Chapter 25 - Blocked by Zhao

The news that Ye Fan received the beast control examination card from Nanchen Martial Arts Academy and decided to participate in the third beast control examination disappeared and spread quickly.

The three major aristocratic families, the five major wealthy families, the major guilds, and many large and small families in Luyang City were all shocked by the news.

If Ye Fan was just a nobody two days ago, no one would care

But now Ye Fan is already at the top of the Luyang Mansion Joint Examination's unparalleled list of martial arts and runes. His reputation has skyrocketed, far surpassing the former martial arts genius Zhao Feiyang and the Mu family's daughter Mu Bing, a genius rune girl.

Almost every household among the millions of people in Luyang Prefecture has heard of his name and is talking about it with great enthusiasm. Anyone who doesn't know Ye Fan's name would be ashamed to talk to him

Ye Fan's every move naturally attracts attention

Ye Fan is about to take part in the third beast control examination, which immediately shakes the sensitive nerves of many families. Ye Fan has already won the important rankings of martial arts and runes. Isn't he still satisfied? Want to win more top spots? How many wealthy families will this harm?

All the families, big and small, kept their lights on all night long, urgently discussing countermeasures.

The wealthy Zhao family is holding an emergency closed-door meeting with senior officials.

On both sides of the solemn palace hall, dozens of huge red candles were burning "pipipipiba"

The fiery red light reflected the uncertain and heavy-looking faces of the Zhao clan members in the hall.

They were all worried, nervous and angry

If there is any family in Luyang Mansion that is at odds with Ye Fan, then it is none other than the wealthy Zhao family. The Zhao family has offended Ye Fan time and time again. The Zhao family never wants Ye Fan to get higher and higher in the joint entrance examination.

This emergency closed-door meeting of the Zhao family was specifically held for Ye Fan.

The head of the Zhao family's wealthy family, as well as more than a dozen prestigious elders in the family, the chief manager of the Zhao family, etc. were all present.

There are even Zhao Feiyang, a direct descendant of the younger generation, and Zhao Xing, a side disciple. Because the two of them were Ye Fan's classmates at Nanchen Martial Arts Academy for three years and knew Ye Fan best, they also made an exception to attend this emergency family meeting.

"I believe everyone knows why this emergency family meeting was held, right?!

Zhao Donglai, the head of the Zhao family, was about forty years old. He was sitting on the head of the family with a calm demeanor. His face was stern, and his solemn eyes swept over all the clan elders present one by one, and he said slowly

"thump!

Zhao Feiyang knelt down in front of Zhao Donglai, the head of the Zhao family, his eyes were red, and he cried loudly.

"Master, please make the decision for Feiyang! This Ye Fan has gone too far to deceive others. He has been pretending to be a waste in Nanchen Martial Arts Academy for three years and deceived everyone. Everyone thought he was a waste, so much so that I couldn't stand it before the exam. I didn't know anything about him. I didn't expect him to burst out in the examination room and steal my top spot. If I had known in advance that this guy was so insidious, I would have sent someone to break his legs so that he couldn't even enter the examination room. The head of the family ! The hatred between me and him is irresolvable. We must suppress him no matter what, otherwise he will definitely take revenge on our Zhao family when he grows up in the future.

Zhao Feiyang has always had regrets in his heart

On the last day of graduation, he snatched away his girlfriend Cao Shanshan, the third most beautiful girl in Luyang Mansion, from Ye Fan. He originally thought of simply getting rid of Ye Fan.

But Cao Shanshan and Ye Fan were childhood sweethearts and did not want to see Ye Fan become disabled. So he felt soft-hearted for a moment, thinking that Ye Fan was a waste and there was no need to do anything extra, so he didn't send anyone to destroy Ye Fan.

As a result, the next day, Ye Fan took away his first place in the martial arts department, making him the biggest laughing stock of Luyang Mansion.

It's too late to take action now. City Lord Jiang and Dean Mu are protecting Mark. He regrets it.

"Get up, Ye Fan takes away your martial arts ranking. This is not just your personal grudge! It also hurts the face of my Zhao family, and the impact is extremely bad!

Zhao Donglai said expressionlessly

"In the first martial arts assessment, Ye Fan took away Feiyang's martial arts ranking and crushed Feiyang mercilessly. This happened so suddenly, no one could have expected that such an outrageous thing would happen, and neither did we. can be stopped in time

Although he tried to overturn his assessment results at the night banquet afterwards, it was already too late and the best opportunity to suppress him was missed. This incident was an accident and I will not hold anyone responsible.

As for the second rune system assessment, although Ye Fan stated in advance at the martial arts night banquet that he would participate in the rune system assessment, because Mu Bing, the "number one rune genius in Luyang Mansion", was going to participate in the assessment, none of us could do it. Take him seriously and wait to see the joke

In these two assessments, various wealthy families, including our Zhao family, did not make any reaction before the examination, and did not deliberately suppress Ye Fan.

The result was beyond everyone's expectation. Ye Fan once again showed off his amazing talent in the rune system, surpassing Mu Bing, the direct heir of the Mu family, to take the top spot in the rune system.

