Chapter 77: The Kontrol Yuan Conference

  "Haha, so the young brother is Jin San after all! I've long admired you!" Zu Ji Tian laughed and said, at this time the two had already arrived at a tea house and began to chat.

  "What? Why did Ji Tian say that? I don't understand," Du Fei said with a puzzled expression.

  "Haha, it seems that Jin San brothers really don't know. Weren't you in Xing'an City the other day and did something that everyone praised? Did Jin San brothers forget?" Zu Ji Tian laughed.

  "Oh! How did you know about this too?" Du Fei asked.

  "Haha, now this matter has spread like wildfire in Xing'an City. Luo San was already notorious in the city, and it's not a bad thing that Jin San could kill the evil person with his own hands. However, the lord of Xing'an City, Luo Lie, has already posted a reward, your head is now worth 1,000 gold coins!" Zujitian opened his folding fan and smiled at Du Fei.

  Du Fei also looked at Zu Ji Tian with a shocked expression. Zu Ji Tian saw what Du Fei was thinking and smiled: "Hehe, Jin San brother, don't be alarmed, I'm not that kind of person. I think you're a friend worth befriending, and as for external things, I've never put them in my eyes. Besides, I'm not interested in those vulgar things." At this time, Zu Ji Tian's appearance was very sincere.

  "Haha, Brother Ji Tian, to be honest, I thought you weren't a bad person from the moment I met you. When you lent me a hand back then, I felt that you were a good person, with a personality that hates evil as much as it loves virtue. This friend is definitely someone I'll be friends with." As he spoke, Du Fei lightly patted Ji Tian's arm.

  "Haha, indeed refreshing! Come on, Jin San brothers, let's have some tea." As they spoke, the two of them picked up their teacups and started drinking.

  "I wonder what Jin San's next move will be?" Zu Ji Tian put down his teacup and looked at Du Fei.

  "I don't know, I just came out of the house to take a stroll because I had nothing better to do," said Du Fei. In fact, Du Fei's purpose for coming out this time was very clear, which was to find his own sister. However, he had only known Zu Ji Tian for a few hours and didn't know what kind of person he was, so Du Fei didn't mention his purpose. This bit of experience in the jianghu world Du Fei still had.

  "Oh, so Brother Jin San is also out to have some fun. I'm glad I've found a companion this time. I was bored at home with nothing to do, so I came out to travel and explore. It's really fate that I get to meet Brother Jin San this time, haha." After finishing speaking, the two of them looked at each other and laughed happily.

  "It seems I also have a companion now, where are you planning to go next, Brother Ji Tian?" Du Fei asked.

  "Hmm? I'm not quite sure about this either. The Zhongde Province's Control Yuan conference is going to be held in a few days, why don't we go take a look? What do you think?" asked Zu Ji Tian.

  "What's Konta Conference? What is that? Never heard of it, explain?" Du Fei asked in doubt.

  "Oh, so the Kontroller Conference is actually a competition for Kontrollers, huh? It's a grand event that only takes place every two years. The participants are all students from municipal element academies, and it's also a talent selection conference for the Royal Element Academy. Now, with the provincial competitions, students who rank in the top ten will have the opportunity to participate in the Royal Kontroller Conference. Those who can enter the Royal Kontroller Conference are truly exceptional individuals. If one can achieve good results at the Royal Kontroller Conference and be noticed by the Royal Academy, then their future prospects would be boundless!" Zong Ji Tian said with a hint of excitement.

  "Oh, so it's a fighting tournament after all. Simply put, it's about seeing who's the best at fighting." Du Fei laughed and said.

  "Haha, Jin San brothers are really humorous, it can also be said that way, but the conference also has rules, age must be under twenty years old. How about it? Does Jin San brother have interest in participating?" asked Zu Ji Tian.

  "Oh, can I join too?" Du Fei asked.

  "Ah, as long as you're under twenty years old, whether or not you're a student at the academy, you can participate. However, the prerequisite is that you must be a Control Master." Zong Ji Tian smiled and said.

  "Haha, that's great! I love fighting the most." Du Fei said excitedly.

  "Hehe, it seems Jin San brothers are still interested, then join in." Zu Ji Tian smiled and said.

  "Alright, I'll go and participate then. Hey, what about you? You're a controller too, aren't you?" Du Fei asked.

  "Haha, I'm out of this one. I hate fighting and killing the most. I'll just be a spectator." Zujitian smiled and said.

  "Hehe." Du Fei smiled foolishly at this time, and asked somewhat embarrassed: "I don't know if Brother Ji Tian knows or not, but I signed up to participate in the place above. This is my first time coming here, I'm not familiar with the road."

  "It's nothing much, let's go now, what do you think?" asked Zu Ji Tian. After finishing speaking, the two of them got up and rushed to the registration location.

