If you break my skin, I will kill you! Yun Shan raised her lips, as if she was confident about the results of the assessment. She is a master of holding Qi underwater, and there is no one in their escort agency, or even in their county.

Can compare to her.

Even her senior brother Yunlei is not half as good as her.

Therefore, she has such a confident attitude and is definitely not arrogant or arrogant.

Shao Qi and Yun Lei exchanged a look. Finally, Shao Qi's eyes fell on Han Xueyan behind their team.

Han Xueyan not only didn't have any kung fu, but she couldn't even swim, let alone hold her Qigong. She looked a little tangled looking at the basin of water in front of her, thinking to herself, if she won the first place, she would be able to meet her soon.

My sister Han Ling greeted me.

When Sun Bailing was not paying attention, Cao Dan looked at Sun Bailing steadily. There was no calmness in his eyes. Instead, his eyes became deeper and deeper. Slowly, they became a little sad and a smile that mocked him.

She did it, really did it - became the top pick.

Then, he should fulfill his original promise, help her superiors, and convince his father to collude with them...rebellion!

When Sun Bailing looked over, he immediately looked away, but it was a little late, and he was still caught by her calm and wise eyes. She looked at him, and there was no sadness in her eyes. Just because the mission was difficult, she had to deal with him in this way.

Get along with him!

When the Second Prince ascends to the throne of God, she can legitimately be with him.

However, it is still unknown when the second prince will ascend the throne.

Shao Qi secretly looked at Tang Lin's side face and thought that it would be a good idea to take advantage of Tang Lin's weaknesses to eliminate her. She was too strong on the ground.

, it must be a crisis with unpredictable consequences.

Since Tang Lin is afraid of water, she will definitely lose tomorrow's underwater competition, and will also die because of it. It doesn't matter.

Although she is an out-and-out master, as long as she helps Yu Shengjun with things, she is Shao Qi's enemy.

Lu Yitang looked at everyone calmly and asked in a loud voice: "Everyone, are you ready?"

"Master Lu!" Tang Lin raised her hand and asked again, "What is the test?" Then, her expression changed, and her aura when asking the question suddenly weakened, "A small question, can I withdraw from the test on my own?

"

"No!" was what Sun Bailing replied. She looked at Tang Lin seriously and reminded: "The emperor said that starting from the fourth round of competition, all remaining contestants must undergo a pre-match assessment. If anyone does not participate,

All will be disqualified from the competition. In fact, there are benefits to having an assessment competition. This is an opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity provided by the emperor. As long as you win first place in the pre-competition assessment, you can ask the emperor to do it for you.

Just one thing, it doesn’t matter if you don’t get first place, you can still participate in tomorrow’s competition, but you won’t have an extra chance!”

Lu Yitang took the words, with the temptation of full marks, "Think about it, if you can get first place in the pre-competition assessment, then you can directly ask the emperor to appoint you as an imperial guard, and you will also need to participate in future competitions.

?”

People's hearts began to waver, and several people discussed among themselves whether they should try their best to perform later.

Seeing that these people were tempted, Lu Yitang's lips curved into a satisfied smile.

In fact, for him, he didn't know anything about the pre-competition assessment before going to court this morning. But in the court hall this morning, the emperor suddenly asked the two counselors to personally supervise the exam.

Because a pre-match assessment competition has been added to provide players with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As long as they win the first place, they can make a request. No matter what the request is, the first place winner can be satisfied.

Tang Lin's face was full of frustration, and she complained softly: "You know that I am not good at this type of assessment event, but you still have to do it. Doesn't this mean you want to eliminate me in the fourth round? At least put the water-related competition items at the end.

Noodles, it’s true!”

Dong Chenchen held back his laughter and whispered to Tang Lin: "Oh, boss, please stop complaining. I don't understand water-based things either. It just so happens that I'm at the bottom."

Lu Yitang ignored the complaints of the two people. He looked at everyone and asked sternly: "Everyone, are you ready?"

