I Don't Know Martial Art Chapter 104

Chapter 104 - The Great Games

The starting point of the hunting grounds was a huge circular plaza. Hundreds of tents of uniform color had already been erected within the plaza. It was like an ancient army camp, neatly arranged in the center.

There were different flags everywhere outside of the tent. On the tent, there was the surname of the person that lived in the tent. That was also the symbol that was used to identify other people when hunting.

At this moment, the entire camp was surrounded by wooden fences. Thousands of soldiers were standing guard on all sides to prevent anyone from entering.

Those who were able to enter the hunting grounds were all contestants who had received permission from the City Lord's Mansion. Of course, with Fatty Niu's status, no one would dare to stop him.

Although other citizens could not partic.i.p.ate personally, they could still watch from outside the fence. Looking at the armored bows and the figures riding on big horses, the children would cheer and jump about excitedly, as if they were riding on horses as well.

As the fat cow brought the carriage into the campsite, she immediately attracted the attention of a group of people in the plaza.

Many of their faces were familiar. They belonged to the young masters of the aristocratic families of the An Lin Party. They occupied the most central area of the square and were looking in the direction of Ox Fatty.

When they saw the enormous round armor that resembled a turtle sh.e.l.l on Fatty Niu, the members of the An Lin Party all revealed expressions of ridicule and ridicule.

As for Fatty Niu, he did not seem to mind this at all. He rode his horse and swaggered forward!

A high platform had been set up in the middle of the square. It was the sacrificial altar before the compet.i.tion. Before the ceremony, the City Lord of Qin Feng City needed to burn incense on the altar, praying for the wind and rain to calm down and for everything to come to fruition!

At this moment, Fatty Niu was riding a BMW into the crowd. He did not dismount, but he directly rode his horse into the crowd, scaring those aristocratic children of the An Lin Party who had mocked him a moment ago into retreating!

Upon seeing this, a smile appeared on the fat ox's face.

He hated these insidious fellows to the bones, and couldn't wait to directly ride his horse over them.

Only when they were the closest to the high platform did Fatty Niu rein himself from the reins and dismount from his horse.

It was because his weight was really too heavy. When he got off the horse, the body of the horse tilted and it almost threw Fatty Niu out. The latter staggered and very embarra.s.sedly stood firm.

"Haha, young master Niu is indeed extraordinary. Even the next horse is so impressive." Just as Fatty Niu steadied his body, he heard a mocking voice coming from his side.

The person who spoke was none other than the Central Region's Yang Guanglin. The latter was currently looking at him with a mocking expression.

"Hmph. I know your Grandpa Ox is extraordinary, but you still didn't come over and kneel down. What is the meaning of saying something with your head back down?"

Fatty Niu spoke very arrogantly. A few days ago, the latter had been beaten up by the An Lin Party and had yet to vent out his anger. Now, this Yang Guanglin had actually b.u.mped into him!

Hearing this, Yang Guanglin's face slightly changed, but he still sneered and said, "It's fine if some people look like pigs, but I didn't expect them to have pig brains. What a pity."

"F * ck your grandpa! If you have a temper, then come up and fight! Stop talking nonsense and act like a woman! Just by looking at your appearance, I get angry! I really suspect that you have no b.a.l.l.s!"

Fatty Niu was a genuine rogue, he did not have any cold sneers on his face. He scolded without any hesitation. He was not used to it at all, not to mention, he was insulting this bunch of Anlins.

This guy's words could be said to be poisonous. Yang Guanglin, who had a calm demeanor and a reserved demeanor, was immediately scolded out of his rage. The latter looked at the fat cow with a dark expression.

"d.a.m.n fat pig, do you want to die?"

Fatty Niu puffed out his chest, patting his armor as he shouted, "If you have a temper, then fight with your Grandpa Niu! Look, I'm not afraid of you!"

Yang Guanglin was angered to the point that he pulled out his waist blade and was about to attack. With his family background, there was no need to fear the fat cow at all!

"The slap I gave you that day, looks like it wasn't enough or was it a lesson?"

At this moment, a cold voice was heard. The curtain of the carriage behind Fatty Niu was lifted and a young man walked out! A beautiful maid followed behind him. Who else could it be other than Xiang Yun!?

