As we entered the military zone, the vehicles on the road nearly vanished.

The white birch forests on both sides of the road, however, were bathed in the morning sun.

But soon,

after entering the military zone, we saw a large number of fully armed soldiers standing at the checkpoint, the military vehicles lined up, and even the armored vehicles had their guns mounted.

“We’re here,”

just as the limousine stopped, Principal Wang noticed the vehicle ahead being checked and said softly to Pei Jinye, “It seems the Wei Family has already arrived. The rumors are indeed not unfounded. That person is called Wei Xianren, only a year younger than you, and is currently the core seedling of the Wei Family…

As for his talent, it’s unclear, but to receive such attention from that old fox of the Wei Family, he definitely has exceptional potential. Keep an eye out when you get the chance, but what’s most important is to focus on your own assessment.”

Pei Jinye glanced at the other party’s vehicle and nodded.

Principal Wang was about to say more, but suddenly heard the honking of a car horn behind him. He turned around and saw another vehicle approaching – a stylish sports car.

“So it’s him,”

Pei Jinye looked over with suspicion.

Principal Wang explained thoughtfully, “Gu Wutong, the grandson of the Municipal Governor who just took office, has been training outside. I didn’t expect him to return to Da Peng City. Be careful around him, this little monster was sent to be nurtured by the military department and is said to have been able to participate in combat missions independently at the age of 13.”

“Sending a 13-year-old to kill, aren’t they worried about psychological issues?” Pei Jinye’s face showed a trace of perplexity.

Principal Wang shook his head, “13 is actually considered late. In places like Dragon City and Xindu, those prominent families might start training from a young age. The cruel law of the survival of the fittest has always been their style. Sometimes I feel quite sorry for these kids, but they indeed enjoy what most people cannot.”

Pei Jinye’s face displayed complete bewilderment, clearly not feigned.

However, in fact, among those he had devoured, some came from the Federation Research Institute’s Light Sword, and they were from rich families in their childhood and naturally understood these things.

With his current identity, he had no access to the prominent families of the larger places.

“Are they striving for glory or for themselves?”

Principal Wang sighed softly, “We cannot understand the glory of the great families. Perhaps this has something to do with their proximity to the [Star Ring].”

He looked at Pei Jinye, “When you are strong enough, you will naturally have an answer in your heart.”

Soon,

Pei Jinye presented his identification, and the convoy passed through the checkpoint.

Before reaching the base,

Principal Wang got out of the car, accompanying Pei Jinye at the entrance of the base, waiting for inspection.

At that moment in front of the base gate, Wei Xianren did not get out of the car; the Wei Family’s people were gathered in front, seemingly not trusting the military’s security forces, which caused a few military officers to take several more glances.

Gu Wutong, the grandson of the Municipal Governor, on the other hand, carried a long and narrow sword over his shoulder and strode forward confidently. Seeing Principal Wang, he smiled and said, “I wondered why I ran into magpies this morning; turns out it’s because I saw you, Old Wang. Is this your disciple?”

As he spoke, his gaze naturally fell on Pei Jinye, full of curiosity.

Principal Wang forced a smile and looked at him, “Without the old man around, you start to lack respect, don’t you?”

Gu Wutong laughed heartily, “With the relationship between us, are we still concerned about these cumbersome formal titles? But aren’t you going to introduce this young brother?”

He probed with a cheerful smile, “Power Practice or Exfoliate? Brother, you look skinny, but somehow, you give off the vibe of a Humanoid Beast. If there’s personal combat, how about we team up and make a move?”

Pei Jinye slowly raised his head and looked over, with a clean and innocent smile showing between his teeth.

“You’re not afraid I’ll hold you back?”

The wind howled, and the roar of the helicopter’s blades echoed in the distance.

All around the base, people raised their heads to look, a black heavy-duty helicopter piercing through the clouds and slowly approaching.

Gu Wutong wore a profoundly mysterious smile, standing beside Principal Wang, “Do you know who’s coming?”

Principal Wang did not turn his head, merely gazing into the sky as the small black dot drew ever closer.

Leaning in, Gu Wutong whispered, “During the 111 Incident, the Judgement Place lost an elite disciple while trying to eliminate several key members of the Old Gods Association. Two of the twelve seats from the Judiciary have arrived today, said to be carrying the will of the Judgement Place. As for whether they’re here to settle accounts, only the heavens know.”

Principal Wang swiftly turned around and looked at him, “Are you sure?”

Gu Wutong grinned broadly, his expression inscrutable, “Old Wang, your Da Peng City has really made a name for itself this time around. Do you know whose man it was that died?”

“His surname is Zhao, supposedly given by The Great Priest himself. I also heard Xu Tian might get punished this time… Compared to Zhao Qianfeng, his backers are indeed a bit lacking, especially since he didn’t leave a single survivor. I wonder if he’ll be able to keep the skin on his body.”

Principal Wang fell silent, giving him a dubious glance but said nothing.

Gu Wutong raised his head towards the high-flying helicopter, its giant blades like the wings of a black behemoth shattering the surrounding clouds.

“Isn’t the helicopter from the big places quite impressive?” Gu Wutong, staring at the slowly landing helicopter inside the base, made a teasing remark, his tone faintly mocking.

