The meticulous Zhangsun Wuji thought to himself.
"Even if His Majesty wants to confer the title of General of the Flying Cavalry, the person who should be considered the most is not Lu Chen, but Cheng Yaojin and the other old generals.”
"If we're talking about the merits of saving His Majesty, Cheng Yaojin has saved him many times before.”
At this moment, Cheng Yaojin's thoughts were similar to Zhangsun Wuji's.
However, Cheng Yaojin had another deeper thought.
In Cheng Yaojin's eyes, Lu Chen, this little kid, was very similar to him. Moreover, he was indeed a young genius, a rare talent in the world!
However, Cheng Yaojin felt that it was inappropriate for Lu Chen to become an official at such a young age.
The imperial court was filled with schemes and factions. It was a place where people were killed without bloodshed. It was much more complicated than the battles on the battlefield.
In Cheng Yaojin's eyes, Lu Chen was too young and had little experience. It was not a big deal for him to gain the upper hand with a moment of cleverness.
However, after entering the court, it was difficult to be alone and it was very likely that he would take the wrong path.
In addition to the young emperor title, although it was glorious for a while, it was not a good thing in the long run.
However, if Lu Chen could not control himself, not only would he harm himself, but he would also implicate the Great Tang.
Thinking of this, Cheng Yaojin cupped his fists and said to Li Er.
"Your Majesty, in terms of merit, hard work, and strength, I, Old Cheng, don't think I'm inferior to this child!”
"I won't accept the title of General of the Flying Cavalry unless he defeats me, Old Cheng!”
When Zhangsun Wuji heard this, his thoughts raced as he immediately echoed.
"Your Majesty, I also think that Duke Lu is right. Your Majesty is not joking, so you naturally did not go back on your words.”
"However, the generals of the court are not convinced. The Great General of the Flying Cavalry is the one with the ability!”
"Moreover, generals are not judged by their words. If Lu Chen can defeat Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, Niu Jinda, and the other generals, it will be justified for him to become the General of the Flying Cavalry!”
To be on the safe side, Zhangsun Wuji directly dragged Yuchi Gong and Niu Jinda into the water.
Zhangsun Wuji didn't believe that Lu Chen could fight against three people alone.
If Lu Chen failed, the General of the Flying Cavalry would not be sealed, and Li Er's promise would not be broken.
It was killing two birds with one stone!
Sensing Zhangsun Wuji's intentions, Li Er shot him a look.
There was a clear line hidden in his eyes,"My beloved minister understands me!"”
Li Er immediately said,"Alright, I approve!"”
Cheng Yaojin carried Ma Su and stood face to face with Lu Chen.
The broad axe was too heavy, and since the establishment of the Tang Empire, the broad axe was almost useless, so Cheng Yaojin only carried Ma Su with him.
"Lu Chen, kid Lu, let Uncle Cheng give you a piece of advice. It's not a good thing for a young man to become a king in the long run.”
"With your strength, the most important thing is to find a military camp and train for a few years.”
"When the time and skill are up, if you still want to enter the court as an official, feel free to look for me, Old Cheng!”
Cheng Yaojin's words were indeed sincere and earnest. It also put this sudden change back on track.
Li Er also knew that Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, and the others would definitely not be ruthless to Lu Chen in the competition, so he was naturally not worried.
Therefore, Second Master Li, Zhangsun Wuji, and the Black Armored Army were all watching the show.
They felt that Cheng Yaojin and the other two old generals would definitely defeat Lu Chen!
However, Lu Chen was unhappy!
It took a lot of effort to force Li Er to agree.
Seeing that the hussars general was about to be in his hands, these people jumped out to stop him.
"Hmph, since you want to fight, I'll beat you until you admit defeat!”
Lu Chen didn't say anything. He just raised the Black Iron Cold Spear in his hand slightly and placed it behind his back. He entered combat mode and was ready to attack.
At the same time, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, and Niu Jinda also got into position and waited solemnly.
Li Er motioned for everyone to step back and leave the space.
Instantly, the atmosphere became serious. The onlookers could not help but swallow their saliva.
"I, Old Cheng, will test your capabilities first!”
With a low shout, Cheng Yaojin took the lead to attack!
Although he was old, the bloodlust and ferocity that he had honed on the battlefield did not diminish at all!
Lu Chen didn't panic at all when he faced Cheng Yaojin who was charging forward. He exerted strength from his waist and threw the Darksteel Cold Spear that weighed more than 100 pounds from behind!
"Clang!"
The sound of metal clashing rang out, deafening and numbing!
Lu Chen seemed to have rooted himself to the ground and did not move at all!
Cheng Yaojin staggered and took a step back.
" Senior Duke Lu!" Zhangsun exclaimed." Although State Duke Lu is old, his combat strength hasn't weakened much. However, he's actually at a disadvantage after this attack!"”
Even Cheng Yaojin was surprised, but he couldn't think too much about it. Lu Chen retracted his spear and stabbed forward.
The spear's radiance was bone-chilling!
Cheng Yaojin forcefully turned his body and dodged.
Lu Chen did not hesitate. He pushed his left hand forward and swept the spear horizontally!
He directly slapped Cheng Yaojin to the ground!
Then, he thrust the spear straight into the ground beside Cheng Yaojin's head.
Anyone could tell that Lu Chen was doing this on purpose.
Just now, Lu Chen had the ability to stab the tip of the spear into Cheng Yaojin's throat, but he didn't do so. Instead, he stabbed it into the soil beside him!
This meant that Cheng Yaojin was already dead in the actual battle!
This time, even Li Er gasped.
"Cheng Yaojin has fought with me for a lifetime. I know his strength!”
"However, apart from the first attack, Cheng Yaojin was completely defenseless and parried the entire attack!”
It was impossible to say that he was not shocked!
In fact, Yuchi Gong and Niu Jinda even thought that they would let Cheng Yaojin deal with Lu Chen alone and not surround a little child.
But now, it seemed that the situation had reversed.
How could he care about bullying the young and surrounding the younger generation? Go!
Yuchi Gong held the Mo Blade and charged forward.
After seeing Cheng Yaojin's encounter, he became 120% focused and attacked with all his might!
Lu Chen still stood where he was and watched as Yuchi Gong charged forward.
Lu Chen attacked with his spear!
For a moment, Yuchi Gong couldn't get close at all and could only be forced to dodge left and right in the sky full of spear shadows.
Suddenly, Lu Chen's body sank and his spear swept across, directly lashing at Yuchi Gong's calf.
"Bang!"
Yuchi Gong fell to the ground!
Suddenly, Lu Chen felt a chill on his back, and his hair stood on end. It was dangerous.
Lu Chen didn't even think about it. Without even turning his head, he thrust the hundred-pound black iron spear behind him!
It was a classic counterattack!
"Bang!"
The tip of the spear pierced through Niu Jinda's armor!
Furthermore, this charging attack directly shattered Niu Jinda's armor, causing his hair to be disheveled. His entire person was stunned on the spot!
All of this happened in a flash, and the battle was over!
Lu Chen cupped his fists and looked around.
"Are the three High Dukes still unconvinced?”
