Hearing what Hong Dali had asked, Jiang Qianxue and Yin Tianzong looked at each other and sighed slightly at the same time.
Yin Tianzong asked in a low voice, “I think you better ask Qianxue. She has greater pressure from her side. Our Yin Family is not so tough.”
Pressure? What kind of pressure could Galaxy Aristocrats have at the Honorary Aristocrats’ Advancement assessment?
“Let me explain.” Jiang Qianxue looked at the group of people behind Hong Dali. She saw these people frequent enough, she did not intend to hide it from them. “Simply speaking, this was caused by the Galaxy Super Mecha Wars from earlier.”
Galaxy Super Mecha Wars? What did that have anything to do with the Advancement assessment? Why was the matter not settled yet?
“Li Tianxing lost the match, you were the final champion, right?” Jiang Qianxue said.
“Yes. That’s right. I’ve accepted the things and spent the money. What about it?” Hong Dali stared with his eyes wide open. “Do they want the money back? Damn, it’s an act of death revenge to break one’s source of money. I’ll teach him a lesson!”
Damn, the money is already spent. Is he trying to take it back? I won’t be Hong Dali if I don’t teach you a lesson!
“Why would he be interested in those things,” Jiang Qianxue said anxiously. “The key of the matter is, in this competition, the High Noble of the Dimu Star Sector, Lord Malone, had promised to bring him to the headquarters of Dimu Star Sector for training if he won!”
“And because he lost, he didn’t get to go?” Hong Dali asked, horrified. “Oh my God, has he gone mad, then?”
“He’s not mad, but he’s almost there.” Jiang Qianxue took a deep breath. “His father, Li Hanhong, is a member of the Galaxy Aristocrat Elders and always wanted to control the Galaxy Aristocrat Elders. He wants to take advantage of this Advancement assessment to teach my grandfather a lesson.”
This was too much information.
“Wait a minute,” Hong Dali felt incapable of processing this information right now. “Li Tianxing’s father, Li Hanhong, wants to control the Galaxy Aristocrat Elders, right?”
“En, right.” Jiang Qianxue nodded.
“And your grandfather will definitely not be on the same side as him, right?” Hong Dali asked again.
“Yes, definitely not.” Jiang Qianxue continued nodding.
Hong Dali raged. “They can do whatever they want, how does that affect the advancement assessment. What does it have to do with me? I’m a prodigal, a prodigal! Not a politician!”
It was no wonder Hong Dali was mad.
You Galaxy Aristocrats should settle your own lousy problem within yourselves internally. What has it got to do with me? I’m a prodigal, not a politician! I don’t understand this kind of conspiracy!
“Oh, let’s put it this way.” Jiang Qianxue let out a long sigh. “For example, you taught hundreds of students and intend to give them a test. Suddenly, another teacher comes along with a huge group of students and requests to take the test together with your students. Later, the students he brought scored much better than the students you taught. How would you feel?”
Hearing that, Hong Dali instantly understood.
This was like other people coming to your house to show off.
Jiang Qianxue’s example was easy to understand. They were all students brought out by teachers, and they were of about the same caliber. But the results showed that others’ students were better than yours. How would one hold their head up high?
That was to make one distrusted and shamed in front of everybody. However, since it was within reasonability, there was not much one could say when they suffered such grievances!
“That means,” Hong Dali touched his chin. “this advancement assessment, Li Tianxing, or rather, his father, Li Hanhong, will be bringing several powerful people to go against your Honorary Aristocrats to see who is better?”
“Something like that.” Yin Tianzong appeared pale. “And they requested for Grandfather Jiang Dongliu to observe the Advancement assessment.”
Okay, it was understood now. This was an open declaration to show severity. Do you accept the challenge?
From Jiang Qianxue and Yin Tianzong’s conversation, Hong Dali understood a lot of things.
If he accepted the challenge, it was impossible to win. Others had came prepared. The people they had selected were sure to be geniuses. If he did not accept the challenge, he would be subjected to others’ ridicule. Li Hanhong wanted to rule in the Galaxy Aristocrat Elders, he must have contacted a few of the other Elders. Otherwise, there was no way he would lay his hand on Jiang Qianxue’s grandfather, Jiang Dongliu.
Which meant, a few people in the Galaxy Aristocrat Elders were sure to support Li Hanhong.
To be able to achieve that, Li Hanhong must have a more powerful backing.
“Qianxue ah,” Hong Dali’s smile was sly as a fox. “There must be someone above Li Hanhong, right?”
“En, that’s right.” Jiang Qianxue nodded. “Li Hanhong’s father, which is Li Tianxing’s grandfather, Li Xuancheng, is one of the Five Kings, just like my grandfather. He’s a little… more powerful compared to my grandfather.”
Hearing that, Hong Dali understood immediately.
