Chapter 17 Selection 3
Guan Jiyu knew that because of his own health, he had been in poor condition since he came to the camp, and he had almost rested after taking medicine, so he hurriedly seized the last two days, except for eating and sleeping, and the rest of the time he had been practicing the school field.
Finally, before the last assessment, the practice met the standards in her heart.
The rules of the last assessment are that the on-site draw is divided into pairs, that is, no one knows who their opponent will be before the draw is released.
After the elimination of the first two duels, there are only 14 people left standing on the field.
Zhi Shu looked at the remaining protΓ©gΓ©s next to him, and said to Jing Cun: "Good guy, look over there, there are a total of fourteen people, eight of them are from the camp of the Beixin family, and sure enough, the main force of our dynasty has to be in the Beixin." β
Jing Cun didn't agree with what he said, and said: "Strength doesn't depend on the number of people, although it is not easy for the four of us to enter the last game, but if you look at the team in the capital, the Tianyu Camp is alone, and the Lan Ze Camp has left Helan Ran." In all fairness, I think that the people in the Beijing team will be more brilliant this time, and if they are drawn, I am afraid it will be more difficult. β
Zheshu wiped the sword in his hand and said, "Wait a little longer, I don't believe it, only they can be brilliant, and our Nanqin's can't be brilliant?" β
"The final assessment will begin soon, please put your weapons in the bamboo basket on the west side of the school grounds." A soldier preached in the center.
Xiang Lincheng sat on the subjective platform from afar, unable to see what his expression was, only to see him talking to the soldiers beside him, and after a while, someone came to the scene to present the bamboo sticks that had been prepared.
His rules are also new, according to the fourteen people standing side by side on the field, starting from the first person, every other person will be drawn in turn, with the seven people in the queue as the representative.
The team was standing at will, and there was nothing wrong with Xiang Lincheng's arrangement, and there were no loopholes that were discussed as fair or not. He looked at the seven men in the column, and said to the attendants beside him, "Remove the signatures of the seven of them." β
The soldiers who presided over the field announced loudly when they heard the order: "Remove the Qingzi Battalion, Guan Jiyu of the Qingzi Battalion, Zheng Qi of the Northern Qi Battalion, Zheng Jun of the Northern Qi Battalion, He Yunshou of the Northern Qi Battalion, Li Xiao of the Northern Qi Battalion, and Helan Lang of the Lanze Battalion." β
The sticks in the bamboo tube were carefully selected and removed, and the remaining seven sticks were to be selected by them themselves. Whether the opponent against yourself is strong or weak is determined by the lottery in your hand.
Zhe Shu stretched out his hand to draw lots, and whispered to Guan Jiyu: "Great, Ah Yu, Helan Yan also came up to draw lots, which means that you and I will definitely not go to a showdown with him, just now I was worried that if it was me and him in a group, it would be difficult." β
He took the bamboo stick in his hand and rubbed it before removing his finger to look, but his face was not very clear.
"I'm smoking He Yunqi from the North Qi Camp! Tsk, I saw him beat his opponent to the ground in the last assessment, so let's have a comparison. Ah Yu, what about you? Who are you smoking? β
Zhe Shu leaned over to look at the bamboo stick in Guan Jiyu's hand, which was written - Zhou Baisong of the Northern Qiying Camp.
This opponent is not difficult for Guan Jiyu, and now she has fought against all the remaining people on the field, and she already knows what the opponent's strength is. But her face was full of nervousness at this time, and she couldn't help but look at Helan Yan, who was preparing to draw lots.
The four people who came up from the Beiqi camp hadn't smoked yet, and Helan looked at the bamboo sticks in the tube and took one at random.
She saw Helan Yan first glance at the lottery in her hand, and then looked at the people waiting in the field behind her. Following his line of sight, Guan Jiyu found that his eyes were looking straight at the easternmost side of the queue - where the Qingzi Camp was standing!
Then a playful smile flashed on Helan Yan's face, and he handed the sign in his hand to the soldier who accepted it.
Guan Jiyu was even more nervous in her heart, she didn't know what the expression on Helan Yan's face meant, and from the direction he looked over, she concluded that Helan Yan must have drawn someone from the Qingzi Camp.
So is Helan drawn Jiang Yingnian or Jingcun?
The soldiers who read out the grouping began to answer her doubts: "The grouping has been decided, a group: the Qingzi Battalion is different, and the North Qi Battalion He Yunqi is rising; Group 2: Zheng Jun of the North Qi Camp, Feng Tian of the Tianyu Camp; Three groups: Guan Jiyu of Qingziying, Zhou Baisong of North Qiying; Group 4: Li Xiao of North Qiying, Yushan of North Qiying. β
"These four groups, go to the south side of the school field to compete!"
The soldier who read out continued: "A group of the school field in the north: He Yunshou of the North Qi Battalion, Qi Yu of the North Qi Battalion; Group 2: Zheng Qi of the North Qi Camp, Jing Cun of the Qingzi Camp; Three groups: Lanzeying Helan, Qingziying Jiangyingnian. β
Lan Zeying Helan Lang to Qingzi Camp Jiang Yingnian.
When Guan Jiyu heard this, the big stone pressed on his heart finally fell.
This is her most ideal grouping, and it is difficult for others to say, but she concluded that Helan Yan's force must be above Jiang Yingnian. Jiang Yingnian will definitely be defeated by Helan Yan, and everything is finally realized one by one as she expected.
As the team leader took them out of the home stadium and on the way to the test venue, Guan Jiyu suddenly felt relaxed.
This is a battle-free duel, and what wins is the flexibility of the moves.
As the first group to play, the perennial training of the Qingzi Camp and his own outstanding talent have trained him to practice a solid kung fu, and it didn't take long for him to quickly end the duel.
