Chapter 31
I Will Open the Sky for All Living Beings
[Will of All Beings +25]
[Tianqin Sword]
[Sword Intent: Lv. 18 (12/18000)]
[Sword Technique: Starfire (Lv. 15)]
Will of All Beings: 37
After killing six evil cultivators, Su Yang had 37 wisps of the will of all living beings in his hand.
During this trip, his gains were not small.
With this will of all living beings, Su Yang tried to create a sword technique that could temper his body.
He received a response. After his sword intent reached level 30, he could use the will of all living beings to create body-tempering sword moves. In other words, it was enough to retain 30 wisps of living beings’ will. He could also use the will of all living beings to forge some special sword moves.
After killing six evil cultivators, Su Yang could finally return to the Martial Suppression Division to rest. He naturally did not need to worry about what happened next.
In the blink of an eye, it was the second day. At nine in the morning, Ma Wu sent someone to inform him that their assessment had ended and they could return to the prefecture capital’s inspection department to report.
As the matter in Yonghe City was not over yet, Ma Wu needed to stay here. However, he had already written a letter to the commander of the Patrol Department to let him rest assured.
After Su Yang found out, he packed up and prepared to leave. Just as he reached the door, a familiar voice and figure appeared.
“Good morning, Brother Su.” Ye Jiang waited at the entrance with a smile.
“Brother Ye… The assessment had ended, so what did it mean?” Su Yang was a little helpless.
“Brother Su, that’s not right. It’s as if I’m using you. I treat Brother Su as a friend.” Ye Jiang said unhappily.”
“That’s my fault. Let’s go, brother Ye, let’s return to the county city.”
Su Yang thought about it and agreed. In life, one had to have some friends. Since the other party took the initiative to befriend him and was not an unpardonable person, he did not have to be too wary.
“Haha… Let’s go.”
The two of them mounted their horses and rushed towards the county city. In less than four hours, he had returned to the county city.
After returning to the county capital, they immediately reported to the Patrol Department. When they arrived, guards also asked them to gather at the examination hall. The other examinees had already returned.
This was normal. Among everyone, Su Yang was the slowest. The others would not wait for Su Yang like Ye Jiang, so they naturally arrived first.
“Everyone, wait a moment. I’ll go inform the chief inspector now.” The official informed him and left in a hurry.
Everyone waited in the examination hall. The atmosphere was silent. Su Yang and Ye Jiang were the most relaxed in the arena.
The more Sun Tianpeng looked at Ye Jiang, the angrier he became. He already knew what had happened. Seeing Ye Jiang’s smug look, he couldn’t help but say, “What are you so proud of? I’m just a lackey who got a bargain.”
Ye Jiang said slowly, “Your brain is not good enough, but you still insist that others are not good enough. People who are not good are just unwilling to admit that they are not good enough. Don’t you think so, Brother Su?”
Su Yang remained silent. He was not sure about the relationship between these two guys, but they should be very familiar. It was a little like they were enemies.
“You said I can’t?” Sun Tianpeng said angrily. Then do you dare to compete with me?”
“I told you that your brain is not good, but you didn’t believe me. Did I say that your martial arts skills are not good enough?” Ye Jiang said slowly.
“Brother Sun, what’s the difference between you and barbaric bull?”
“We both know how to make the best use of our strengths and avoid our weaknesses, but you want me to attack you with my weaknesses. Do you think my brain is the same as yours?”
Ye Jiang wasn’t afraid of him at all. Although Sun Tianpeng had a fiery temper, there was one thing that Sun Tianpeng couldn’t do to him.
“Hmph, no means no. Some people just don’t want to admit that they can’t do it.” Sun Tianpeng also learned to be smart and used Ye Jiang’s words to refute him. Then, he shut his mouth. He wasn’t good with words, so it was better to speak less.
Sun Tianpeng glared at Ye Jiang before turning his head.
Ye Jiang was about to say something when footsteps came from outside. When he appeared in front of everyone, everyone restrained their thoughts and expressed their respect.
