Fang Lingtian looked at the seven people standing in the hall with a headache, and asked him to recommend his adopted son as the top scorer with shamelessness. It was really difficult for him, the old man. However, thinking that this kind of glory is only once in a person's life. Can he still help outsiders without helping others? He had to sacrifice his strength and not have this old face.

He gritted his teeth and was about to speak when he suddenly heard someone in the hall speaking first.

"Reporting to the emperor, I believe that those who can win the top scorer must surpass all the heroes in order to convince people without any complaints."

Everyone looked at the person who dared to speak without authorization in the hall. They saw that this person had a sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and was elegant and elegant. He was Cheng Yingtao, who was known as the number one master of the young generation of the Cheng family.

Fang Lingtian frowned. Among the seven people here, this person had the courage to speak in this situation. He is a child of the Cheng family among the four major families, and his kung fu was personally passed down by the old master Cheng Xuanfeng. He has a very important position among the younger generation of the Cheng family, second only to the second sons Cheng Yinghao and Cheng Yingjie, who were the head of the family.

So even if he was rash and rude, Emperor Xian of Han would not punish him for such a trivial matter. But this person spoke at this moment, clearly trying to rob the throne of the top scholar. Fang Lingtian thought in his heart whether he would offend the Cheng family because of this.

"So what suggestions do you have?" Emperor Xian of Han saw Fang Lingtian silently and thought to himself that since you, the adopted father, is not in a hurry, then I don't have to be this evil person, so he asked with a pleasant look.

Cheng Yingtao was overjoyed. He was born in the Cheng family and received ethics since childhood. Of course, he knew that the speech was not in line with etiquette at this time, but if he waited for Fang Lingtian to speak Xu Haifeng's name before opposing it, it would be openly an enemy of the Fang family.

This result is not something he can afford, so he had to take the lead and run it with the words. Now seeing the plan succeed, he hurriedly said: "Go back to the emperor, there are seven people here, you can catch the battle martial arts, the winner is the king, and the final result should be clear at a glance."

He claims to be the best in martial arts. If he fights alone, he will have a great chance of winning the final victory.

"I'm asking the emperor, I think this law is inappropriate." Fang Lingtian's failure to speak does not mean that there is no one else in the Fang family. Fang Lingde went out.

"Oh, my dear, come and listen." Emperor Xian of Han saw that it was this old minister who spoke, so of course he had to give some face.

Fang Lingde bowed and said, "Since it is already a palace examination, it means that you all have real talents and knowledge. The top scholar will be the first to expand the territory and build proud and meritorious generals on the battlefield in the future. Then at this level, what we need to assess is not only martial arts. The most important thing is the way to lead troops, and military achievements are also..."

"General Fang said it well." Min Zhitang stood up and said to Fang Lingde first. Because Fang Lingde was a general when he was young, he still had the title of general in the Ministry of War, so he called him General.

Then the topic changed: "However, all the palace examinations in our dynasty seem to be ranked in order by martial arts. Since General Fang has new ideas, he might as well submit a filing with the Ministry of War first, and then it will be not too late to execute it after discussing it in the main hall in the future."

Fang Lingde raised his eyebrows and waited for the discussion in the main hall in the future. So today, wouldn’t he have to compete to determine the outcome? Between Xu Haifeng and Cheng Yingtao, he was very optimistic about the former. However, he had been an official for many years, so how could he be stumped by these words. He smiled and said, “What the Prime Minister said is, but I remember that more than these seven people could win seven games in a row this time.”

Min Zhitang was surprised and asked, "I don't know who else is there."

Fang Lingde smiled and said, "Master Prime Minister has forgotten that Qin Yong, who was named the world's number one warrior by His Majesty. If we really want to show off our courage, then we might as well calculate Qin Yong. If someone can win him, I have nothing to say."

Min Zhitang felt something was wrong and was speechless for a moment, so how could he ignore this evil star? If he was counted, I was afraid that the seven people present would not be the opponent. Just looking at Qin Yong showing off his power on the school field that day, even a few first-class masters from the four major tributes in the inner court were hiding aside and pretending to be deaf and dumb, and did not dare to stop him, you would know that it was very powerful.

Fang Lingde saw Min Zhitang open his mouth and wanted to speak, but couldn't speak, and he laughed in his heart. How could the power figures in the four major families take this prime minister with a false reputation in his eyes? If the four major families had not restrained each other, when would the position of the head of the officials be on the other's head?

At this time, a young officer stepped forward with a smile on his face. It was Cheng Yinghao. He only heard him say, "General Fang, if the Qin Warriors came to power, then there is no need to compete in this palace examination. Didn't Your Majesty make Qin Warriors the No. 1 Warriors in the world? Since he is the No. 1 in the world, how can he be condescending to surrender to participate in this palace examination?"

Fang Lingde was about to refute, but when he saw Gu Daoyan take the lead, he bowed to Emperor Xian of Han and said, "Emperor, since they each have their own opinions, it is better to ask the seven champions present and see what they think."

