As soon as the horn sounded into the sky, the whole audience was cleaned, and Li Xiantong and the others stopped chatting and hurriedly returned to their positions.

"Your Majesty the Emperor has arrived!"

All the soldiers hugged their fists and shouted long live, and the momentum can be described as majestic and shocking.

Li Zhi, who had inconvenient legs and feet, sat on a "foot guard" carried by four eunuchs into the viewing seat, sat down on the seat and raised his hand, "All soldiers are exempt from courtesy." ”

"Your Majesty!"

The shouting of the heaven-shaking military power is extremely spectacular, and these sergeants are all Li Zhi's descendants.

After that, the Queen of Heaven and Princess Taiping appeared one after another, sitting on the left side of Li Zhi, and Shangguan Wan'er waited from the side. Li Xiaoyi, the general of Fengchenwei on the left, sat first on the right, and Pei Xingjian sat under Li Xiaoyi.

Xue Shao glanced at Li Xiaoyi twice, he was about fifty years old about the same age as Li Zhi, and his spirit was very vigorous. Although Li Xiaoyi's official rank is not as good as Pei Xingjian's, his title is noble enough as a county duke, and he is still Li Zhi's uncle in terms of seniority. Therefore, his seat is higher than Pei Xingjian.

At this time, Zhonglang walked Li Xiantong to the viewing seat, and visited Li Zhi and Wu Zetian with Zhou Jitong. Li Xiantong also visited Li Xiaoyi as a gift of his juniors.

Xue Shao asked, "Lu Siyi, is Li Xiantong a member of the royal family?" ”

"Li Xiantong's great-grandfather and General Li Xiaoyi are brothers, and they are one of the twenty-four heroes of the Lingyan Pavilion in the pacification of Jiangnan, Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian!" Lu Siyi whispered, "Although Li Xiantong is thirty years old, he is very young in the clan, so he has to call the emperor grandpa!" ”

Xue Shao couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, that doesn't mean that my deceased mother has to be called grandma, I am also Li Xiantong's uncle!

As soon as the drum sounded, more than 100 armored warriors with swords and shields in their hands went up to the podium and lined up in formation, and the palace music of "King Qin's Breaking Array Music" played, and these people danced the martial arts military dance.

The sergeants were very intoxicated and enjoyed, but Xue Shao was a little speechless, he couldn't imagine that there would be so many gimmicks in a martial arts meeting!

A sergeant ran over and said that Xue Shao was going to the battle seat to participate.

As soon as Xue Shao moved, he felt that countless people were staring at him. These sights almost turned into something of quality, and it seemed very obvious to him.

Seeing Xue Shao trotting towards the side of the viewing seat, Princess Taiping, who was already in an unhappy mood, became a little anxious and sad, glanced at Zhou Jitong who was standing not far away with hatred, and snorted maliciously.

Wu Zetian turned his head and glanced at Princess Taiping, who immediately began to look left and right, as if she had never done anything.

"Minister Xue Shao, see His Majesty the Emperor, see the Queen of Heaven!" Xue Shao stepped forward to bow. The two saints are in the same day, the sun and the moon shine together, and the formal occasion is not enough to pay homage to the emperor alone.

"No courtesy." It was not Li Zhi but Wu Zetian who spoke, she was quite calm, and said, "Xue Shao, after the ban on countermeasures that day, this palace asked you if you could be qualified for the position of Qianniu Preparation, and you said in person." Today, you will prove it to this palace in public to see if you are really competent. ”

"Yes." Xue Shao hugged his fists and bowed, not saying much.

"Okay-" Wu Zetian dragged out his voice, "Today, whether you win or lose, you have to show your manly spirit, don't let this palace down!" ”

"Yes."

Li Zhi raised his hand lightly and said, "Zhou Jitong, come here." ”

Zhou Jitong walked over and stood side by side with Xue Shao clasping his fists.

"Qianniu's martial arts has always been a grand event in the palace, and it is also an example of my Tang army's martial arts." Li Zhi said, "I hope that both of you can do your best without any scruples, but you are not allowed to mix any personal grievances to vent your anger. I specially invited General Li and Pei Shangshu to supervise and judge. In short, everything has to be fair. Not only can it not hurt the harmony, but also to achieve the intention of Xuanhong Wude! ”

"Yes." Xue Shao and Zhou Jitong hugged their fists together and promised.

Zhou Jitong also untied the Qianniu Imperial Knife on his waist and presented it to Li Zhi.

Princess Taiping pursed her lips on the side, and said in her heart that her father was clearly helping Zhou Jitong, and she was afraid that he would have scruples and would not dare to fight with all her might!

"I will accept this knife first, you all go and change your clothes and prepare!"

Xue Shao glanced at Zhou Jitong, Zhou Jitong also glanced at Xue Shao, and the two of them turned around at the same time and walked to the side of the military tent.

Lu Siyi, Pan Yi and Tang Zhen went to the tent to wait for Xue Shao to change his clothes and cheer him on. Xue Shao felt that this scene was like a boxer about to fight.

However, boxers lose at most some prize money and honors; If he is defeated today, there will be too many things to lose, especially in front of Li Zhi, Wu Zetian, Princess Taiping and Pei Xingjian.

The dance music and military music outside the tent were majestic and exciting, and the atmosphere at the scene was very magnificent and intense. The blood in Xue Shao's heart seemed to be slowly boiling, a pair of fists were clenched to the bone, but his expression was becoming more and more silent, and it could even be called cold and solemn.

Lu Siyi and the others were a little afraid to squeak.

