Originally, Hu Yanlong had already secured victory.

After defeating the top five newcomers, there is no one left to compete with him for the position of vice-captain.

He seemed to have seen the scene where he became the vice-captain and was awarded the eighth rank.

However, the sudden sound made Hu Yanlong feel a hint of anger in his heart.

Hu Ming appeared and brought Fang Chen here.

Everyone looked at Hu Ming in unison, wondering what Hu Ming meant.

"Captain Hu, did you just say that this newcomer will take over the position of vice-captain?" Hu Yanlong asked, suppressing the anger in his heart.

Hu Ming nodded and said: "Yes, from today on, Fang Chen will be the deputy captain of our third escort team."

Hu Ming's words completely made Hu Yanlong furious.

Although Hu Yanlong respected Hu Ming very much, he looked down on Fang Chen.

How could he be convinced that a newcomer, whose cultivation level was only at the third level of Xuanwang Realm, was stepping on him as the deputy captain of the escort team?

"Captain Hu, didn't you say that the vice-captain will be selected from the whole team? It hasn't started yet, but you have decided to appoint him as the vice-captain. I Hu Yanlong refuses to accept it." Hu Yanlong said solemnly.

"As a vice-captain, you must have strong force. Is he a third-level Xuanwang Realm guy?"

Hu Yanlong was very unhappy. He had just defeated the top five newcomers and was preparing to win the position of vice-captain, but now something happened.

In an instant, Hu Yanlong vented all his unhappy emotions.

When Hu Ming heard this, he did not scold Hu Yanlong.

He could understand Hu Yanlong's mood, but he had no choice.

Because this decision was not made by him, but was given by the city lord himself.

Three days ago, when he and Fang Chen left the meeting hall, the Lord of the City sent a message to him about this matter.

In Tianjian Mansion, the City Lord is the strongest decision-maker, and no one can refute the City Lord's decision.

"Hu Yanlong, I understand how you feel." Hu Ming said slowly.

"Captain, our third escort team respects you as the leader, but you can't make fun of the life and death of the entire team, right?" Hu Yanlong said.

"Captain, we don't accept Fang Chen being the deputy captain."

Many team members shouted and expressed their dissatisfaction.

Hu Ming sighed slightly, and then said: "This is the decision of the Lord of the City."

As soon as Hu Ming said this, everyone was shocked.

The city lord’s decision? How is it possible?

After a brief shock, everyone looked at Fang Chen solemnly.

"Is this really the city lord's decision?" Hu Yanlong's face was filled with helplessness, his brows furrowed.

Hu Ming nodded heavily.

When Hu Yanlong saw this, his heart was full of unwillingness.

"Why? He, a low-level warrior in the Xuanwang realm, can be the vice-captain, but I, Hu Yanlong, have worked hard for so many years, but I am not even given a fair chance to compete as a vice-captain?"

Hu Yanlong shouted loudly, feeling very aggrieved.

His eyes were full of resentment as he looked at Fang Chen.

Hu Ming had nothing to do about this. This was the decision of the city lord.

"The decision of the city lord cannot be doubted. From today on, I hope everyone can respect our deputy captain Fang Chen." Hu Ming said: "Okay, everyone should disperse."

Then, Hu Ming said to Fang Chen: "Fang Chen, follow me."

Although Fang Chen didn't speak just now, he was quite surprised in his heart.

Why does the city lord want him to be the deputy captain?

Along the way, Fang Chen was very confused.

"Fang Chen, it seems that the City Lord values ​​you very much. You must know that the City Lord has never made an exception to take care of others like this." Hu Ming said with a grin.

"Captain Hu, where are we going now?" Fang Chen asked.

"Follow me to the First Army Headquarters."

At the first army headquarters, the captains and deputy captains of the three major escort teams are all present.

When Fang Chen and Hu Ming arrived, everyone else came.

At the top position, two middle-aged men sat. The aura on their bodies was very heavy.

"Tiangang Realm?"

As soon as he entered the hall, Fang Chen noticed the extraordinary appearance of the two middle-aged men at the top.

The aura on their bodies is exactly the same as that of the Lord of the City, but much weaker than the Lord of the City.

One could recognize at a glance that these two people were strong men in the Tiangang Realm.

"Fang Chen brings you two commanders," Hu Ming said, cupping his hands at the two of them.

The two looked at each other and then nodded.

"From today on, Fang Chen will be the vice-captain of the third escort team, and is now awarded the eighth rank."

Granting the eighth level means that within the territory of Tianjian Mansion, ninth level and non-level warriors cannot take action against them.

"Thank you two commanders." Fang Chen was overjoyed.

Being in the eighth level, one can be considered to have initial security in Tianjian Mansion.

At the very least, even Master Jianhen and Dai Hongxuan did not dare to attack him easily.

Dai Hongxuan and Master Jianhen are at the ninth level and have no right to take action against Fang Chen.

Once you are caught secretly attacking a high-ranking person, the punishment will be severe.

After the rank award ceremony was completed, the two commanders left the hall.

At this time, the other three captains and deputy captains of the escort team looked at Fang Chen with disdain in their eyes.

"Hmph, you're just so lucky, with a low-level cultivation in the Xuanwang realm, you actually became the vice-captain."

"In my opinion, there must be no one left in this third escort team. Is the vice-captain so weak?"

"Don't talk nonsense, this is what the Lord of the City meant."

In response to everyone's ridicule, Hu Ming snorted coldly and did not respond.

Take Fang Chen and leave.

…………

In the blink of an eye, it has been three months since I joined Tianjian Mansion.

During this time, Fang Chen has been living in the third escort team.

In this way, I saved a lot of amethyst stones, and my cultivation level was gradually improving.

The little mouse was in trouble, because this was the third guard team and the rules were strict, and Fang Chen didn't dare to let the little mouse run around.

The little mouse has been staying in the space ring.

These three months have been very peaceful.

Although many people look down on Fang Chen, because of his position, everyone will say hello when they meet him.

On this day, the peaceful days passed, and the mission finally came.

This is the first time Fang Chen has received a mission.

In the third escort team, Hu Ming found Fang Chen.

"Fang Chen, there is a mission this time, and you need to lead the members to complete it." Hu Ming said solemnly.

"Captain Hu, what's the mission?"

After three months of comfortable life here, Fang Chen felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to go out for a walk.

"In a secret place within the Tianjian Mansion, the Demon Blood Clan has been discovered. You need to lead a team to eradicate it," Hu Ming said.

"When will we set off?" Fang Chen asked.

"Today." Hu Ming pondered for a moment, and then warned: "This mission is extremely dangerous. You will lead the top five newcomers and Hu Yanlong to complete it together. Remember, you must be careful."

During the last mission, the Third Guard lost 200 people, including the deputy captain.

Hu Ming was hit hard, and this mission was also very dangerous, but there was nothing he could do.

The new vice-captain must lead the team to complete the mission.

It can also be regarded as a test for the vice-captain.

"I know."
