1473 Chapter 1542: Seer’s quota!
The atmosphere in the hall became awkward. Even the old man sitting at the head of the table couldn’t help but twitch his lips... ...
The second brother had been wasted for so many years, and his temper hadn’t changed at all... ...
Everyone, including the elders of the collateral families, also had awkward expressions on their faces. After all, they were also the ones who licked their faces.
“You...”. “...”. “How can you say that about second brother?”Fourth Elder pointed at the other party with a trembling finger. “Back then, for your son, Seer, how much did the clan pay? “Oh, now that you’ve achieved some results, you don’t recognize me anymore? “You’re still licking your face? I’ll tell you today! “Everyone here has the right to ask for a spot from you!”
These words immediately made everyone’s backs straighten a little. Thinking about it, it made sense. Back then, for the sake of second brother’s seer, the clan had been so frugal. Now that they wanted a spot, why were they licking their faces?
“Well... <per_0> . Zhuxing did not want to sell it at all. “Seer moving into the Empyrean God realm is a policy that everyone has agreed upon. The backdoor budget error should not be blamed on my family. After all, if Seer’s aptitude had been that of a warrior back then, it would have been much safer. You all have always felt that your family had been wronged, but my son had originally had a bright future and had taken a gamble with it. is he not wronged?”
“What’s more, after so many years, my husband and I have left our family affairs to work outside. For over a hundred thousand years, every bit of our savings has been handed over to our family. We even directly sold the genes that we condensed. Together, the sum is enough to pay off seer’s tuition fees back then. Even if we owe you, we have already paid it off. Don’t tell me that you are planning to use your old debt to eat my family for the rest of your life?”
“You...”the fifth elder was so angry that his face turned red, and the faces of the people around him also turned ugly.
However, for a moment, he could not say anything because what the other party said was right. The debts of the second branch had actually been paid back a long time ago. The reason why the old debts were still being talked about all these years was mainly because there were people behind it, and the younger generation did not know.., the older generation was very clear in their hearts.
Fifth Elder was about to continue when the other party waved his hand and said, “Fifth Elder, you don’t have to say anymore. You said that the heaven-cleaving quota is the same. If you don’t like it, you can just leave!”
Fifth Elder’s entire body froze on the spot!
The other party’s threat was extremely direct, leaving him speechless... ...
It was not just him. The others also quieted down. To put it bluntly, everyone was here to ask for the quota, but they were not in the mood to offend the main character like fifth elder.
“Since no one has any objections, I’ll announce the rules of the quota...”second brother swept his gaze across the crowd. He placed his hands behind his back and straightened his back.
In this day and age, people with confidence were indeed tough when they spoke. After being bullied for so many years, he could finally ask for some interest... ...
Facing such a tough zhuxing, fifth brother could only look at his boss as if he was asking for help. Boss gangshi opened his mouth but didn’t say anything in the end. After all, his lineage also wanted the quota. After all... “...”. Rennes was not the only child in his family.
“I haven’t been back for a long time...”zhuxing said lazily, “I’m not familiar with everyone, so I’ll just follow the rules. Children with high aptitude and good grades will be given priority...”
When these words came out, everyone’s faces were shocked. Some showed excitement, while others had extremely gloomy expressions!
Zhuxing ignored the changes in the crowd, he said straightforwardly, “I’m not very familiar with the younger generation, so I’ll talk directly about the data of the family. At present, among the younger generation, Amy has the best data. Her bone structure is the best, and it’s the rare bone structure of a Golden Thunder Warrior. She has been studying martial arts at Lieutenant Colonel Zichuan these years, and her results are good. Whether it’s her basic points or her combat points, her performance in the same year is also quite excellent. She should be qualified to get a spot...”. “...”
His words made a skinny, middle-aged thunder warrior in the crowd tremble with excitement. He used to be a branch of the side family who had abandoned his grandfather. After he had returned, he had worked hard for many years, however, he still had a different identity, which was why he didn’t get many resources.
He had worked hard all his life. Plus, his daughter was very talented, which was why his grandfather had approved her to enter the glorious amethyst star. Among the people who came to ask for a place this time, he was one of those who didn’t have much confidence, he only hoped that his master would give his daughter a chance because of her outstanding aptitude. After all, it would be a pity if Amy’s aptitude was wasted.
When the man from the second branch said that they would choose the quotas based on her grades and aptitude, his whole body tensed up. His heart was beating so fast that it was in his throat. He didn’t expect that the man would do as he said and fill every cell in his body with excitement. It made him so excited that he could not even say the words of gratitude in a choked voice for a moment... ...
“Thank... Thank you, second master...”after a long while, the middle-aged man finally stammered out a few words... ...
Zhuxing glanced at the middle-aged man, he said coldly, “There’s nothing to thank. I’m only acting in accordance with the interests of the family. Your daughter was chosen only because of her own excellence. If she were to fail the family’s nurturing in the future, I will be the first to take back what she owes us!”
“Yes, yes, yes!”The other party trembled as he held onto his waist. He still replied with great gratitude, “Second master, don’t worry. Mila will definitely not let the family down!”
“I hope so...”zhuxing replied coldly and continued to read out the names of the remaining people.
