These two people are telling the truth.

"If you have a chance in the future, I hope I can ask Sect Xue for advice again."

"No problem, I also hope to communicate with Master Yang and improve together.

The two of them, who were still in full swing just now, were standing among a broken wood, and they were actually having intimate conversations like friends, which really surprised the people on the sidelines.

On the city tower, from the moment Xue Chang started to fight with Yang Yuanming, Emperor Taixiang could not sit upright. The leader of the Xiaoyao Sect swallowed the mountains and rivers, spitting out wind and thunder, and his majestic image firmly attracted his eyes. Even the explosion of the wooden platform did not shock him, but his eyes were even more energetic.

When the competition ended, he was still unsatisfied and whispered in a low voice: "When I was a child, I quietly listened to Mr. Cao, you guys talking about the heroic deeds of the Duke of the National Guard on the battlefield. I often wonder what the scene would be like. But today I saw this competition, I felt that maybe it should be like this."

Cao Zhong looked at the city with a sad expression, and then responded quietly after a while: "Your Majesty, the old minister was stunned to see the figure of the Duke of the National Guard..."

Emperor Taixiang was even more excited when he saw that his ideas were recognized, and then asked: "The Duke of the National Guardian was known as "supporting the sky with one hand" and his palm techniques were unparalleled in the world. I see that Xue Chang's palm techniques are also amazing. What kind of palm techniques did he practice?"

"It seems to be called...the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms." Cao Zhong recalled: "The specific source is still unknown."

"Such power can indeed subdue dragons and tigers." Emperor Taixiang nodded slightly, and his expression became serious: "Did you know that someone sneaked into the Goddess Palace's mansion the night before yesterday, trying to persuade Xue Chang to surrender to Beiyan, but was rejected by him..."

Last night, Xue Chang taught Liu Lingying and others the general outline of the "Nine Yin Scriptures". The two sides exchanged their experiences and the relationship became closer. He couldn't help but remind the mansion that it needed to be more vigilant. What a great person is the Emperor's Concubine? I immediately felt that Xue Chang had a reason for saying this. Under her questioning, Xue Chang told me that there was a visit from the Northern Yan spy the night before. Liu Lingying was originally planning to stay in the mansion for one night. After hearing about this, he felt that it was extraordinary. He quickly returned to the palace and talked about it with Emperor Taixiang.

Cao Zhong was a little surprised and bowed to respond, "The old minister doesn't know about this, and I hope the emperor will forgive him."

"This Dongfangxiong dares to do such a thing under my nose!" Emperor Taixiang punched the arm of the chair with a heavy punch, and said hatefully: "Old Cao, you have to send someone to keep an eye on the Northern Yan mission for me! If you find that someone in this is carrying the name of an envoy and doing illegal things, be sure to capture all the people and stolen goods, so that I can expel Dongfangxiong from the country!"

"Old minister obeys the order!" Cao Zhong hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "The thief who sneaked into the Goddess Palace's mansion is also likely to be the Beiyan spy who has been lurking in Kyoto for a long time."

"Then let them all be pulled out!" Emperor Taixiang glanced at him: "Isn't this the responsibility of the Dragon Guard? I hope that there will be a result before these Northern Yan people leave. At that time, I will take these captured thieves to the Meridian Gate to practice the Dharma. I really want to see what this Dongfang Xiong would do?"

"The Dragon Guard will do its best!" Cao Zhong did not say anything, because he knew very well that the two countries had been peaceful for decades, and there were countless spies sent to each other's capital. They had already caught what they should be caught. Those who could not be caught were outstanding abilities and lurking deeply.

After Emperor Taixiang issued the order, he fell into thought: Xue Chang was really a pearl. He was buried in the sand before, but now as soon as it was revealed, the damn Beiyan people came to win over! It took him a day before he told Grandma the Emperor about this. Are he a little moved by the generous conditions given by the Beiyan people?...

It seems that some things need to be taken seriously!... Emperor Taixiang looked at the Princess of Wei, who looked happy not far away, and reminded him in his heart.

……………………………………………………………………………………

Dongfang Xiong, who Emperor Taixiang thought of, was also in deep thought: Xue Chang showed his majestic and long internal skills in this competition, and his exquisite and domineering palm techniques, which surprised him. Although he had corrected his judgment on Xue Chang's martial arts again and again before, he obviously underestimated it.

More importantly, Xue Chang's last move to defeat Yang Yuanming... Dongfang Xiong repeatedly reproduced the scene of Xue Chang waving his claws in his mind, and finally he made a judgment: the internal strength of controlling that move is likely to be completely different from the domineering internal strength of Zhigang Zhiyang before.

This kid has practiced two internal skills?!... Dongfang Xiong is not sure, but this is enough to attract his attention.

Xue Chang and Yang Yuanming finished their conversation and returned to the rest area. Wherever they passed, they were the imperial soldiers and the nobles, all looked at him with awe. In their opinion, the young man's martial arts were simply too terrible to be able to collapse a huge wooden platform with one palm!

