Chapter 212 – Recruitment
Second stage of martial arts realm!
The entire hall was once again filled with shock. Other than Yang Tiangang, who already knew that he had levelled up to the second level of martial arts realm, everyone had the same thought in their minds: How old is he!
At first, Yang Junshan’s cultivation was only at the first stage, but when he had just opened his dantian, he was defeated by Yang Junshan in a direct battle. Now that Yang Junshan had advanced to the second stage, his cultivation had not improved by much.
However, the reality was not only that, Yang Junshan was not only teaching Shi Jingxuan a lesson, he had basically built his prestige. The moment he used his own aura to suppress Shi Nansheng, he actually indiscriminately filled the entire hall with his aura, provoking all the other Yang Family cultivators in the hall!
Did he really think that he was invincible in this world?
Furthermore, regardless of whether it was Xu Sanniang or Li Shaoqun, these people were all clan leaders, with their dignity and reputation, and with the matter just now involving their family and lives, it was understandable for everyone to bury their heads and become mute, but it was also not something that a junior cultivator could casually humiliate.
Xu Sanniang, Li Shaoqun and even Blacksmith Zhang started to work together to resist. Shi Nansheng was just about to make his move when he suddenly realised that he had been locked onto by an Qi, in the blink of an eye, he saw An Xia nodding to him and Shi Jingxuan who was still standing in the middle of the hall foolishly was still stuck in the middle of Yang Junshan’s attack.
The tables and chairs had even started to gradually float in the air, the tea bowls that were placed on top of them began to tremble, and the tea within began to ripple one after another. The combined strength of two people at the second level of martial arts realm along with one cultivator and one cultivator at the first level, were actually unable to escape from the hands of the newly advanced Yang Junshan.
“Enough!”
A low shout suddenly came out from Yang Tiangang’s mouth, causing the originally tense atmosphere in the hall to instantly vanish like smoke. Only the tables and chairs that suddenly landed on the ground and the tea that flew out could prove what happened. Other than that, only the ashen faces of Xu Sanniang and the rest could be seen, as well as the fearful gazes directed towards Yang Junshan.

Yang Junshan looked at the people in the hall and said: “The Yang family will not cower from the responsibilities that we should bear. I do not wish for this to happen a second time, if I hear someone who does not know his place spouting nonsense in such a clumsy manner, then don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
“How dare you!”
Yang Tiangang said angrily: The majority of the people in this hall are your seniors, how can you say such arrogant words. Since you have volunteered to be one of the border guards, then this time, this Village Head will no longer punish you.
Yang Tiangang also did not make a sound, and directly went to sit at the very bottom of the hall. Since he was also a Martial Realm Cultivator, he naturally had the qualifications to participate in this kind of meeting, if it were not under the guise of a “junior”, he would have to take father’s face into consideration. With his current strength, even if he directly sat under Yang Tiangang, the entire Xishan Village would not dare say anything.
“Vice Village Head Shi, drag Jingxuan down. What is the standard of standing there?”
When Yang Tiangang saw that Shi Jingxuan was still standing in the middle of the hall with his hands behind his back, looking dull, he did not hide the disgust in his eyes at all and directly told Shi Nansheng who was seated below him.
Shi Nansheng silently pulled Shi Jingxuan to his original position, but right at this moment, Shi Jingxuan suddenly screamed, and sprinted out of the hall.
The expression on Yang Tiangang’s face did not change at all, and he said in a deep voice: “Since we already have the first candidate, then there are still two other candidates. Everyone can continue to discuss it.”
This time, the county magistrate had issued an order for the recruitment of Martial Realm Cultivator s into the borders of Mengyu County. Every village had to have at least one Martial Realm Cultivator; if the village had six Martial Realm Cultivator s or more, then two; if there were ten Martial Realm Cultivator s or more, then three.
From the time Yang Tiangang descended the mountain, the number of Martial Realm Cultivatoad already reached 11. This was considering that Wu Shuo and Jiu Li, the two people who had always lived as guest delegates in Xishan Village, were equivalent to the people in the Martial Realm Cultivator. Thus, when they reached the Xishan Village, they had to send three Martial Realm Cultivator s to report to the Frontier Defense Cultivators.
Ever since last year, the borders of the Mengyu County, Yao County and Yao County have never been at peace, both sides fought back and forth on the border, and sometimes they even sent cultivators deep into their respective territories, causing great damage to both sides’ personnel and cultivation resources.
If they were to launch it, it might turn into a large-scale battle, whether they could win or lose in the second place. The key thing was that during large-scale battles, the cultivators would always have heavy casualties, and when the time came, no one could say who would fall in the dark. It was likely that those who killed would not even know who they were, and who would be willing to do suching?