A young man from a poor family was able to win the first place in the joint examination of the top ten junior martial arts academies in Luyang Prefecture, both in the martial arts department and the rune department. His meteoric rise was unstoppable! This is already a miracle that Luyang Mansion has only seen in the past hundred years.

If Ye Fan participates in this third beast control system assessment and wins the first place in the three rankings, then it has never happened in the entire history of Luyang Mansion. It is not an exaggeration to call him the number one genius boy in Luyang Mansion for a thousand years. It will inevitably cause Dramatic changes in Luyang Mansion

Even twenty or thirty years from now, in addition to the eight wealthy families in Luyang Mansion, there will probably be a ninth wealthy family - the Ye family. This will inevitably greatly squeeze the interests of other wealthy families! This Luyang Mansion covers hundreds of miles, and there are eight aristocratic families and wealthy families. It is already very crowded, and new wealthy families cannot be allowed to rise again.

Moreover, I, Mrs. Zhao, and Ye Fan are at odds with each other. Once the ninth wealthy family appears, it will have the worst impact on my Zhao family.

After the family leader Zhao Donglai finished speaking in a deep voice, he looked at the elders of the clans with a solemn expression, "What do you elders think of this?"

The first clan elder said sternly and angrily, "This kid Ye Fan has taken away the top spot in Feiyang's martial arts department and is sworn in with our Zhao family. We will definitely suppress him to death."

Originally, with the strength of our wealthy Zhao family, it would be easy to deal with a humble warrior. We could easily crush him to death by sending a few people over.

However, after the runes department exam, three adults, Lord Jiang Tianpeng, Dean Mu Fengshan, and President Cao Ling, appeared at the Ye family together, and even sent troops to station outside the Ye family. This made it clear that they would support Ye Fan together and did not want anyone in the Luyang Mansion. Anyone touches him

In this case, we can't do it forcefully, we can only start from this beast control system assessment

My opinion is to find a way to sabotage his third beast control assessment and make him fail. He has already won the top spot on both lists. We must not let him win the top spot on the third list.

Otherwise, if he becomes the number one martial arts genius in Luyang Mansion for a thousand years, Luyang Mansion will be shaken up and down, and all the small families and small wealthy families will inevitably rush to fawn over him. A new force will definitely form in ten or twenty years, and they will have to deal with him then. It's going to get very troublesome!

A family elder next to him expressed doubts: "First clan elder, Ye Fan is not that good! He has already won the first place in martial arts and runes. How can he still have the energy to distract himself from learning and control?" Beast type, to win the third top spot?

"That's right! I also doubt why he should get the top spot on the third list!

"Let's not scare ourselves, okay?

"Feiyang is quite talented. He competes for the top spot in a department and has been training to death. Even though Ye Fan is great, it has been rare for hundreds of years to win the first place on both lists. How could he win three more? Top of the list?

"I don't think the young candidate who can take the first place in the three rankings in Luyang Prefecture has been born yet!

The elders of all the families were very disdainful.

They don't want to believe from the bottom of their hearts that Ye Fan can be so strong in more than three categories and get the first place on the list.

"Elders of the clan, be silent!

The head clan elder's face darkened and he shouted: "Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the unexpected! Our Zhao family's position as the top of the five wealthy families is not achieved by gambling on luck. We must make pre-judgments for the most unfavorable situations.

Moreover, before the rune assessment, no one would have thought that he, a little commoner, could win the first place in the rune department. But he happened to surpass Miss Mu Bing and take the top spot, even catching the Mu family off guard.

This is enough to illustrate a huge problem. That is to say, we cannot treat this kid Ye Fan as an ordinary person.

We can't take any chances and think that he doesn't understand the beast control system and let him take the beast control test. Let him win the top spot in the beast control department

We have to assume that Ye Fan is the number one candidate with the strongest talent in the beast control department, and no one can compare with him. And what our Zhao family has to do is to do our best to prevent him from winning the top spot in the beast control system.

The first clan elder's words immediately shocked all the clan elders, and they looked solemn.

"The first clan elder is right! We cannot take it lightly!

"But, how can we prevent Ye Fan from taking the top spot in the beast control department?

A clan leader came up with an idea: "Let's bribe all the examiners and modify Ye Fan's assessment results of the beast control department. What about this strategy? In this case, no matter how good Ye Fan's results are, he will not be able to win the first place on the list.

Immediately, other clan elders shook their heads and objected: "No, this strategy will never work. Paper can't stop the fire. Once word spreads, the examiners will tamper with the candidates' scores privately, which will seriously affect the reputation of Luyang House. Dean Mu Fengshan is This cannot be allowed to happen.

"Then let's settle for the next best thing and start with the beast control test questions. We asked the examiner to come up with a super difficult test question that Ye Fan couldn't answer! As long as the examiner changes the test question and increases the difficulty of the test question, it will be easy to operate. .

"This method works! Even if others question it, it's just that this year's exam questions are particularly difficult, and others have no right to interfere with the government's questions.

