Chapter 199 If you've got the guts, kill a few more. I'll take the blame for as many as yo
That evening, Jia Pengfei, the general of the Ma Yi Wei (a type of imperial guard) in the prefectural city, summoned the ten contestants to the Ma Yi Wei's training ground.
Thousands of soldiers in hempen uniforms stood by and watched the spectacle.
The generals of the Ma Yi Guard who had paid for their spots looked down at their toes, not daring to speak.
Only Lin Feng and the two generals from the prefectural city who had passed the competition dared to look Jia Pengfei in the eye.
With his hands behind his back, Jia Pengfei stared at the ten seeded players in front of him and said, "Have you all made up your minds?"
The two generals of the Ma Yi Guard from the prefectural city said in a firm and powerful voice, "Reporting to the general, we have made up our minds."
Jia Pengfei glanced at the silent Lin Feng, then at the seven Ma Yiwei generals who didn't even dare to raise their heads, and sighed inwardly.
It seems this martial arts competition is a bit dangerous; the generals from the Ma Yi Guards coming up below aren't very reliable.
Jia Pengfei asked loudly, "Tell me, what kind of support do you need to achieve a ranking?"
A general from the prefectural city's Ma Yi Guard stepped forward and said, "Reporting to the general, I don't need anything. I only need the general's trust."
The general's trust gives me boundless strength, and with that strength, I am certain to win the game.
Jia Pengfei stepped forward, patted the man on the shoulder, and straightened his collar. "Very good, this is a true warrior of the Hemp-Clad Guard."
"You don't want it, but I can't refuse. I'll give you one hundred Jiazi Enhancement Pills and one Blood Burning Pill."
The man quickly clasped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you for your generous reward, General."
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng almost blurted out "Holy crap!"
The Ma Yiwei of the prefectural city used to be fond of flattery, and they were so embarrassed by their own flattery that Jia Pengfei accepted it all without question. What's more, everyone around them looked on with envy.
General Jia Pengfei of the Prefectural City's Ma Yi Guard then looked at another person, "You tell me, what kind of support do you need from me?"
The man stepped forward and said, “I need the general’s encouragement and guidance. Your wisdom is like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating my way forward.”
A smile involuntarily appeared on Jia Pengfei's face. "Very good, young man, you have a bright future."
I'm giving you 150 Jiazi Enhancement Pills and one Bloodstained Pill. I wish you victory in the martial arts tournament the day after tomorrow.
The man also clasped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you for your reward, General."
The general of the Ma Yi Guard, who had just received one hundred Jiazi Zenggong Pills, glanced at his colleague beside him.
When did this kid become so good at flattery? It seems I still need to learn more from the storytellers in the restaurant and improve myself.
Jia Pengfei glanced at everyone and finally looked at Lin Feng.
Because among the generals of the Ma Yi Guards who came up from below, only Lin Feng raised his head. "Boy, what's your name?"
Lin Feng clasped his hands and said, "This humble general Lin Feng greets the general."
A look of surprise flashed across Jia Pengfei's eyes. "You're Lin Feng? Lin Feng from Qinghe County."
"Exactly."
Lin Feng was a prominent figure in the Ma Yi Wei (a type of secret police unit), and it was Lin Feng who proposed the strategy of sending the Ma Yi Wei to the countryside.
Upon hearing that the person in front of them was Lin Feng, the guards in line immediately began to discuss among themselves.
"Is this Lin Feng?"
"Yes, I didn't see anything special about him."
"Since they were able to achieve a ranking in the prefectural city, their strength must be extraordinary."
"As expected of the King of the Hemp-Clad Guards."
"He's just a general of the Ma Yi Guard in a county town. What's so great about him?"
"Don't underestimate him. He single-handedly defeated the city lord's mansion and completely controlled a county town."
I think even the average county-level general in his hemp-coated guard is no match for him.
……
"Hmm." Jia Pengfei hummed softly, and the training ground immediately fell silent.
Jia Pengfei walked up to Lin Feng and asked, "Tell me, what kind of support would you need to get a ranking?"
Lin Feng was unwilling to flatter like those two people from before; even if he were to flatter, he would choose his people carefully.
If it were my master and senior sister taking the photos, then so be it.
