Lei Zhen's halberd strike could be said to be an astonishing technique, shocking everyone present.
Silence! The entire military arena was completely silent, everyone stared at Lei Zhen who was on the stage with widened eyes, and almost forgot to breathe. Even Tang Yin, who was extremely calm, was moved by this, and used an unrefined weapon to bend the spirit weapon. Even he was unable to do so, because other than requiring astonishing strength, he also needed to have an extremely deep level of Spiritual Martial Cultivation.
This person was powerful! Tang Yin stared blankly for a good while before regaining his senses. At this time, he suddenly realized that he had unknowingly stood up, took a deep breath, and slowly sat back down. At the same time, he clapped three times, and praised: "Alright!"
His voice also caused Qiu Zhen and Xu Zimo on both sides to react. Xu Zi was extremely excited as he quickly walked to the side of the stage and shouted downwards, "Lei Zhen wins ? ?"
Boom ? ? Following his shout, the military arena erupted, shouts, applause, and sounds of weapons hitting shields rang continuously. Looking at the excited looks of the crowd, it seemed like they were even more excited than the victorious Lei Zhen.
Although Zhang Tong had lost, he was convinced of his defeat. The difference in strength between him and Lei Zhen was just too great, and the latter might not even have used thirty percent of his abilities. He sat on the ground and shook his head as he sighed. He had never seen an expert like Lei Zhen before.
Seeing that he did not get up for a long time, Lei Zhen thought that he had injured him. He anxiously dismounted and walked over to Zhang Tong, asking in concern: "Brother Zhang, how are you injured?"
Although Lei Zhen won, there was no arrogance on his face, which moved Zhang Tong. He quickly stood up, rubbed his numb hands together, and bowed: "Thank you brother Lei for showing mercy, I am not injured."
Ah!" "That's good." Hearing that he was fine, Lei Zhen heaved a sigh of relief, took a step back and cupped his hands in return.
Seeing this, the cheers became even louder.
On the stage, Qiu Zhen revealed a smile, he bent down and asked: "Great King, what do you think of Lei Zhen?"
"Inborn divine strength, profound cultivation." Tang Yin muttered: "Even if I'm not as good as you, I'm not too far away."
"If this person can assist the King, wouldn't the King be like adding wings to a tiger?" and Lei Zhen is enough to wipe out all the strong enemies on the battlefield! " Qiu Zhen's eyes lit up.
"That's right!" Tang Yin sighed, turned and said: "But you heard it yourself, he did not want to join the army."
"Back then, I didn't even think of letting you go, but in the end, wasn't it still taken in by the King for my own use?" Qiu Zhen said with a stern expression: "The King has an astonishing attraction, and will unknowingly make people want to follow him. As long as we keep Lei Zhen here, I believe that he will be willing to help the King in the near future."
"Why don't I think so?" Tang Yin was overjoyed, Qiu Zhen did not praise him very much, so when these words came out of Qiu Zhen's mouth, he was extremely carefree. After thinking for a moment, he said with indifference, "Like I said, if he wants to stay, he can stay. If he wants to leave, he can leave. I won't force him. "Since you've joined the army, you must go all out. If you've changed your mind, it's fine."
Qiu Zhen wanted to say more, but seeing that Tang Yin's eyes were emitting gold light, he knew that he did not care about his talent, but was not confident in his ability to keep Lei Zhen, which was why he said that deliberately.
The following matches were Zhou Chang versus Li Sheng, Zhan Peng versus Wei Xuan, Zhang Cheng versus Kong Yan, versus Lu Song versus Tian Jia, Ye Tang versus Gao Yu. After the five matches ended, the victors were Zhou Chang, Wei Xuan, Kong Yan, Tian Jia, and Ye Tang.
By the time they reached the last group, which was in other words the match between Tao Yuanfeng and Nan Ye, it was already close to evening.
Xu Zimo suggested to Tang Yin that it was already too late, they would compete again tomorrow. Tang Yin thought for a moment, then said: "No need, today will be the end of the first round. I think, this round shouldn't take too much time."
On the list, Nan Ye and Lei Zhen were the same, there was no indication of their cultivation, and since Lei Zhen could win so easily, then Nan Ye would not be far off.
But this time he was wrong.
Nan Ye's appearance was far different from Lei Zhen's. He was born into a wealthy family and one could tell that he had never done heavy and rough work before. He was white and refined, with a medium build, thin and weak, as if he could be blown away by the wind.
If only looking at his appearance, no one would link him with the Spirit Cultivator.
When he appeared, all the people around him burst out laughing. They already knew that this was the last match of the day, and seeing Nan Ye like this, many of the soldiers were not even interested, they guessed that he would not even be able to last three rounds before he was dismounted. If not for Tang Yin, everyone would have left the stage in groups.
But what surprised everyone was that Nan Ye and Tao Yuanfeng's competition was extremely intense, the two of them were covered in spirit armor and holding onto spirit weapons, they fought back and forth, and the battle was extremely intense. Unknowingly, the two of them had already battled for a total of fifty rounds without a clear victor. The next battle went on for another hundred rounds, with neither side winning.
Everyone's initial curiosity slowly turned into helplessness. If the two continued to fight like this, who knew how long they would have to fight.
Tang Yin who was on the stage was also frowning, the sky was getting darker, was he going to drag things out until the midnight?
