The next day was the last day of the martial arts examination, and the fifty candidates in the examination room outside the city and inside the city would usually compete to win the competition, and the metropolitan governor Xiao Ke would lead many officers to watch the competition in person.

However, Wu Zhuangyuan, Wu Bangyan, and Wu Tanhua are not directly generated, and after the competition selects the best ten candidates, the Metropolitan Governor will nod three from these ten candidates, the first place is naturally Wu Zhuangyuan, the second place is Wu Bangyan, and the third place is Wu Tanhua.

In other words, at the end of the game, it is the Metropolitan Governor who decides who is the champion.

However, basically no one has any objection to this, because it has been the case since ancient times, such as the imperial examination in ancient times, and in the end, there was also an emperor who was the champion on the Golden Palace.

Just like Chen Ning said, many people advanced to today's final game, and all they wanted in their hearts was to do their best to obey the fate of God and win every game first.

In order to show fairness, today's game was held in a stadium outside Suzaku City, so that the displaced people outside the city could watch the game and let them understand that the empire would not bury talents. Regardless of whether he is a commoner or a nobleman, the basic criterion for being reused is ability!

At nine o'clock in the morning, there was a sea of people outside Suzaku City, and there were onlookers everywhere, and tens of thousands of imperial soldiers were maintaining order.

Metropolitan Governor Xiao Ke and a group of senior military officers such as Qin Que, Duan Canglong, Yu Wenyuan, Bai Chongshan, Liu Luanlin, and Butcher came to the VIP seat to watch the game.

The 100 candidates who advanced to today's competition have all been in place and started the on-site lottery ceremony.

A staff member with a slightly strange face, holding a box in his hand to let Chen Ning draw lots, Chen Ning grabbed a ball casually, then crushed it, took out the note in the ball and handed it to the staff, the staff glanced at the note and read it out loud: "No. 009 candidate Chen Ning, today's first opponent is No. 001 candidate Xiao Zhuo." ”

In fact, Chen Ning and Xiao Zhuo are two candidates who have attracted more attention.

The reason why Chen Ning has attracted attention is because he performed too well in the previous games, his strength was crushing throughout the whole process, most of the opponents were defeated by him with one move, and even Liu Ming was directly killed by Chen Ning;

But what many people didn't expect was that Chen Ning and Xiao Zhuo, the two guys who attracted much attention, actually met by lottery at the beginning of today's game, which means that Chen Ning and Xiao Zhuo, one of them must be eliminated.

And according to the reward rules of the martial arts, if you enter the top 100, you will only get a small reward, and the rank of second lieutenant will be awarded.

This reward is very attractive to the homeless, but it is useless for Chen Ning and Xiao Zhuo, because Xiao Zhuo looks down on it, and Chen Ning is already a captain.

Xiao Zhuo didn't expect him to encounter Chen Ning, he was a little shocked when he heard the staff's reading, and then turned his head to look at Chen Ning, and snorted coldly in his nostrils, Chen Ning kicked him before, and caused him to be expelled from the army and driven out of the Immortal Bird Legion, and he still hates Chen Ning in his heart.

However, Shibetsu should be impressed for three days.

Xiao Zhuo is no longer the Xiao Zhuo he was some time ago, after he was expelled from the Immortal Bird Legion, he began to be angry and try to become stronger.

Of course, his anger was not his own efforts, but he asked for the consent of his parents and took out a large amount of money to buy expensive potions to help him improve his strength.

In fact, in the wealthy aristocracy, strength can be piled up with a huge amount of money to buy various potions, such as expensive potions of inducing potential, etc., which can help quickly improve strength.

But the higher the level, the more money tends to be spent.

Xiao Zhuo's parents spent more than 200,000 gold coins this time to transfer Xiao Zhuo from a sixth-level general to the level of a seventh-level general.

200,000 gold coins, even if it is a medium-sized wealthy family gatekeeper, it may not be able to take it out, Xiao Zhuo spent this huge amount of money, which also symbolizes that he is determined to win the martial champion this time.

Xiao Zhuo is not afraid of anyone in this group of candidates, except for Chen Ning, although he is still promoted to a seventh-level general, he is still afraid of Chen Ning, after all, he was a sixth-level general before, but he can't even resist Chen Ning's kick.

