Chapter 109: Marriage Contest

The first rays of morning light entered the room the next day, and Mu Xiaofeng was awakened by the dazzling sunlight, he had long been accustomed to waking up at the slightest movement. He craned his neck to look at He Qian lying on the bed, He Qian was still sleeping fragrantly, and the sun shone on her face to reflect her lovely face. Mu Xiaofeng didn't want to disturb the sleeping He Qian, so he put the futon aside, and quietly got up and opened the door. Mu Xiaofeng opened the door and saw Qiao Zi and Xi Mo, the two of them were about to knock on the door Mu Xiaofeng opened the door.

Mu Xiaofeng looked a little flustered when he saw Qiao Zi, because there was a girl lying in his room, and if Qiao Zi saw it, he didn't know how to explain it. Qiao Zi also noticed Mu Xiaofeng's expression, so she walked to Mu Xiaofeng's room. As soon as Qiao Zi entered the door, he saw He Qian lying on Mu Xiaofeng's bed, and Qiao Zi turned his head to look at Mu Xiaofeng angrily.

Mu Xiaofeng hurriedly explained to Qiao Zi at this time, "He Qian, she is more afraid of being alone, so she came to sleep in my room, I slept on the ground, and the bedding was over there!" Mu Xiaofeng hurriedly stretched out his hand and pointed to the futon he had packed to show Qiao Zi, but the anger on Qiao Zi's face did not dissipate at all.

And at this time, He Qian was awakened by Mu Xiaofeng's voice, she rubbed her sleepy eyes, and then saw Qiao Zi and Mu Xiaofeng with an embarrassed face, she understood what was going on. She hurriedly told Qiao Zi what had happened, and Qiao Zi was a little uneasy, but she no longer wanted to know what was going on with this matter, so she gave up.

They had not rested long in the tavern when a messenger came to let them into the palace, this time the king wanted to see them. Mu Xiaofeng and the four of them entered the palace with the guards, and Wang Zhou Zhou He Ming and Zhou Linlin were already waiting in the palace. When Zhou Heming saw Mu Xiaofeng, he immediately smiled, stepped off the throne, took Mu Xiaofeng's hand cordially, and said, "Mu Xiaofeng! I want to thank you again for saving my brother, and I'm looking forward to seeing you participate in this marriage contest! ”

Mu Xiaofeng looked at Zhou Linlin, Zhou Linlin nodded towards herself, and then Mu Xiaofeng responded to Zhou Heming with a wry smile: "Back to the king, I also want to participate in this marriage competition, but there are only four of us now!" Or the king would better take back his fate, right? ”

Zhou Heming looked at Mu Xiaofeng and them, Mu Xiaofeng and the four of them were just a few children, even if they participated, it would be difficult to win, so Zhou Heming nodded, it seems that Zhou Heming didn't want to embarrass Mu Xiaofeng.

At this time, Zhou Linlin was not happy, she frowned, walked in front of Zhou Heming, pulled his clothes, and said coquettishly: "Brother, I can be with Mu Xiaofeng and them!" There's no rule that says princesses can't participate in competitions, right? And I don't want to marry someone who is not even as good as me. ”

Zhou Heming heard his sister say this, and he also felt that it made sense, so he agreed to Zhou Linlin and Mu Xiaofeng's team to participate in tomorrow's marriage competition. After a few more greetings, Zhou Heming left, and he was going back to work on his art. But it's strange to say, a king doesn't love the beauty of the country but loves art, it seems that he supported Zhou Heming to take the throne and drove Zhou Hesheng away because he looks easy to manipulate. Before leaving, Zhou Linlin also viciously gestured his fist at Mu Xiaofeng, signaling him to remember what he promised, Mu Xiaofeng had no choice but to shake his head helplessly.

Early the next morning, Mu Xiaofeng came to the palace, and there were hundreds of people gathered in the palace, almost all of them were older than Mu Xiaofeng, and it was rare to see people of the same age. Mu Xiaofeng looked at this group of people and took a deep breath, it seemed that this was another not easy job.

At this time, someone suddenly patted Mu Xiaofeng on the shoulder, Mu Xiaofeng looked back, this person was wearing a mask and covering his face, but from his glamorous eyebrows, he could see that this person was Zhou Linlin. Mu Xiaofeng and the others were just about to salute when they were stopped by Zhou Linlin, Zhou Linlin whispered: "Keep a low profile, don't let people find out my identity." ”

Mu Xiaofeng and the others nodded, and several people converged and walked towards the crowd. The group of people stood in the palace for a while, and Wang Zhou Zhou He Ming walked out, and everyone immediately knelt down and saluted when they saw Zhou He Ming. Zhou Heming announced to everyone in the palace: "Welcome to participate in the marriage contest of the princess of Junguo, the location of this contest will be held in the royal martial arts arena, the royal martial arts arena is near the royal capital, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people, and there are all kinds of plants, flowers, birds, and beasts. The rules of the tournament will be collected at the exit of the palace, and after receiving them, please follow the guards into the royal arena. ”

After listening to Zhou Heming's instructions, Mu Xiaofeng and the others went to get the rule book, the rules of this competition are really complicated, the densely written instructions in this booklet made Mu Xiaofeng look a little big, and he thought it was just a simple competition.

Hundreds of small tents were set up in the royal arena, and each person occupied one tent first. Other tents may have flags inside, or they may have water or food, and water and food are placed at regular intervals in the four corners of the royal arena. The tournament starts when the horn blows in the hall of martial arts, and the result of this tournament is to see which team has the most flags or which team can beat all the other teams after four days.

