I Can See Your Combat Power

Chapter 712: Chapter 6: Conclusion (seeking monthly votes~~)

The people in the hall looking at Tang Luo, who was slumped back in his chair and not uttering a word, were filled with admiration, especially Third Elder Tang Zhenghao. Watching his nephew about to lose an arm, how much feeling did he suppress just to not interfere? Despite his countless faults, no one among the younger generation could surpass him in fortitude. He didn’t change expression even when his right arm was crushed. This stubbornness was both admirable and heartbreaking.

The elders never doubted Tang Luo’s ability to crushed Tang Qingshan’s arm, so they believed Tang Luo’s decision to let go was a concession made for the greater good. Faced with Tang Qingshan’s stubborn denial, if Tang Luo exerted force again, he would seriously injure his arm, just as the Third Elder predicted. The young warrior exchange program in September would be impossible for a talisman with a broken arm to participate in. Tang Qingshan’s stubbornness would only weaken the overall strength of Longxi. Yet while the elders wouldn’t blame Tang Luo if he chose to exert more force to assert his authority, they felt relieved when he chose to let go instead. No one would consider this a sign of weakness.

A warrior who didn’t neglect his clansmen because of his own strength was the future the family could rely on. Tang Luo’s maturity exceeded that of his older cousins Tang Yao and Tang Qingshan. The elders also understood. Every outstanding youth yearned for recognition from the clan. But once a desire became urgent, it could easily distort one’s actions. Tang Qingshan and Tang Yao, once considered steady up-and-comers, had not performed satisfactorily in the council today.

The Third Elder stood up and took out a creation pill to heal Tang Qingshan’s arm injury. He looked at his stunned nephew and reprimanded, “What are you dazed about? Go and thank Minister Luo.”

If Tang Qingshan didn’t understand Tang Zhenghao’s intentions earlier, now he did completely. Regret and guilt entangled him, causing the tower-like warrior to bow his head.

“Does anyone else have an opinion?” Clan leader Tang asked at the right moment. After receiving silent approval from everyone in the council, he turned to the startled Tang Luo and announced, “Then, this responsibility of team leadership is yours, Minister Luo.”

Tang Luo was dumbfounded to find the team leadership position, which he thought was lost due to his rashness, had returned to him.

“Martial Saint Mountain has given our clan five places. Minister Luo, you will choose the remaining four team members. Kunwu County is tens of thousands of miles away from the western border. To make it to the ‘Longzhou Youth Martial Arts Conference’ at the beginning of September, we must set off in early August at the latest. Minister Luo, it will be hard on you for this month!”

If someone else were taking on the team leader’s responsibility, the elders would deliberate on how and who to select. However, with Tang Luo in charge and their understanding of his capabilities, they felt they only needed to hand over the matter.

After all, with the ability to see through spiritual power, the information Tang Luo alone could gather from Kunwu County almost surpassed the combined total the wind media mobilized by the clan could gather. The elders only needed to wait in the clan for a surprise.

The appointment of the team leader was settled with the emergence of Tang Luo. Tang Yao and Tang Qingshan, the most competitive candidates, were subdued by Tang Luo. Though they were displeased, this is how warriors are.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

Despite feeling superior to Tang Luo in other skills, in the face of such an overwhelming gap in martial arts strength, their merits seemed insignificant.

The news that Tang Luo had emerged and would lead the team to the Longzhou Youth Martial Arts Conference returned the forgotten prodigy of Tang family to the public eye in a more domineering manner.

This reappearance caused a stirring of numerous undercurrents and storms.

No one expected Tang Zhi to hand over the task of selecting team members directly to Tang Luo, making the remaining four places a delicacy in the eyes of every clan.

This was the first time the entire western part of Longzhou had received an invitation from Martial Saint Mountain. How much attention those who could go along would receive goes without saying, and their clan would also reap many benefits.

If they could win good positions and return, they would almost become heroes of the new alliance. After gaining the shared martial arts and secrets from the Tang family, many families felt strong and were struggling to find an opportunity to showcase themselves. Upon hearing the news, all of them took action.

The gifts congratulating him on his emergence and the greeting cards from various families almost filled the front room of the North Mountain Sect Head Mansion. Families with good information knew that Tang Luo had returned to North Mountain, and all of them visited under the guise of gift-giving, hoping for a chance to meet him.

Well-prepared for this scene, Tang Luo was unruffled. He asked Chang Fu to return all gifts and greeting cards untouched, and sent back a message. All the clans wanting to give gifts immediately retreated.

But while dealing with outsiders was easy, dealing with clansmen was truly daunting, especially those aunts who got along well with Xu Shuhui. Upon hearing of Tang Luo’s emergence, they visited daily with their daughters, saying they wanted to see their nephew whom they hadn’t seen in two years. But what need was there to bring their daughters along to see their nephew? Their intentions were clear to all.

But Tang Luo couldn’t rudely rebuff these friends of his mother, and he found it hard to bear their matchmaking stares.

Tang Luo was nineteen this year, an age by which young people usually married, but he hadn’t even arranged for a betrothal yet. These aunts, claiming to be helping Xu Shuhui with her worries, said they wanted to choose a spouse for Tang Luo. Frustratingly, his father Tang Sen actually agreed.

Obeying their parents’ orders, and with Tang Sen’s agreement, the aunts became even bolder, bringing various young ladies in and out of the mansion every day, adding a touch of liveliness and fragrance to the usually tranquil house.

What left Tang Luo speechless was that these young ladies the aunts brought seemed to be unafraid of strangers. Moreover, some martial arts-practicing girls made inappropriate requests incessantly!

“Tang’s brother, I’ve also practiced martial arts since I was young, can you take me to the Youth Martial Arts Conference?”

Seeing these girls in front of him performing their dances, Tang Luo could only responsibly tell them the truth: “You’re not strong enough to come along. If you go on stage, your brains will be beaten out!”

After several young ladies were scared and ran away crying, no more girls dared to ask Tang Luo to take them to Kunwu County.

But there were some persistent young ladies. They had decided their life goals from the start, and looking at all of the young men in the entire western part of Longzhou, was there a more qualified groom than Tang Luo?

Born into nobility, extremely talented, strong martial arts, excellent leadership abilities, and commanding several fierce realms before he turned twenty. Also possessing the Righteous Business Group and Marshal Star Pavilion, rich in wealth and manpower, even the newly built Crystal City atop Red Cloud Mountain was said to belong to him.

All these factors turned Tang Luo into a walking aphrodisiac in the eyes of some young ladies, firing up their desires at a single glance.
