When Lu Xi returned to the mansion, Chen Jinyi was already meditating in the mansion. When he heard them come in and opened his eyes, he stared straight at Wu Xun like a hawk: "Why did the last arrow fail?"

"Hands slipped." Wu Xun scratched his hair, "How was your grade today?" Chen Jinyi competed after him. He was in a hurry to get out and didn't stay where he was.

"First."

Wu Xun was rather happy: "Congratulations."

But Chen Jinyi stood up suddenly: "Why do you want to congratulate me?"

"Because..." Wu Xun was a little at a loss, "Because you came out on top?"

"I only hit the ninth ring." Chen Jinyi paused, "If you hadn't missed the target,? This No.1 should have been yours." After speaking, he turned and went back to the room, the door was closed heavily .

Wu Xun blinked, and couldn't help but ask Xu Zixiu, who was eating melon seeds, "What's wrong with him?"

Xu Zixiu waved his hand: "I can't stand my self-esteem anymore."

"Isn't he number one?"

"That's why his self-esteem can't stand it anymore." Xu Zixiu shook his head, and said seriously, "You think, you saved him, and now he eats yours, drinks yours and lives yours, but he still wins because of your miss you……"

"Xu Zixiu!" An angry roar came from the room, Xu Zixiu winked at Wu Xun, and said in a low voice, "Look at what I said,? I'm ashamed—"

"Get out of here!"

Xu Zixiu was not annoyed, and hurried back to the room, and then Wu Xun heard Chen Jinyi's roar and Xu Zixiu's hippie smile begging for mercy.

Wu Xun rubbed his ears, and asked Lu Xun, "Do you think Xu Zixiu's skin has thickened?"

"It's probably a family history." Lu Xi said slowly, "His father's face is not too thin."

"Then do you know what Chen Jinyi is angry about?" Wu Xun still didn't understand why Chen Jinyi was so angry.

"He,? Just like what Xu Zixiu said." Lu Xi smiled, "He lost to you before, but he lost convincingly, so this time he won you,? Instead, he felt that he was invincible. "

Wu Xun suddenly realized: "Is your personality so awkward?" Before he finished speaking, the sound of blowing hair and soothing sounds came from Chen Jinyi's room.

Wu Xun rubbed his ears and felt that the two were a good match. He glanced at Lu Xie quietly and added another sentence, but he was not as good as Xiao Xie.

……

In the evening, the list of those who failed the first two rounds was released, and the list of those who were eligible to participate in the third round was posted at the gate of the city.When Chen Jinyi went out to look at the list, he asked Wu Xun if he wanted to go. Wu Xun was practicing martial arts, so he thought about it and shook his head: "I'm too lazy to go."

"Aren't you worried about not being shortlisted?"

"No." Wu Xun said with a smile, "I'm going to take the martial arts exam, and I won't fail to be shortlisted."

Chen Jinyi: "..." It's really annoying.

Xu Zixiu wanted to go, but because the matter with the pawn shop hadn't been resolved, he was ordered to ground him, and he could only wait helplessly for Chen Jinyi to come back.Not long after, Chen Jinyi came back, and Xu Zixiu hurriedly asked, "How is it?"

"Into the."

Chen Jinyi glanced at Wu Xun, but he couldn't help but admire: "This guy ranked first in the first two rounds."

"What about you?"

"Tenth." Chen Jinyi touched his nose, then took a step back and bowed to Xu Zixiu, "Master Xu, I was sorry for your trouble a few days ago."

Xu Zixiu blushed, and didn't know how to move his hands: "No, you're welcome, we're all our own." After thinking about it, Xu Zixiu imitated the Jianghu people's posture mentioned in the storybook and clasped his fists, "Brother Chen You're welcome, you and I are friends, if Brother Chen doesn't dislike you, we can become brothers with different surnames."

Chen Jinyi was stunned. In fact, Xu Zixiu felt a little regretful after saying this, and always felt that something was weird.