After hearing this, the Fang brothers cursed Gu Daoyan's cunning in their hearts. If, according to what Fang Lingde said, compared to leading troops to fight, not to mention the nameless juniors in these six armies, even all the generals present dared not say that they could surpass the Black Flag Army, which had repeatedly created miracles. That was to make it clear that the title of top scholar was given to Xu Haifeng, and the others were even denied the qualification to compete.

However, if Cheng Yingtao's proposal comes to a battle in front of the palace, everyone will have a chance. Even Cheng Yingtao, who is recognized as the most powerful martial arts, dare not guarantee that he can surpass all the heroes. After all, he is not a first-rate warrior. If he is negligent, it is not a bad idea to capsize in the gutter.

After calculating this way, they would choose, and they could use their toes to figure out the answer. In this case, Xu Haifeng could never object alone, otherwise he would be ridiculed and be called a timid battle.

Sure enough, under the inquiry of Emperor Xian of Han, the other five people agreed with the way of fighting in front of the palace in unison. Xu Haifeng could only follow the trend and nodded in agreement.

Emperor Xian of Han said to Cai Junmang: "Cai Aiqing, go and arrange the competition method, let's start now."

Cai Junmang received the order, but felt in a difficult situation. The situation just now was clearly a secret battle between Fang and Cheng.

These two major families are strong. Although he is the Minister of Rites, he cannot afford to offend any of them. For the sake of the present, he can only meet with Cheng Yingtao and Xu Haifeng and let them enter the finals. At that time, they were competing for their own strength, and there was no external interference from external factors. He, the Minister of Rites, would not cause trouble.

Just as he was thinking about how to arrange the matches and candidates in his mind, Cheng Yingtao suddenly walked to Xu Haifeng and said, "General Xu, Cheng has long admired his name and wanted to ask for advice. Today, God gave him a good opportunity. Why not let you and me throw bricks and jade to do the first competition?"

For a moment, the hall was quiet enough to hear the needle. Cheng Yingtao did this and was nakedly provoking Xu Haifeng.

Xu Haifeng didn't care much about the name of the top scorer, but when he saw Tang Rouer joining with Cheng Yingtao, he didn't know whether Tang Rouer took the initiative, but he was still extremely unhappy. He had already made up his mind that anyone could get the name of the top scorer, but this guy couldn't do it.

Seeing him taking the initiative to ask for the fight, that was exactly what he wanted. He smiled and said, "Since Brother Cheng is destined, I dare not obey the order, please..."

When Cai Junmang heard Xu Haifeng face the battle happily, he was relieved. He didn't have to worry about it now. They were free to challenge him. Whoever wins and loses, and everyone will have their own destiny. It has nothing to do with him.

The Fang Lingtian brothers had a gloomy face. They were very dissatisfied with Cheng Yingtao's actions that were pressing step by step and leaving no room for nothing. But at this moment, they had no choice but to secretly cheer Xu Haifeng up.

The two walked to the middle of the martial arts hall, gave each other a gift, pulled out the iron swords sent by the eunuch, and confronted each other.

This is not a large campus, and the people who watch are all powerful people in the dynasty, and most of them do not know martial arts. For safety reasons, their weapons are all left outside the palace, and they are just good iron swords that have not yet been used. Although the style looks good, if you really want to take the sword to the battlefield, you will be seeking death.

If we only talk about momentum, Xu Haifeng, who achieved success overnight, would not be able to be down-to-earth and accumulate little by little, Cheng Yingtao, who became a master.

However, Xu Haifeng's mental method practiced is one of the unique skills of the world. Its greatest function is to calm down. Therefore, Ren Cheng Yingtao's momentum rushed towards him like a huge wave, and he also regarded it as if it were leisurely and did not care at all.

Cheng Yingtao looked solemn. He had seen Xu Haifeng's successful defense three days ago. He was so sorry for his strong endurance. He knew that the longer he would be, the more unfavorable he would be.

Just like at this moment, when the momentum was confronting, Xu Haifeng had already shown a look of being powerless and in danger, but no matter how he stimulated the momentum, Xu Haifeng could still support him without any danger. Moreover, his toughness was gradually revealed, and he had a vague counterattack.

In desperation, Cheng Yingtao had to take a step forward and take the lead.

Those who are proficient in martial arts find it incredible. You should know that when two masters of the same level compete, the one who takes the first move is often the one who loses in the confrontation of momentum.

Like today, Cheng Yingtao clearly has the upper hand, but takes the lead is truly unique.

However, only a few masters such as Gao Chengwei saw that Cheng Yingtao's move was forced. His momentum was urged to reach his peak state after several urging.

The so-called "one-stop" energy declines again, and three-death is like a full bow and arrow that cannot last long. If you don't take action, your aura will inevitably decline. If you are overtaken by Xu Haifeng's momentum, then the competition will end here.
