"Your Highness the Fifth Prince, Your Highness the Fourth Prince, please wait a moment, I will make arrangements immediately."
Jian Yun, the proprietor of the Fighting Demon Arena, smiled brightly and bowed down to the Wanfu gift, then turned around and left gracefully.
Bai Yu noticed the order of her words. The fourth prince was older than the fifth prince, so he should be mentioned first, but she said the fifth prince first. From this subtlety, it can be seen that she should be from the fifth prince's side.
Of course, in addition to the order of her words, Bai Yu also noticed her graceful turning. Her figure was really great. Jinhua was right next to her, so she didn't want to look too much. She looked away. If Jinhua noticed it, she would be so jealous.
Big.
Soon, Jian Yun made arrangements.
Ten monsters lined up from the passage and stood on the flat ground in the middle of the fighting arena.
The ten monsters were all shackled and very quiet. They had obviously been "trained" and were not the violent "wild" monsters that Bai Yu and Su Jinhua encountered when they took on the case.
There is a cat demon with glowing green eyes, and looking into his eyes makes people feel panicked.
There is a strange creature with long straight black hair covering its face, and its figure is illusory.
There was an indescribable mass of rotten flesh that was full of stench, with an eye growing out of the left side, a hand emerging from it, and a tail trailing behind it...
The eyes are not eyeballs but toes, who would have thought.
Do you think the palms are connected to the fingers? Yes, they are connected to the fingers. Who would have thought?
Of course, the tail is not a normal tail, but a whole spine, with small dog heads, pig heads, sheep heads growing out of each bone joint... Who could have predicted it.
It was so messy that even the goddess of life cried in anger when she saw it.
Su Jinhua frowned, obviously feeling uncomfortable, and looked away with her beautiful eyes.
The noble ladies on the Fourth Prince's side looked disgusted and looked away.
Jian Yun hurriedly apologized and squatted for Wanfu Li, "I'm sorry, the person under my command has no vision and did not consider the feelings of the ladies. I immediately asked someone to replace them."
The fifth prince waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, the monsters are weird and weird. It's not surprising."
The fourth prince said, "Fifth brother, this owner of the Demon Arena belongs to you. In order to prevent the owner of the Arena from cheating on you, I will choose first, and I will also prohibit you from choosing four. This is only fair."
Isn't this just "forbidden heroes and choose heroes"... Bai Yu couldn't help but take another look at the fourth prince. The prince who had the courage to compete for the throne was indeed very shrewd.
If the owner of the Demon Arena really wants to help the fifth prince to cheat, there are actually various ways to do it. Of course, it is just for fun and there is no need to be too serious.
The fifth prince smiled and said, "As it should be, fourth brother invites you first."
The fourth prince and several nobles around him discussed the ten monsters and quickly made a decision, choosing the piece of rotten flesh and banning four monsters that looked quite brave.
As a result, the fifth prince only has five monsters to choose from.
The fifth prince suddenly looked at Bai Yu with a smile and said, "Brother Bai Yu, my luck has not been very good. I want to take advantage of your luck. You have to choose. If you win, the spirit treasure I took out and the spirit treasure taken out by the fourth brother will be yours."
All the treasures are yours, it doesn’t matter if you lose, it’s just for fun.”
You want to get involved in the relationship that I am Zheng Tong's "adopted son"... Of course Bai Yu knows that the fifth prince is trying to give him the spiritual treasure in a different way. It would be too vulgar to give it directly and it would easily make people resist.
;Sending it in this way is both interesting and a bit difficult, but it is easy to accept.
"Then I have to choose carefully."
Bai Yu smiled. In the eyes of so many eyes in Manhuang City, he had been deeply "labeled" by the Fifth Prince's camp. There was no need to be too polite to the Fifth Prince. He might as well receive some "benefits".
As for the purpose of the fifth prince, he also understood it. It was just to let him chat with Zheng Tong and say good things about the fifth prince. He was just a "adopted son" and his words didn't carry much weight. If things didn't work out, the fifth prince wouldn't blame him.
