When the warrior said this, the wine table fell into silence.
That’s right!
Why? Why should Yibo Tower use all its experts? The destiny of the country is something that the emperor should consider, and it is not appropriate to impose it on Yibo Tower.
Regardless of life or death in this competition, what should we do if there are three advantages and two disadvantages?
"Well, it's too early for us to talk about this now, and we are not the owners of Yibo Tower. It is beyond our ability to guess what others think."
"That's right! Come, have a drink! Have a drink! There must be a way to reach the mountain. What you should worry about is today."
"Yes, let's have some wine! We'll just watch those top warriors compete."
Things similar to what the drinkers at this table were talking about are not isolated cases, many warriors have thought about this issue.
Although I still hope that Datang can win this competition, after all, in addition to the national destiny, the face of Datang’s martial arts is also involved.
But some things cannot be explained clearly in just a few words.
.......
The world in the Tang Dynasty was completely boiling because of the Dabi incident, and so was Tubo.
The capital, the royal palace, the meeting hall,
The leader of the country, Dezan, finished reading the message in his hand and raised the corner of his mouth coldly.
"Datang finally agreed to our request!"
"Your Majesty, the ninth-level warriors from the Khitan and Turkic countries have already set off and will arrive in our country in ten days. By then, our mission will be able to gather ten ninth-level warriors."
Hearing this, a civil servant in the main hall hurriedly bowed and stood up.
A few days ago, Tibet sent a secret message to the two countries, and the two countries quickly responded and not only sent out their strongest warriors,
Three from the Turks, two from the Khitan, plus five from Tibet, there are exactly ten people, no more, no less.
"Well, there is still more than a month before the competition, so there is still enough time!"
Dezan was in a good mood, and then looked at an old man with long eyebrows in the main hall.
"National Preceptor, are you sure?"
This old man with long eyebrows is none other than the top master of Tubo, the ninth-level peak warrior Qu He.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. This time we will definitely destroy all the ninth-level warriors in the Tang Dynasty."
After a pause, Qu He spoke very proudly.
Everyone in the world thinks that a warrior who has reached the ninth rank is the top expert. In fact, there are high and low ranks in the ninth rank, and the strongest one is at the peak of the ninth rank.
He is a ninth-grade peak warrior.
From Qu He's point of view, capturing the Longxi County of the Tang Dynasty was just an incidental thing. What he really wanted to do was to make all the top masters of the Tang Dynasty fall on the stage.
"Destroying all the ninth-level warriors of the Tang Dynasty? The Imperial Master must be careful, as the strength of the warriors of the Tang Dynasty cannot be underestimated."
On the throne, Dezan hesitated slightly after hearing this.
It's not that he doesn't want to destroy all the ninth-grade warriors in the Tang Dynasty, nor does he want to exterminate others' ambitions to destroy his own prestige, but he just talks about the matter.
"Your Majesty, I have found out that there are five ninth-grade warriors in the Tang Dynasty."
The corner of Qu He's mouth curled up.
"oh?"
"The most powerful one in the Tang Dynasty should be the bad coach. It is initially estimated that he should be in the late ninth grade. If he comes on stage, I will personally take action."
Qu He said again.
When he said this, the civil and military ministers in the main hall listened very carefully.
They really don't know much about things in Datang.
"The second-ranked person should be the Qinglian layman in Yibo Tower, a newly rising force. This person should be in the middle stage of the ninth stage, and has just stepped into the late stage of the ninth stage! A ninth-grade person sent by the Turks this time
The rank is in the late stage of the ninth rank. If the layman Qinglian comes to power, then this ninth rank Turk can kill him!"
"Ranked third is the poet saint Du Fu. This person also came from Yibo Tower. His strength is slightly inferior to that of Qinglian layman, but he can be dealt with by the top Khitan master."
"As for the remaining two, one is Yang Guoxiao, the leader of Tianyin Sect, and the other is Fengchi, the leader of Xumi Mountain.
These two people are both in the early stage of the ninth stage, and only one foot has entered the middle stage of the ninth stage. They can be solved by my two junior brothers."
"In addition to these five ninth-level masters, there are only some eighth-level peak warriors left in the Tang Dynasty. These are nothing to worry about. We can kill them by sending anyone on the field at will."
After half a stick of incense, Qu He stopped.
"But... has the Imperial Master ever thought about what to do if these ninth-level warriors don't come to the arena? I just heard what you said, there are two ninth-level warriors in that Yibo Tower. They are powerful forces in the world.
.....Not necessarily..."
In the main hall, all the civil servants nodded repeatedly after hearing this, but Dezan on the throne was thoughtful.
It is important to win the big competition, but what is more important is to know those top warriors for Tubo's next plan.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Firstly, since the competition involves national destiny, King Tang will definitely make arrangements. Secondly... I also have my own means, and I will definitely be able to force them onto the ring."
"Oh? So...everything is under the control of the Imperial Master?"
Dezan nodded slightly.
Since Qu He analyzed it in such detail, there shouldn't be any problems.
"Your Majesty, all you need to do is make arrangements to take over the troops in Longxi County. This will definitely eliminate your worries and allow me to further expand the territory of Tubo!"
"Okay! As the National Master said, Darkhan!"
"The end is here!"
"This time, you will be in charge of the mission and serve the Imperial Preceptor and his party all the way to Chang'an."
"yes!"
.......
Time flies, the sun is already heading west,
Martial arts tournaments have an inexplicable attraction for warriors, but ordinary people are not too interested in them, and they don't even have the heart to listen to such things.
Ruyang, periphery,
A carriage slowly stopped.
"Father-in-law, we are finally here!"
Xu Ning looked at the scene in front of him, turned over and jumped out of the carriage.
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yuan, Zhou Yuqing and others also followed and got off the carriage.
"Father-in-law, should we go directly to the county government now or..."
Turning around, Xu Ning asked.
They stayed at Ruyang Pass last night and asked about Li Mo's situation.
Just such an inquiry made Zhou Yuan and others surprised and happy.
Surprisingly, I didn't expect that Li Mo had a high prestige in the hearts of the people here. The reason why Ruyang became what it is now was mostly due to the support of Yibo Lou, but it was also due to Li Mo's contribution.
Fortunately, Li Mo's status in Ruyang is not low. As long as they can be accepted again, they can live a good life in Ruyang.
"Go to the county office!"
Looking at the busy restaurants and inns outside, Zhou Yuan nodded.
"Dad, Ruyang looks very nice. Look at these restaurants and inns, they are not inferior to those in Dongdu and Chang'an. Some of them are even more impressive than those in Dongdu and Chang'an."
On the side, Zhou Yuqing said with a happy face.
Along the way, what she was most worried about was that Ruyang was a poor place and she might suffer even more when she came here.
But now...there is no need to worry.
"Well, let's go and talk to the county government office... The third child should live with Li Mo in the county government office."
Zhou Yuan looked at Mrs. Zhou beside him.
This time, Zhou Yuan had already made up his mind to ask Mrs. Zhou to beg Zhou Yurou. Maybe Zhou Yurou would forgive them if she had a soft heart.
If you ask Li Mo, it's really not necessarily the case.
