C1771 Zhang Mao
"So that's how it is." Lin Long nodded, then asked doubtfully, "Why didn't the Li Family recruit them in advance?"
"I heard that it's because the number of people entering the secret realm suddenly increased. As for whether it's true or not, I don't know." Cai Ying replied.
"So that's how it is." Lin Long nodded.
"Hello everyone, welcome to the Li Family." At this time, such a voice came from the front. Lin Long raised his head and saw that it was a white-haired old man.
The old man wore black clothes with the word Li embroidered on the top. It was obvious that he was a member of the Li family.
"Hello, Elder Li Tao!" Someone who recognized this old man immediately said respectfully.
"Yes." Li Tao immediately nodded in satisfaction.
"Elder Li Tao, may I know the conditions for passing the examination?" Someone asked directly.
Although they were here to register, they did not give any conditions before, so they only let them in.
"This condition is very simple. Later, I will let you challenge a hall master. If you can take ten moves from him, you can join my Li family." Li Tao immediately said.
"Alright, now everyone spread out and leave the stage in the middle." Li Tao said.
Hearing his words, the crowd quickly dispersed, clearing up the middle area.
Li Tao looked around and said, "Hall Masters, please come out."
The moment he finished speaking, the eight middle-aged men walked to the center of the arena and lined up in a row.
"They are all the Hall Masters of our Li Clan, and all you need to do is take ten moves from them to pass the test! Alright, let's begin now. Those who have read the names first will walk up to the eight Hall Masters. " Li Tao shouted again.
Following that, a young man by his side began to recite the names. Clearly, it was done in accordance with the order of registration.
Soon, the eight participants arrived before the eight hall masters.
There was a certain limit to the age of those who signed up, so most of the participants were youths.
After which, the eight of them immediately took action against the eight hall masters. After a fierce battle, four of them were knocked to the ground.
"You've been eliminated!" Li Tao directly said to the person who had knocked him down.
Hearing this, the person that was knocked down naturally had no choice but to walk out of the Li family mansion. As for those who had endured for more than ten moves, they directly became members of the Li family.
After that, he recited the names of eight people, and this time, Cai Ying, who was standing beside Lin Long, recited the names as well.
"Brother Cai, good luck." Lin Long laughed.
"Brother Lin, you too." Cai Ying also laughed. As she spoke, she walked in front of a hall master.
Very quickly, the results were out. This time, five people were eliminated, and three of them became Li family members.
Through these two observations, Lin Long discovered that those who managed to pass were all Rank 2 Beast Practitioners or above. Of course, there were also those who were knocked out in the early stages of Rank 2 Beast Practitioners, but there was only one person who passed.
Seeing through the general situation, Lin Long had a plan in his mind.
Naturally, he would not unleash all of his strength.
Not long after, Lin Long's name was called, and he immediately walked over.
Just as Lin Long was preparing to exchange pointers with a hall master, in a room in a teahouse on the other side of the courtyard, a lady dressed in black stood at the window and looked in the direction of Lin Long and the rest.
A middle-aged man respectfully said from behind her: "Miss."
"Mm, you're here." The woman in black answered, but didn't turn around. She then asked, "Did she bring someone over?"
"Yes miss, she has already brought someone over." The middle-aged man replied.
"What's the strength of that person?" The woman in black asked.
"He should be at least a rank 2 beast tamer. I can't tell for sure." The middle-aged man said.
"Rank 2 beast?" The woman in black nodded.
"Miss, what should we do?" the middle-aged man asked.
"Let's not move for now and let Zhang Chaoran inside give him a bit of a hard time. We can also check his strength at the same time. After all, she found him, he shouldn't be too weak." The woman in black said.
"Miss, I understand." The middle-aged man said.
"Alright, you can go now." The woman in black said.
"Yes." "Yes." The middle-aged man immediately walked out.
Only then did the woman in black turn her head back. If Lin Long was here, she would definitely be surprised, because this woman's looks were also extremely outstanding.
At this time, Lin Long had already made his move to deal with the hall master in front of him.
Lin Long brought out the strength of a Level 2 Beast Tamer from the very beginning.
"Bam!"
Both of them took a few steps back as the palm strike hit each other.