The first victory made Guan Jiyu's heart more steady, her dodge was as smooth as a silky rain, and the attack was like a wild tornado, every move was in control, and the direction of the opponent's every attack, she seemed to know in advance, and easily dodged or resisted without effort.
She doesn't just win, she wins, she wins. The examiner in the prison watched while silently scoring each protΓ©gΓ© who participated in the duel.
At the end of the duel, Guan Jiyu said lightly: "Let's go, go over and see how Jingcun is doing?" β
At this time, only Jing Cun remained, and if he also won successfully, everything would be fine, and it would not be worth the hard work of their arrival in Beixin this time.
When Guan Jiyu and Zhishu left the south school field and walked around the courtyard to the main school field in the middle, Jing Cun was already standing there, but Jiang Yingnian was nowhere to be seen.
Jing Cun explained: "The third prince and Helan are the last group, it stands to reason that they should be over at this time, why haven't they come out for a long time?" β
"That's right." Zheshu looked to the north and said, "But the third prince is also unlucky, but he was drawn by Helan Lang, where is he Helan Lang's opponent?" Hey? But this is strange, with Helan Yan's kung fu, shouldn't he win the duel early and come out early? β
As soon as Zheshu's words fell, Jing Cun shouted: "Come out, come out!" β
Guan Jiyu looked over again, Jiang Yingnian had already walked out of the north for a long time, and he walked behind Helan Yan, his steps were not hurried, and there was no anger on his face.
Zhi Shu whispered: "What should I do, Ah Yu?" There are four of us in Nanqin, all three of us have won the duel, and naturally we can all enter the army under the command of General Bei Xinxiang, and now only the third prince has lost, do you think he will not be able to lose face and be angry? β
Jiang Yingnian walked closer and closer to the main school field, and said nervously: "He's here, he's coming!" Looking at his expression, he must have lost to Helan Yan, and he is unhappy at this moment! β
Jing Cun reprimanded in a low voice: "Don't say it, pay attention when you can speak." β
Facing Jiang Yingnian who came over, Jing Cun said respectfully: "Third son, are you finished?" β
Jiang Yingnian glanced at the three of them and responded, "Hmm." β
Guan Jiyu looked at Jiang Yingnian's slightly tired appearance, remembering that a few days ago he went to ask Xiang Lincheng to cancel his qualification because of selfishness, and now the group will divide him into a group with Helan Yan, although it was selected by lottery, but Guan Jiyu is not sure if this is a coincidence, or because of something else?
For a moment, she felt a little indebted to him.
Guan Jiyu didn't dare to ask any more questions, and stood silently in the team, waiting for Xiang Lincheng's final verdict on the assessment.
Xiang Lincheng got up from the main platform, held a final roster in his hand, and walked to the front of the queue.
He first hugged his fists at the fourteen people on the field and said: "At present, I urgently need consul generals on the border of the DPRK, so I set up this selection for the border military revenue to recruit talents. β
Xiang Lincheng looked at the roster in his hand again, and continued: "What makes Xiang the most gratifying is that the strength of the people cultivated by the camps of the major families is getting stronger and stronger. In this selection, it is not difficult for us to find that the camp of cultivating reserve troops is no longer limited to the Beixin region, and there is no shortage of outstanding people in the capital and Nanqin teams. β
Speaking of this, everyone looked at Guan Jiyu one after another.
A hint of appreciation flashed in Xiang Lincheng's eyes, and he said: "The final list of this assessment, I will immediately send it to the Beixin border for General Xiang to see, and the strength of each of you will be known in advance, so that you can be assigned corresponding positions in the follow-up army." Next, I will read out the final rankings: seventh place, Qi Yu of North Qiying; sixth place, Feng Tian of Tianyu Battalion; fifth place, Yushan, North Qiying; Fourth place, Qingzi Camp Jingcun. β
There are only the top three left in the list, Guan Jiyu doesn't care whether she is in first place or not, as long as she can successfully enter the military camp under General Xiang, she is already very content.
Xiang Lincheng read out: "The third person is the Qingzi camp; In second place, Lan Zeying Helan Yan-"
As soon as Xiang Lincheng's voice fell, Zhi Shu turned around excitedly, wanting to open his mouth to congratulate Guan Jiyu on his first place.
"The second person is the year of the Qingzi Ying." Xiang Lincheng continued: "The one at the top of the list, Qingzi Ying Guan Jiyu!" In this assessment, eight people were finally admitted. β
The moment Jiang Yingnian's name came out of his mouth, Guan Jiyu thought for a moment that she had misheard, she had never been so shocked, and stood in place for a long time before she came back to her senses. The person beside her obviously didn't expect this unexpected result, and looked at Xiang Lincheng with a puzzled expression.
"Eight? Lord Xiang, didn't you say that two by two duels, and in the end, seven people were left? Why are there eight people in the end? Yu Shan of the North Qi Camp couldn't help but ask.
The crowd began to talk about the result.
"No, just because the duel between Lan Zeying's Helan Camp and Qingzi Camp Jiang Yingnian is a tie, combined with your comprehensive scores, these two can only be ranked second." Xiang Lincheng explained.
Guan Jiyu's mind was blank, she still couldn't accept this result, her lips were pale, and she asked Jiang Yingnian, who was standing next to her, "Why didn't you hear you say you won just now?" β
Jiang Yingnian looked innocent and spread his hands and said, "The problem is that I didn't win at all." Didn't you listen to him? We were tied, no one won, no one lost. β
He raised his eyebrows and said strangely, "Guan Jiyu, what is your expression?" You don't think I can't win the duel, do you? Do you think I'm bad in your heart? β
