Chapter 112: Eve
Royal Capital Square.
The largest square in the Midtown area, and likewise, one of the largest squares in the entire royal capital, is located in front of the royal palace.
The whole square, framed beautifully, every floor, is paved with smooth and flat marble slabs, all kinds of statues carved from precious white jade, dotted in every place of the square, the gardener carefully maintained trees, flowers, different forms, full of artistic color, and the most eye-catching, or on the side of the royal capital square, a huge open-air platform like a port.
At this moment, on the side of this platform, there are already many middle-aged men who are obviously dressed in aristocratic clothes waiting there, and below, there are teams of elite swordsmen standing around the platform, maintaining the order of the platform.
There are less than a thousand people in this Praetorian Guard, but these thousand people, each of them, have at least the strength of a formal swordsman, and every squad leader and squadron leader is a high-level swordsman or even a great swordsman, a Praetorian Guard commander, a deputy commander, and a master of swordsmanship.
They are the strongest guards of the royal family, equivalent to the royal army, representing the face of the royal family.
Looking closely at the top of the platform, a man who looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old, surrounded by all kinds of aristocratic stars and moons, highlighting his identity, it was not difficult to guess that this person, nine times out of ten, was the target of these royal guards.
"Marquis Shen Mingxin, haven't you arrived yet? β
The richly dressed man with an extraordinary aura asked, his eyes looking at the sky from time to time.
"Hehe, Your Royal Highness the Prince doesn't need to worry, according to the news we have received, the Wind God Ship of the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy has entered the scope of our Taixuan Kingdom, and it will soon appear in the royal capital, and it won't take much time. β
The person who replied was a middle-aged man in his forties.
If there are some people who know the power of the royal capital very well, they can identify it here, this person is the person in charge of the famous large family in the kingdom today, the head of the Shen family, the patriarch of the Shen family, Shen Mingxin.
Shen Chongyang, who has a high reputation among the Xuanzhong senior swordsman students, is a member of the Shen family.
The man known as His Royal Highness the Prince nodded, glancing blankly in the other direction of the square not far away......
There, it also attracted the attention and interest of many young warriors and swordsmen.
"If Your Highness thinks that those people have affected our reception of the examiners of the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy, I might as well have someone order them to move somewhere. β
"That's not necessary, the Scorching Sun Chamber of Commerce is also one of the largest chambers of commerce in our Taixuan Kingdom, even if it has a great influence in the entire ASEAN, as the young owner of the Chamber of Commerce, Lie Dongyang wants to occupy an area in the square and compete with people, we still have to give this face. β
Shen Mingxin chuckled: "His Royal Highness the prince is tolerant of all rivers and rivers, and he is broad-minded, I admire him." β
He just said what he meant, with the deep-rooted power of the Scorching Sun Chamber of Commerce in the Taixuan Kingdom, unless His Majesty the King personally ordered it, he would like to make a move against the Scorching Sun Chamber of Commerce as a marquis, and it was really not enough.
"Lie Dongyang is our Taixuan No. 1 swordsman, and he is going to compete with a newly promoted genius swordsman in our Taixuan Kingdom, just this scene can make the assessment personnel of the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy take a look, so that they can understand that our Taixuan Kingdom is at its peak sword style, and the quota for hiring genius swordsmen in the Taixuan Kingdom in the future can be a little more relaxed. β
"His Royal Highness the Prince is very true. β
Shen Mingxin responded.
There was some small friction between the Shen family and the Scorching Sun Chamber of Commerce, but they didn't dare to make a big fuss about this kind of matter that was related to the face of the kingdom.
......
At this moment, on the other side of the square, the dueling platform that Lie Dongyang needed had been set up in less than an hour under the auspices of the Scorching Sun Chamber of Commerce, and Lie Dongyang, one of the protagonists of today's duel, had already stood on the duel field, quietly waiting for the arrival of the royal court.
On the side of the dueling platform, all the young swordsmen, nobles, and swordsmen who were interested in this battle gathered under this dueling platform.
These people have different identities, some are just some civilian swordsmen who yearn for the realm of swordsmanship, some are knights who have established meritorious deeds on the battlefield, and some are those who have achieved aristocratic swordsmanship masters, in addition to some younger generations of aristocratic families.
Among these people, many of them were heroes of the royal capital, and some were genius swordsmen who had come from all over the kingdom to participate in the election of the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy, and some of them could be recognized even if the royal court was here.
Vice President of Beige, Vice President Dong Qi, Shen Chongyang, Young Master of the Shen Family, and his follower Fang Zhan, Hai Ming, the head of the Hai family's guards, Hai Nuo, the current head of the Hai family, Hai Lin'er, the palm daughter of Count Hai Nuo, Ye Congyun, the fourth disciple of Dean Shang Ming, Jing Feng, the fifth disciple Jing Feng, Tang Zheng, the baron of the kingdom, Chang Dingfeng, one of the three small famous swords, Fang Qianhua, the royal swordsman, Zhou Tianchi, Fang Qianhua's disciple, and Lynch, who was hidden in the crowd and was not with Fang Qianhua......
As Lie Dongyang's fiancΓ©e, it is naturally reasonable for Hai Lin'er to be present, as for Count Hainault's personal appearance, in addition to giving Lie Dongyang some support to express his attitude, he also hopes to see if he can contact the examiners of the Divine Swordsman Academy nearby.
As for Vice Dean Beige and the others, they were going to recommend the genius swordsmen selected from the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsman Academy to the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy, but they did not have the qualifications to meet those legendary swordsmen of the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy, and now they could only wait at the edge of the square, and they were also watching the duel in front of them that was said to be the battle for the name of the first swordsman in Taixuan.
In short, this day, the duel between Lie Dongyang and Wang Ting has not officially begun, and the Fengshen ship of the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy has not officially arrived, and the entire royal capital square has been completely lively, and all the great gods who are rarely seen on weekdays have appeared, looking forward to these two grand events for the swordsmanship world of the entire Taixuan Kingdom.
......
"Hasn't that royal court shown up yet? β
In the distance of the square, in a carriage that occupies an excellent position, an old man asked.
"Master, at present, that royal court is still in the courtyard of the Tomorrow Hotel, and has not yet appeared, according to the information we have received, that royal court seems to have practiced a certain swordsmanship and gone mad, and it has not moved two days ago, I think, they are all dead......
In the carriage, a man slightly older than Lie Dongyang replied respectfully.
"An opponent who can make your junior brother treat him so cautiously is unlikely to die easily. β
The old man said lightly, and his words and deeds revealed a majesty that was not angry and self-assured.
This old man is none other than the first sword master of the entire Taixuan Kingdom, the first great sword master, and similarly, the first master of the entire Taixuan Kingdom, known as the closest swordsmanship master to the Sword Saint - Zhou Yan.
"What the master said is good, but that royal court is less than eighteen years old after all, too young......"
"Dongyang told me that this person is young, for a genius like them, the time of enlightenment is far beyond your imagination, and age is no problem for them at all. β
The old man said, with a divine light in his eyes: "Let's go and investigate again, see what kind of swordsmanship this genius swordsman has cultivated, this battle has attracted the attention of too many people, and there is no room for any mistakes." β
"Yes, Master. β
