Qian You couldn't help but ran to Ding Kui privately and asked: "I have told you before that the magic wand must contain a common magic spell used by magicians. I think you seem to be deliberately letting off steam today." ? ? ?? ? ”
"Is it that obvious? If he didn't release the stored magic, I would have jumped forward to Dragon Calm and then slashed out the sword light, but this just helped me, I thought no one could see it." Ding Kui had no intention of hiding this from Qianyou.
"How can people who often watch your training fail to see it? Senior Qian and Qian Chongfang can see it. Why don't you win the game?"
"Oh, it doesn't matter if my own people see it. Too many people are paying attention to me now. If this continues, there will inevitably be hidden dangers. If we provoke enemies that we can't deal with, it will not be in line with Master Rong's original intention of sending you to protect me.
There is no difference between being first and tenth. If the king trusts me, it doesn't matter even if I don't make it to the national championship. If he doesn't trust me, it won't matter if I get first. Brother, do you still care about those false reputations? ?" Ding Kui finally asked with a smile.
"I don't care about your specific ranking. I just want you to deal with those magicians. It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to see you teach them a lesson." Qian You has been following Ding Kui for a long time and is quite shady.
There were a few people who were as concerned about Ding Kui's victory or defeat as Qian You, but they more or less guessed the reason, respected Ding Kui's choice, and did not come to ask Ding Kui face to face.
The finals of the Knight Competition are still going on. On this day, the eight-to-four finals were held. Ding Kui took his family and friends to support Jiang Cao, and of course Long Tan from Tongzhou.
In the second round of the finals, except for the Dragon Calm combination versus the Yang Mian combination, the rest were level 4 combat power versus level 3 combat power. Based on the state of the previous games, there seemed to be no suspense.
In the first game, Yao Sheng's combination easily defeated Xuanyuan's combination, and Yao Sheng's combination took the lead in entering the semi-finals.
In the second strong showdown, Yang Mian took out the famous sword "Soul Eater", and after a lot of effort, he finally defeated Dragon Calm and successfully advanced to the semi-finals.
In the third game, although Shao Dianfei's combination did not continue their strong instant kill, they still defeated Jiang Cao's combination in less than ten moves, and the favorites advanced to the semi-finals.
In the fourth game, the Lu Zhi combination knew that they had no hope of defeating their opponents, so they resisted symbolically for a while, and then took the initiative to admit defeat, and the Long Shuang combination won the last top four spot.
Among the four eliminated, Long Tan ranked fifth, Jiang Cao ranked eighth, and the Zhongwangzhou players all stopped in the semi-finals. This is also in line with previous practices. In addition, Xuanyuan was judged to be better than Lu Zhi, and the two of them ranked sixth respectively. and seventh place.
After the competition, Jiang Nai, the chief steward of the Jiang Mansion, delivered a message to Duke An Guo. Jiang Cao and Jiang Yu returned to Duke An Guo's Mansion to receive their awards, and Ding Kui also had to go with them.
"Young Master Ding, I will meet you alone at the Shaohua Courtyard. Please come over." Jiang Nai said to Ding Kui immediately after entering An Guo Gong's mansion.
"Oh, please let me know, Butler Jiang." Ding Kui knew that Jiang Nai was Jiang Shunchuan's father, so he was particularly polite to him.
Arriving at the "Shaohua Courtyard", Mrs. Liang was already waiting at the door, "Young Master, come here. There is a happy event today. Come in quickly."
Happy event? I won the 10th place in the knight competition. That doesn’t count as today’s event. Do you need to go to your mother’s former residence to tell me?
Ding Kui nodded and walked into "Shaohuayuan" with doubts.
"Kui'er, come and sit down." Jiang Tong pointed to the chair he was sitting on, "I heard that you almost defeated a fourth-level combat team. To be able to do this is not an insult to 'Yue Shang'; the tenth in the country, this
It is also worthy of the ancestors of the Ding family."
"The glory that my grandson has today is inseparable from grandpa's guidance. As long as grandpa doesn't think I am embarrassed, it will be fine." Ding Kui saluted and sat down under Jiang Tong.
"You are the least worrying child I have ever seen. I heard that you have a purse that is kept close to your body. Can you give it to me?" Jiang Tong made an unexpected request.
What? You want to see my purse? Why is this for no reason? The teacher’s space ring is inside. It’s going to happen if someone finds it.
Ding Kui was very anxious, but he couldn't think of any reason to refuse.
"There is indeed such a purse, it just contains some commonly used things." Ding Kui tried hard to control his nervousness and took out the purse containing the space ring from his arms.
Jiang Tong looked at Ding Kui with a smile, showing no sign that he knew what was in his wallet.
Ding Kui held the purse in his hand, his mind racing, hesitating whether to hand it to Jiang Tong.
At this time, he picked up a round object, which was a luminous pearl.
There is no electricity in the Shenyuan Continent yet, and no one lights up electric lights. When he goes to the latrine at night, Ding Kui is reluctant to let the maid light a lamp and follow him. Since using the night pearl for lighting in the "Poisonous Fog Canyon", Ding Kui
Kui often used it as a flashlight at night, so instead of putting it in the space ring, he stuffed it in his purse.
