The sound of drums that spread throughout Zhongdu City symbolized the opening of the arena.
Prior to this, the bet about the battle between Ning Qingyan and Xiao Ruyi spread rapidly in Zhongdu.
Zhao Yun directly bet one hundred thousand taels on whether his little princess would win, and this incident was also spread.
As a result, there was another source of conversation among the people of Zhongdu.
King Ding really doted on his little princess!
But, the questions that followed appeared again.
Since King Ding loves his princess so much, why does he let her go to the ring as she pleases?
One bad move and your life will be lost!
So, does King Ding like the little princess or not?
Word of mouth spreads, and the truth of the matter gets further and further away.
Some people are even discussing that if it is true that King Ding dotes on the princess, will this arena be a deliberate attempt to make Xiao Ruyi cooperate with the fake match in order to make the princess smile?
Anyway, it's not like Xiao Ruyi has never done anything like match-fixing.
It's just that now the roles have been reversed.
As soon as this rumor came out, more and more people paid attention to this arena challenge.
Even gambling has been greatly affected.
Anyway, people believe that with their true abilities, ten Ning Qingyans tied together are no match for Xiao Ruyi.
But if there is a match-fixing, then there is no telling.
For a time, who would win the bet became a tangled problem for everyone.
Amidst such entanglement, Ning Qingyan and Xiao Ruyi had already stood on the middle stage.
Xiao Ruyi looked at Ning Qingyan with malicious eyes, "You are seeking death yourself, so don't blame me."
"Did the fight against match-fixing give you confidence?" As soon as Ning Qingyan said it, she poked Xiao Ruyi's sore spot.
"You!" Xiao Ruyi's eyes became more and more sinister.
If she hadn't caught sight of the bright yellow color above the stands from the corner of her eye, she would have been unable to hold back and killed Ning Qingyan directly.
Xiao Ruyi didn't expect that a tiger-leaping arena competition would alarm even the emperor.
And she is definitely not the one who can attract the emperor.
When she thought of this, Xiao Ruyi couldn't help but feel jealous of the girl standing opposite her.
Why would a loser get such honor?!
…
The voice from the Star Reaching Tower has not yet been heard, indicating that the challenge has not yet begun.
More and more people are coming towards the ring. The original challenge of Tiger Leap is not enough to arouse the curiosity of so many people.
However, once the gambling game started, it was about their own wallets and silver coins, so everyone who almost placed a bet came today.
Fortunately, it is big enough to accommodate so many people.
The stands on the high platform opened, and most of the royal families in Zhongdu City appeared.
The best position is naturally reserved for His Majesty Emperor Dahao.
Next to Zhao Zheng, Zhao Yun is on the right, King Zhou is on the left, and Zhao Xingyao stands one step behind his father.
Ning Yan, who had not left the house for many years, also stood beside Zhao Yun with Li Yangzhou.
Ning Chenhua did not stand in the stands. He took Ning Qinglin and Ning Qing to be with the people below.
Brother and sister Lan Shao and Lan Yi were also standing in the stands where the Lan family was, waiting nervously and expectantly for the challenge to begin.
As for Ukawa...
Today’s challenge includes one game on the Tiger Jump list and one on the Dragon list.
On the Tiger Leaping List are Ning Qingyan and Xiao Ruyi, and on the Dragon Ranking List is Fukuan, who takes the 100th seat on the Dragon Ranking List to challenge the genius for the 72nd seat.
Their challenge will begin after the Tiger Leap Ranking challenge ends.
"Zhuo Guang, did you really let your princess beat you?" Zhao Zheng was very surprised when he first got the news.
From the immortal master, he guessed that Ning Qingyan might be able to practice.
But even so, it is impossible to challenge a fourth-level martial artist.
Before the doubts in his heart were resolved, he heard the news that "King Ding dotes on his wife and spends a hundred thousand taels."
At that time, Zhao Zheng felt that maybe Ning Qingyan was confident.
But looking at it today, Ning Qingyan didn't have any energy fluctuations on her body, and she seemed to be the same useless person who couldn't practice.
This...how to challenge?
Zhao Yun nodded.
Zhao Zheng had nothing to say, and looked at Prince Zhou and his son on the other side, and finally said: "Let Xiao Ruyi stop reading."
Dong Dong——
The drums started playing again, causing the surrounding area to gradually become quiet.
"Ning Qingyan challenges Xiao Ruyi on the Tiger Leaping Ranking. She is proud of her life and death. Let's begin——!" The old voice finally appeared, which also heralded the beginning of the challenge.
Buzz——!
Before the sound could be heard, Xiao Ruyi couldn't wait and swung his sword in the air.
The energy in her body vibrated, forming a strong wind that swept towards Ning Qingyan.
"ah!"
"Use your big moves from the beginning!"
Xiao Ruyi's actions also attracted exclamations from everyone around the ring.
Just when everyone was worried about Ning Qingyan, Ning Qingyan moved.
The strong wind caused by Xiao Ruyi's Yuan Power was not painful or itchy at all for her body that had already broken through the first transformation of "Immortal and Demonic Transformation".
She took one step forward and directly broke through the wind. Xiao Ruyi was shocked and took action, directly grabbing the sword blade she was stabbing at.
The blade of the sword is wrapped in the wind and is extremely sharp.
People under the ring couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw Ning Qingyan grabbing Xiao Ruyi's sword with her bare hands. They seemed to have seen the next scene where Ning Qingyan's hands were dripping with blood.
If she was unlucky, her hand might be chopped off by the sword.
"Is Ning Qingyan so scared? She actually picked up the sword with her bare hands!" came the exclamation from the crowd.
"..."
"Seeking death!" Xiao Ruyi raised the corners of her lips coldly. She poured more energy into the sword, intending to destroy Ning Qingyan's right hand with one sword. It would be best to remove her entire right arm.
.
Xiao Ruyi's eyes were full of sternness, and she couldn't wait to see Ning Qingyan break her arm on the ring, blood spraying out, and wailing in pain.
However, when rubbing Ning Qingyan's palm, it seemed that he encountered black stone and fine iron.
Xiao Ruyi was shocked.
Bah——!
A harsh sound sounded, and almost everyone close to the ring heard it.
what's the situation?!
The blood flowing freely and the broken arms and limbs they thought they thought did not appear. Instead, there were several sounds of metal shattering, and the sword that Xiao Ruyi stabbed Ning Qingyan broke into several sections!!!
This shocking reversal left everyone stunned.
What happened?
Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't see it clearly at all!
"This is impossible!" On the stage, Xiao Ruyi's entire palm still had numbness and tingling pain.
Just now, when Ning Qingyan twisted her sword with her bare hands, the power was transmitted to the hilt of the sword, causing her entire hand to be almost broken.
If she hadn't let go quickly, more than just the sword might have been broken.
Ning Qingyan smiled at her, "There are even more impossible things."
As soon as she finished speaking, her figure rushed out. There was not a trace of energy fluctuations around her body, but she pulled out an afterimage.
Xiao Ruyi hurriedly responded, using the energy of a fourth-level martial artist to counteract it.
boom!
However, something unexpected happened to her and everyone again.
Ning Qingyan, a good-for-nothing in the eyes of others, ignored Xiao Ruyi's energy and punched her directly on the sternum.