Everyone replied in unison: "Ready!"

Lu Yitang said: "I have given the order, you start to put your face into the water. You must immerse your face in the basin and soak it. The process will be monitored by the imperial guards. If anyone cuts corners, he will be thrown out of the palace immediately and will never be allowed to enter again.

The Imperial Palace is participating in the Ouchi Guards Selection Competition. From the moment I give the order, you begin to hold your breath underwater. This test will test your ability to hold your breath underwater. Whoever persists to the end before leaving the water basin will be the first place.

Already."

"Let's begin, sir!" Yunshan was already impatient and couldn't wait to show off.

Du Yuanyuan also felt his blood boiling at this moment. The thought of easily defeating Tang Lin made him feel happy just thinking about it.

Lu Yitang looked at a group of imperial guards who were already standing behind the contestants and shouted: "All the imperial guards will listen to the order and get into position immediately!" He gave the command, and immediately the imperial guards came to stand beside the contestants in an orderly manner.

Tang Lin took advantage of the chaos and tampered with the basin. She took something off the tie that bound her hair.

In less than a moment, more than a hundred forest guards were standing beside the players. Beside each player, there was a guard. These guards were responsible for supervising the competition process of the players. If anyone was found

If you cheat, find it out immediately.

Lu Yitang glanced at the scene and saw that all the imperial guards were in place. He and Sun Bailing looked at each other, then he said nothing while Sun Bailing looked towards a corner.

There is already a table set up in a certain corner, with an incense bowl on the table and incense sticks on the bowl.

Sun Bailing ordered the imperial guard standing behind the table, "Start the incense lighting timer!"

Soon, the incense stick on the incense bowl, which was used to worship Buddha, was lit.

Lu Yitang glanced at the Zhuxiang, then faced the crowd, his face tightened, and he gave an order: "All contestants, please obey the order. I am announcing that the fourth round of pre-match assessment has officially begun!"

Immediately after he gave the order, all the contestants buried their heads in the full basin of water and started holding their breath to compete.

After the competition started, the Imperial Guards began to watch every move of the players intently, in case anyone secretly surfaced to take a breath before continuing to soak in the water.

Han Xueyan was the last one to bury her head in the water, but was the first to leave the basin. She suddenly raised her head from the basin, and immediately, the water droplets on her bangs on her forehead were thrown to the floor by her, and then

, breathing heavily.

The other contestants were all martial arts masters. They were very good at both land and underwater abilities. Therefore, they did not leave the water basin so quickly. In order to be first, everyone exerted themselves to the limit.

Lu Yitang gave the guard who was monitoring Han Xueyan's performance a look. The guard understood and immediately picked up Han Xueyan, who had not yet responded, and dragged him out of the team, "Let's go and stay in the corner!"

Han Xueyan was forced to be dragged out of the team, and ended up squatting not far behind Lu Yitang.

Han Xueyan was sulking, angry at herself for not living up to expectations; at the same time, she was looking at Shao Qi intently, feeling so nervous that she couldn't breathe. She twisted her fingers together and kept shouting in her heart: "Brother-in-law, come on! Come on!"

After a while, some people gave up holding their breath, just to get a breath of fresh air. And these people were cleared out of the team by the Imperial Forest Army.

Lu Yitang once again counted the number of people who were still holding their breath. When his eyes fell on Tang Lin, he was very surprised. He was about to marvel, but Sun Bailing spoke his heart, "Didn't she say she was afraid of water?"

"Yes!" Lu Yitang was really puzzled and shocked. "But this..."

Sun Bailing thought of a possibility, "Perhaps her Qi-holding skills are better than those of other contestants. It's just that Deputy Commander Yifeng's requirements were too high last night, so her underwater Qi-holding skills were not recognized?"

Lu Yitang breathed a sigh of relief, "That should be the case. Otherwise, how can we explain her situation now? Is this done by a person who doesn't know how to hold back qigong?"

