"Father, since the purpose is to drive out the barbarians, rather than to get promoted and make money, then why can't my daughter participate in the competition?" Ji Wennuo said tremblingly, and it was visibly that her legs were a little weak: "A normal martial arts examination is very important to others. It is a chance to bring honor to the family and to prove oneself."
"But, the meaning of this martial arts exam is different!"
"The martial arts champion selected this time is not to maintain peace in one area, but to go to the border, fight for the country, and even die for the country!"
"It's not that I think other people don't have this awareness, but I've always been rumored to be the best in the Free and Easy Realm. When the enemy army provokes me, I can only sit in the deep palace. I won't accept this!"
"Those enemy troops killed so many talented people of our Great Zhou outside Xuanmo Pass. My daughter is heartbroken!"
"My daughter also wants to contribute to the country and fight the enemy!"
"So, my daughter was afraid that the emperor would not agree, so she secretly borrowed someone else's identity and came to this arena to meet the heroes of the world."
"If I can capture the top martial arts champion, I am willing to travel to Xuanmo Pass, chop off the heads of those grassland people, and pile them up at the foot of Xuanmo Pass to comfort the souls of my Great Zhou soldiers in heaven!"
Ji Wennuo spoke more and more fluently and became more and more excited. By the end, her voice was sonorous and powerful.
It was as if she had always thought so.
I can only say that sometimes shouting slogans is indeed a way to motivate people. They motivate not only others, but also yourself.
As he spoke, Ji Wennuo almost thought that he really thought so.
After all, she was indeed said to be the most free person, and she was indeed a royal princess.
With her warlike personality, when it comes to a bloody battle on the grassland, she is really eager to try it.
Looking at Ji Wennuo's expression, the emperor secretly praised him in his heart.
This girl, what she said is good! I just don’t know who taught her that…
The son of a wealthy family should not sit in the hall. In normal ancient times, ministers were very afraid that the emperor would lead the army in person. After all, not everyone was Li Erfeng and Zhu Laoer. If a Ming Dynasty war god appeared, he would be nailed to the pillar of shame.
However, it is different for royal relatives like Ji Wennuo. If something happens to her, it will not affect the overall political situation. It will just be a bit embarrassing.
For example, when the Sixth Prince went to the frontline, few people objected. Those who opposed it thought that other princes should be replaced to gain military merit, rather than thinking that he should not go.
As expected, when the people below saw that Princess Da Zhou had such awareness, they couldn't help but stand up and look at her with admiration.
In everyone's eyes, the direct descendants of these big families and the royal relatives all cherish their lives very much. At this time, a princess stood up and concealed her identity. How much courage does it take?
Moreover, this world has another peculiarity, that is, women can also join the army and become generals.
Especially for female monks, their status is not as low as that of normal women.
"Do you really think so?" The emperor looked at Ji Wennuo silently.
"That's right!" Ji Wennuo said loudly.
"Well, you are worthy of being my Ji family's children!" The emperor said loudly: "Back then, when Taizu was about to conquer the world, those who accompanied him in the battle included the King of Zhenbei, his wife, and children. They are all my ancestors."
"Among them, Princess Pingyang shed her blood on the battlefield. When she was driving out the grassland people, she stopped the enemies from the Western Regions outside Yanmen Pass. She was a woman who was as brave as a man!"
"Since you have such a wish, your father will allow you to participate in the martial arts examination today."
"You are a member of the royal family. Even if you win, you are not qualified to be the champion of martial arts."
"If you win, the second place will get the runner-up award, and the reward for the martial arts champion will be passed down one place!"
In this way, although Ji Wennuo took up a place, he did not take up the reward, which would convince everyone.
"Thank you, father!" Ji Wennuo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his father didn't seem angry, and he almost fainted.
"Go down and rest for half an hour. It will be the final battle." The emperor's eyes were on Shen Lang: "Shen Lang!"
"I'm here!" Shen Lang stood up.
"Your opponent in the final match is the Princess of Da Zhou! Although she is from the royal family, once she is on this stage, there is no distinction between monarch and subject. I order you to use all your strength. If you hold back even a little, you will be deceiving the monarch!"
"Yes, sir!" Shen Lang responded.
Then, the emperor sent a message to Shen Lang: "Go all out and win."
"I will do my best."
After the emperor finished talking to Shen Lang, he sent a message to Ji Wennuo: "I don't know who taught you those words, now listen to me, the next game needs to be exciting, show that you have used all your strength, but you are one step short of losing to Shen Lang, understand?"
Ji Wennuo was walking down at this time. Upon hearing this, he turned back and looked at the emperor in disbelief.
The emperor is now in deep pain but cannot express it in words.
Although Ji Wennuo lost and the royal dignity was damaged, she was a woman after all, so it didn't matter if she lost.
The royal dignity does not need to be carried by a princess.
As long as the loser is not a prince, it will not be considered a real damage to the royal dignity.
Even though the status of female monks is higher than that of normal ancient women, the fact that boys are favored over girls cannot be avoided.
The key point is that only if Ji Wennuo loses can the emperor take advantage of the situation to back off, so that Ji Wennuo will not really run to the border.
It would be so much fun if she really went to the battlefield and was captured!
Although Ji Wennuo appears to be very strong, the relationship between Ji Wennuo and the emperor is that of a true father-daughter relationship, and the emperor does not want to see anything happen to Ji Wennuo at all.
Moreover, the emperor believed that she was the best in the Free and Easy Realm of the Great Zhou, but he also believed that there are always higher mountains.
