"Are my plans sorted out?"
Yang Xuanlan squeezed his palms, looked forward and said calmly.
"Everything has been arranged. In the next two games, it will be Yang Ji and Zhou Qun's turn."
The captain bowed his body and lowered his voice.
If there were other people watching carefully at this time, they would find that both Yang Xuanlan and the captain could only see their lips moving but not making any sound. They clearly used a very high-quality martial arts.
"very good!"
Yang Ji nodded with satisfaction:
"After this matter is settled, you can return to the princess. Being a captain is too humiliating for you. I will write a letter to King Taiyuan. With Zhou Kuangren's merits, you should be able to be promoted to the first level."
"Thank you, sir."
The captain said respectfully.
"What? Do you have anything else to say?"
Yang Xuanlan glanced at him and said suddenly.
"Sir, please forgive me for talking too much."
The captain hesitated to speak. After hesitating for a moment, he finally said:
"Yang Ji is just a little boy. In order to deal with him, is it really necessary for the adults to take action personally? Is the risk too great? In fact, if the adults just want to deal with him, my subordinates can definitely help and can definitely let him.
He disappeared without attracting anyone's attention."
The captain lowered his head and said solemnly.
Although Yang Xuanlan had assigned Zhou Qun to deal with Yang Ji, his appearance here already explained a lot.
"Are you questioning my decision now?"
Yang Xuanlan turned his head and stared at him with a cold look in his eyes.
"My subordinates dare not."
The captain's heart trembled, and his head dropped even lower.
The atmosphere was completely silent, and no one else could see it except the two of them.
After a long time, Yang Xuanlan finally withdrew his gaze.
"What to do? What to do, what not to do... I have my own thoughts in mind. I don't need anyone to teach me!"
Yang Xuanlan flicked his sleeves slightly, put his hands behind his back and said calmly:
"Although you were sent here by the princess, Yang Ji is a disciple of my Yang family. Whether it is killing or beheading, only I, the head of the family, can handle it, and I am the only one. Others... no one is allowed to move.
!Understand?"
At the end of the sentence, Yang Xuanlan's voice revealed a chill.
"Yes, I understand."
The captain was shocked and quickly lowered his head.
"Go down."
Yang Xuanlan waved his hand, and the captain turned around and left in a hurry.
…
Yang Ji had been watching Yang Xuanlan. He could see everything clearly, including the captain next to him.
"I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. If Yang Xuanlan appears here at this time, he must have something up his sleeve."
Yang Ji stood in the crowd, thoughtful in his heart.
Before the martial arts examination determines the twelve "martial arts scholars", there is no need for examiners like Yang Xuanlan to appear. Generally speaking, the high-ranking captains in the army are fully qualified.
Yang Ji doesn't believe it at all if Yang Xuanlan appears here without any agenda.
"Today is the last day of the knockout round, which determines the final places for the martial arts examination. With Yang Xuanlan's style, it is absolutely impossible for me to win."
Yang Ji's heart was full of emotions.
As the examiner of the martial arts examination, although he has great power, he also has various restrictions. It is impossible to attack Yang Ji openly in front of everyone.
However, even so, Yang Xuanlan still has ways to deal with himself.
In the previous battles, Yang Ji had already deeply understood this. Not to mention anything else, just relying on the strong will and spiritual aura he had condensed was enough to affect him.
This technique is very secretive, and unless one has extremely high levels of cultivation, it cannot be seen at all.
"This battle is extremely important to me, and there is absolutely no room for any mistakes. No matter what, I must not give Yang Xuanlan the slightest chance to make a move."
Countless thoughts flashed through Yang Ji's mind in an instant.
Yang Xuanlan is the general of Langya County. He is also the examiner of the martial arts examination, which means that he has enough convenience and reason to appear in any examination.
If you want to stop him, unless you... find an existence of the same level!
"Senior Brother Chen, let me leave first."
Yang Ji's heart moved. He said something to Chen Zhu and Ouyang Zushi, then squeezed through the crowd and walked towards the gate.
Yang Xuanlan has a high position and there is only one person in Langya County who can compete with him - General Wang Tai!
There are many guards in the Martial Palace. It is not easy to find General Wang Tai, but it is not too difficult.
"I want to see General Wang Tai!"
Yang Ji took out the "Captain's Walking Badge". At the door, two soldiers only hesitated for a moment and then quickly let Yang Ji pass.
After passing through the layers of guards, in a large hall deep in the Martial Palace, Yang Ji saw Wang Tai sitting on a mahogany chair and drinking tea.
"It's you?"
Seeing Yang Ji, Wang Tai was obviously startled, and then became slightly unhappy:
"The Martial Hall is an important place of the imperial court. If you are not in the front hall, what are you doing here?"
During the martial arts examination, the martial arts hall was heavily guarded, and not everyone could appear in the back hall. But obviously, this did not work for Yang Ji.
Wang Tai didn't need to think too much, he knew that the "Captain's Walking Token" in Yang Ji's hand had played a role.
During the period when the martial arts examination was held, the imperial court was often seriously short of manpower, so recruiting experts from the army became a smooth process.
Yang Ji was nominally a captain of the imperial court, with a very high rank. During the martial arts examination period, unless there was a special order, there were generally no restrictions on entry and exit.
"Sir, students come here to ask for something."
Yang Ji did not panic, he bowed deeply and said:
"In this martial arts examination, the student was lucky enough to be included in today's competition list. Whether he can succeed or not depends on today's last try. Therefore, the student would like to ask the teacher to take a look."
"oh?"
Wang Tai put down the tea cup, his eyes flashed, he was a little surprised at first, then nodded and said happily:
"It turns out that you also made it into today's game. Yes, regardless of success or failure, just being able to enter today's list is worthy of encouragement."
He knew that Yang Ji participated in the martial arts examination, but Wang Tai did not. He actually squeezed into the final list of twenty people.
Although he doesn't like those who don't follow the rules, Wang Tai still admires those talented young people very much.
In particular, Yang Ji carefully studied his "Martial Strategy" and was considered his student to a certain extent.
"It's not impossible to visit your competition. However, the imperial court has its own rules. If I appear there rashly, I'm afraid it will be unfair to the candidates competing against you."
Wang Tai frowned as he pondered.
A veteran general like Wang Tai is gaining increasing authority. Even if he does nothing and just stands there, he will probably cause stress to many candidates.
The reason why Wang Tai does not appear in the front hall, but is on standby in the back hall, is just like this. Wang Tai's behavior is very nail-like, rivet-like, and he does not want to have the slightest impact on the candidates taking the martial arts examination.
Yang Ji's request obviously made him a little embarrassed.
"grown ups."
Yang Ji gritted his teeth and said:
"If you are considering affecting other people, then there is no need. As far as I know, General Langya will also be there to watch the battle!"
