Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 2546: Atonement for Sins 9.0
Because there were so many people signing up, the rules had to be optimized and changed again. All those who signed up for the competition can randomly choose the arena and are no longer divided into groups by drawing lots.

In other words, at the beginning of the tournament, everyone can go on stage. The first pair to go on stage and win the competition will be the champion. The rest of the registered people can choose the challenge target among the seven champions according to their own wishes. They can choose the one who suits their eyes, the one they are sure they can beat, or the one they want to challenge but have no chance to challenge.

As soon as this rule came out, the entire Shen family army camp was in an uproar. Everyone had a favorite person whom they wanted to challenge, but they didn't know whether the person they were challenging would still be on the stage when it was their turn.

Everyone who has successfully registered must wear a wristband, which is distributed by Hongye and Merlin. When going on stage to compete, you must wear this wristband. If you do not have this wristband, you will be deemed as not having registered and will not be allowed to go on stage to compete.

The news that the Shen family army was going to hold a ring match was known throughout Jiapingguan City, and naturally it could not be hidden from the Wuding Marquis Mansion, which was only separated from the Duke's Mansion by a wall.'

The Third Master was not very interested in what the kid liked. According to him, he was old and did not like such passionate things. He would rather play cards and drink tea with his old brothers and friends.

Yan Bo, Qin Zheng and Qi Bo had the same idea as the Third Master. The children should let the children deal with their own problems, and they, the old brothers, should just live their old age leisurely. Unless the children cause trouble that they cannot handle themselves, it will not be too late for these old guys to step in.

But Xiao Fengqi, Qi Zhifeng and Ning Cheng were very much looking forward to it and were particularly interested in it, but they all knew in their hearts that they would not be able to go to the camp to watch this competition, which they considered to be a grand event.

Ning Cheng is young and it is time for him to study, so it is impossible for him to be distracted by such things. Old Madam Ning and the Ning sisters hope that he can learn martial arts, but only for self-protection, and other things are not important.

But Ning Cheng is at an age when he loves to join in the fun, and there is also Qi Zhifeng next to him, who is also the kind of person who goes wherever there is fun. They feel that they will regret it for the rest of their lives if they don't go to watch such a big excitement like the ring match.

But Qi Zhifeng, Xiao Fengqi, and even Ning Cheng all understood that for various reasons, they would definitely not be able to see it, especially Qi Zhifeng and Xiao Fengqi. No matter how deep their private friendship was, Shen Haolin and Shen Cha would not let them into the Shen Family Army camp. After all, they were Liao people, Liao people who had fought to the death with the Shen Family Army.

But even so, when Xiao Fengqi brought Qi Zhifeng to the Duke's Mansion to visit Xia Chen, he also made a little attempt and expressed to Shen Haolin and Shen Cha his desire to go and observe, but was not surprisingly rejected by Shen Haolin and Shen Cha.

"This was within our expectations. We were the ones who offended him." Xiao Fengqi waved his hand. "We almost embarrassed the Duke and the General."

"It's not a problem. You want to watch because you want to have fun. You probably don't want to pry for the two Yelu masters." Shen Cha smiled. "Even if you want to pry, don't be embarrassed. This is human nature."

"us."

"However." Shen Haolin looked at Shen Cha, Xue Ruitian, Bai Meng, and then looked at Xiao Fengqi and Qi Zhifeng who were embarrassed to touch their noses, and smiled faintly, "It's the last day, we can invite a few people to come and have a look."

"The last day?" Xiao Fengqi and Qi Zhifeng originally thought that they might not be able to participate in this competition, but they did not expect happiness to come so suddenly. They both widened their eyes and looked at Shen Haolin in surprise, "Duke, are you telling the truth?"

Shen Haolin didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly. Xiao Fengqi still couldn't believe it, and his eyes shifted from Shen Haolin to Shen Cha, Xue Ruitian and Bai Meng. Seeing them all nodded, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Not only you can watch, but the people of the whole city can watch, too." Shen Cha smiled, tapped the table in front of him, and said, "The round-robin battle among the seven champions on the last day should be very exciting, so we plan to let everyone watch. After all, we are about to set out to escort Wanyan Xi to the Kingdom of Jin, so we want to give the people confidence."

"Indeed." Qi Zhifeng touched his chin. "You say, how about I write a letter to Brother Nan and ask them to do the same thing in Linhuang Prefecture? No matter what we can get from the Jin Kingdom in the end, we have to let the people see our true strength, right?"

"Sure, and this will kill two birds with one stone."

"The general is right." Xiao Fengqi sneered, "Not only will it give the people confidence, it will also shock some people."

"Certain people?" Xue Ruitian and Bai Meng looked at each other. "It seems that the two Yelu masters have followed the clues and found the people they were supposed to find, right?"

"We can only say that we have found some of them, but there is still a part that requires further information from us."

Xiao Fengqi picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then looked at Xia Chen who was sitting in the corner looking at the account book carefully. He knew that this Prince Hui of Da Xia had become an envoy of Da Xia at a young age, leading a fleet of more than a dozen large ships to go out to sea and pay friendly visits to neighboring countries along the coast.

This sounds like a good job, but in reality it's a life-threatening situation and you're lucky to come back alive.

However, this prince not only returned safe and sound, but also brought back all the people he had taken out with him. This not only became a miracle for Daxia, but also an object of reverence for the surrounding countries, especially the Liao and Jin dynasties, which were not good at going to sea and had no affinity with the sea.

Now that he has met this legendary figure, Xiao Fengqi feels fortunate to have done three things in his life. What he never expected is that he would have the opportunity to have some interactions with this legendary figure, which is an unexpected surprise.

When Xia Chen was looking at the account book, he felt that someone was staring at him. He showed a faint, barely noticeable smile. The new head of the Xiao family was really interesting. His performance was quite beyond his expectations.

Xiao Fengqi also knew that this was not very polite, so he retracted his gaze and looked at Shen Haolin, Shen Cha and Xue Ruitian.

"With the help of Prince Hui, I think these account books will be sorted out soon." He really stood up and bowed deeply to Xia Chen who looked up at him, "Please take care of it, Your Majesty. We also want to see how much money these daring guys have extorted for Master Falian and the Qinglian Sect over the years, and how many people they have persecuted."

"Mr. Xiao, you are too polite. This is also my responsibility. If we can figure out the ins and outs here as soon as possible, we can find the right medicine and get the evidence against Master Falian and the Qinglian Sect." Xia Chen waved his hand gently, "However, there are some issues that still require Mr. Xiao's help."

"We must do our best."
