"That's right! I heard that she was left in the palace by the Queen on the night of the palace banquet?"
"What do you mean by the Queen? She actually keeps a woman from a small family in the palace?"
…
There was a lot of discussion all around.
Yu Wenxuan sneered, "You can hear rumors everywhere, so I can't help you."
"I'm used to it already. Thank you for sending me here." Ling Xuewei shrugged.
"It's a small matter, you're welcome. By the way, where is your guard? Why isn't he here?"
As soon as Yu Wenxuan finished speaking, he saw Xiao Yifeng walking this way from a distance.
"He came just after I said that. You are not an easy guard!" Yu Wenxuan said meaningfully.
"How do you say that?" Ling Xuewei was curious.
"On the night of the palace banquet, someone saw him..." Yu Wenxuan said leisurely.
Ling Xuewei turned around and looked directly at Yu Wenxuan.
"Don't ask me how I know this. I am the crown prince of Xiliang Kingdom, so I still have some skills."
Yu Wenxuan continued. "That night, my people saw her fighting with Xuanyuan Yanran's men. A total of nearly a hundred guards were defeated by him. Later, if Xuanyuan Yanran hadn't threatened him with you, he would never have been able to capture her."
"Later I also heard what my subordinate said. He just made a conclusion based on visual inspection. Your cultivation level as a guard is at least above that of Martial Lord."
Ling Xuewei did not refute.
Regarding Xiao Yifeng's cultivation, everyone will know it sooner or later, so it is better to openly admit it now.
Xiao Yifeng didn't tell Ling Xuewei in detail what happened that night, so she didn't ask.
Although Ling Xuewei could imagine why Xiao Yifeng was caught, she still felt angry after confirming it.
Not because of Xuanyuan Yanran, but because Xiao Yifeng actually put himself into a passive position because of her.
She didn't see the wrong person.
I believe Xiao Yifeng also learned a lesson from this incident.
Xiao Yifeng came over, saluted Yuwen Xuan, and then said, "Master, this way."
"Then I'll go over first, Yu Wenxuan, you can go back and see you on the field." Ling Xuewei waved.
"Well, if you have anything, you can come to me at any time." Yu Wenxuan said.
After saying goodbye to Yuwen, Ling Xuewei headed towards her location.
Ling Yu had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw Ling Xuewei coming, he hurriedly greeted her, "Cousin, you are finally here. I thought you really had to wait until the competition started to come!"
"How could that happen?" Ling Xuewei smiled.
This competition is based on the rules of drawing lots, with two teams competing against each other, and the top 20 teams are ultimately determined to participate in the finals.
Each player has a corresponding number plate when registering, which is on the back of the iron plate.
Through the rotating number box, what falls into the same channel is a competition area.
Later, the same method will be used to decide the candidates for the two-on-one battle.
This method has been passed down for hundreds of years.
It's fair and just, even if someone wants to manipulate it, it's unlikely.
Because during this period, twenty notaries selected by the competition will be present, and they will be replaced every time the draw is made, there is no chance of cheating.
This is what Ling Xuewei learned from Xiao Yifeng.
"Look, cousin! That's the arena where we compete! It's so majestic!"
"Cousin, isn't that from the Knight Mercenary Group? They are here too? How awesome!"
…
Ling Yu was chattering in her ear. Ling Xuewei followed his gaze and saw dozens of people wearing white knight uniforms passing by slowly.
The silver cloak flutters in the wind, and his heroic appearance attracts everyone's attention.
"Knight mercenary group?" Ling Xuewei looked at the opponent carefully.
"Yes! Cousin, don't you know? This knight mercenary group is very famous in our Tianxuan Continent! I heard that their leader is a third-level martial master!" Ling Yu thought that Ling Xuewei was unclear, so he immediately explained to Ling Xuewei.
.
Ling Xuewei had actually heard about it a little bit, after all, she had known all the information about the famous players before.
After this period of non-stop training, Ling Xuewei's strength has also been greatly improved, and she is now a sixth-level Martial King.
Ling Xuewei has made such rapid progress, not only because of her own physical differences, but also with the help of spiritual stones and elixirs.
The low-grade spiritual stones in the space were decreasing rapidly, and she was reluctant to use the medium-grade and high-grade spiritual stones.
In addition, she was determined to expand the power of Xuanyuan Bookstore and spent a lot of money in the early stage, which made her realize that no matter how many spiritual stones she had, it would not be enough.
Fortunately, Ling Xuewei could refine the elixir, and when she really ran out of spiritual stones, she could ask Xiao Yifeng to take the elixir and exchange it for some spiritual stones on the black market.
Ling Xuewei was planning secretly. At this time, a group of people attracted her attention.
Those people carrying several boxes passed by the corner quickly, and you wouldn't have noticed it unless you were looking specifically.
But why are we in such a hurry?
"Yifeng." Ling Xuewei greeted.
Xiao Yifeng quickly understood what Ling Xuewei meant. The figure flashed and disappeared.
Even the nearest Ling Yu didn't notice.
At this time, there was movement on the high platform in the distance. Xuanyuan Zhan, the leader of the Xuanyuan Kingdom, appeared above and began to speak before the game.
After that, the competition was officially announced!
