Suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd, and then the crowd dispersed. Two teams of Yulin soldiers, wearing armor and holding long grass, rushed out neatly and majestically, and then separated a foot-wide passage in the crowd, which extended to the ring.
In front of the guest of honor seat.
Immediately afterwards, a Yulin Army commander shouted loudly: "General Xu Heshan is here!"
When the sitting masters of Tangming Pavilion heard this, they all stood up immediately. Li Bai and Sima Heng also couldn't help but stand up.
At this time, the shouts had just ended, and a group of people walked in quickly. The leader was about fifty years old, tall, covered in silver armor, majestic and majestic. This was one of the three generals of the Yulin Army, known as "Silver"
General" Xu Heshan.
Following Xu Heshan were six deputy generals in full armor. After the deputy generals were Zhang Qiao, the chief of the Yulin Army Jinzouyuan, and ten supervisors of the Yulin Army, and then dozens of chief and deputy commanders of the Yulin Army.
.
Led by Xu Heshan, the group came to the guest of honor's seat and sat down.
At this time, Shangguan Feixiong and Cui Gongyi had quickly stepped forward to salute Xu Heshan.
Xu Heshan looked at the two of them, nodded slightly, and waved his hand to make them retreat. Then he called Zhang Qiao and whispered twice. Zhang Qiao kept nodding, and then Zhang Qiao walked straight to Li Bai and said:
"Li Bai, General Xu invites you!"
When Li Bai heard this, he was a little surprised, but it was not appropriate to ask any more questions, so he bowed his hands to Zhang Qiao and said, "Okay, I'd like to help Zhang Changshi to lead the way."
After saying that, he followed Zhang Qiao to Xu Heshan.
As soon as he arrived, Li Bai saluted Xu Heshan and said, "Li Bai has met General Xu. I wonder why General Xu invited me here?"
Xu Heshan looked at Li Bai, laughed and said: "Haha, Li Bai, today's martial arts conference is yours, how about it, can it be done to your satisfaction?"
Li Bai didn't understand Xu Heshan's intention in asking this question, so he could only smile and said: "Return to General Xu, Li Bai is satisfied."
"As long as you are satisfied, are you confident in becoming the leader of the martial arts alliance?" Xu Heshan asked again.
"Yes!" Li Bai said very decisively.
"Okay! I hope you won't disappoint me! By the way, Li Bai, I heard that you have a great ambition, let me tell you about it!"
"Define Wulin, stabilize the country! Shen Guan Yan's talk, the art of plotting emperors, and his wisdom, I am willing to assist Bi, so that the whole region will be settled, and Hai County will be unified!" Li Bai was not ambiguous and said loudly.
Upon hearing this, Xu Heshan thought for a while, nodded, and suddenly pointed to the chair next to him and said: "Come on, Li Bai, sit next to me. Your ambition is not simple, and you deserve to sit with me."
Li Bai was not polite and sat down next to Xu Heshan.
At this time Xu Heshan said: "Li Bai, your ambition is so great, I don't think even a martial arts leader can satisfy you!"
Li Bai smiled and said: "Master taught me that things in this world must be done step by step, and becoming the leader of the martial arts alliance is my first step."
"Okay, you have great ambitions and are a good candidate for the leader of the martial arts alliance. But I don't know if your Five Elements of Justice can match Shangguan Feixiong's ten thousand efforts to submit?"
Li Bai was startled and said strangely: "Why does General Xu know that my special skill is Five Elements of Justice?"
"Of course I know. I even know that you used Five Elements Justice to kill hundreds of He Bahu and Zhao Xiong!"
Li Bai was extremely shocked when he heard this and said: "Do you even know this? Could it be that you have arranged spies in our Tianxia Alliance?"
Xu Heshan laughed and said: "Haha, if our Yulin Army wants to know something about martial arts, why do we need to arrange spies? The rankings of Tangming Pavilion are ever-changing, and we can update them as soon as possible. Do you think we can do it just by arranging spies?"
"Then how did General Xu know these things?"
Xu Heshan smiled, pointed at the big arena in front of him, and said: "Li Bai, win the arena and win the martial arts leader. You will naturally know these secrets!"
And he had to become the leader of the martial arts alliance to know the answer, which made Li Bai very helpless.
Just as he said that, the time has come.
Zhang Qiao stepped forward and asked Xu Heshan in a low voice: "General Xu, the time has come. Can we start?"
Xu Heshan nodded, indicating that he could start.
Seeing this, Zhang Qiao made a gesture to Shangguan Feixiong who was not far away. Upon seeing this, Shangguan Feixiong clapped his hands behind him. In an instant, Deng Hua, the new chief lieutenant of the Tangming Pavilion, quickly led five hundred Tangming Pavilion lieutenants.
They rushed to the big ring. They all held war drums in their hands and arranged in formation. At Deng Hua's order, a hundred drums beat in unison, with a powerful sound.
Seeing this, Xu Heshan nodded and said to Li Bai: "This Shangguan Feixiong is really good at formality."
His words came out with spiritual energy, and they could still be clearly heard in Li Bai's ears despite the loud sound of drums. Li Bai was surprised for a moment, thinking that General Xu's martial arts was really not simple.
So he replied with his true energy: "It looks good, but General Xu, I have a question?"
"Any questions?"
"Chang'an City is the emperor's capital. Aren't we afraid of alarming the emperor with the loud drums here?"
Xu Heshan bowed to the sky and said: "This will not alarm the emperor, because the main pavilion of Tangming Pavilion has been restricted by the Eight Great Masters. Except for people, nothing can get out of here, including sounds."
When Li Bai heard this, he was shocked. It was unbelievable that the restrictions imposed by the Eight Great Masters could even block sounds. He wanted to ask again, but the drums had stopped at this time, so he had to smile at Xu Heshan.
, no more talking.
At this time, Zhang Qiao slowly walked onto the ring, stood in front of all the cabinet officers, and said to everyone in the audience: "General Xu, fellow Tangming Pavilion colleagues, the re-election meeting for the chief master of Tangming Pavilion has officially begun!"
Zhang Qiao used his spiritual energy to make his voice, and the sound spread far away, so that everyone present could hear it clearly.
Then, Zhang Qiao explained the rules and some matters of the martial arts competition in detail.
When he finished saying this, the drums sounded immediately.
The drums stopped and Zhang Qiao shouted loudly: "Next, Shangguan Feixiong will come on stage to hand over the seals, seals and tokens of the Wulin Alliance Leader and the Chief Pavilion Leader of Tangming Pavilion!"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Feixiong held up a tray with both hands. On the tray were the alliance leader's seal, the pavilion leader's seal and the token. Then he walked onto the ring expressionlessly, and then handed the things to Zhang Qiao with both hands.
Zhang Qiao took it, verified the seal and token, then placed these things on a stone table in front of the arena, and quickly placed a ban on the stone table.
After doing this, the sound of drums started again. But Shangguan Feixiong returned to his seat with an expressionless face.
When the drum beat stopped, Zhang Qiao shouted loudly: "Next, please ask the deputy general to impose restrictions on each arena."
As soon as he finished speaking, the six lieutenants beside Xu Heshan came out and placed restrictions on all the arenas. In this way, all the fighting in the arena would not affect everyone in the audience.
Once the ban is in place, the drumbeat begins again.
When the drum beat stopped, Zhang Qiao continued to shout loudly: "The martial arts competition in the ring has officially begun!"
As soon as he finished speaking, fighting began in each small arena. Everyone immediately gathered around each arena, shouting and shouting, and the scene immediately became noisy.
