Genshin Impact [Outsider]

Chapter 6 Star Dance Festival

Cheers rang out again at this moment, and were even more intense than when the hot pot first entered the scene.

Captain Yan also touched Su Li's arm at this moment and said to him: "The beautiful woman next to the hot pot is the royal guard - Shanshui, who is also the strongest medical technician in our Xingji."

Seeing Captain Yan's obsessed look, Su Li immediately realized that Captain Yan must have fallen in love with Shui Shan. "Well, can you tell me about the imperial guards?"

Captain Yan put his arm on Su Li's shoulder, pointed at the hot pot on the stage who was still cheering, and said, "There's no need to explain Shui Shan and this violent guy. There's also a royal guard named Lei Ying. Usually, these three are the ones who show up. That's all I know."

Su Li nodded. There were three guards who appeared in public, but there was no guarantee that there were only three guards in front of the emperor. There must be some guards who were unwilling to show up.

Hotpot stayed on the court for a full ten minutes, cheering and telling jokes. He handed the court over to the referee only when he had enough fun. He even looked back and showed off when he left the court.

After this match, the promotion match was over, and after a short break, tonight's finals would begin. Captain Yan asked his men to buy some sand wine from the stalls and distribute it to the members, and Su Li of course got a glass as well.

Captain Yan said to Su Li firmly: "In the duel later, Hotpot will definitely make a secret arrangement to let you duel with him... But I believe you can win, I will definitely bet on you!"

Seeing his resolute look, someone who didn't know would think it was a farewell of life and death. Su Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will do my best and will not let you down!"

Captain Yan's men also followed suit and said, "Brother Su, we believe in you. Even if we lose money, we will bet everything on you!"

Captain Yan coughed and said, "Okay, don't get so excited. There's another performance coming up. Our princess is going to perform the Star Dance Festival on stage soon."

"Oh wow, is she still a little princess this year?"

"Nonsense, have you ever seen the eldest princess perform since the youngest princess celebrated her eighth birthday?"

"That's true..."

Su Li was a little confused and asked, "Why does the little princess dance the Star Dance?"

Captain Yan chuckled, "You don't understand this, right? According to our tradition, every year during the Star Festival, the royal family will select a princess to perform the Star Dance. However, in recent years, it has almost always been the little princess who has performed the Star Dance. This is now the norm."

Su Li was still a little confused, "Someone just said that the little princess started when she was only eight years old?"

Captain Yan also smiled and shook his head, saying, "It's just a rumor. The little princess just looks like she's eight years old. Some people say she's twelve. But let me tell you, I actually saw the little princess when I was a child, and she hasn't changed at all."

Su Li pondered for a moment and said, "Sure enough, I'd better think about it after I see it."

Soon, several soldiers gathered around the venue and began to be on guard. Everyone remained dignified and quiet at this time.

A path cleared in the direction of the Star Hall, and a little girl in gorgeous clothes slowly walked onto the venue.

Captain Yan hurriedly pushed Su Li and told him, "Look, the little princess is going to the stage!"

Su Li looked in the direction of the Star Hall and saw a petite, quiet and elegant little girl walking slowly towards the square.

Her gray-black hair was tied up by a princess hairpin as clear as snow, her fair skin was so tender that it seemed to be broken by the snap of a finger, her butterfly skirt dotted with morning stars was like a dream, her pink lips were smiling under her tender face, and her eyes were deep and starry. Her every glance and smile were lovable, and her every move was also very dignified and elegant.

Su Li had never seen such a lovable little girl and immediately understood why the little princess had been dancing at the Star Dance Festival over the years.

The Star Dance Festival expresses the yearning for happiness and well-being, is a blessing to the god who protects the people, and is also a praise for all aspects of the world.

Su Li stared at the little princess's every dance in fascination, and everyone present was also staring at her in fascination. They all put their hands together and prayed for a happy and healthy life in the future.

Elegant dancing is the foundation of the Star Dance Festival, soft and graceful dance is the beginning of the Star Dance Festival, and wonderful dreams are the end of the Star Dance Festival.

It was not until the dance ended and the little princess bowed and slowly left the stage that everyone came back to their senses from their recent intoxication, and applause and cheers resounded through the sky.

Captain Yan clapped his hands, "As expected of a little princess, she gives her best every year!"

Su Li nodded, "Both the person and the dance are admirable."

After the Star Dance Festival ended, the Star Festival Fighting Final Battle officially began. Although there were many winners in the Advanced Battle, a large number of them only participated in the Advanced Battle and did not sign up for the Final Battle after winning.

Captain Yan smiled and said to Su Li, "There will only be three teams in the final battle, and the last three people will win. The ranking will be determined by the referee's assessment of the strength score. Of course, those who are not convinced can duel with the other two, and the winner will swap places."

After Su Li expressed her understanding, she asked, "Didn't you win as well? How come only three teams entered the final battle?"

Captain Yan smiled bitterly and said, "I don't want to be beaten into a meat pie by a strong man like Hotpot. There must be many people like me, so they only participate in the advanced battle and get some small rewards."