Basically, Li Hanhong probably took the opportunity to ask the most important person in the Li Family, Li Xuancheng, to contact other members of the Galaxy Aristocrat Elders since Li Tianxing had lost the competition and his chance to go to the Dimu Start Sector headquarters for further training. The story was probably your grandson suffered a setback, you need to help him lay the path to get resources. At the same time, you could control the Galaxy Aristocrat Elders and do something about Hong Dali, etc.
Li Tianxing suffered such a huge setback, his grandfather, as one of the Five Kings, could not possibly be a coward and do nothing, right?
He had to stand up for his grandson, right? Otherwise, what would the chickens say? What would the ducks say? What would the geese say? In the future, how would he hold his head up high within the Galaxy Aristocrats?
To do anything to Hong Dali directly, it would be too much as an Elder. Hence, Li Xuancheng went the indirect way by controlling the Galaxy Aristocrat Elders. By then, Li Tianxing could do whatever he wanted to.
“Alright, it seems this is quite troublesome.” Hong Dali shrugged helplessly. “Tell me, what do I need to do? I’m just an Orange-level Double Honorary Aristocrat, you think too highly of me. Their Black-level Honorary Aristocrats came in groups…”
“Because you’re smart.” Jiang Qianxue couldn’t stop thinking about it. She didn’t know how to ask Hong Dali for help. But this involved her most respected grandfather. She could not be careless about it. So, she made a big promise. “Anyway, just take care of this matter for me. When the time comes, I’ll give you a kiss. Will that do?!”
Damn, don’t you know my fiancée is right beside me? Don’t you know my Sister Nianwei is right beside me?
Is it okay to say this? At least wait till nobody is around…
Indeed, Hong Dali instantly felt a warm touch on his waist and a pinch with a twist on his body…
No matter what, he had to help Jiang Qianxue. After all, Grandfather Jiang Dongliu was good to them and they got along quite well. He was a string-puller who became an Honorary Aristocrat. It would not be nice if he didn’t go.
Toward this matter, although Tang Muxin had shown her unhappiness physically, she was not one who wished to make others uncomfortable to make herself feel one. In any case, if it could make Li Tianxing uncomfortable, she was more than willing to be involved.
Moreover, Hong Dali had no intention of winning the Galaxy Super Mecha Wars in the beginning. This was somewhat caused by him. It seemed he had to help no matter what.
To know one’s own strengths and the enemies’ was the sure way to victory. He should at least know what big shots were involved before he went, right?
If he just dashed there without thinking, he might die without knowing what happened.
“Qianxue ah,” Hong Dali was in no hurry to leave. He quickly tried to find out more. “how many of such important people will be there? At least tell me about them, en, those that are more dangerous.”
Jiang Qianxue was fully prepared for this. She quickly gave Hong Dali an introduction. “This time, Li Xuancheng personally led a team. There is Li Tianxing, Li Hanhong, four Black-level Honorary Aristocrats, eight Purple-level, sixteen Blue-level, thirty-two Green-level, and several other levels of cannon fodder.”
En, that sounds like a family outing. Amazing.
Wait a minute, other cannon fodder?
“What’s up with the cannon fodder?” Hong Dali stared with his eyes wide open. “We’re not going to fight a war, he’s actually bringing cannon fodder?”
“Those are what Li Tianxing brought to disgust you.” Jiang Qianxue pouted, her tone disdainful. “This Li Tianxing is petty and a bad loser.”
“Let me explain.” Yin Tianzong explained to Hong Dali. “Advancement assessment, once you enter the venue, no one is allowed to attack anyone. No matter what the circumstances, no one is to disrupt the order of the venue. If anyone raises their hand, they will be disqualified from the Advancement assessment. If it gets serious, they will get stripped off their Honorary Aristocrat status. The consequences are serious.”
With Yin Tianzong’s explanation, Hong Dali immediate understood.
The purpose of these cannon fodder was to provoke him? When his Honorary Aristocrat status got stripped and he became a commoner, it would be easier for Li Tianxiang to do anything to him, right? This rascal was really scheming.
“En, I understand. Who will be going from our side?” Hong Dali did not express any opinion, they wouldn’t be fighting for real in any case. So-so. He just needed to know roughly their strength. “We should have some powerful people to look impressive, right? Is Grandpa Jiang coming?”
“Of course!” Speaking of her grandfather, Jiang Qianxue was proud. “This time, Li Xuancheng did not come with kind intentions. He’s here to go up against my grandfather, of course my grandfather has to be there.” Jiang Qianxue’s expression changed when she spoke about others. “Other than him will be people from Tianzong and my family. As for Honorary Aristocrats, six Black-level, twelve Purple-level, twenty-four Blue-level. They should be able to manage. As for the Double Honorary Aristocrats…”
Speaking up to this point, the usually indifferent Jiang Qianxue pouted and sighed. “Aye, it’s not worth mentioning…”
