Huang Beiyue walked towards the maroon horse. Lin Wanyi glanced at the groom leading the horse from a distance. The groom nodded quietly, and Lin Wanyi smiled imperceptibly.
Princess Yingye's competition was in the second round, so she also came over. She was wearing a simple riding outfit and was not as high-profile as Lin Wanyi, but Princess Yingye's natural nobility was obviously a head above Lin Wanyi's.
"Beiyue, be careful now and don't show off." Princess Yingye walked up to Huang Beiyue and said, glancing at Lin Wanyi.
Prince Jing has always been disloyal to the prince, and Princess Yingye obviously doesn't have a good impression of the future Princess Jing.
She also knew that Lin Wanyi had always been very powerful, and Beiyue would probably suffer a loss if she competed with her.
But in full view of the racecourse, if Lin Wanyi dares to do anything, she will definitely not let her go!
Huang Beiyue nodded: "Thank you for your concern, princess." After saying that, he jumped on the horse, reined in the reins and glanced at the stands next to him.
Indeed, many dignitaries came. Among the royal family, the prince, King Jing, the third prince, and several young princes and princesses all came.
King Xiaoyao was also present and seemed to have been looking at her. After she turned her eyes away, he opened the folding fan and smiled at her like a spring breeze.
Huang Beiyue nodded politely and glanced at Feng Lianyi beside King Xiaoyao. He was just sitting casually and smiled when he saw her.
Huang Beiyue ignored it and continued to scan the auditorium. Duke Anguo's mansion was also among them. The old fat man was squeezed into a chair and looked at her with a sinister expression on his face, while Xue Che had a gloating expression.
People from the Xiao family were on the other side, and Xiao Yuanyuan came unexpectedly, looking at her with a livid face.
Huang Beiyue didn't want to look any further, so she looked away, picked up the bow and arrow and looked at it.
Lin Wanyi also got on the horse, pulled the reins, and glanced at her. The bows and arrows used in the competition were not the small bows used by nobles in the Imperial Academy, but were actually used on the battlefield!
She didn't believe that Huang Beiyue could pull away!
Academician Guo and Academician Lei both acted as referees and encouraged their students respectively.
The starter held a gong in front of the two horses and struck it three times. Suddenly, everyone in the noisy racecourse fell silent.
Everyone in the audience turned their eyes one after another to watch the rumored waste challenge the Silver Warrior!
Dean Canghe was sitting in the middle of the referee's box, stroking his beard and smiling: "Although the competition is important, remember not to use any means to hurt people on the field!"
This is Lingyang Academy’s rules for competitions over the years. Competitions are competitions, which are different from life and death in the arena.
"yes!"
"yes!"
Huang Beiyue and Lin Wanyi clasped their fists together and saluted to Dean Canghe and the referee's bench. Dean Canghe sat down with satisfaction.
The starter raised his hand, and under the warm light, the gong reflected a dazzling halo. In this grand game, this halo has an indescribable solemnity and sanctity!
Boom——
With a sound of Luoju, the commander's voice also sounded: "Start!"
The two horses galloped out almost at the same time, at the same speed, refusing to give in to each other.
This opening scene made the audience murmur in unison, didn't they say Princess Beiyue is a waste? Looking at her riding skills, she seemed to have nothing to show for it, and her graceful and flexible posture was even better than Lin Wanyi's!
Academician Guo on the referee's bench was also beaming. He didn't expect that Huang Beiyue could be so promising and make him proud.
