"That scum!"
Yuwen Qiang furrowed his brows as he glared in Tang Yong's direction.
At that moment, the official had summoned the top three. He had originally been very curious about Tang Yong, but when he saw the lunatic who had stepped on his shoes and taken advantage of his goddess, he was too angry to pay attention to who Tang Yong was.
That bastard!
How could he be so shameless?
My goddess must be too embarrassed to expose him because of her reputation!
It doesn't matter if my goddess doesn't expose him. I will challenge him to a duel after the parade is over!
Hmph, he is just a piece of trash from a noble family. I am the fourth on the Martial Roll. I will beat him into a fool!
Yuwen Qiang gritted his teeth as he glared at Tang Yong, plotting how to humiliate him.
Because Tang Yong was too absorbed in his thoughts, he didn't even notice when Tang Yong took two steps forward. It was his gentle-looking companion who pulled Tang Yong's sleeve and said, "Brother Yuwen, Brother Yuwen, I'm not seeing things, right?
Why did that lunatic go out with Han Xuefei?
He can't be that Tang Yong who got first place, right? "
Yuwen Qiang's eyes widened at his companion's reminder. He looked at Tang Yong in shock and said loudly, "Impossible!
He is just an ordinary noble. How could he be the first on the Martial Roll? "
His voice was so loud that it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Silence!"
The Dragon Martial Army's commander, Gao Feng, glared at Yuwen Qiang. His thunderous voice exploded in Yuwen Qiang's ears, making him dizzy and seeing stars.
However, he knew that this was a warning from the commander. He was so scared that he immediately shut his mouth and didn't dare say anything else.
This small interlude didn't delay anything. Tang Yong walked out of the crowd and stood next to Han Xuefei. Another person was already standing on the other side of Han Xuefei. That person was Zhuge Yu!
Zhuge Yu recognized Tang Yong at a glance because he had met him once in the forest. He narrowed his eyes and sized Tang Yong up from head to toe. He sneered and said, "I didn't expect that I would underestimate you that day. You're ranked first on the Martial Roll!
You have hidden your strength well! "
Zhuge Yu's words were a little strange. Han Xuefei frowned when she heard this. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but there were some things that she didn't say in the end.
In fact, most people would have admitted defeat in the face of Zhuge Yu's provocation. After all, his father was the prime minister, the most powerful person in the current dynasty. His disciples were all over the Han Tang. His power was even more terrifying than some of the wealthy families!
However, Tang Yong didn't admit defeat in the face of this situation. He looked at the arrogant Zhuge Yu in front of him and said indifferently, "Thank you for the compliment!"
Zhuge Yu saw that Tang Yong's face didn't change at all. Instead, he accepted his mockery as a matter of course and shamelessly took it as a compliment. Zhuge Yu's breath immediately stopped. He had never seen this kind of behavior before!
Shouldn't a normal person be angry after being mocked?
Why is this guy's brain wired differently from a normal person's?
However, Zhuge Yu didn't dwell on this issue. In his opinion, Tang Yong was already a fish on the chopping board. It would be a piece of cake to squash him later. There was really no need for him to argue with him at this time.
Then, he looked at Tang Yong with a sneer and followed the official into the hall.
The three of them went up the side stairs and entered the range of the main hall. The magnificent palace in front of them was getting closer and closer. Just now, when they looked at it from afar, they only thought it was a magnificent building. However, when they really walked in, they felt that there was an indescribable force in the building that weighed heavily on their bodies. The three of them had low cultivation. The moment they walked into the main hall, they felt that their breathing suddenly became heavy.
"Your Majesty, the three of them have been brought here!"
"Bring them in!" An incomparably majestic voice came from the main hall.
This was the voice of the current Han Tang Emperor, who was also the most powerful person among the Han Tang Martial Kings!
Tang Yong trembled with excitement. Zhuge Yu noticed this scene and couldn't help but smile disdainfully. He raised his head and entered the hall.
On the other hand, Han Xuefei pulled Tang Yong's sleeve and pulled him back to reality. He immediately followed the two people and respectfully entered the hall.
Tang Yong took advantage of the time when he got up and glanced at the Emperor. The Emperor was sitting on the dragon throne. Although he looked a little thin, his aura was unusually strong. The golden dragon robe on him was like a real dragon coiling on the dragon throne, making people not dare to look directly at him.
"You are the top three masters in the new round of the martial arts roll?
Not bad, not bad. Come and see the rewards! "
His Majesty seemed to be distracted. However, his gaze seemed to have only swept across the three of them. After saying a few simple words, he nodded at the yellow-clothed attendant beside him. Then, the yellow-clothed attendant held a test paper and was about to read it out.
At this moment, a civil official suddenly walked out from the row of civil officials and shouted, "Your Majesty, I think it's a little inappropriate to make such a hasty decision on the martial arts roll. I heard that the first place of this year's martial arts roll is only a Martial Warrior. Moreover, the demonic beasts that he hunted were not hunted by his own strength, but picked up in the forest. A guy like him who has no strength and only relies on luck and trickery is not strong enough to convince the masses. If he becomes the role model for martial artists, our Han Tang Dynasty may become the laughing stock of the Ten Nations!"
As soon as the civil official finished speaking, many of the civil officials immediately chimed in. Some said that Tang Yong was not strong enough, while another said that Tang Yong was not suitable to be the role model for martial artists. Han Xuefei and Zhuge Yu were more suitable.
Hearing this, Tang Yong was immediately a little annoyed. Although the demonic beasts that he hunted were picked up, the rules of the martial arts roll did not state that the demonic beasts that were picked up would not be on the roll!
'Those people who bought and sold the spots don't care about it and instead came to find trouble with me. Aren't they going too far!?'
When Tang Yong glanced at the crowd, he inadvertently glanced at Zhuge Yu, only to see that the corners of his mouth were slightly raised and he had a smug expression on his face.
He seemed to be saying, "Look, even if you get first place, I'll still have the ability to snatch it from you."
Seeing how arrogant Zhuge Yu was, Tang Yong was even more infuriated. He clenched his fists and was about to refute these guys when a middle-aged man who resembled Zhuge Yu, who was in the first row of civil officials, bowed slightly and bowed.
He said indifferently, "Your Majesty, since everyone has doubts about the first place of this year's martial arts roll, why don't you let me test it out? If he's really outstanding, the first place of the martial arts roll will naturally belong to him. If he's not strong enough, we can appoint someone else. After all, this year's martial arts roll experts still have to participate in the Ten Nations Conference."
After the middle-aged man said that, the Han Tang emperor's expression seemed to have changed. After he scanned Tang Yong with his deep eyes, Tang Yong felt as if he was being stared at by a demonic beast, and he felt a terrifying sense of suffocation.
Fortunately, that feeling was fleeting.
The Han Tang emperor slowly nodded at the middle-aged man and said, "I approve, but the difference in strength between the two of you is too great. You have to seal your strength at the Martial Warrior stage."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After the middle-aged man said that, he looked up at Tang Yong, but his gaze was indifferent, as if he didn't take Tang Yong seriously at all.
The middle-aged man didn't recognize Tang Yong, but Tang Yong recognized him. He was Zhuge Yu's father, the Prime Minister of the dynasty, Zhuge Jin!
Don't be fooled by his refined appearance. In fact, when it came to fighting strength, he was a bit stronger than Grand General Qin.
'Let Tang Yong fight with me?'
