"So it's Brother Crane Wall, Sister Mengshui."

When one of the captains of the Yang Yun City army saw that it was Chen Hebi and Chen Mengshui, he waved his hand to signal for his men to stop.

Chen Hebi nodded his head at this captain, his face also revealing a smile, and he did not dare to be careless.

Yang Yuncheng's mayor was a descendant of the royal family and possessed the bloodline of the Liang Yue Dynasty's royal family. When he came to be the mayor, he naturally had his own personal guards.

However, the mayor didn't have many personal guards with him. The rest would need to be picked from the Yang Yun City to form his own army.

In any city, it was impossible for the members of the army to come from just one place, but from all kinds of different forces.

Only this way would the mayor be able to keep the various factions in the army in a balanced state, and guarantee his own benefits.

In the Chen family of Yang Yun City, when the younger generation of the younger generation reached adulthood, many of them had joined the army to train with the help of the army's resources.

If he performed well in the army, he would gain a higher status and receive more resources than he would in the family.

If he could climb up to the position of Yang Yun City's Yang Hou and even higher, his authority within the family would increase.

The young man in front of him was one of the men who had joined the army after the Chen family had grown up in Yang Yun City. They did not belong to the Yang Yun Army, but rather to the guards.

The responsibilities of the Yang Yun Army and the Guard were different. The Yang Yun Army and the Jin Lin Army were similar, mainly fighting forces, which were external.

Although the guards also needed force, most of it was to guard the city walls and maintain law and order within the city. Thus, their level of force was not comparable to Yang Bian's army.

If he wanted to be the leader of a team in the Yang Yun Army, he would have to at least reach the great circle or even reach the Xiantian realm.

As for being the leader of a team of guards, he only needed to be at the Heavenly Axis Realm.

Most of the team members were at seven meridians or small circle.

The person before him was a cultivator who had just broken through to the early stages of the Refinement Realm. He was around the same age as Chen Hebi and Chen Mengshui, but his strength was two small levels below them.

As a sign of respect, Zhang Xuan addressed the two of them as elder brothers and elder sisters.

This person had a cultivation base at the early stage of the Revolving Core realm, and was also the captain of the guards. His performance was very good, and there was great hope that he would become a vice captain in the Yang Yun Army in the future.

Chen Hebi laughed, "Feiyu, you've worked hard. It's getting late, so Mengshui and I will be returning first."

Chen Feiyu waved his hand, and the troops behind him made way.

He curiously sized up Chen Yi and the others. He naturally knew what Chen Hebi and Chen Mengfei had been doing these past few days. Thus, he knew that Chen Yi and his group should be the first to pass the examination.

However, they were only interested in it. The Chen family of Yang Yun City had already held their second round of examinations many times. It was a fact that these geniuses from the branch families of Yang Yun City were not able to stand out much.

Therefore, after taking a few glances, he withdrew his gaze, indicating that Chen Hebi and Chen Mengshui could leave. As for him, he needed to continue standing guard.

Just as Chen Hebi and Chen Mengshui were about to leave, a few other dark cloud birds landed in this area.

Chen Feiyu went up to greet him. The Dark Cloud Bird was not unique to the Chen family, so Chen Feiyu was not sure if they were from the same family. Naturally, he had to go and take a look.

However, in the end, it turned out that the other party was truly from the same clan. They were examiners like Chen Hebi and Chen Mengfei.

"Haha, Hebi, how are things on your side this time?" Before he even arrived, the sound of loud laughter could be heard.

"An extraordinary young girl has appeared on my side. Who knows, she might even pass the second round."

Very soon, the other party appeared in Chen Yi and the others' line of sight. This person had a bloated body and a fierce-looking face. When he didn't smile, his eyes were almost invisible.

Chen Mengshui looked at him with disdain, "Damn fatty, don't get so close to me. Your body is covered in sweat."

The fatty was dissatisfied: "This young master is a man, do you understand that cold faced woman!"

The corner of Chen Hebi's mouth twitched. He dared to say that Chen Mengshui was the cold-faced woman? There really weren't many in the same generation as her.

Chen Hongfei and the rest were extremely cautious. Although Chen Hebi and Fatty seemed to be close, they did not dare to guarantee the truth. Furthermore, at this moment, they were far away from their families.

