Chapter 759: Chapter 24: Court Fate Officer and the Chosen Son! Securing the Slot! (16,000)_10

"They want to recruit you, to take advantage of the promotion opportunity and transfer you away in the process,"

"In addition, Bai Mingchuan of the Azure Dragon Army also intends to recruit you into the army, and he has offered a position just below the fourth rank,"

"You should know what it means to be a Water Clan Chief; Bai Mingchuan can truly make you rise five levels at once,"

"What?" Zhao Xing was stunned, "How can this be?"

He had never had any dealings with either Xuantian Academy or Kunyuan Academy, and the same was true for Bai Mingchuan.

How can they just talk about recruiting him?

"Because of your performance in the recent battle for position," Princess You Ruo said.

Upon a moment’s thought, Zhao Xing understood; his battle scenes had probably been seen by the big shots of these two factions, hence their interest in recruiting him.

"I would like to ask for my mentor’s and Elder Mentor’s opinion before making plans," Zhao Xing said.

"Both your mentor and I have no objections," Princess You Ruo said with a smile, "Go wherever you want. As long as you do not give up practicing Ten Thousand Skill Grass Man, your mentor does not care where you are."

Zhao Xing nodded, "In that case, allow me to take some time to consider."

"Hmm, let’s head back to Bixian County; they will come to you,"

"Yes, I shall take my leave,"

...

In the vastness of the East Sea, below a stretch of ocean surface,

three mountain peaks stood tall in the sea, and between these mountains lurked a Crystal Palace.

Inside the palace was a statue that came to life as the battle for positions ended.

Blood Spirit Venerable stepped down from the divine altar, scrutinizing the other statues within the Crystal Palace.

Furnaces burned beneath the statues, and some flames were already weak. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

"Crackle~" Blood Spirit Venerable lit several blood-red incense sticks and burned some paper money that believers had chanted over devoutly, placing them into the incense burner.

The flames grew strong once again.

Suddenly, a letter popped out of the furnace beneath one of the Daoist statues.

"I’m really the one with the hard life, all of you are sleeping while I’m busy with all the errands. When can I take my turn to sleep?"

Blood Spirit Venerable sighed, reaching for the letter.

It contained a freshly made list of five hundred individuals, detailing their origins, strengths, official positions, and backgrounds.

"The five hundred spots selected by Great Zhou have now been confirmed for the five hundred of the Middle Grade Realm from the East Sea side to enter the Dragon Court Ancient Land,"

"Hmm? Zhao Xing? Why does this name sound so familiar?" Blood Spirit Venerable frowned.

"He’s Liu Wanfa’s disciple? The kid from Nanyang County? No, this feeling of familiarity goes beyond that..."

Blood Spirit Venerable felt he was overlooking something.

But he couldn’t put his finger on it.

The more uncertain he was, the more intrigued he became about this person.

"He was banished to the East Sea, and in just ten years, he has grown so much,"

"He has trained the Ten Thousand Skill Avatar to such a profound level, Heavenly Time Technique, Earth Advantage Skill, both at High Order Perfection,"

"Why hasn’t Prince Liang’s Party taken action?"

"Oh, they did."

"Jin Hou General went there once and ended up dying at his hands,"

Blood Spirit Venerable recalled the various events of the past decade.

Upon calculating, he found Zhao Xing’s future cloudy and unclear.

"Snap!" He broke three fingers.

"This feeling, it’s similar to the last time I calculated for Ten Suns Cave Heaven," Blood Spirit Venerable pondered.

He picked up his fingers, chewed them in his mouth, and soon, new fingers grew from the severed joints.

"Could it be that the ant that appeared on the chessboard was him?" The possibility piqued Blood Spirit Venerable’s interest.

"Impossible, what was his realm back then? Even now, it’s not likely he could interfere with these plans..."

"Never mind, he’s still one to be removed..."

"Let’s rank him seventh on the assassination list,"

Blood Spirit Venerable scribbled on the list.

After everything was settled, he threw the list back into the furnace with a gloomy face, "Ah, my lot is hard, even arranging these tasks falls to me."

"My fellow seniors, uncles, when will you wake up?"

Poof~ The flames consumed the letter; nobody responded to Blood Spirit Venerable.

Blood Spirit Venerable shook his head, then hopped back onto the divine altar and turned back into a statue.

...

The building ship returned to Chongming Prefecture, and Zhao Xing was let down because he had to wait there for the reward ceremony.

The trip out was in April, but upon the return, it was already the Start of Autumn of the Jingxin Calendar’s thirtieth year.

Yet, upon arriving at Chongming Prefecture, he immediately felt a premonition as if someone was scheming against him.

"Hmm?" Zhao Xing clutched his chest, furrowing his brow.
