  Chapter 169 Under the storm, the team competition begins

  The violent wind and rain poured down, reducing the number of ordinary people watching the assessment by more than half, but the officials and landlords from foreign counties, as well as the local poor and wealthy households in Jujiang City, counted as one, and everyone who could come came.

  This assessment and the allocation of the resident are related to the fate of the command army, and even more determine their fate.

  Whether they are seeking protection or flattery, they have to witness the final outcome with their own eyes.

  At the same time, last night, officials from the five major counties all came to the entrance of the Vajra Martial Arts Hall, wanting to meet with Zhong Chao and talk about the treatment of being stationed in the counties.

  Besides, those who came over have said that as long as Zhong Chao is willing to go, the treatment is easy. But for this, Zhong Chao refused all of them, and he didn't even meet each other.

  Even so, these people haven't given up yet, and now they are eagerly waiting for Zhong Chao's arrival.

  Qingshui City's county magistrate, Zhai Qi, even braved the downpour and waited at the intersection.

  Although someone nearby held an oiled paper umbrella for him, under the storm, the paper umbrella did not play any role at all, and Zhai Qi's old body was already mostly wet.

  As for Zhong Chao, he hasn't arrived for a long time.

  Under such circumstances, his son couldn't bear it and persuaded his father.

   "Father, it's raining heavily outside, you go into the house and take a rest, I'm waiting here."

   "No, we must let Zhong Chao see the sincerity of our Qingshui County."

   "But if you stay like this, your body will be the first to be unable to hold on... Besides, we don't have to look for him, it's no different for other people..."

  Before he finished speaking, his father beat him several times with a cane.

   "No difference, I call you no difference."

   "If it's really no different from other people, the giants of Jujiang City will bring all the wind and rain to snipe him! You thought it would be effortless."

The continuous beating made the county magistrate gasp for breath. After a while, he didn't hit his son again, but said earnestly: "Yi'er, you have to remember that there will be a big change in this world, and it will still break the sky." That kind. In this kind of upheaval, only strength can protect the peace of one side. Our Qingshui County is too weak. If we want the fathers and villagers to survive this disaster safely, we must find a strong person. Zhong Chao is not The strongest one is the most talented one, and the only one we can invite over."

   "So, even if I fight this old bone, I will invite him over."

  There are always smart people among human beings, and there are even more people who are sincere for the people. Zhai Qi's ambition is not high, but he really cares about the folks in Qingshui County. Therefore, he wants to see Zhong Chao regardless of his health.

   Unfortunately, in the end, it didn't work out.

  He waited for several hours until the assessment time came before Zhong Chao walked out of the rain.

   This scene of arriving in time has surprised many people, and made Zhai Qi unable to stop it.

   "It's a pity... I still want to meet in advance."

   "You came so late? Was it delayed by something?"

   "I think they are expressing dissatisfaction with the actions of the Hao family."

   "It's possible. But the powerful family is powerful, so what if they are dissatisfied."

"really…"

  Ordinary people are sighing about Zhong Chao's situation, they still hope that Zhong Chao can be stationed in Jujiang City.

   After all, Zhong Chao is at the bottom of his body, and they feel that such a Zhong Chao will speak for themselves.

  But the big money of the wealthy family let them know that all this is a luxury.

  On the other side, Chongshan Jian Zongrong and others from the same hundred households, some were excited, while others felt embarrassed.

  Tianjiao warriors are still a little arrogant, they want to defeat Zhong Chao with their own strength, rather than borrowing external force like now.

   It's just that no matter what they think, they will not release water for the sake of the family, and therefore, they feel that Zhong Chao will lose this time.

   With this thought in mind, the lottery began.

  The rules for the assessment of the Command Army team are very simple. Seven teams will draw lots, and then they will face off in pairs, with one team having a bye.

  The loser will be eliminated directly, and the three victorious teams plus the one left by good luck will be four teams, and then continue to draw lots until the final champion is determined.

