The battle hall was too spacious and spacious, making Song Qi feel like an ant crawling into a big box, overwhelmed by the pressure. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

From the outside, the battle hall is airtight, but when you enter the inside, you find that the lighting inside is very good and bright. Because there is still a gap between the outer wall and the pillars inside, the sun's rays can naturally shine into the hall from that gap.

The battle hall was built using the space under the base of the high platform, supported by eight ten-zhang long pillars that were thick and thick for two people, and under each pillar stood two royal guards in full armor, and in the middle of the two pillars on the left, sat several old men wearing dark robes, who should be the imperial doctor responsible for treating the wounded.

Between the eight pillars formed an area of fifteen zhang long and ten zhang wide, covered with granite, smooth as a mirror, and in the middle of this fast area was a scarlet carpet of five zhang long and wide, which was supposed to be the area of battle.

The fat horse was already standing on the battle carpet, quietly waiting for Song Qi.

Between the two pillars on the north side of the battle hall, a table was built one foot above the ground, on which were placed five rosewood tables, and five people sat behind the tables. In the middle sat a middle-aged man in a purple robe who was about thirty-seven or eighteen years old, with a graceful bearing, a ruddy complexion, and a smile on the corner of his mouth, this is Emperor Liang's own uncle King Guangxi, although he is the emperor's uncle in terms of generation, but he is several years younger than Emperor Liang.

This King of Guangxi loves martial arts and does not like politics, and he is deeply favored by Emperor Liang. In the past, he had participated in many royal martial arts conferences, won the first place and won the second place, but this time because he was out of range, he retired to serve as the chief examiner of the royal martial arts conference.

On the left side of King Guangxi is Taifu Tuoba Gu, about fifty years old, sitting in a precarious position, with a solemn face, and there is no expression This Taifu is the chief teacher in charge of teaching the princes martial arts, and the martial arts are unfathomable. The young master on the right side of King Guangxi, Linghu Zong, is less than forty years old, with his hands on his arms, and his eyes often have a flash of essence, and he is also one of the royal martial arts teachers.

Of course, in addition to the chief teacher, each prince also has his own separate martial arts teacher.

To the right of the Young Fu Linghu Sect is the leader of the Imperial Forest Army. Buqian is thirty-five or sixteen years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, righteous and awe-inspiring, and there is a momentum that people dare not approach.

To the left of Taifu Tuoba Gu was the Tai Lieutenant Meng Ren, who was in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, with a smile on his face, and his brows furrowed slightly when he saw Song Qi enter the battle hall.

"Is this the first place in the arrow test, the winner of the red robe, and Song Qi, the concubine of Princess Yanfei who was named by the emperor as the princess of the world?" King Guangxi saw Song Qi enter the hall and asked Tuoba Gu happily.

"Probably." Tuoba Gu nodded slightly, and said expressionlessly.

"Ahem, I heard that he wants to get the first place in this martial arts conference?" Young Fu Ling Fox Sect coughed dryly and asked curiously.

"He did say that he wanted to win the first place in the martial arts conference. The first time he participated in the martial arts conference, he threatened to win the first place, and he only prepared for less than half a month, so how could those who had been preparing for three years be embarrassed? This Song Qi is really arrogant. ”

Meng Ren, who had been sitting without speaking, said with a smile.

"As far as I know, the words to take first place did not come from his own mouth." Bu Qian quickly glanced at Meng Ren and said indifferently.

"Whether he said it or not, being able to set his goal in the first place shows that he has ambition! I love it, haha! King Guangxi said happily. Every time King Guangxi participates in the martial arts conference, he will set his goal in the first place in advance, and he will not hide it from the outside world, so he will like such a person.

"I'm afraid that my eyes are high, and I am so ambitious! This time, the first sixty-four heroes, except for Song Qi, all sixty-three people have reached the Mahayana realm in martial arts, and only Song Qi is still in the Hinayana realm. I think he preached that he won the first place, purely for the sake of being famous, and it was a boring hype! Meng Ren said in a very sarcastic tone.

"Song Qi has already won the first place in the arrow test, and he can't be regarded as a master with a low eye." Bu Qian glanced at Meng Ren and corrected, "If he can use the repeater in battle, I think there is no suspense that he will win the first place." ”

"Unfortunately, you can't use a crossbow in a battle!" Meng Ren raised his hand and grabbed the beard on his chin and said proudly.

"This provision seems to have been added on the fly. Haven't you been able to use a bow and crossbow in the past few martial arts conferences? Bu Qian turned his head to look at Meng Ren, sneered and sneered, "It is not forbidden to use hidden weapons, but it is forbidden to use bows and crossbows, this rule seems very funny. Anyone with a little brain knows that this rule was specially formulated for Song Qi. ”

"The first place in the arrow test can enter the top sixty-four by two rounds, isn't it also something you temporarily proposed to add? Has there ever been such a thing in the previous martial arts conferences? Isn't this provision specifically for Song Qi's convenience? Meng Ren said-for-tat.

"Two, this is not a place for quarrels, let's watch the two fight." King Guangxi waved his hand to the left and right, and said unhappily.

"That's what the prince said." Meng Ren and Bu Qian clenched their fists together and said to King Guangxi.

"For the two opponents, please register with the examiner." In front of the platform stood eight gun-wielding Imperial Forest Army, one of whom spoke loudly to Song Qi and Fat Junma.

"Ma Pangtong, the seventh county of the King of Lanling County, has seen the chief examiner!" The fat horse saluted to the table.

"Nineteen horses Song Qi has seen the examiner." Song Qi walked to the middle of the carpet and bowed to the platform, and said loudly.

"Excuse me!" King Guangxi raised his hand and waved it down, and said with a smile.

The commander of the Imperial Forest Army, Bu Qian, stood up from his position, strode to the edge of the platform, looked down at Song Qi and Fat Junma with a sharp gaze, and loudly announced the rules: "In a battle, one side is defeated by the other side or is knocked out of the carpet area, and it is considered a loss." Did you hear you clearly? ”

"Hear me clearly!" Song Qi and Fat Junma replied loudly.

"Alright, the battle starts now!" With a swing of his sleeves, he returned to his position and sat down.

Song Qi thought to himself, there are still so many links in front of the battle, did Mu Huan end the battle as soon as he started fighting? Then he's just too fast.

Fat Junma carried a spear, turned to look at Song Qi, and grinned in a contemptuous tone: "Song Concubine, you will take a short sword to fight me?" That doesn't seem fair! If I win, people will think that I am bullying you based on my strengths. You'd better go get a longer weapon. ”

"So you don't want to win me!" Song Qi raised his chin, looked at Pang Junma with a downward attitude, and smiled indifferently. To be honest, even if he changed Song Qi to a three-zhang long gun now, he wouldn't change it. He wasn't afraid of those long weapons, his dragon scale sword could cut those long weapons into short weapons, and even into matchsticks, what else was he afraid of... To be continued.
