BXBX NOVEL Chapter 509 - 509 Contest (3)
Xiao Ruoshui rolled her eyes. “You’ve finally come back to your senses? Although I know that Brother Chen is good-looking, you’ve been watching him forever.”
“So what? I want to see it for the rest of my life,” Shen Yijia interrupted her bluntly.
Yuan Yuwan looked at Shen Yijia with envy. She thought of something and explained with a red face, “Brother Xiao is the one going on stage.”
!!
“Hey, scumbag Xiao…” Shen Yijia almost blurted out the word scumbag. She quickly changed her words.” It’s Brother Xiao. ”
She called him that because she followed Xiao Ruoshui.
Shen Yijia turned around.
Alright, it was too far away to see his face clearly, but from his figure, he shouldn’t be bad-looking.
After all, Xiao Ruoshui and Xiao Ruoqian were not bad-looking. Things could not go astray when it came to the family’s son.
“Your brother doesn’t seem to be a match for the other party,” Shen Yijia said objectively.
The person competing with Xiao Qirui was a burly warrior from the Wu Kingdom. Xiao Qirui was already considered tall among the men, but the other party was a head taller than him. The meteor hammer in his hand danced majestically.
Compared to him, Xiao Qirui was like a weak chicken, forming a sharp contrast.
The reason why Shen Yijia felt that he would lose was because after more than ten moves, Xiao Qirui had been defending and retreating step by step. He was forced to the edge of the arena.
“My brother is injured.” Xiao Ruoshui gritted her teeth. Her father was really something. He clearly knew that her brother wanted to compete, but he still wanted to kill him.
Yuan Yuwan’s heart tightened. She hesitated for a moment but didn’t ask.
At this moment, warm applause suddenly erupted from the surrounding stands.
The three of them looked at the arena at the same time and saw that the Wu Kingdom’s warrior’s meteor hammer had already landed on the ground, and Xiao Qirui’s spear was pointed at his opponent’s throat.
Immediately after, the gong on the platform was rung by an official.
Another official announced loudly, “The winner is Xiao Qirui.”
Great Xia won the first round. The emperor was also in a good mood. He raised his hand and clapped. He laughed. “Reward him.”
Unlike the excitement of the Great Xia people, the expressions of the people from the Wu Kingdom were not so good. Although such a competition was called a friendly spar, everyone knew what it meant.
Shen Yijia looked at Xiao Ruoshui and then at Yuan Yuwan. What had just happened?
Xiao Ruoshui thought to herself, “I don’t know. Anyway, my brother is the best.”
Yuan Yuwan kept looking at the young man on the stage with a spear in his hand. She did not receive Shen Yijia’s gaze.
In the arena, Xiao Qirui seemed to have sensed something and looked up at the women’s seats.
They were clearly very far apart, but he still saw the girl in a lake-blue dress sitting beside Xiao Ruoshui.
Their eyes met. Yuan Yuwan quickly turned her head away, so she didn’t see the complicated expression on Xiao Qirui’s face.
Shen Yijia glanced at the two of them and frowned in deep thought.
In the following competitions, the three countries each won and lost. In total, the Xuanyuan Kingdom won the most matches.
Although the emperor felt that it was a pity, the Xuanyuan Kingdom had always been above the other two countries. It was normal for them to win in the end.
As long as his country was not at the bottom, the emperor would not feel so uncomfortable.
Actually, Great Xia had only won one match less than the Xuanyuan Kingdom.
The emperor could not help but look at the seats of the Great Xia officials on the right.
Noticing the young man sitting at the back of the officials, his eyes darkened.
If he went on stage, they would be able to get first place!
Song Jingchen noticed the gazes on him from the platform, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a mocking smile.
The emperor said a few polite words and was about to signal Eunuch Li to announce the end of the competition.
Xuanyuan Ye suddenly stood up.
“I heard that your Great Xia’s Song Jingchen’s martial arts are extraordinary. The wife he married must not be an ordinary person. I want to ask for guidance. I hope Your Majesty can fulfill my wish.”
In just a moment, she had already asked Bai Zhi to find out more about Song Jingchen’s identity.
Xuanyuan Ye did not expect that the first man she met in Great Xia was the once famous Young Master Song.
She also heard that the woman he married was just an unfavored daughter of a small official, so he looked down on her even more.
Thinking of how she had embarrassed herself just now, she naturally wanted to take this opportunity to get back at her.
As soon as she finished speaking, before the emperor could speak, Xuanyuan Ce’s face darkened and he scolded, “Nonsense!”
Xuanyuan Ziming was also dumbfounded. Why was Xuanyuan Ye walking further and further down this suicidal path?
Did she think that Shen Yijia was as soft and easy to bully as she looked?
The emperor frowned. Someone had naturally reported what had happened between Xuanyuan Ye and Song Jingchen to him.
He was used to seeing all kinds of women in the harem, so how could he not know what this young princess was thinking?
If he could marry someone from the Xuanyuan Kingdom into one of the families of Great Xia, he would naturally be more than happy to do so. However, the marriage partner definitely couldn’t be Song Jingchen!