It sounds good, like when a war breaks out, the royal family of the Great Zhou will rush to the front, build the Great Wall with the flesh and blood of the royal family, and protect millions of people. But when it comes down to it, who among these bigwigs really wants to let their own children go to the front?
Ok……
His son was fine, but the emperor really couldn't bear to let his daughter fight to her death.
"Father, I want to have a good fight..."
'Don't be silly!'
The emperor's voice exploded in Ji Wennuo's mind: "I will follow your lead on everything else. Do you think you can do whatever you want?"
"You must obey me on this matter!"
Ji Wennuo opened his mouth but didn't dare to say anything in resistance.
Her eyes were red and she returned to her seat, biting her lip.
Seeing this, Shen Lang rushed to the stage, picked up Wei Qianluo in a princess hug, and returned to his previous position after a few leaps.
pat!
Shen Lang placed his big hand on Wei Qianluo's back, and his true energy was continuously transferred to Wei Qianluo.
"Well……"
It didn't take long for Wei Qianluo to open his eyes.
pat...
She grabbed Shen Lang's hand and tried hard not to let her tears fall.
"Master, I lost..."
"Don't worry, Master will win it back for you." Shen Lang comforted.
"Master...she's very strong..." Wei Qianluo's lips turned pale, and it was obvious that he hadn't recovered yet: "I used Wanli Xuepiao, and I thought I was going to win, but I never expected that her explosive power was so terrifying."
"If we have the same true essence, I will definitely win, but..."
"If you lose, you lose. There is no but. Since you lost, you should practice hard and win it back in the future." Shen Lang said.
Although the royal martial arts are overbearing, if Wei Qianluo and Ji Wennuo have equal cultivation, even if Wei Qianluo is in the middle stage of the Free and Easy Realm, with the blessing of Wanli Xuepiao, he still has a chance to win.
"Hmm..." Wei Qianluo sat up straight, looking at the arena not far away with some reluctance.
I thought I could meet Shen Lang in the finals.
I never thought that I would lose to a seventeen-year-old girl.
"She is the former Princess Changning. Why did she..." Wei Qianluo opened his mouth.
"This is about the factional struggle among the princes. She is coming for me. Don't worry, now that her identity has been exposed, she won't do anything out of the ordinary in public." Shen Lang comforted him, "Besides, she may beat you, but not me."
"Master, you must win..."
Wei Qianluo didn't know why, but she instinctively disliked Ji Wennuo.
In fact, there was really no grudge between the two of them. The fight in the ring just now was simply because one of them was inferior in skills.
However, she just didn't like Ji Wennuo and felt uncomfortable.
…………
"This is the last round. Both parties please come on stage!"
Shen Lang and Ji Wennuo walked onto the stage with steady steps.
The true energy of both of them has almost recovered, but it is an indisputable fact that Shen Lang's true energy is naturally weaker than Ji Wennuo's.
Shen Lang looked at Ji Wennuo quietly, but found that Ji Wennuo looked ashen, as if he had lost all desire to live.
What's wrong with this girl? Wasn't the matter resolved just now?
"start!"
The moment the start was announced, the two of them collided directly with each other.
Crack, crack, half of Ji Wennuo's body was frozen, and then burned by a flame, and the ice was melted by her!
dang dang...
One of them used a knife and the other used a sword. The light of the knife and the sword flashed in the ring, and the two men fought evenly.
"As expected of the Seventh Princess..."
Li Chengfeng was watching from a distance in the audience, with a serious expression on his face: "Shen Lang's ice basically suffered a great loss, but in the case of the Seventh Princess, it only took a little effort."
"Well, but it seems that a lot of effort was spent. With Shen Lang's speed and strength, he can actually be on par with the princess." Lu Lingfeng said.
Everyone has witnessed Shen Lang's speed and strength.
In the early stage of Xiaoyao Realm, it can be considered as barely outstanding, but only above average.
Facing any mid-stage Xiaoyao, it is not good enough, let alone the late and perfect stages.
Ji Wennuo, that is the well-known person who has reached the perfection of the free and easy state, and he is only half a step away from being able to travel through the world.
when……
The two men clashed swords again and each took a step back.
"Your Highness, why are you giving way?"
Shen Lang frowned and looked at Ji Wennuo.
Big sister, I finally have a chance to complete a mission, so you better give it your all!
[Mission: Please fight with Ji Wennuo, the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty in her prime, and defeat her! ]
[Task Tip: Ji Wennuo has no intention to fight and has not used his full strength]
[The system knows the host's moral integrity, and must have used many despicable means to make Ji Wennuo mentally collapse]
[However, this mission cannot be done by taking shortcuts! ]
"Isn't it good to let you win? Do your best as the champion of martial arts!"
With tears in his eyes, Ji Wennuo rushed towards Shen Lang again.
dang dang...
There was another sound of metal clashing.
Shen Lang's six thunder and fire swords were already prepared behind him.
when!
The two men's swords clashed together and the two sides began to wrestle.
"This, the performance of the Seventh Princess..." Li Chengfeng frowned slightly.
"Even if you can solve Shen Lang's strange ice, Your Highness should be stronger." Lu Lingfeng said: "If I hadn't been controlled by the Thunder Fire Sword, even I could dodge the ice, let alone the Seventh Princess..."
"Yes, the princess is not as good as before."
"Isn't there a huge difference? Just now the princess was suppressing Wei Qianluo. Wei Qianluo and Shen Lang used the same skills, but she seemed to use those spells more smoothly than Shen Lang."