One by one, the names were read out. In the crowd, there were people who were as excited as the middle-aged man from before. There were also people who had extremely gloomy expressions... ...
And this group of people who did not look good were the Guanxi faction led by the fifth elder. It just so happened that most of their own children were good-for-nothings. In the end, they did not seem to have any intention of giving their children quotas, this caused the faces of the group of people to turn frighteningly dark.
Of course, other than this group of people, in fact, most of the people in the crowd, even if their names were not read out, had better expressions than they had imagined. After all, this kind of round-robin selection was more convincing than Guanxi selection. On the contrary, most of the people had a lot of ideas... ...
When the nineteenth spot was read out, zhuxing put away the booklet in his hand, he stopped. “That’s the general situation. If you have any more questions, you can ask them now. It’s getting late. If you have nothing to do, could you please inform your juniors to gather at the teleportation station? We’ll set off in an hour at most!”
The group of collateral family parents who had received the quota immediately wanted to run away. This was like having money in one’s pocket. At this time, they did not want any more mishaps to happen, so they quickly went home to inform their children!
“Wait a minute!”Old five finally could not hold it in any longer and spoke!
“Oh?”Zhuxing looked at the other party lazily. “Old Five, do you have anything else to say? Please hurry, time is of the essence...”
“Second brother...”old five took a deep breath, he lowered his voice and said, “I won’t say anything if we elders can’t go. After all, just like what you said, we should give young people some opportunities. It would be a waste for us old fellows to go and take the spots. But after all, we elders are old men who have done our best for the clan. Now that we have such an opportunity, are we really not going to show you any respect?”
Zhuxing chuckled. “Fifth brother, your words are a little ridiculous. If you’re talking about the family’s feelings, could it be that you think the family owes you something? You’ve worked for the family for so many years. Did the family mistreat you? Didn’t give you the corresponding treatment? Did your family enjoy less resources?”
“That’s not what I meant!”Fifth Brother said quickly.
“Then who are you talking about feelings with? me?”Zhuxing laughed even more happily. “Then it’s even easier to answer you. You and I don’t have any feelings!”
“Cough...”
In the hall, everyone could not help but choke. They gritted their teeth and held back the urge to laugh. Their faces were red from holding it in. They looked extremely comical.
“You...”old five was flustered. “If you weren’t lenient, why did you keep me here just now?”
“I kept you?”Zhuxing revealed an expression of reminiscence, a few seconds later, he suddenly came to a realization. “Oh, you mean just now? “I said that if you have any objections, you can leave. I didn’t say that if you don’t have any objections, you can have a spot if you stay. Wasn’t the rules announced earlier very clear? “We judge people according to their aptitude and results. Don’t you know whether that idiot grandson of yours can get a spot or not? “I’ve been very curious just now. What are you waiting for in the hall like a Fool?”
“PFFT! !”
This time, a few people couldn’t help but burst out laughing. Among them were the third elder and the fourth elder.
After so many years, they had finally seen fifth elder suffer. If not for the presence of the old man, the two of them would have wanted to record a video and go back to enjoy it... ...
“You... you...”fifth elder was so angry that his entire body was trembling. Finally, he looked at Boss gunsh. “Big Brother, look at second elder!”
Gunsh frowned and said, “Second brother, you’re right. If you don’t want to give him a spot, then don’t. Why are you wasting old five...”
“I don’t have the time to waste him...”. Zhuxing rolled his eyes and said, “He directly came up to be slapped in the face. No one with face would ask for a spot for their idiot grandson like him. What do you think, Big Brother?”
“Watch Your Words!”Gunsh said with a straight face, “The grandson of the fifth family is a little lacking in talent. You are an elder of a grandfather’s generation, yet you speak like an idiot and shut your mouth. What do you think?”
The fifth brother looked at his big brother in a daze. His big brother seemed to be speaking up for him, but... ... He did not have any intention of fighting for a spot for him. On the contrary... ... there was a feeling of acquiescence. ...
GUNSH obviously felt fifth brother’s resentful gaze, but he could only brace himself and pretend not to see it.
The reason was very simple. In public, second brother would directly play the card of selecting a scholar based on talent. This method was naturally the most recognized by the public. If fifth brother wanted to openly cut the queue based on his connections, how could he show it in public...
The children that the second brother announced just now were the ones with the best aptitude and results among the younger generation in the family. If he openly asked for a spot for the fifth brother, then would the other people who were with him also fight for a spot? Wouldn’t the results announced earlier be completely disrupted under such chaos?
Putting aside whether or not it could change the result, even if it could, he had directly offended these collateral family members who had already obtained a spot. One had to know that being chosen by the second brother meant that their descendants’aptitude was indeed the best among the younger generation in the family. Don’t bully the young and poor. It was not a good thing to openly offend so many outstanding juniors... ...
Avoiding fifth brother’s gaze, gunsh directly changed the topic. “Second brother, didn’t you just say that there was one less spot? weren’t there twenty spots?”
...
When zhuxing heard this, he did not even lift his eyelids and said indifferently, “The last spot, naturally, I have to leave it for my son Xi Ye First! !”