No one dared to laugh when they heard the fat man mention Chen Mengshui.

However, on the fatty's side, a sixteen year old youth chuckled.

With this smile, something big happened.

Chen Mengshui's expression turned cold and said lightly, "Is it funny?"

Chen Hebi's and even the fatty's expressions turned cold as they coldly glared at the youth.

The youth's face turned deathly pale, especially those cold and indifferent eyes of the fatty, which scared the youth so much that his legs trembled.

In the first round of the examination, he remembered that there were some people who would not accept the fact that there were too few people who were willing to cause trouble, but in the end, he was directly crippled by this fatty and became extremely fierce.

Chen Hongfei and the rest were already cautious to begin with, so they did not dare to speak up.

Chen Yi understood that these three had a good relationship with each other. They could joke around and mock each other, but the others couldn't because the two sides weren't on the same level.

Fatty was the first to turn his head and laugh, "Don't be angry, he's destined to be eliminated. Why do you need to get acquainted with him? Let's go, let's go back and drink a few cups. We've really exhausted ourselves out here for a few days."

Chen Hebi rolled his eyes. "Come on, with your personality, you never treat yourself badly outside. Will you be tired?"

"And didn't you say earlier that a little kid would definitely pass the second round? Let's see."

Chen Mengshui's interest was also piqued.

Not only the two of them, even Chen Yi and the others looked over with rapt attention.

To be viewed by those not inferior to Chen Hebi's status as having a high chance of passing the second round, this person would definitely be very outstanding. In the future, he might even be a strong competitor for them.

He might as well take a look in advance.

The fatty turned his head to look at the girl behind him and said with a smile, "Little Yumei, come here quickly."

Behind him, a young girl in a light blue dress walked out. She was young, about fifteen or sixteen years old, but she already had a slim figure, snow-white skin, and a waterfall of hair flowing down her back, making her look even more beautiful.

His black eyes revealed a trace of helplessness.

Thinking about it, if it wasn't necessary, she really didn't want to be targeted so easily after coming to the Yang Yun City.

"Greetings, milords." The young girl slightly bowed.

Chen Mengshui glanced at the young girl. As a woman, her eyes were filled with amazement.

She ridiculed, "Damn fatty, it really is the mouth you like."

The fatty cried out in injustice: "Xiao Yumei is really powerful, it's not that I like her that I favor her."

Chen Hebi curiously asked, "How powerful?" He could tell that this young woman's cultivation base was only at the peak of the seventh meridian, and she had yet to step into the minor cycle.

The fatty chuckled but didn't say anything. He sized up Chen Yi and the others instead. If it's too bad, you'll probably be mocked by that fellow, Chen Xingjian, just like last time. "

At the mention of Chen Xingjian, Chen Hebi's face darkened.

In fact, as examiners, they couldn't get any benefits. It was just that they were born in the Chen family of Yang Yun City. They were big, and some of their peers could not help but look at them with distaste.

When they were young, they could still fight. After reaching twenty and being promoted to the Circulatory Cycle, they could no longer do as they pleased for the clan.

Think about it, with some of the family's most important deacons and protectors fighting each other every now and then, wouldn't the family be in chaos?

Although they were not deacons, as their cultivation level increased, they would definitely gain power in the future.

How could a person in power fight in public?

Thus, in order to resolve this grudge, he had to use other methods.

Now that they were both examiners, whoever chose the first round of examinees to become more outstanding would naturally become their new method of settling their grudges.

For example, the person Chen Hebi had favored the most in the previous batch had been defeated by the person Chen Xingjian had favored the most. He had been eliminated in the first round of the second round of examinations, to the extent that Chen Hebi had been mocked by Chen Xingjian many times in the past.

If this still happened, Chen Hebi could imagine that Chen Xingjian would be watching him make a fool of himself for a period of time.

However, thinking about the nine promotions this time, Chen Hebi narrowed his eyes. Perhaps it was his turn to take revenge.

When Fatty saw Chen Hebi's expression, he knew that Chen Hebi had also received good seedlings this time around. He was extremely curious.

Under the fatty's constant questioning, Chen Hebi waved his hand at Chen Yi, Chen Jiayi, and Chen Jiaping. The three of them had no choice but to stand up and walk towards Chen Hebi.
