"Little brother, are you joking? This na is too... sothing..." When the registration official saw the information Xiaoyao wrote, especially the na at the top, he felt a wave of helplessness.
"What's wrong? There's no rule saying I can't use this na, right?" Xiaoyao looked at the official with a smile and asked.
"Indeed there isn't, but it's very strange. This is the first ti I've seen such a na. Your parents are geniuses, this is too domineering," The official was stunned for a mont, then reacted and didn't continue dwelling on this issue. He just felt Xiaoyao's na was too formidable.
"I think so too, but there's no helping it. A na is just a code. Whether domineering or petty, it's all the sa," Xiaoyao shrugged indifferently. "If there's nothing else, can I leave now."
"No problem. Although you filled in very little information, this ti there really are no restrictions on these things. You can go," the official said very politely, without any arrogant official airs or irritation from such long work.
This was natural. Currently, the most important matter for all of Baiyue Kingdom was this marriage competition, which was directed at the entire continent. Baiyue Kingdom's officials didn't want any problems to occur at this ti, so the officials and guards they selected were all the best, no arrogant characters would appear.
"Thank you," Xiaoyao replied very politely. Even when others weren't polite, he would maintain certain courtesy, let alone when the other party was quite courteous.
"You're welco," The official smiled. Quite a few people thanked him like this, but he still preferred such people. At least after soone had just acted arrogantly, Xiaoyao's politeness made him very comfortable.
...
This person seed to be the line-cutter from earlier. He had been very arrogant because he felt his status and position were different from others, he didn't need to be polite to such minor officials.
This person's status was indeed not low in Baiyue Kingdom. He was a young master from a prominent Baiyue Kingdom family. The reason he ca to register today, the last day was to display a certain aloofness. Well, similar to the aloofness ntioned before, he wanted people to think he wasn't very anxious and didn't care about this competition, while also not wanting people to guess so early that he would participate.
But he hadn't expected to encounter Xiaoyao's criticism right at the start, which greatly displeased him. So the good temper he had originally prepared disappeared, making the official clearly feel his arrogance.
"Hmph, kid, just wait and see. I'll let you off for now, but after this competition ends, I'll make you understand the consequences of offending ," The prominent family's young master looked at Xiaoyao with fierce light in his eyes. He also knew to restrain himself because if he acted now, it might reach the king and princess's ears. He wasn't that stupid, he wouldn't joke about this.
Xiaoyao didn't know he had avoided trouble. After finishing registration, he ran back to the Sword Tomb. He felt there might be more materials he could find bargains on, no one could be certain about this.
"Young sir, we et again."
"Hehe, yes, what a coincidence..."
"Yesterday's sword..."
"That's my business. Please don't ask or interfere, Miss. Farewell..."
Xiaoyao hadn't expected to encounter yesterday's young lady as soon as he reached the Sword Tomb. When she wanted to ntion yesterday's sword, Xiaoyao directly refused to talk with her, then left her behind and went straight into the Sword Tomb to see if there were any oversights, not just others' oversights, but his own as well.
In this Sword Tomb, there were tens of thousands of broken swords. Having oversights was very normal. Xiaoyao had only been here a few days, having oversights was even more normal because he hadn't finished looking at everything.
After Xiaoyao entered the Sword Tomb, the young lady was stunned again. She seed to feel Xiaoyao was sowhat avoiding her, which made her a bit uncomfortable. However, she didn't think much about it and subsequently entered the Sword Tomb, deliberately staying separate from Xiaoyao.
Although the young lady actively spoke to Xiaoyao, it wasn't because she liked him, quite the opposite, she sowhat disliked him. She spoke actively only because of the sword Xiaoyao took yesterday. She was a sword lover.
If Xiaoyao were soone with insight, she would look around with him, or at least pay attention to him even if not together. But in her heart, she believed Xiaoyao was just lucky that one ti, so naturally she wouldn't pay attention to him.
This ti, Xiaoyao again examined sword by sword. Anyway, he had plenty of ti now, he'd look slowly. If he couldn't finish today, he'd continue tomorrow. Finding bargains would be great benefits.