Moreover, the Xishan Village had learned from the past, when Shi Jiutong and Yang Tiangang had failed in their fight for the position of Village Head, the Dream Yoga Guards had forcefully brought him to the border to participate in the assault on the Ling Zhang County, and in the end, he had died an unknown death in battle. The Shi Family, which was initially stronger than the Xu Family, had collapsed, if not, the Shi Family would not have been reduced to such a state because of the three Martial Realm Cultivator s.
Xu Sanniang, Li Shaoqun and the rest were all silent. In fact, after Yang Tiangang had advanced to the late stage of the martial arts realm, even if they had the thoughts of opposing Yang Tiangang, they did not dare to go against him. A cultivator of the late stage of the martial arts realm would have more than enough distance between them and him, not to mention that once a cultivator advanced to the late stage of the martial arts realm, their position in the Mengyu County would have a qualitative improvement.
So much so that when Yang Junshan was the first to stand out and agree to the orders of the county magistrate to recruit border guards, a few Martial Realm Cultivator s, including Shi Nansheng, were already prepared to be called out by Yang Tiangang.
“I have been a guest in the Xishan Village for a long time, and have always felt guilty about not being able to do anything for the village. Since I have orders to recruit border guards, then count me as Wu Shuo!”
Wu Shuo stepped into the hall, the imposing Qi around him was astonishing, although the Qi around his body was a little strange, the imposing Qi he was emitting was the true cultivation of the second stage of the martial arts realm, it was true.
Although Wu Shuo usually kept a low profile and rarely appeared in front of people, but everyone present still knew this Martial Realm Cultivator, and was only aware that this person was initially a cultivator with the first level of martial arts realm, how long had it been since he had reached the second level?
The Yang family, which was already heavy in everyone’s hearts, now seemed to be even more unfathomable. It was as if aime when no one cared about them, the Yang family had already built up such a huge foundation.
Yang Tiangang turned to look at Yang Junshan with an inquiring look, only to see that Yang Junshan was also looking at Wu Shuo with a stunned face. It was obvious that he did not expect Wu Shuo to actually take the initiative to respond to the summons of the county magistrate, and laughed: “Brother Wu, you are not from my Xishan Village, I am afraid.”
“Then that’s it!” Wu Shuo said indifferently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this time, Yang Junshan also came back to his senses, and slightly nodded towards Yang Tiangang. Yang Tiangang then laughed: “It is naturally for the Wu brothers to take the initiative to go there, but the border area is in danger, if you are not careful you are in danger, I must warn the Wu brothers.”
Wu Shuo laughed: “Just relax, I did not do it.”
“How can I miss out on such a fight!”
This time, not only Yang Tiangang, but the others were also stunned. Originally, everyone was afraid of death, so they were hesitant, but they did not expect that today, there would be a series of people who would take the initiative to battle. Moreover, there would be three of them all at once.
Jiu Li skipped into the lobby, “Hehe” laughed, and said: “How can you leave me for something so fun, I’ll go too!”
This time, without waiting for Yang Tiangang to speak, Yang Junshan frowned and said: “Jiu Li, this is not a joke, there iossibility of death there. You are only at the first stage of cultivation, going there is too dangerous.”
Unexpectedly, without waiting for Jiu Li to speak, Wu Shuo said from the side: “Let her go, us Witch, uh, the cultivation methods that Jiu Li and I cultivate are a little similar, only through constant battles can we become stronger and stronger. Pure training speed is just too slow, to us, sometimes battles themselves are more important than life and death.”
Yang Junshan was startled, but it also explained why the Witch Clan was so aggressive in his previous life. At the same time, it also allowed Yang Junshan to understand why Jiu Li had always been pestering him with fighting techniques, and why Yang Junshan’s cultivation had always surpassed Jiu Li’s. Even so, she did not feel disheartened at all, and continued to lose out to him time and time again.
As for Wu Shuo, his cultivation had already reached the fourth stage of the Power Wu Realm. Now that he had recovered from the backlash, there was no need for him to do anything.
Seeing that his son no longer opposed it, Yang Tiangang followed the flow and said: “Since that’s the case, then this Village Head will also bring Miss Jiu Li into the Xishan Village.”
Yang Tiangang paused for a moment, then couldn’t help but remind them: “It’s already the new year, and after the fifth day of the first month, you all will have to head to the Mengyu County’s border to report there. The border guards are not like the villages where the crouching tigers and hidden dragons are.
The other people in the hall naturally heaved a sigh of relief, and immediately after, complicated expressions appeared on everyone’s faces. Adding Wu Shuo and Jiu Li, there were two more Martial Realm Cultivator on the Yang Family side of the Xishan Village, the Yang Family’s might in the Xishan Village was more and more unstoppable.
