Chapter 428: Li Zhen's Request
Ye Xingchen learned from Li Zhen that the disciples of the four top forces who participated in this competition were only less than thirty combined, which made him a little surprised, he had already seen the charm of the cicada-clothed princess, not to mention her appearance and temperament, just because of the identity of the imperial concubine.
Originally, he thought that Lu Changqing of the Spirit Wind Sword Domain would also come, and it would definitely be impossible for the cold and rebellious senior brother in the pavilion to come if he was obsessed with Senior Sister Gu, and as for Qing Yuan of the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, she was originally a woman, and it was even more impossible for her to come.
In this way, the only one who can be regarded as a super genius among the comers is only the young master of the Dead Sword God Sect, Xing Hankong, and in addition, although the strength of Nayuan Heavenly Wolf, Ji Chengxiao, Fang Qi and others is not weak, it is far from the point where he pays attention to it.
"Well, it seems that the next battle will be extremely easy, I knew that I would bring the bed too, and I can sleep well before my turn next time. ”
Ye Xingchen muttered secretly, and then looked up at the huge martial arts arena, and found that the second round of battle had begun at this time, and the two sides had entered a tense and exciting battle.
"Senior Brother Li, do you know these two people?"
Li Zhen nodded and explained: "One is Deng Luo of the Deng family, and it is said that his strength has also stepped into the peak of the Adversity Realm. The other is a disciple of Xuantianmen, who seems to be called Xuantianyang, and his strength should be almost the same as him. Xuantianmen and the Deng family have a good relationship with my Li family, although there has been no recent contact, but there is still friendship. ”
Ye Xingchen sighed lightly, these so-called geniuses are also good-looking, but in fact, that's it, anyway, none of them can catch their own punches.
Seeing that he didn't care about it, Li Zhen couldn't help but smile and asked, "Is Senior Brother Ye too bored?"
"Pretty much. ”
"Also, with your strength, it doesn't take much effort to get out of these hundred contestants, and I ......"
Speaking of this, Li Zhen lowered his head, and a trace of loss flashed inexplicably in his eyes, he was carrying the fate of his family, but he still had no ability to do it after all.
"What's wrong?" asked Nightstar, as if sensing something was wrong.
Li Zhen shook his head, and after being silent for a while, he suddenly said with a serious face: "Senior Brother Ye, you ...... Can you do me a favor. ”
"What?" Night Star was puzzled.
Li Zhen gritted his teeth, and seemed to have made up his mind: "If you can do it, you must win the first place in the martial arts competition for your senior brother, at least you can't lose to that Lu Guang, okay?"
"Lu Guang, who is that?" Ye Xingchen asked.
Li Zhen explained: "Lu Guang is the second son of the Lu family and the younger brother of Lu Pu. Not long after I left the Sword Star Divine Pavilion, the emperor gave Princess Cicada Yi to Na Lu Pu, and then Lu Pu died suddenly, and the emperor gave Princess Cicada Yi to his younger brother Lu Guang. ”
"Who knew that Princess Cicada Yi was unwilling to marry, and after the commotion left and right, the emperor had to marry her off, so there was today's martial arts competition. At first, the emperor wanted to choose one of the two families to marry, one was their Lu family, and the other was my Li family. ”
After listening to Li Zhen's explanation, Ye Xingchen remembered that behind this martial arts competition was a war between the two great families in the Imperial City, and if one side could win, then the other party would lose its foothold in the Imperial City.
Originally, he didn't plan to participate, but Li Zhen was his senior brother after all, and it was not too difficult to help him.
Alas, who makes others value their friends very much?
"Okay. Ye Xingchen agreed, and seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked: "By the way, how did I hear that Lu Guang is not too strong, and his strength doesn't even seem to be in the middle of the Adverse Sea Realm, compared to his brother Lu Pu, it's very different, isn't this kind of goods solved by any person?"
I didn't think about it, but Li Zhen shook his head: "His strength is indeed not very good, but after all, he and I are the emperor's internal people, and the Lu family has taken out their old bottom in order to let Lu Guang win the first place, and those pills alone are enough for him to match the masters at the peak of the Adverse Sea Realm." ”
Hearing this, Ye Xingchen couldn't help but be stunned, thinking in his heart that this Lu family can, it's really cunning enough, and he can make him a super genius and get the cicada-clothed princess in a short time, and then he can slowly do something to the Li family, and then the Li family is afraid that they will not even have the qualifications to struggle.
In the middle of the ring, he remembered something again, and said in confusion: "Didn't you say that you are not allowed to use pills in the martial arts competition?
Li Zhen smiled bitterly, "We naturally know this, but my Li and Lu families are the emperor's right-hand men in the imperial city, and there will be people on the emperor's side, even if others see it, they will never dare to say it." ”
"Damn!" Ye Xingchen couldn't help but scold angrily, what the hell, I thought that the conference held by the emperor himself could be fair and just in the true sense, but he was told that this was the case?
