Chapter 549: The Northern Army Wants This Person!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The young man in blue had sneaked behind a big tree and was less than fifteen meters away from Heather Sage and Ginny Neal!
A distance of fifteen meters!
For a warlord level martial artist, he would arrive in the blink of an eye.
Or perhaps, it would not even take a second.
After all, the standard speed of a warlord was 20 meters per second.
Even though the blue-clothed youth was not a true warlord level martial artist who met all three criteria.
However, his strength was not far off.
If nothing unexpected happened, the warlord level martial artists in this batch of students would be sent to the capital.
These were all good seedlings!
After a few years, he would become a War God and become a marquis level martial artist.
Outside the arena.
Sammy Dudley’s gaze was solemn as he said, “Commander, this kid is very sinister. He has the strength of a warlord, yet he’s still so cautious. He’s approaching Ginny silently. He’s trying to ambush her!”
A warlord level martial artist was going to ambush Heather and Ginny.
How could the two women defend against him?
They probably would not even have the time to react.
Braydon Neal’s gaze was deep as he stared at the screen silently.
Ginny and Heather chose martial arts.
They had to face everything today.
The assessment in the forest was the simplest sparring session between martial artists. Moreover, there were the rules of the martial arts examination that restricted these examinees.
If it was in the outside world, there were no rules and restrictions.
A battle between martial artists was a battle of life and death. It was extremely dangerous.
What was happening now.
Heather and Ginny’s lives would not be in danger.
The reason was simple.
Looking at the cautious appearance of the young man in blue, it was obvious that he was a meticulous little fox. How could he ignore the rules of the martial arts examination and kill Heather and Ginny?
In the martial arts examination, those who dared to kill would be severely punished and their qualifications to take the examination would be revoked.
Therefore, the youth in blue would not kill them.
What he wanted were the two metal tokens in Ginny’s hands.
In the next moment.
The youth moved like a cunning rabbit, a sharp broken blade appearing in his hand.
The sharp dagger-like weapon reflected a cold light under the moonlight.
The tip of the blade pierced Ginny’s back.
This was a crisis.
Old Man Zito, who was hiding in the dark, stood on a big tree with his hands behind his back and watched coldly. His withered old hand gently placed on the hilt of his sword at his waist, ready to attack at any time.
Ginny and Heather had their backs facing him, so they had not noticed the danger yet.
The youth’s charging body suddenly changed. He instantly retracted the dagger in his hand and swept across, forcefully snatching a metal token from Ginny’s hand.
The sudden situation startled Ginny.
Heather was even more shocked. Before her eyes could catch the blue-clothed youth’s movements, one of the metal tokens had been snatched away.
“This is mine!”
Ginny said seriously.
Heather held Ginny’s hand. With a grave look in her eyes, she whispered,
“Ginny, don’t speak! ”
“The two of you are really innocent young misses of aristocratic families. Don’t you understand the rules of the martial arts examination?”
The seventeen-year-old youth in blue toyed with the No. 66 metal token and chuckled playfully.
Heather frowned slightly and said, “I know a little. The rules of the martial arts examination are that you cannot kill. The examinees who participate in the drawing of lots cannot form teams with each other. They are considered enemies. When they meet, the victor must be determined.”
“In other words, as long as you don’t violate these two rules, you can do anything else, including snatching a metal token and hurting people!”
The youth in blue smiled lightly.
He told Heather and Ginny what reality was.
In this forest examination arena, the most dangerous thing was not the wild beasts, but the other examinees.
From the moment they entered the examination arena, they should have understood that the Central Plains main team wanted them to follow the law of the jungle.
The strong would live, and the weak would be eliminated!
The only red line was that they could not kill anyone.
Heather’s delicate face was very calm, as if she was not surprised at all.
Perhaps she had also thought of these things.
The blue-clothed youth chuckled playfully. “I attacked from behind just now. I could have killed you all in one strike. However, I, Charles Lansky, am not that
crazy. I would not kill a ten-year-old girl.
“Of course, don’t treat me as a good person. My family is poor, and I can’t afford the daily consumption of a martial artist. Therefore, I have to use the martial arts examination to stand out and go to the capital to live among the large factions!
“That’s why I have to get one of these metal tokens!
“Of course, if I can get another one in the next two hours, I’ll return it to you!”
The young man’s name was Charles Lansky, and he was being frank. He was not being a hypocrite. Every word who he was and what kind of person he was.
He snatched the metal token because he respected the rules of the examination, and it was also for himself.
After all, there were only 300 metal tokens.
There were more than 1,600 examinees.
If a talented young genius like Charles did not snatch one, he would have taken the martial arts examination for nothing.
Would that not be a pity?
This was allowed in the examination!
If a powerful martial artist snatched a metal token, it would be justified. You would be an outstanding martial artist and could go to the capital.
Outside the arena.
Braydon stared at the computer screen and smiled. “He is a good seedling.”
“The Central Plains main team has decided!”
Sammy was not stupid. Charles was just to his liking.
Although Charles was young, he knew right and wrong when doing things, and he had a conscience.
He was right to snatch the metal token!
No one said anything about him hurting Ginny during the process of snatching the metal token.
After all, how could the process of the martial arts competition not involve hurting people?
Charles’s explanation was very clear. He could not bring himself to do anything to a ten-year-old like Ginny.
The bottom line was clear!
He was a good seedling.
Sammy wanted him.
After the assessment ended, he would personally see Charles. Before sending him to the capital, he would let him join the Central Plains main team in advance!
Actually, doing so would not affect Charles’s future.
Even if Charles joined the Central Plains main team, he could still enter the eight institutions to study. After graduation, he could return to the Central Plains main team and work there.
The rules in this area were very loose. Hatcher Murphy nodded and said, “He’s a good seedling!”
“What, you want to snatch him from me?”
Braydon laughed lightly.
Sammy and Hatcher’s faces instantly turned green.
Was the commander trying to snatch him away from them?
Braydon had taken a fancy to Charles!
Did you think that King Braydon came to the provincial capital to deal with the Babcock family’s matters and not leave just to see his sister?
This was only one of his goals.
Braydon was here to oversee the selection of some good seedlings for the Northern Army.
On the table, Braydon wrote a name on a piece of white paper.
The first name was Jeremy Norton!
This was the last student of the black-robed Prime Minister Barrett Yearwood, and the Northern Army King Braydon was specifically asking for him!
The second name was Charles Lansky!
The Northern Army also wanted this youth.
The capital envoy Jordyn Quimby said helplessly, “The people that Lord Northern King specifically wants.. The future achievements of these two young ones will probably not be inferior to us!”
