For some reason, Xiaoyun has not come to see Li Xiuyuan in the past two days.

Li Xiuyuan was also happy to enjoy this rare moment of tranquility. Later, out of boredom, he actually took off the sign on the door of the small courtyard and wrote in ink on it: Clouds Rise.

This is not a Taoist temple, this is your own place of practice.

After waking up that day, just after washing up and holding the breakfast brought by the palace maid, Xiaoyun's shouts came from outside the door.

"Little Taoist priest, are you still lingering here? Your Majesty has already gone to the martial arts arena. Are you asking the Emperor and your Majesty to wait for you?"

Xiaoyun ran in the door and was very rude. She pulled him and ran outside.

Li Xiuyuan had no choice but to grab the pancakes on the plate and shouted: "This emperor cannot send hungry soldiers!"

However, Li Xiuyuan had just entered the palace and had not found everything here yet, so he did not dare to be careless. He let Xiaoyun pull him forward and stuffed the pancakes in his hands into his mouth.

You can't eat pancakes in front of the civil and military ministers, right? That would probably make the envoys of the Silver Moon Kingdom laugh to death.

"Today is a martial arts competition, why did you call me?" Li Xiuyuan shouted.

Although he solved the competition with the Silver Moon Kingdom once, in his opinion, he was just a spectator in today's martial arts test, so why should he be so panicked? If he just grabbed any soldier guarding the city, his level would be higher than him.

?

"How did I know? The Queen asked me to come and take you there, so just be obedient."

Xiaoyun turned her head to look at him and replied calmly.

Li Xiuyuan was shocked and thought to himself that he would not catch me again and go up to kill that person from the Silver Moon Kingdom? If that was the case, it would be better to stay in the military camp with Overlord Chen.

On the night when he moved into the palace, Overlord Chen moved Li Xiuyuan's few luggage over.

The two chatted for a long time, and Bawang Chen brought him a lot of food. He said that there were many rules in the palace and he was afraid that he would be hungry at night.

"Hurry up, little Taoist priest, don't keep me waiting." Xiaoyun said loudly, without slowing down her feet.

The two of them ran towards the martial arts arena one after the other. Xiaoyun despised Li Xiuyuan while running, saying that he knew there was something big going on today but didn't know how to get up early.

Li Xiuyuan thought to himself: On Luoxia Mountain, I slept until I woke up naturally every day.

The martial arts arena was already crowded with people. Even the city guards from the Tianfeng Kingdom got the news and came to cheer up their companions who were about to take part in the competition.

"Hurry up, Xiaoyun!" At this moment, Queen Changsun's voice came to Li Xiuyuan's ears.

Looking up, I saw King Qin and the Queen already sitting in the stands, and the Queen was waving to Xiaoyun.

"Your Majesty, this guy is very lazy. When I passed by, he was still eating, as if he was starving to death."

Standing behind the Queen, Xiaoyun whispered back.

Li Xiuyuan, who stood looking at the above, took a closer look. The envoys from the Silver Moon Kingdom still brought the same people as before, but behind the monk Yuanzhen there was a young monk who looked much older than himself.

"Mother, they won't send that young monk out, will they?" Li Xiuyuan saw something was wrong and thought that this young monk would not appear on the martial arts field for no reason. After all, there was no one around for the literary test that day.

Queen Changsun was in a good mood and said with a smile, "What are you afraid of? If they send the young monk to fight, I will send you to give you a chance to make meritorious deeds again."

When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he couldn't help but take two steps back, wondering how he could sting and fight with others? At most, he had fought wild beasts in the mountains.

"Stand still, don't be afraid!" Empress Changsun felt the fear in Li Xiuyuan's heart and comforted her.

Li Xiuyuan smiled bitterly, turned his head and glanced at Xiaoyun, thinking that this was really not a good idea.

While waiting, Li Xiuyuan was bored and glanced around. He couldn't help but smacked his lips. The lineup was too huge. The surroundings of the martial arts arena were crowded with soldiers from the Tianfeng Kingdom.

If you send yourself to fight, if you can't defeat the opponent, you probably won't be able to get out of here without the Queen's intervention.

"Excuse me, King Qin, can the competition proceed?" The envoy from the Silver Moon Kingdom stood up and said to King Qin in the stands.

King Qin glanced at Queen Changsun beside him and replied calmly, "Let's start somewhere. I wonder who you will send out to participate in the second competition today?"

The envoy of Silver Moon Kingdom nodded, looked at a group of ministers from Tianfeng Kingdom, and said with a faint smile: "We are just competing, so naturally we cannot hurt the harmony between each other. We will send disciples of Master Yuanzhen to build

Based on the seventh level of cultivation."

Hearing these words, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but let out a "thump" in his heart. Do you want to be so deceptive? Do you know that I am only at the third level of foundation building, so you found a seventh level person to disgust me?

Li Xiuyuan quietly raised his head and glanced at the Queen and King Qin in front of him, then at the ministers present, and then saw the annoying and proud face of the Silver Moon Kingdom envoy, and he probably understood what was going on.

If you can't find a suitable candidate, you will definitely suffer a loss in this game.

"Is there any member of the Qing family who has come out to fight?" Although King Qin did not call Li Xiuyuan to come out, Li Xiuyuan had already seen Empress Fa Changsun's malicious smile.

King Qin asked again with a sullen face.

Li Xiuyuan lowered his head and looked at his nose and heart, thinking that you can't see me, you can't see me.

However, how can a group of ministers in the stands respond to the challenge? Not to mention that their cultivation levels are not at the same level, even if they reluctantly take action, it will be embarrassing and lose their identity?

