Chapter 287 Hypocrite(1/5)
The next day.
Su Yu got up refreshed and met Sun Xicui in the front yard. After eating the breakfast sent by Ma Zai, he led his subordinate Ma Zai and walked towards the square.
When the two came to the square, the square was already crowded with people.
The martial arts competition has not yet begun, and everyone present is discussing everything that happened in Penglai City last night with shock on their faces.
"By the way, Brother Su, did you hear anything last night?"
Sun Xicui thought of the bird chirping last night and couldn't help but ask.
"movement?"
Su Yu looked confused and asked, "What's the noise? I went to bed early last night, but I didn't hear anything."
Sun Xichang said: "Last night, there was a thunderous bird call from the direction of Penglai City. I was still practicing at that time, and then I heard it."
"Thundering bird calls?"
Su Yu continued to shake his head, indicating that he didn't know.
However, at this moment, a middle-aged man sitting next to the two of them intervened and looked at the two of them in surprise.
"Looking at you, you have no idea that such a big thing happened in Penglai City last night."
Sun Xicui couldn't help but be startled, and then asked in confusion: "What happened in Penglai City? We who live in Yaochi Holy Land don't know what happened in Penglai City."
After listening to Sun Xicui's explanation, the middle-aged man smiled and said: "Just last night, there was a battle between Soul Palace realm warriors in Penglai City. One of the Soul Palace realm warriors did not know that he had used a heaven-level martial skill.
, still mobilized the heavenly soldiers, and now most of Penglai City has been turned into ruins under the sound of birds chirping last night."
"Look at the lively discussion among everyone today. They are all trying to guess who the two Soul Palace realm warriors were last night."
After listening to the middle-aged man's words, Sun Xicui couldn't help but widen his eyes.
That thunderous bird call last night was actually a heaven-level martial skill activated by someone else?
"No wonder."
Sun Xicui murmured: "This is no wonder. If it weren't for heaven-level martial arts, how could the movement be transmitted so far?"
"Brother, please tell me carefully about the specific situation in Penglai City last night."
Seeing Sun Xicui's eagerness for knowledge, the middle-aged man was worried that he could not find anyone to vent to about what he had seen and heard last night, so he immediately started talking.
"It's a long story. It happened just after nightfall last night."
Su Yu on the side just listened quietly and did not participate.
To be honest, everything that happened last night was all because of him. He knew everything that happened, so naturally he had no intention of continuing to listen to stories from other people. What others said were mostly made-up stories with added fuel and jealousy.
That’s all.
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, Sun Xicui couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that I couldn't see that world-destroying scene with my own eyes."
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "It's not too late to go today. Anyway, the martial arts competition ends today. The wedding banquet will be tomorrow, and everyone will leave the Yaochi Holy Land the day after tomorrow. Can Penglai City be rebuilt in such a short few days?"
Sun Xicui nodded and said with a smile: "That's right. When you pass Penglai City, you have to appreciate it. It's rare to see such battlefields left behind after using heaven-level martial arts."
The middle-aged man sighed: "Yes, as far as I know, it seems that last year, there seemed to be a ghost emperor from the Hell Gate in Tianyao City in Jingzhou to activate heaven-level martial arts."
"."
After waiting for roughly half an hour, people from the Yaochi Holy Land finally entered the venue. The voices of countless warriors in the audience could not help but weaken at this moment.
Many of them speculated that it was most likely that there was a conflict between the Yaochi Holy Land and the Third Division of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and then one of them used heavenly troops.
Now that people from Yaochi Holy Land have appeared, everyone is extremely curious whether Yaochi Holy Land will explain what happened last night.
But what disappointed everyone was that the Yaochi Holy Land did not mention anything about Penglai City and directly started the drawing of lots for today's competition.
Zhao Yuzhi will draw lots and then announce the competition list.
"Meng Zuyan versus Xiao Lingsu!"
When Zhao Yuzhi announced the results of the draw, everyone in the audience couldn't help but look a little strange.
Today's draw actually only requires the draw of the first group.
Because there are only two groups of people participating in the competition.
Now that the first group has been drawn, the remaining two people will naturally be included in the second group's competition list.
The remaining two people were obviously the eldest prince Wei Zongyuan and the second prince Wei Zongyue.
In this way, Wei Zongyuan and Wei Zongyue will not compete in the finals, but will meet in advance in the semi-finals.
