Chapter 105: Dragon Gate Banquet!
The lights are on.
Outside the Prince's Mansion, the lights were bright, as bright as day, and there were cheers from inside the mansion.
Yang Xuan came from a distance, and when he heard the cheers from the mansion, his brows furrowed slightly: "Strange, isn't it a banquet? Why is there such a noise in the prince's mansion?"
"Because it's a martial arts feast. β
Lan Wan hesitated for a moment, and then added: "Prince Li Xuanji advocates martial arts, I heard that every few days of the month, he will hold a competition in the mansion, looking at these cheers, presumably the martial arts banquet has begun." β
The martial banquet in the prince's mansion, also known as the Dragon Gate Banquet, has been famous in the imperial capital for a long time.
It is said that before the start of each Dragon Gate Feast, a competition is held, in which the warriors present compete for the only ten places.
Plainly!
Only the strong are qualified to drink with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Qinwu County!
Therefore!
The Dragon Gate Banquet has also become a shortcut for young warriors who have no money and no power to climb to a high position, and these warriors are not only from the three major academies, but also from other regions of Qinwu County, which also makes every competition for the Dragon Gate Banquet extremely exciting.
"Li Xuanji had sent people to invite Su Xuemei to the banquet several times before, but unfortunately Su Xuemei refused, I don't know if Su Xuemei disappeared for no reason this time, and whether it has anything to do with him. β
Lan Wan said softly.
Li Xuanji's previous overtures to Su Li'er have long been known to everyone in Qingyun Academy.
In this regard, Yang Xuan's eyes moved slightly.
Su Lier was strongly "invited" by Li Xuanji to come here, but it is also possible.
After all, this banquet was organized by Li Xuanji, and the contestants included the proud sons of the three major academies, as well as the young generation of people in the Qinwu Junguo.
Just ask, what occasion is more than this, let him show off his noble status.
"Hmph, no matter what, no one wants to stop me from taking Li'er away today!"
With a light snort in his mouth, Yang Xuan immediately walked towards the mansion.
Seeing this, Lan Wan couldn't help but sigh, and then quickly followed, after telling the guards at the door that she and Yang Xuan were both students of Qingyun Academy.
The two of them entered all the way, but it was unimpeded.
It didn't take long for them to come to a two-hundred-meter-square fighting platform.
Looking ahead, at this moment, the outside of the Douwu platform was actually surrounded by martial artists, at least hundreds of people, and the situation here was even more lively than it sounded outside.
That's it!
A warrior in his early twenties ascended to the fighting platform, this person looked ordinary, but this person was like a sharp sword out of the sheath, and the cold light shone.
In his hand, he held a vermilion long sword even tighter, and as soon as he appeared on the stage, he saw him holding the sword in both hands and facing around, and said: "In Xia Liuhong, a student of the inner courtyard of the Jade Tiger Academy, this is the first time to participate in the Dragon Gate Banquet, and I hope that you will not hesitate to give advice!"
"Liu Hong!"
As soon as she heard this name, Lan Wan, who was at the outskirts of the crowd, frowned: "It's actually him! This Liu Hong is twenty-one years old this year, and he has been promoted to the martial arts realm, and he can be regarded as a man of the year in the Jade Tiger Academy!"
There are three major colleges in Qinwu County.
They are Qingyun Academy, Jade Tiger Academy, and even Seven Star Academy.
Although there are differences, the rules of these three academies are still the same, and only those who are promoted to the martial arts realm can be eligible to enter the inner courtyard.
With the entry of this Liu Hong, the liveliness of the audience was even more intense than just now.
"Liu Hong is a ruthless character, it is said that his swordsmanship is superb, I will give a thousand gold coins and bet him to win three games in a row!"
"Although Liu Hong is famous, he is still too young, I bet five hundred gold coins, and this person will win two games at most!"
Hearing these discussions, Yang Xuan was slightly surprised, he didn't expect that there were still people here who gambled on this.
As if he had guessed Yang Xuan's thoughts, he listened to Lan Wan on the side and said: "Not everyone is qualified to be eligible to sit at the table, so most of the people who come here still make a fortune from this, of course, the most involved in the gambling fight is the qualification to sit down, and they need to win three games in a row." β
"I see!"
Yang Xuan nodded.
However, he was not interested in participating in such a thing, and as he spoke, he glanced around.
"Yang Xuan, why are you here!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice quietly reached Yang Xuan's ears.
"It's you!"
Yang Xuan looked for prestige, but a woman wearing a purple Qingyun Academy uniform appeared in front of him.
Although the uniform of Qingyun Academy is not gorgeous, but wearing this woman's body, it lacks the savage aura when Yang Xuan saw her at the beginning, and only looks heroic.
"Senior Sister Yuan!"
Yu Yang Xuan stared at the person who came together, Lan Wan exclaimed, and hurriedly stepped forward, isn't this woman who spoke Yuan Jingyi.
"Lan Wan, you're here too. β
Glancing at Yang Xuan and Lan Wan, for some reason, Yuan Jingyi only felt a touch in her eyes, and couldn't help but think of what happened in the Half Moon Valley that day.
"Senior sister, don't ask so much, do you know Su Xuemei's whereabouts?" Lan Wan asked impatiently.
"You're here for Su Li'er?"
Yuan Jingyi's eyes narrowed, and then she shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't help you with this matter." β
Hearing this, Yang Xuan's brows furrowed, and he asked, "What do you mean that you can't help us, I don't expect you to help me at all, you just say, Li'er is not here." β
"I'm sorry, I don't have anything to say!" Yuan Jingyi turned around.
"Stop!"
Yang Xuan snorted coldly, and was about to step forward to stop her and ask her clearly, but Lan Wan grabbed Yang Xuan's arm and said, "Yang Xuan, don't be angry, and with Senior Sister's character, even if you kill her, she won't tell you." β
Hearing Lan Wan say this, Yuan Jingyi snorted lightly: "Yang Xuan, for the sake of you helping me, I will give you a piece of advice, this is not the place you should come, while no one is discovered, it is too late to leave now!"
"You!"
Yang Xuan subconsciously clenched his fists, but quickly let go, just like he said just now, he didn't expect this woman to help him.
"Since you don't help, then I'll come by myself!" Yang Xuan said.
"What do you mean by that?" Yuan Jingyi's brows furrowed suddenly.
Yang Xuan didn't answer, just glanced at her lightly, and then turned his gaze and swept towards the fighting platform not far away.
At this moment, on the martial arts platform, Liu Hong of the Jade Tiger Academy was fighting a martial artist who was about the same age as him.
Suddenly, a trance flashed in Yuan Jingyi's heart, and she hurriedly looked at Yang Xuan and said, "Do you want to participate in the Dragon Gate Banquet Competition!"
"Not bad!"
Yang Xuan bowed his head indifferently.
Since Li Xuanji wants to show his noble identity in front of Su Li'er at this opportunity, as long as he can enter the Dragon Gate Banquet, wouldn't he be able to see his fiancΓ©e directly?
"I've seen a lot of stupid guys, but it's the first time I've seen such a stupid guy as you, Yang Xuan, don't think that you can act recklessly because you have recovered your martial soul!"
With a sneer in her mouth, Yuan Jingyi continued: "Those who participate in the Dragon Gate Banquet competition are at least in the martial arts realm, and if you go to the martial arts realm, you will only bring humiliation on yourself!"
