Chapter 28: Mo Wentian's First Battle

"Everyone, since the founding of the Chu State, we have not been invaded by foreign enemies, nor have we been bullied by others. For decades, the country has been peaceful and the people are safe. What we rely on is not how wise and powerful I am, nor the constant blessings of our ancestors. What we really rely on is everyone.

A people’s love for this country!”

This sentence alone caused all the ordinary people outside the martial arts arena to burst into loud cheers. Mo Wentian looked at the emperor's sincere face from a distance, feeling a little surprised in his heart.

Because of his encounter with Chu Bing and Li Yuanji in the palace, Mo Wentian already knew that this aloof emperor had acquiesced in Li Yuanji's treacherous behavior. If he was in the same family, he would be criticized by thousands of people wherever he was placed.

, but the emperor did not show any expression and was even willing to promise his daughter to Li Yuanji, which made Mo Wentian full of disgust towards him.

So now when he heard the emperor's first words, Mo Wentian immediately felt that the other party was really not simple.

In fact, in such a continent where martial arts is respected, who can sit on the secular throne is a fool?

"However, it is not enough just to have the love that all of you have for the country. Our country of Chu is just a third-class small country, but we have allowed powerful enemies that have been around us for decades not to even step into our territory. What is the basis for this?"

?”

Having said this, the Emperor of Chu's voice rose in vain, with awe and respect in his voice, and he looked at everyone in the martial arts arena with burning eyes.

"The reason is every warrior standing in front of us at this moment! It is their strength that intimidate Xiao Xiao, and it is their hands that protect us!"

As soon as these words were said, louder cheers erupted from the field. Even the warriors in the martial arts arena showed pride. Even Li Yuanji and Xiao Xiao looked away and nodded, as if they were proud of the emperor's wishes.

This sentence was very useful. Seeing this scene, Mo Wentian's eyes narrowed slightly.

"He is indeed a character!"

"Today, the Young Heroes Association is reopened after twenty years, just to let these young heroes get the glory they deserve! Please remember their appearance, because in the future, they will become the heroes of our Chu country.

Be the pillar of support and the patron saint of each of you!"

If Mo Wentian hadn't seen Emperor Chu's true face a long time ago, perhaps he would have been deceived by his words at this moment. Even so, Mo Wentian also secretly admired in his heart that this emperor was conquering people's hearts.

In this aspect, it is indeed quite capable.

Just a few simple words have already heated up the atmosphere inside and outside the martial arts arena to the highest point, and most of the young warriors' faces glowed red and were faintly excited. It can be foreseen that for a long time in the future, they will

There will be a supreme sense of belonging to Chu State.

Satisfied with the enthusiastic response on the field, the emperor's smile became more cordial. He stretched out his hands and pressed them down gently to signal everyone to be quiet, and then slowly announced the start of the competition.

"Then, the Young Heroes Association will officially begin, and the preliminary rules will be announced below!"

After saying this, the old emperor gave a slight greeting to the other four people on both sides, and returned to sit on the gorgeous golden throne behind him, with the smile on his face not diminishing at all.

"The ones on your Majesty's left are Li Zi, the prime minister of the dynasty, and Chu Yunfei, the general who governs the country. The two on the right are Cang Hai, the commander of the imperial guard, and our current crown prince!"

When the emperor announced the start of the competition, the girl next to Mo Wentian quickly introduced him to Mo Wentian. Mo Wentian frowned and looked at the noble prince. He always felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't think of anything.

Where have I seen this person before?

However, such a lineup is enough to show the importance Chu State attaches to this Young Heroes Meeting. The spectators on the high platform almost represent the entire collection of secular power in Chu State.

At this moment, a man in official uniform, holding a bright yellow scroll in his hand, walked up to the high platform, stood at the front of the high platform, and slowly unfolded the scroll in his hand.

"Young Heroes Association, the first preliminary round, there are 160 contestants in total. The rules of the preliminary round are that according to the number of cards in hand, each group of five people will have a melee on the ring, and the winner will advance to the next round!

"

Mo Wentian also knew the rules of the preliminary round for the first time. After listening to it, he sighed in his heart. Sure enough, there still needs to be a certain amount of luck involved. 128 people were eliminated in the first round of the preliminary round, and only 32 people could advance. If Li

Yuan Ji was assigned to a group with Xiao Xiao in the first round, which was impressive.

Just as Mo Wentian was thinking about it, a soft little hand suddenly placed on Mo Wentian's palm. To his surprise, Mo Wentian suddenly felt that the unknown girl had actually stuffed a wooden sign into his palm.

In the palm of your hand!

"This is!"

Mo Wentian opened his palm and saw that it was the competition number plate he also owned, but this one had a big 27 written on it.

"Quick! Give me your number plate!"

Mo Wentian was startled and immediately understood that Chu Chen must have known the rules of the preliminary round of the competition, and he may have secretly arranged for his close associates to participate in it. If there are five people with consecutive numbers, one person can be promoted to the next round.

!