Bai Yu was happy to be able to make money without losing money. He didn't even have to say anything to Zheng Tong. If the fifth prince asked him about it after a while, he would say that he had already talked to Zheng Tong, but Zheng Tong didn't agree...
...There is a lot of freedom in this kind of thing, it all depends on your mood.
"Which one is better to choose?"
Bai Yu observed.
These were all second-level monsters. It was hard to tell which ones were strong and which ones were weak, so he directly used his investigative eyes.
I found that all the green light was coming, but the green light also had different shades. The darker color meant stronger strength, and the lighter color meant weaker strength.
"Choose that cat demon."
Bai Yu chose the darkest one among the five monsters.
He looked at the indescribable carrion demon that the fourth prince had chosen, and found that the color was also quite dark.
It's hard to say who will win between the cat demon and the nameless carrion demon. It seems that the fourth prince and several noble sons and daughters also have very good eyesight.
"The cat demon and the meat demon stay, and the other monsters exit."
Jian Yun announced the results of both parties' choices.
The other monsters lined up and walked back to the passage, leaving only the cat monster and the carrion monster on the ground.
The fifth prince glanced at her and said, "Let's get started."
"Wait."
The fourth prince looked down and said, "Listen up, carrion monster. If you lose, you will die. If you win, I will make the decision and allow you to leave the fighting arena freely."
Jian Yun said, "Fourth Prince actually does not need to boost morale. The rules of my monster fighting arena are not only about superiority and inferiority, but also about life and death. As long as any monster enters the arena, it must fight tooth and nail. There is absolutely no possibility of fraud."
The fifth prince smiled and said, "Miss Jian may not know that fourth brother likes to boost morale the most. This is fourth brother's hobby."
The fourth prince also smiled, "Fifth brother, when the day my father dies, you will still have to run in front of your 300,000 imperial guards, raise your arms and shout to boost morale."
The fifth prince thought for a while, "That's true..."
The fourth prince said humorously, "I have even guessed how the fifth brother will boost morale. The fifth brother will definitely say that according to the imperial edict of my father, it is passed down to you that the eldest prince and I, the fourth prince, are rebellious, usurping power and seizing the throne, allowing the soldiers to follow suit."
This is the time for you to enter the imperial city together and make great achievements."
The fifth prince nodded, "Since fourth brother has already thought it out for me, I can worry less and will say so when the time comes."
The two brothers looked at each other and laughed together. People who didn't know better thought they were really good brothers.
Are you talking about cross talk here? Bai Yu started to find it interesting, but after listening to it too much, he felt tired of it. It was still the fragrance of Jinhua, and he would not get tired of it in thirty years. He leaned over and leaned in to chat with Jinhua. It really smelled good.
After Jian Yun announced "Start", the cat demon and the carrion demon started fighting. They were nothing more than roaring, biting, hitting, lashing and other brutal attacks. It was very violent, but not interesting to watch. Everyone on both sides didn't bother to watch, and they were whispering to each other.
Chat.
About tea time, Jian Yun chuckled, "The winner has been decided."
Only then did everyone on both sides pay attention to the scene, and saw that the cat demon was still there, with its fur stained with blood, and its body covered in scars, some of which were deep enough to show the bones, but it was not dead. On the other hand, the carrion demon was gone, and there were only pieces of meat on the ground.
In terms of "meat quantity", it was about 30% less, and it was obviously eaten by the cat demon.
Jian Yun announced, "The cat demon wins, which means the fifth prince wins."
"Brother Bai Yu, these two spiritual treasures are yours."
The fifth prince smiled and stretched out his palm. The four-clawed dragon-shaped shadow surrounding his body moved, stretched out a dragon claw, grabbed the two spiritual treasures, and placed them on his palm.
He changed his hand and handed it to Bai Yu.
"Thank you, Fifth Prince."
Bai Yu took the two spiritual treasures and glanced at the dragon-shaped shadow of the fifth prince inadvertently. Look at this person's hand, he is very dazzling.