"Let's take a look at the situation!" Apart from that, Sun Bailing said nothing more and continued to monitor the situation.

In fact, none of them knew that Tang Lin didn't take any assessment at all last night, but... she just stayed in Yu Shengjun's bath for a long time.

Next, another group of contestants with weak Qigong skills were eliminated. At the scene, there were less than fifty people left.

Soon, Dong Chenchen and Mei Chun'er, who were originally very optimistic about their Qi-holding skills, raised their heads at the same time. Just like Han Xueyan, the water droplets on their faces and hair splashed many places around them.

Mei Chun'er took a deep breath, "Huh, I can finally breathe!"

After calming down, Dong Chenchen looked behind him, then at his side, and suddenly stared in horror! Shock! This boss can actually hold back better than her! Is this a person who can't even fight in a pond?

She just didn't allow her to look at Tang Lin for a few seconds before she was dragged up by the guard. The guard said harshly: "You have to look at the front and don't delay other contestants here!" In this way, she and Mei Chun'er were carried to Han Xueyan.

Beside those players.

Then, when the incense stick was halfway through burning, two or three more people fell by the water basin because they had held it in for too long. They were immediately dragged away from the team by the imperial guards, and they were rescued on the spot by pressing the acupuncture points on the people.

There were bubbles coming out of the water basins of the other contestants, but there was not a single bubble in Tang Lin's water basin. This made the guard who was supervising her look puzzled.

In order to get the first place, some contestants drank the water in the basin one by one, and their stomachs were bloated. Not only did they not persist until the end, but they found it difficult to hold a full stomach.

of water and started to gag.

Finally, these people were eliminated by the Royal Forest Army.

Lu Yitang didn't need to count the number of people this time. He could tell how many contestants there were at a glance.

"Thirty one, thirty...two." Mei Chun'er pointed, and when she pointed to Yuxin, Yuxin couldn't bear it anymore and came out of the water. Her face was completely pale, without any blood at all, as if

White paper.

Before Yuxin was brought to her side, Mei Chun'er and Dong Chenchen ran over. They took Yuxin from the Royal Forest Army, brought Yuxin to the place where they originally stayed, and then laid Yuxin down on the ground.

.

Because she worked too hard, Yu Xin's vitality was greatly damaged. At this moment, in addition to desperately replenishing her energy, she still replenished her energy.

Mei Chun'er caressed her chest, with distressed eyes, and encouraged: "Yuxin, you have to hold on, don't risk your life like this, do you hear me?"

Yuxin nodded weakly, then slowly closed her eyes, and her breathing gradually began to stabilize.

Dong Chenchen looked forward and continued to watch the competition. Unexpectedly, except for Tang Lin and Du Yuanyuan, all the female contestants could not hold on, including Yun Shan, who always thought she was excellent at holding qigong. At this moment, the contestants still competing,

There are less than twenty-five, which is pitifully few.

Tang Lin's hands were on the ground, and her waterproof watch was always on her wrist. At this moment, the sleeves did not cover her wrist and were exposed. The time displayed on the watch was 9:00.

When the session started, she looked at her watch. It was only 8:40. Now, minutes have passed.

Tang Lin's bulging face was buried in the basin, her gloomy eyes moved around, her mouth was kept closed, as if she was holding something in her mouth, so that one corner of her lips was sunken.

When she couldn't hear Lu Yitang's voice announcing the end of the competition, she knew that there were still contestants persisting. She didn't expect that these people who knew martial arts in ancient times were surprisingly good at holding their qi. If she hadn't used some tricks, she might have

Be the first to lose.

Half a stick of incense has passed.

At this moment, there are only a dozen players left who are continuing to compete.

Sun Bailing looked at the incense stick, and then at Cao Dan, with a look of worry and anxiety on his face. Half the incense stick had already passed. If he wasn't a person with strong internal strength, he wouldn't be able to hold on to half the incense stick. Shen Dan would risk his life.