Like this, ti passed bit by bit. Soon it was evening, and Xiaoyao seed to have gained sothing, not only seeing a sword with unique forging techniques but also obtaining a broken sword with special materials.
Relatively speaking, Xiaoyao seed to prefer seeing swords with unique techniques, but special materials were also good returns, at least they could let him forge a decent sword.
"Young sir, I see you've found another sword you like."
Very unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, when Xiaoyao was leaving, he again encountered that young lady. Seeing Xiaoyao holding another sword, she greeted him, emphasizing the words "you like" particularly heavily.
"Yes, I found another one. I like it very much. However, this ti I can give it to you. Do you want it?" Xiaoyao smiled. From this young lady's love of swords, he gained a little favorable impression. Besides, the special materials in this sword weren't particularly important to him.
"Young sir is too kind. Please keep this sword for yourself. I prefer yesterday's sword," the young lady shook her head.
"Yesterday's? Then I'm sorry, but that sword has a use for ," Xiaoyao refused. He could give away this sword, but that didn't necessarily an he could give away another. Moreover, he would never give that sword to this young lady in the future.
This was actually Xiaoyao's personality. He might casually give away things in his hands, no matter how precious, as long as he felt it was appropriate. In his words, this was a kind of fate, giving things to destined people was very normal.
However, if the other party didn't accept, then he would feel they were without fate. Even if they asked for the sa thing in his hands later, he would never give it again.
In his words, if you miss fate, you won't have another chance.
Just like this, the two left the entrance and walked in different directions. Xiaoyao returned to the wanderer inn, while where that young lady went was sothing Xiaoyao didn't care about and didn't want to know.
One night passed quickly. The sky showed white, people were starting a new day. For many people, today might be the day that rewrote their destiny.
In Yue City, there was such a group of people. They were about to set off to rewrite their destiny, if they succeeded.
"Tian He, want to go together?" Xiaoyao looked at Tian He's clean appearance. He seed to have specially grood himself. Well, this was such an important mont, one should pay attention.
Tian He looked at Xiaoyao and shook his head, "No need, little brother. You should wash up first and change into clean clothes. Your clothes seem to be yesterday's."
Everyone else was carefully dressed, but you seem to not care about anything, no different from usual. What's even more speechless is that you're still wearing yesterday's clothes.
"My spare clothes sohow got soaked yesterday and aren't dry today. I only have this outfit. It doesn't matter. I look the sa in anything," Xiaoyao said indifferently. As for how his clothes got soaked, he knew very well, and Tian He knew too, but he didn't say it.
"You could buy new clothes. Spending so money would be worth it," Tian He couldn't help saying to Xiaoyao as he left.
"I know, but I'm not used to new clothes. Old clothes are more comfortable. Thank you for your kindness," Xiaoyao smiled. This Tian He was indeed an honest good person. Others wouldn't do this, pretending not to see would already be quite good.
The people who soaked Xiaoyao's clothes were so among these people.
"Suit yourself then. I'm leaving first," Tian He shook his head and quickly departed.
Xiaoyao followed Tian He out, but he didn't follow him out of the inn. Instead, he found a table in the front hall and shouted at a waiter, "Waiter, bring ten bowls of tofu pudding, ten stead buns, ten fried dough sticks, one basket of shrimp dumplings, one basket of barbecue pork buns..."
Imdiately, Tian He and others were stunned. It wasn't because of the amount of food Xiaoyao ordered, but because he was actually preparing to leisurely eat breakfast at this ti. Didn't he care about today's competition?
Never mind him, I should leave first. Going early might have benefits.
"What are you looking at? Waiter, hurry up and take my order. I'm waiting here," Xiaoyao reminded the waiter who was standing there dumbfounded.
"Little brother, aren't you going to participate in Princess Wen Ya's marriage competition? How do you still have the mood to eat here?" the waiter asked sowhat dazedly. He had already known about Xiaoyao's registration yesterday, so he was puzzled, at such a mont, how could soone participating in the competition still have the mood to stay and eat breakfast?
"Whether I win or lose, this breakfast won't affect the outco. So why wouldn't I have the mood to eat here?" Xiaoyao smiled.