At this time, there was the sound of clapping hands behind them. As soon as they turned their heads, they saw Lu Xie sitting at the stone table, with an expression on his face that he didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement: "You two are progressing very fast."

"Hurry, hurry?" Xu Zixiu always felt that this was not quite right.

Hearing that Lu Xi nodded seriously: "Of course soon, I thought you were going to enter the bridal chamber yesterday, but I didn't expect you to become brothers with different surnames today, and the progress is rapid."

Chen Jinyi: "..." Is this person really a good person?Always feel a little bad.

Xu Zixiu: "..." This is clearly a mockery!Little Six is ​​so dark-hearted!

But when the two of them looked at each other and then looked away immediately, Xu Zixiu's eyes dodged a little: "No, if you don't tie it, let it go, I will

I'm just kidding. "

Chen Jinyi wanted to reach out his hand, but he didn't know what he was going to say when he held him, so he gave up after thinking about it.When I was looking for a place to practice, I almost ran into Wu Xun when I turned around. Wu Xun looked curious: "So brothers can also enter the bridal chamber?"

The corner of Chen Jinyi's mouth twitched. He thought this was a scale that he couldn't bear. Unexpectedly, Wu Xun looked at Lu Xie with great interest: "Xiao Xie, can we also enter the bridal chamber?"

Lu Xi: "..." He lifted a rock and shot himself in the foot, that's all.

***

The third day of martial arts is the most important day of the three days.

Wen Wu No. [-], Wu Wu No. [-], because Emperor Ping Wu reorganized and canceled the imperial examination for Wu Juren, instead, the emperor and important officials of the court will go to the school to watch the battle in the arena, which naturally includes His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

The ring battle is divided into three rounds. The first round is a scuffle. All the candidates who are shortlisted for the ring battle will be divided into five groups by lottery, with a limit of one stick of incense. Those who stay on the ring after one stick of incense are eligible Participate in the next round of competition.The second round is a one-on-one competition. After the winners of the five arenas are determined, they will enter the third round.

The third round of competition is not just about force. There are five flags on top of the five towers, which symbolize everyone's base camp. What they have to do is to hold their own flag and win the opponent's flag. Choose 20 soldiers from among the soldiers to fight offensive and defensive battles as your subordinates. The competition is not only about force but also strategy.

It was not until the end of the second round of competition that His Royal Highness arrived late.The prince, who was dressed in apricot yellow, seemed to be feeling uncomfortable. After saluting to the emperor, he took his seat.The emperor looked a little unhappy, but he didn't get angry, he just said in a calm manner: "As the prince of Dayu, the prince should keep fit, if the prince can't even beat the boy who won the first ring, Inevitably..."

All the ministers couldn't help looking at the young man in the first ring. The young man had a dark complexion and was carrying a long stick behind his back.All the ministers looked at each other in blank dismay, that young man had been extremely fierce in several shots just now, and he had won many battles with high martial arts skills, while His Highness the Crown Prince is not a warrior, so the comparison between the two is not fair to His Highness the Crown Prince.What does the emperor mean inside and outside the words, but he is dissatisfied with His Highness the Crown Prince?

Lu Xi raised his eyebrows: "Father loves this person so much, why don't you choose him as the champion immediately?"

Lu Jian: "..." It's better to be a girl, because a son is here to collect debts.

While they were speaking, the five people who were about to launch the tower to capture the flag had already started to choose the soldiers they wanted. Everyone wanted strong soldiers, so there were many quarrels in the middle, but the protagonist that the father and son of the Tian family said just now was falling. I walked behind a group of people, looked left and right, but neither fought nor grabbed.

"What does the prince think that young man is planning?"

Lu Xi glanced helplessly at his father, at least restrain himself a bit, if this continues, Xun'er will become the target of public criticism without waiting for the announcement of the rankings to finish the exam.

But the emperor had spoken, and it would be disrespectful for the prince not to reply, so Lu Xi could only reply: "My minister thought he was selecting soldiers."

