Chapter 34: Lone Star 1

  On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, before the Lantern Festival is over, the year has not yet passed, at least for big families like Mo's and for some people who have no worries about their livelihood. However, for ordinary common folk, they have basically started working again and are very busy.

  Some people are waiting for this period of time, wanting to make a fortune during this time, of course, just hoping!!

  There are still some people who need to start doing real things now, and they're big things, national events!!

  Longmen Tournament, Commoner Preliminary District!!

  The Longmen Election is not just for the aristocratic families, it's open to everyone. The aristocratic families or some nobles have a certain number of seats, and their constituencies are also separate from those of ordinary people, so there won't be any conflict between candidates from different backgrounds.

  This is not to show their differences, but they are afraid that they will occupy the people's elected representatives and use their power to suppress them. Such things will definitely appear more or less.

  After entering the national-level pre-selection, they will be mixed together, and at that time, there will basically be no more issues of power bullying, because the supervision will be the strictest, and no one can be special.

  Because no country wants to lose the qualification for the Dragon Gate match, they will send out the best talents, even if it's an ordinary person, with such talent, can become an extraordinary person in the future.

  However, it is rare for such talents to emerge among ordinary people, after all, they lack the conditions of later generations, and need to pay more efforts to make up for it.

  But, as long as one can enter the Longmen Competition, no matter what, they are all talents and will be absorbed by various parties. Later on, it's also a glory to be rich and noble, with the same flavor of jumping through the dragon gate. The Longmen Competition lives up to its name.

  The commoner's pre-selection is a bit earlier than that of the nobility, perhaps this is also to prevent someone from making trouble inside, those who can't enter the noble family will enter with the identity of a commoner, after all, the commoner's pre-selection has no restrictions, if a member of the noble family enters, it is also possible.

  However, generally speaking, this possibility is still very low, because the aristocratic families have their own glory, that is, face. If other aristocratic families mention this, they will feel ashamed.

  Sometimes, family dignity is more important than anything else!!

  At the same time, another point is that if you participate in the commoner's preliminary selection, it means that the honor you get will have nothing to do with your family, and others will no longer recognize you as a member of the aristocratic family.

  Generally, no one will participate twice. The reason is that if they are eliminated in the noble family, they will still be eliminated later and will only meet stronger ones, not weaker ones.

  And among the common people who win out, they will definitely encounter aristocratic families!!

  After the preliminary selections at both levels are completed, there will be a friendly match between commoners and noble families, which will not have any impact on the selection of personnel.

  It can be said that this friendly match is a performance match, which is for ordinary people to watch and celebrate.

  Of course, due to the large difference in strength, it is generally not a direct comparison of martial arts, but rather a comparison of wits and bravery. Perhaps it's also a warm-up, as when entering the national preliminaries, the first few rounds are mainly about competing in wits and bravery.

  No matter what the reason is, even if it's just a commoner's pre-selection, it's still a one-in-ten-thousand chance, so there will definitely be many people coming.

  Although today is the pre-selection after several rounds of elimination, the venue still has a bit of a crowded feeling. After several rounds of pre-selection, some people who were not noticed before have also begun to emerge.

  At this time, a young genius proudly stepped into the venue with big strides, and his arrival immediately caused people to cheer.

  This young man has a starry gaze and sword-like eyebrows, with white teeth and red lips. He is an extremely handsome young man, but the clothes he wears are not luxurious, just ordinary clothes. If he were to wear brocade or fine silk, this young man would be a refined and elegant noble son.

  And this young man is a kind of longing in everyone's heart, at least in the hearts of ordinary people, and even more so in the dreams of countless girls.

  It's just that, although he was born in a poor family, he has extremely high martial arts talent. Through his own cultivation, he can break through to the human rank at such a young age, which is indeed extraordinary.

  Even if one has acquired resources later in life, it's not necessarily possible to break through to the human level at this age, but he did it relying solely on himself. If he had acquired resources later in life, his progress would definitely not be like this.

  His future development will be infinite, and his prospects are also boundless!!

  With such an identity and talent, I don't know how many people's dreams have been carried. Ordinary people can't do it themselves, so they can only put their hopes on others who can achieve the things they dream of.

  The emergence of such a talented young man made the already lively pre-selection venue even more lively.

