SSS rank Mother-In-Law to an Invincible Family

Her voice rang clearly through the air, filled with confidence and determination.

"WHOAAA!"

The audience cheered after she said that, as this was the first time many people had seen someone challenge for the City Lord position.

This was because the World's Will had installed memories that the past City Lord ruled for over 50 years and passed away a few months ago without any successor.

Xu Qianghua did not use his Cultivation Realm or the Shadow members to force the citizens to submit because the city still had enough protection.

Some cultivators were at the Gold Core Realm but were old and about to die soon. They spent most of their time behind closed doors, trying to reach the next level.

Also, this way of doing things would be detrimental in the long run. In the minds and hearts of the citizens, Xu Qianghua and his family would be seen as the bad guys who used force to control the city.

This is why the World's Will required the City Lord challengers to fight before the citizens.

This would gain more supporters from the citizens, who could see what type of person the challenger was and how they treated the fight.

So, when Huang Xinyi took this fight seriously, confidently, and determinedly, the people who had experienced the past City Lord saw this and had a better impression of her, as it can be seen that she is giving her all.

But that was for later.

On the stage, the Sentinel stood wearing full black armor with only his blue eyes visible.

They had a curious light as he watched the challenger rile up the crowd with just a few words.

However, the Sentinel did not think much about this as it had limited intelligence.

It used this to bring out its challengers' full potential while using the combat experience it gained from its host body.

Soon, the crowd fell silent, watching closely as Huang Xinyi took a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves.

The Sentinel, a huge figure in black armor, stood still across from her. His eyes glowed blue, and a powerful aura surrounded his frame.

Huang Xinyi drew her sword, its blade shining in the sunlight. She readied herself like a practiced fighter, steady and confident. The Sentinel lifted his giant sword, saluting her before getting ready to fight.

With a quick move, Huang Xinyi jumped forward, aiming her sword at the Sentinel's chest. But before the sword could reach the target...

CLAAAANG!

The loud clang of metal rang out as their swords clashed. The Sentinel swung back hard, making Huang Xinyi dodge and roll to the side.

Xu Qianghua and the audience watched closely, their eyes never leaving the fight. This was one of the best ways to get to know the future City Lord.

For the citizens, strength was much more important than skills in internal affairs. Without a powerful leader, their lives would be much harder with all the wild beasts outside the city walls.

In the ring, Huang Xinyi attacked again, her strikes getting quicker and more precise. She tested his defenses and aimed for the weak spots in the Sentinel's armor. The Sentinel blocked her attacks easily, moving smoothly.

'I need to find a weak spot. Where is it? Stay calm, breathe, and focus,' she thought as her mind raced.

The fight continued, neither giving up. Huang Xinyi's determination to win showed in every move, her eyes locked on her opponent.

She knew she had to find a weak spot in the Sentinel's defense.

Suddenly, the Sentinel swung his sword in a wide arc, trying to overpower Huang Xinyi with sheer force.

She saw it coming, ducked under his blade, and struck his side. The Sentinel stumbled, a small, old crack appearing in his armor.

This crack was left on purpose for the challenger as a way to win without using too much energy. Without this small crack, the Sentinel was unbeatable in the same realm.

'There! A crack! I can do this!'

The crowd gasped as they saw the move, excitement buzzing through them. Huang Xinyi saw her chance and attacked relentlessly.

She aimed every strike at the growing crack in the Sentinel's armor.

The Sentinel tried to defend himself, but she was too fast, leaving him little room to defend.

'Don't stop now. Keep pushing. We're almost there,' she thought as she saw the Sentinel slowing down.

"Radiant Sun Strike!" Huang Xinyi shouted, her sword glowing brightly. She swung it down with all her strength, hitting the Sentinel's armor.

With this final, decisive strike, Huang Xinyi's sword shattered the Sentinel's armor, pieces flying everywhere. The Sentinel fell to his knees, defeated.

The crowd exploded in cheers, clearly impressed with the new City Lord challenger.

"Hah... hah..." Huang Xinyi panted, feeling the weight of her effort. 'I did it. I really did it.'

"Good job, Xinyi!" Xu Qianghua called out, rushing to her side. "You did a great job!"

Huang Xinyi smiled, exhausted but happy. "Thank you, Master."

The arena was filled with applause and cheers as the citizens of Jingzhong watched their soon-to-be City Lord win.

The Sentinel got up and disappeared in a flash of light, leaving behind a black metal ring.

Ding

*Congratulations, you have proven your strength to the citizens of Jingzhong and have completed your first challenge.

You receive the first key of the City Lord's treasury, the initial recognition of the citizens, and the Guardian of the City's attention.*

Xu Qianghua smiled as he heard the game system's notification.

With this, one-third of the City Lord's trial was finished. The other two parts were left for tomorrow, as Huang Xinyi was tired from today's fight.

And a day or two delay would not make a difference in the long run.

As for others surpassing him? He was not worried about that either, as in his last life, it took the highest realm player three months to finish the City Lord trial.

This was because it took them more than a month to get used to their strength and another two months to perfect it before they could defeat a Sentinel who was lower level than this one.

Xu Qianghua did not forget that in this new life, the number of players and their spending were much larger than in his last life.

But before the merge, he checked the highest player after his family, and they were still stuck in the Late Body Building Realm.
