The old man didn't have much flesh on his body and was as skinny as an old osprey, but his tanned face and short gray beard looked particularly energetic, and his pair of deep-set eyes were particularly bright. It was rare to see such sharp and bright eyes.
Bo Rui was so overwhelmed by the other party's powerful aura after just one glance that he felt a little breathless. He immediately looked away, not daring to look directly into the other party's eyes.
The others probably felt the same as him. They raised their heads, but immediately lowered them again.
Everyone became increasingly cautious and uneasy.
"Who among you has the courage to go to the martial arts arena and test your skills with the seniors?"
"… "
The whole place was silent.
The old man frowned, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his elite eyes. He probably felt that the new recruits who were forcibly summoned this year were not qualified.
He was about to instruct the person leading the way to take the people to the dormitory to rest first.
Then a steady male voice was heard from the crowd: "I'm willing to give it a try."
Adam immediately looked at Bori beside him, a trace of annoyance flashed across his face, but when the old man in green looked over, that trace of annoyance turned into fear.
"Oh?" The old man looked at the young man who raised his head, narrowed his eyes, and said half threateningly and half coldly: "There is a rule in the martial arts arena on the island. Once you go on the field, life and death are irrelevant. They will not take special care of you just because you are a newcomer. There will only be opponents there, no affection! Do you want to go too?"
Bo Rui still said the same thing: "I'm willing to give it a try."
The old man finally looked him in the eye, nodded, and said, "Not bad."
The guide who brought them here immediately smiled and said, "He is the team leader of Baishi Island. I also think he is good, so I recommended him."
"Well. You have good taste." The old man praised him indifferently.
This sentence made the guide overjoyed, and he quickly said: "You are so smart that you can spot him in the crowd at first sight."
"Let him be the team leader of this group of new recruits and obey my orders." The Ten Elders did not take his clumsy flattery to heart and made arrangements concisely.
"Okay." The guide turned and called Bo Rui: "Bo Rui, why don't you thank the Ten Elders?"
Although Bo Rui didn't like this kind of socializing, he took a step forward and was about to say "Thank you, Ten Elders" when a figure interrupted what they were doing.
The man passed them and walked quickly to the old man. He ignored the group of people and said to the old man, "Tenth Elder, something happened."
Before the old man asked him, he explained everything in a flash: "Cero somehow offended Don, causing him to throw his whole family to Singapore and Thailand, and threatened that if they didn't leave Singapore and Thailand within five hours, he would stay there."
"Also, there is one more thing I want to report to you."
"explain."
"Don has a girlfriend. His girlfriend is... Qiao Nian."
Bori, who was standing not far away, was stunned when he heard the familiar name. He never expected to hear the name of David's sister when he came to the island.
He wasn't sure if it was the same person.
But soon he heard the man say, "He was the one who broke into Baishi Island alone, stole our tungsten and made you unhappy."
"She is also related to the Ji family of the Independent Continent. She is the granddaughter of Ji Wuxuan and Nie Qingru. We have missed her before."
"I know she is Ji Wushun's granddaughter." The old man's tone sounded calm at first, as if he was very peaceful: "Qiao Nian, huh!" (End of this chapter)