He was wearing the uniform of a chief inspector. When Su Yang saw this person, his eyes widened: Han Qiu!?
That’s right, this person was Han Qiu, who had interacted with Su Yang during the registration assessment.
When Su Yang was shocked, he clearly saw the corners of Han Qiu’s mouth curl up slightly. It was obvious that she was satisfied to see him shocked.
“This is Han Qiu, the current chief inspector. I already know about the assessment.”
“Su Yang and Ye Jiang have done well. They can be Four Directions Inspector.”
“The six of you will need to take the test again. This time, it will be simpler.”
“In the martial arts test, the strong will stay behind. If you want to be the Four Directions Inspector, you can’t do it without enough martial arts. Sometimes, the best thing to talk about is your fists.”
“Does anyone have any objections?” Han Qiu glanced at everyone.
“No, I haven’t.” The six of them shook their heads. This assessment was considered fair.
“In that case, let’s go to the Martial Arts Practice Field.” Han Qiu said firmly.
Then, everyone came to the martial arts field.
There were a total of four duels in a group of three. In just an hour, the battle ended.
The people who stayed behind were Sun Tianpeng and Ding Ziwu.
Sun Tianpeng had fought two rounds. This guy’s strength was not bad. He had already been holding back his anger, and both matches were settled by him in two or three moves.
Of course, for Su Yang, it was still a matter of one sword.
Ding Ziwu’s strength was not overwhelming, but his battle experience and movement techniques were not bad. He also won very easily.
There was no dispute about the two of them being selected as the Four Directions Inspector.
“This assessment ends here.”
“From now on, the four of you are the Four Directions Inspector.”
“Su Yang, Ye Jiang took the main credit for the assessment. In addition, he also discovered the evil cultivators hidden in Yonghe City.”
“Su Yang, you will be rewarded with 30,000 merit points and a top-grade treasure trove token.”
“Ye Jiang, you will be rewarded with 6,000 merit points and a middle three-grade treasure trove token.”
“Thank you, sir.” Su Yang and Ye Jiang thanked him.
When Han Qiu announced the reward, Sun Tianpeng, Ye Jiang, and Ding Ziwu were all shocked.
Putting Ding Ziwu aside, Sun Tianpeng and Ye Jiang were obviously from extraordinary families, but they were still shocked. It was enough to know how generous the reward was.
Only Su Yang didn’t feel anything. He just thought that it was good to have a reward. At least it wasn’t a compliment.
Han Qiu continued, “Next, you will have to take on the responsibility of monitoring the actions of the Tianfeng Prefecture’s Martial Suppression Division, corruption, bribery, and even living like a prince.”
“The Tianfeng County is in charge of the sixteen cities. Each of you will be in charge of four cities.”
“The first task I’ll give you is to lead people to supervise the four cities’ Martial Suppression Division, deal with all the accumulated cases, and resolve all the grievances of the people.”
“If there’s anything you can’t solve, you can tell me. But it must be completely resolved, do you understand?”
“Understood.”
The next step was to divide the cities. Because the three of them came from the county cities, they did not care which cities they managed.
However, Su Yang was different. He chose Pingshan City, Huangshan City, Linjiang City, and Kaiyang City. After making his choice, Su Yang’s eyes suddenly had a vision.
[Tianqin Sword]
[Sword Intent: Lv. 18 (12/18000)]
[Sword Technique: Starfire (Lv. 18)]
[Will of All Life: 34]
[Range: Pingshan City, Huangshan City, Linjiang City, Kaiyang City]
The new changes in the interface. At this moment, he was in the County City, but he could sense a thick layer of white gas above the four cities. So that the sky above the four cities could not see the sun.
This was Su Yang’s perspective, but he understood that this meant that many people were in a sea of suffering and had nowhere to seek justice.
Su Yang looked up at the sky with a firm gaze.
People say that swords are too hard and easy to break. I don’t believe you. I want to try. I have a sword that will open the sky for all living beings…
