章節 568: Effect of Reputation

Several guards were chatting excitedly at the city gates, discussing which of Wind Mail City’s talents were likely to be selected. Some said Yu Xiaobai of Wind Trail Training Hall and others supported Zuo Chao of Cold Ray Training Hall. Everyone stuck to their own arguments, bragging about how they had seen these amazing geniuses with their own eyes.

Someone noticed that one guard had suddenly stopped moving and asked, "Hey! What happened, Old Xu?"

Old Xu seemed not to hear anything and stood motionless.

Some people panicked. "Hey! Hey! Old Xu, don’t scare us!"

One of them hurriedly patted old Xu’s face. It quivered and then his whole body shivered. 

The crowd heaved a sigh of relief and someone shouted, "What’s the matter old Xu? How many people do you want to scare to death!"

Old Xu’s face flushed and he stammered, "I, I remember!"

Everybody was curious and yet disapproving. "What do you recall? What has surprised you?"
