Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The various great families knew that if they could show their talents in the martial arts examination and were chosen by important figures, they would have some achievements in the martial arts path in the future and become a warlord level figure.
In Preston, he would practically be a person who could do whatever he wanted.
Even the Preston main team and the dark division would give the person some
face.
After all, martial artists still respected the strong!
Warlord level martial artists in Preston were definitely big shots.
There were hundreds of warlords in the Preston main team base.
For Preston alone, this many warlords was already quite a lot.
Martial artists were not everywhere.
To be able to organize a decent selection like this was already very rare.
In order to prevent the special operation teams from cheating, the 24 divisions would send someone to preside over it.
In the Preston main team base, there was a warlord level martial artist sent by the capital.
To many small martial artists, a warlord level was definitely a big shot.
Miranda Stern led Ginny to the entrance of the Preston main team. Hundreds of people were already here.
The non-staff members of the Preston main team were called back to maintain order.
There were also more than a hundred official members gathered in the group.
What were they guarding against?
It was to guard against a martial artist riot!
With so many martial artists gathered at the entrance of the Preston main team to partic.i.p.ate in the selection, if anyone was dissatisfied and did something extreme, the members of the Preston main team must have the strength to suppress everyone.
Ginny waved her little hands and shouted in a childish voice, “Big Brother Logan!”
“Ginny!”
Things were hectic today, so he had been transferred back to the Preston main team.
Instantly.
“Luca, maintain order and open up a new path. Let Ginny in. It’s not safe outside!”
“Understood!”
Luca understood Logan Hall’s concern.
The hundreds of people who came today were mostly martial artists, a mix of good and bad.
If someone hurt Ginny, how would the Preston main team explain it to Braydon?
Luca waved his hand, and the thirty-six official members of the Preston main team opened the door. The swords on their waists were unsheathed, and they said coldly, “Silence!”
Swoosh!
The noisy crowd instantly fell silent.
When facing the people from the Preston main team, the martial artists outside were filled with respect.
“Ginny, why are you here?” Logan asked in a gentle voice.
“My brother wants me to partic.i.p.ate in the martial arts examination!” Ginny blinked and mustered up her courage to answer Logan.
As a result, the surrounding adults looked at each other.
Many people were surprised.
Because the cute little girl was very young.
Looking at her small stature, she was no older than twelve.
“Child, you’re so young, yet you’re already here to partic.i.p.ate in the martial arts examination?”
“The martial arts exam is not a child’s play. Girl, you’re too young!”
Some people spoke one after another.
They all felt that Ginny was too young!
A fat auntie asked curiously, “Kid, who are your guardians? They sent you here so confidently. If you were to get hurt during the martial arts examination, your adult would be heartbroken!”
“Enough chit-chat, return to the crowd and wait in line!” Logan frowned slightly and glanced at the gossiping crowd.
No one dared to tease Ginny after that.
“The eight big inst.i.tutions welcome children of this age, so there’s no need for you to worry!” Miranda said softly.
“Eight big inst.i.tutions?”
The old man was shocked.
“Are you guys going to the eight big inst.i.tutions for the martial arts examination?” the fat auntie asked suspiciously. “Do you know how strict the admission standards are?”
That was why these people were suspicious.
It was because the eight inst.i.tutions, as the cradle of young martial artists, had extremely strict admission standards.
One was the age limit.
The other was the warlord level standard.
These two conditions combined would make one a warlord before the age of sixteen.
How could there be such a genius in Preston?
Miranda was very cultured. She gave a gentle smile, her fair little hand still holding Ginny’s hand, protecting the little girl at all times.
Until a man in a suit came forward and saw Miranda.
He hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, “Mountain Division’s Layne Geller greets War G.o.d Miranda!”
The greeting shocked everyone.
This young girl with delicate features was actually a War G.o.d?
In the past few decades, no War G.o.d had appeared in Preston!
But today, a War G.o.d had actually made an appearance!
The faces of the old man, the fat auntie, and the others who were gossiping suddenly turned pale.
To them, a War G.o.d was a legendary figure!
Layne was a member of the 24 divisions in the capital and was in charge of the martial arts examination Preston.
He turned around and said coldly, “You’re all blind. War G.o.d Miranda is from the Sanguine Division. She’s a genius student who graduated from the
Sanguine Youth Inst.i.tution!”
Layne was not very well-informed.
This was because Miranda had been conferred the t.i.tle of marquis half a year ago.
However, she did not correct him.
“Greetings, War G.o.d Miranda!” The old man and the others bowed and cupped their hands in fear.
“It’s okay. There’s no need to be nervous. I hope that there will be more geniuses in Preston. As long as they meet the admission criteria of the
Sanguine Youth Inst.i.tution, I can be your sponsor.”
Miranda did not put on any airs. Instead, she appeared approachable.
These words made the old man and the others laugh bitterly.
If any of their juniors met the requirements, they would have gone straight to the provincial capital.
Ginny obediently followed Miranda. She turned to look behind the crowd and could not help but exclaim in surprise, “Sister Heather, Grandma!” Ginny’s mother, Qahira Sage, was Grandma Sage’s daughter.
That was why Ginny called the old lady grandma!
Swoosh!
The crowd turned around in unison.
When many people saw Grandma Sage, they all made way for her with respectful gazes.
Everyone was no stranger to the matriarch of the Sage family, one of the seven great families of Preston!
“Ginny, why are you here too?” Grandma Sage asked lovingly. “Grandma, I want to take the martial arts examination too!” Ginny replied.
Logan respectfully said, “Madam Sage! Quick, please come in!”
The matriarch had just entered.
However, Layne frowned and said in a low voice, “Logan, the martial arts examination hasn’t started yet. Unauthorized personnel are prohibited from entering to prevent any trouble. Have you forgotten what I told you?”
“General Geller, the matriarch is not an outsider!”
Logan frowned, his att.i.tude neither servile nor overbearing.
He, Logan, was a person by Braydon’s side, so he knew this old woman very well.
Even the minister of the Mountain Division could not afford to offend this old lady.
There was a person behind the old lady. It was Braydon!
Moreover, Heather was also here.
Layne’s face turned dark. He did not expect that a small member of the Preston main team would dare to refute his words.
He said, “The martial arts examination is of great importance. If anything happens, you, a small member of the Preston main team, can’t bear the responsibility. Even the leader of the Preston main team, Steve Xavier, can’t bear the responsibility!”
He was determined not to let the old lady in.
At this moment.
In the distance, there was someone who was walking in the air. His clothes were as white as snow, and he stood on the tree crown with his hands behind his back. He smiled brightly.. “If Logan can’t bear the responsibility, I wonder if I, Braydon Neal, can!”
