C1529 Wei Yan

When everyone was on the battling platform, the eunuch took out eight metal balls and said to the people on the battling platform, "Later, I will throw these iron balls to you. If any of you can snatch the iron balls, then you can choose anyone on the fighting stage to be your opponent."

At this moment, not only them, but the other three regions were experiencing the same thing.

"In the past, it was basically drawing lots. But this time, they are actually stealing the metal balls. This is truly something new to them."

When they heard this, everyone started discussing.

Even Emperor Wu Xuanran, who was above them, revealed a trace of a smile and said, "This method is rather interesting."

"This is the way the First Prince thought of." One of the eunuchs by Wu Xuanran's side said immediately.

"Oh, did Anbang think of it?" Wu Xuanran could not help but nod his head in approval.

How could he have known that Wu Anbang had his own plans for doing this, that is, to deal with Lin Long?

"Alright, young masters, be careful!"

On Lin Long's stage, after the eunuch said these words, he immediately threw the metal ball in his hand towards them.

Seeing him throw out these metal balls, Lin Long couldn't help but frown, because the other party seemed to be throwing the balls casually, but there was no one who threw the balls in his direction.

'Could it be … '

Lin Long could not help but recall what Lin Guanghan had said before.

Very quickly, the eight iron balls were all caught in the hands of the eight people.

"Alright, you guys can choose your opponents now." The eunuch replied immediately.

With that, a youth stood up, "Does anyone mind if I go first?"

"Young Master Wei can be said to be the strongest amongst us, so of course we wouldn't mind." When they heard the youth say this, the other seven people also followed suit.

As for Lin Long, he looked towards Young Master Wei. Just now, he saw very clearly that one of the eunuchs was intentionally throwing a metal ball towards this youth.

If I guessed right, his opponent would be me, Lin Long thought.

Sure enough, the moment he thought of that, Young Master Wei looked at him and pointed arrogantly at him. "Eunuch Ao, this young master will choose him!"

"Alright!" Eunuch Ao immediately nodded, and then asked, "Can I place your match in the first round?"

"This is even better." That Young Master Wei immediately laughed.

Eunuch Ao looked towards Lin Long and asked, "What about you?"

"No problem." Lin Long nodded.

"If that's the case, then the rest will continue to choose." Eunuch Ao immediately said.

"Eunuch Ao, may I ask you a question?" Someone suddenly said.

"What problem?"

"Can I choose someone who can also steal the iron balls?" the man asked.

"Of course."

Hearing this, that person immediately pointed at the other person holding the metal ball.

"Alright, young masters, please continue." Eunuch Ao's voice sounded at the right time.

"Young Master Tang, why are you so unlucky to be chosen by that Young Master Wei?" Yan Sheng, who was at Lin Long's side, could not help but be worried for Lin Long.

"Maybe he doesn't like me." Lin Long smiled indifferently.

"The sword technique this person is proficient in is a upper Huang grade Windward Sword Technique. When he uses this sword technique, it is as unpredictable as a cool breeze. You must be careful." Yan Sheng continued.

"Yes, thank you very much Young Master Yan." Lin Long nodded.

Soon, the eight men had chosen their opponents, and then Eunuch Ao told them to step down from the stage first, before throwing out the iron balls for the remaining candidates.

At this time, Lin Long could see clearly that Elder Ao was no longer acting as he had before.

Obviously, he was targeting earlier, Lin Long frowned and said.

However, no matter what, he would not worry. After all, with his current strength, even Wu Anbang would not be his opponent.

Before long, everyone had chosen their opponents.

Then, Eunuch Ao shouted, "Please come on stage, Young Master Wei and Young Master Tang!"

As he said this, that Young Master Wei immediately jumped up and proudly looked at everyone.

As for Lin Long, he jumped up to the stage.

At this moment, the Seventh Princess who was sweeping his gaze in Lin Long's direction immediately frowned. She did not understand how Lin Long could have met such a troublesome opponent in the first round.

In a short moment, she was worried for Lin Long. She had hoped that Lin Long would kill to the very end, so she naturally didn't want him to meet such a strong opponent so early on.

Could it be that Big Brother or Lin Guanghan had purposely arranged it? When she thought of those metal balls, he immediately had such a thought.

Immediately, she walked directly in front of Wu Anbang.

"Little sister, why are you staring at your big brother like that?" Being stared at by the Seventh Princess in such a manner caused Wu Anbang to feel a little scared.

"Big brother, tell me, wasn't it you who came up with the idea of snatching this metal ball to choose your opponent in order to find someone to deal with my personal bodyguards?" The Seventh Princess said coldly.

"Sister, how could I, your brother, do such a thing?" Wu Anbang hurriedly said.

"If I find evidence, you're dead meat!" Seventh Princess said angrily.

"I really don't have any." Wu Anbang said, how could he admit it?