Many members of the Zhao clan thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

Playing tricks on the test paper is the easiest thing to do and the price you pay will be very small.

After hearing the opinions of the elders of the clan, Zhao Donglai, the head of the Zhao family, asked, "Who knows, what are the questions for the beast control department in the joint examination of the Tenth Academy of Luyang Mansion this year?

A clan elder immediately smiled and said, "I know this well. My youngest son Zhao Shulu is one of the five examiners of the Beast Control Department and participated in this year's Beast Control Department's proposition. This year's Beast Control Department's exam question is to identify the Beast Clan. Eggs. The Luyang Prefecture prepares hundreds of different winged beast eggs, land beast eggs, sea beast eggs, and even insect eggs for the candidates. Each candidate of the beast control department will get an egg. Identify the egg. Identify its type, and tell how to breed it, how to raise it, its temperament, various growth stages, and various uses. The more detailed the answer, the better.

The head of the family, Zhao Donglai, frowned slightly and asked doubtfully: "Can a test question of this level stump him?... I estimate that this kind of test question is just average for a genius candidate who is ranked first in the beast control department.

"That's right! If we assume that Ye Fan's strength in the beast control department is the best among the candidates in the top ten martial arts academies! Then this kind of test question is really difficult for him.

"We have to find a way to make the test questions significantly more difficult, so difficult that he can't even answer the questions!

"But what kind of test questions should be used? So difficult that he can't answer them at all?

The first clan elder and other clan elders all began to ponder.

For a time, the elders of all clans were a little worried

None of them studied the beast control system, they didn't know much about it, and they couldn't think of any good test questions at the moment.

If you can find a high-level and rare beast egg, you can also stump Ye Fan.

But the problem is that they don't have high-level rare beast eggs in their hands, only first-level to ninth-level beast eggs. Luyang Mansion is just a small city and there are no high-level beast eggs.

"what to do?

"What kind of test question can stump a bastard like Ye Fan?

Zhao Feiyang and Zhao Xing were also thinking hard

They have deep grudges with Ye Fan. One was deprived of the top spot in martial arts by Ye Fan, and the other was humiliated by Ye Fan in public and forced to bark like a dog.

They all wished that Ye Fan would be in bad luck, and of course they would not miss this precious opportunity for the Zhao family to attack Ye Fan.

Zhao Xing's eyes suddenly lit up and he thought of something, but he looked hesitant and did not dare to bring up any ideas at such a high-level family gathering.

Zhao Feiyang noticed Zhao Xing's hesitant expression and guessed that he had an idea, so he immediately winked at him and asked him to speak.

"Family head, clan elders! I have an idea.

Zhao Donglai, the head of the Zhao family, said with interest: "Oh, let's talk about it!

Zhao Xing then plucked up the courage and said loudly: "A few years ago, when we, the Zhao family's children, were playing in the Lieri Mining Area, we once discovered that the miners dug out a stone egg from deep in the mountain.

This stone egg is said to be an egg left by an ancient wild beast thousands of years ago. It has been buried in the mountains for a long time and has become a stone egg. It is not known what kind of stone egg it is. These wild ancient beasts have long since disappeared from the Shenwu Continent.

No matter how powerful Ye Fan is, he still can't tell what that stone egg is.

Even if he is lucky enough to recognize it, he has no way of knowing how to cultivate it, how to raise it, and what its temperament is. Because no one has ever raised wild ancient beasts in the Shenwu Continent.

No one in the entire Luyang Mansion can answer this question! Even if that guy Ye Fan is a genius, he will still be frustrated when faced with this kind of exam question!

When the clan elders heard this, their eyes suddenly brightened and they were amazed.

"High! The difficulty is definitely high enough. Identifying a wild stone egg millions of years ago is an impossible question!

"Zhao Xing, your idea is so cruel, it's absolutely brilliant!

"Yes! If it were any kind of animal egg nowadays, Ye Fan might be able to recognize it. But the stone eggs of such wild ancient beasts have long been lost, so how could he possibly identify them!

The elders praised loudly

Zhao Donglai immediately said: "Where is that stone egg now?

"I remember that the stone egg is in an abandoned ore warehouse in my Zhao family. Because it has no use and is not an ore material, it has been left in the corner without anyone caring about it. I know where it is, so I will go there find out!

Zhao Xing was praised by the family head and clan elders, his face flushed with excitement, and he hurriedly said

"Okay! After finding it, we immediately arranged for people from our Zhao family to put this stone egg into the examination questions of the beast control system. When the time comes for the assessment, we will send this stone egg to Ye Fan for identification. . I want to see how he can pass this unpassable beast control test even if he has a peerless talent! Let this kid see the consequences of being an enemy of my wealthy Zhao family, that is, in Luyang The house is struggling to move forward! Two days ago, our wealthy Zhao family just took a short nap, and this kid was lucky enough to take advantage of the loophole and get the top spot in the martial arts department and rune department. But now my Zhao family has set its sights on him. He must not have any illusions that he can get more first place!

Zhao Donglai stood upright on the head of the family's seat, with a look of disdain and an proud look on his face.