Then look at the skills of my two character cards, they are very impressive...I don't really envy the fifth prince's dragon-shaped shadow.
The spiritual treasure given by the fourth prince is a pendant that can be worn around the neck, and the spiritual treasure given by the fifth prince is a bracelet.
The fifth prince said, "This spiritual treasure bracelet, after you shed blood to identify its owner, wear it on your wrist. It can be controlled by your thoughts. You can advance, retreat, or defend in a single thought. Although it is not of high grade, it is useful and convenient."
.”
"My Lingbao pendant is not bad at all. It is just a piece of jewelry that I wear every day. If I encounter danger, it can activate a defensive light curtain."
The fourth prince, who lost a spiritual treasure, also briefly talked about its function. As a prince, he still has some magnanimity.
Bai Yu changed his hands and wanted to hand the two spiritual treasures to Su Jinhua. He subconsciously scanned them with his investigative eyes, but found something was wrong.
There was nothing wrong with the Lingbao bracelet given by the fifth prince, but the Lingbao pendant given by the fourth prince had hidden murderous intent. There was a pitch-black Gu worm hidden in the pendant, which was not a good thing at first glance.
Bai Yu just wanted to take the pendant back and planned to give the Lingbao bracelet to Jinhua.
But the fourth prince smiled first and said, "Seeing that you and Jinhua seem to be in love, each of you happens to have one. The pendant can be worn by men and women, but the bracelet is worn by women. You might as well wear the pendant and give the bracelet to Jinhua."
.”
"What the fourth prince said...makes sense."
Bai Yu smiled, took back the pendant, and handed the bracelet to Jinhua, "One for each person."
This matter is actually very simple.
Before choosing the monster, both parties had already taken out their spiritual treasures and placed them on the stone table in the middle. The fourth prince initially wanted to kill the fifth prince, but he didn't expect that the fifth prince would ask Bai Yu to choose the monster and make a promise.
, if Bai Yu wins, two spiritual treasures will be given to Bai Yu.
In the end, Bai Yu really won, and the two spiritual treasures were in Bai Yu's hands. When the fourth prince saw Bai Yu, he seemed to want to transfer the two spiritual treasures to Jinhua. In order not to harm Jinhua, the fourth prince "warm reminder"
"Bai Yu and Jinhua each have one piece.
Therefore, the fourth prince did not want to harm Bai Yu, but he did not expect that such a situation would arise. When choosing a "victim" between Bai Yu and Jinhua, he chose Bai Yu as the "victim".
Of course, the fourth prince may have just made a casual move, and did not really expect that this small trick could harm the fifth prince. It would be great if it succeeded, but it doesn't matter if it didn't, just have fun with it.
Seeing that this free move was "crooked" and jumped out of the chessboard, the fourth prince corrected it... It's that simple.
"Thank you, brother Bai Yu."
Su Jinhua took it with a sweet smile and put it on Hao's wrist. In fact, she didn't want any spiritual treasure from the two princes, but she accepted it as a gift from brother Bai Yu.
The oriole came out of the valley with a slightly sweet sound. The fourth prince took the tea and took a sip before it popped out. The nobles and ladies beside him also shuddered and looked at Su Jinhua with strange eyes. She was still at that age.
No, she's the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Jinnan's house with a very bad temper.
The fifth prince and Ning Yi looked indifferent, as they were used to.
The next game had little to offer, it was just a "stretch" for both sides.
Jian Yun had already made arrangements, and twenty monsters lined up from the passage, lined up in two rows, and stood on the ground.
There are all kinds of monsters, all in strange shapes.
Perhaps taking into account the feelings of the ladies on both sides, there was no particularly "disgusting" monster this time.
In order to prevent the Fifth Prince from cheating in the Demon Fighting Arena, the Fourth Prince made the first choice this time. Several of his noble sons and ladies discussed while watching, and selected ten brave-looking monsters to serve as pawns for the Fifth Prince's people.
"opponent".
"You two, please come down and fight the monster."