After hearing the result of the lottery, Su Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"It seems that Yaochi Holy Land does not want Yu Nanshuang to marry the royal family."
Su Yu paid a fee in his heart and immediately guessed some of Yaochi Holy Land's plans.
Both Wei Zongyuan and Wei Zongyue must have a strong desire to marry Yu Nanshuang.
But when there is not much difference in strength between the two, they will inevitably enter into a fight, and then a situation in which both sides will lose.
Even if one side loses, they will definitely go all out to seriously injure the other side and make them lose in the finals.
In this way, the two sides are still evenly matched in the fight for the crown prince's position.
"As expected, the opponent I will meet will appear from the group of Xiao Lingsu and Meng Zuyan."
Su Yu thought to himself.
Wei Zongyue and Wei Zongyuan, who were both injured, would not be able to win again if they participated in the second game.
Then Xiao Lingsu and Meng Zuyan came on the stage to start the first competition of the day.
Xiao Lingsu has conquered a cluster of Red Sky Burning God Fire, which undoubtedly occupies a certain advantage over the enemy.
Meng Zuyan was just a warrior at the peak of the Iron Bone Realm, and he knew very well what would happen if he got into a fight. With the idea of a quick victory, he began to bombard Xiao Lingsu indiscriminately as soon as the fight started.
Unfortunately, Xiao Lingsu had already anticipated the opponent's plan and just defended blindly, waiting for Meng Zuyan's three ax rounds to be completed.
By the time Meng Zuyan finished his three-wheel axe, the balance of victory and defeat had already tilted towards Xiao Lingsu.
Meng Zuyan struggled to hold on for several rounds, but due to the exhaustion of energy in his body, he had to admit defeat.
As for the second competition, it seemed quite bloody.
Both Wei Zongyue and Wei Zongyuan wanted to "accidentally" kill each other in this competition, but the strength gap between the two sides did not widen.
The competition between the two Yu Leap Realm warriors undoubtedly made the audience excited.
In the end, after the two sides fought for half an hour, the eldest prince Wei Zongyuan won the battle with a slight advantage.
However, Wei Zongyuan also suffered a lot of injuries. However, this third game will start again after he rests for an hour.
At this time, the people watching the battle suddenly smelled a hint of conspiracy.
The results of all this seem to be what Yaochi Holy Land planned.
The first match was between Xiao Lingsu and Meng Zuyan. Xiao Lingsu won without spending too much.
The second match was between Wei Zongyuan and Wei Zongyue. The two tried their best, but in the end Wei Zongyuan won with difficulty.
Now Xiao Lingsu has enough time to restore the vitality of his Dantian without consuming too much. In the third game at this moment, he can be said to be in peak condition.
On the other hand, the eldest prince Wei Zongyuan had just experienced a huge consumption and could only rest for an hour before starting the third competition.
It is not fair in itself to face Xiao Lingsu in his prime when he is injured.
Wei Zongyuan was naturally aware of this, and his face looked extremely livid when he came on the field.
He knew that Yaochi Holy Land must have manipulated the lottery and deliberately arranged for such a situation to occur.
The purpose is naturally self-evident. The Yaochi Holy Land does not want the saint to marry a member of the royal family.
"If I succeed to the throne one day, I will repay you a hundred times a thousand times for everything that Yaochi Holy Land has done today."
Wei Zongyuan stood in the square where everyone was watching, secretly making up his mind.
"Please advise!"
Xiao Lingsu, who was standing on the opposite side of the ring, cupped his fists and bowed, and said loudly.
Wei Zongyuan's eyes fell on him, his face was extremely solemn, and he said calmly: "You have a good father."
Xiao Lingsu couldn't help but be startled when he heard this. He didn't understand what Wei Zongyuan meant.
However, Wei Zongyuan was too lazy to explain anything, and the competition between the two sides was about to break out.
Just as Su Yu expected, Wei Zongyuan, who suffered huge losses in the previous match, exposed too many flaws when facing Xiao Lingsu in his prime. In the end, Xiao Lingsu slapped him in the chest with a palm, which seemed a little relaxed.
Won this contest.
"Qi'er, look, Lingsu has won."
Seeing Xiao Lingsu defeat the eldest prince Wei Zongyuan, Xiao Jing couldn't help but fall into ecstasy.
As Xiao Lingsu won the match, the afternoon showdown with Yu Nanshuang was just a formality.
Zhou Qi also had unconcealable excitement on his face.
