Chapter 118 Speak for the opponent

Zhou Qun's last attack was indeed strange, and it was definitely not something that a young warrior from Zhou Tian could perform.

He originally felt that Zhou Qun's attack was vaguely similar to that of Yang Xuanlan, but as a colleague, Wang Tai instinctively did not want to think so.

Now that I hear Yang Xuanlan mention it, I feel suspicious.

Wang Tai had heard of this "Madman Zhou", and if Zhou Qun was really his disciple, it would be explained.

"Sir, I can confirm this!"

Unexpectedly, another voice sounded. At some point, a heavily armored "Captain" lowered his head and appeared not far from Yang Xuanlan.

"oh?"

Wang Tai's brows moved slightly, and then his eyes softened. He didn't know many of the captains of Langya County, but since these captains came forward, this matter should not be false.

On this matter, the officers in the army are not so bold to lie.

"General Wang, after all, this is also my dereliction of duty."

Yang Xuanlan said with a hint of regret:

"As the guard of Langya and the examiner of this martial arts examination, it is my duty to screen out those candidates who have evil intentions and ulterior motives. I didn't expect that such candidates would sneak in."

"I had some doubts about Zhou Qun's identity. Unfortunately, there was no evidence. It was only just now that I got information from my subordinates, proving his origin. This is really a dereliction of duty on my part!"

Yang Xuanlan said.

Hearing Yang Xuanlan's voice, Zhou Qun suddenly woke up, and a feeling of sadness and anger came to his heart. Zhou Qun struggled a few times, opened his lips and was about to speak when he saw a pair of cold eyes.

For an instant, it was like a basin of ice water being poured down from above his head. Zhou Qun trembled all over and immediately seemed to have lost all his strength.

"Master..."

Zhou Qun closed his eyes in pain. Winner or loser, he failed in this game. He couldn't blame others. Now, Zhou Qun's only hope is that Yang Xuanlan will let him go for the sake of not confessing him.

Master.

"General Yang, the aura of Zhou Qun's punch just now is not the same as his own blood. In my opinion, it may not have been taught by his master, right?"

On the ring, Yang Ji suddenly spoke. One sentence immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Yang Ji!"

Chen Zhu's heart skipped a beat. Although he knew that Yang Ji and Yang Xuanlan had a bad relationship, Chen Zhu never thought that Yang Ji would dare to question Yang Xuanlan publicly in the ring.

"This is not good! It is absolutely disadvantageous for the candidates in the martial arts examination to provoke and question the examiner."

Chen Zhu was secretly worried.

Although he knew that Yang Ji was angry, such public questioning would be extremely detrimental to his ranking in the martial arts examination. If it were not recorded in the court's resume and files, it would be really troublesome.

"Yang Ji. What do you mean?"

Yang Xuanlan's eyes turned cold and he said in a deep voice.

"When the birds are gone, a good bow is hidden; when a cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys are cooked." Although he understood that it was extremely unwise to question Yang Xuanlan publicly like this, Yang Ji still couldn't stand it after all, Yang Xuanlan just dismissed him after taking advantage of Zhou Qun.

Throw him into the abyss.

Zhou Qun, who took action, was hateful. But Yang Xuanlan, who was hiding behind the scenes, was the truly hateful person. In this conspiracy against him, Zhou Qun was just a poor puppet. He was just another victim!

"Between master and disciple, the skills and knowledge are inherited from the same source. There is no situation where the skills are the same, but the blood and spirit of the disciple and the master are completely different."

Yang Ji glanced at Zhou Qun, who had no backhand power in Yang Xuanlan's hands, and then said:

"Furthermore, although Zhou Qun's master is Kuangren Zhou, the master is the master and the apprentice is the apprentice. Could it be that sins can also be passed down? All the way through the martial arts examination, he almost relied on his own ability. What's more, he has such a responsibility

If he had really evil intentions, he would have used his powerful power long ago. Why would he make himself so embarrassed? And he was so seriously injured?"

The crowd was buzzing. No one thought that Yang Ji would actually speak for his opponent Zhou Qun. But I had to admit that what Yang Ji said made sense.

If Zhou Qun really had evil intentions and met Yang Ji, Yang Ji would have been defeated long ago if he directly used such an ability at the beginning. How could he be injured like this?

Obviously, deep down in his heart, he actually does not want to use this power.

With Yang Xuanlan in his hands, Zhou Qun opened his eyes with difficulty, looked at Yang Ji on the ring, and cast a grateful glance. He did not expect that Yang Ji would speak for him at this time.

"I, Bai Zhong, seldom convince others, but this time I really convinced him!"

Among the crowd, a Paektu Mountain disciple was filled with emotion. A few days ago, he had a conflict with Yang Ji at the gate and was defeated and humiliated by Yang Ji. He has always been brooding about it.

But at this moment, Bai Zhong had to admit that he would never be able to do the same thing.

Being able to speak for one's opponent in front of a martial arts examiner is already worthy of admiration.

In another position among the crowd, Cao Dian's clothes were as black as ink and he said nothing, but there was a strange look in his eyes.

"Yang Ji, pay attention to your tone. The imperial court has its own investigation methods. Are you doubting the results of the imperial court's investigation now? Or, do you think you are smarter than the imperial court?"

Yang Xuanlan raised his head, squinted his eyes, and said in a cold voice.

Yang Ji opened his lips and subconsciously wanted to speak, but in the end he controlled himself. Yang Xuanlan absolutely could not accept such words, and the next step would become contempt for the court.

This can be much more serious than provoking the examiner of the martial arts examination.

After all, this is Yang Xuanlan's home court after all. The identity gap between Yang Ji and Yang Xuanlan is too big, and there is only so much they can do.