  It's not surprising that the two of them walking on the street attracted a lot of attention, especially Zujitian. His appearance can be described as perfect and flawless, one of the rare handsome ones in the world. With his elegant and refined attire, he exuded an air of classic elegance and kindness, causing some girls on the street to glance at him from time to time. As for Du Fei, he was originally a bit darker-skinned, with a mischievous look on his face, and a slightly fierce expression that made him seem like a little rascal. However, he was also considered a big handsome guy, just not quite as good-looking as Zujitian. Du Fei couldn't help but laugh at the silly looks on the girls' faces when they saw Zujitian, and the two of them didn't pay much attention to it, continuing on their way to the registration site.

  "Wow, there are so many people here! At least a hundred people are lining up." Du Fei said, looking at the long queue in front of him.

  "Hehe, not too much, these are just some ordinary controllers without any sect or school, just hoping to make a name for themselves through this kind of selection." Zu Ji Tian stood beside Du Fei, waving the folding fan in his hand.

  "Oh, you're saying all these people are Controllers?" Du Fei looked at Zu Ji Tian with a surprised expression. Zu Ji Tian didn't respond, only nodding in indication.

  "Oh, I didn't expect to see so many controllers at once." Du Fei gazed at the crowd in front of him, all of whom were around 17 or 18 years old, with some as young as 13 or 14.

  "Is it just these people who are participating? There are only over a hundred people." Du Fei asked again.

  "Not just that, these are just some of the controllers who haven't joined the academy yet. There are many more people participating from the municipal branch schools in each city. Think about it, Zhongde Province has over a dozen cities, and each municipal school has at least a hundred students. Just think about how many people there are in this tournament alone, not to mention those outside of the academies." Zujitian put away the folding fan in his hand.

  "Oh, how did you know so much?" Du Fei asked.

  "Hehe, it's not that I know a lot, but rather you don't know enough. Countries are all roughly the same when it comes to selecting talent." Zujitian said.

  "Oh, it seems like we still have to queue. All the people in front are controllers, and it's not even possible to cut in line." Du Fei said with some disappointment.

  "It's okay, it'll be your turn soon, just wait in line slowly, I'll wait for you at the tea shop next door." Zu Ji Tian said as he pointed to a nearby tea shop.

  "Alright, you go ahead. I'll come find you later." As he spoke, Du Fei scanned the crowd in front of him, but didn't see anyone who caught his interest.

  "Ahh!" A loud shout was heard, and a burly man threw out a young man of about twenty years old, slamming him to the ground. The young man who had been thrown looked up at the burly man with a swollen face. The burly man glared at him, pointing his finger and shouting: "You little brat is tired of living, you've already exceeded the age limit for registration, and you still claim to be only in your teens! Today I'm letting you off easy, so get out of here quickly!"

  The man who was thrown out immediately slunk away with a dejected look on his face. The crowd also began to discuss the matter heatedly. Just then, the robust man raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and instantly the crowd stopped talking and looked at him.

  "If anyone is over twenty years old now, please give up registration immediately. Otherwise, when the time comes and you are discovered, like that person just now, the consequences will be more severe. Our organizing committee does not have so much time to waste with you here." The speaker was the sturdy man.

  As soon as the strong Han finished speaking, everyone began to discuss heatedly. Several young men who looked older than they should be walked out of the crowd, one of whom was even more ridiculous with a full beard and still came to sign up. Du Fei saw this and couldn't help but laugh silently in his heart.

  After what just happened, the crowd on the scene is almost as old as Du Fei now. Some people look even younger than Du Fei. Du Fei looked at the crowd again.

  Du Fei waited in line for over ten minutes before finally reaching the registration desk.

  "Who are you, how old are you, what realm are you in, and what elements do you possess?" A woman who appeared to be over thirty years old said with a very cold tone. Du Fei's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this, but he still followed the woman's request and replied: "My name is Jin San, I'm seventeen years old, I'm at the Gathering Core realm, and my elements are fire and lightning." Du Fei had directly stated his two elements because he didn't want to stir up too much trouble, nor did he want people to know too much about him. He was afraid that if he became famous, it would bring unnecessary trouble, so he lied about being seventeen years old.

  When Du Fei mentioned his element, the woman quickly raised her head, revealing a face of astonishment as she stared at Du Fei. With a slightly surprised tone and a smile, she asked: "You... you're a Sky Walker? Fire and Thunder dual elements." Du Fei saw the woman's astonished expression and also felt a hint of disgust, silently cursing: "This dog-eyed thing finally knows my greatness." Du Fei said: "En, yeah, what about it?"

  The woman, after hearing Du Fei's affirmative answer, immediately stood up and whispered something to the burly man. Before long, the burly man politely invited Du Fei into the house. Du Fei followed the big man into the house. The big man warmly smiled at Du Fei and said: "Hehe, I wonder if you can show me the element you control? If it's true as you say, then you can directly enter the preliminary round and don't need to participate in this primary selection match."