Principal Wang turned his head and whispered, “If you’re looking to give the old man some trouble in his later years, keep talking.”

Gu Wutong stuck out his tongue playfully, then carried his sword and walked on.

Passage had begun at the front.

Principal Wang pulled Pei Jinye, who was about to enter, and whispered, “That kid speaks without thinking; best not to get too close to him. People from the Judiciary are all sticklers for the rules; it’s best not to provoke them if you can avoid it, for crossing them would mean cutting off half of your future path.”

Pei Jinye nodded, taking the warning to heart.

Just as he was about to leave, a white-haired youth brushed past him. He looked up, but the other person seemed not to notice and radiated a chilling aura.

Principal Wang spoke softly, “He’s a special Transcendent; no wonder the Wei Family is so concerned. Be careful when you go in.”

Pei Jinye nodded, handed over his exam permit, and after passing iris verification, he set foot for the first time in his life into a military stronghold, surrendering all related electronic devices.

Fully armed soldiers led the three of them into the adjoining room.

“Bro, is this solitary confinement? Isn’t that a bit much?” Gu Wutong didn’t consider himself an outsider, carrying his sword in one hand and stuffing the other into his pocket, blocking the way of the soldier.

The soldier looked at him expressionlessly, “This is regulation. If you don’t accept it, you can opt out now.”

Gu Wutong pouted and said, “Alright, alright, you’re the boss. Fine, I’ll just stand against the wall in a horse stance.”

The soldier, unfazed, then turned to Pei Jinye and Wei Xianren, “You two wait here. It’s 9:19 am now. Someone will naturally contact you before the half-hour is up. If there’s anything you need, just call out; we won’t make things difficult for you.”

After saying that, he left the room.

Pei Jinye chose the nearest chair and sat down calmly, looking around him.

The empty room bore only three simple words—

“Waiting Area!”

The helicopter descended under everyone’s gaze.

The Municipal Governor and the Military Department’s high-ranking officials craned their necks in anticipation, someone was waving through the thick glass of the chopper, and Xu Tian looked over in surprise. He had been ready to face a storm but didn’t expect the atmosphere of this first meeting to be less serious than he had imagined.

But the fog was too dense, and it was hard to tell who was waving at first glance.

Soon.

The helicopter’s door slowly opened.

The Municipal Governor withdrew his gaze, murmuring softly, “They’re here.”

Those around him straightened up considerably, making ready to welcome the newcomers.

Xu Tian also took a deep breath.

But then he heard the Municipal Governor whisper in his ear, “Don’t be nervous.”

Xu Tian turned to look, his expression one of puzzlement as he eyed the Municipal Governor. He didn’t think they had any sort of connection, but since the other was willing to speak to him, he thought for a moment and replied softly, “I’m just worried those inside won’t accept our explanation.”

“What’s to be, will be.”

Xu Tian was startled, but as he looked up, the Municipal Governor had already put on a smile and stepped forward to greet them.

Xu Tian took a deep breath and then saw through the chopper’s glass that two high-profile members of the Federation’s judiciary sat with stern expressions in their seats, yet they hadn’t made a move to disembark.

The quiet cabin door was open, yet no one got off.

Suddenly, a chill ran through everyone from the Governor of Da Peng City downward.

“Step…step…”

Footsteps approached.

The Governor of Da Peng City was taken aback, then his complexion drastically changed, as if he had spotted some extremely significant personage making a personal visit.

Quickly composing himself, he hurried forward.

“Mr. Han.”

Under everyone’s watchful eye, a man whose appearance and demeanor seemed utterly ordinary emerged at the door of the cabin. If not for the telltale monocle hanging on one side and the Governor’s address of “Mr. Han,” many people might not yet have realized what was happening.

A chill settled in Xu Tian’s heart.

It was him!

In the Federation Five Continents, there are thirteen seats for council members, and to be one of them one must be a significant figure in the Federation. The man before him was the personal secretary of one such council member, famously known as “Manager Han.”

And yet, Da Peng, an insignificant place in Central State, had prompted the personal arrival of such a secretary to the council member. It was something to ponder deeply.

Xu Tian stood among the crowd, his gaze filled with reverence as he looked upon the man who from head to toe was the picture of meticulousness.

His heart sank abruptly.

The reasons for Mr. Han commanding such fear from everyone present wasn’t just due to his status as a council member’s secretary; more importantly, almost all matters big and small in Central State were handled by this man, with the council member nearly retired from the public eye.

This time, the command authority for the operations in Da Peng City was almost entirely in his hands. Should there be any accountability, he couldn’t escape it.

Moreover, even his master had to give way to Mr. Han.

“I just happened to be in the vicinity and decided to visit. Governor Zhou, you wouldn’t be unwelcoming, would you?” the man spoke softly, his gaze sweeping through slowly.

The Governor’s smile was exceedingly brilliant, “How could that be? We’ve been eagerly awaiting Mr. Han’s visit for guidance.”

“There’s not much to guide,” said the man, standing before the stairs, looking down upon the Governor and the others, his eyes moving past Xu Tian without lingering.

“Ladies and gentlemen, today’s main act isn’t me, but those three. It’s getting late; the evaluation can begin preparations now.”
