Chapter 11 Mantis Catching Cicadas(1/2)
Although Liu Ruyan was a little confused, he could probably kill the top four in the competition. He was also an outstanding among the disciples of the martial arts academy, and he was definitely not a stupid person.
She had a feeling that Wu Yuan lost to her on purpose.
only.
"Why? Don't Wu Yuan want to go to Yunwu Palace?" Liu Ruyan was confused: "Besides, if he is really pretending, his strength is too terrifying."
The more she thought about it, the more shocked she became.
Recalling the last shot, what if Wu Yuan really provoked her on purpose? If they really wanted to fight, I was afraid that she could be killed in just a few or two moves!
too scary!
However, there was a lot of confusion in her heart, and Liu Ruyan's face showed no signs of change. She seemed to be only surprised, and she was glad to have won this battle.
How many people can refuse the opportunity to enter Yunwu Palace?
"Is this little girl really unaware? Or is she also a good actor?" Wu Yuan was calm in his heart, but his face was full of annoyance.
It was as if he really regretted losing this battle.
call!
Wu Yuan stood up, his face was ashen, he lowered his head and quickly walked into the waiting area. Wu Sheng and Luo He, who had been waiting for him, immediately greeted him.
"Brother Yuan, what's going on?" Wu Sheng couldn't help but ask.
"Brother Yuan, don't be discouraged. You are younger than them. It is normal to lose once." Luo He consoled him.
"It's okay." Wu Yuan shook his head and forced a smile on his face.
"Huh, Wu Yuan, I thought you were so strong, but now you see, you are going to Nanmeng Martial Academy just like us." A sarcastic voice sounded: "The one who enters Yunwu Palace this year is Senior Brother Xu!"
Everyone in the venue looked at him with suspicion.
The speaker was a martial arts disciple who was following Xu Yuanhan.
As the son of a guarding general, Xu Yuanhan himself was strong enough and had a group of followers in the martial arts academy.
Especially the children of the "Nanmeng Army" sergeants are naturally willing to follow him.
"Cheng Xiao, are you looking for a fight?" Wu Sheng glared.
Others are afraid of Xu Yuanhan, but Wu Sheng is not.
His father was a centurion of the 'City Guards', and his status was far inferior to that of the garrison general.
But the garrison and the Nanmeng Army are naturally unable to deal with them.
As the two important armed forces of the county and city, they were restrained and opposed to each other, which was deliberately maintained by the senior officials of Hengyun Sect.
"Wu Yuan, take care of your people." Xu Yuanhan suddenly spoke, his voice cold.
"Wu Sheng is my brother, not mine." Wu Yuan smiled and said: "Also, I hope you can take good care of your dogs and don't bite people randomly."
"A dog that bites should be whipped."
"Let's go." Wu Yuan strode directly towards the viewing seats reserved for martial arts disciples. Wu Sheng and Luo He looked at each other and smiled, and quickly followed.
"Call me a dog?" The martial arts disciple named Cheng Xiao seemed to have just woken up and wanted to chase after him.
"Be quiet." Xu Yuanhan frowned and said, "The decisive battle is about to begin. If you make any more noise, go to the viewing platform."
"Senior Brother Xu, I was wrong." Cheng Xiao smiled.
Xu Yuanhan looked at Wu Yuan's back in the distance and was a little confused.
Wu Yuan really accidentally lost to Liu Ruyan?
"do not care!"
"Now, the only thing stopping me from entering Yunwu Palace is Liu Ruyan." Xu Yuanhan took a deep breath.
Entering the Yunwu Palace was his desire.
Liu Ruyan? He never took it seriously.
…
"We actually lost."
‘Huan Xinyan’, who was watching the battle from a seat on one side, frowned slightly: “Liu Ruyan’s strength is pretty good, only one step behind Xu Yuanhan, but in the previous competitions, she was clearly no match for Wu Yuan.”
