Chapter 216: A Shocking Arrow
Ling or followed the team of the Yuwen Department to participate in the competition, and entered the same way.
He didn't know the warriors of the Northlands around him, but he didn't feel cramped either.
With the arrival of Emperor Tuoba Hong of Handyong, the mountain call long live resounded throughout the grassland.
As one of the participating warriors, Ling or they can not kneel to worship the Son of Heaven before the competition.
Emperor Tuoba Hong doesn't seem to be a man of many words, and he didn't use this event to say some inspirational words to uplift people's hearts.
After the emperor sat down, he just waved his hand slightly.
The horn sounded in an instant, and the first event began to follow the process.
The martial arts festival competition is divided into three stages, the first stage is the fist and foot kung fu game competition.
For Ling He at this stage, it is somewhat ridiculous for adults to bully children.
There was hardly any warrior on horseback who could live three rounds under him, a master who had entered the Saint King Xuan Realm in the martial arts realm.
- This is still his subordinates showing mercy, deliberately releasing water without doing their best, otherwise he is afraid that his opponent will be defeated within one move.
There is no doubt that he must be the one who will win in the end of their group.
Ling or his ability to lift weights with ease naturally also attracted the attention of the Emperor of Handyong, who sat at the top.
Tuoba Hong, who has passed the age of not being confused, but has deep facial features and can still be called a beautiful man, waved and asked the attendant behind him:
"Which tribe is that young man in the audience?"
The attendant stared at the audience, smiled and replied respectfully:
"Your Majesty, that warrior seems to be the Hulu Holy Altar of the Yuwen Ministry."
"Oh?"
Tuoba Hong's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he said lightly: "The people of Hulu Holy Altar have not heard of coming to Guangling City for many years.
I heard that the Holy Envoy of Molaya had passed away a month ago, and I didn't think that the young hero of the Hulu Holy Altar had actually entered the world. ”
He looked at it for a moment and said with a smile: "It's a good seedling, it's time to come out for a walk." It would be a pity if you were trapped in the Guanri Peak in the north of the northern border for life. ”
The attendant bowed flatteringly and said:
"No, Your Majesty is powerful all over the world, and he will definitely attract young talents from all over the world."
"Huh."
The Son of Heaven Tuoba Hong shook his head and said, "This kind of nonsense will not have to be said in front of me in the future.
The young talents of the 36th Department of Handyong are still in their own camps, and they are not subject to the dispatch of the imperial court, let alone the world? ”
The attendant slapped the horse's ass, but unexpectedly slapped His Majesty's horse's leg, and was so frightened that he knelt down with a numb thud.
"Your Majesty forgives your sins!"
The squire regretted it in his heart.
For thousands of years in the Northern Dynasty, because of the ancient political system, the concept of tribal clans has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people for many years.
If Tianchen in the Southern Dynasties, Ruian in Zhongzhou and Xulu in the West are "the world of the country", then they are "the world of the family" and "the world of tribes" in the north of Handyong.
Each tribe has always only admired the eldest prince and the royal tent of their respective tribes, and they have neglected the Hanyong Imperial Court.
However, this is not an overnight pass, let alone a situation that can be reversed by one or two generations of emperors.
His Majesty had few great ambitions, and after succeeding to the throne, he dreamed of sleeping at night, trying to concentrate imperial power to change the status quo.
Although it has been effective so far, it is still a long way to go.
The attendant couldn't wait to slap himself twice, he really couldn't open any pot!
The Yuwen Department already has a peerless master with a respected status, the "Lone Wolf Sword Immortal", if there is another young hero.
It is naturally a great thing for Yu Wenbu, but for the Hanyong Imperial Court, it may not be a good thing.
Emperor Tuoba Hong said lightly: "It's okay, you get up." This is the truth, and the status quo of the imperial court has not changed much whether you say it or not. I am not so small that I can't even listen to the truth. ”
Tuoba Hong really wanted to unify the northern grasslands and gather the strength of the 36 departments of Handyong.
Of course, in fact, his ambition is not only for the stability of the Tuoba clan's imperial power, but also for the long-term development of the northern Handyong.
There are many tribes in the north, but most of them are their own battalions, although they have their own advantages, and their combat power is good, but every time they encounter a war, they have their own small abacus.
Each tribe hopes that when there is a reward, the royal court will give priority to their tribe; However, when it is necessary to send people to help and send troops to quell the rebellion, they are not willing to lose their own men.
If it weren't for the three top tribes with the strongest troops, the Yuwen Division, the Achina Division, and the Sudden Drag Division, who had intermarried with the royal court for generations, they would still be obedient to the dispatch, but I am afraid that the imperial court would have been weakened.
However, relying on the power of others is not a long-term solution.
Emperor Tuoba Hong of Handyong turned a string of Buddhist beads in his hand and looked at the audience silently.
It is also time to change the pattern of the Northern Dynasty and Handyong.
Just after speaking earlier, the second round of the competition has also come to an end.
Following the fist and foot game, the second round of the competition was to shoot a moving arrow target.
Ling may be unsurprisingly the leader of their group.
According to the process of the Guangling Martial Arts Festival, the third round, which is the most important and longest-taking round of competition, is mountain and forest hunting.
But this time, only the first place in each group in the first two rounds of the competition can participate.
The top-ranked warriors in each of the two rounds rode forward and stood in a row closest to the throne on the stage, ready to bid farewell to the Son of Heaven and enter the forest.
And Ling Or was finally able to get close and see the face of Tuoba Hong, the son of heaven in the Northern Dynasty.
With just one glance, he immediately lowered his eyes and frowned slightly without moving.
For some reason, Ling Or always felt that His Majesty Handyong was a little kind.
As for where he had seen it, he could not say.
The Son of Heaven finally got up, dressed in a black Handyong Son of Heaven robe, and walked to the edge of the throne.
"Warriors, watching the battle of all the kings today, I am very relieved.
You are a young man with high spirits, loyalty and courage, and he will not accept the prestige of the warriors of the Northern Dynasty in the future. Go! Make a name for yourself! ”
Tuoba Hong's tone was sonorous, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at it from afar.
Several royal court slaves carried a huge shelf covered with a red cloth to the stage, and when the shelf hit the ground, there was a loud noise, which showed that the weight of the objects under the red cloth was extraordinary.
"This is a golden knife that has been collected by the imperial court for many years, and the name of the knife is 'arc unruly'.
Today's third round of hunting champions deserves this knife and the position of captain of the Imperial Court Imperial Forest Army Liupin Huaihua!
The rest of the top 100 warriors who participated in the competition could all be awarded the position of captain of Jiupin Renyong and joined the Royal Forest Army to serve in Handyong. ”
There was an uproar on the field!
"Arc unruly" is the world's famous knife, and most of the people in the Northern Dynasties are good at riding horses, and they like scimitars the most!
- The first reward of the Son of Handyong is enough to make the contestants red-eyed.
And the winner of this Guangling Martial Arts Festival, along with it, actually has the position of Huaihua Captain of the Royal Forest Army of Zhengliupin!
Even other warriors who enter the top 100 rankings can get the honor of the Nine Rank Military Ranks!