Xue Shao can imagine that Zhou Jitong should be in a similar situation to him now, and he may even be more eager to win - because he is a Zhonglang general, and he takes the initiative to accept the challenge of his subordinates, then he will be even more unable to lose!

The atmosphere was so intense, Tang Zhen and Pan Yi, the two young recruits, were obviously enthusiastic.

"General, you, you'll be ...... for a while" Tang Zhen didn't seem to be able to say a word, he was a little anxious, and waved his fist fiercely, "Hit hard!" ”

"That's it, hit hard!" Pan Yi followed and said, "No one has ever dared to challenge Zhou Zhonglang, General Xue, you are the first!" ”

"The general is an iron man! What a man! ”

"I—We admire!"

Lu Siyi blinked in astonishment, "Well, the last general also admires!" ”

"Okay." Xue Shao smiled, Tang Zhen and Pan Yi were obviously young and innocent and hot-blooded, Lu Siyi, a small officer, must have been polished a lot, and his personality was much more mature.

The marching dance is over.

"Two Thousand Bull Warriors are invited to appear!"

Xue Shao took a deep breath and stepped out of the tent.

The two or three thousand sergeants in the audience let out an earth-shattering roar, and Xue Shao was stunned for a moment, this scene is really big!

Zhou Jitong walked out of another tent, his expression was relaxed and very confident, and he strode to the podium, he stood proudly with his hands cut off his back and his feet wide open and waited for Xue Shao.

Xue Shao walked up to him and stood still, hugged his fists, and didn't speak.

Zhou Jitong casually hugged his fist in return, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly and smiled coldly.

Li Xiaoyi walked up to the stage, looked at the two of them left and right, and said, "Xue Shao is new, I'll talk about the rules." ”

"It's also simple - you are not allowed to use any blade weapons, and you are not allowed to attack the opponent's lower yin. Other than that, everything is cheaply engaged. Until the other party admits defeat, or Ben will judge one side with Pei Shangshu to lose, the competition will end. ”

Li Xiaoyi looked at Xue Shao, "Xue Shao, do you understand?" ”

"Understood." Xue Shao clenched his fists.

Li Xiaoyi nodded, "The overcomer, Your Majesty will personally give you a thousand oxen and a royal sword, and another reward; The loser will be fined three glasses of white water. Do you both understand? ”

"Understood!"

Li Xiaoyi turned around and walked off the stage, "When Ben landed his feet under the stage, you can start." Listen to me to stop, all actions must stop! ”

After that, Li Xiaoyi walked step by step towards the podium.

Xue Shao slowly clenched his fists, staring at Zhou Jitong with slightly narrowed eyes, thinking to himself, the most powerful weapon of a man should be his brain!

Zhou Jitong is a bit underestimated, and he should be eager to win in the fastest time and in the most simple and crude way. His personality is very hot, of course, his strength is certainly not weak, it is not so easy for me to win, and it is a good way to provoke him.

When a person is angry, he is prone to make mistakes.

The dialogue between the strong fights to the death, and many times the comparison is not who is stronger and who does it more right, but who makes fewer mistakes!

Zhou Jitong obviously took a deep breath, his strong chest muscles bulged high, his fists and bones rattled, and the green tendons in his neck bulged. Look at it, like a tiger about to pounce!

The audience was silent, only hearing the wind passing through the banner hunting and flying, and two or three thousand pairs of eyes staring at Xue Shao and Zhou Jitong.

Princess Taiping clasped her hands on her chest, stared at the stage with wide eyes, and almost forgot to breathe.

In Zuo Fengchen's train, Li Xiantong and Cheng Boxian exchanged glances left and right, and they all showed gestures. Some put up three fingers, some made four-five-six-seven-eight gestures, and some raised one finger.

Everyone tacitly laughed strangely and was full of interest.

Only the old oilman in Zuo Fengchenwei's six products knew that they were betting that Zhou Jitong would be able to put Xue Shao down in a few rounds. The dealer is Li Xiantong, who has always been a good gambler, and he is nicknamed "Big Dealer"!

When Li Xiaoyi's heels left the steps, Xue Shao saw Zhou Jitong's eyes glaring and his body sank. At the same moment when Li Xiaoyi's heel landed on the ground, Zhou Jitong jumped up with a tiger pounce, and a fierce punch seemed to fall from the sky and hit Xue Shao's face directly!

"Ahh

Xue Shao lightly twisted his body to avoid this punch, and the moment he made a mistake, his backhand four fingers brushed on Zhou Jitong's face!

This action was quite hidden, except for Li Xiaoyi, who was standing very close, almost no one saw it.

The two staggered by, as if they had exchanged the positions they had stood before, Zhou Jitong felt that his face was a little hot, maybe he was scratched by his nails, and it was not easy to reach out and touch it, he was so angry that he was trembling all over, and his eyes were going to redden!

How dare you slap me!

Xue Shao stood calmly, his expression could be described as grim. used the hand that slapped him just now and hooked it at Zhou Jitong.

There was an uproar from the audience, it was too arrogant!

Zuo Fengchen's guards were even more stunned, and someone slapped him on the forehead, "Lost money!" ”

Zhou Jitong obviously couldn't stand such stimulation, so he strode up and kicked Xue Shao's waist ribs with one leg and swept through the thousands of troops.

Xue Shao could imagine how much strength his leg had, and it was impossible for him to resist it at all, so he took three steps back to avoid his edge.

Zhou Jitong twisted his body and chased after him with a series of whip legs.

Xue Shao took three more steps back, and the danger was everywhere!.