  The people who support the young man, shouting on the sidelines, make this young man even more proud. Pride is an emotion that can be undesirable at times, but sometimes it's necessary and a driving force.

  The pride of this genius boy in front of me doesn't know which kind it belongs to, but no matter what kind it is, he has the qualification to be proud.

  If nothing unexpected happens, this young man will become the first person in this civilian preliminary round. In Qingyun State, he is the best, and it can even be said that in the entire Tianfeng Country, there may not be anyone better than him.

  But this is an unexpected situation, sometimes if a genius's fate is not good, it will only be more tragic than ordinary people!!

  The young genius arrived at the venue for this match, and his opponent was already standing there, as if waiting for the arrival of this genius.

  When he saw his opponent clearly, he suddenly disappeared with the cry of a genius boy!

  There are only two possibilities in such a situation. One is that the opponent is even more astonishing than this talented young man, but here, it seems impossible, as the opponent's reputation is not higher than that of the talented young man.

  That's the second kind, where the other person's appearance has a calming effect on you. Generally, only breathtakingly beautiful women have this effect.

  That's right, it's this second one, a beautiful girl who takes your breath away!!

  The appearance of such a girl made everyone feel a little inexplicable. When did this pre-selection appear with such a girl, and why had they never heard of it before?

  With such an extraordinary appearance, it will definitely not be unknown!!

  As for the appearance of this young girl, everyone's first thought was that she must be a mischievous young lady from some noble family, only someone like that would not be known to anyone.

  Throughout history, there have been many instances of noble ladies, like the greedy and playful Miss Da, appearing in commoner drafts. This is absolutely not the first time, nor will it be the last.

  Generally speaking, girls like them, even if they are mixed in such gatherings, everyone will only say that they are playful and won't say anything else. They seem to have this privilege since birth.

  Look at this girl's clothes, although they may not be the best, but they are not bad either. Especially the workmanship, these embroidery are very delicate, not something that ordinary people can have, must be a young lady from a certain family.

  Running into such a young lady from a noble family, the talented youth could only shake his head...

  Everyone is looking forward to it. Usually, a young lady from a wealthy family like this wouldn't have any real abilities and would be spoiled and troublesome. Maybe she'll even develop a romantic relationship with that talented young man!

  Such stories often appear in books, but there are also many examples in real life!

  I'm really looking forward to it...

  "You're late!" The girl spoke up, her tone was very calm, but the reproachful tone was also very obvious.

  "Uh, sorry about this, I'm running a bit late!!"

  The genius boy was indeed late, and not just a little late, but a full minute. From this, it can also be seen that he is somewhat proud of his achievements and thinks others should wait for him.

  "Let's get started!" The girl seemed unwilling to say anything more.

  The genius boy was choked by the girl's attitude, and those expectations seemed to have been shattered. He could only say with a smile: "Please!"

  "Please instruct me!" The young girl bowed and said.

  "Be careful, miss. I have cultivated..." The talented young man seemed to want to show off his magnanimity, wanting to inform his opponent of what he had cultivated.

  But what he didn't expect was that his opponent didn't seem to appreciate it and had already made a move, arriving right in front of him in the blink of an eye.

  Na Xuan's jade-like hand was already close to his body, he immediately stretched out his hand to defend...

  "Bang......"

  A figure flew out backwards...

  "Ah..."

  Everyone was stunned, looking at the scene in front of them and couldn't believe it, they never thought there would be such a result.

  Everyone stared blankly at the girl standing in the arena, who looked harmless and fairy-like on the surface.

  The girl slightly bowed her head and softly said: "I won!"

  Since the girl is standing here saying she won, then the figure that flew out must be that genius boy. The crowd's most acclaimed genius boy has actually lost, no wonder everyone is a bit unbelievable.

  The development of this matter is really too abnormal compared with what everyone thought!

  "Wait! It's not over yet!!" The genius boy who had flown out in reverse came back, refusing to acknowledge his defeat just now. Things had happened too quickly, and he felt that he had been ambushed.

  It's not just the genius boy who thinks so, others also think that the girl took advantage of the genius boy's words and launched a sneak attack, which is not allowed by the principles of the Dragon Gate competition.

  "You're already out of bounds, you've lost!" The girl said calmly, pointing to the spot where the boy had just landed. According to the rules of the Dragon Gate competition, being knocked out of the arena was also considered a loss.
