Guan Ze flicked away the Heavenly Painting Halberd with his arms upward, and jumped backwards to the side of the weapon rack to take a spear. Pointing to the monks, "That's fair." As he spoke, he brandished his spear and rushed towards the monks.

The monks shouted loudly and jumped towards each other. "Bang!" The two weapons collided together. Guan Ze gritted his teeth and stared fiercely at the monk who was only a few inches in front of him.

"Huh...... Yes, I can rest assured of this strength, and I can hand over the rest to you with peace of mind. The monk suddenly smiled strangely.

"Than the general...... You what...... Meaning? Guan Ze looked at the monk in surprise, but what surprised him even more was that the monk suddenly screamed and jumped off the stage at the moment when the two of them were fighting. In the astonished eyes of everyone, the monk walked away without looking back. Only Guan Ze was left on the stage with a blank face.

This sudden reversal stunned everyone, and it took a moment to react, and the crowd began to erupt in applause and cheers for the victors.

On the old Xiangguo's private seat, he looked at Guan Ze, who was still standing stupidly on the stage, "Xiaoqiu...... You can't just lose like that, huh? Behind her, the princess let out a long sigh of relief. The corners of Lao Xiangguo's mouth showed a sly smile.

"Why haven't you seen the hill for the past few days?" Cheng Cheng lazily sat at the table on the edge of the seventh stage, which was the first row in front of the stage. She was surrounded by a group of palace guards.

"Well, yes, what about Uncle Bi?" The princess asked.

"Oh, back to Your Highness, my young marshal has been purchasing some items to bring back to Liaodong these days, and by the way, he has visited some old handsome old masters, so he came back relatively late these days." Li Mu replied respectfully.

"Don't explain, I think, Xiaoqiu is because he lost, and he has no face to see people." Cheng Cheng scoffed.

"Hehe......" The princess couldn't help but laugh when she heard what she said.

"Nonsense, my little handsome man is not that kind of person." Li Mu pouted and defended dissatisfiedly.

"Don't lose today." Cheng Cheng smiled and looked at Qi Feng, who had just stood up and was about to take the stage.

Qi Feng stretched his muscles and turned around and said to Cheng Cheng with a wicked smile: "Then if I win, you can kiss me again." With that, he laughed and stepped onto the stage.

"You want to." Cheng Cheng blushed and said angrily at his back.

"That's what I thought." Qi Feng didn't look back.

Qi Feng's opponent on the stage was Chowo Rein from Tibet, looking at the black tower-like strong man in front of him, Qi Feng tilted his head and looked at him with a light smile.

"Wow...... This man really looks like a tiger's back. Cheng Cheng looked at Qi Feng's opponent on the stage and said uneasily.

"This is Vozhein, which means tiger in Tibetan." The princess looked at the man appreciatively and said, "He is the eldest son of the fourth Tibetan king, Dagame Tso, and he is a popular candidate for the next throne of Tibet." ”

"Oh, it's the son of Zao." Cheng Cheng looked at the princess and said.

"Yes, in Tibet, he is a fierce general of the three armies, the year before last, the Sena Empire invaded Tibet, but Prince Vozhein defeated the invading army and ceded the land to sue for peace." The princess laughed.

"It turned out to be him." Cheng Cheng nodded.

At this time, there was a burst of cheers from the stage next door, and Sima Qiangren beat Yang Guang, the son of the opponent Xuanwu General Yang Yanqing, out of the stage without any suspense. He looked at the opponent who was vomiting blood and moaning in pain in the audience, "This kind of gentleman, relying on Lao Tzu's power and money to coerce and lure the opponent step by step to get to where he is today." didn't beat you to death, it can be regarded as looking at your old man's face. ”

"Wow! Brother Sima is so cool. Cheng Cheng looked at the cold Sima Qiangren on the stage next door and praised.

But the princess sighed worriedly. She doesn't like this Sima Qiangren, it's not the rumors about the affairs of the Sima family in the capital, nor is it Sima Qiangren's passionate pursuit of her when she was a child in the Prime Minister's Mansion. It's that I have a kind of inexplicable resistance to him in my heart. Maybe he also treats him as an older brother like Cheng Cheng.

As he was thinking about it, he heard a burst of joyful cheers, and a black shadow like a black tower fell down the stage. Qi Feng squatted on the side of the stage and looked at Cheng Cheng with a smile and said, "I won, I'll ...... later."

"Don't even think about it, I won't." Cheng Cheng grimaced at him and said with his little tongue out.

The top four were decided, Qi Feng, the king of Liao, Sima Qiangren, the son of the Duke of Dingguo, Shangguan Yunyi, the son of the king of Chu, and Guan Ze, the centurion of Yingtian.

Great Xia Imperial City, Taihe Palace.

"Your Majesty, the top four of the martial arts have been decided." Qi Guogong came up with a list of the top four.

"Huh...... This Shangguan Hao Yun also wants to rob the country with the widow. Emperor Xia sneered.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, Lao Xiangguo has made arrangements and will not let this Shangguan Yunyi survive the competition in three days." Qi Guogong said coldly.

"This Qi Feng ......," Emperor Xia asked viciously, looking at the name of the King of Liao.

"Huh...... Your Majesty, do you still need Your Majesty to worry about this? He's not going to make it through this event. Even if Your Majesty doesn't say it, the million taels of silver spent by the Duke of Dingguo, those examiners will not let this gentleman win over the son of the Duke of Dingguo. Besides, the minister and the old minister have already been arranged, and he will be the fish on the chopping board of Your Majesty by then. Qi Guogong said.

"Huh...... Fish on a chopping board. Xia Di smiled happily. At that time, the Great Liao Army and the Great Liao Prefecture will all be outnumbered. Hahaha......"

"Huh...... Your Majesty is wise, I think that in this way, my Great Xia can monopolize the foreign rivers and mountains of the Liao King. Qi Guogong also smiled.

It's night, the capital Liaowangfu.

After the dinner party to celebrate the first victory of King Liao, after seeing off Guan Ze and the princess, Cheng Cheng and Qi Feng silently walked out of the palace, and at the gate, Cheng Cheng stood on tiptoe with a red face and kissed Qi Feng's face gently, "That...... Play well...... Won...... Won...... I...... I...... Dislike. Cheng Cheng stomped his feet in shame and still didn't finish the following words. Why are there so many people missing from the palace? ”

"It's almost over, I'll let some people go back to Liaodong first." Qi Feng looked at Cheng Cheng with a happy face.

"yes, it's almost over." Cheng Cheng said in a low voice. "That...... Rest well, I'll go back. ”

"Well, you too." Qi Feng opened the carriage door and helped Cheng Cheng get into the carriage.

"I'm waiting, the moment you win......" Cheng Cheng stretched out his hands in the car window and stroked Qi Feng's handsome face with affection.

Final four matchup: Liao King Qi Feng - Sima Qiangren

Guan Ze - Shangguan Yunyi, the son of the king of Chu

Early in the morning, the capital, Xiangguo Mansion.

Sekizawa in flowers. After playing a set of Fuhu Gong in the garden, when I opened my eyes after finishing the gong and calming down, I saw Lao Xiangguo strolling towards with a smile, "What a group of Tiger and Tiger Fuhu Gong." The old minister praised.

"Ah, Lord Sangkoku." Guan Ze hurriedly saluted.