The roster for the first game came out soon, and the staff came to inform that Ling Xuewei was scheduled for the morning of the next day.
But when Ling Xuewei saw her opponent's name on the thin paper, her eyes narrowed.
Situ Haocang!
This man is probably unknown to everyone in the Four Kingdoms. He is the leader of the knight mercenary group that just passed by.
Ling Xuewei felt that her luck was too good.
"Cousin, who is your opponent? Let me see."
Ling Yu came over, and when he saw the name 'Situ Haocang', his eyes almost popped out of his head!
"Cousin, your opponent...how could he do this?!"
Ling Yu's face suddenly became tense. He leaned closer to her and whispered, "Cousin, this Situ Haocang is the leader of the Knight Mercenary Group, the third-level martial master!"
"Yeah." Ling Xuewei responded lightly.
Seeing that there was no expression on her face, Ling Yu felt even more worried.
That's Situ Haocang! A third-level martial master!
How could my cousin be Situ Haocang’s opponent?!
How did you draw this lottery? My cousin is so unlucky!
In the first game, I drew a master among masters!
Wouldn’t this be dangerous in the first game?
Soon, word spread throughout the waiting area that Ling Xuewei's opponent was Situ Haocang.
After all, the list of opponents for the first game has been posted, and it is difficult for everyone to know.
"Hahaha! Let her be proud again! Now she must be punished!"
"That's right, that's Situ Haocang! The leader of the Knight Mercenary Group!"
"How can Ling Xuewei, a loser with no cultivation level, win the battle?!"
"I think she'd better give up the game as soon as possible to avoid being embarrassed later!"
…
The women present finally found an opportunity to mock Ling Xuewei, and they kept talking among themselves.
Ling Yu was furious. Just as he was about to rush over, Ling Xuewei pulled him back, "Whatever they say? Just be yourself. Xiaoyu, your competition is this afternoon, right? I will go over and cheer for you then."
.”
"Cousin, are you really okay?" Ling Yu was still worried about her.
"What can I do? Okay, hurry up and get ready." Ling Xuewei chased people away.
After hearing this, Ling Yu didn't say anything more and left in three steps to prepare for the game.
Ling Xuewei was still sitting where she was. After a while, Xiao Yifeng came back.
Xiao Yifeng leaned into Ling Xuewei's ear and said, "I found a dark room under the Colosseum. I'm afraid that's where the competition prizes are placed."
Ling Xuewei's eyes flashed slightly.
Unexpectedly, I had an unexpected harvest by chance!
Those people are smart enough.
They could actually think of such a treasure hiding place.
The most dangerous place is the safest place.
Who would have thought that the underground of the arena is where treasures are placed?
"How are the guards?" Ling Xuewei asked softly.
"There are nearly a hundred people guarding them, all of whom are martial arts masters. It's not easy to break in." Xiao Yifeng told the intelligence he had collected.
Ling Xuewei was silent.
It seems that she must plan carefully.
"I know, thank you for your hard work."
At this time, I saw Xuanyuan Yanran walking over with a group of people from a distance.
Today Xuanyuan Yanran is dressed in a red outfit, with a thin silver whip wrapped around her waist, and paired with those fox fur boots, she looks so heroic from a distance!
She walked over quickly, with a familiar arrogance on her face, "Ling Xuewei, I heard that your opponent in the first match was Situ Haocang, the leader of the Knight Mercenary Group?"
The news spread really quickly, and people came to show off their power so quickly.
"The princess is very well-informed, that's true." Ling Xuewei dealt with Xuanyuan Yanran impatiently.
After hearing this, Xuanyuan Yanran's face became even more proud, "The princess is here to congratulate you. I look forward to your performance tomorrow."
Ling Xuewei smiled lightly, "Thank you, I'm also looking forward to the princess's performance on the field."
Xuanyuan Yanran originally expected to see Ling Xuewei panicking, but she didn't expect that Ling Xuewei was quite calm.
Xuanyuan Yanran sneered.
Let’s see how long you can keep pretending!
"Ling Xuewei, don't blame me for not reminding you."
Xuanyuan Yanran said happily.
"There are no swords in the arena, and anything can happen. You're a waste without any spiritual energy, so don't join in the fun. For your own good, give up the game as soon as possible!"
"I don't need to worry about it, Princess. I have my own plan." Ling Xuewei was too lazy to talk to Xuanyuan Yanran.
"Third sister, this is what's wrong with you! Since the princess cares about you so much, how can you not appreciate it?" Ling Xuesi heard the noise and came over.
"Who are you?" Xuanyuan Yanran glanced at Ling Xuesi with disgust.
Ling Xuesi saluted quickly, "Back to Princess, I am Ling Xuesi from the Ling Mansion, and Ling Xuewei is my daughter's third sister."
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Yanran became even more unhappy with Ling Xuesi, "What? Are you here to speak for her?"
"Princess, I misunderstood. Although Ling Xuewei is my third sister, you are the princess of Xuanyuan Kingdom. I just feel that my elder sister is a little rude to the princess, so I came here to make amends for you." Ling Xuesi said hypocritically.
Ling Xuewei sneered on the side.
This Ling Xuesi will be able to steer the ship according to the wind.
