As soon as everyone was seated in their respective positions, someone came up and announced the rules of the exercise.

As He Zhi knew in advance, the rules of this year's Imperial Martial Arts Exercise still have not changed - all the sixty-four large and small forces that joined the martial arts exercise were all settled according to their pre-arranged seats.

Then, the one at the bottom of the queue gets the right to enter the challenge. He can choose a force that is higher than himself to challenge. The challenged must fight. The challenge doesn't limit whether the main player or the secondary player can take on the pitch, but you only get one chance.

In other words, whether it is the challenger or the opponent, if the deputy general loses, it is also a loss, and there is no chance for the main general to play a rematch.

Once the challenger loses the match, they will be eliminated from the competition. Of course, as long as they enter the martial arts performance in the palace, the Northern Wei court will be rewarded. Even at the bottom of the rankings, there is gold and silver to be obtained.

The challenged side is more preferential. Even if you miss once, you will not be eliminated immediately, but you will just have to swap positions with the challenger. But in this way, the challenged side becomes the last one in the ranking, and then it is up to him to come on the stage to challenge. If you miss again, you will be eliminated.

So on the whole, the rhythm of the imperial martial arts is generally from soothing to intense. The front is the process of getting acquainted with each other and ranking the second. The strength of the warriors who appear on the stage is often not too strong. But the further back they go, the more familiar they are with each other's strengths, and the fewer warriors remain in the main hall, the more exciting and brutal the battle becomes.

Now ranked last among all martial artists, that is, the sixty-fourth force, called "Changfeng Firm".

There were two men and one woman in the trading house participating in the competition, one of whom was a young man in his twenties, and the other was a middle-aged uncle with a beautiful beard.

As soon as the waiter in the center of the hall finished speaking the rules, the beautiful bearded uncle walked into the arena.

However, his first sentence surprised the audience.

"Changfeng Commercial Company, please play martial arts with Yanhou Mansion!"

"What? Come up and challenge the Yanhou Mansion?" Not only were the many martial artists who participated in the martial arts exercise talking on the sidelines, but even several officials were shocked.

Just because this challenge of Changfeng Commercial Bank is simply bold! Who is Yan Hou? He is one of the six princes and eight marquis of the Northern Wei Dynasty! The founding marquis who was personally sealed by the founding emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty and retired with the country! A top family that has been handed down for hundreds of years!

Even if the Yanhou Mansion has not been able to give birth to a top-notch bloodline heir over the years, it has gradually declined, and its ranking among the family is getting lower and lower. But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse!

Since the founding of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the ranking of the Yanhou Mansion has never fallen out of the 30th place in the previous imperial martial arts! This time, the Yanhou Mansion was also one of the 32 top forces, skipping the preliminary selection and directly entering the martial arts performance in the palace.

Now, a small Changfeng Firm, dare to come up and pick up the tiger whiskers of the Yanhou Mansion? Is this the Changfeng Firm's audacity and ignorance of life or death, or is there another reason?

Could it be that the major families were dissatisfied with the depravity of the Yanhou Mansion and wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate the Yanhou Mansion and knock them out of the ranks of the top families?

Under the gaze of everyone, the middle-aged martial artist of Changfeng Trading House seemed to be a little nervous, but he did not have the slightest fear.

A moment later, among the four warriors who represented the Yanhou Mansion, some of them stood up to fight.

This warrior who responded to the battle was not the main general of the Yanhou Mansion. This is not unexpected. If in the face of a little-known small force like Changfeng Commercial Bank, the main general must be let out, then the Yanhou Mansion is really majestic.

However, there were many well-intentioned people present who carefully observed the expression of the warrior in the Yanhou Mansion, but they felt more and more strange in their hearts. Logically speaking, if an ant like Changfeng Commercial Bank dares to show his teeth at Yanhou Mansion, this is clearly a provocation! The whole Yanhou Mansion should be furious when they are humiliated by this. However, the warrior who represented the Yanhou Mansion had a calm face.

As for what happened next, it was even more difficult for everyone to understand.

The middle-aged martial artist of Changfeng Trading House and the warrior of Yanhou Mansion just played with each other as if they were performing, and they fought more than a dozen moves without any fireworks, and then the warrior of Yanhou Mansion admitted defeat!

Yanhou Mansion actually admitted defeat? What are you kidding? Yanhou Mansion, one of the Six Princes and Eight Marquis and one of the 14 families of the Northern Wei Dynasty, actually casually lost to a trading house that appeared out of nowhere?

This kind of development is simply shocking the eyeballs. Everyone felt a strong sense of conspiracy.

After Yanhou Mansion admits defeat, it stands to reason that Changfeng Commercial Bank and Yanhou Mansion immediately exchanged positions. However, several people in the seats of Yanhou Mansion did not move. The middle-aged martial artist from the Changfeng Trading House did not speak, but retreated to the side and stood quietly, as if to give way to the stage.

Immediately, everyone saw the chief general of Yanhou Mansion, Wu Daoming, known as the "Wind Chasing Sword God", stand up.

"Wu Daoming of Yanhou Mansion, please send a martial arts performance. ”

The hall once again erupted in a discussion like a swarm of bees coming out of its nest.

The purpose of Changfeng Commercial Bank's challenge to Yanhou Mansion, the real goal of Yanhou Mansion, has finally been exhausted!

"It turned out to be aimed at the Loose Sect! No wonder, no wonder!" Many officials and martial artists showed a look of sudden realization on their faces, and they understood the reason for the strange performance of the Yanhou Mansion before.

There is no doubt that this is a plan against the "Carefree Faction"! The two warriors in the Carefree Sect both participated in the martial arts performance in front of the emperor as "bloodless ones", which can be described as a thorn in the side of all the families in the world!

Since the founding of the Northern Wei Dynasty 800 years ago, it has been the first time that a "bloodless person" has appeared in the top 64 martial arts performances in front of the Imperial Dynasty! For a family that has always been proud of its bloodline and regards it as a symbol of its own natural nobility, the Carefree School is the goal that must go out immediately!

Yanhou Mansion has declined several times, and its position in the family is unstable. They obviously also wanted to seize this opportunity to show their strength and get rid of the dissatisfaction and covetousness of many families towards Yanhou Mansion in recent years.

As for the fate of the Freeman...... After the Yanhou Mansion made a move, no one, whether it was an official or a martial artist, still felt that they had any hope at all.

This is the Yanhou Mansion! The Fourteenth Family of the Northern Wei Dynasty! Even the princes have to concede three points of the top power!

The Imperial Martial Arts had just begun, and the Yanhou Mansion had actually used this method of breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat! Such a determination even suppressed the officials in the surrounding political affairs halls, making everyone dumbfounded for a while.
