"How can it be so simple?"

"What, are you doubting my strength? Or are you scared?" The square-faced warrior frowned and said coldly.

"Hmph! I think you are overconfident! Although the Palace Master arranged for us to start here, you still have to use your brain to do it!" The sharp-faced warrior opposite narrowed his eyes and sneered.

"You..." The square-faced warrior's face darkened and he was about to get angry.

"Okay! You two stop talking and don't have this unnecessary argument!" Another round-faced warrior with cold eyes scolded the two of them and stopped their argument.

This person seemed to have a slightly higher status than the other two. As soon as Fang opened his mouth, the other two stopped talking. Although they were quite unwilling, they still tolerated it.

"Although our strength is not weak, there are so many forces in this martial arts conference, and the Cangyun Sect has its leader personally leading the team, so it is not something we can do if we just want to!"

"Then what should we do? Should we just wait and see?" The square-faced warrior was a little annoyed.

"Of course not! You have to know that since Jiang Tian has come to Cangjing, he can't stay in the VIP Court all the time. He will come out sooner or later. We just need to wait quietly and act decisively when the time comes, and everything will fall into place!

"

"That's right! This is the best way. Blind impulse will only ruin things!" The sharp-faced warrior glanced coldly at the square-faced warrior opposite, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

…

Late at night, Wantong Trading Company.

After closing time, the store clerks had left.

In a secret underground room of the trading house that is unknown to the public, several shopkeepers are writing and counting with two sets of account books.

On the ground next to them were several large thick wooden boxes inlaid with iron sheets. The boxes were opened one after another, revealing that they were full of spiritual stone treasures.

"Okay! The accounts have been checked!" A man who looked like a shopkeeper put down the pen in his hand, exhaled slowly, and showed a relaxed expression.

"Haha! Hard work pays off, and all our efforts are finally starting to pay off!"

"Humph! Business during the martial arts tournament is more than ten times hotter than usual. If we don't take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune, when will we?"

"The Chamber of Commerce won't notice anything, right?"

"Did they notice? Well, our prices are fine and our accounts are consistent, how could they notice?"

"As long as this private account is not leaked, they will not be able to find out the truth no matter what!" A man in plain clothes who looked like a clerk said with a sneer.

This person looked unremarkable, and his status should be far different from that of the shopkeepers. However, when he was talking, the people around him didn't show any signs of neglect, and even listened seriously, which really seemed a bit strange.

After the man said this, he picked up the set of private accounts and put them into a plain-looking storage jade pendant with a shake of his hand.

This storage magic weapon was specially prepared by him. Unless people knew about it in advance, no one would pay special attention to it. Even if they saw it, they would just think it was an ordinary piece of jewelry.

Of course, this alone is definitely not enough. He does not carry this jade pendant with him at all times, but puts it in a foolproof place.

Even these people present did not know the specific location where it was stored.

And with his unremarkable appearance, who would care about this little person with a "low" status?

"Everyone, please be at ease! This matter is planned so carefully, even if they are invited to investigate, they will never find any clues!" The ordinary-looking young man said with a sneer and nodded.

"Hmph! You are so brave. You dare to commit fraud in front of this supervisor. Don't you all want to get involved?" A burly man with a beard suddenly slammed the table and said angrily.

Hearing his angry rebuke, everyone showed no signs of disbelief, and even smiled wildly.

"Hahahaha! Are you making a joke about a hammer at this time? Elder Yan, please sit down!"

"Hahahaha! Elder Yan, please forgive me. I just want to make enough money this time. I really have no other ideas!"

"Elder Yan, this box of spiritual stone treasures is enough to cover your salary for several years. If you think it's too much, I won't be polite!" An elder next to him pointed at a large box filled with spiritual stone treasures.

He held hands in the distance, with an evil smile on his face.

"Elder Yan, I advise you to look at the situation clearly and don't waste your own life!" A long-faced old man shouted coldly, with a cold light shining between his brows.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Elder Yan's face could no longer be tense, and he suddenly laughed wildly!

Several colleagues also laughed wildly, each of them looking more obscene than the last.

"Hahahaha! Yan can't pretend anymore...I can't pretend anymore, hahahaha!" Elder Yan covered his stomach and laughed so hard that he was out of breath.

"Hahahaha! Elder Yan's dedication to his duties is truly admirable!" Everyone burst into laughter, and the atmosphere was extremely wild.

"Damn it! Yan has worked hard for the Chamber of Commerce for so many years, and in the end he only gets such a small salary. He is really unwilling! Since the Chamber of Commerce is so ruthless, no wonder Yan is quick-thinking!"

Elder Yan laughed wildly for a moment, then suddenly gritted his teeth and snorted with a sullen face, looking like a maniac with extreme resentment.

If an uninformed person saw it, he would think that the Chamber of Commerce has a sworn hatred against him!

The laughter gradually dissipated, and the frenzied atmosphere in the secret room also eased.

After a while, everyone put away a large wooden box decorated with spiritual stones and treasures and quickly left the secret room.

…

Early the next morning, melodious and resonant bells rang throughout the sky above Cangjing!

The sect leaders, elders and disciples of all forces left their residences one after another, and a large number of people rushed towards the largest square in Cangjing, Canglan Square.

As all forces gathered in the square, the Canglan Nation Martial Arts Conference officially kicked off!

Several days in advance, huge arenas and spectator seats have been set up in the square.

There are dozens of these arenas, located in the center of Canglan Square.

In the prominent position opposite the ring is the exclusive viewing seat for the royal family. To the left of the royal viewing seat are the seats for military representatives of the Canglan Kingdom, and to the right of the royal viewing seat are the three major sects.

The third family of Cangjing, as well as representatives of certain forces with extremely high status in Cangjing.

These people either have extremely high status or are extremely powerful, and can be regarded as representatives of the top forces in Cangjing.

Not long after the bell rang, all the forces from all sides were present.

However, the seats for representatives of the royal family are still vacant. Obviously, as the royal family that controls the entire Canglan Kingdom, their status is there. Naturally, they have to make the finale to show the majestic and domineering style of the royal family.
Chapter completed!