When the two of them had fought for one hundred and fifty rounds, a change finally occurred. Tao Yuanfeng's war horse was exhausted, it fell to the ground, spitting white foam at the mouth, it was unable to stand up again, and at the same time, Nan Ye was still sitting on the horse. According to the agreement, the one who fell was considered to be the loser, and in that case, Nan Ye would win.
It could be said that Nan Ye's victory was akin to tiring the opponent to death, and what was tiring was not Tao Yuanfeng, but his warhorse. There were no applause or cheers at Nan Ye's victory. There was only laughter and mockery.
No matter what, the whole day's competition had finally ended, and the final victors were Chen Xiu, Lei Zhen, Zhou Chang, Zhou Chang, Wei Xuan, Kong Yan, Kong Yan, Tian Jia, Ye Tang and Nan Ye who everyone believed to be the victor.
Tang Yin instructed Qiu Zhen to properly entertain these sixteen Spiritual Martial Expert s, whether they win or lose, they must be treated equally, and take them in for their own use as much as possible.
Qiu Zhen nodded his head repeatedly in agreement. Actually, Tang Yin did not have to explain all of this, he would naturally do it. After all, even the eight people who lost were rarely seen Spiritual Martial Expert.
After leaving the camp, Tang Yin and Qiu Zhen returned to the city together. On the way back to the city, Qiu Zhen shook his head and said, "Originally, this humble subject had high expectations for Nan Ye.
"You don't think too much." Tang Yin was half lying on the carriage, he yawned and spoke lazily: "Nan Ye did not use his full strength, and wanted to drag it out, so this competition is not worth watching."
"Huh?" Qiu Zhen was shocked, for a spirit weapon, he was completely an outsider. He asked, "How does the King know?"
Tang Yin shrugged and said: "It's purely a feeling." Pausing for a moment, he continued faintly, "Maybe it's because he doesn't have the same nervousness and excitement as when he meets a powerful opponent in battle!"
Emotions? Could this even be considered a reason? Qiu Zhen shook his head in confusion, but since Tang Yin had said so, then there must be a reason.
After entering the city, Qiu Zhen stopped the carriage. He said to Tang Yin: "My King, I will arrange an empty house for the sixteen people to stay in. They will only live in the Tavern, which is not enough for us to treat each other politely."
"Hm!" It made sense. "Make sure everything is well arranged."
"Yes!" "Great King."
"Right, look and see if you can find a bigger house in the vicinity of the palace. Let Guo Tong pass by." Tang Yin suddenly remembered something that Guo Tong asked of him.
Qiu Zhen was startled, and asked: "Why does the King want to help him?"
Tang Yin laughed, and said: "You also need someone to speak up for us in the Imperial City!"
Qiu Zhen understood immediately, and nodded his head: "Ok, King, I will arrange this matter."
Tang Yin laughed and said: "Guo Tong has been around for many years and has a strong family background. This time, he brought a lot of them with him when he escaped, so there's no need to be too courteous to him."
"This subject understands," Qiu Zhen replied with a smile.
After bidding farewell to Qiu Zhen, Tang Yin returned to his own Duke Palace. Before they could even enter the gate, they saw Le Tian coming over on horseback.
When he was in front of Tang Yin, Le Tian jumped down from his horse, cupped his hands, and greeted: "Great King!"
"What's the matter?" Tang Yin asked.
"Oh ?" Le Tian looked around and did not say a word.
Seeing that, Tang Yin knew that what Le Tian said was not simple, he walked towards the residence and said: "Follow me to the study room!"
"Yes!" "Great King!"
Tang Yin brought Le Tian into the study room. Just as he sat down, his stomach started to thump, and he waved to a maid to prepare some food for him to take to the study room. The maid replied and turned away. He then turned to Le Tian and asked, "What is it?"
"It's about the head of the Hedong County, Master Wang Wang Kai."
"What happened to him?"
"Your Majesty, do you still remember that when your Majesty's Hedong was assassinated, the weapons used by the assassins were the crossbows of our army. During this period of time, the subordinates that I left behind in the Hedong have been investigating this matter." Le Tian looked at Tang Yin and saw that he was serious, he continued: "I have already determined that the crossbows used by the assassins were all from Wang Kai's hands."
Tang Yin clenched his fists, his eyes narrowed, and his killing intent rose. He had not treated Wang Kai unfairly, bestowing him the title of the head of a county, yet he had repaid himself in such a way. He was silent for a while before he asked, "Isn't there a strict regulation on armaments in our army? How did Wang Kai get the crossbows? How did Du Qing become a County Lieutenant?
Le Tian nervously replied, "Great King, our soldiers are not used to the weather, malaria is endemic in the army. Wang Kai often used visiting soldiers as an excuse to enter the army.
"Damn him!" Tang Yin was originally sitting cross-legged, but at this moment, he kicked the table in front of him in anger.
Le Tian was startled and he kneeled to the ground. "Please calm your anger, Great King. Wang Kai is truly hateful, the King can send people to secretly arrest this thief and take him back to the capital.2
Tang Yin took a deep breath, closed his eyes and pondered for a while. In the end, he shook his head and said, "No! Right now, our Hedong have only just stabilized. If we capture Wang Kai, I'm afraid it will cause trouble, so we cannot take this risk right now. "
