Volume Two, The Edge of the Inner Court Chapter 252, Town Hall (4)
Wu Yu was defeated, completely defeated.
When he faced Youli before, he could win in a head-on confrontation.
When fighting Xiao Zhi, he could fight hard and hit the opponent with a punch.
But when it was the Cang Mo Swordsman's turn, he had no choice.
Cang Mo had no expression on his face. After hearing Wu Yu admit defeat, he rolled over and landed on the ground again. He cupped his hands towards Wu Yu and saluted.
The prince smiled slightly and said: "It's okay, it's just a simple sparring. Moreover, Master Mojian Mojian has said it before. This battle is not a victory or defeat. Wu Yu, you can still continue to fight."
"Is there any talented person who wants to give it a try? If not, I will assume that Wu Yu wins directly." The prince glanced at everyone and said with a smile.
Among the seventh-level Tianyuan, there is probably no one here who can defeat Wu Yu. The second prince, the Xiao family, and Cangtian Jiange have successively taken action, and have tested Wu Yu's ultimate combat power. If he wants to defeat him, it is estimated that only the eighth-level Tianyuan can take action.
That’s it.
"Hahaha, although a beauty is beautiful, it must be matched by a hero to be considered an insult. Wu Yu has fought on the battlefield with his father and brother for many years and has made great achievements. He is worthy of the title of hero. Of course he is qualified to choose a beauty first. What do you think?
What?" At this time, the second prince suddenly spoke. After the prince, he had the most say. Although his words could not decide anything, they were enough to influence everyone.
Soon, someone loudly echoed: "Wu Dutong fought for the country, worked hard and achieved great results, so he is naturally qualified. I have no objection."
"Neither do I. The second prince's words make sense..."
…
Seeing that more and more people agreed, the prince turned slightly and said, "Seventh brother, what's your opinion?"
When asked suddenly, Ling Changfeng was startled at first, then he put down his tea cup and smiled: "Brother Wu's strength is obvious to all, and his achievements are well known to everyone. The dragon and phoenix among such people were born in our Yantian Empire, and they are our country's
My opinion is that in addition to the beautiful concubine given by eldest brother, I have another gift to give him."
After that, Ling Changfeng took off a jade pendant from his waist, looked at Wu Yu and said, "This jade pendant was given to me by my father. I give it to you today, firstly, to reward you for your service to the country."
Credit, and secondly, appreciation for the great strength you showed today, Brother Wu, please don’t refuse.”
Wu Yu was flattered, and he accepted the jade pendant in fear, then bent down and saluted: "Wu Yu, thank you, His Highness Seventh Prince."
"Well, Brother Wu, there's no need to be polite. You deserve this. It's just that I'm short on money. I can only afford this jade pendant. This is not only for you, but also for your family. General Wu You and General Wu Yue are
They deserve to be the pillars of my Yantian Empire, and I am looking forward to the three generals of the Wu family." Ling Changfeng helped Wu Yu up and laughed loudly.
"Wu Yu will definitely live up to... the Yantian Empire..." Wu Yu suddenly changed his words mid-sentence. He knew exactly what the situation was like today.
The prince sat in the main seat, with a look of displeasure on his face, and continued: "Seventh brother, in the past six months, I have never heard of you having any friends. I don't know where the three so-called friends behind you are from.
Woolen cloth?"
Ling Changfeng's face darkened.
"Two days ago, a giant bird fell from the sky. Seventh Brother, you went to greet it in person. I would like to know what kind of important person he is, worthy of your going in person."
"Brother, these are my private matters. Do you want to ask about it too?" Ling Changfeng puffed up his chest and met the prince's gaze.
"I'm not asking, but the palace has been quite uneasy recently. I heard that Seventh Brother, you have been assassinated several times. If there were no patrolling imperial troops, you would have been assassinated long ago... Haha, as the eldest brother, for the safety of my younger brothers,
, it is still necessary to remind you." The prince smiled coldly.
"I don't need to worry about it, brother. They are just a bunch of killers who have failed to achieve anything. The seventh brother's life is very tough. It would be fine if the killer only targets me, but if it involves my relatives, then I will never do it."
I won't let them go, brother, you said...right..." Ling Changfeng's eyes narrowed slightly and he looked at the prince.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. It was extremely quiet in Zuimeng Palace, and even the sound of the breeze was so clear.
The prince smiled contemptuously: "This is natural. Not to mention you, I won't let them go. Go on, who else wants to get the beauty."