The outside world doesn't know much about Xiao Bi. They only think that Wu Yuan, Xu Yuanhan, and Liu Ruyan are equally powerful.
But as a martial arts teacher, Huan Xinyan witnessed the last martial arts competition with his own eyes.
Wu Yuan seemed to only have a certain advantage, but Liu Ruyan and Xu Yuanhan were actually powerless to fight back.
"Could it be that Wu Yuan lost the duel on purpose?" Huan Xinyan was a little surprised: "It's too true."
It’s not difficult to lose on purpose!
But losing just right, so that no one can see the slightest flaw, is even harder than winning directly!
Huan Xinyan was not sure that Wu Yuan lost on purpose.
..."Wu Yuan lost?" General Xu, who was sitting at the table, had a flash of surprise in his eyes.
"hehe."
But Dean Zhang smiled and said softly: "General, I said that Wu Yuan will advance and retreat. If this happens, no one can say anything."
"Yes." General Xu nodded, he understood what Dean Zhang meant.
If Wu Yuan directly gives up and does not participate in the competition, even if he has the excuse of "age", there is always a risk as long as someone reports it to the inspection team.
Being publicly defeated in a competition? And it was not defeated by Xu Yuanhan. No one had anything to say!
This is an upright plan.
"However, was Wu Yuan's loss to Liu Ruyan intentional? Could it be that Liu Ruyan deliberately cooperated?" General Xu suddenly frowned again.
As a fourth-grade expert, how vicious is his vision?
Liu Ruyan's shot that defeated Wu Yuan just now was as fast as lightning, and it didn't look like a fake in his eyes.
It's not just him.
The six masters who inspected the team found nothing unusual.
"General, if the water is clear, there will be no fish." Dean Zhang said softly.
General Xu pondered for a moment: "Okay, I understand, let's end this matter. Now, let's see Yuanhan defeat Liu Ruyan."
"Yuanhan's physical strength is extraordinary, and he has a clear advantage in strength." Dean Zhang said with confidence: "Although that girl Ruyan is not bad, she is obviously weaker."
He asked himself that he knew his disciples very well.
But only a quarter of an hour later.
"Lost!"
"Xu Yuanhan actually lost to Liu Ruyan?" Dean Zhang was extremely surprised: "How is this possible?"
General Xu's face was ashen.
Both of them were so shocked that they didn't notice it.
Not far away from them, the middle-aged man wearing a blue official robe on the central seat had an imperceptible smile on his face and murmured to himself: "Xu Shouyi, anyone can enter the Yunwu Hall, but you.
My son can’t do it!”
he.
It was Jiang Dongque, the governor of Licheng County and a third-rank official of Hengyun Sect.
"General Xu, it's a pity that Yuanhan is here." Jiang Dongque said loudly, with a hint of regret on his face, as if he really felt sorry for Xu Yuanhan.
"Thank you, Governor Jiang, for your concern." General Xu's face was cold, and he immediately stood up and left the table, followed by all the accompanying generals.
The county officials, generals and patrol team members were left behind.
"Inspector Liu is asked to give an order to the first place in the competition, and I will then give him silver." Governor Jiang said with a smile on his face.
With the Yunwu Order, you can enter the Yunwu Palace.
Five hundred taels of silver is the sect's reward.
...The many wealthy people and common people who were watching the ceremony from all sides of the arena were talking about it.
"Liu Ruyan wins!"
"She actually defeated Xu Yuanhan, and the last shot was really thrilling."
"If you win, you win! After many years, another woman from my city has finally entered the Yunwu Palace." Almost no one expected it.
Liu Ruyan, an inconspicuous little girl, unexpectedly defeated the two favorites Wu Yuan and Xu Yuanhan one after another, and won the first place in the competition.
Although there were many female martial arts experts in the Middle-earth, their natural physical disadvantages made the number of female martial arts experts relatively rare.
On one side of the arena.
"Xu Yuanhan actually lost to Liu Ruyan?" Luo He and Wu Sheng were both a little unbelievable.
