716 Challenge (1)

Song s.h.i.+ was not interested in explaining why he looked down on this sword. Instead, he said, Now that your people have come looking for you, are you planning to play dead? What else do you have in mind?

Ill listen to Seniors instructions. Im now an ordinary maidservant of yours. Ning Ruqin said obediently.

She did not know what to do at this moment, and she had no right to decide what to do.

In this situation, whether it was her being saved or the two waves of people who were suppressed outside, it was no longer something she could interfere with.

Alright, then work hard here and learn how to cook from your maid.

Song s.h.i.+ was not prepared to let Ning Ruqin do anything for the time being. It was very simple. The main conflict had already become friction between the village and the two countries. The marriage was no longer a big deal.

Yes, Senior.

Ning Ruqin knew that she was not a princess at this moment. If she did not know anything, she would be too useless.

At this moment, the villagers had almost leveled up. They first looked at the Dragon Subduing Sword and were envious.

Stop looking. Theres another group of people for you to practice with. Those peoples treasures are more suitable for you. As long as you have the ability, you can take them as you please.

Song s.h.i.+ smiled evilly. As long as you defeat someone, you can take a worldly item from them. Village Chief, do as you see fit.

Yes, Young Master. Well let those barbarians rest for two days and use these people to practice.

The village chief chuckled and turned around. Everyone, get ready. Well start a new round of training. This time, its not a life-and-death battle. Theres no need to kill anyone. Just defeat the other party.

Lets see how strong these Imperial Guards and lackeys of Ning Country are.

We have another chance to obtain treasures. I wonder what these people brought. It should be more suitable for us.

A group of villagers rushed down happily.

The large black dog barked as well and brought his lackeys with him. Leave half of the things to us. Give me the treasure of that supervisor.

Master, Ill go too.

Little Fish flew up and transformed into a human form, bringing the other fishes with it. They did not dare to fight humans yet, so they could still try such a battle.

A group of people and animals rushed down like a swarm of bees, scaring Chen Qi, who was standing obediently at the foot of the mountain.

What whats going on?

He responded vigilantly. There was nothing he could do. A group of chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs rushed down. It was still quite scary.

Unexpectedly, the others only glanced at him and rushed over without attacking him.

Kid, your sword is not bad. Its mine from now on.

The large black dog squinted.

Its really my sword.

Chen Qi was even more certain when he heard that.

Big Black, why are you playing with your sword as a dog?

The village chief snorted. That sword is more suitable for me.

Grandpa Village Chief, how can you s.n.a.t.c.h it from a puppy like me?

The large black dog shook his head. I want to be the first dog to play with a sword. Cant I?

These words made many people unable to hold back their laughter. They knew that the large black dog had yet to understand the meaning behind the village chiefs words.

After pa.s.sing Chen Qi, they did not attack because Song s.h.i.+ had let this person off. Moreover, the sword that he had taken the initiative to take out was already very precious.

Now, he wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h the other fellows who were unwilling to take it out.

When they arrived under the big black hand, their eyes lit up as they stared at the fl.u.s.tered Ning people inside.

Chen Qi, who had followed over, was stunned for a moment. Were these guys going to attack?

Steward Wu, who was inside, felt his hair stand on end and said uneasily, You What are you doing?

Ill accompany you to exercise.

The large black dog grinned. Give me the best treasure you have. Ill be gentler later.

Steward Wus expression changed. Why should I give it to you? Didnt you say that you wont kill us?

I wont kill you, but I didnt say that I wont s.n.a.t.c.h your things. The large black dog said despicably.

You You cant do this.

Steward Wu said in panic, Were officials of the Imperial Court and the Imperial Guards. We have n.o.ble statuses. If you s.n.a.t.c.h us, youre going against the Imperial Family.

The village chief sneered when he heard that. Its already good enough that I didnt kill you. Whats there to be noisy about? Look at what happens next door. Compared to losing your lives, whats a little worldly possessions?

Steward Wu and the others expressions changed and they did not dare to retort. At the same time, they looked at Chen Qi with regret.

Steward Wu hurriedly said, If I offer my treasure now, can I do the same as him?

It was better to offer a treasure than to have all his a.s.sets s.n.a.t.c.hed away.

Its too late. You had a chance to be like him just now, but unfortunately, you couldnt bear to.

The village chief shook his head. Get ready. Let us practice. If we lose, a worldly item will be taken away.

Steward Wu could only cry. They were locked up here. Even if they could not be defeated in the beginning, they could not withstand the other party challenging them every day.

Chen Qi felt lucky when he heard this from outside.

Fortunately, he had expressed his sincerity back then. Otherwise, it would be the same now. Not only would he be beaten up, but his things would also be s.n.a.t.c.hed away.

Xu Hongniang chuckled. Do you have any weapons or treasures suitable for women? If you do, take the initiative to say it. Ill be gentler then.

I need some flying swords to cultivate the sword formation. Its not much, just 60-80 will do.

Old Mu sized up everyone and locked onto the guy with the sword in advance.

The others also stared at Chief Wu and the others as if they were looking at their own things.

Tie Datou snorted, Village Chief, how are we going to do this? We cant rush in and fight like we dealt with those barbarians, right?

The village chief said, Of course not. This time, well line up according to realm and age. The stronger ones will go first, and the older ones will go first. We can randomly choose someone to be our opponent. If we win, well take what they have on them. If we lose, we wont take it. Well wait for the next opportunity.

Thats for the best. Coincidentally, Im old. Its my turn to be the first. Old Mu chuckled in agreement.

No, were at a disadvantage if you compete in age. The large black dog was dissatisfied. He was only a few decades old now.

Realms come first. The realms are about the same. Theyre ranked by age.

The village chief added, Moreover, the people in front might not necessarily win.

But what if I deliberately choose weak opponents? What if those opponents consume a lot of energy to begin with?

Xu Hongniang also raised a question. Everyone chooses the weak ones first. Doesnt that mean that no one can challenge those with lower realms later on?

These words immediately received the support of many people.

It was very simple. If they started to choose to fight those who were a realm lower, the weakest batch of people might not have any opponents to choose from.

Village Chief, look at me. Im only a Postnatal martial artist. Theyre all Grandmasters. Theres no choice at all. Even if I choose, I wont be able to win.

Someone gloomily voiced his question.

Dont be anxious. Lets discuss it slowly. Theyre trapped here by Young Master and wont run away.

The village chief said helplessly, Lets talk about matchmaking first. Lets limit the range we can choose. For example, we cant exceed the difference of a small realm, let alone a large realm. We cant challenge the same person for the time being.

Everyone chattered and discussed animatedly like boiling water. It was very lively, causing the expressions of Steward Wu and the others who were discussed to darken. They were extremely depressed.