Ling Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief, and Mo Xuanzhang put his hand on his shoulder, smiled at him and said: "Actually, we can go

.”
"No, I'm asking for your help. I want you to give me the courage, or not to involve you too." Ling Changfeng smiled bitterly. Without them, he might not even have the courage to enter the Drunken Dream Palace.
"Besides, I already know the answer I want."
…
In the following battles, two people won five games in a row. They were Xiao Lan from the Xiao family and Long Chi from the Long family. Both of them were ninth-level Tianyuan. There were few opponents in this realm. They themselves were the most talented in the family.
One of those young men, he is not comparable to those of the guards.
"Hahaha, Lu Gu, good job." Lu You, the leader of the Lu family, smiled at a young man.
"Brother, it's not bad." The young man named Lu Gu smiled.
The fourth person with five victories is Lu Gu.
Except for the Ye family, which has no one among the four major families, all the other three families have already won five consecutive victories.
"After watching your battle today, I discovered something." The prince laughed: "It seems that the geniuses of my Summer Empire are no worse than those of Zhulu Academy."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at him.
"Zhulu Academy only enjoys the best resources. When it comes to talent, which one of you here will admit that you are worse than them? They all say that many people who enter the inner courtyard of Zhulu Academy will become a millionaire within ten years.
"Tao, aren't those resources what helped them step into the Yuandao realm? If those resources are given to everyone to try, the Yuandao realm will be just around the corner in less than ten years." The prince picked up a glass of wine and drank it down.
"Seventh brother, do you think what I said is right?" The prince's face was slightly red. He had obviously drunk a lot of wine, but those who knew the prince couldn't help but know how much he drank. It was not enough to make him drunk.
Ling Changfeng said calmly: "The reason why Zhulu Academy is famous within hundreds of thousands of miles around has never been due to how powerful or talented the disciples are. It is because Zhulu Academy cares about the world and cultivates students who love and protect the world."
The strong men in the world exist. Most of the disciples who graduated from Zhulu Academy have become strong men that everyone respects. They have faith in their hearts and fight to protect the weak. It is because of them that the reputation of Zhulu Academy will gradually grow.
Loud.”
"The world is so big. There must be forces stronger than Zhulu Academy. There will also be people with higher talents than Zhulu disciples, but they just choose a place that suits them. Zhulu Academy has never forced anyone to join. There are many talented people.
Idiom, there are good and bad characters, this is a problem that exists in every sect."
"It's true that Zhulu Academy has good resources, but if the disciples don't want to make progress and live in wealth, no matter how good the resources are, what's the use? Brother, do you think I'm right?"
Ling Changfeng's words made the prince frown. He was unable to refute these words.
"Besides, the most powerful thing about Zhulu Academy is not the resources, but the philosophy. What I learned in Zhulu is not only cultivation, but also life." Ling Changfeng continued: "Those who are unfaithful, unfilial, unkind, and unjust are not worthy of being
Compared with most sects, this aspect of being a deer hunter is much better."
"His Majesty Seventh is wrong." Xiao Zheshan said: "What we are talking about is the issue of talent. The Crown Prince said that the talents of Yantian Empire are no worse than those of Zhulu Academy. Where did His Majesty get involved?"
"I'm not denying what the elder brother said. In our Summer Empire, there must be some people who are more talented than some of the disciples of Zhulu Academy, but that doesn't mean everything. Just like the two people who were in the same class as me I mentioned before.
, among all of you here, no one can surpass these two."
"What I want to express is that every sect has people with outstanding talents. If the top geniuses in the world are all in Zhulu Academy, how can other sects survive? So what the elder brother said is to distribute resources to everyone.
To say that everyone can enter the realm of Yuandao is a non-existent hypothesis. What is the point of us proving whether a hypothesis is correct?" Ling Changfeng said gently.
"Your Highness Seventh, you keep saying how powerful those two geniuses are, but we can't see it with our own eyes. It's not that we don't believe His Highness, it's just that His Highness's words will inevitably chill everyone here. I don't know, but I thought Seventh
His Highness said that the talents of Xia Tian Empire are not as good as Zhulu Academy." Xiao Zheshan sneered.
Ling Changfeng frowned. He had just been in a hurry to explain, and unknowingly fell into Xiao Zheshan's trap.
"I didn't mean that. I was just discussing the matter. And I also said that the Summer Empire has a lot of competition.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
There are people who are strong in the academy but there are people who are not as good as them, and there is no absolute talent."