"Mm, not bad." The hall master in front of him nodded, then said, "Be careful next, my palm power will be even stronger than before!"
After he finished speaking, another palm struck towards Lin Long.
This palm strike was indeed stronger than before. After this strike, Lin Long directly retreated several tens of steps before stopping.
On the other hand, the hall master's upper body simply swayed a little.
"Yes." Nodding his head again, this hall master continued, "Next up, I will have to make some changes to my moves!"
After he finished speaking, another palm struck towards Lin Long.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang ?"
This time, the two of them fought for so many moves. After ten moves, the other side finally stopped.
It was very clear that Lin Long had passed the examination, but he had only unleashed a little of his strength, so the other party did not feel that he was very powerful.
"That's right, Lin Li. You've passed the examination!" Li Tao, who was standing behind the hall master, immediately said.
"Thank you, Elder Li Tao, and Hall Master Mo." After saying that, Lin Long returned.
"Brother Lin, you did well!" Cai Ying smiled as he walked back.
Cai Ying had also just passed the test. In other words, the two of them had already become Li family members.
After a period of time, the exam finally ended. In the end, over a hundred people successfully became members of the Li family.
"Congratulations all on becoming members of our Li Clan, I hope you all will work harder in the future ?." Li Tao ordered someone to take them out of the training grounds after he had said those words passionately and passionately. Then, he brought them to a place where they could live.
They each had a room, so the treatment was pretty good.
The room that Lin Long and Cai Ying chose was next to each other.
After going in to tidy up a bit, Lin Long walked out, planning to ask Cai Ying for more information.
Who would have thought that just as he walked out, the three of them were standing in front of him, blocking his way.
The three of them were all wearing Li Family uniforms, but Lin Long had never seen them before.
"What do you want?" Lin Long smiled slightly.
"Your name is Lin Li, right?" The person at the front said.
This young man had a fierce and fierce expression on his face.
"That's right." Lin Long nodded.
"Yes, my name is Zhang Mao, I have a bit of a reputation in the Li family, and a few of my brothers are giving me face." The youth said.
"Oh, I wonder what's the matter, Brother Zhang?" Lin Long asked.
"Nothing much, I just want you to join my team and work with me." Zhang Mao proudly stated.
"Does the Lee family allow such a small team?" Lin Long frowned.
"Of course we are allowed to. The monthly salary given by our family is not enough for us to cultivate. Therefore, the Li family requires us to go out to hunt fierce beasts or to do other things. This is because a small team is naturally allowed to exist." Zhang Mao said.
"Lin Li, Brother Zhang said so much to you because he thinks highly of you. Hurry and thank him." a person beside Zhang Mao said.
Unexpectedly, Lin Long directly said, "I'm sorry, I don't have the will to join any group."
Zhang Mao and the rest did not seem to have any powers, even if Lin Long wanted to join any team, he would not join them.
"Brat, you actually rejected me. You are really blind!" Hearing Lin Long's words, Zhang Mao's face became gloomy.
"Kid, do you still want to continue staying in the Li family estate?" Zhang Mao and the other people beside him also said the same.
"Everyone, if you all continue to be this unreasonable, I can only tell Elder Li Tao and the others." Lin Long said indifferently.
He did not care about their threats.
"You ?" Hearing Lin Long's words, the faces of Zhang Mao and the others all changed.
"You are impressive, but you will suffer very soon!" Zhang Mao said with a gloomy face.
"You'll see." The person beside him added.
After he finished speaking, they turned around to leave. Lin Long realized that the three of them had gone to look for someone else.
"Brother Lin, are you alright?" At this moment, Cai Ying, who had already noticed them, quickly walked over.
"I'm fine." Lin Long shook his head.
"But Brother Cai, why don't they come to you?" Then, he asked doubtfully.
"Because I've already sided with a small power." Cai Ying said straightforwardly.
"Is that so?" Lin Long finally understood.
"Brother Lin, you must be careful. Although this Zhang Mao isn't too strong, he still remembers grudges." Cai Ying said.
"Never mind." Lin Long shook his head.
After that, Cai Ying told Lin Long about the Li Clan's matters.
