Chapter 27 The Childless Emperor 26

The martial arts finals were crowded and lively. The spectators were enthusiastic and looking forward to the emperor's arrival.

The court officials gathered in twos and threes, whispering to each other, exchanging pleasantries and discussing the various contestants.

The Minister of War, Lord Wu, was surrounded by his colleagues, all of whom were flattering him.

"Second Master Wu is extremely brave and has great martial arts skills. He will definitely be the first in swordplay today and win the championship for Master Wu!"

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it! I did my best. There are so many strong people in this martial arts exam, I don't dare to say I'm the first!"

"Like father, like son! Lord Wu is such a good fighter and he is always victorious in leading troops to fight. His eldest son is the emperor's personal guard and has a family background in learning. The second son is even better than his father!" said Gao Yunhu, the left vice minister of the Ministry of War.

……

There were even more people on the other side, surrounding Pingyang Gong Su Mu, and the same situation occurred.

"Mr. Lie is the favorite to win the championship!"

"Duke Pingyang is so lucky. Young Master Ning is knowledgeable, resourceful and can be called the top scholar. Young Master Lie is skilled in martial arts and brave. He will definitely be a fierce general on the battlefield in the future. Even Young Master Yu is a handsome man. With three outstanding people in one family and Concubine Yun as the biological mother of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Duke Pingyang is truly a winner in life!"

……

On the other side, the family members were watching the players nervously, praying and cheering for them. Su's mother clasped her hands together and silently prayed to the Bodhisattva, wishing her son safety and good results.

The crowd also exclaimed and cheered from time to time, discussing which contestant was most likely to win the championship.

"Look at that Master Chen. His moves are fierce and his momentum is overwhelming. He is like a tiger descending from the mountain. He will definitely stand out in the competition!"

"I don't think so. The other Master Li's skills are also quite extraordinary, like a dragon emerging from the sea. The outcome of this match is hard to predict!"

"No matter who is Master Chen or Master Li, in the end, it will definitely be Master Wu and Master Su who will enter the finals and compete for the first place!"

People were talking about it one after another, and the atmosphere was tense and heated. Everyone was looking forward to the emperor's arrival, hoping to catch a glimpse of his elegance.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

As the eunuch's voice fell, Yuwen Ze appeared on the field. He was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe embroidered with a pattern of a soaring dragon over the sea. Under the surging golden waves at the corners of the robe, his sleeves were blown high by the wind. His long eyebrows were slightly raised, his pupils as black as ink jade were shining with a warm glow, his handsome face had a high nose bridge, and his every move revealed the natural imperial dominance.

Emperor Yuwen Ze first expressed his affirmation to the contestants who came to participate in the competition, and then emphasized the importance of the martial arts examination.

"The martial arts competition is an important way to select brave and skilled generals, and it is also a touchstone to test your martial arts skills. I hope that all the contestants can go all out, show your bravery and wisdom, fight for the country on the battlefield, and defend our homeland."

The emperor's words aroused the fighting spirit of the contestants, and they all expressed their desire to win glory for the country and serve the emperor. Then, the competition officially began.

The first event was the equestrian competition. The contestants rode their war horses across the square. They held their spears in their hands and swung them vigorously, trying to pierce the spearheads into the targets. The audience watched nervously and cheered them on.

Su Lie was seen riding a black horse, looking extremely brave, and his horsemanship was skillful, and he rode the horse like the wind. Wu Yu was riding a white warhorse, looking very imposing, and he wielded the spear freely. The two fought back and forth on the field, and it was hard to tell who was better.

Halfway through the competition, Su Lie suddenly exerted his strength, and he rode his horse like a flash of lightning, quickly passing through the obstacles. Wu Yu followed closely behind him, and the two chased each other, knocking down other contestants one by one along the way. In the end, Su Lie won the first round and won the first place in the equestrian competition.

Then, the competition entered the second event - the swordsmanship competition. In this event, the strengths of Su Lie and Wu Yu were once again demonstrated. Su Lie's swordsmanship was sharp, both offensive and defensive, while Wu Yu used fast to beat slow, and his swordsmanship was sharp. All the opponents were defeated by the two one by one, and the final champion was indeed a fight between the two.

In the following final, the two of them were sometimes sparring with each other, sometimes fighting fiercely. They were sometimes fast in attack and defense, sometimes slow and delicate. The flashing swords were dazzling and drew cheers from the audience.

At the critical moment of the game, Su Lie suddenly used his special skill - "Tiger Descending from the Mountain". This move was extremely powerful, just like a tiger descending from the mountain, unstoppable. Seeing this, Wu Yu did not dare to be careless. He held the sword tightly and concentrated on dealing with Su Lie's attack. The two fought back and forth on the field, and the battle was in full swing!

In the end, Su Lie was the better chess player and Wu Yu was defeated again. Su Lie won the first place in the martial arts examination!

The onlookers cheered, and Emperor Yuwen Ze also kept applauding Su Lie, "Su Lie is indeed brave and commendable! It's no wonder that Concubine Yun asked me to have Wu Fei as her teacher!"

"Thanks to your majesty! It's a pity that Guard Wu's brother, Master Wu Yu, was defeated!"

"Hahaha, Wu Yu and Su Lie are equally matched, both are warriors of our Great Qi!"

All the court officials congratulated Pingyang Duke Su Mu and congratulated his second son on winning the first prize.

"Congratulations, Lord Pingyang. Prince Su Lie is a master of martial arts, just like a dragon emerging from the sea. He is truly a pillar of our court." A court official exclaimed.

"Su Lie is so young, yet he can stand out in the martial arts examination. He will surely soar like an eagle and achieve great things in the future." Another court official said with emotion.

The Minister of War, Lord Wu, also came over!

"Lord Pingyang, nice to meet you! Congratulations! Your son is an outstanding martial artist and extremely brave. He is truly a blessing to the Great Qi!"

"No, no, thank you for the compliment! It's all thanks to Master Wu Fei's good teaching! It's a pity that Master Wu Yu..."

"Hey, I am willing to train a martial arts champion for Da Qi! As for Yu'er, his brother has taught him a lot every day. Since his skills are not as good as others, he should admit defeat!"

On the other side of the contestant area, Wu Yu walked straight to Su Lie in the middle of the crowd, "Mr. Su, congratulations!"

"Mr. Wu, thank you for your courtesy!" Su Lie quickly returned the greeting.

"No, it's just that I'm not as skilled as others! Young Master Su is indeed a martial arts genius just as my brother said!"

"Yu, I admit defeat!"

"It's all thanks to Wu Ge's careful teaching. Otherwise, Lie, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to enter the finals of the martial arts exam!"

"Hahaha, brother is such a good teacher! He catches me practicing every day when he has nothing to do. With Master Lie sharing some of the burden, Yu has been much happier lately!"

"Yu Ke is honored to invite Master Lie to have a few drinks. Congratulations to Master Lie for winning the championship!"

"You're welcome. It should be Lie who treats us!"

The two smiled at each other and appreciated each other.