"By the way, this is your gift to your grandson. It's so useful. My grandson carries it with him every day." Ding Kui had an idea and took the initiative to open his wallet and take out the night pearl. He handed the night pearl to Jiang Tong with his right hand.
He grabbed the purse with his left hand and put it down smoothly. At the same time, he put the little finger of his left hand into the purse and hooked the space ring.
After hearing that Ding Kui carried the luminous pearl every day, Jiang Tong stared at the luminous pearl and did not notice the small movements of Ding Kui's left hand.
"Oh? You carry it with you every day, show it to me." Jiang Tong took the night pearl, "Yes, it is exactly what I gave you, and now it comes in handy."
Don't you want to look at my pocket? What use can this bright night pearl in broad daylight be used for?
Ding Kui watched Jiang Tong playing with the luminous pearl and became even more confused.
After Jiang Tong repeatedly confirmed that the size and quality of the Luminous Pearl met the requirements, he put it into a jade box and pushed a very delicate wooden box on the table to Ding Kui, "Here, this is a token given to you, the Luminous Pearl."
I will give it to the other party on your behalf as a token of exchange."
Ding Kui took the wooden box and opened it. There was a crystal clear, bright green jade bracelet inside, "This is..."
"Kui'er, your grandpa has arranged a marriage for you. The girl is the granddaughter of the elder of the Long family of Duke Wei, and her brother is Long Tan. Your second uncle went to see her. She looks fresh and delicate, and is beautiful and fragrant.
, I am absolutely qualified to be a concubine for you.
This jade bracelet was left by the mother of the daughter of the Long family who passed away. There were originally a pair, but now one is given to you and the other is on her body. Your luminous pearl was given by me and was also given by the elders. Plus you
Carry it close to your body every day, it is no lighter than this jade bracelet.
That girl is still the granddaughter of the elder of the Jiang family, and we are intimately related to each other. Both the Jiang and Long families are very satisfied with this marriage. I have already sent someone to inform your father. The night pearl will be sent over, and the marriage will be officially settled.
." Jiang Tong raised the jade box in his hand.
"Ah?" Ding Kui got a wife out of thin air, and he was not prepared at all. "Will father agree? Getting married at the age of sixteen? Isn't it too early?"
"I can still make the decision to marry you a concubine. Your father can only agree. The girl is a year younger than you and is really not suitable for getting married right away. I have already made a decision for you and will hold an engagement ceremony at your coming-of-age ceremony.
, we will officially get married when the girl comes of age." Jiang Tong's words could not be refused.
This is an arranged marriage. I have never seen that woman. No, I think I have. When registering for the state competition, there was a girl beside Long Tan. Her eyes were big and she looked really good. Hey, wasn't she the one who was there that day?
Are you spying on me on Xichaomen Street? No wonder Long Tan said he would no longer be my enemy, no wonder he said he would tell his sister, but I was the only one who was kept in the dark.
Ding Kui figured out many things at once, "I, I, just give me this night pearl, okay?"
"Yes, you can't go see her at this time. It's time for you to meet her until the engagement. You don't have to do anything. Your uncle will arrange everything for you. You can do whatever you have to do."
Jiang Tong reminded Ding Kui with a smile.
"Oh, suddenly I have a new daughter-in-law, and my grandson is not prepared at all."
"Hahaha, you have grown up. Marry a wife and have a baby soon. Don't make us old people anxious. Well, come out with me to celebrate Jiang Cao. These descendants of the Jiang family will listen to you in the future.
." Jiang Tong stood up and took Ding Kui's hand and walked towards the hall.
Ding Kui couldn't describe his feelings. He was suddenly informed that he was going to marry an unknown woman, which was unacceptable in most of his past life experiences. The only thing that made him feel lucky was that he could have more than one wife.
If the marriage partner is Ruan Xingzhu or Li Fei, he is willing to marry him immediately; even if he is forced to marry Lu Ying or Shi Li, it is not unacceptable.
Just when Ding Kui was struggling, a girl he wanted to marry was very happy. Ruan Xingzhu was promoted to a robed magician.
The gate of the fourth meridian in Ruan Xingzhu's body was broken through, and magic power formed a small cycle in her body, and the magic power output became faster.
"Teacher has been out for so long, why haven't you come back yet?" Ruan Xingzhu ran to Rongci's room and banged on the door for a while, but no one answered, "Forget it, I'll go give him a message and tell him the good news.
You won’t scold me.”
With a "squeak" sound, as soon as Ruan Xingzhu turned around, the door to the room behind him opened.
"Teacher, why don't you open the door after I knocked for a long time?" Ruan Xingzhu looked back excitedly.
Rongci was seen dusty and dusty, with a serious face and a magic wand in his hand. It was obvious that he had just teleported back to his room from outside.
"What are you doing here? Come with me to the magic communication array." Rongci grabbed Ruan Xingzhu's hand and hurriedly walked to the bottom of the tower.
"What happened? You've returned to the magic tower and your magic wand hasn't been confiscated yet." Ruan Xingzhu noticed a detail.
A magician will only take out his magic wand when preparing to fight or cast a large-scale magic. There is no need to use a magic wand in his own magic tower.
"Something has indeed happened. Something big will happen again this time. I have to contact the General Assembly quickly." Rongci then put the magic wand into the space ring.