The moment they heard Xiang Yun's voice, the expressions of the Eastwoods clan members changed.

This was especially true for Yang Guanglin. Upon hearing Xiang Yun mention what had happened a few days ago in the Phoenix Pavilion, he was so angry that his face turned ashen, and his body froze in place as he glared at Xiang Yun.

Xiang Yun paid no heed to this. He leisurely stepped down from the carriage, and the Eastwoods Sect disciples who had been nearing the carriage subconsciously took a few steps back, allowing him to exit the open s.p.a.ce.

A few days ago, when they had witnessed Xiang Yun's abilities, they were still instinctively fearful of him.

Xiang Yun ignored this group of people as he continued instructing his subordinates, bringing Fatty Niu and his carriage to the horse stables to drink. Turning around, he brought Lin Wan'er along to the high platform.

When he pa.s.sed by Yang Guanglin, he whispered to him.

"As a person, you should keep a low profile."

Yang Guanglin was so angry that his palm turned white, he wanted nothing more than to chop the guy in front of him, but he could only suppress the rage in his heart and sneer inside.

"Right now, I'll let you be proud for a while. Later, I'll make you cry so much that you won't even be able to cry!"

Yang Guanglin turned around and looked at Li Donglai, who was beside him. Both of them had a sinister smile on their faces.

"Brother Dong Lai, has everything been arranged?"

"Rest a.s.sured, Brother Yang. In a while, Brother Deng Huan and I will personally take care of this matter. When that happens, we will definitely teach that kid a lesson. Hehe!"

City Lord Lu Yongchang was already standing in the center of the altar. In front of him was a huge pentagonal porcelain vat.

In the middle of the pot was a round area with a bowl of yellow soil. Lu Yongchang was holding three pillars of fragrance in his hand. When the time came, he would burn the incense and offer sacrifices to them. This was Qin Feng City's custom.

As the crown prince, Xiang Yun naturally had a high status. Even in this sacred moment of sacrifice, he would not stand together with the n.o.ble sons below the stage. Instead, he would ascend the sacrificial altar and stand side by side with Lu Yongchang.

Xiang Yun had just stepped onto the stage when he saw two familiar faces. One of them was the eighth prince, Xiang Changan, currently gnashing his teeth as he glared at him.

The other person was the Seventh Princess, Xiang Fei, whom Xiang Yun least wanted to see. At this moment, the latter's apathetic gaze swept over Xiang Yun, just like back in the Spring Pavilion, frighteningly ice-cold.

The two of them looked at Xiang Yun with a rather unfriendly gaze. Xiang Yun naturally did not bring embarra.s.sment to himself by speaking to them. He too stood at Lu Yongchang's side and warmly greeted City Lord Lu.

Moments later, the time was up. Lu Yongchang lit the incense and kowtowed towards the sky, muttering some incantations. Amidst the clamoring of the crowd, he inserted three incense sticks into the soil in the center of the porcelain vat.

The latter looked at the eager crowd below and said loudly: "Everyone, after the three incense sticks have burnt, the compet.i.tion will officially begin when the gong chimes. Now everyone can go back to your own tents and prepare!"

"This hunt is still three days long. With this land as the boundary, we will still be unable to cross the Silvermoon Mountain Range!" The prey you obtain is all owned by you. Those who get the best points, you can obtain a piece of sable beast skin! "

"Sable beast skin!"

As soon as they heard the reward from City Lord Lu, everyone's eyes lit up in surprise.

One must know that there were many n.o.ble sons and disciples present, and all of them were existences with high eyesight. There were not many things that could surprise them, and this sable and animal hide could really be considered a piece.

This was because sable was a type of Six-Cloud Cloud Beast that could only be found in the northwestern part of the Arctic Mountain Range. Although its grade was not high and its combat ability was not tyrannical, it was extremely rare and difficult to find.

The latter's fur was extremely smooth and supple. Moreover, it carried a natural lilac hue. Under the illumination of the sun, it was sparkling with a rainbow-colored l.u.s.ter. It was extremely gorgeous and dazzling.

In the Wind Cloud Kingdom, there was a saying that 'ten thousand gold would be difficult to obtain snow silk, not even comparable to a sable's skin'.

