Ginny Neal and Heather Sage walked over to where Braydon Neal was sitting.
Miranda Stern was a bit surprised, asking from behind, “Elder Zito, why is Lord Northern King here?”
“Last night, he came to the provincial capital to settle some small matters and didn’t leave from home. It’s very likely that Young Master will be making a trip to the capital, so Teacher Miranda, you don’t need to be nervous.”
Old Man Zito said.
Not far away, Ginny happily jumped onto Braydon and sat on her brother’s lap. Her eyes were bright and clear as she giggled happily and asked, “Big Brother, are you here to see me?”
“Of course!”
Braydon’s eyes were filled with love as he pinched her little round face.
Heather sat beside him, her fair fingers gently brushing her earlobes and hair. Her bright eyes were a little puzzled as she asked, “Why did you come to provincial capital?”
“To see how you will be eliminated!” Braydon smiled faintly.
Heather’s face darkened.
She had been under a lot of pressure these few days and was worrying about the martial arts examination.
Because Heather discovered that the people who were taking the martial arts exam were very strong.
She seemed to be at the bottom of the examinees!
However, Heather did not know that the opponents she faced two days ago were the weakest!
For two consecutive days, the weakest opponents were randomly selected by her.
Could it really be so coincidental?
Of course, not!
Behind all of this, Sammy Dudley had been pulling the strings.
Others might not understand Braydon, but how could Sammy not?
If anything happened to Heather, Braydon would be furious. If he was furious, the martial arts examination might not even carry on as per normal.
Therefore, Sammy had ordered Heather to be given the weakest opponents.
There were two people in the Hamptons provincial general examination who could not be hurt in any way. One of them was Ginny.
The other was Heather.
Sammy had been in the Neal family manor for so long, so he naturally knew how important these two girls were to his commander.
There were some things that Braydon did not need to instruct them to do. Sammy and the others knew what to do.
Braydon looked at Heather, who seemed to have a lot on her mind. He could not help but laugh. He reached out and stroked her cheek, his thumb gently rubbing her cheek.
Braydon asked gently, “What’s wrong? Feeling pressured?”
Heather rolled her eyes and refused to admit it.
It was definitely a lie that she was not stressed out.
In the Hamptons provincial general examination, the strength of this batch of young martial artists this year was exceptionally strong.
Among the 1000 people, more than half of them were young warriors.
There were even several warlord level martial artists!
Jeremy Norton was participating in the assessment as usual.
As a student of the black-robed Prime Minister Barrett Yearwood, if he passed the martial arts examination and entered the capital, his future would be promising.
Among all the examinees, beginner martial artists like Heather could be counted on one’s fingers.
As Braydon and Heather were chatting, a group of people slowly appeared on the high platform of the examination hall.
Sammy, the commander of the Central Plains main team!
The Hamptons commissioner, Bentley Johnson.
Quill inspector Lawson Babcock.
The capital’s special envoy Jordyn Quimby!
To the martial artists in Quill, they were all important figures.
Following their appearance, there was a loud voice that said, “Silence!” The noisy examination hall instantly quieted down.
Everyone looked at the platform in unison, their eyes filled with respect.
To the martial artists attending the martial examination, Commander Sammy and Commissioner Bentley were both important figures.
Now, all of them were present.
The capital attached great importance to the martial arts examination. The people in charge of various places naturally did not dare to be negligent.
Sammy was dressed in black, and his expression was solemn as he said softly, “Commissioner Johnson, why not you host the martial arts examination today?”
“I dare not. The martial arts examination is different from the civil examination. It’s better for Commander Dudley to preside over the examination.”
Bentley quickly said.
Sammy did not stand on ceremony. The matters of the martial arts examination were not under the jurisdiction of Commissioner Bentley.
He suddenly stood up and said in a clear voice, “It’s the annual martial arts examination again. All of you are geniuses selected from various cities. Two days ago, your talent and strength were tested. Today, we’re sparring with martial arts. The bottom line is that you must not take anyone’s life!
“Those who deliberately kill will be disqualified from the martial arts examination and handed over to the Central Plains main team for investigation!
“Those who excel in this martial arts examination will be guaranteed entry into the capital. The eight institutions, the three armies, nine departments, and twenty-four divisions will all open their doors for you!”
Sammy’s bright voice resounded throughout the entire venue.
The eyes of all the students participating in the martial examination lit up.
Many youths hoped to join the eight institutions. They would be able to change their future by doing so. And it was through this martial arts examination. Many people had been eliminated during the martial arts examination two days ago.
Even more children had dim gazes. They knew that they could only stop at the provincial capital for this year’s martial arts examination and had no chance of going to the capital.
Following that, Sammy announced that the last day of the martial arts examination in the Hamptons had begun!
All the students had to go to the high platform and pick their opponents from the wooden boxes.
Below the stage.
Braydon said softly, “Ginny, go and help your sister Heather draw an opponent.”
“Alright!”
Ginny was very obedient. She walked up to the platform.
The little girl went to the high platform.
Bentley was flipping through the list of candidates. There was a page of information behind each candidate’s name.
Ginny was only ten years old, and she looked like a porcelain doll.
She went on stage to draw her opponent.
“Little girl, your name is Ginny Neal, right?” Bentley asked in surprise.
“That’s right!”
Ginny blinked.
“Is there a problem, Commissioner Johnson?” Sammy glanced over and asked indifferently.
“No, I just feel that this girl is really young. She came to participate in the martial arts examination at such a young age. She’s really a little genius. I just wanted to see her parents and relatives, but there’s no information on that here.”
Bentley pulled out Ginny’s personal file.
Ginny’s name, age, basic strength, and the levels of light force were all clearly recorded.
Only the background column was blank.
This piqued Bentley’s curiosity.
The martial arts examination seemed lax, but they were actually extremely detailed.
The degree of strictness in the investigation of examinees was gradually increasing.
When you participate in the martial arts examination, the higher your strength and talent were, the stricter the investigation.
Regarding the authenticity of your name, age, background, and so on, there would be people who would specially go to your birthplace to investigate in detail.
However, among all the examinees, Ginny’s background was completely blank.
It was completely empty.
Was this an oversight, or was it deliberately left empty?
Bentley asked casually.
“Ginny’s background is related to a big shot, ” Sammy said indifferently. “His name cannot appear on any paper. Once it appears, it will be classified as an
S-level secret. So, Commissioner Johnson, do you have any other questions?”
Bentley’s heart jumped in fright. He realized that this porcelain doll-like delicate little girl probably had a great background!
The little girl’s background was absolutely terrifying.
Otherwise, Commander Sammy would not say such words..