"Oh?" Lu Jian touched his chin, because Wu Xun really didn't look like he was drafting soldiers at the moment.

"Your Majesty, I thought that the examinee was still young, and although he was good at martial arts, his negligence was probably because he didn't know much about marching and fighting."

Lu Xi twitched the corners of his mouth, what a right minister, Qiu Chao, he hastily started pulling Tie Xun'er before he settled the score with him.

"Oh?" Lu Jian said with a smile, "The Prime Minister is not optimistic about this son."

"I just feel that this young man is still young and needs a few more years of training."

Lu Xi had been pursing his lips tightly at first, but finally he couldn't help it: "I feel that this young man is not at the end because he is unfamiliar. This is precisely where he is smart."

"How to say?"

"Father, look at the expressions of the soldiers who were left behind after the other candidates were selected."

"Well, the expressions are different."

"Look at the soldiers that the boy picked."

Lu Jian looked at it for a while, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. It really wasn't because he didn't want to fight, and at this moment, his heart that had been hanging was relieved.Lu Jian was naturally satisfied with Wu Xun's character, but he was worried that this silly boy would not be able to adapt to the complicated court, but now it seemed that his worries were unfounded.

"The soldiers picked by the boy were all soldiers who showed disappointment after being left behind, indicating that they wanted to fight. The soldiers who were left behind were even more powerful than the soldiers who were picked out at the beginning, because they wanted to prove that themselves. And those who are indifferent to the results of the selection, on the contrary, are fighting spirit

the weakest. "When Lu Xi said this, he changed the subject, "But it's normal. After all, these soldiers are the elite who charge into the battle. Not everyone is interested in such a competition. "

After Lu Xi finished speaking, a man with a gray beard and a military officer's armor sitting at the bottom looked better. This is Generalissimo Jiang Su, the commander of the three armies, and a first-rank military officer.

He is upright, he uses soldiers like a god, and he is also a good friend with Lu Xi's grandfather.But there is one thing, Jiang Su loves soldiers like sons, if anyone says that his soldiers are not good for no reason, he will dare to contradict even the emperor.

Qiu Chao was also very depressed at the moment. He had spent a lot of thought in the past but had never been involved in military power, so he didn't care as much about the imperial examination as for the martial arts examination.The reason why he took advantage of the opportunity to suppress the black-skinned boy was because his relationship with the prince had recently froze there.He saw that the emperor used that young man to show off to the prince, and wanted to take advantage of the situation to suppress the young man to show his favor to the prince, but he didn't expect that the flattery fell on the horse's leg.

There was a dark tide surging in the stands, but there was already a raging scramble in the stands.

The soldiers under the black-skinned boy were really brave, and they tried their best to prove themselves.Jiang Su stroked his beard, and suddenly said, "This kid is a natural born general."

"Marshal knows this person?" If it was said that Qiu Chao suppressed the young man just now because he wanted to ease the relationship with Lu Xie, but at this moment he was really targeting Jiang Su, hiding the knife in his words, wiping the poison with the knife.The implication is that the reason why Jiang Su praised the young man was because the young man belonged to him.

Jiang Su didn't buy it at all, and snorted coldly: "I don't know him, but I have eyes to see. This son is strong in martial arts and dares to charge the front, but he has a well-organized formation, and he is neither fast nor slow. Although he rushes to the head However, it still takes care of the beginning and the end, and the plate is still full. What is it if it is not a natural general?"

"Marshal, please don't get angry with me. This old man is thinking of Marshal. He knows people, faces, but not heart. Military planes are second to none. In case of delay, we can communicate with enemies..." Qiu Chao shook his head and sighed. It’s a big deal that requires a lot of thought.”

Jiang Su's face was cold, his eyebrows were furrowed tightly: "Why should the Prime Minister do such unnecessary thinking?"

