On your wedding night, stay with your godbrother; the Empress is practically throwing herself at you

"Fuyao, is your master still in Nancheng?"

"You see, our college has been looking to hire some high-level honorary presidents. I wonder if your professor would be interested..."

"Even just coming here to lend your name, or occasionally giving a lecture would be fine!"

"The compensation is definitely negotiable!"

Principal Wang immediately beamed with joy.

If they could really get that person to be their honorary principal, their Nancheng Martial Arts Academy would be incredibly awesome.

It can take off right from the spot.

After listening, Liu Fuyao gave a bitter smile.

Contact the teacher to become the honorary principal?

Are you kidding me?

Let alone getting a teacher to be the honorary principal, Liu Fuyao couldn't even contact the teacher.

Even after the battle with the Demon Slayer Division just two days ago.

The teacher has never shown up again.

So Liu Fuyao could only say helplessly.

"Principal, I'm so sorry."

"My master is used to a life of leisure and doesn't like to be constrained."

"and……"

"And I can't contact him now either."

"He's like a dragon, always appearing and disappearing without a trace. I can never find him, he's the one who always looks for me."

Upon hearing this, the light in the principal's eyes dimmed slightly, but he wasn't too disappointed.

After all, they are experts of that level.

It would be strange if they could be summoned so easily.

"I understand, I understand."

The principal chuckled and changed the subject.

"Actually, the main reason I called you here today is for something else."

"Fuyao, you should already know about the 'Hundred Cities Tournament,' right?"

Liu Fuyao was slightly taken aback, then nodded.

Of course she knew.

It could even be said that the reason she impulsively went on stage to challenge Wang Jiuxiao that day was largely because she wanted to compete for a spot in the competition.

This is the highest-level competition held by the Federation to select the top talents of the younger generation.

Once you can stand out in the competition.

Not only can they obtain a vast amount of cultivation resources, but they may even have the opportunity to enter the Star Tower, the core martial arts holy land of the Federation, for further study.

"Good to know."

The principal nodded with a smile.

"In that case, shall I explain the rules of the Hundred Cities Championship to you?"

"The Hundred Cities Competition is held once every ten years."

"It is a special event held by the Federation to select the most outstanding martial arts geniuses."

"It is divided into three stages: preliminary selection, provincial competition, and national competition."

"Although our Nancheng is just a small city, we have been allocated a few recommendation slots."

"However, our Nancheng is ultimately just a small place. In the previous Hundred Cities Championships, Nancheng was always at the bottom. Therefore, after the Martial Arts Association suggested that Nancheng simply give up in the later rounds."

At this point, the principal paused, his gaze fixed intently on Liu Fuyao.

"However, given your outstanding performance in the gymnasium, and... cough cough, because of your master."

"The Jiangnan Provincial Martial Arts Association sent a letter last night."

"You've been specifically requested to advance directly."

"And I'll send you to the provincial capital as soon as possible to receive special training from the headquarters and prepare for the upcoming provincial competition."

"Go directly to the provincial capital?"

Liu Fuyao was stunned.

She originally thought...

Even if they participate in the competition, at least the preliminary selection stage will still be held in the South City.

Unexpectedly, the headquarters gave the green light right away.

They also want to transfer me to the provincial capital for special training.

"That's a good thing!"

The homeroom teacher, Mr. Zhang, said excitedly from the side.

"Fuyao, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"The resources in the provincial capital are far superior to those in our southern city."

"If you go over there, your strength will definitely improve by leaps and bounds!"

The principal nodded in agreement.

"That's right."

"The headquarters said they will provide you with the best training environment, and there may even be a Martial King-level expert personally guiding you."

"Fuyao, you're a promising talent."

"I know your master is definitely stronger than King Wu, but you also said that you can't usually contact your master."

"If you go to the provincial capital, with King Wu providing individual guidance and a wealth of resources, it won't be long before you become a true dragon."

however.

Faced with the eager gazes of her two teachers, Liu Fuyao remained silent.

I couldn't help but lower my head.

His expression was hesitant.

Go to the provincial capital...

That means leaving Nancheng.

Leaving here means leaving my brother-in-law...

No, he's the older brother now.

Although that family was just neighbors living upstairs and downstairs.

Although my brother is now divorced and single.

But if I leave, it will take anywhere from a few months to half a year or a year.

What if another woman appears in my brother's life during this time?

What if he forgets about himself?

The thought of never seeing that familiar figure again filled Liu Fuyao with a sense of emptiness.

That feeling was even more painful than having to give up the competition.

"that……"

Liu Fuyao bit her lip, her voice slightly soft.

"Principal, teacher, may I...?"

"Not going to the provincial capital?"

"Can't I just train in the south of the city?"

"I'm confident I'll pass the preliminary rounds; I don't need any special privileges."

"What?!"

The principal and Old Zhang both stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with shock.

"Not going?"

Old Zhang was so anxious he almost jumped up.

"Fuyao, are you stupid?!"

"This is a special training session organized by the headquarters; countless people would kill for such an opportunity!"

"And this is a direct order from above."

The principal frowned, his tone serious.

"Fuyao, I know you might be reluctant to leave home, or it might be because your master is here."

"But you must understand that the path of martial arts is like rowing against the current."

"Now that you have this talent and this opportunity, you can't be willful."

"Moreover, the Hundred Cities Competition is of great importance."

"It's not just about your personal honor or disgrace, it also represents the face of our Nancheng."

Seeing that Liu Fuyao was still hesitating.

The principal sighed, his tone softening.

"Alright, there's no rush for you to give me an answer right away."

"Go back and discuss it with your family first."

"But we need to be quick. If we're going to leave, it should only be a day or two."

I walked out of the office building.

The sunlight outside was a bit too bright.

Liu Fuyao raised her hand to cover her forehead, her mind in turmoil.

On one hand, it's about becoming stronger so that I can protect my brother in the future.

On one hand, there is companionship that allows you to spend every day together and silently protect each other.

How should I choose?

……

at the same time.

The distant Taihe Province.

Martial Arts Association.

The huge conference room.

The air was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.

On either side of a long conference table sat the high-ranking martial arts officials of Taihe Province, each with a face so gloomy it could drip water.

"Bang!"

A loud bang.

An elderly man in a Tang suit, sitting at the head of the table, slammed his hand hard on the table.

moment.

The solid wood conference table has cracks.

This old man was none other than He Taiqing, the president of the Taihe Province Martial Arts Association.

A genuine Martial Emperor.

But at this moment, his hair and beard stood on end, and his eyes were bloodshot, like a raging lion.

"This is outrageous!"

"The people of Jiangnan Province are simply going too far!"