"Princess Cicada Yi was originally the emperor to marry one of the two families, and it is not unreasonable to do so, but it is indeed a little unfair to you contestants. Li Zhen said with some shame.
Ye Xingchen was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled: "It's okay, what's this, even if you take a few mouthfuls of medicine, it is definitely not my opponent, Senior Brother Li, you can rest assured." ”
With his current strength, there are no more than five fingers that can pose a threat in the entire conference, and among the contestants, only the young master of the dead sword, Xing Hankong, can touch it, and he doesn't care about the others at all.
Hearing him say this, Li Zhen was immediately overjoyed, "Thank you, Senior Brother Ye, I know that I don't have the ability to get the approval of Princess Cicada, but as long as he can't do it, then our Li family will be fine, at least not in a short time." ”
Ye Xingchen nodded, anyway, this is not a big deal for him, as for the next battle, it is completely none of his business, sleep peacefully and wait for the next one.
Thinking of this, he simply lay down and no longer paid attention to the battle in the venue, and Li Zhen didn't say anything, he believed that with the strength of Night Xingchen, among the hundred people, only the young master of the Dead Sword God Sect, Xing Hankong, could threaten him, and this kind of strength could indeed disdain everything on the field.
.......................................
At noon, the sun is still falling, as if it can warm people's hearts, making the creatures of this world more vivid and interesting.
At this moment, the conference has been held for 14 games, and the seven people who have been eliminated are also seven people who have been promoted. Of course, the most outstanding performance among these seven people is undoubtedly Ye Xingchen, even the Sword Peak Emperor in the dragon sedan chair has his eyes in his direction from time to time, but the former has been sleeping soundly......
In the fourteen battles before this, the cicada-clothed princess had never said a word, and it was obvious that she was not very satisfied with the performance of those people. But this is also natural, after all, the talent of Princess Cicada is called the first person among the young generation of the empire, and among the contestants present who can make her speak, there is only one person in the Dead Sword Young Master Xing Hankong, right?
Soon, a new round of lists was also listed, and unexpectedly, this time the list was listed, which immediately attracted the attention of many people, because the two names listed on the list were the Yuan Tianwolf of the Huangyuan Pavilion and the young city lord of Beiliang City, Beimu Tianyang!
Huangyuan Pavilion is the first-line strength of the empire, and its background is not much worse than the Northern Absolute Palace under the four top forces, and this guy named Yuantian Wolf is also a complete freak, he has been full of divine power since he was a child, if he only talks about physical confrontation, few people present can be his opponent.
And his opponent Beimu Tianyang is also not a simple role, as we all know, Beimu Wuyan, the city lord of Beiliang City, loves the people like a son, and is deeply loved by the people, and his strength is not weak at all, and he has always been loyal to the empire, how can Beimu Tianyang, who is his son, be worse?
As the so-called tiger father has no dog son, the junior who was praised by the emperor back then looked at the entire empire, and there was only this son of the Beimu City Lord.
The names of these two people quickly aroused everyone's interest, and even Ye Xingchen, who had been asleep, was woken up by the audience, but fortunately, he remembered that it was not the Sword Star Divine Pavilion, otherwise he would have scolded him......
"Senior Brother Night, are you awake?" Li Zhen on the side said with some surprise.
Ye Xingchen nodded in a daze, turned his face sideways to find that Niu Long and the others were also walking towards him, and the bald senior brother laughed and said: "This is a bit interesting, I saw my old cow before I want to sleep, or Senior Brother Ye, you are bold enough, just sleep when you say sleep." ”
"Ahem...... It's boring, and there's nothing to do but sleep. Night Star laughed dryly.
Niu Long sat next to him and said with a smile: "Don't sleep, this scene is a good show." ”
"How?" Night Star wondered.
Previously, he was only woken up and did not look at the names on the list, so naturally he did not know who the person was talking about in this place.
Before Niu Long could speak, Tang Taixuan on the other side had already explained: "One of the two people in this scene is the Yuan Tianwolf of the Huangyuan Pavilion, and the other is the young city lord of Beiliang City, Beimu Tianyang, you should know." ”
"Beimu Tianyang?"
Hearing this familiar name, Ye Xingchen couldn't help but be stunned, in addition to these senior brothers, he was probably the most familiar with himself in the entire martial arts recruitment conference.
As for that Yuan Tian Wolf, he had also felt a little shocked before, so he still knew it. It is said that that guy can tear the meteorite beast by hand at the age of ten, which really scared him, this kind of innate divine power can indeed be called a genius of the heavens.
He fought with Beimu Tianyang...... This is a bit interesting, in his opinion, the strength of these two people should be around the peak of the Adverse Sea Realm, and their identity backgrounds are almost the same, not to mention, who wins and who loses is really uncertain.
"How's that? don't plan to watch it for a while?" the bald bulldragon quipped.
Ye Xingchen grinned, and then cast his eyes on the huge arena, putting on an interested look: "Look, naturally I want to see it, there is finally one that can be seen, how can I miss it?"