The fourth prince looked at Ning Yi and Bai Yu and said to Su Jinhua, "Jinhua should not end up in this situation. If she is injured, it will be difficult for me to deal with it if my mother and concubine accuse me. It doesn't matter whether the Marquis of Jinnan cares about it or not.
As a matter of fact, my mother-in-law still misses my aunt and you as my niece."
The fifth prince also said, "What the fourth brother said is reasonable. Jinhua is the little princess of my mother-in-law and the fourth brother's mother-in-law. No one wants to see Jinhua get hurt."
The fourth prince smiled and said, "Fifth brother, you might as well do this. No matter who of us brothers takes that position in the end, we will make Jinhua the eldest princess."
The fifth prince laughed, "Okay."
This is not in line with the ancestral system of the royal family, but neither prince has a biological sister, so this is the only common cousin.
Su Jinhua frowned and didn't know what to say. Her aunt's royal cousin and her aunt's royal cousin were competing for the throne. What could she do? In fact, she was in a dilemma.
Ning Yi suddenly looked at Bai Yu and said, "Brother Bai Yu, there are ten monsters. You are in charge of the five on the left and I am in charge of the five on the right. How about we see who can kill them faster?"
According to imperial etiquette, the left is respected, so Ning Yi asked Bai Yu to take charge of the five on the left. The small details of humility revealed unintentionally can show the noble character of the eldest son of Duke Ning.
"Then you have to hurry up, I'm very fast."
Bai Yu smiled, Ning Yi meant to compete with him again.
Ning Yi met Jinhua for the first time and saw that Jinhua had a sweet temperament. She was a little attracted to him. When she saw that he and Jinhua already loved each other, she gave up her initial feelings. However, when he was training horses in the Fifth Prince's Mansion, he was magical.
The performance of [Roll Call] technique was so brilliant that it vaguely overshadowed Ning Yi. Ning Yi wanted to regain his "place".
Of course, neither of them is that kind of narrow-minded rivalry. It's just a little fun between men. Just stand side by side with the two of them "letting go". This time you are farther away than me. I won't drink more water next time.
, hold back a big move to be farther than you.
"Okay, I will do my best."
Ning Yi also smiled, looked at Jian Yun and said, "Miss Jian, can we start?"
Jian Yun stretched out her hand and made an invitation gesture, "Then please invite the two of you to enter."
Ning Yi shook her head, "No, you can just announce the start."
Jian Yun had no choice but to announce "start".
With a "whoosh", Ning Yi jumped directly from the high platform of dozens of feet.
Every time he fell a certain distance, his figure paused out of thin air, relieving the huge impact of his body's fall.
After three pauses, he was already standing on the flat ground with his feet lightly.
This sleight-of-hand technique is very dazzling.
The expressions of the noble sons and daughters of the Fourth Prince changed. It was obvious that they were extremely fearful of Ning Yi's strength.
Bai Yu just wanted to walk down the stairs, but Ning Yi's movement was too dazzling, and he couldn't hold back the fifth prince's camp, so he had to "work" at the same time.
He also jumped directly from the high platform. When his body was about to fall to the ground, he switched the Minion character card and casually recited a curse, "The wind is coming."
【Royal to the wind (the wind follows you to your left and right, waiting for your orders).
Wind emerged out of thin air, dragging the inertia of his body's fall, and landed smoothly.
"One has unparalleled movement skills, and the other controls the wind. Even before the fight against monsters begins, it's already so exciting."
The fifth prince clapped and cheered to himself, intending to cheer up his own people.
The fourth prince asked, "Fifth brother, it's not surprising that Ning Yi studied under Yue Zun's sect and has excellent body skills. Where does this Bai Yu come from?"
The fifth prince smiled mysteriously, "I won't tell you."
"..." The fourth prince was silent for a moment, "Childish!"
The faces of the nobles and ladies around the Fourth Prince were a little ugly. Ning Yi and Bai Yu were so interested in "showing off their skills". Who were they showing off to? What should they do when they appear?
