Zhuge calmly said to the heads of the ten sects and eight sects: "The lord of Xiling will participate in the competition of Qi's selected generals tomorrow, and the husband of Xiling will also teach her some martial arts. I will not go to the mountain to have dinner with you tonight. I hope

Please forgive me."

Xu Feng calmly saluted Zhuge and said: "Our lord's martial arts skills are entrusted to Xiling Xianggong!"

Zhao Da also saluted Zhuge calmly and said, "It's okay if you don't drink wine and eat meat tonight! However, on August 15th, the wedding banquet of the Lord of Xiling and the Duke of Xiling, we will definitely get you drunk twice as much!"

Although everyone deliberately teased Zhuge Rongrong, they all saluted him and then turned around and went down the mountain.

On the bluestone platform, Zhuge Rongrong and Shu'er saw that Zhuge Eunji was entangled by Shu King Wuxie and had no time to separate, so they could only look at each other and smile.

The two of them walked to Guanzhu Pavilion, and Shu'er asked: "Mr. Xiling, didn't you say that you didn't stop me or help me in the selection of generals in Qi State? Why do you want to teach me martial arts again?"

Zhuge calmly argued: "In that case, it was said by the 'Restoration Leader' and has nothing to do with the 'Mr.

The smoke has cleared, Xiling Xianggong wants to teach the Xiling lord martial arts, who in the world can take care of it?"

Shu'er chuckled and said jokingly: "You are a person who always likes to win without force! You have taught me many martial arts moves, but what I want to learn the most is actually your 'win without force'! Why don't I do it tomorrow?

No more competition. When you defeat the eight generals and successfully become the leader of the Restoration Alliance, just appoint me as the general of Qi!"

Zhuge calmly shook his head and said: "Although the Xiling Lord can add martial arts to the Xiling Lord, the leader of the Restoration Alliance cannot use power for personal gain, and the general of Qi cannot live in vain."

The two stepped into Guanzhu Pavilion, and Zhuge said calmly: "Since my lord is going to compete with the old people of Qi State, he naturally needs to know some martial arts of Qi State in order to convince the crowd. Qi State's 'Autumn Water Sword' is tragic and strong, and is made with

The skill of close combat with a dagger. But tomorrow you have to use a long sword, and it is difficult to fully utilize the advantages of the Qiushui Sword. So I will only teach you a few moves. You mix it with the Wuyi Sword and don’t use it often, just to tell Qi Guojiu

Man, you have only learned the most exquisite set of swordsmanship in Qi. You can also use a long sword to fight in close quarters. The "Xuanyan Sword" that everyone in the Shu Palace guards knows is the most powerful. So before dinner, I gave you a hasty lesson

How many moves do you have for the Qiu Shui Sword? After dinner, I will teach you a complete set of the 'Xuanyan Sword'. Tomorrow you can just use your old men from the Qi State to practice your sword."

Early the next morning, warriors from the four countries once again gathered at the bluestone platform on the top of Yilan Mountain.

The first person from Qi State to appear was none other than the adopted daughter of Xiao Xun, the young master of Qi State. Yan Shu was known as the "Lord of Xiling" by people in the world.

Shu'er was wearing black Sichuan women's clothing. Although she looked thin in front of more than a hundred men on the bluestone platform, she was capable and upright, with bright eyes, and she had the aura of a woman who would not be outdone by men. She held the King of Huai in her hand

Sword, the Qi people who came up to challenge said concisely and concisely: "I am Yan Shu, please give me advice from the warrior!"

The Qi man put a long knife on his shoulder, looked down at Shu'er disdainfully, and said loudly: "I am Lei Yun, the commander of thousands of men under the command of General Xiao Hui, the left wing commander of the Dragon Beard Army of Qi State! Princess Xiling, not to mention

There are no more than a thousand "heroes" from the ten sects and eight sects in Xiling; not to mention that at your age, you were not even born when Qi was destroyed, so how could you have the passion to restore the country?

Which country are you from, Chen, Chu, or Shu? Just because you are the righteous daughter of the country’s leader and the married princess of the old alliance of Qi and Wei, Lei Yun will give you three moves today!”

Shu'er didn't make any move, but raised his eyebrows and smiled, saying: "Warrior Lei, I wonder if your sword skills are better than your words?"

