Strongest Wastrel

For a moment, Ning Zhenbang's face was ashen, but he still looked down on me and said: "Then I'll wait for your good news. If you lose badly, don't say that I didn't advise you.    

    

"Then let's just wait and see." I turned around, did not enter Second Master's room, completely lost all interest in staying, and directly walked away, thinking to myself, "Since Ning Zhenbang looks down on me, then I will take first place for you to see, what you can do, I, Lee Shaobai, can't possibly not do, don't look down on me!"    

    

Walking out of the courtyard door, I returned to Ning Mansion's large villa. It was already near dusk, so I simply ate a little dinner, then turned on the computer and started a video chat with Metal River's boss, Shao Wentian, and my assistant, Ren Changfeng.    

    

When they saw each other, Shao Wentian and Ren Changfeng immediately cupped their fists and greeted at the same time, "Hello, Young Lord."    

    

I nodded my head slightly and cut straight to the point. "The two of you are equally good. This time … There's one thing I want to tell you all, and that is tomorrow, I want to represent Ning Mansion and participate in the Four Great Families' assembly. "    

    

Shao Wentian and Ren Changfeng were stunned for a moment, and then suddenly came to a realization. As they looked at each other and laughed, Ren Changfeng turned his face and smiled, "Wentian, look? My guess was right. Liu steel will definitely represent Ning Mansion in this year's Four Great Families Assembly. "    

    

After saying that, Ren Changfeng's eyes flashed with a sharp light.    

    

Shao Wentian immediately gave a thumbs up, and replied: "Changfeng, you predicted it right. None of us are sure, but it was you who insisted that Young Lord would participate. Worthy of being my Metal River's think tank."    

    

I raised my eyebrows and lit a cigarette in front of the computer. I clicked my tongue and said, "Actually, there are a lot of things I don't know about the Four Great Guilds, so I came here to ask, for example, what's the use of the rankings of the younger generation?"    

    

At this time, Ren Changfeng threw me a kind smile, as if he was looking at his most proud junior, and said: "Young Lord, on the surface, the four great clans' gathering is to show that they are comparing and dividing their strength, but in truth, this competition between the younger generation also has a deeper meaning."    

    

When Ren Changfeng said till here, he swallowed his saliva, and smiled as he glanced at Shao Wentian. Shao Wentian smiled leisurely, as if he agreed with Ren Changfeng's words, and continued: "That's right, otherwise, how would Three Great Families send people over? The competition of the younger generation, in simpler words, was to recruit talented people for Three Great Families. It was also a method that the Four Major Clans used to tie the knot with Three Great Families! The deeper one's relationship was, the more stable one's position would be! Honestly speaking, the Three Great Families and the four great families are inextricably linked. "    

    

I took a deep breath and was suddenly shocked. So the Four Great Clans' Gathering was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, but it actually had a deep meaning behind it.    

    

Thus, I flicked away the ash on my cigarette and asked, "For example, what will happen if I win the championship of the Four Great Clans?"    

    

"Reporting to Young Lord, in all these years, the Four Great Families have already set down an unwritten rule, but all the participants who advance to the top three can obtain rewards from Three Great Families. Each year is different, and they can even obtain the chance to enter one of the Three Great Families s!" Shao Wentian answered in a straightforward manner.    

    

But when I think about Ning Zhenbang, that guy got first place in the martial competition two years ago, doesn't that mean he can enter one of the Three Great Families s? Why would he stay in the Ning Mansion? This made me ponder.    

    

So I asked again: "Ning Mansion, there is a person named Ning Zhenbang, who was the first in the martial arts competition last year, so why did he stay in Ning Mansion?"    

    

With that said, Ren Changfeng frowned and said: "Ning Zhenbang? "He is the one with the lowest profile among the Four Young Masters. I know he is a peerless genius in martial arts. He has the power to crush everyone here and has the potential to be the champion. He is truly a genius in martial arts."    

    

"At that time, the Fang family directly wanted Ning Zhenbang to become Heavenly Ranking Expert, and even sent word out that with the help of the Fang family, Ning Zhenbang could definitely become a middle stage Heavenly Ranking expert within ten years of the Fang family." At that time, the Fang family directly wanted Ning Zhenbang to become a person, and decided to nurture Heavenly Ranking Expert, and also spread word that with the help of the Fang family, Ning Zhenbang could definitely become a middle stage Heavenly Ranking expert within ten years of the Fang family.    

    

"This is simply an overlord treaty. Even if we become Heavenly Ranking Expert, without freedom and are unable to repay the family, what's the use? "Thankfully, Ning Zhenbang was not an ignorant fool, and in the end, he had tactfully rejected the opportunity to enter the Fang family."    

    

"As for Li Family, because the Fang family is flourishing and the Li Family is not personally managed by Old Master Lee, they are naturally lacking in momentum. They did not step out to ask for the Fang family's people when they were rejected."    

    

"As for Ye Family, with its style of always remaining neutral, it has also chosen to take a step back."    

    

These few words revealed the reason why Ning Zhenbang stayed behind to guard Ning Mansion, and it also pointed to Ning Zhenbang's strength.    

    

"So that's how it is." I squinted my eyes, thinking that even if I had the chance to enter Three Great Families, it wouldn't be easy, there must be all sorts of restrictions. As a Three Great Families, I definitely wouldn't let my efforts go to waste, I would use every method at my disposal to tie a talent up.    

    

After thinking for a moment, I unreservedly said, "I have already decided to forget about the martial competition. However, if it was any other matter, I will definitely take first place."    

    

Shao Wentian was stunned.    

    

On the other hand, Ren Changfeng was the calmer. As if he had already expected this, he smiled: "I'm sure Young Lord is planning to pass the Four Great Families' Assembly and enter the Li Family, right?"    

    

"First place, enter Li Family, get close to Old Master Lee, and seize power! Young Lord was so scheming! My Metal River is saved! " Shao Wentian came to his senses and abruptly widened his eyes with an unprecedented sense of urgency.    

    

But very quickly, Shao Wentian revealed a troubled look, and sighed, "However, if we want to take first place, it will not be an easy task. With the condition to enter Three Great Families in front of us, the Four Great Clans will have countless people wanting to push their way through to the top three, I am afraid that it will be very difficult."    

    

Ren Changfeng nodded his head in approval as his expression turned serious, "Wentian is right. This competition might seem simple, but it is actually very difficult, especially up until now. No one knows what the real competition's topic is.    

    

When I heard the words of the two elders, I couldn't help but feel awkward. I immediately coughed dryly and said, "As for me … You all have guessed wrongly. If I were to take first place, I will definitely not go to the Li Family. "    

    

Shao Wentian and Ren Changfeng asked at the same time.    

    

"Young Lord, this is a great opportunity to enter the Li Family, why don't you go?"    

    

"If you don't enter the Li Family, then Young Lord, you plan to … "Where to?"