Su Li didn't know what to say, so she just nodded.

"In short, Lord Miao will appear after the fight is over, and then you will be able to meet our Lord God!" Captain Yan looked towards the Star Hall, his words filled with unconcealed anticipation.

"In the next game, Su Li will play against Huo Guo." The referee suddenly shouted, and the scene immediately exploded. Su Li finished the Shajiu in one breath and walked towards the center of the venue.

"Here it comes, I wonder who will win..."

"Needless to say, although the young man from outside is powerful, he will be miserable when he meets Master Hotpot, tut tut tut..." The man shook his finger and looked at Su Li with some pity, "He will be miserable."

"Lord Hotpot must be awesome. I'm going to bet a full 100,000 Moras on Hotpot today!"

"Me too. This is a battle without suspense. Let's just see how Mr. Hotpot kills the foreigner in seconds."

Su Li walked towards the referee's seat calmly, "I want to bet on myself."

A judge in the referee's booth was in charge of placing bets. She politely asked Su Li, "The maximum bet for the final battle is 100,000 Mora, but if a participant bets on himself, the maximum bet is 500,000 Mora. Who do you want to bet on?"

Without even thinking, Su Li took out all of his 380,000 Mora and said, "Put the bet on myself."

The referee was also stunned for a moment, but didn't say much, "Okay." After all, there were not many people who bet on Su Li, and even if the hot pot won, no one would get much profit. Instead of persuading Su Li to choose hot pot to save some money, it would be better to let others make more profits.

There is no doubt that there were only a dozen people betting on Su Li, and Captain Yan and his men basically accounted for more than half of them. A few people decided to take a gamble, so they bet on Su Li.

On the other hand, there were at least a hundred people placing deposits on hotpot at the venue, and this only counted those on the venue. There were also people outside the venue who placed deposits to participate in the election. Counting all the participants, as long as they heard about hotpot, basically everyone chose hotpot. Now the selection rate is basically one to ten.

Everything was ready, and Hotpot slowly walked onto the stage, smiling and saying to Su Li, "Hey, little brother, do you need to stretch your muscles?"

The cheers from the crowd rang out again. Su Li shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself: "At least you have a little expectation of me and encouraged me..." He just hooked his finger, indicating that the hot pot was ready.

When Captain Yan saw Su Li provoking Hot Pot in the same way that he used Hot Pot to provoke others, he immediately shouted excitedly: "Brother Su, I believe in you, beat him!"

Seeing that Su Li was provoking him, Hotpot also put away his smile and rubbed his fists together, making a crisp sound. "Then don't blame me for being rude!"

Hotpot rushed forward suddenly, shouted loudly, and threw a punch with a fierce wind, hitting Su Li in the face.

Su Li watched Hotpot's movements and reacted quickly, turning half of her body, brushing past him while punching back, her fist hitting Hotpot's chest hard and actually forcing him back three steps.

But because the recoil was too strong, Su Li had to take two steps back to relieve the impact. In addition to the hot pot on the field looking at Su Li in shock, the audience off the field also stuttered.

Hotpot patted his chest, stared at Su Li and said, "It's like a mosquito bite, it doesn't hurt, try harder."

Su Li smiled slightly, approached the hotpot quickly, and punched it in the abdomen before it could react.

Huoguo felt pain and his face turned red. He stretched out his hand to grab Su Li, but Su Li dodged. Su Li quickly got behind Huoguo, spun around and jumped up, kicking Huoguo hard on the back, almost causing him to fall to the ground on his face.

Shanshui, who was watching from the Xingchen Hall, couldn't help but laugh secretly, "This big guy will also be taught a lesson one day."

The audience was also stunned, not knowing whether they should cheer for the hotpot or marvel at Su Li's strength.

Hotpot's hands were bulging with veins, and he glared at Su Li. He rushed towards Su Li like a vicious tiger and punched Su Li fiercely.

Su Li was not at all panicked by these heavy punches that were only made by brute force, and easily dodged them with a few sidesteps. When Hotpot was punching desperately, he tripped him with his feet, almost causing the big guy to fall to the ground.

Su Li took two steps back and said with a smile, "That's all."

Hotpot had never suffered such an injustice. He felt that Su Li didn't take him seriously at all and even insulted him. He was so angry that he wanted to grab Su Li and tear him in half.

"Don't hide if you have the guts, take my punch head on!" Hotpot yelled at Su Li, then rushed towards Su Li with his fist waved.

Su Li stood where he was, smiling contemptuously, "Then I won't dodge, I will block your punch head on."

Hotpot shouted angrily: "You are looking for death!" As soon as he finished speaking, he threw the punch.

Captain Yan was shocked when he saw this scene. Hotpot's punch had accumulated elemental power, and it was no problem for him to knock down a cow easily. How could Su Li, who was so thin, withstand it? He didn't dare to watch any more and quickly closed his eyes.

Shanshui was also shocked, "Is he crazy? How dare he take this punch head-on!"