In his heart, he silently cursed. If not for the fact that Imperial Father and Queen Mother doted on you, this prince would not have given you this much face.

Seeing that Wu Anbang was not admitting, Seventh Princess walked to the side of Sun Gonggong behind him, then possessed his body and said something to him. After a while, Sun Gonggong left the place and headed towards the martial stage where Lin Long was.

After that, the Seventh Princess's eyes were all focused on the stage.

"Alright, let the match begin!" On the battling platform, seeing the two standing properly, Eunuch Ao immediately took a step back.

"Brat, let's see how you'll withstand the first round with Wei Yan's attack!" Below the other stage, Lin Guanghan who was on the stage said proudly.

After the names of the groups were out, he immediately looked for the few strong people in the same group as Lin Long and had them teach Lin Long a lesson during the competition.

Knowing that Lin Guanghan was backing the First Prince, and that Lin Guanghan had promised them benefits, these people naturally agreed.

Seeing Wei Yan, who had a middle stage Level three martial artist and could also use the Imperial Wind Sword Technique, being the first to step forward, he was naturally happy. In his opinion, Lin Long was definitely not a match for Wei Yan.

Wei Yan did not immediately take action, but suddenly said: "Eunuch Ao, can I have a word with Tang Li?"

"Of course." Eunuch Ao nodded, then said, "However, you can't make a move during this time."

"Please rest assured, Eunuch Ao." Wei Yan laughed.

With that, his body suddenly moved, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived beside Lin Long.

"Wei Buyi, if there's anything you want to say, just say it out loud." Lin Long said lightly.

"Haha, this is a secret between the two of us, there's no need." After saying that, Wei Yan bent down and whispered something into Lin Long's ear.

What was Wei Yan doing? Everyone at the scene was puzzled by this action.

"Tang Li, do you know why I chose you as my opponent?" Wei Yan replied.

"I know." Lin Long nodded.

"You know?" Wei Yan was puzzled.

"It was Lin Guanghan who called you here, right?" Lin Long said lightly.

"Since you know, then I might as well tell you the truth. It was Young Master Lin who sent me to deal with you. Young Master Lin wants me to tell you that you must know your own worth at such a young age." Wei Yan Han said.

"Is that so? Then I must tell you something as well." Lin Long could not help but smile.

"What do you mean?"

"The dog has to choose the right person, or else when the dog's leg is broken, I don't even know." Lin Long laughed.

"Brat, you're courting death!" Wei Yan was instantly enraged, he even wanted to raise his fist and smash it towards Lin Long.

Eunuch Ao, who was at the side, quickly said, "Young Master Wei, you can't do this!"

Hearing Eunuch Ao's words, Wei Yan withdrew her fist and said coldly, "Kid, I will definitely break your leg in a moment!"

Wei Yan moved her body as she spoke and immediately withdrew a couple of meters.

"Alright, the duel can now begin!" Eunuch Ao immediately said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Yan, who had been unable to hold back any longer, immediately rushed towards Lin Long. As soon as she approached Lin Long, the longsword in his hand immediately attacked Lin Long.

With this move, he immediately used his Wind Controlling Sword technique. In that instant, the sword moves he used immediately became as light as a feather, causing others to be unable to determine the direction in which he would attack.

"As expected of the Wind Controlling Sword skill!"

"It really is like a cool breeze, causing people to be unable to figure out its direction. If it was me, I wouldn't even know how to respond!"

"This Tang Li will definitely lose!"

The moment the Wind Controlling Sword skill was used, such praises immediately sounded out from below the stage.

However, just when everyone thought that Lin Long would definitely be injured by Wei Yan's sword strike, the rune sword in Lin Long's hand pointed forward, and with a "clang" sound, Wei Yan, who was holding onto the rune sword, retreated with a thump.

"This can't be true, right? How did he see through such an unfathomable sword move?"

For a moment, everyone below the stage was shocked.

Wei Yan was naturally also surprised. He originally thought that he could defeat Lin Long with his Wind Controlling Sword Technique, but who would have thought that it would actually be seen through by Lin Long.

How could he have known that such a sword technique was extremely slow in Lin Long's eyes? Lin Long's Imperial Sword Technique was many times more difficult to understand than the Imperial Secret Sword Technique, thus he was able to easily see through the flaws in his opponent's sword technique.2

"Again!" After she shouted, Wei Yan once again struck towards Lin Long.

And this time, his sword moves were obviously even more erratic, and not only that, the attacking sword Qis were also clearly stronger.

"Be careful!" Seeing this situation, the Seventh Princess in front of the hall was shocked.

Tang Li was just a guard, how could he get Seventh Princess to care so much about him?

Seeing the Seventh Princess in such a state, the people around her could not help but think this way in their hearts.

Wu Xuanran and the empress were currently a little far from the Seventh Princess, otherwise they would have to ask what was going on.