Unknowingly, after a quarter of an hour had passed, Zhang Mao and a few others had appeared before him.
"Lin Li, I'll give you one more chance. Do you want to join our small team?" Zhang Mao said coldly.
"Again, I'm not interested." Lin Long shook his head.
"Good boy, you're really refusing a toast and refusing a forfeit!" Zhang Mao said with a gloomy face.
After he finished speaking, he signaled the person beside him with his eyes, and that person immediately took out a bundle and threw it on the ground. When Lin Long was still confused, he fiercely stepped on it a few times.
After that, he pointed at Lin Long and said, "Lin Li, you brat, you really do not put us old men of the Li Family in your eyes, you actually dare to step on my shoulders!"
"Lin Li, you brat, you really think too highly of yourself!"
The other two began to clamor as well.
This sound quickly attracted many people over.
"What happened? What happened here?" Soon, a middle-aged man wearing the uniform of a hall master walked over.
"Hall Master Meng, this kid might be a newcomer, but he doesn't put us in his eyes. I have good intentions for giving him something, but he actually threw it on the ground and stomped on it?" The person who had taken out the package pointed at it on the ground.
"You're really bold. You started a ruckus right after entering. Do you want to be kicked out of the Li family?" The middle-aged man called Hall Master Meng pointed at Lin Long and shouted.
Seeing him like that, how could Lin Long not know that he had come here to cause trouble with Zhang Mao?
"Hall Master Meng, this isn't my fault. They intentionally threw it down and stepped on it themselves, all for the sake of framing me." Lin Long said indifferently.
"Criminalize you?" What kind of status do you have that is worth us getting framed for? " Zhang Mao said coldly.
"That's right. What sort of status do they have? How could they possibly blame you?" Hall Master Meng yelled again, then asked, "What's your name? I will take you to Elder Li Tao and have him drive you out of the Li Family! "
"My surname is Lin, my name is Lin." Lin Long frowned.
"Lin Li, right? Follow me to Elder Li Tao's place right now." Hall Master Meng said.
"Hallmaster Meng, please wait." Zhang Mao suddenly said.
"Yes, Zhang Mao, what's the matter?" Hall Master Meng asked doubtfully.
"I also don't want to make things too difficult for Lin Li. If I'm willing to fight him one-on-one, then I won't make things difficult for him." Zhang Mao laughed sinisterly.
"Zhang Mao, I didn't expect you to think for a new person." Hall Master Meng nodded, then looked at Lin Long and said, "Lin Li, do you agree?"
"I have no objections." Lin Long said.
"Alright, let's head to the training field now!" Zhang Mao immediately rejoiced.
After that, they immediately brought Lin Long to the training grounds.
Not long after, Lin Long and Lin Long started fighting, while the others were surrounding them, at this time, the others who had heard the news also rushed over.
Amongst them were even characters at the Elder level.0
"What's going on?" The two elders asked as they came over.
"Elders, Lin Li is willing to fight with Zhang Mao. If anything happens, he will take responsibility." Hall Master Meng smiled at them.
The two clan elders looked at Lin Long, and one of them asked, "Lin Li, is this true?"
The reason for this question was naturally because they thought that Lin Long's strength was weaker than Zhang Mao's.
"Elders, this is true." Lin Long nodded.
"Alright, you can continue." One of the Elders nodded.
The other elder also nodded.
"Lin Li, how about you make a move?" Zhang Mao said proudly.
When Lin Long rejected him like that just now, it was naturally because he had hatred in his heart, and it was also because of this that he gave Hall Master Meng the benefit of making hall master Meng come out and sing a song for him.
What he did not expect was that Lin Long actually did not refuse, and this naturally went perfectly with him.
"If I let you know how powerful I am, you will behave yourself in the future," Zhang Mao sneered in his heart.
Then, he took out his own sword. Although he did not put Lin Long in his eyes, he was still a cautious man. He did not want to capsize too quickly.
As for Lin Long, he also took out his own long sword. Although he could send his opponent flying with a single palm, he naturally would not do it, because this would reveal his true strength.
"Alright, you may begin."
Hall Master Meng, as the referee, added.
"Brat, look at this!" Zhang Mao bellowed, and then struck his sword towards Lin Long.
