Xiao Pei, Xuzhou.
The Moon Tower in the city is 60 feet high. It was built by Mi Zhu, a rich man in the city. It is the first restaurant in Xuzhou. Mi Zhu was forthright by nature and liked to make friends with people with lofty aspirations. He liked to associate with Jianghu experts the most. (An official rank expert is an official or an official of a certain vassal, while a martial arts expert is a general in the wild.)
The Moon Pavilion was also the tallest building in Xuzhou. It was divided into four floors. Climbing to the highest point of the roof at night seemed to be able to embrace the moon in the sky. That was how the restaurant got its name.
At this moment, the building was bustling with noise and excitement. The other famous thing about this building was the stairs. There were only two vertical long bamboos. Those with average lightness skills could only go up to the second floor, those with better lightness skills could go up to the third floor, and those with lightness skills could go up to the top floor. As long as they could reach the top floor, all the drinks were free.
Many martial artists who liked to show off or wanted to attract Mi Zhu's attention chose a more eye-catching method, jumping out of the window.
The commoners on the streets often saw people with knives hanging from their waists or swords in their hands. Jianghu experts flew upstairs. Whenever such people appeared, they would attract the attention of the surrounding commoners or other rangers. They would gather around and shout for them.
There were even some who tried to go up to the second floor but failed repeatedly, causing the surrounding commoners to laugh at them. They suddenly used their qinggong to jump up to the third floor, which was even higher, and entered the restaurant proudly, leaving behind a group of dumbfounded onlookers.
The second floor was almost full of people.
The building was as noisy as a street market. One couldn't hear clearly without shouting. There were martial arts masters fighting everywhere. Some of them even picked up their weapons and hit the long table to scare the other party.
Two people came up silently and found an empty seat to sit down. These two people were Han Shang and Zhao Yun. On their way back to Jizhou, they passed by Xiao Pei and heard that there was such a strange restaurant here, so they came to take a look.
Not far from the front table, more than ten people had gathered and were divided into two sides.
Han Shang looked over with interest.
" If you dare to say that Cao Zixiao is the third most powerful being in the world, I will chop you up!" A black-bearded barbarian threatened as he held his saber. His brothers at the side also brandished their weapons.
"What? You can't win, so you want to use force?" The other party was fearless.
" No matter what, Zhao Zilong is the Spear God, and Cao Ren is no match for him. If he didn't rely on the General Star, he would be a second-rate general. He can't even be considered first-rate," the barbarian said.
The people opposite him laughed in unison. The leader was dressed in green and held a large knife in his hand. He said coldly,"If Zhao Yun hadn't been rescued by Han Shang, she would have been burned to ashes by the hellfire. It's not bad to be ranked fourth."
The two groups of people argued with each other.
At this moment, the waiter of the restaurant suddenly shouted," New news, new news!"
The quarreling Jianghu people in the building stopped and looked at the servant boy waiting for him to announce the new news. For a moment, the building was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
The servant paused for a moment before announcing,"There's news from Yanzhou. Cao Ren hasn't returned to the camp yet. The Divine Image Sect predicted that Cao Ren was heavily injured and has hidden to recuperate."
"Whoosh!"
Just now, the barbarians had been cheering for the whole day, and Cao Ren's supporters had been suppressed.
Opposite Han Shang, the corner of Zhao Yun's eyes twitched, and the corners of his mouth curled up into an imperceptible smile. Although he said that he didn't mind the ranking, that smile completely betrayed him.
"Zilong, why are you laughing for no reason?" Han Shang asked teasingly.
Zhao Yun's face instantly turned red.
The servant shouted again,"The latest news, the latest news."
Once again, the restaurant quieted down and waited for the waiter to announce the news. Only at this time could the waiter feel his importance.
" According to reliable sources, Huang Hansheng, the Blade and Arrow Dual-Master, failed to track down Sun Ce. He has already returned to the military camp," the servant said.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a discussion in the building.
" I didn't expect Sun Ce to dodge Huang Hansheng's tracking technique. I dare say that Sun Ce will definitely be ranked on the Star Dou Warrior Ranking in less than three years," a middle-aged man in the building said.
Everyone knew that Huang Hansheng could kill people from a hundred miles away mainly because his cultivation method was very special. His Qi could lock onto any creature within a hundred miles. One could imagine how high his attainments in tracking were.
" Sun Ce is on the list, who's off?" someone asked.
" Of course it's Han Zifeng from Jizhou," the middle-aged man said with certainty.
Not far away, Han Shang almost spat out the wine he had just drunk. Zhao Yun was laughing loudly opposite him. At this moment, there were no lords or subordinates, only close brothers who supported each other in life and death.
" My lord, are you alright?" Zhao Yun pretended to be concerned.
Han Shang was much more thick-skinned. He said in a low voice,"I'm fine. I drank too much. Actually, with my strength, I'm not enough to enter the rankings. It's just that the Divine Image Sect can afford it."
Han Shang knew very well that Donglai Taishi Ci was the same as Cao Ren. The reason why he was able to enter the 'Star Dou Valiant General Ranking' was because of the powerful power of the General Star Possession. If Taishi Ci had summoned his natal General Star Possession before he used his killing move, Han Shang would not have had the chance to enter the bottom of the ranking.
Now, everyone knew that he had the upper hand in the battle with Taishi Ci. He had almost killed Taishi Ci. In the eyes of the world, he had already defeated Taishi Ci.
Taishi Ci's reputation was greatly damaged in this battle.
Hearing Han Shang's words, Zhao Yun nodded and did not say anything else. Zhao Yun was a very fair person. She did not exaggerate or belittle him. Currently, there were a lot of official rank experts in the world who could kill Han Shang on their own other than the Star Dou Valiant General Ranking. For example, Zhang Liao, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Wei Yan, and others could not get to the bottom of the rankings. They just seized the opportunity to fight beautifully.
The servant shouted again,"The latest news, the latest news!"
The building quieted down once again as everyone anxiously waited for the servant to announce the news." According to reliable sources, Han Zifeng from Wing Prefecture and Spear God Zhao Zilong were seen entering Xu Prefecture with their own eyes. They might be heading towards our Xiao Pei."
" Hua!" The building instantly exploded.
"Two experts came to our Xiao Pei, together with General Guan Yu and General Fei, our Xiao Pei has gathered four top-notch experts of the official rank on the Star Dou Valiant General List. They are not inferior to Lu Jiang at all, don't you think so?”A man said happily. It seemed that he was born and raised in Xiaopei, and he was extremely proud of his hometown.
The people in the building echoed, and the atmosphere was warm.
"General Fei has always been dissatisfied with Zhao Zilong's ranking. Now that Zhao Yun has come to Xiao Pei, he might be able to witness the peerless battle between the two experts on the Star Dou General Ranking."
When Yuan Shao was plotting against Jizhou, Liu Bei was schemed against by Han Shang and joined the battle. Later, he lost his position as Pingyuan County Magistrate and joined Tao Qian, becoming the Lord of Little Pei.
Now, under Liu Bei's rule, Xiao Pei was flourishing day by day.
