1629 Enemies On A Narrow Path (1/2)

”Zu Xiangtian,” the man with thick brows said. He sounded like the others would immediately know who he was as soon as he mentioned his name.
Unfortunately, Mo Fan had never really cared about the renowned clans and their prominent figures. He was about to ask the man who he was when Leng Qing tugged his sleeve, hinting to him that there was no need to complicate the matter any further.
”How ignorant can you be? You should know who Zu Jiming is, right?” the proud handsome man spoke up.
”Zu Jiming... it sounds a little familiar,” Mo Fan recalled. The name sounded familiar, but he was struggling to remember who the person was.
”He was a member of the national team!” the handsome man snapped.
”Oh, that guy. Are you two from the same clan as him?” Mo Fan finally realized.
So it was that idiot Zu Jiming, the guy that did nothing apart from sneering and trying to set them up? Even Guan Yu was less of an eyesore than Zu Jiming. That Zu Jiming was nothing but a retard!
Zu Jiming was replaced in the last match during the World College Tournament, Mui Nujiao taking his spot. Zu Jiming had visited many countries during the training that had lasted for more than a year, yet his contributions were inferior to Mui Nujiao, who only took part in the last match during the World College Tournament.
That being said, Zu Jiming was only a side character. The one who was influential back then was the chairman's secretary, Zu Huiyin. She was a powerful government official, yet she had lost her job under pressure from the people of the Ancient Capital because of her inappropriate remarks!
The chairman's secretary was comparable to the role of a Councilman, and their status was slightly higher than one. However, not only had the Zu Clan failed to earn any recognition during the World College Tournament and lost an important government position, they were greatly condemned by the people, too!
It was obvious why the people of the Zu Clan hated Mo Fan so much.
The Zu Clan was famous in China. The Mu Clan was known for their Mages, the Zhao Clan was known for their wealth, while the Zu Clan was said to be the country's pride...
The Zu Clan was extremely resourceful, with a massive network of connections. Many of their people were appointed officials, and Zu Huiyin was one of the future leaders that the clan had high hopes for.
The clan needed to hold a certain power in the country to be able to be well-received internationally. It was the key to extending their influence, so Zu Huiyin had been playing an important role in the clan. She had always behaved herself and worked diligently. Even though Councilman Shao Zheng was not too fond of her, he never had a reasonable excuse to stop her from climbing higher.
Zu Xiangtian was Zu Jiming's elder brother. He had been a member of the national team during the previous World College Tournament. He was quite famous at the international level, on par with someone like Herr Casa!
As a matter of fact, those that had managed to earn a reputation during the World College Tournament in the past had often secured great fame and status from their achievements. The greatest factor in their success was their ability to achieve the Super Level at a young age!
The reputation they earned during the World College Tournament...
Strength in the Super Level at a young age...
Their formidable backgrounds...