Why would I take pictures of you, a mere general of the Ma Yi Guard in a prefectural city?
There is actually no hierarchy among the Ma Yi Guards. Theoretically, Lin Feng, the existing Ma Yi Guard General, is on the same level as the Ma Yi Guard General of the prefectural city.
Only the commander, deputy commander, and envoy of the Hemp-Clad Guard have the authority to mobilize Hemp-Clad Guards at all levels.
This time, the commander ordered the generals of the Ma Yi Guards in each prefecture to be in charge of the martial arts competition in their respective prefectures.
As the general of the Ma Yi Wei in the prefectural city, Jia Pengfei had the authority to manage this matter, and he also controlled the resources distributed by the Ma Yi Wei for rewards.
Lin Feng got straight to the point: "I need four hundred Jiazi Enhancement Pills, and let me spend another day in the library looking at the secret manuals."
Jia Pengfei was shocked by Lin Feng's outrageous demands.
Jia Pengfei turned his head and put his ear to Lin Feng, "Organize your thoughts and say it again, how many Jiazi Enhancement Pills do you want?"
Jia Pengfei wanted this guy who spoke without thinking to reconsider his words.
Lin Feng could tell that General Jia wanted him to ask for less, but the words had already been spoken, so how could he take them back?
Lin Feng swallowed hard and said, "I said I want four hundred Jiazi Enhancement Pills."
Jia Pengfei turned his head, frowned, and looked at Lin Feng, saying, "Do you think the Jiazi Enhancement Pill is made by rolling mud?"
You can have as many as you want.
That's a high-grade elixir.
Lin Feng argued for the pills, saying, "I heard that the general rewarded each of the brothers who won a place in the last round of the martial arts competition in the prefectural city with two hundred Jiazi Zenggong Pills."
The finals in the prefectural city are definitely more prestigious. If I get a ranking, four hundred Jiazi Enhancement Pills aren't a lot, are they?
"There are many experts in the prefecture, making it more difficult to get a ranking."
That's why I rewarded each of them with two hundred Jiazi Enhancement Pills.
When Jia Pengfei gets resources, he'll definitely favor his own people.
Lin Feng wasn't going to change his mind; he was just asking for this much, and Jia Pengfei could give it or not if he wanted.
Lin Feng clasped his hands and said, "It was the general who asked me what kind of support I needed. I told him what support I needed, and whether or not he provides it is up to the general."
Upon hearing this, Jia Pengfei raised an eyebrow. A person's reputation precedes them; someone who dares to challenge the city lord is indeed extraordinary.
Jia Pengfei felt trapped; he had resources allocated from above, and he couldn't refuse them.
Giving so much feels like a rip-off, especially since the guy's attitude is so bad, like I owe him something.
This kid can't even say a compliment; he's far inferior to my subordinates.
With so many subordinates watching, it would damage my authority if I just gave it to them, but I couldn't refuse.
After thinking for a moment, Jia Pengfei said, "I can agree to your conditions, but can you guarantee a place?"
"Of course I can get it."
What if you can't get it?
"Do as you see fit, General!"
"Alright, if you don't get a ranking, you'll have to return all four hundred Jiazi Enhancement Pills."
And you'll have to come here to receive fifty strokes of the cane.
Think it over carefully. If you agree to this, I'll give you the resources.
Without a second thought, Lin Feng replied, "I agree!"
After finishing his sentence, Lin Feng thought of his rampage in the county town, so he added, "In arena combat, swords and spears have no eyes; if I go all out, I might kill someone..."
Before Lin Feng could finish speaking, Jia Pengfei said, "If you're so capable, then kill a few more. I'll take the blame for as many as you kill."
I, Jia Pengfei, mean what I say, and I stand by my word.
Jia Pengfei never dreamed that a casual promise he made would make him regret it so much that he would vomit blood.
Jia Pengfei went to the storeroom and personally gave Lin Feng four hundred Jiazi Enhancement Pills, and then sent someone to lead Lin Feng to the library.
Lin Feng headed to the library with a big smile. Today had been incredibly lucky; he had made a windfall.
With so many resources at my disposal, I should be able to break through to the Golden Bone Realm by now.
