Insufficient balance
In the guest house.
That little servant was visibly taken aback, but immediately put on a smile. However, at this moment, Lin Yuan discovered that the gaze that had just been withdrawn had once again focused on him.
He was also a clever man and immediately understood the reason.
At this moment, he is just a young man. This inn can be said to be the best in Fenglin County. A 15 or 16-year-old young man, how could he be so, and those who come here are all regular customers. Lin Yuan is obviously a new face.
He couldn't help but let out a wry smile in his heart, actually he shouldn't have entered this inn at all, and it would be even better if he hadn't entered this town.
However, since I've already come in, leaving immediately would only arouse more suspicion. Isn't this the case of "This house has no silver, three hundred taels"?
He collected his thoughts and waited for the food and wine to arrive. After a moment, the young waiter brought some simple food and wine over.
Just as he was about to leave, Lin Yuan called out to him and said, "Xiao Er, with so many warriors here, surely there's something going on?"
The little servant bowed his head and smiled, saying: "Yes, this young brother, looking at your appearance, you should be from outside, aren't you here to participate in the Wu Zong test ten days later? Just tens of miles ahead is our famous Wu Zong in Fenglin County."
Lin Yuan touched the back of his head, and this time he came out, he had indeed heard of Wu Zong, but didn't expect to encounter Wu Zong's test for recruiting disciples. It seemed that Mo Yanran, the daughter of the town mayor of Qian Xing Town, was among them.
"Little Second, I heard that Wu Zong is very strict in recruiting disciples. Do you know what standards they use to recruit their disciples?" Lin Yuan asked casually.
He had made up his mind before coming here, anyway, he didn't have anything to do now, and his strength was not enough to go to the extreme west to find his parents. It's better to find a place to improve his own strength. This Wu Zong seems to be the most suitable place.
The smile on Xiao Er's face didn't change, but his demeanor became even more respectful: "This young man, Wu Zong is a major sect in our Fenglin County and other counties, even in the entire prefecture. The standard for recruiting disciples is extremely high, and it's said that only those with exceptionally strong martial talent can join." Xiao Er paused, continuing, "Moreover, every year Wu Zong recruits thousands of people, but only one hundred can join as registered disciples." He spoke these words very quickly, clearly having repeated them countless times before.
Lin Yuan nodded in satisfaction, tossed a few pieces of silver over, and waved his hand. The young waiter's face lit up with a smile, thanked him repeatedly, and backed away with a slight bow.
Lin Yuan was also thinking at this time, looking at the food on the table, and slowly started eating. Anyway, he wasn't in a hurry now, and there were still ten days left, so he could wait here.
He finally knew why so many warriors stared at him as soon as he entered the inn, and even in their gazes, Lin Yuan felt a hint of murderous intent, although it was not heavy. But Lin Yuan still felt it.
These warriors all came to participate in the Wu Zong test, and among so many test-takers, only one hundred can enter Wu Zong, of course, they need to compete, so they all regard Lin Yuan as an opponent or even an enemy.
"Hmph, wanting to become a disciple of the Martial Sect? It's not something a young whippersnapper like you can pass." Just as Lin Yuan was eating, a light and teasing voice came from behind him.
"Kid, I advise you to go back. From where you came from, return there and avoid losing your life for no reason. You're just a young punk who hasn't even grown a full head of hair yet, what makes you think you can participate in the Wu Zong test?" The voice said again as Lin Yuan remained unresponsive.
"Who are you, what thing?" Lin Yuan slowly turned his head around, didn't put him in his eyes at all. Sat there and glanced at him sideways.
Lin Yuan saw that the people around him, seeing the young man standing in front of him, all showed a hint of fear and retreated backwards. Looking at the young man's back, two burly warriors stood behind him, obviously, this was a young master from some family.
But what the person in front didn't think of was that Lin Yuan, although small, seemed to be only about 10 years old himself.
