Guan Jiyu knew that due to his health, he had been in poor condition since arriving at the concentration camp. He had taken medicine and rested, so he hurriedly seized the last two days. Except for eating and sleeping, he spent the rest of the time practicing hard on the school field.
.
Finally, before the final test came, she had practiced in line with her inner standards.
The rule of the last assessment is that lots are drawn on the spot and divided into two groups. That is to say, no one knows who their opponent will be before the lots are placed.
After the elimination of the first two duels, there are now only fourteen people standing on the field.
Zhe Shu looked at the remaining disciples next to him and said to Jingcun: "Good guy, look over there. There are a total of fourteen people, eight of them are from the Beizhong family camp. Sure enough, the main force of our court is still
It's in Beizhong."
Jingcun did not agree with what he said and said: "Strength does not depend on the number of people. Although it is not easy for all four of us to enter the final round, look at the teams in the capital. There is only one person from the Tianyu camp, and the Lanze camp will stay."
He Lanlan. To be fair, I think the people from the capital team will be more outstanding this time. If we draw them, it will be even more difficult."
Zhe Shu wiped the sword in his hand and said, "Just be careful later. I don't believe it. They are the only ones who can excel. Can't we Nanqin's excel?"
"The last assessment is about to begin. Please place your weapons in the bamboo baskets on the west side of the school field." A soldier preached in the center of the field.
Xiang Lincheng was sitting far away on the main stage, and his expression could not be seen clearly. He could only see him talking to the soldiers beside him, and not long after, someone came on the stage and presented the bamboo sticks that had been prepared.
The rules he made are also new. According to the fourteen people standing side by side on the field, starting from the first person, every other person will line up in order, and the seven people in the line will be represented to draw lots.
They stood in the queue at will. There was nothing wrong with Xiang Lincheng's arrangement, and there were no loopholes that could be discussed as fair or unfair. He looked at the seven people listed and ordered the attendants beside him: "Get rid of these seven people."
A person’s signature.”
The soldiers in charge of the field heard the order and announced loudly: "Remove Zhe Shu from Qingziying, Guan Jiyu from Qingziying, Zheng Qi from Beiqiying, Zheng Jun from Beiqiying, He Yunshou from Beiqiying, and Li Xiao from Beiqiying.
Lanzeying Helanlan."
The lots in the bamboo tube were carefully selected and taken away, and they had to draw the remaining seven lots in person. Whether the opponent they faced was strong or weak was decided by the single lot in their hand.
While Zheshu reached out to draw lots, he whispered to Guan Jiyu: "That's great, Ayu. He Lanlan also came up to draw lots. This means that you and I will definitely not compete with him. Just now I was worried about what might happen.
If I team up with him, it will be difficult."
He took the bamboo stick in his hand and rubbed it, then moved his fingers to look, but his face was not very clear.
"The one I drew is He Yunqi from Beiqi Camp! Tsk, tut, I saw him beat his opponent to pieces in the last assessment. Let's wait for a duel. What about you, Ayu? Who did you draw?
?”
Zhe Shu leaned over and looked at the bamboo stick in Guan Jiyu's hand. What was written on it was - Zhou Baisong of Beiqiying.
This opponent is not difficult for Guan Jiyu. Now she has fought against all the remaining people on the field. She already knows the strength of the opponent. But her face is full of nervousness at this time, and she can't help but look to the side.
He Lanlan, who was about to draw lots, looked over.
The four people who came up from Beiqi Camp hadn't drawn yet. He Lanlan looked at the bamboo sticks in the tube and took one at random.
She saw He Lanlan first glance at the lottery in his hand, and then look at the people waiting behind him. Looking along his line of sight, Guan Jiyu found that his eyes were pointed directly at the person at the end of the queue.
East side - where Qingziying stands!
Then a playful smile flashed across He Lanlan's face, and he handed the signature in his hand to the soldier who was inspecting it.
Guan Jiyu became even more nervous. She didn't know what the expression on He Lanlan's face meant. From the direction he looked in, she concluded that He Lanlan must have drawn someone from Qingziying.
So, did He Lanlan draw Jiang Yingnian or Jingcun?
The soldier who announced the groupings began to answer her questions: "The groups have been decided, one group: Zheshu of Qingzi Camp, He Yunqi of Beiqi Camp; the second group: Zheng Jun of Beiqi Camp, Feng Tian of Tianyu Camp; the third group:
Guan Jiyu from Qingzi camp, Zhou Baisong from Beiqi camp; four groups: Li Xiao from Beiqi camp, Yushan from Beiqi camp."
"These four groups, go to the south school field to compete!"
The soldier who read out continued: "One group in the north camp: He Yunshou from Beiqi Camp, Qi Yu from Beiqi Camp; two groups: Zheng Qi from Beiqi Camp, Jingcun from Qingzi Camp; three groups: He Lanlan from Lanze Camp,
Qingzi Yingjiang Yingnian."
Lan Zeying Helanlan Dui Qingzi Ying Jiang Yingnian.
When Guan Jiyu heard this sentence, the big stone that was weighing on his heart finally fell.
This was her most ideal grouping. It was difficult for others to say, but she concluded that He Lanlan's military strength must be superior to Jiang Yingnian. Jiang Yingnian would definitely lose to He Lanlan, and everything would finally be as she expected.
, realized one by one.
As the team leader led them away from the home court and on the way to the competition venue, Guan Jiyu suddenly felt relaxed.
This is a duel without weapons, and the winner is flexibility in moves.
Zheshu was in the first group. Year-round training at the Qingzi Camp and his outstanding talent gave him solid kung fu, and the duel was quickly over in a short time.
Zhe Shu's first victory made Guan Jiyu feel more at ease. Her evasion was as smooth as silky rain, and her attacks were as menacing as a tornado. She had full control of every move. Every time her opponent attacked, she was in the right direction.
