Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

Xiao Ce said with a smile, "What, are you trying to scare me?"

Xiao Xiangqing said, "I know those people of yours were given to you by Xiao Dingshan! But do you know who trained them?"

Xiao Ce frowned slightly.

Xiao Xiangqing said arrogantly, "The instructors training them are with my uncle! He knows all their weaknesses..."

Xiao Ce stood there stunned as he listened to Xiao Xiangqing's words.

Seeing this, Xiao Xiangqing was excited: "Hmph...did you still think you had everything under control? Just wait and you'll get your face slapped. What you hit me with, I'll take back tenfold, a hundredfold."

Looking at Xiao Xiangqing's face, Xiao Ce said indifferently, "Oh..."

"Still pretending to be calm? You're probably scared to death. If you hide and don't go back, you might not be so embarrassed..." Xiao Xiangqing provocatively said.

Xiao Ce ignored him and continued walking on his own.

After going out, he went to find Da Lei.

Xiao Ce repeated what Xiao Xiangqing had just said, and Da Lei frowned as he listened.

"Did you have a coach before?"

Da Lei nodded, a flicker of fear crossing his eyes: "That's right, that instructor is the King of Zhen's most trusted man. He not only trained us Twelve Fiends, but also nearly a hundred assassins while we were away..."

"We don't know their strength, but even if they're weaker than us, they might not be that much weaker..."

Da Lei's face was grim as he said, "Moreover, if that person really exists, he has a way to make us lose our fighting ability directly... It's a signal implanted in us since childhood... If this person really exists... Your Highness, what Xiao Xiangqing said is correct. He only needs to use that signal to make us lose our fighting ability."

Looking at Da Lei's expression, Xiao Ce already knew the seriousness of the situation.

"Go and call Fan Gang, Ashina, Hu Yidao, and you too..."

Da Lei nodded: "Your Highness, if that person really is here, perhaps only Fan Gang Ashina could win a match. Once the signal is heard, we will lose our abilities..."

Xiao Ce said to Da Lei, "It's alright, let's go take a look first! With me here, we won't lose!"

Seeing Xiao Ce's confident expression, Da Lei didn't say anything, just nodded and went to call for help.

Da Lei soon called Hu Yidao over, and Hu Yidao was very excited to be called out.

He said with a grin, "Your Highness, you finally remembered me... You're not going to make me cut meat again, are you?"

This was the second time Xiao Ce had called Hu Yidao over. The first time was when he asked Hu Yidao to slice meat while he was cooking hot pot for him.

Looking at Hu Yidao's expression, Xiao Ce chuckled and said, "I'm not asking you to slice meat, I'm asking you to slice people..."

Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Hu Yidao's face lit up with excitement: "Great director...great director..."

Because Fan Gang Ashina was too big, Xiao Ce didn't let him get on the carriage, but just followed beside it.

Inside the carriage, Hu Yidao said, "Your Highness, since we're going to gather people, there's really no need to bring this big, clumsy guy along..."

Before Hu Yidao could finish speaking, Da Lei interrupted him calmly, saying, "Among the people we're dealing with this time, there might be an instructor!"

Hu Yidao, who had been laughing and joking, listened to Da Lei's words.

That smiling face immediately froze.

"Huh? The coach?"

Da Lei nodded, and Hu Yidao, looking embarrassed, said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, are you sure? If you are, then don't send us... We might not only be unable to help you, but we could also make things worse..."

Seeing Hu Yidao's reaction, Xiao Ce became even more curious about the instructor.

"It's alright, I trust you... Have you brought everything I asked you to?"

Both of them nodded.

"Do you know how to use it?" Xiao Ce continued to ask.

The two men continued nodding: "This isn't difficult..."

Da Lei understood Xiao Ce's meaning and then said to him, "Your Highness, the most important thing is that if the instructor really intervenes, we might not be able to do anything..."

Xiao Ce nodded and said, "Is the signal you're talking about something like a spell? Someone says it and you can't move?"

