Besides the members of the Ten Symbols Alliance, there were many martial arts practicers on the Sea Conqueror, too . Jiang Chen joined the Cloud Symbol Alliance, because Tang Shiya was a disciple of the Yunlan School . "You Cloud Symbol Alliance will be held responsible for all the consequences arising later . " The Heaven Symbol Alliance liked Jiang Chen the least, since the Tianyi School lost face because of Jiang Chen in the Water Dragon City . Of course they hated him . Then, people from the other alliances left one by one . In the end only the middle-aged man from the Cloud Symbol Alliance stayed there . He took Jiang Chen and Tang Shiya into a big cabin . Jiang Chen got to know his name was Jiang Jinghai . Both of their surnames were Jiang . The Top Ten Sects and Schools made a great effort to build the Sea Conqueror, because they wanted to make the sea a resourceful treasure chest for them . In the vast sea, there were still many places to be explored . The Top Ten Sects and Schools found several resourceful places over many years . The route connecting these places was the ship route of the Sea Conqueror . People would get more stunned by how big the ship was when they were inside it . It was like a small city, bustling with people . "No one is allowed to leave the Sea Conqueror once we set off formally . We're only allowed to disembark from the ship after reaching the destination," Jiang Jinghai said . This was a measure to prevent outside people from knowing the location of the resourceful places . All of a sudden, Jiang Chen was piqued with curiosity . He wondered what in these resourceful places had attracted the Top Ten Sects and Schools, so that they had invested so many resources to go for it . "Shiya!"
At this moment, a group of people in Yunlan School's uniform came at brisk pace . One of the women greeted Tang Shiya warmly . "Apprentice sister!" Tang Shiya seemed to be very close to her . She ran over excitedly . Jiang Jinghai said, "Jiang Chen, although Ten Symbols Alliance asked you whether you wanted to join, in fact, many people are very eager to become a member of the Sea Conqueror . " "You know why you were given the chance to make a choice?" His serious tone struck Jiang Chen dumb . He looked towards Tang Shiya, and then nodded . "For some special reason, there are only limited beds and rooms on the ship . Many people experienced a stiff competition just to get a bed . " "Tang Shiya is a disciple of the Yunlan School . Of course she'll get a room . As to you . . . " The resourceful places the Sea Conqueror was heading for were full of opportunities . Many people would gain lots of wealth after traveling with the Sea Conqueror . That was why the Ten Symbols Alliance had recruited so many people . They didn't have to pay for anything . Instead, they would get many benefits .
Tang Shiya came back . She said, "Apprentice Brother Jiang, are we gonna start sailing tonight?" "Yes . "
Jiang Jinghai had a smile back on his face when he was speaking to Tang Shiya . "Jiang Chen, despite of the big size of the Sea Conqueror, when we start sailing, people can only sleep in the cabins . " Tang Shiya explained to Jiang Chen . Then she went on, "Apprentice Brother Liu gave his cabin to me . You can stay there . " "What about you?" Jiang Chen asked . "I'll stay with my apprentice sister," Tang Shiya said . "Shiya, the number of people staying in each cabin is limited . Besides, this is like Liu Feng gave his room to Jiang Chen," Jiang Jinghai said, feeling awkward . "But there is no more place, isn't there?"
"I would be able to figure out a way if we hadn't sailed, but now . . . "
Glancing at Jiang Chen, Jiang Jinghai said, "I'll put Jiang Jinghai on the third floor . It might not be so comfortable . " The Sea Conqueror had three floors . On the first floor were individual rooms . The second floor was a bit more crowded . On the third floor, many people slept together on the floor . And since it was at the bottom of the ship, there was no light . Most importantly, those who stayed on the third floor were all Reaching Heaven States . As a young Venerable, Jiang Chen might feel himself in a false position . Jiang Chen realized what Jiang Jinghai was insinuating . The latter wanted him to take the offer . Before he could answer, Tang Shiya said, "Jiang Chen will stay with me then . " Jiang Jinghai knitted his brows . He said, "Apprentice sister, there is only one bed in the room . " "Doesn't matter . " Tang Shiya didn't care at all .
"But if other people know . . . " Jiang Jinghai had to made it clear . "I don't care what others think . " Tang Shiya had made up her mind . She looked resolute, as if there was no space to negotiate . "Fine . " Jiang Jinghai gave up persuading her . Not until Jiang Chen and Tang Shiya entered the room did they realize there was really not enough space on the Sea Conqueror . The rooms on the first floor were only 30 square meters, and had a bed and some simple furniture . However, Jiang Chen detected the cabin was deployed with a ward . Then he recalled what Tang Shiya and Jiang Jinghai had said . He guessed these cabins could provide protection to the passengers when the Sea Conqueror was sailing in dangerous places . Some rapid footsteps came from the corridor out of the door when Jiang Chen was going to ask Tang Shiya about those resourceful places . The door, which wasn't locked, was open . A youngster appeared before them . He looked around as if he wanted to confirm something . He turned pale as soon as he saw Jiang Chen . "Apprentice sister, how could you!"
He didn't go on speaking, just gnashing his teeth . He was in love with Tang Shiya . He tidied up the room and let her to stay here without any hesitation, so that he could win her heart . However, Tang Shiya was going to stay here with Jiang Chen . He felt humiliated . "Apprentice Brother Liu Feng, anything wrong?" Tang Shiya was puzzled . She had no idea what had happened . "Apprentice sister, I really don't see what's so great about this man from the Realm of Nine Heavens!" Liu Feng cast the first stone . Pointing at Jiang Chen, he said, "Marquis
Champion of the Flying Dragon Dynasty doesn't have any authority at all . The Flying Dragon Dynasty is only using the title to appease public feelings . He is as humble as an ant . " "You went to take adventures together, but he almost got apprentice sister you into trouble . " "With neither connections nor high social standing, it's thanks to you that he has been allowed to stay on the Sea Conqueror and got a room . " "Enough!" Tang Shiya interrupted him in anger . She said sternly, "Apprentice Brother Liu Feng, please show some respect . " "Does he have anything worth my respect?" Liu Feng looked down on Jiang Chen . Pointing at Jiang Chen's nose, he said in anger, "You know what . If I weren't on the Sea Conqueror, I would have beaten you to death in the banquet!" Liu Feng was also a member of the Geniuses Group . He registered for the Great Competition of Three Realms, but since he was assigned a task, he wasn't able to take part in the competition in the Holy Martial Arts Yard or the banquet . He would participate in the Great Competition directly one month later . "What about you? Do you think you deserve anyone's respect?" Jiang Chen asked . "At least where you are staying belonged to me . You, a poor guy from the Realm of Nine Heavens, aren't a match for me," Liu Feng said arrogantly . "It's true . For example, in terms of shamelessness . "
Jiang Chen smiled coldly . He walked up to the bronze mirror in the cabin . His fingers glided on the smooth surface of the mirror . Liu Feng was put nervous by his movement . At the same time, more and more people gathered on the corridor . "Jiang Chen, anything wrong with the mirror?" Tang Shiya asked with curiosity . She didn't see anything wrong .
