Only after he got off the stage and heard Qin Mi's extremely excited explanation next to him did he understand the identity of the other party.
"Master, how can you still laugh?"
"Baratum's ability is ranked among the best in the entire South. He was originally one of the three most powerful warriors under King Dosi. This time he came to compete on behalf of his tribe to recruit a bride.
What is important is the survival of the entire tribe. If we want to say who has the best chance of finding a bride in this competition, Baratum must be one of the last few candidates."
"So this guy has such a good background?"
Yi Xiaotian scratched his head helplessly, "Good guy, I just picked the seeded player with just one draw. The difficulty of the first round is not ordinary."
Qin Mi was nervous on the side, and Duo Si also looked depressed at the "judges' seat" on the stage - as an ally and a cooperative partner, of course he hoped that Yi Xiaotian could go further.
Even if possible, it is not impossible to let Yi Xiaotian take away his sister...
Can……
But how can things ever be so satisfactory?
Judging from the attitude of Zhu Ronghuan next to him just now, Duosi understood that this aunt was determined to see Yi Xiaotian make a fool of herself in this competition.
"Sister, this... if... I say if my sworn brother Yi is unable to fight Baratum for some reason and has to surrender in the end..."
"No problem, he can just surrender - but in my opinion, Yi Xiaotian doesn't look like a person who takes random pictures. Since he dares to come, it means he has no intention of taking action."
"I want to see what method he wants to use to stand in front of me - if he can stand in front of me, I don't mind giving him a chance to defeat me... Of course, it's just a chance."
"And if, as brother, you said, this Yi Xiaotian surrendered without a fight, it means I was wrong. From now on, he can do whatever he wants, and it has nothing to do with me -"
Zhu Ronghuan crossed his legs, propped up the chair and said leisurely, his eyes never leaving Yi Xiaotian.
Hearing Zhu Ronghuan's explanation, Duosi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good, that's good... I'm also worried that if Brother Yi really surrenders, sister, you will continue to pester him..."
"I don't have the time to bother with such a weak guy, but... I don't know what will happen to my subordinates."
"Eh?
Your subordinates...you mean Maiimi..."
"Wait a minute! Where has Maiimi gone?"
Duosi seemed to suddenly realize something, stood up and looked around, constantly looking for someone.
Zhu Ronghuan smiled and said nothing and did not answer his doubts.
——
"Uh, brother, you're standing in front of us...what's the matter?"
Yi Xiaotian originally wanted to go to the preparation area to wait for the official start of the competition, but on the way there, he was blocked by a burly man.
Not to mention anything else, this person's size is absolutely huge and extremely rare that Yi Xiaotian has seen in this Nanzhong.
Just by looking at him, his arms and waist seemed to be on par with Xu Chu's.
But Xu Chu had a lot of thick fat, and he didn't look that fierce. And the person in front of him... It could be said that every inch of skin from the top of his head to his toes contained bursting muscles, which made Yi Xiaotian couldn't help but wonder.
Does he even have muscles behind his eyeballs?
In any case, since the other party stopped in front of me and didn't take action, naturally he has something to ask for?
Yi Xiaotian asked this question, but the man in front of him just stared at Yi Xiaotian with his nostrils, breathing heavily again and again.
"Oh...language barrier..."
Yi Xiaotian slapped his head and realized that the other party probably didn't understand his question. He originally wanted to find a translator, but he didn't expect that the big man in front of him suddenly spoke:
"Are you Yi Xiaotian?"
"My name is Baratum, and I am a general under the king. I am here to marry Zhu Rong, the Zhu Rong clan. I know that you have a close relationship with the king, so I am here to persuade you to surrender directly after taking power - if you don't agree.
, I won’t be merciful on stage later.”
This man called himself Balatum. He explained his purpose in broken Chinese. Yi Xiaotian and everyone behind Yi Xiaotian were a little surprised when he heard this.
Putting aside his identity for the moment, this person was actually not very hostile to them. It was clear that he came to dissuade Yi Xiaotian from giving up the game out of good intentions.
In addition, he himself is a member of Duosi, and he participated in the war for the survival of the tribe. Yi Xiaotian was only invited by Zhu Ronghuan, and he chose to participate in this competition to recruit a bride without making steamed buns to argue. In terms of legitimacy and rationality, Yi Xiaotian
Obviously, there is no good reason for the other party.
Normally, Yi Xiaotian might have adopted the other party's suggestion, but this time...
"I'm sorry, Brother Baratum, I appreciate your kindness, but there are reasons on my side that I can't admit defeat, so let's see you on stage later."
Yi Xiaotian cupped his hands towards the other party, his tone was sincere and without any bias.
Hearing what Yi Xiaotian said, Baratum looked a little confused, but after hesitating for a moment, he nodded heavily and slowly turned around and left.
Even at this time, Baratum slowly left, and everyone could feel the vibration of his feet on the ground...
Finally seeing Baratum leaving, Fan Ling was able to release her held breath. As soon as she recovered, she said anxiously to Yi Xiaotian:
"Sir, are you really sure?
You haven't let us into the backyard for the past two days. Every day we train with Zilong and Cao Ang on things we don't know... Is this really okay?
Our opponent in the first round is a powerful opponent like Baratum. Even if we defeat him, what will we do next?"
What Fan Ling was talking about was the actual situation in the past two days. After learning about the martial arts competition that day, Yi Xiaotian locked himself up with Zhao Yun and Cao Ang, euphemistically calling it training tactics. Qin Mi, Fan Ling and others
The non-combatants could only live in another courtyard temporarily. Not to mention disturbing them, they didn't even hear the slightest bit of news about Yi Xiaotian's training.
I can't blame Fan Ling and Qin Mi for being anxious around him all the time.
However, upon hearing Fan Ling's worry, Zhao Yun comforted him in a low voice beside him:
"Don't worry, Cao Ang and I can both testify that your goal is to reach Zhu Ronghuan when you come to participate in the martial arts contest this time, so we have absolute confidence that we can defeat all kinds of opponents along the way."
"It's like this. At first we were the same as you, worried that sir might be defeated by the opponent, but what can I say... the training is very effective, let us wait and see?"
Cao Ang also echoed beside them. After hearing what they said, Fan Ling and Qin Mi could not refute anything.