Da Lei shook his head and said, "Of course not... it's just a whistle sound similar to an audio frequency. It might not work for anyone else, but only for that instructor. Because, during our training from a young age, whenever we were punished or suffered pain, he would whistle at this frequency."

"Over time, our brains become associated with that whistle. Whenever we hear that frequency of whistle, we think of painful memories, and our bodies react accordingly."

Xiao Ce nodded as he listened, and he roughly understood.

It's nothing more than a kind of psychological suggestion.

"Would plugging your ears help?" Xiao Ce asked.

Da Lei shook his head again: "His is a very sharp frequency. Unless you go deaf, you can still hear it."

Xiao Ce nodded, then suddenly thought of something else: "By the way, you won't be controlled by your instructor and come to kill me, will you?"

Upon hearing this, Da Lei immediately said, "Your Highness, rest assured, there is absolutely no such possibility... He can render us incapable of fighting and has no way to control us. We would rather die than harm you in the slightest!"

Xiao Ce listened and said to Da Lei, "Okay! No problem."

Inside the palace at this time.

Xiao Xiangqing returned very quickly, bringing ten people with him.

He then returned to his position.

Xiao Ce was looking for Da Lei for a while, which caused a slight delay.

The dinner is almost over.

Everyone was sitting there simply because they wanted to wait for the final showdown.

Everyone present was very curious, for no other reason than this.

Many people have heard rumors that he did not make the contribution to the northern frontier.

Now, let's see if he has any capable subordinates.

If they really do defeat the Western Regions Alliance, then the rumors will prove to be just rumors.

After waiting for a while, Diliti stood up and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the eldest prince won't be making excuses not to return, will he? If so, let's not wait any longer."

Xiao Dingbang looked at Xiao Yang, who then stood up and said, "Father, don't worry. I guarantee with my life that he won't run away. It's just my men. I've arranged some things for them, so finding them might take some time..."

“Dilti, if your people want to get beaten up, don’t be in a hurry… You can take this opportunity to digest your food, so you don’t get so angry that you throw up what you’ve eaten.”

Diliti sneered, "Second Prince, I hope your men are as capable as your words. Don't let them prove too easily..."

Diliti had the confidence to do so because he had taken over Xiao Dingshan's secret troops.

This secret unit is specifically for training suicide squads, and the instructors are among them.

The coach's henchmen were also there; Diliti had witnessed their prowess firsthand.

That's why they dared to make such confident and provocative statements.

Xiao Yang said, "Hmph... Don't worry. I'll definitely beat your people until they beg for mercy."

Diliti didn't want to argue with Xiao Yang anymore. He checked the time and said, "Your Majesty, if he doesn't come, we can't keep waiting indefinitely. Almost half an hour has passed. Even if he went outside the city to pick him up, he should be back by now."

Xiao Dingbang nodded: "Let's wait another incense stick's time... If they don't come, then they'll be declared the loser!"

Just then, before Xiao Yang could reply...

One of the officials shouted, "They're here...they're here..."

All the civil and military officials craned their necks to look.

Xiao Ce walked at the front, followed by a burly man who looked like a small mountain.

They all recognized the burly man; he was a prisoner captured from the northern desert. The other two were also physically strong, but neither of them stood out in any particular way.

Xiao Yang stood up and said to Dilit, "Grand Preceptor Dilit, you wait patiently."

A short while later, Xiao Ce arrived with three people.

Da Lei followed behind Xiao Ce, his eyes seemingly constantly searching.

It seemed as if they were searching for some target.

Xiao Ce stepped forward and said, "Father, I was delayed on the way and that's why I'm late."

Xiao Dingbang was very patient with Xiao Ce at this moment, waving his hand: "It's alright...you've come at the right time."

With that, Xiao Dingbang stood up: "This hall is too cramped. If we want to have a martial arts competition, let's go to the martial arts arena. Everyone, move to the martial arts arena."
