Chapter 101: A Gathering of Experts
When Feng Shaojun and Feng Ning heard that Ling Ying was planning to recruit Wang Lun as his subordinate, they knew that Wang Lun would definitely refuse.
In their eyes, Wang Lun was a handsome man and a leader among the younger generation. How could he rely on others?
"I did not follow Mr. Jiang."
Wang Lun said that he was a distinguished guest here with Jiang Xiongfeng, not a follower.
Ling Ying thought that Wang Lun was rejecting his kindness in another way. He felt a little unhappy and had this expression on his face.
"The opportunity has been given to you. If you don't take advantage of it, you will be the one who suffers."
After taking a deep look at Wang Lun, Ling Ying walked away.
It has been made clear that if this young man is still stubborn and continues to follow Jiang Xiongfeng, he is stupid. He will not consider taking such a fool as his subordinate again.
After all, someone who can be his subordinate, Ling Ying, needs to be discerning. If this young man is not qualified, it will be useless to kneel down and beg him.
Tu Zhao, nicknamed the Eyebrowless Butcher, followed Ling Ying to the street. Before leaving, he couldn't help but lick his lips and looked back at Feng Ning, who had a good figure, with an impatient expression.
"Brother Ling, that girl looked excited just now. Is she the girlfriend of the young man you know?"
Tu Zhao asked. If so, that would be better. Playing with the girl in front of her boyfriend must be very exciting.
Ling Ying knew that Yanzhou, who was nicknamed the Wu Mei Butcher, was very lustful, so he reminded her, "That girl is the daughter of the Feng family, Feng Rulong."
"Tsk, tsk, I didn't expect it to be quite big."
Tu Zhao was not afraid at all, with a more lewd look on his face, hehe said, "The older the girl, the more fun it will be to play with."
Ling Ying ignored Tu Zhao and left with his people.
Tu Zhao glanced at Wang Lun again, already thinking about how to subdue Wang Lun and snatch the Feng family girl away.
"Feng Ning, that person has bad intentions for you, please be more careful next time you come out."
Wang Lun reminded him kindly.
Although Feng Ao is the only internal strength expert in the Feng family, there are many practitioners in the family, so it would be safer for Feng Ning to have more bodyguards to protect her when she goes out.
Feng Ning nodded.
Feng Shaojun said: "That man is from Yanzhou. His name is Tu Zhao. He is nicknamed the Butcher without Eyebrows. He started his career as a gangster and can do anything. Sister, we really need to be careful."
Several people walked into the handicraft store and started wandering around.
The next day, Wang Lun, Jiang Xiongfeng and their entourage came to the competition venue specially prepared by the village for the Heroes Meeting, in front of a building that looked like an unfinished building.
Everyone went directly to the basement door through the temporary passage. The door was heavily guarded to prevent irrelevant people from entering.
After all, what is about to be staged here is a bloody competition between the three city bosses in the arena, and tourists will not be allowed in casually.
In addition to having to check their identity, each tourist also has to pay 2,000 yuan to be eligible to enter.
Wang Lun and others had Jiang Xiongfeng come forward. He was a participant in this arena competition. Naturally, he did not have to pay. After entering, Wang Lun found that the entire basement was actually a hall, but all the walls, ceilings and floors were all black.
The metal-like color gives people a cold and chilling feeling.
Even the most conspicuous huge arena is made entirely of black metal, exuding an icy aura.
Wang Lun looked around and found that almost two-thirds of the nearly 1,000 seats were already occupied. It was very lively, and there were always long-legged pink girls wearing scantily clad clothes, carrying trays and inviting customers to place bets.
After all, tickets are only a small part of the income, and the majority is still in the betting money.
"Mr. Wang, please."
Jiang Xiongfeng wanted to invite Wang Lun to sit in the front row.
However, Wang Lun declined. Jiang Xiongfeng himself would sit on a seat similar to the rostrum, but those who really wanted to go on the ring did not have such rules. They could sit wherever they wanted. Wang Lun felt that the middle position had the best view.
I don't plan on going to the front row.
"Okay, I'll go there first."
Seeing this, Jiang Xiongfeng took Zhou Da up and sat on one of the main seats, while Zhou Da stood behind Jiang Xiongfeng.
As for Cao Fei and others, they also chose seats at random and sat down, just like Wang Lun.
After all, the security here is extremely strict, and there are men with sharp eyes patrolling around the place. They have bulging bags on their waists and are obviously carrying weapons, which intimidates everyone who comes here.
Here, no one dares to cause trouble, so there is no need to worry about safety issues.
The appearance of Jiang Xiongfeng did not cause much reaction at the scene. After all, compared with the other three forces in Tan City, Jiang Xiongfeng was less famous.
Feng Rulong then appeared, bringing with him a master, not Feng Ao, but a master of internal energy invited from outside. After that, big bosses from the three places appeared one after another.
"Look, it's Mr. Yao!"
When an old man wearing a Tang suit who looked very old appeared, it caused a lot of discussion.
This old man's kind-hearted look gave people a feeling of spring breeze. Many people showed respect when they saw him.
