Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Yang Guang once again held a banquet in the Imperial City and invited many candidates to attend the banquet. At the same time, the location of the Joust For A Spouse was also set at this time.
Yang Guang sat on the main seat and waved his hand to stop everyone from worshipping him. He casually said,"Today, our Great Sui's talents have gathered here. It is truly the country's great fortune. I want to enjoy the happiness of the people, so I will drink first as a form of respect.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Putting down his wine cup, Yang Guang glanced at the Turkic envoy seated on his right and couldn't help but smile."Miss Nalan, are you used to your days in the capital?”
Nalan immediately felt a surge of anger. The scene of Yang Guang calling out to him in the hall a few days ago surfaced in his mind again.
"Thank you for your trouble, Your Majesty. I am very satisfied with your hospitality!”
Nalan deliberately emphasized the word 'this emissary' in an attempt to remind Yang Guang of her identity, but it did not have any effect, making her even angrier.
If she were in the desert, even if the Great Khan of the Eastern Turks dared to tease her like this, Nalan would not hesitate to rebuke or even attack. However, she was now in the capital of the Great Sui Dynasty, and at the same time, she had an important mission on her shoulders. No matter what, she could not allow herself to go beyond the rules. She could only suppress the greatest anger she had ever encountered in her life into her heart.
"Prince Tuli, you don't have to worry about anything when you attack later. It's fine even if you accidentally kill him!”
Nalan's eyes revealed a fierce light.
Tuli was stunned at first, then nodded and said,""Understood."
Yang Guang, who was on the high platform, saw Nalan's actions clearly. He made eye contact with Tuli without leaving a trace and revealed a knowing smile.
He had used words to tease Nalan time and time again. Naturally, it was not for the sake of gaining the advantage of words. His true purpose was to disturb Nalan's mind so that it would be easier for the red-whisked woman who was disguised as Tuli to make a move.
After all, Nalan's martial arts cultivation had reached the grandmaster realm, and he was very familiar with Tuli's martial arts. Although the Red Horntail Girl's Formless Demon Technique could simulate any martial arts that he had seen before, it was inevitable that Nalan would see through it.
If Nalan became flustered because of his words, the possibility of the red-whisked woman being exposed would naturally be greatly reduced. This was Yang Guang's true goal.
Taking a sip of the sake in his cup, Yang Guang revealed an imperceptible smile. Just by looking at Nalan's beautiful face that was slightly angry, he knew that his psychological attack had worked.
After the singing and dancing ended, the banquet soon entered the most exciting and tense moment of the martial arts competition.
"I am Tuli, and I am willing to be the first Ring Lord. Anyone who wants to challenge me can come up and give it a try!”
Yang Guang had just announced the start of the final battle when Tuli was the first to step out at Nalan's request. He bowed in all directions, displaying the demeanor of an expert.
When they saw that the Ring Master of the first round was Tuli, the young elites sitting on the left and right all revealed hesitant expressions. However, they were not too timid.
After all, Tuli's matches in the last few days were getting worse and worse. It was obvious that something had gone wrong with his cultivation or that he was not feeling well. Although he was still fierce and domineering, he no longer had the overwhelming deterrence of a fatal blow.
Not all of the candidates present were here for the sake of Princess Ji Du. A few of them just wanted to use this platform to show off their martial arts, hoping to gain the favor of a certain dignitary and fight for a good future. Therefore, they did not care much about winning or losing.
After a moment of silence, a young man in a light blue chivalrous robe jumped to the center of the hall. He first bowed respectfully to Yang Guang, then turned to Tuli and said,"I am Wang Zicheng, a disciple of Qingjiang in Henan Province. I am willing to learn from the Turkic prince.”
"Please."
Tuli first put on a polite posture, but Wang Zicheng did not stand on ceremony either. He directly raised his sword and attacked.
When the two sides were five steps apart, Tuli still stood firm and did not move until the sword was less than three inches away from him before he suddenly attacked.
He turned sideways, stepped forward, and punched!
A few simple movements were completed smoothly. The accompanying officials in the hall only felt their vision blur. When they regained their senses, the disciple of Qingjiang Sect had already vomited blood and fell three meters away.
"Thank you!"
Tuli Gupo cupped his hands in a calm manner, as if he had just done something trivial.
Nalan's lips curled into a proud smile. The martial arts of the Frontier had always been fierce and fierce, not to mention that Tuli was an overwhelming Xiantian expert.
Even if he had just broken through to the Xiantian realm, he was far from what these Postnatal realm trash could compare to. The gap between the two was simply insurmountable!
Li Shi Min, who was sitting on the other side, was extremely calm. When he saw Tu Li send his fifth opponent flying, he couldn't help but say to Pang Yu,"It's almost your turn. Tuli will deliberately give you a weakness. You just need to fight with all your might.”
Pang Yu nodded and stood up without saying a word. He was the favorite to win the championship in this martial arts competition, second only to Tuli. Seeing him appear, the remaining people consciously retreated.
"I am Pang Yu."
"Tuli!"
The eyes of the two extremely talented martial arts experts collided, and they attacked each other at the same time.
"So strong. Is this the strength of a Connate Realm expert?”
Pang Yu was secretly shocked. He could feel that Tuli was trying his best to suppress his cultivation base, but even so, every time the fist and palm collided, he still felt a sharp pain in his thumb and forefinger.
"Good opportunity!"
Pang Yu saw that Tuli's middle door was wide open and knew that this was the opportunity left for him. He immediately activated the Flowing Water Palm without hesitation, bringing with it a violent force as he brazenly attacked Tuli's defenseless left shoulder.
"What?!"
Pang Yu's eyes widened before the palm could reach him.
Tuli's movements suddenly doubled in speed, and his muscular right fist mercilessly smashed towards Pang Yu's heart.
"Boom!"
A loud explosion sounded in the middle of the hall. Tuli and Pang Yu were sent flying at the same time. The crisp sound of bones cracking could be heard clearly.
After retreating seven or eight steps, Tuli barely managed to stabilize his body. He first hugged his left shoulder with his right hand, then knelt on one knee and said,"I didn't have time to stop in a hurry. Please forgive me, Emperor of Great Sui!”
Li Shi Min stared blankly at Pang Yu, who was lying in a pool of blood, and muttered,""How is this possible…How is this possible…Zhangsun Wuji…How dare you bully me like this!”# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:011720192:32PM