The other party just sent a young monk and devoured the Tianfeng Kingdom to death.

The King of Qin and the Queen had calculated everything, but they did not expect that the other party would only send a young monk with the lowest cultivation level to participate in this competition.

Not a single minister made a sound in the huge stands. A group of courtiers stared blankly at King Qin, waiting for him to make up his mind. Emperor Chun looked back at Emperor Changsun.

The queen was chatting with Xiaoyun. When she saw King Qin looking at her, she couldn't help blurting out: "Is there any other choice? I have brought everyone here for you."

After speaking, he looked back at Li Xiuyuan, who was bowing his head in thought.

Li Xiuyuan pretended not to see it, but Xiaoyun couldn't help but poke him.

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Li Xiuyuan had no choice but to step forward and reply: "Go back to the emperor, my queen, that one doesn't know how to fight?"

The queen glared at him and said with a smile: "Didn't you see what the other party said? No harm, what are you afraid of? After winning this battle, just tell the emperor what you want."

Qin Wuyi was stunned and took a careful look at Queen Changsun.

"That's right, don't worry and go to the competition. As long as you win this game, I will satisfy your request whatever you want."

Li Xiuyuan thought to himself, I want to leave Tianfeng Kingdom, will you agree?

Although he was unhappy in his heart, he couldn't help him now that he was under the roof.

When the Silver Moon Kingdom saw that King Qin had sent Li Xiuyuan out again, he couldn't help but said: "King Qin, are you looking down on our Silver Moon Kingdom? We sent you a cultivator of the seventh level of foundation building, but you actually found a third level cultivator.

"

King Qin looked at him and smiled and said: "There is no way, haven't you seen that all those ministers have a cultivation level of Jindan or above? We can't use the big to bully the small, right?"

The envoy of the Silver Moon Kingdom was stunned, thinking that this was also the case.

Speaking of which, now that both sides had chosen candidates, the envoy of the Silver Moon Kingdom stood on the stage and loudly read out the rules for the second round of competition.

"The rules for the second round are very simple. Each side has one person with their own bows and arrows... The target is two hundred feet away. Whichever side has more arrows in it will be the winner!"

When the Queen and Emperor Qin heard this, they couldn't help but look back at Li Xiuyuan, who looked thin, and asked softly: "How? Do you want to find you a bow and arrow?"

Li Xiuyuan shook his head, looked at the two of them and replied, "I'll give it a try."

Empress Changsun's heart skipped a beat and she thought to herself, "You can't mess up. Is this a competition between countries?"

But King Qin understood and looked at Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile: "Go ahead and compete, don't be afraid!"

Li Xiuyuan stepped forward to salute Qin Wu and the Queen with fists, and then quietly took out his bow and arrows. Fortunately, he took the master's wooden bow with him before going down the mountain, otherwise it would be weird if he temporarily changed to a bow and arrows at this time.

.

When the queen saw Li Xiuyuan taking out the wooden bow, she shut her mouth. Even she didn't expect that this humble little Taoist priest actually carried a bow and arrows with him.

After walking down the stand, Li Xiuyuan walked to the arrow position on the martial arts field. After the two sides sent people to look after each other and the bows and arrows, Li Xiuyuan saw clearly that the other side used arrows made of black unknown wood, while he was the simplest.

of bamboo arrows.

The Silver Moon Kingdom envoy in the stands saw that both sides had experienced weapons, and shouted loudly: "Let's get started. Let's finish the competition early and let's go drink and celebrate."

"Young monk Wuwu, please tell me what your last name is." The young monk in front of Li Xiuyuan took the initiative to greet him.

Li Xiuyuan was startled, then he cupped his hands and replied: "I am Li Xiuyuan, from Yunqi Taoist Temple in Luoxia Mountain."

"Which one comes first, the young monk or the young gentleman..." The selfless young monk looked at Li Xiuyuan with a smile.

Li Xiuyuan looked around and saw only an arrow target two hundred feet away. He wondered what the difference between this and the other was. Isn't it just a comparison between the arrows shot by both sides...

"Let's go together, I'm in a hurry, I haven't had breakfast yet!" Li Xiuyuan looked at Wuhebu Xiaoshang and said with a smile.

"That's fine, then the young monk will show his disgrace!"

I didn't see the monk Wu-Se putting up any kind of posture, holding the iron bow and aiming at the target in front of him, drawing the bow and drawing the arrow. In just two breaths, a black feather arrow flew out.

Li Xiuyuan was stunned, thinking that the other party was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and this battle was more difficult than memorizing scriptures himself.

Taking a deep breath, without waiting for the selfless little monk to shoot the second arrow, he quickly drew the bow and set the arrow. Hearing a soft sound of "Buzz!", the string rang and the arrow flew away. It hit the target two hundred feet away.

Fly away.

Two hundred feet is not a short distance. Before the final results came out, the ministers in the stands with good eyesight could not see the target of the arrow that was two hundred feet away.

Not to mention them, even monk Wuhe and Li Xiuyuan couldn't see clearly.

"Well done, I didn't expect the young gentleman's archery skills to be so exquisite! It seems Wuwo has met his match!"

The selfless little monk said to Tiansheng with a smile, but his hands were not idle, and he heard another "buzz!" sound. A black arrow shot out again, piercing the morning air, making a whooshing sound.

Li Xiuyuan would not be content to lag behind, so he also shot an arrow.

For a moment, the ministers in the stands held their breath, and King Qin and the Queen also watched quietly without making a sound.