Mu Xiaofeng and the others came to a tent under the guidance of the guards and settled down, they didn't wait long before they heard the sound of the horn, it seemed that this marriage contest had started like this, which also meant that the danger was coming.

When the horn sounded, the entire martial arts arena instantly boiled. Mu Xiaofeng and the others ran out of the tent to see that every team outside had already started to fight. Zhou Linlin looked at this scene, took a deep breath, and then told the others: "The game has just begun, it is inevitable that there will be some people who are hot-headed, and they will definitely attack towards the nearest target." Let's hold it down, and after a while it'll be quiet here. ”

As soon as Zhou Linlin finished speaking, a bow and arrow shot towards Zhou Linlin, and Mu Xiaofeng raised his hand to block it with a heavy sword after noticing it. At this time, an ice pick fell from the sky and smashed directly into everyone, but Zhou Linlin's timely reminder still allowed them to avoid the attack.

At this time, five boys who were slightly older than Mu Xiaofeng stood in front of them, and they should have been the ones who attacked before. Mu Xiaofeng carefully looked at the five people opposite, and the five on the opposite side were two sword and shield warriors, a bow and arrow shadow man, a water elemental polymath and a priest.

Zhou Linlin didn't want to start a war with these people now, so she shouted at the five people opposite: "Hey! The five of you. There's no need to be so desperate at the beginning, right? Why don't we make a truce and sit back and see whether we succeed or fail? ”

What Zhou Linlin said was very reasonable, but the five people on the opposite side didn't seem to have any intention of retreating, they were still standing there, staring at Mu Xiaofeng and the others.

Suddenly, the Bow Shadow Man and the Water Elemental Erudito took the lead, and the bow and arrow and the icicle attacked Zhou Linlin at the same time. Xi Mo was not in a hurry at this time, and raised his double shield to protect Zhou Linlin's body, easily blocking these two attacks.

However, the attack did not stop, the two of them were constantly attacking Zhou Linlin remotely, Xi Mo had no way to move his position, so he could only stand in front of Zhou Linlin to protect her.

Zhou Linlin was a little angry at this time, the other party didn't listen to her own persuasion, she was not to be outdone, and kept fighting back at the other party, but the two sword and shield warriors on the other side also made Zhou Linlin have no way to break through their defense.

Mu Xiaofeng has been standing by and watching at this time, he is also tired of watching, but he always feels that something is wrong. He now stepped forward and went straight to the other party's five people, these five were also surprised to see Mu Xiaofeng coming, but the strange thing was that their two long-range firepower did not attack Mu Xiaofeng, but continued to attack Zhou Linlin.

Mu Xiaofeng had already rushed in front of these five people at this time, and a sword and shield warrior stopped in front of Mu Xiaofeng, and then raised his hand and slashed towards Mu Xiaofeng with a sword. However, this person underestimated Mu Xiaofeng's strength too much, and Mu Xiaofeng swung his heavy sword and slashed directly at the one-handed sword of this sword and shield warrior. The hand of this sword and shield warrior was numb by Mu Xiaofeng's strong strength, he underestimated the strength of Mu Xiaofeng's child too much.

Mu Xiaofeng slashed over again at this time, and this sword and shield warrior's hand was already so shocked that he couldn't hold the sword at this time, and the one-handed sword in his hand fell directly. However, when Mu Xiaofeng's third sword came down, he could only use his shield to defend, but he was still knocked out by Mu Xiaofeng. Mu Xiaofeng looked at this sword and shield warrior, and then said contemptuously: "You are too bold, do you think that you can easily catch my attack when you are older than me?" ”

The sword and shield warrior frowned, then raised his hand to signal retreat. Mu Xiaofeng saw that they were about to run, and then walked forward to chase after them. But at this time, an earthen wall suddenly appeared in front of Mu Xiaofeng, blocking his way. Mu Xiaofeng let out a loud shout and split the earthen wall with his heavy sword, but in front of Mu Xiaofeng was a thick fog, and the five people were gone.

Zhou Linlin looked at the earthen wall that suddenly appeared, and said to himself: "Seeing that these people are really prepared, they must have united with others." Zhou Linlin recalled everything just now and suddenly thought of something, and then hurriedly ran back to the tent. The others saw Zhou Linlin hurriedly enter the tent, so everyone followed. When they entered the tent, they saw that the flag in their tent was gone.

Mu Xiaofeng suddenly realized at this time that they had been attacking Zhou Linlin before, just to let her attention hit the enemy in front of her. The Twin Blade Shadowmen had already infiltrated the tent, and he had already stolen the flags from the tent.

Mu Xiaofeng scolded angrily, "This group of despicable villains, I didn't expect to steal the flag while we were fighting. Then Mu Xiaofeng picked up his heavy sword and ran out of the tent. Everyone was also worried about Mu Xiaofeng's safety, so they chased after each other, anyway, there was no point in guarding a tent with nothing, there was nothing in the tent. After walking for a long time, they saw five injured people lying on the ground, and these five people were the people who had fought with Mu Xiaofeng and them before.

Mu Xiaofeng saw the sword and shield warrior who had fought with him before, he squatted down to carefully check the situation of this person, and the sword and shield warrior also found Mu Xiaofeng, he told Mu Xiaofeng in a weak voice: "It was the five people who cooperated with us before who did it, and they stole your banner and took the opportunity to sneak attack us." ”

Mu Xiaofeng looked at the injured soldier in front of him, and secretly sighed in his heart, this marriage contest was full of deceit. They are no longer just the students they were back then, and each team is an enemy to them.