It's as if they were predicted in advance, and they can be easily avoided or resisted without any effort.
Her victory was not just about winning, but also winning beautifully. While watching, the examiner in the field silently graded each student who participated in the duel.
After the duel ended, Guan Jiyu said to Zhe Shu easily: "Let's go over and see what's going on over there at Jingcun?"
At this time, only Jingcun is left. If he wins successfully, everything will be fine, and they will be able to live up to the hard time they spent arriving in Beizhong this time.
When Guan Jiyu and Zhe Shu left the south school field and walked around the courtyard to the main school field in the middle, Jingcun was already standing there, but Jiang Yingnian was nowhere to be seen.
Jingcun explained: "The third young master and He Lanlan are the last group. Logically speaking, it should be over by now. Why haven't they come out yet?"
"That's right." Zhe Shu looked to the north and said, "But the third young master is also unlucky, and he was beaten by He Lan Lan. How can he be He Lan Lan's opponent? Eh? But this is strange.
With He Lanlan's skill, shouldn't he win the duel early and come out early?"
As soon as Zheshu finished speaking, Jingcun shouted: "Come out, come out!"
Guan Jiyu looked over again and saw that Jiang Yingnian had already walked out from the north. He was walking behind He Lanlan, his steps were neither hasty nor slow, and there was no sign of anger on his face.
Zhe Shu whispered: "What should we do, Ayu? There are only four of us from Nanqin. If all three of us win the duel, we will naturally join the army under General Xiang of Beizhong. Right now, only the Third Young Master has lost."
Now, do you think he will lose face and get angry?"
Jiang Yingnian walked closer and closer to the main school field. Zhe Shu said nervously: "He's coming, he's coming! You can see from his expression that he must have lost to He Lanlan. He is feeling unhappy right now.
Woolen cloth!"
Jingcun scolded in a low voice: "Stop talking, be careful when you speak later."
Facing Jiang Yingnian who was walking over, Jingcun said respectfully: "Third Young Master, are you done with the competition?"
Jiang Yingnian glanced at the three of them and responded: "Yeah."
Guan Jiyu looked at Jiang Yingnian's slightly tired look and remembered that a few days ago, he had asked Xiang Lincheng to disqualify him for selfish reasons. The current grouping put him in the same group as He Lanlan. Although he was selected by lot,
But Guan Jiyu is not sure whether this is a coincidence or because of something else?
For a moment, she actually felt that she owed him something.
Guan Jiyu did not dare to ask any more questions and stood silently in the team, waiting for Xiang Lincheng's final verdict on the assessment.
Xiang Lincheng stood up from the main stage, holding a final roster in his hand, and walked to the front of the queue.
He first clasped his fists at the fourteen people on the field and said: "Right now, our border is in urgent need of consuls and generals, so we set up this selection to recruit talents for the border military camp. Regardless of the long distances, everyone came from all over the country to the Beizhong General Mansion Concentration Camp to participate in the war.
I really admire this spirit in assessment and selection.”
Xiang Lincheng looked at the roster in his hand again and continued: "What makes Xiang most gratified is that the people trained by the major aristocratic families are getting stronger and stronger. It is not difficult for us to find out in this selection
, the camp that cultivates the reserve army is no longer limited to the Beizhong area, there are many outstanding people in the capital and Nanqin teams."
Having said this, everyone looked at Guan Jiyu in unison.
A hint of appreciation flashed in Xiang Lincheng's eyes, and he said: "I will send the final list of this assessment to General Xiang at the border of Beizhong for review immediately. The general will know the strength of each of you in advance so that it can be convenient
You will be assigned corresponding positions in the follow-up army. Now I will announce the final rankings: seventh place, Qi Yu of Beiqi Camp; sixth place, Feng Tian of Tianyu Camp; fifth place, Yu Shan of Beiqi Camp;
Four of them, Qingziying respectfully preserves them."
Only the top three on the list were left. Guan Jiyu no longer cared whether she was ranked first. As long as she could successfully enter the military camp under General Xiang, she would be extremely satisfied.
Xiang Lincheng read out: "The third person is Qingziying Zheshu; the second person is Lanzeying Helanlan——"
As soon as Xiang Lincheng finished speaking, Zhe Shu turned around excitedly and wanted to open his mouth to congratulate Guan Jiyu on being ranked first.
"The person who is ranked second is Jiang Yingnian of Qingziying." Xiang Lincheng continued to read: "The person who is ranked first is Guan Jiyu of Qingziying! In this assessment, eight people were finally admitted."
The moment Jiang Yingnian's name came out of his mouth, Guan Jiyu thought for a moment that she had heard it wrong. She had never been so shocked. She stood there blankly for a long time before she came back to her senses.
Shu obviously did not expect this unexpected result, and looked at Xiang Lincheng with a puzzled expression.
"Eight people? Sir Xiang, didn't we say that there were two duels, and there were seven people left in the end? Why were there eight people in the end?" Yu Shan from Beiqi Camp couldn't help but ask.
Everyone began to discuss this result.
"For no reason, just because the duel between Lanzeying's He Lanlan and Qingziying's Jiang Yingnian ended in a tie. Based on your overall ratings, we can only rank these two as second." Xiang Lincheng explained.
Guan Jiyu's mind went blank. She still couldn't accept the result. Her lips were pale and she asked Jiang Yingnian standing next to her: "Why didn't I hear you say you won just now?"
Jiang Yingnian looked innocent and spread his hands: "The problem is that I didn't win at all. Didn't you listen to what he said? We are tied. No one wins and no one loses."
He raised his eyebrows and asked strangely: "Guan Jiyu, what's your expression? You don't think I can't win the duel, do you? Do you think I'm bad in your heart?"
