However, with the strength of this Mystic Envoy, He Yan wasn't worried at all.

He was worried that Lao Jiahuo (Old fellow) Yu might be taught a lesson by Mystic Envoy.

It seems he needs to remind Lao Jiahuo (Old fellow) Yu when he returns.

“Mystic Envoy, the martial arts resources required for the Blackbird Guard’s key training targets are immense.”

“I am concerned that if there are too many training spots, the martial arts resources in the treasury will not be sufficient.”

He Yan dared not directly express his inner thoughts, so he could only subtly discuss the issue of martial arts resource allocation for these key training spots with Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan paid no mind to He Yan’s concern; it was merely a minor issue.

“Regarding the martial arts resources, if they are insufficient, simply apply to the capital in Envoy’s name.”

“……”

He Yan was speechless after hearing Lu Xuan’s words.

This Mystic Envoy truly spoke with reason.

But the problem is, these martial arts resources are not like cabbages on the street.

They won't just be delivered to you because you want them.

The capital has already allocated the martial arts resource quotas for each Baidao Prefecture.

If every Baidao Prefecture were to follow Mystic Envoy’s demands, then they would all follow suit.

Even the Blackbird Guard, which is said to possess the most martial arts resources in the world, could not bear the consumption of so many martial arts resources.

He Yan thought this in his heart, but what he said was very compliant.

“Alright, then everything will be according to Mystic Envoy’s command.”

“I will go down now and add Liang Cheng and Lu Yunqing’s names to the Blackbird Guard’s key training targets.”

After all, even if He Yan had ten thousand guts, he wouldn't dare to go against this young Mystic Envoy.

Anyway, listening to Mystic Envoy, all of this martial arts resource consumption would be handled in his name.

Uh… wait… Lao Li…

It seems this Mystic Envoy’s identity has always been a temporary replacement for Li Chengfeng’s Mystic Envoy position.

In that case, using his Mystic Envoy’s name to take responsibility.

Wouldn’t that be equivalent to using Li Chengfeng’s name to bear all responsibility?

“Mm, very good. You may go first; Envoy still has some matters to attend to.”

Before Vice Envoy He Yan could even react, Lu Xuan’s figure had already vanished.

Before the sound had completely faded, Lu Xuan’s body was already faster than the sound, disappearing from the main hall.