To a woman who loved beauty, the sable skin was incomparably alluring. Almost all the women yearned to possess a shawl or jewelry made from the skin of a sable.

Amongst the crowd, many of the young masters were people who were born to be in the prime of their lives. To such a powerful and destructive treasure in the eyes of a woman, it naturally became something that they urgently wanted.

For a time, many people's eyes revealed a fervent look. They wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h this sable and give it to the girl they liked.

Even the Seventh Princess Xiang Fei, who always had a cold and stern expression on the high platform, could not help but reveal an moved expression. Clearly, she was somewhat moved by the sable's animal skin.

Seeing this, Xiang Chang An hurriedly patted his chest and said to Xiang Fei.

"Seventh Sister, if you want this sable beast skin, just hand it to Eighth Brother. I'll definitely seize the number one spot!"

Hearing this, Xiang Fei replied in an indifferent tone, "No need. I'll just take first place myself!"

This simple sentence rendered the eighth prince, Xiang Chang'an, speechless for a long time. There was no helping it, who told his royal sister to be so intrepid? She was already a middle Huang Yun expert, and to say that she would take first place was no exaggeration.

"Then I'll be your a.s.sistant, Seventh Sister." Xiang Chang An said with a smile.

This time, he did not care much about this first place candidate. What he cared about the most was whether or not he could get rid of Xiang Yun and get back the face of the An Lin Party.

However, Xiang Fei said bluntly, "Forget it. Don't drag me down."

"Royal Sis, we're siblings." Xiang Changan felt like crying, but had no tears.

After the sacrifices were done, everyone headed for their own tents. Xiang Yun then brought Lin Wan'er with him to theirs.

These tents were arranged in a very particular way. In the center, there were four tents. The strange thing was, the four tents were three big and one small.

The three of them were about the size of a small building while the one in the middle was about the size of a small house.

So these three tents had been prepared for the royal family's disciples, Xiang Yun, Xiang Fei, and Xiang Chang An. As for the small tent, it had been prepared for him by Lu Yongchang.

There was no other way. As the City Lord of Qin Feng City, he naturally had to be in the center in order to protect Xiang Yun and the other two.

However, he naturally did not dare to stay in a tent of the same size as the three of them. He could only set up a small tent next to their tent.

On the way to the camp, Xiang Changan was the first to see his tent. He brought his two servants in. Xiang Yun's tent, however, was next to Xiang Fei's, so the two of them could not help but walk side by side.

There was no one to his left or right. Xiang Yun glanced at the cold Xiang Fei, his heart a little hesitant.

Although this woman had been extremely vicious to him in the past and had almost killed him several times, Xiang Yun had not hated her as much as she had.

Xiang Yun could also be considered to be clear on this. The reason why Xiang'er was acting this way was because he had offended her in bed that day.

Although he didn't do it on purpose, the women of Seven Stars Continent were similar to the ancient people of Earth. Women all valued their innocence, and it was more or less the same.

Yet, Xiang Yun had actually attacked an important part of Xiang Fei's body. Xiang Fei naturally wished she could hack herself into pieces.

After that, under the watchful gaze of the crowd, he even set her, a princess of a powerful country, on the stage. One could only imagine how much of an insult and shock he had caused to the latter.

When he thought of this, Xiang Yun's hatred for Xiang Fei ran out. Instead, he felt a tinge of guilt.

"Cough cough!"

Clearing his throat, Xiang Yun turned around and said seemingly casually.

"Princess, I didn't expect that you would be interested in partic.i.p.ating in the Qin Feng city hunting. Why didn't you tell me earlier, I could have come to greet you at the city gates."

Hearing this, Xiang Fei who was by Xiang Yun's side shot a glance at him, the corners of her lips actually curving upwards. Her impeccable appearance was like melted ice, causing Xiang Yun to be a little dazed for a moment.

The latter thought to herself, "Oh my G.o.d, this woman's smile is so beautiful!"

However, in the next moment, the words that came out of Xiang Fei's mouth made Xiang Yun think differently.

Although Xiang Fei had a smile on her face, her voice was incomparably cold!

"I just want to see how you were eaten by those Cloud Beasts!"

Finished speaking, Xiang Fei turned and walked into her own tent, leaving Xiang Yun to stand alone in the cold wind!