  Finally, the champion chooses the defense area, the second runner-up, and the third runner-up again.

  In a way, if you are lucky in signing, you can also get a good result.

  But Zhong Chao's luck in this aspect was not satisfactory. The first time he drew was Zhongshan Jian Zongrong.

   This is one of the current champion candidates.

   It was Cang Youqing, who got the lottery on the stage for the first time—a bye.

   Returning to the team with the signed sign, looking at the general flag under his flag, Zhong Chao's first sentence made them overwhelmed.

   "One, two, three... there are actually 9 general flags, I thought I would be a polished commander."

   "..."

   "..."

   "..."

   This sentence silenced the general flag who joined Zhong Chao's team, and for the first time, they regretted their choice.

  ‘This team really has a future. '

  Finally, it was Xi Kang who stood up and smoothed things over.

   "Hehe, Master Baihu is making a good joke... By the way, sir, do you have any instructions for this battle?"

   "Instructions, yes, I will tell you to rush later, and you rush again, don't make it ahead of time."

   "..."

   "..."

  When he said this, even Xi Kang couldn't bear it, and didn't know what to say.

   And Zhong Chao's general banner has only one idea.

  —This team pill, quit now, is there still time!

   It's no wonder they think so, it's because the current situation is not good for them.

  First, the storm suppressed Zhong Chao's strength.

  Secondly, the other hundreds of households all have family members who occupy important positions and cooperate with each other tacitly. On the other hand, on Zhong Chao's side, it was a mess, and the soldiers didn't know the generals, and the generals didn't know the soldiers.

  In this extremely unfavorable situation, Zhong Chao, the leader, not only did not arrange tactics, but prepared to rush over in a team battle. No wonder they were not desperate.

  Because when Zhong Chao said this, he didn't hide it at all.

  Not only his subordinates heard what he said, but the rest of the team also heard it—warriors have very strong ears.

   Discovering that Zhong Chao had given up on himself, several teams breathed a sigh of relief.

  ‘This time, it’s finally stable. '

  On the high platform, the head of a wealthy family also laughed, and said to Mr. Ji who was on the main seat:

   "This little guy is talented, but he's too restless. It's a good thing for him to put him down for a few years of experience."

   "Yes, young people should guard against arrogance and arrogance, and practice more."

   "How can you see a rainbow if you don't experience wind and rain. It's a blessing to suffer."

  Hearing these words, Mr. Ji showed a trace of displeasure on his face. He also came from the bottom class and experienced countless hardships in the process of growing up.

   What he hates the most is some old guys who have stolen high positions, relying on their elders to sell their elders, and suppress Tianjiao in the name of so-called experience.

  He has also been suppressed before, and now, these old guys bring up this matter again, which naturally makes him unhappy.

  But soon, he thought of something, and the sullenness on his face turned into a slight smile:

   "It's a blessing to suffer. You are right, young man, you really should go down to practice."

   "???"

   Mr. Ji's unexpected answer made the patriarchs of the Hao clan startled.

   "Aren't you angry at all? Did an accident happen?"

   "Impossible, Zhong Chao's space to play has been locked by us."

Have no idea.

  No matter how they thought about it, they couldn't find the point where Zhong Chao could come back.

  But Mr. Ji's expression made them understand that things are not that simple.

   Moreover, there is not much time for them to think, the team competition assessment has already begun.

  And the first game is Zhong Chao vs. Zhongshan Jian Zongrong!

  Seeing that the two of them were leading the team on stage, Mr. Ji smiled and spoke to the Patriarch of the Zong Family, who was also Grandpa Zong Rong.

   "I remember just now that you said that young people should guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and go to the lower levels to practice for a few more years. I will remember this sentence and will implement it properly."

   After finishing speaking, Mr. Ji seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly realized:

   "By the way, there is something I forgot to tell you. I gave Zhong Chao a piece of Xueyin, and he refined it...Xueyin is called Kui Niu."

   "?!"