"enough!"

Veteran general Wang Tai finally stood up:

"Yang Ji, I understand that you want to help Zhou Qun. However, as General Yang, as the general of the county, he will never do anything wrong. - General Yang, I will leave this matter to you.

"

Although Wang Tai had a good impression of Yang Ji, he always put fairness first in his dealings with others. Zhou Qun borrowed the power of others to cheat in the martial arts examination. The evidence for this matter is conclusive, and there is absolutely no way he could be wronged in the slightest.

The only thing that is fortunate now is that Zhou Qun's actions did not cause huge casualties. I have to thank Yang Ji for this.

If Yang Ji hadn't invited him over, he wouldn't have appeared in the stands, thus averting this crisis.

Hearing Wang Tai's words, Yang Ji sighed deeply. After all, his strength was still too weak.

In this matter, words and words can only help so much.

"Take him down!"

Yang Xuanlan threw Zhou Qun aside to the captain, and several others led Zhou Qun to separate the crowd and left quickly, disappearing deep into the inner hall in the blink of an eye.

"General Yang, this competition arena can no longer be used. There should be a spare arena, right?"

Wang Tai looked at Yang Xuanlan and said.

"It's natural, but it takes some time."

Yang Xuanlan said with his hands behind his back.

"This is best.—Announce the results now!"

Wang Tai flicked his sleeves and left the scene.

The senior captain in charge of the knockout rounds understood and stepped onto the ring again.

"Yang Ji wins!——"

"boom!"

The silent crowd once again burst into cheers like a mountain falling apart. Although there were many twists and turns, and even a wanted criminal from the court was involved, in general, precisely because of this, this game was a good one.

A wonderful visual feast.

After this game, there was another "Wu Xiucai" in the imperial court.

"Finally it worked!"

In the ring, Yang Ji breathed a long sigh of relief. Although he went through twists and turns, in the end, he still reached this point.

"First pass the examination as a martial arts scholar, then win the martial arts examination, and finally become a martial arts scholar, martial arts champion... Now the first step has been achieved."

Things were going on in Yang Ji's mind.

No one cares about a martial arts scholar. Only by winning over martial arts scholars can one get a ticket to cross the threshold of official career in the Han Dynasty.

"A journey of thousands of miles begins with small steps." Now this first step of "small steps" has been taken.

Taking a deep breath, Yang Ji stepped towards the audience.

"Um?"

Suddenly, Yang Ji's eyebrows moved and he looked towards the edge of the ring, where two inconspicuous little golden figures were stuck in the twisted fine iron gaps of the ring.

"King Kong Puppet!"

A flash of lightning flashed in Yang Ji's mind, and he recognized them as the two "Vajra Puppets" of the Buddhist sect that Zhou Qun carried with him.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be hard to believe that the two Vajra puppets, who were so powerful that they could rival the powerful men of Little Zhou Tian and could not even withstand the fire of the Balrog, would actually turn into such two small men after losing their energy.

A doll was thrown into the ring by Zhou Qun.

Such precious things should not have been thrown away like this, but it was a pity that Yang Xuanlan turned against him so quickly that Zhou Qun had no chance to pick up these two important things.

"Whoosh!"

Yang Ji opened his sleeves and immediately sent out a suction force to take the two vajra puppets into his hands. This flipping movement was so subtle that no one noticed it in the chaos.

Zhou Qun had already been taken away at this time. Yang Ji glanced around and was about to hand it over to the high-ranking captain who was presiding over the competition and asked him to hand it over to Zhou Qun. But his mind changed and he changed his attention again.

"Yang Xuanlan is now the general of Langya County and has great power in the army. When I hand these two Vajra puppets to someone in the army, it is equivalent to handing them over to him. They will never return to Zhou Qun's hands."

Yang Ji was silent in his heart.

The entire Langya County was under Yang Xuanlan's control. Looking around the whole place, Yang Ji couldn't find anyone he could trust and entrust.

"That's all. It's better to ask for help from others than to ask for yourself. I'll hand it over to him myself."

Yang Ji thought to himself.

With his robe swaying, Yang Ji quickly walked off the ring.

"Senior Brother Yang, congratulations! Wu Xiucai, you are now a real Wu Xiucai! Haha..."

"Junior Brother Yang, congratulations!"



As soon as Yang Jigang stepped off the ring, Ouyang Zishi, Chen Zhu and the disciples of the Black Sword Sect came to greet him one after another. A sound of joy came from all directions.

"Thanks."

Yang Ji smiled and thanked everyone one by one. Although he went through twists and turns, the final result was still good.

After lingering in Wudian for a while, Yang Ji left quickly.

"What, we can't meet you?"

Deep in the Martial Palace, when Yang Ji went to find Zhou Qun, he got this reply.

"There is an order from above. Zhou Qun is involved in the most wanted criminals of the imperial court. No one except Mr. Yang has the right to approach."

The soldier guarding the gate said expressionlessly.

"Not even me, the captain?"

Yang Ji held up the "Captain's Walking Token" in his hand.

"Can't!"

The soldier's answer was categorical, leaving no room for change.

Yang Ji remained silent, with a thick cloud passing between his brows.

Although Zhou Qun cheated in the examination room, his crime was not serious. Yang Ji originally wanted to hand the King Kong puppet to him after the battle, but he did not expect this answer.

"Yang Xuanlan!"

A flash of lightning flashed across his mind. Although Yang Ji was a little unwilling, he had to face this unchangeable fact.

——Yang Xuanlan used Zhou Qun to frame him. Now that Zhou Qun’s incident has happened, Yang Xuanlan will never let anyone contact him again. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