"Really? Hearing is false, seeing is believing. His Highness Seventh Prince has been admitted to Zhulu Inner Academy. I believe his talent has been recognized by Zhulu Academy. Why don't His Majesty Seventh Prince open your eyes to everyone and let us see Zhulu Inner Academy?
How powerful is this genius?" Xiao Zheshan said with a sullen face and a sinister smile.
Yan Ting's eyes were half-squinted: This turtle is not a human, but a dog. He really has a way of licking him to this extent!
"It has been half a year since I came back, and I have never practiced in the Zhulu Inner Court for a day. In the past six months, my cultivation has declined because of the supervision of the country, and I am far from being a match for the geniuses here. Why should Brother Xiao be so aggressive?" Ling Changfeng said with an ugly face.
"His Majesty Seventh Prince means that without the resources of Zhulu Academy, no matter how talented the disciples in the inner courtyard of Zhulu Academy are, they can only achieve this much, right?" Xiao Zheshan flicked his sleeves and turned his back to Ling Changfeng:
"Isn't that just in compliance with His Highness the Crown Prince's words? The Zhulu Inner Courtyard just has the best resources."
Ling Changfeng held his breath in his heart and snorted coldly: "Whatever you want to think, that's up to you."
"Your Majesty the Seventh Prince." Xiao Zheshan said: "I have brought a third-level Tianyuan servant here. If His Majesty the Seventh Prince feels that he is not a match for the geniuses here, then he might as well fight with my servant. You are very much looking forward to it.
, the demeanor of the disciples of Zhulu Academy."
The corners of the prince's lips raised, this Xiao Zheshan really did not disappoint him.
The other princes also showed different attitudes. They could not all turn towards the prince. If the prince's family was the only one, there would be no chance for them to stand up. After more than ten years of family ties, some of them still wanted to side with Ling Changfeng.
of.
But now it seems that Ling Changfeng's power is too weak, and following him is tantamount to seeking death. They are waiting for Ling Changfeng to come up with a trump card that is enough to compete with the prince.
Bang!
A loud noise drew everyone's thoughts.
Behind Ling Changfeng, a table was smashed into pieces. Yan Ting grabbed a table leg, his fingers slightly merged, and the table leg was crushed into powder in the palm of his hand.
"If I remember correctly, you should be from the Xiao family, one of the four major families in Yantian Imperial City." Yan Ting walked up to Ling Changfeng, looked at Xiao Zheshan, and spoke slowly.
"Who are you?" Xiao Zheshan said coldly.
"And he should be the current seventh prince of the Yantian Empire. Everyone in the Yantian Empire is called His Majesty the Seventh Highness. He has a distinguished status, right?" Yan Ting asked again.
"Yes." Xiao Zheshan frowned slightly, not understanding why he asked like this.
The expression on Yan Ting's face gradually became cold, and he said angrily: "Then what kind of dog are you? You dare to talk to His Majesty the Seventh Prince like this? A son of a family actually offends the current prince, and you dare to ask the Seventh Prince and your servants
In a battle, when can the hands of the Xiao family cover even the royal family's sky?"
The last sentence was shouted by Yan Ting. It was sonorous, powerful and shocking. The hearts of everyone present were trembling and deeply shocked.
Xiao Zheshan's expression changed with shock. This boy actually put such a label on him.
"I……"
"Shut your stinky mouth." Yan Ting interrupted him directly: "Xiao Zheshan, the following is guilty of treason and treason. He contradicted the seventh prince with words first and humiliated him later. The seventh prince is now responsible for supervising the country. His words and deeds represent
Lord of the Yantian Kingdom, your Xiao family is just a family, and you, Xiao Zheshan, are just a commoner. How dare you openly challenge the imperial power and humiliate the emperor's favor? His heart is punishable, and his crime deserves death. Xiao Zheshan, you are bound to die.
This crime!"
"I..." Xiao Zheshan was in a panic, but he tried his best to control his emotions.
"With your background in the Xiao family, you are definitely not qualified to support you in doing such a rebellious thing. Your Xiao Zheshan doesn't seem to be that courageous. Who ordered you to provoke the seventh prince who is currently supervising the country? Who is behind you?"
Tell me who the mastermind is."
Yan Ting roared loudly, Xiao Zheshan's eyes were horrified, he stepped back, his brows were furrowed, as if he was absent-minded.
The prince's face turned gloomy when he saw his appearance.
"If you don't tell me, you'll die!" Yan Ting said calmly and directly pronounced Xiao Zheshan's death sentence.
A faint smile appeared on Ye Sixuan's lips, and the highlight of today had finally begun.
