"What's going on? Didn't the prince just personally promise that he could use elixirs to improve his cultivation, so he made elixirs on the spot? Why are he regretting it now..."
"That's right, if you don't think someone else's elixir is effective, then you won't let it be used.
"Let me check it out, isn't this an obvious double standard?
Before, it was fine for Blue Wind Academy to use elixirs, but as a result, they refined a better elixir and immediately changed the rules. Is there anyone so biased?"
The tens of thousands of people watching were filled with indignation and expressed their dissatisfaction.
Song Jian's expression was gloomy, and it was hard to tell what he was thinking. In fact, he himself was very aggrieved.
As an ambitious prince, he paid great attention to establishing his own image in order to ascend to the throne one day.
Externally, he is a wise, martial, approachable, and safe prince with extremely strong military capabilities.
Internally, he strictly controlled his subordinates and family members, and rarely bullied the people for so many years.
Because of this, it had a good reputation in the hearts of the people of the Tianfeng Empire, but it was destroyed today, and many years of hard work were in vain.
Of course Song Jian didn't want this, but he had no choice. Just now he had quickly weighed the pros and cons.
If he allowed the people at Lingxiao Academy to use the elixir refined by Ye Bufan, there would be only one outcome.
The Royal Family of the Tianfeng Empire and the Blue Wind Academy had no ability to resist at all. They were defeated in a crushing manner and took away all six places in the competition.
Although the common people couldn't see anything, those in the court could see it clearly.
Knowing that Prince Anshun was completely defeated in the battle with the Empress Dowager this time, his majesty and power would be greatly weakened, and his appeal in the future would be greatly reduced.
Because of this, he could only choose the lesser of two evils. He would rather give up his prestige among the people than give up his power in the court, so he chose to do what he did now, reneging on his word and getting rich by breaking his promise.
He thought so, and some people also understood this truth. For example, Hua Ziyue on the viewing platform had an uncontrollable smile on her face at this moment.
For so many years, she has always been at a disadvantage in her struggle with Prince Anshun and was crushed to death.
But today it was completely different. Song Jian was beaten back and forth and even gave up his prestige among the people. This was something that had never happened before.
And all this was due to that young man. Because of his appearance, Prince Anshun's position was completely disrupted. It seemed that he had made the right move.
Zheng Sanbao has always been with the Empress Dowager and is very familiar with the battles within the royal family. Naturally, he will not miss this good opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
"Prince Anshun, I don't understand this. I just heard what you said with my own ears. The use of elixirs is also a kind of one's own strength. There are no regulations in this arena. It is not allowed to use elixirs to improve your cultivation."
for.
Why did the rule change so quickly? Did the old slave just hear it wrong, or did the prince say it wrong, or is there another reason?"
Ye Bufan also followed up and said jokingly: "Yes, Your Majesty, I just made a furnace of elixirs just as you said, which took a lot of energy from me.
Why did the rules change so quickly? Could it be that you don’t want Lingxiao Academy to win?”
"It only took a quarter of an hour to refine a batch of elixirs. It's easier than eating and drinking. It takes a lot of energy!"
Song Jian cursed secretly in his heart. At this moment, he had nowhere to vent his anger. Instead, he had to lower his body.
"That...it was just a moment of lack of consideration on my part.
Think about it, everyone, if you rely on elixirs to improve your cultivation, you can easily win. This is extremely unfair to those monks who have practiced hard for many years.
I, the King, have been entrusted by the Holy One to do my duty and make this qualifying competition fair and just, without any flaws.
Just now, Blue Wind Academy and Lingxiao Academy each used the elixir once, and neither of them suffered a loss. The only one who suffered a loss was the royal family of the Tianfeng Empire.
But as members of the royal family, serving the country and the people, we should suffer a little loss. I believe that the Holy Father and the Queen Mother are also happy to see this result.
Therefore, I officially announce that from now on, no one is allowed to use any elixirs in the ring, otherwise they will be directly disqualified."
Ye Bufan secretly admired that this was indeed a super old fox. He could easily get rid of his own renegade and give himself a halo of caring for the country, the people and the saints.
The most important thing is that the little emperor and Hua Ziyue were brought in in the end, and these two people couldn't even open their mouths if they wanted to object.
It can be seen that Song Jian is really sophisticated when it comes to playing power, and the little emperor has been sitting on the viewing platform playing with his nails. Hua Ziyue alone is no match for this old fox.
Fortunately, I was the one participating in the competition today, with Wang Zha in my pocket. No matter how many tricks the other party played, whether it was sneak shots or changing cards, the result could not be changed in the end.
In any case, Song Jian is also the host today and controls the rules of the entire qualifiers. In this case, he has the final say, and others can't say anything, they can only sigh secretly.
"Since everyone has no objections, the game will continue, and now the fourth game will begin."
Song Jian was worthy of being an official, and he was very thick-skinned. In an instant, it was as if what happened before had not happened at all, and it was not him who had gone back on his promise.
He announced again: "Let's start the first match between Tianfeng Empire royal family Song Yin, Blue Wind Academy Fang Huayu, and Lingxiao Academy Jiang Fangzhou."
After the list was announced, many people's expressions changed.
That Song Yin was nothing, just a mediocre person at the peak of Divine Transformation, but Fang Huayu was the strongest one in Blue Wind Academy and was already at the late stage of Void Refining Realm.
As for Lingxiao Academy, Jiang Fangzhou is undoubtedly the weakest one. He was in the early stage of Nascent Soul before.
Although he defeated Wei Wei, in the eyes of everyone, the impression of him being a weakling has not changed.
Now using Fang Huayu, the strongest from Blue Wind Academy, to face Jiang Fangzhou, the weakest from Lingxiao Academy, seems a bit joking, but it also shows Song Jian's inner anxiety at this moment.
He did this for one purpose, which was to prevent Lingxiao Academy from winning the third game no matter what.
Otherwise, if you win half of the six games, you will basically be in an invincible position and completely push Blue Wind Academy into a desperate situation.
In other words, as long as Blue Wind Academy can win three games, even if they are tied with Lingxiao Academy, I can still make them win.
After announcing the list, Jiang Fangzhou did not disappoint everyone. He still looked extremely nervous and walked to the ring tremblingly.
Ye Bufan was secretly amused and thought to himself that this little brother is really addicted to acting. If he were sent to the earth, he would definitely get a statuette back.
The draw ended soon after, and Lingxiao Academy continued its previous bad luck. Jiang Fangzhou went up and touched another red ball.
Things were much better on the Blue Wind Academy side. Fang Huayu took away a basketball, and the remaining red ball landed on the royal family Song Yin's side.
Soon the two people stood on the ring together, looking at each other.
Jiang Fangzhou put on a pitiful look and said in a low voice: "Brother, can you be gentler later? I was just caught to make up the numbers."
