Meet the Gentleman

Chapter 412 It’s better to lack than to waste
During the few nights when the devil night came.

Feng Qingyan has been walking in the darkness, trying to figure out what kind of monster is hiding in the darkness.

Unfortunately, several days passed and he still didn't figure it out.

These monsters were extremely strange, seemingly even stranger than “weird”. Even though he had killed some of them, he still hadn’t seen their true forms.

What on earth is this thing that is hidden so deeply?

Feng Qingyan frowned tightly.

At this time, the devilish night came again, and he was still walking in the strange darkness, but not many monsters attacked him.

It seemed as if they were aware of his presence and avoided him from a distance.

His current identity is that of the City God of Qingshan, one of the most powerful beings in the world. Ordinary monsters would naturally be afraid of him.

It's normal not to attack him.

After the Demonic Night.

Feng Qingyan returned to the City God's Mansion.

At this time, Tuyang came to the City God's Mansion and explained in detail the training of the land god in the City God Hall over the past few days. Finally, he said: "Although the assessment is more difficult, there is still a chance. It depends on their luck."

Although the land god is only a ninth-rank yin god, he directly governs a village and has a great influence on the people.

If you are not careful, the whole village will be endangered.

Therefore, the land god must not only have outstanding abilities, but also have good character.

"I hope there will be twenty left."

Feng Qingyan smiled and said.

"Your Majesty, do you mean to limit the number of places to twenty?"

Tuyang asked after a moment of hesitation.

"If the test results are all good, all fifty can be retained." Feng Qingyan hesitated for a moment and said, "If the test results are not good, no one will be retained."

"No one left?"

At this time, Tuyang was really stunned and seemed very surprised. After all, the Lord had built more than fifty land temples in Qingshan. Could it be that the land temples had been left empty?

Isn't this inappropriate?
"It is better to have nothing than to have something less than enough."

Feng Qingyan said without any doubt.

Although he did hold many god positions, and even as many ninth-grade land gods as there were villages in Qingshan Territory, he was the only one in the world who held the position of Yin God, and even Youdu did not have this position.

The ten ghost kings of Youdu are nothing more than incomplete ghost soldiers.

How precious is the position of Yin God to the ghost?
Countless Yin gods dream of it.

You can go crazy about it.

Although he has many god thrones in his hands, it does mean that the Yin God can get them whenever he wants.

If it is easy to get, why should we cherish it?
He would rather most of the god positions rot in his hands than give them away like cabbages...

"Your Majesty, what you said makes sense."

Tu Yang nodded in approval.

in a blink.

A day passed.

Tuyang came to Qingshan Village again.

At this time, the sky had just darkened, and fifty Yin Gods were waiting under the old banyan tree. Many Yin Gods seemed very nervous. After all, in this assessment, it was very likely that they would become land gods and be recognized by heaven and earth as ninth-grade Yin Gods...

Who isn’t nervous?

However, there were also many Yin Spirits who were calm and composed, as if they had everything planned out for them.

Feng Qingyan did not show up, nor did he observe in secret. He was just a ninth-rank land god. Moreover, he trusted Tuyang. If Tuyang had any ulterior motives, he would not welcome him back to Qingshan Marquis Mansion, let alone hand over the military power to him...

Besides, he can absolutely suppress it. In fact, in Tuyang's mind, the biggest test is not the ability to discover or solve problems.

But character.

If one behaves badly, how can one ensure peace and prosperity for the people?
Moreover, he selected them and they went through special training and assessment, so their abilities would naturally not be too bad.

"Greetings to the old man."

When Tuyang appeared, the fifty Yin gods bowed down respectfully.

These fifty Yin gods are nervous, worried, panicked, calm, and expectant...

No one knew whether he could pass the test of the manor elder and become the ninth-rank land god between heaven and earth. Even Chen Qiu, who seemed to be confident, was somewhat nervous at this moment, but he was still very confident in himself.

The young Yin God standing next to him looked nervous.

"What are you nervous about?"

Chen Qiu said in a low voice, and after a moment's hesitation, he reminded: "Just answer everything truthfully, and remember not to try to deceive, and be respectful of life."

The young Yin Shen nodded repeatedly, trying to relax.

"If it doesn't work this time, we can try next time." Chen Qiu thought for a while and said, "There's no need to rush. The first test will definitely be very strict. With this experience, it will naturally be much easier next time..."

After a while, all the Yin gods calmed down.

"This palace envoy has been ordered by the Lord of the Mansion to select fifty Yin Gods from the City God Mansion for a ten-day land god training. Today is the last day of the training, so the final assessment will be conducted next. Those who pass the assessment will continue to stay and receive the second stage of training. Those who fail will return to the City God Mansion..."

Tuyangdao said solemnly, emitting a sense of majesty.

At this time, all the Yin Gods were extremely surprised. They didn't expect that there would be a second phase of training, and today was just the end of the first phase.

This is just a ninth-rank land god.

How many villages are there in Qingshan?
No Yin God has counted them, but there must be at least hundreds or thousands, right?

There are hundreds or even thousands of land temples. Isn't ten days of training enough? Besides, they are all the more outstanding Yin gods in the City God's Palace. Their abilities are naturally beyond doubt.

At this time, even Chen Qiu was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there would be a second stage in the land god training. However, it was precisely because of the second stage of training that he was not so worried.

Since there is a second phase of training, it is impossible to eliminate all the Yin Gods.

There must be a place for him, this is his confidence in himself.

"How many places will be left after this assessment depends on your luck." Tu Yang glanced at Chen Qiu and continued, "It is possible that all of them will stay, or it is possible that no one will stay."

When the Yin gods heard this, they were all shocked.

Not leaving any behind?

At this time, Chen Qiu's expression also changed slightly.

The assessment of the land god seemed to be much stricter than he had imagined, and it was possible that all of them would be eliminated. It seemed that even if he was better than the other Yin gods, it was not enough, he still had to meet the standards of the mansion elders...

Or in other words, it meets the standards of the Lord.

“So, don’t think you are better than others.”

Tuyang said seriously.

His eyes fell on Chen Qiu intentionally or unintentionally, making Chen Qiu dare not breathe. At this time, Chen Qiu did not expect that the old man saw through his thoughts at a glance, which made him horrified.

"Okay, let's get started now."

Tu Yang said, pointing to the first Yin God on the left, "Have you found any problems with Qingshan Village?"

What's the problem?
The Yin God was stunned for a moment, then immediately began to think, and said, "Qingshan Village is currently suffering from a terrifying darkness and overcrowding..."

“How can we solve this problem?”

Tuyang asked.