Therefore, when he found out that his first opponent today was Chen Ning, he moved his mind.

Chen Ning still went to the lounge, warmed up, and prepared for the upcoming game.

When he finished warming up and was about to come out of the lounge, Qin Que suddenly came over with a few of his subordinates.

Chen Ning was a little surprised to see Qin Que, and snapped a military salute: "I've seen the general." ”

Qin Que waved his hand and let a few soldiers behind him go out, and only she and Chen Ning were left in the lounge, so she slowly spoke: "Chen Ning, I came here because I wanted to tell you something." ”

"Command, General. ”

"Have you heard any rumors about Xiao Zhuo?"

"What rumors?"

"About this competition. ”

"I heard some rumors that he was the cousin of the Grand Governor, the martial champion of the inner designation. ”

Qin Que nodded: "Just now I saw Xiao Zhuo come over to ask the Metropolitan Governor for peace, and the Metropolitan Governor also encouraged him on the spot, and I also heard that Xiao Ke is indeed a candidate." So I came here this time to persuade you to release water in the game, otherwise even if you defeat Xiao Zhuo, but you offend the Grand Duke, you will end up worrying. ”

Chen Ning looked at Qin Que: "The general came to me this time, did he order me, or did he advise me?"

Qin Que was stunned: "Is it different?"

Chen Ning stood in a standard military posture, not squinting: "Yes, if it is an order, then I will carry it out according to the order, if it is an advice, then I will decide for myself." ”

Qin Que understood, Chen Ning's meaning was very simple, if Qin Que ordered him to release water in the competition, then it was the duty of the warrior to obey the orders of his superiors, and Chen Ning would carry out the order even if he complained. But if Qin Que didn't order him to do this as a superior, but just advised, he would do what he wanted.

Qin Que originally wanted to say that this was an order, because in this way, Chen Ning could avoid offending the Grand Governor, but when she looked at Chen Ning, her eyes couldn't help but meet Chen Ning's eyes, she found that Chen Ning's eyes no longer had the previous integrity, perseverance and faith, there were just endless sadness and melancholy, there seemed to be endless stories, hidden in these sad eyes, silently emitting a deep light, what a pair of sad and deep eyes!

Qin Que couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and finally spoke slowly: "This is not an order, but an exhortation from a private identity...... Well, even if it's the kind of advice between friends. ”

Hearing this, the sadness in Chen Ning's eyes dissipated a lot, and he regained a trace of vitality, and he said softly: "Thank you, General, but this is my only chance to rebuild the Black Storm, and I will not give up." ”

At this moment, the game was about to start, and after Chen Ning finished speaking, he left the lounge, making Qin Que couldn't help but sigh.

Soon, Chen Ning and Xiao Zhuo both appeared in the ring at the same time.

In an instant, the audience resounded with cheers, although there were 50 rings in the examination room, and 100 candidates competed at the same time, but the ring where Chen Ning and Xiao Zhuo competed, the audience was far more than that of other regions, because the strength of Chen Ning and Xiao Zhuo can be said to be one of the strongest candidates, this game is a strong match, and many viewers feel that this game can even be said to be the first to come to the finals!

Kan Jing, Bai Yuhao, Su Luo, Bull Demon King, Da Luo Xiaoluo, including the old man Fangzheng and the Gu family sisters, as well as Liu Ruyan and others, all came to cheer Chen Ning in person, and Xiao Zhuo also had many relatives and friends who came to cheer for him on the spot.

In the audience's VIP seat, Xiao Ke, the metropolitan governor who was surrounded by a group of officers and stars, also set his eyes on the ring between Chen Ning and Xiao Zhuo, and several officers next to him complimented: "Haha, look at the cousin Xiao Zhuo of the metropolitan governor's cousin Xiao Zhuo's performance today, Xiao Zhuo is the leader of the new generation of the Xiao family, and he is a strong contender for the martial champion this time!"

The Governor was always smiling, unable to see what he really thought.

Liu Luanlin, who was not far away, was secretly sneering, thinking: Hehe, Chen Ning and Xiao Zhuo are opposed, I want to see if the two of them eat dogs, what is the final result?
