Subsequent Personnel Arrangements

"Tap, tap, tap..."

One figure after another walked out of the venue.

A solemn expression was on everyone's face, though to varying degrees.

Shen Heng also walked out of the venue.

However, before they had gone very far, a voice came from behind.

"Comrade Shen Heng! Comrade Shen Heng!"

Shen Heng paused slightly, looking back.

Then, Qi Yue, whom they had met in Suicheng before, came walking in from behind with two people.

Qi Yue led the two over, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

But soon, he seemed to realize that the situation wasn't suitable for smiling, so he quickly suppressed his smile and gestured to the two people beside him, introducing them as follows:

"This is Lin Yang from Lingyang, and this is Chu Yu from Huguang. They were the ones who went to Suicheng to provide support last time."

"But unlike me, they were too badly injured to get up."

"After you killed the Bone Porcelain Puppet, you just left, so they didn't see you."

"Just as I was leaving, they found me and asked me to bring them over to thank me."

Shen Heng turned his gaze to the other two people.

Lin Yang was a man who looked to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. He stood up straight, and his eyes revealed a hint of gratitude.

Chu Yu wore a simple ponytail. Her appearance wasn't particularly outstanding, but her overall facial features were quite pleasing to the eye.

"Comrade Shen Heng, thank you for your help with the matter in Suicheng." Lin Yang spoke first, his voice slightly hoarse, yet with the crispness and decisiveness of a soldier. "We will remember this favor."

Chu Yu, who was standing nearby, quickly stepped forward and added softly:

"Yes, if it weren't for you, we would probably all be dead there."

Shen Heng nodded slightly and said calmly, "No need, it's just my duty."

Hearing Shen Heng's calm words, a hint of surprise flashed across Chu Yu's eyes.

When she learned that the other person was the one who had saved them that day, she had assumed that he would be a sharp-tongued and spirited individual.

After all, he has such strength at such a young age, and has even become the head of a city. He has every right to be arrogant.

Even if it's not outwardly obvious, when you hear their gratitude, you should at least show a hint of self-satisfaction or the joy of being thanked.

To everyone's surprise, the other party was very calm, showing none of the arrogance or frivolity often seen in young people.

She could tell that what the other person had just said wasn't just polite talk; they genuinely didn't care about saving them.

Perhaps for him, it really was just a routine job.

Even so, Chu Yu silently remembered this kindness.

After all, duty is duty, but they were also genuinely saved by the other party.

Lin Yang's thoughts differed somewhat from hers, but were largely the same.

Just then, the sound of conversation suddenly came from the side.

"... Brother Wang, what's your choice? Will you sign up to stay in the province, or go to the Erosion Zone?"

"Heh, of course we're going to the Erosion Zone. Only through combat can we quickly become stronger. Staying here might be safer..."

Three figures walked past the group, talking amongst themselves.

Shen Heng looked at the three men, his gaze lingering on the relatively short man in the middle with dark yellow skin.

That was someone who had just raised a question at the meeting.

As for the issues discussed by the other party, those were the follow-up topics discussed at the meeting, namely the personnel arrangements for the Supervision Bureau.

The Erosion Zone require a large number of the Supervision Bureau members, but the city cannot be ignored either.

Therefore, each municipal Supervision Bureau selects 2-3 people to submit their names.

Of these, the Fourth Tier cases must be reported.

However, you can add a note indicating whether you wish to apply to remain within the province.

After all, the Light Gate that will appear in various places later will still need to be dealt with by people.

If all the Fourth Tier units were transferred away, the city might be in danger.

However, this reserve will not be too large; at most, only one or two reserves will be reserved for each province.

The Calamity Beast inside the Light Gate won't come out immediately; there's still time. If they sense it's too dangerous, they can always bring in more personnel from other provinces and cities.

"Heh heh, Wang Hu and his group really have a good attitude!" Qi Yue laughed as he looked at the group of people passing by.

Shen Heng turned back and asked, "Do you know him?"

"Huh? You don't recognize him?" Qi Yue and the other two looked at Shen Heng in surprise.

"Uh, should I know them?" Shen Heng looked at the group with a puzzled expression.

"Hmm... what do you usually do in your free time?" Chu Yu asked thoughtfully from the side.

Shen Heng said, "Cultivation, handling various matters, and daily life leave me with very little free time."

"Why does this take so much time?" Qi Yue asked, somewhat puzzled.

"If you have extra time, just add it to your cultivation," Shen Heng said.

"Uh, this..."

Qi Yue and the other two couldn't help but twitch their lips a few times.

They now understood why the other party possessed such strength at such a young age.

But... how can anyone stand this?

Shen Heng glanced at the expressions on their faces and added:

"It's not that I have absolutely no free time, just not much."

The three nodded, unsure whether they believed it or not.

Chu Yu explained:

"In the last incident, Wang Hu single-handedly killed a Near-S-Class Fang-Splitting Tiger."

"The video was filmed by someone nearby and then posted to our internal Supervision Bureau, which is why it went viral within our Supervision Bureau, basically..."

Chu Yu paused, glanced at Shen Heng, and said:

"Most people who frequent the internal forums know what he looks like."

Shen Heng nodded slightly.

The Supervision Bureau's internal forum was launched by headquarters to replace the previous Martial World Easy Exchange forum, which was used for exchanging suggestions and feedback.

He tried watching it at first, but after finding that there was basically nothing meaningful to see, he stopped watching it.

"He wasn't the only one who became famous after the last incident; there was also Li Zhenguo, the Huadong City representative who just asked the question, as well as Han Qiang from Northeast China and Zhuo Hao, among others."

"Each of them became famous on the forums after single-handedly dealing with a Near-S-Class Calamity Beast; there were even discussions about who was the number one among the Fourth Tier."

"Have you come to a conclusion?" Shen Heng asked, showing little interest.

"No, how would you know if you haven't actually fought them?" Qi Yue laughed.

"Judging from their fighting performance in the forum, none of them showed an overwhelming advantage; rather, they all had a tough time."

At this point, Qi Yue seemed to remember something and looked at Shen Heng.

"I think if you really want to run for the top person below Fourth Tier, you should give it a try."

"Judging from the fighting spirit you displayed that day, I think you have a very good chance."