But in the eyes of martial arts people, Xue Chang's attack on the collapsed wood platform was far less shocking than his defeat of Yang Yuanming. Therefore, before Xue Chang entered the rest area, players from various factions had already stood up and bowed to him. Of course, this included Jiang Shenghuo, Feng Youleng and others. Even if they were jealous, they knew very well that the height of Xue Chang's current position is far beyond their reach.

Guo Huaishou even gave a thumbs up with both hands and smiled and praised: "Brother Xue, it's amazing, so amazing! Although I had known that you would be famous all over the world, I didn't expect it to come so quickly!"

Xue Chang smiled and said, "Famous all over the world? I'm just on the road."

Guo Huaishou was stunned when he heard this: "Going on the road? What does it mean?"

"It's okay." Xue Chang didn't want to explain this joke in his previous life in detail to him, so he asked in a different way: "Is the competition over?"

"The competition between you and Master Yang was the last one, but I didn't expect-" Guo Huaishou made an explosive gesture: "It's so earth-shaking!"

Xue Chang said modestly: "The rise of fighting just now was uncontrollable. By the way, since today's competition has ended, can we leave?"

"Brother Xue, don't worry. Long Wei will come over to announce the rankings of players in each group and the next schedule." Guo Huaishou reminded: "This is very important to you, it doesn't matter to me."

Xue Chang knew that Guo Huaishou had lost seven games in the group and was definitely ranked behind. He reached out and patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "It's important to participate."

Guo Huaishou laughed: "I really don't care. We can't do it on land. If we fight on water, we will fight to win a good ranking even if we fight..."

As he was talking, several Long Guard officials walked to the rest area and attracted everyone's attention. Although everyone knew what ranking he was, they also wanted to know what other people's rankings were? Who would he fight with?...

The Long Guard official clasped his fists to everyone and said, "Dear martial arts fellow workers, the three-day group competition has ended, and the result has been released. I will read it for you-"

He said, and took a red list from the hand of the Long Wei next to him, spread it out, and read aloud: "The first place in Group A, the first place in the iron-blooded Changhemen Ye San; the first place in Group B, the Huiwu of Shaolin Temple; the first place in Group B, the Jingxin Master of the Emei Sect; the first place in Group D, Xue Chang of Xiaoyao Sect; the first place in Group Xu, Qiu Yunhan of Tangmen; the first place in Group Ji, Longwei Chen Zhongyi; the first place in Group Geng, Lian Xuanying of Mingqin Villa; the first place in Group Xin, Si Jinyu of Divine Sword Villa; the first place in Group Ren, Mu Lingzi of Taishan Sect; the first place in Group Gui, Gu Shijing of the Goddess Palace.

These ten people are the winners of each group. They will draw lots and capture the warriors. The five who win will be qualified to challenge Yang Zhenren, Wubei Zen Master, Wunu Zen Master, Qingsong Zhenren, Dugu Zhenren, and Su Wuhou. The winner will receive the imperial gift from the emperor and become a national guardian with respect for status. The winner needs to challenge another one, win or draw again, to get the same reward."

At this point, there was a commotion in the rest area. "The Warriors of the Country Protecting the Country" are the highest goal pursued by the martial arts people in the Great Zhou Dynasty. This time someone may reach the top and they will witness it with their own eyes.

Among the ten people mentioned by the Long Gu Shijing, the nine people in office, including Xue Chang, were more or less nervous, just as Xue Chang said: For them, winning the first place in the group was just the beginning, and the real test was still to come.

However, while Xue Chang was slightly nervous, she was also a little surprised. He did not expect that Gu Shijing would win the first place in the group because she focused on the competition with Yang Yuanming and did not have the energy to pay attention to Gu Shijing's last competition. According to Guo Huaishou's prior notice, her opponent was also a strong enemy, but she didn't expect to win!

He turned his head involuntarily and looked at Gu Shijing. Gu Shijing seemed to feel his gaze and raised her head high.

The Long Guard official coughed twice and said loudly again: "The second place in Group A... the second place in Group B... these 10 people will also draw lots to catch the competition. The five who won will draw lots with the first place in the group and lose the five people who lost the first place in the group, but they must follow the rules that the original competition will not be contested. After winning, the five people will have the qualifications to challenge the six national guardians... the third place in Group A... the third place in Group B..."

The Long Guard officials continued, and Xue Chang had already understood: that is to say, the more players who are ranked in the group want to obtain the qualifications of top masters such as Wushu and Wunun Zen Master, the more competitions they will be held. For example, the second place in the group needs to play two games, and the third place in the group needs to play three games... This can certainly prevent some masters from failing to get first due to uneven distribution of strength or unexpected reasons in each group, and some are not worthy of their reputation (such as Yang Yuanming, he may be the first in other groups, but unfortunately he encountered Xue Chang in Ding Group; and Gu Shijing, the group she is in is the weakest, which is the care given by Emperor Taixiang for taking into account the Taihuang Concubine. She may not be able to get first in other groups), so as to ensure that every martial arts expert can fully demonstrate his strength, but for those who are ranked very low, they may not want to continue the competition...