Lu Xi sighed in his heart. He admired Jiang Su's personality, but sometimes he would suffer if he was too straightforward.Although Qiu Chao seemed unreasonably worried, but after all, he was using the guise of worrying about the peace of the country, and Jiang Su's anger made him fall.So Lu Xi took up the conversation: "Do you remember that the right minister is the chief examiner of this imperial examination?"

Qiu Chao's heart was agitated, and he said hastily: "Your Highness remembers correctly, it is the humble minister."

"Martial arts and imperial examinations are all for the selection of talents, and a few competitions for one test paper are for the selection of talents. The test of the school's character may as well be reserved for the future." Lu Xi smiled, "I just think that the two of you as the chief examiners should not know each other. Since the candidates for reference don’t know it well, it’s the most fair to judge based on their talent.”

Both Jiang Su and Qiu Chao were sitting under Lu Xi, it was inconvenient to salute, Jiang Su cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness is right, I will judge fairly."

Qiu Chao also bowed his head and replied: "I will be taught." His tone was respectful, but a ruthless look flashed in his eyes. Originally, he wanted to ease the relationship between him and Lu Xi for a long-term plan, but now he found that, The prince who he thought was gradually rejected by the emperor and did nothing, unexpectedly had the appearance of a king without knowing it.

But at this moment in the arena, Wu Xun had already grasped three flags in his hands, and his last target was right in front of him - Chen Jinyi.

Chen Jinyi wiped the corner of his lips with his thumb, exposing the fangs: "Come on, I've always regretted not being able to have a good fight with you."

Both of them did not use weapons, they directly hit each other with fists and palms, and dozens of moves were passed in the blink of an eye.

In the stands, those without kung fu background couldn't even see their movements clearly, but the dust and sand around them was enough to show how powerful the two were.

After hundreds of moves, Wu Xun had forced Chen Jinyi back under Chen Jinyi's tower: "Fight from above."

Chen Jinyi has already been beaten bloody: "I wish for it!"

The two fought around the tower, and some people were dumbfounded. Even Jiang Su couldn't help clapping his hands and praised: "This year is really talented." In previous years, there were very few real martial arts masters in martial arts, but this year not only There are two more, and they are both young heroes with a bright future.

Every opponent will meet Liangcai, and Wu Xun hasn't played so much for a long time. He couldn't control his strength for a while, and when they hit the top, they heard the creaking sound of the tower under their feet.

If it was the first time, Wu Xun would probably panic too, but after all, the first time he was born and the second time he was familiar with, the last time he was in the Sun Mansion

Also encountered such a situation.So Wu Xun pulled out the flag and shouted to Chen Jinyi: "Go!"

Of course, Chen Jinyi also knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, but when he mentioned his anger, his face changed.Just now the fight was too fierce, the internal energy in the dantian was surging, and it was out of his control at this moment.Wu Xun had already climbed halfway down, but when he looked up, he found Chen Jinyi holding a piece of wood with an ugly expression on his face.Wu Xun thought about it for a while, and stomped on the wooden tower. The wooden tower burst open, but he jumped into the air with his strength and grabbed Chen Jinyi's neck, and the two fell firmly to the ground.

It was the first time for the invigilator to see such a battle, and it was the applause from the other candidates around him that woke him up, and he knocked on the gong vigorously: "The third test is over, Wu Xun wins!"

Before the invigilator finished speaking, Wu Xun struck out like lightning, and hit Chen Jinyi on the back of the heart with his palm. Chen Jinyi immediately spit out a mouthful of black blood. When the black blood was exhausted, his lips were stained with bright red.

Everyone was uproarious.

Qiu Chao couldn't hold back even more, and said sharply: "Being violent is against the rules of the examination. Even if the sky is full of talents, it should not be tolerated!"

The author has something to say: Chen Jinyi: ... who are you?Fuck your shit, is it your turn to beep?

Qiu Chao: Rough and vulgar, it's an insult to gentleness!

Jiang Su: What the right minister taught is that we are so uneducated, so can you shut up?
