The so-called low-key is just Chen Zangfeng's excuse, but there is nothing he can do about it.
Besides the excuse of "low-key", what else can he say?
Do you want to admit in front of hundreds of thousands of powerful people from the imperial capital that even he, a grandfather, doesn’t know how his grandson suddenly transformed from a good-for-nothing fool to a proud man in just a few months? Someone needs to say this.
Just believe it.
The King of Daxia smiled disapprovingly: "Well, it's good to be low-key. I like people who are low-key."
"Your Majesty is so complimentary."
Chen Zangfeng spoke modestly, but his heart was filled with pride: "Should the family elders headed by Chen Jinyang stop calming down this time? You put pressure again and again to force my grandson out of the royal city. After a few months, I
Sun Tzu is back again! Moreover, he is coming back in the name of Danwu Shuangjue and as a genius!"
"I really want to see what wonderful expressions those old immortals have at this time? Hahaha..."
The conversation between the King of Great Xia and Chen Zangfeng was extremely simple, and it was enough to show that the talented boy in alchemy on the Qianlong Platform was not a descendant of a poor family in the frontier at all, but the legitimate grandson of the General's Mansion!
This news swept across like a hurricane, making hundreds of thousands of spectators sigh with emotion!
"This boy is actually the grandson of the old hero Chen Shen. It's so hard to hide it from me!" Chen Zangfeng's reputation for loyalty and bravery spread throughout the world, and upright people like Deng Yideng admired him the most.
"It turns out that Senior Chen Shen is the number one general in the imperial capital. No wonder he is so awesome. It is true that a tiger father has no dog son!" The big man Luo Xiaoluo was also filled with admiration.
As for the little loli Ma Jingjing's mood, it's a bit complicated. Her crescent eyes are full of worry about gains and losses.
She was surprised for Chen Shen, but also felt a sense of loss because the other person's identity was different from the past.
Little Loli felt that her status as the eldest lady of the Ma family, the so-called three major families in Kowloon City, compared with Chen Shen at this moment, had undoubtedly changed from a white swan to an ugly duckling, and she couldn't help feeling sad...
As for those who had offended Chen Shen, after learning the true identity of the young man with the silver gun, their faces became uglier than the last.
Among them, the nine children of high-ranking officials who had teamed up to defeat Chen Shen in the battle hall competition were the most——
"Let me go, the people who compile contestant information in the Hundred School League are just cheating! What is Kowloon City Chenshen? They are obviously the imperial capital and the general's mansion, how about Chen Shenchen, young master?" Jin Chengzhi looked bitter.
What's funny is that he used to tease Chen Shen about his grandfather being the Minister of Punishment.
Now think about it, who is a third-rank official like the Minister of Criminal Affairs? Even if all the six ministers are gathered together, they would not dare to challenge Mr. Chen...
"I'm an idiot... If I had known earlier that he was the young master of the General's Mansion, I wouldn't have dared to provoke such a being even if he was killed! It's over, it's over, this is terrible..." Dianyi also looked aggrieved.
.
Others only know that his father, Dian Long, is the commander of the imperial guards, but very few people know that Dian Long has another identity: that of being a loyal supporter of General Chen!
Twenty-eight years ago, when Dian Long was just a general in the army, Chen Zangfeng was already the leading military marshal of the empire!
Old General Chen leads the Chen Family Army, defending the navy of the Kou Kingdom in the south, resisting the Jin Kingdom's cavalry in the north, defending against Mei Kingdom's sneak attacks in the west, and consolidating thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in the east, winning every battle!
So later, when the enemy soldiers saw the military flag with the word "Chen" from a distance, they became timid before fighting and were frightened after hearing the news...
Chen Zangfeng's great talent, great strategy, invincible bravery, and love for his soldiers are all admired by Dian Long!
Time flies, time flies.
Today, more than 20 years later, Dianlong has reached the high official position of the imperial commander. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the confidant and favorite general of the King of Daxia.
But no matter when or where, as long as he saw Chen Zangfeng, he would still respectfully perform a general salute, with burning eyes and a respectful attitude...
If he were to know that his own son actually tried to kill the grandson of General Chen, he would have to break his legs and feet!
When Dianyi thought of this, her calves couldn't stop trembling...
The state of mind of the other seven imperial dandies is almost the same as that of Jin Chengzhi and Dianyi.
A day ago, the nine of them were still planning how to take revenge on Chen Shen in the future. But after learning the true identity of the other party, these people all withered without exception.
They no longer dared to mention the matter of revenge, but instead thought in their hearts: they must go to the General's Mansion as soon as possible to apologize...
"Okay, let's continue the competition in the battle hall!" Xia Yuanlong waved his hand, indicating that the competition should continue.
Liao Cangmang was also unambiguous and explained clearly the rules of the battle hall finals in a few words.
To put it simply, the rules of the game are one-on-one drawing of lots: first ten will lead to five.
Then, one person draws a bye, and the remaining four players play against each other, with four advancing to two.
Those who had a bye in the second round, together with the two contestants from four to two, took the stage to start a three-way melee.
Finally, the King of Daxia will hand-pick the top pick, the second pick, and the top pick based on their performance in the melee.
In other words, even if two people join forces to defeat the other person first in a three-person melee, it does not mean that the champion will emerge from the two of them.
The key is to look at the performance during the battle, which will undoubtedly be much fairer.
"Boom!"
With a bang, the battle hall finals officially begin!
The first four battles can all be said to be average, not exciting at all.
Seeing this, the 100,000 spectators couldn't help but whisper -
"The quality of the top ten in this battle hall doesn't seem to be very high? There isn't even a nine-star mystic."
"It's strange. I heard before that there will be nine children of high-ranking officials competing in this session. Each of them has the nine-star cultivation level of Xuanzhe! Among them, Dianyi, the son of Dianlong, Jinchengzhi, the grandson of Jintuo,
It’s still the combat power of the Nine Stars of Xuan Zhe!”
"What's the matter? I've heard even more exciting news: Princess Xia Caiyue, the jewel in the eye of King Huainan, also participated in this Hundred Schools League! Rumor has it that she broke through to a one-star Xuanshi three months ago
Realm! Isn’t it different that you haven’t climbed to the Qianlong Platform?”
"Well, I've heard about this too. According to rumors, the prize for the number one scholar in this war hall will reach a record high, and it's all for Princess Caiyue! I didn't expect that it would be like this now..."
…
Not only the 100,000 spectators in the spectator seats, but also the King of Daxia found it a little unbelievable: "Jin Tuo and Dian Long's juniors are just fine, how come even that girl Xia Caiyue failed to advance to the finals?"
Just as he was wondering, the young man who had just stepped onto the Qianlong Platform hugged Chen Shen with a respectful expression.
Immediately, he jumped off the ring neatly and said loudly: "I surrender!"
"What the hell? What's going on?"
"Admit defeat? Did I hear you right?"
"This... you gave up without even fighting? This is the finals of the war hall! It's really weird..."