Looking at the numbers on the number plate, Mo Wentian knew that this wooden sign must have been an arrangement made by Chu Chen before he knew him. However, under just a casual relationship, Chu Chen actually handed over such an opportunity.

It was given to Mo Wentian! Mo Wentian's heart trembled, and he felt that deep inside his heart, he was severely touched.

"Why are you still standing there, trust me! No. 26 and No. 28 are both Mr. Chu's people!"

At this time, there were many people and Mo Wentian couldn't refuse. He took out his number plate from his arms and gently handed it into the girl's hand.

"But when I received my license plate, I registered it."

"Don't worry, Mr. Chu has already made arrangements!"

After the girl said this, she held Mo Wentian's number plate tightly in her hand with lightning speed, and waved her hand towards Mo Wentian, indicating that he didn't need to worry.

"Thanks!"

Mo Wentian is not a pedantic person, and the purpose of his competition is not to prove himself, but to target Li Yuanji. If with the help of Chu Chen, Mo Wentian's plan can increase the chance of winning even a little bit,

Of course he would not refuse. However, after learning that the opponents in the ring were not all Chu Chen's people, Mo Wentian breathed a sigh of relief.

Being able to achieve this step is obviously enough. If it is as Mo Wentian guessed, the five people on the stage are all "his own people", it will undoubtedly make Mo Wentian feel a little afraid of Chu Chen's energy.

.

"You don't have to thank me. If you want to thank me, just thank Mr. Chu!"

After saying this, the girl smiled and left Mo Wentian without leaving a trace. Until the end, Mo Wentian was not able to learn her name, which was a bit regretful. It seemed that she could only find out her name after the game.

Okay, please ask.

In the martial arts arena, there are a total of six competition stages, which means that at the same time, six preliminary rounds will be held, which also greatly shortens the time of the entire competition. According to the number plate in Mo Wentian's hand now, it happens to be

Will fight in the first game!

As the man in official attire announced the rules of the preliminary round, everyone's eyes immediately focused on the six competition stages. Facing the huge cheers, the warriors who got the first 30 number plates had already

They all walked towards the competition stage.

Mo Wentian took a deep breath, tightened the cloth belt wrapped around the broken knife behind him, took out the ordinary long knife from his waist with his backhand, and walked towards the No. 6 competition stage step by step, with a burning light erupting in his eyes.

Mo Wentian was the last one to arrive at the No. 6 competition stage. Before he went on stage, there was someone waiting under the stage with a pamphlet in his hand. When he saw Mo Wentian's appearance, he showed a professional smile.

"Please show your number plate."

Mo Wentian raised the number plate slightly, and after seeing the numbers on it clearly, the man asked again out of habit.

"Mo Yun, a casual cultivator, right?"

Until this moment, Mo Wentian felt relieved. Chu Chen had indeed arranged everything and nodded. The man made a "please" gesture. Mo Wentian stepped forward and landed steadily on the competition stage.

superior.

With a quick glance, Mo Wentian quickly observed that the other four people on the same stage as him were extremely average in strength and were all at the fourth level of body tempering. If the unknown girl hadn't mentioned it before, Mo Wentian would have

Wentian probably thought that these four people were arranged by Chu Chen.

Among the four people, there were two young warriors. When Mo Wentian just jumped onto the competition stage, they nodded to him in a subtle way. Mo Wentian understood that these two people were "one of his own". At that moment,

He hugged his fists and greeted the four people on the stage.

As for the other two people, one of them had a long face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and had the aura of a charlatan. Seeing Mo Wentian cupping his fists, he hurriedly returned the favor with a knife.

"Yuanhua, please give me some advice!"

This person did not report to the sect, and Mo Wentian arrived late and did not hear this person's review before taking the stage. Perhaps this Yuanhua was a real casual cultivator, so he had no sect to report to.

Zou looked a bit young, but he still had an unruly expression. When he saw Mo Wentian saluting, he let out a cold snort.

"Tch, rogue cultivators are rogue cultivators. They can't even afford a good knife, yet they dare to come up and embarrass themselves! No wonder they wear a mask. They are quite self-aware!"

Hearing this, Mo Wentian raised his eyebrows and shook his head slightly. Only the two "own men" could understand this action. It was obvious that in the next battle, Mo Wentian wanted to take action personally.

Deal with this person and hope they don't interfere.

"Oh? May I ask which major sect this brother is a disciple of?"

Mo Wentian sneered in his heart, if it weren't for dealing with Li Yuanji, with the name of Xiaoyao Sect, which sect would not be timid before fighting?

"Don't get too close to me. I'm not your brother. As for the sect I belong to, you don't deserve to know!"

This young man's words were thorny, but he felt a sense of vigilance in his heart. As soon as he came up, he was targeted by this person everywhere, and everyone was about the same strength. If the other person was not a fool, then he must have something.

Purpose!

Mo Wentian tilted his head slightly, and looked at the other three people in the stand again. He suddenly thought of a possibility. When he looked at the unruly young man's eyes again, there was something different. The only thing that remained unchanged was the depth of his eyes.

That slight chill in the place.
Chapter completed!