Mr. Yao, Yao Fenglei, may not be the most prominent figure in the three places, but he is the one with the gentlest approach among all the big guys. His approach can even be called kind.
As the largest family in Tan City, the Yao family is not keen on grabbing territory. In addition to strictly restraining his family, Mr. Yao also donates a lot of money every year, so it is natural for him to be respected.
Behind Mr. Yao, followed a beautiful young woman in her thirties with outstanding temperament. Many people at the scene looked at her.
This is Yao Rui, the youngest daughter of Mr. Yao. Before she got married, she was the undisputed number one beauty in Tan City. After she got married, she became even more charming as a young woman. However, no one dared to have any thoughts about Yao Rui.
In addition to the strength of the Yao family, more importantly, Yao Rui is the other master of internal strength in the Yao family besides Mr. Yao!
There are five internal energy masters before Tan Cheng, one from the Zhong family, one from the Feng family, plus Zhou Da, Mr. Yao, and the only female Yao Rui.
Wang Lun noticed that the Yao family did not invite other experts. It should be enough for Mr. Yao to be in charge.
After all, Yao Fenglei is a master of inner strength. In the past, the heroes would rarely take action, and they would definitely win if they did. Over time, no one would dare to take advantage of the Yao family's territory.
Of course, the Yao family has no intention of expanding its territory.
Perhaps among all the forces that have come, the Yao family is the most special.
After Yao Fenglei and Yao Rui took the seats, Tu Zhao and others also came, followed by Ke Xinge, but Wang Lun did not see any masters around Ke Xinge, and the man named Jin Jue did not accompany him.
"It's Changxing Lingying, he is indeed the finale!"
When the last person appeared, the loudest discussion broke out.
"Ling Ying is indeed the most powerful boss in Changxing, Tan City, and Yanzhou. This time, Ling Ying should be the host of the Heroes Meeting like the last time."
"Having him preside over it is a natural and well-deserved one."
Six years ago, Ling Ying shone in the Heroes Conference and rose to prominence. In the following years, he became unstoppable, even ousting some of Changxing's established forces. Three years ago in the Heroes Conference, Ling Ying took the center seat.
Location.
Presumably, Lingying will also be the winner this year.
"Who is the old man next to Ling Ying? I remember that the helper hired by Ling Ying last time was an evil leader who was invincible in the ring. I wonder how strong this old man is?"
"I heard that in this arena competition, more internal strength masters will appear, and the overall strength will be improved. I estimate that this old man will be stronger than the evil head three years ago."
People were also talking about the sallow-faced old man next to Ling Ying.
The old man looked terminally ill. His face was sallow and his muscles were very stiff.
However, no one dared to look down upon him. After all, he walked closely beside Ling Ying and kept pace with Ling Ying. It seemed that Ling Ying still respected him.
Wang Lun watched Ling Ying sit in the middle seat, looked around the row, and still found no trace of Jin Jue.
Jin Jue probably chose a seat at random and sat down just like him.
Later, people from the Zhong family in Tancheng also came, led by Zhong Hongtu, but Zhong Hongtu was obviously in low spirits.
Wang Lun knew the reason. After the Zhong family lost the master Zhong Ding, it was considered that its strength had been greatly reduced. Now it was being targeted by some forces, and his life was very difficult.
Although the Zhong family relied on their connections to recruit a helper, he would definitely be bullied at the gathering of heroes. It is strange that Zhong Hongtu could be happy.
Zhong Hongtu also spotted Wang Lun at this moment, his expression even more bitter, so he had to pretend he hadn't seen him and walked over quickly.
Not long after, all the forces arrived.
The total number of forces coming to participate in the Heroes Meeting from the three places is about fifteen, and they are probably the strongest groups in the three places.
Wang Lun didn't know how many internal strength masters appeared in the last arena competition, but this time, almost two-thirds of the forces had internal strength masters.
"Wang Lun, are you here?"
Feng Ning happened to come over at this time, so Feng Shaojun naturally followed his elder sister, and there were several practitioners beside him to provide protection.
"Let's come together, there's room here too."
Wang Lun greeted.
Feng Ning and Feng Shaojun sat down, and Feng Shaojun immediately asked: "Brother Lun, have you placed your bet?"
Among the fifteen forces, who is the biggest winner? This is very tempting and people want to know the answer. You can choose the force you are optimistic about by placing bets.
The Feng family siblings naturally chose the Feng family. As for other types of betting, they were not interested.
Wang Lun was more straightforward and did not place a bet at all.
He didn't know in advance that there was such an activity before the start of the arena match. He didn't have much money with him, and he was too lazy to ask anyone to borrow it. Besides, he was not interested in this kind of gambling. He came here to deal with Jin Jue and solve the trouble.
In the main seat, Ling Ying stood up first and picked up the microphone.
The whole place suddenly became quiet.
"Everyone, today is the day when we hold the Heroes Meeting in Changxing, Tancheng and Yanzhou. I won't say what the purpose of the Heroes Meeting is, but I hope that all forces can restrain themselves and put all the grudges and conflicts on the stage.
If anyone doesn’t follow the rules, don’t blame yourself for not being reminded in advance!”