Lei Yun said displeasedly: "The martial arts competition is not a child's play. If you insist on competing, please act quickly!"

Shu'er shook his head and said: "I've already given you three moves in your pretentious skills just now. Thunder Warrior, you haven't finished your pretentious skills yet, so there's no need to rush to compete."

Lei Yun asked angrily: "What a fool! What three moves did you give me?"

Shu'er replied: "First, you said that the ten sects and eight sects of Xiling have less than a thousand people, which means that I, the lord of Xiling, am not qualified to compete with thousands of warriors like Lei Yongshi. Second, you said that I am young and do not have the experience.

The hatred of my family and country when the Qi State was destroyed means that I am not qualified to be the vanguard general of the Qi State's restoration army. Thirdly, you say you don't know which country I am from. Although I recognize the country's leader as my adopted father, my blood is not the same.

Not belonging to the royal family of Qi means that I am not qualified to fight alongside the Qi army. Warrior Lei, did I make any mistakes in these three statements?"

Lei Yun snorted and said, "All three are correct!"

Shu'er said: "Then let me refute. First, although there are less than a thousand brothers from the ten sects and eight sects of Xiling, the quality of the soldiers is more important than the number. The talent of a general is not measured by how many subordinates he has commanded, but by how many subordinates he has commanded.

It is necessary to know how to use elite soldiers to defeat more with less. In the three years since I became the lord of Xiling, the brothers in Xiling no longer do underworld business, but make money every day through white-dealing business, and the "Xiling bandits" have also become

'Heroes of Xiling'. I would like to ask you, when Warrior Lei was a captain of thousands, if he only won battles but never lost, then why was the state of Qi destroyed? If he was a captain of thousands, how many soldiers were killed or wounded under his command?

But there are still as many people from ten sects and eight sects in Xiling?"

The warriors from the four countries all held their breaths and listened to the rare bickering on the competition ground. For a while, the only sound on the bluestone platform was the sound of waterfalls in the distance and the sound of veins popping out of thunder clouds.

Shu'er continued: "Secondly, I am indeed young and did not witness the tragic situation when Qi and Wei were destroyed, but I am also an orphan who was exiled to Kyushu due to the war. Although I have never seen the bloody Wei Kingdom

Dongyang and the Jade Capital of Qi State, but every drop of blood flowing in my body always reminds me that the parents I have never seen since I was born, the parents I will never see again no matter how much I hope, they are buried in the Jade City

, the other one was also wiped out in the flames of war. If every descendant of Qi Wei who is similar to me in age is not qualified to join the Restoration Army because he has not witnessed the tragedy of destroying the country with his own eyes, then I would like to ask Warrior Lei, are all the Restoration Army veterans?

Are only weak and disabled generals satisfactory?"

Lei Yun was speechless.

Shu'er spoke happily, amplified his voice, and said in a cadence: "Thirdly, as to which country I am from and why I can recognize the leader of the Qi State as my adoptive father, I just want to say: When I was in the Chu State, I met the young prince of Prince Sheng's Mansion.

I am an acquaintance of eight worshippers. When I was in the Chen State, I took over half of the Chen State’s business community. When I was in the Shu State, I became the lord of Xiling. When I was in the Zhao State, King Zhao gave me the head of the Pingliang Chamber of Commerce. When I was in the Song State, I dared to

Publicly provoking the Empress Dowager of the Song Kingdom, she dared to hold the King of Song hostage and escaped with her body intact. May I ask Warrior Lei, even the King of Song is not afraid of me. I am a wealthy businessman of the Chen Kingdom, and kindly invited me to serve as an official in the Song Kingdom. Now that Qi Wei has returned to the country, it is the time to hire someone. My adoptive father

You have never asked me which country I am from. If the Thunder Warrior can one day conquer all countries, I will tell you which country I am from."

Lei Yun became angry at his ignorance: "Lord Xiling, since you are so great, it seems that there is no need to compete in martial arts. You can win over others just by talking!"

Shu'er said: "The Qi Wei Allied Forces may not necessarily be able to recruit many soldiers by recruiting troops, so if the generals of Qi can defeat others without fighting, wouldn't it be the best strategy? Warrior Lei, I'm done. I'm done with my words.
Chapter completed!
