Chapter 493: Chapter 493: Job Application Chapter 493: Chapter 493: Job Application The Wen Family, a prominent household of Six Spirits City, is also one of the mbers of the Heavenly Path Association.
The Heavenly Path Association is a massive organization to which nurous powerful families from every continent have joined, with the Wen Family being one of them.
It is said that, initially, the Heavenly Path Association began as an alliance ford by so families for self-preservation, to avoid being devoured by the powerful sects. However, as the alliance grew in size, the mission of the Heavenly Path Association also changed.
Families and sects are different.
Sects do not consider bloodline, only talent, so they grow stronger during their developnt and co to occupy the vast majority of cultivation resources. Conversely, due to the narrow concept of bloodline, many families may face extinction if they fail to produce a talented individual for two successive generations.
It was not until the advent of the Heavenly Path Association that nurous families, allied through comrce, ford an alternative form of sect that allowed the powers of families to continue.
After so many years of heritage, the Heavenly Path Association has set a high threshold for its affiliates.
On each continent, only the most top-tier families are qualified to join. Of course, if a family declines, as long as they do nothing to harm the Heavenly Path Association, they will not be kicked out.
The Wen Family belongs to the latter category. When they joined the Heavenly Path Association, they were of the seven-star force, but now they have fallen to six stars. However, due to their ties with the Heavenly Path Association, their territory and business have not suffered greatly.
Nonetheless, there is also competition within the Heavenly Path Association, which requires so bouts to determine the allocation of resources, to stimulate mber progression and maintain a competitive spirit.
In a short while, the Wen Family will compete with three other major families for distribution channels, which is of high importance. Therefore, the Wen Family is openly seeking outside help to achieve a good performance in this competition.
From Soul Nurturing to Founding King Court, the Wen Family must select twelve Martial Artists, three from each realm. If passed, they can obtain a massive amount of cultivation resources, and if representing the Wen Family to victory, there will also be additional rewards.
Naturally, this proposition is highly attractive.
Shi Hao’s heart stirred; this could be an excellent entry point.
He strode forward and went to register.
“Na, age, cultivation,” the registration attendant asked without lifting his head.
Shi Hao answered truthfully, “Shi Hao, twenty years old, Self-Observation.”
“Oh?” Finally, the attendant looked up, giving Shi Hao a glance, with a look of shock on his face. A twenty-year-old Self-Observation was exceedingly rare on the West Rock Continent. “Which Aspect?” he inquired further.
“Two Aspects,” Shi Hao replied honestly.
“Only Two Aspects?” The attendant shook his head. “That’s too low. Even if you register, you’ll quickly be eliminated. It’s better to give up early.”
Among those applying, there were no shortage of Nine Aspects experts; Two Aspects was truly inconsequential.
Even if you are a top-notch genius, able to fight across four minor realms, you would still be equivalent to only a Six Aspects at best.
Totally insufficient.
Seeing that the other party was sowhat courteous, Shi Hao didn’t get angry but smiled, “No problem, even if I get eliminated, I can still learn a lot by fighting against experts.”
The attendant couldn’t help showing a vexed expression: “Hmph, I’m giving you friendly advice, and you don’t listen. Do you want to seek your own death? Just go, a re Two Aspects should not waste my ti.”
One more person ant one more workload, whether it’s recording the data or assigning opponents later on.
Shi Hao chuckled, initially thinking the fellow was quite polite, but it turned out he was just lazy. He shook his head, “The sign outside clearly states that as long as one is strong enough, regardless of background, they can apply. What’s this? Are you being picky here?”
The attendant, nad Wen Ci, was a Wen Family mber with diocre martial arts talent and low status; otherwise, he would not have ended up doing such a tedious job.
Still, as a Wen Family mber, he was naturally proud. He looked at Shi Hao and suddenly found Shi Hao’s handso and imposing face quite irritating. He said coldly, “What of it? If I say you’re not suitable, then you’re not suitable!”
Shi Hao smiled broadly, “Really?”
“Get out!” Wen Ci waved her hand.
Shi Hao didn’t move, as if he hadn’t heard.
“Soone, get him out for ,” Wen Ci ordered, looking towards the back.
Imdiately, two individuals dressed as house servants ca over to shove Shi Hao out.
Shi Hao stirred his vital energy, and at once, the two house servants wilted to the ground.
— His vitality was now too terrifying, like an endless ocean. Not to ntion these two minor Martial Artists of the Soul Nurturing realm, even peers in the sa realm would struggle to contend.
Did they think he had consud all those Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and cultivated for nothing?
“Oh? You dare to make a move?” Wen Ci said coldly, “Everyone inside, co out and throw this brat out.”
The people inside were those who had just co to register. Hearing the commotion outside, so had already co out to enjoy the spectacle.
“Young man, this is soone else’s territory. The mighty dragon doesn’t pressure the local snake; better leave quickly,” a burly man approached, his physique astonishingly large, with bare arms, his biceps as thick as ordinary people’s thighs.
His body was covered with tattoos, all of them weapons, each one lifelike.
Shi Hao shook his head, “Pride is worth fighting for; today, I’ve set my mind to take down that man’s arrogance,” he pointed at Wen Ci.
This naturally infuriated Wen Ci, but since he was only in the Soul Nurturing realm, how could he dare to directly clash with Shi Hao? He quickly pointed at Shi Hao, “Attack, hurry up and attack him!”
The people around cast contemptuous glances at him. We are not Wen Family servitors, just hired staff. Why should we listen to your commands?
However, there were always those eager to show off, like the burly man.
He flexed his muscles and said, “Then let us exchange a few moves.”
Shi Hao smiled, “Alright then.”
Seeing Shi Hao agree, many shook their heads.
“This must be a greenhorn, not even recognizing ‘Iron Tower’ Suyuan!”
“Suyuan is a ruthless man. Under the guise of sparring, who knows how many young people he has crippled?”
“Shush, keep it down or he’ll co after you!”
“Sigh, this kid won’t die, but he’ll certainly be maid!”
Many people whispered, all looking at Shi Hao with sympathetic eyes.
But, expect them to step forward and dissuade him?
What a joke, what does it have to do with them?
Suyuan roared and charged at Shi Hao.
Being at the Eight Aspects, he naturally had absolute strength to crush soone at the Second Aspect, so he didn’t need to use any techniques. He was like a humanoid bull, charging straight at Shi Hao.
Boom!
He collided with Shi Hao, but Shi Hao stood firm as if rooted to the ground. The shockwave from their clash spread out, and under the Self-Observation, everyone’s feet swayed as if they were drunk.
