Chapter Twenty-Eight: Additional Competitions

However, Pei Xingjian and Cen Changqian discussed for a while, and after inquiring about other officials around them, their opinions were still unified, and they agreed to give Liu Yi a full score of judgment!

When the score came out, there was thunderous cheers on the field, and the hall was full of applause, Pei Xingjian saw that the emperor and queen in the distance did not say anything about this judgment, and he was relieved.

After the end of the cavalry performance, Liu Yi also played a few sets of marksmanship, although the Liu family's marksmanship was not very outstanding, but Liu Yi improved the marksmanship slightly during this time, using the anatomy of the human body, the original speed of the gun was accelerated a lot, so that the moves changed quickly when dancing the gun, and it also made the upper strength, and the marksmanship routine made in the final was also very different from the first two days in the preliminaries.

The speed of the gun was too fast, so that he couldn't see the moves, and he danced down, dazzling the eyes of many people on the field.

Such a fast marksmanship, coupled with Liu Yi's extraordinary riding skills, has been recognized by most people on the field, and the applause continues, Liu Yi is also in the applause of the audience, with a very beautiful dismount action, spinning a few times, the body is raised, and then lightly falling to the ground, standing firmly, and bowing to all sides.

The action of dismounting like this also stunned many people, and the applause sounded again.

Then Liu Yi walked to the referee's seat, Cen Changqian, the squire of the Ministry of War, and Pei Xingjian asked Liu Yi about some things about the art of war, and Liu Yi was not very good at the marching formation in the era of cold weapons, but the modern military thinking of later generations still had a great influence on Liu Yi, and he also told a large set of things about the art of war, such as rapid maneuvering, surprise, unpreparedness for attacking the enemy, and smashing into key points, which made Cen Changqian stunned, so that Pei Xingjian was also full of praise.

In the end, Liu Yi's comprehensive score came out, and all the players in front of him had never achieved good results, and in the applause of everyone on the field, Liu Yi saluted very chic and returned to the queue of players who had finished the game.

Most of the eyes of the audience were looking at Liu Yi, a handsome and slightly immature young man with a calm and sophisticated face that was not commensurate with his age, and many people were guessing who this young man was, who his son was, and why he had such skills, but it was not known before.

With all the competitors over, most of them agreed that it was time to announce the final results.

According to the rules announced in advance, this martial arts competition is not the same as the imperial examination held in the spring, where the results are released a few days after the end of the examination and the list is posted in the South Courtyard of the Ministry of Rites, but the rankings are announced directly after the competition.

In other words, after the competition, you can immediately know who is the winner of the first martial arts competition in Datang, and the other samurai on the list can basically know.

It's just that who will announce the winner of the martial arts competition, who is an official of the ministry? Military Department Officer? Or is it His Majesty the Emperor today? Most people don't know yet, but almost everyone thinks that Liu Yi'an, the last one to compete in the competition, must have won the first place in the first martial arts competition of the Tang Dynasty.

Pei Xingjian, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, and Cen Changqian, the waiter of the Ministry of War, who presided over the event, were quickly sorting out the information, the game was over, and according to the order of the court in advance, the final result was announced by them. The results of each contestant have come out, and it is relatively simple to evaluate the rankings according to the results. Pei Xingjian and Cen Changqian are also ready to sort out the list, and immediately announce it to all the viewers and contestants present, and then present it to the emperor and empress.

Just as everyone was waiting for the announcement of the results, a person who looked like a eunuch ran over quickly from where the emperor and empress were sitting, and whispered a few words to Pei Xingjian and Cen Changqian, who were sitting on the referee's seat.

The eunuch ran to Pei Xingjian and Cen Changqian's side, and after saying a few words, Pei Xingjian and Cen Changqian also discussed again, and after a while, the two of them nodded their heads, as if they agreed with something.

This made Liu Yi's heart tighten suddenly, the rules formulated in this martial arts competition are lacking, and they cannot fully reflect the level of a player, if they are just scored according to the rules, they have similar results in good performance, and it is difficult to make a decision, that is for sure, I don't know if Huan Yanfan and Jinghui were recommended by the prime minister of the dynasty, and this "champion" will be awarded to one of them.

This is something Liu Yi didn't expect beforehand, and he doesn't know how Pei Xingjian and the others will announce it next.

In the eyes of everyone, Cen Changqian, the squire of the military department, stood up and signaled the audience to be quiet.

All the people watching on the field immediately fell silent, and Cen Changqian's angry voice sounded, "By the will of His Majesty the Emperor and the Queen of Heaven, the best results in the competition just now, Huan Yanfan, Jinghui, and Liu Yi'an need to add a few more games to determine the final ranking!" ”

The crowd cheered again, and that's exactly what most people were hoping for, and the three best achievers would compete against each other to put on a better performance to keep them entertained.

And Liu Yi was also relieved, fortunately the organizers did not sell favors, otherwise they would really have to go back with regrets.

"Add the first item of the competition, foot shooting, 100 steps, five arrows per person, and the one with the most targets wins!" Cen Changqian continued to announce the items of the competition, and deliberately bit the words "the one with the most targets wins".

The distance of 100 steps is a bit difficult for ordinary players, but most of the people on the field understand that for these three samurai with the best results, a 100-step step shooting is really nothing, and it may not be better than anyone's results.

It's just that this competition is a three-person simultaneous shooting, and Liu Yi seems to understand the reason why Pei Xingjian and others have decided so much.

The officers of the military department quickly demarcated a firing zone of 100 paces, and the three new targets were re-arranged, only a few paces apart.

Liu Yi, Huan Yanfan, and Jinghui each stood still in the shooting area, and the three of them also looked at each other a few times, Liu Yi saw a trace of admiration in the eyes of the other two, and some dissatisfaction, but Liu Yi just returned a faint smile and did not show anything.

With the command of the military officials in the hands of the command of the flag waved, the three of them almost at the same time picked up the arrow and raised the bow, almost full of strings, and then slowly put some more, Liu Yi shot the first arrow, and then Jing Hui and Huan Yanfan also shot out successively, in the applause of the spectators on the field, the arrows of the three hit the bull's-eye in turn.

This result was not a surprise to anyone, and the three of them still pulled the bowstring and shot the second arrow in their hand, and then the third, and all three of them also hit the bull's eye.

The fourth arrow, Huan Yanfan and Jinghui shot first, also hit the bull's-eye, but the unexpected situation appeared, the arrow in Liu Yi's hand was not shot for a long time, in the other two puzzled, Liu Yi aimed and aimed, but still put down, Huan Yanfan and Jinghui were even more puzzled, but they still shot the last arrow.

Most people think that the three of them will be full of results, and the decision to rank will depend on the following performances, who knows that Liu Yi quickly raised his bow after Huan Yanfan and Jinghui finished shooting, and shot two arrows in succession, but the shooting direction of these two arrows was unexpected to everyone, that was to Ben Huan Yanfan and Jinghui and the arrow target...