The young man saw Lin Yuan ignoring him and even staring at himself. He immediately fell face down and said, "How dare you stare at me?"
Lin Yuan didn't want to cause trouble, after all the people here were martial artists and had come to participate in the Wu Zong test. He had just arrived here not long ago and didn't want to conflict with others, so he stood up and thought of leaving like this.
"Think you can just quietly leave? I don't think so!" The young man sneered, grabbing Lin Yuan's wrist.
Lin Yuan's power was so great that, compared to ordinary warriors, plus Lin Yuan's martial arts dual cultivation, it could be called divine power. With a flick of his wrist, he sent the young man flying out, causing him to stumble and almost fall to the ground.
This seventeen or eighteen year old youth was enraged and shouted: "Dare to lay a hand on me? I'll make sure you can never take the Wu Zong test again!"
Just after the young man finished speaking, several more martial artists squeezed into the crowd. The people around them suddenly showed a look of fear and quickly retreated backwards, as if they recognized these few individuals.
These few people quickly surrounded Lin Yuan, and the young man who was just rebuked by Lin Yuan sneered: "Give him a lesson, let him not be able to get out of bed for a month."
"It's indeed a place with people, there will be grudges and grievances, even warriors can't avoid it." Lin Yuan said this sentence and didn't say anything more, directly walking forward. He simply didn't want to provoke trouble, but unexpectedly, he ran into such a situation.
"Up, help me beat up this guy." The young man saw Lin Yuan trying to leave again and quickly called on the people around him to surround Lin Yuan. Looking at their stance, Lin Yuan was in for a fight that he couldn't avoid.
Lin Yuan didn't want to entangle with them too much. The several martial artists in front of him, their strength was simply not worth mentioning to Lin Yuan. They were all at the fifth realm of acquired later stage, perhaps these martial artists could be considered top-notch in Qian Xing Town, but in Fenglin County, they were nothing.
As soon as Lin Yuan entered the inn, he was very clear that among the guests, there were several people with cultivation levels of seven or eight dan, but what puzzled him was why none of them wanted to provoke this young man. Was it because there was a powerful backer behind him?
If you don't want to move, I'll move!
The current Lin Yuan is not someone who can be bullied by anyone. In the past, I didn't have the strength to fight back, so I could only endure it. Now, go to hell!
Lin Xuan's heart moved slightly, and he had already made a few guesses about the young man's identity. He thought to himself: Since this is a heaven-sent opportunity, I might as well give them a surprise.
Without looking around, his face expressionless, he had already taken a step forward, charging towards the crowd.
His action was perfectly normal, but to others, it was inexplicably bizarre. Lin Yuan's upper body didn't move, and his body seemed to be charging forward as well, yet someone discovered that even after rushing several zhangs, they still hadn't touched the hem of Lin Yuan's clothes.
In everyone's eyes, Lin Yuan's body was clearly charging forward, advancing. But in reality, he was actually retreating!
He looks like he's in a genuine attacking state, but his actual action is a genuine dodge!
His feet, two feet maintaining a large stride forward posture, moving flexibly...
This bizarre phenomenon completely subverted people's cognition.
In the inn, some of the martial artists who were at least in the seventh or eighth stage of their cultivation suddenly opened their mouths wide, about to exclaim in shock, but then came back to their senses and abruptly closed them again. The sound of their upper and lower teeth colliding was loud and clear. What kind of young whippersnapper was this? This required at least a cultivation base of the seventh stage.
At the same time, on the other side of the inn, two gasping sounds were also heard. The sound was so loud that it almost sucked their bodies around into a vacuum.
Lin Yuan's sudden dodge immediately caused extreme shock among the onlookers in the dark!
Everyone stared at Lin Yuan's movements with unblinking eyes, their eyes filled with shock!
Treading on the clouds, stepping on the sky, advancing and retreating, going and returning! Linjiazhuang's cloud-stepping skill has reached the highest realm. Treading on the nine heavens!
