Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 300 True
Seeing the young man who stood up at the front, all the practitioners in the venue were stunned.Then there was a commotion in the arena.

"Master Ying Xun?"

"What's going on? Am I not mistaken?"

"Did the former Qin go directly to his stepson? Is there such a shortage of people?"

"What a prince has been reduced to this point... No... The fight for the first place actually allows his stepson to appear on the stage. Could it be that the people of the former Qin Dynasty still want to struggle this year?"

"No matter how hard you struggle, you will be at the bottom. What's the use of doing so many tricks!"

Amidst the discussion among the crowd, Ying Baoyue, the last member of the team, stood on tiptoe, looked at the boy's back through the gap in the crowd, and was slightly taken aback.

For a moment, she seemed to see that person.

Amid countless people's puzzled and even dismissive eyes, the young man stood quietly with his thin back straight.

It's just a back view, but it can be seen that he has made up his mind.

The determination to win despite tradition.

All-or-nothing determination.

Ying Baoyue is very clear why the people around her react like this, because it is important to fight first, but after all, it is an early battle, not a finale. As a country's leader's stepson, he usually does not appear.

It's like keeping the secret weapon until the end. The stepson's chance of winning is indeed much higher, but it means that the bottom line is covered from the beginning.Not to mention the impact on the crowd battle, it will also have a great impact on the success of the stepson's personal performance.

After all, if he showed too many means in the battle for the first place, he would be easily targeted afterwards.

What's more, stepchildren are the focus of other practitioners' research breakthroughs.

Therefore, the representatives of a country participating in the battle for the first place actually have a certain sacrificial nature, and generally choose the backbone players or second-in-commands with a solid style in the team.

What kind of person to choose to participate in the first battle can also see the means of a country's stepson.

People still had a wait-and-see mentality towards the former Qin Dynasty, which had suffered repeated defeats.As the eldest son of the emperor back then, Ying Xun became the stepson of the former Qin Dynasty and attracted the attention of many people for a while.Facing the former Qin team with few talents, people are guessing who he will choose.

But no one thought of it.

Ying Xun chose himself.

"Isn't the former Qin wanting to bet everything on the first battle this year?"

"The last crowd battle was at the bottom, this time I want to be the first to enter the mountain..."

"If Mr. Ying Xun really played, he wouldn't be at the bottom this time, but if he lost the last game and didn't get the first place, the former Qin's face would be ruined..."

People were talking about it, and Ying Baoyue's eyes were a little complicated.

As others have said, Ying Xun, as a rank six with good abilities, would not be the bottom of Qin Qin if he participated in the battle for the first place.But in his capacity, it is not justified not to take the first place. If he does not take the first place, it will be a huge blow to the morale of the former Qin Dynasty.

This move can be described as extremely risky.

"Your Highness...Your Highness...you should think about it again..." At this moment, a sincere male voice came to everyone's ears.

Ying Baoyue took a closer look, and saw that just as Ying Xun was about to walk towards the newly built arena in the center of the venue, a young man who had been standing behind him during the review before suddenly reached out and grabbed him.

"Your Highness, Mr. Fang and the others have said that it is too risky for you to enter the battle first. Let me do it here. I will do my best..." The young man was full of worry, as if he was making the last effort to stop Ying Xun effort.

"Who is that?"

"It seems to be from the Huo family..."

"The Huo family from the former Qin Dynasty? The family of military officers second only to Guijia?"

"It's also a rank six. It seems that this fight for the first place was originally arranged for him to play, right?"

"Then Mr. Ying Xun insisted on going his own way? Those ex-Qin elders really can't control him..."

Huo family?

Ying Baoyue was startled when she heard the words, but at this moment, the hand beside her was suddenly held by someone.

She looked sideways at Gui Chen who suddenly paled beside her.

Gui Chen stared at the young man who was holding Ying Xun's left arm in the crowd and kept persuading him, before uttering a name in a daze.

"Huo Zhan?"

Huo Zhan?Ying Baoyue was slightly taken aback, looked at Gui Chen beside him and said softly, "Someone you know?"

Gui Chen lowered his head and smiled bitterly, and said softly, "How come I don't know people from the Huo family?"

Ying Baoyue's eyelashes drooped slightly, and she almost understood when she said this.

Back then, she didn't know much about the juniors, but she still knew more or less about the relationship between Guijia and the Huo family.

The three founders of Emperor Ying's subordinates were the Jin family who returned home, the Jin family who had been destroyed for treason, and the Mu family who had retired.

But under these three generals, there are some families of military officers second only to these three families, the most famous of which is the Huo family.

She remembered that the patriarch of the Huo family used to be a subordinate of Gui Chen's grandfather. It can be said that the Huo family used to rely on Gui's family, and the relationship between the two families was very close.

Judging by this Huo Zhan's age, he may have grown up with Gui Chen when he was young.

At this moment, Gui Chen spoke to verify her conjecture, "When I was young, he used to be... my friend."

That is childhood sweetheart.

But back in Guijia Courtyard, when Guichen and Guili were in an extremely difficult situation, Ying Baoyue never heard Guichen mention this person once.

And judging by Gui Chen's expression, what happened between these two people after that was obviously not so happy.

"Later, Mr. Ying Xun went to Southern Chu, and the Huo family also followed, and we never met again." Gui Chen said quietly.

That's it, Ying Baoyue nodded.

No wonder she didn't see the Huo family in the hall when Ying Hanri sent her away. Now it seems that the Huo family has become a so-called "old man".

That is to say, those ex-Qin aristocratic families who were disappointed with Ying Hanri in the former Qin Dynasty and turned to another royal family, Ying Xun.

"Although he has arrived in Southern Chu, he looks pretty good now." Gui Chen looked at the young man standing beside Ying Xun at the front and said lightly.

In fact, it is more than good.

Gui Chen looked down at his palm that was worn out by the hemp rope.

The young man who followed him back then stood at the front vigorously and was already a sixth-level practitioner.

But he wasted a lot of time in a small courtyard.

But at this moment, his hand was tightly held by another person, Ying Baoyue looked at him and smiled, "It's very interesting to meet an old friend here."

In a word, but the haze in Guichen's heart seemed to be blown away in an instant.

Gui Chen was taken aback, and then felt ashamed of what he had just thought.

"Yeah," he nodded.

He was able to stand here and see how he was when he was young, all because of the perseverance of the girl beside him.

He has no right to be depressed.

"It's just that you won't see your old friend play today." At this moment, Ying Baoyue looked at the front and said softly.

Gui Chen raised his head in a daze, only to see Ying Xun at the front of the crowd breaking free from Huo Zhan's hand.

"Ah Zhan, I have made up my mind on this matter, let it go."

The young prince's voice was very soft, but Huo Zhan froze when he heard it. Ying Xun took the opportunity to withdraw his hand and walked out of the former Qin team.

Looking at the ceremonial officer standing by the ring holding a wooden box, he clenched a black long sword by his waist and spoke lightly.

"Be the first to fight, the candidate for the former Qin Dynasty has been decided, and the lottery can begin."

Ying Baoyue's eyes were fixed.

Because the first battle is the final ranking of the six countries, so the lottery system is adopted for two-two matches to last several rounds.Winners play against winners for higher rankings, and losers play against losers for lower rankings.

Before the competition, the representatives of each country will draw lots to determine their opponent country in the first round.

Ying Xun was the first representative to stand up. Although the candidates from other countries have not yet been decided, they can already draw the country. Seeing the boy put his hand into the lottery box, all the onlookers widened their eyes.

"Qianqin is coming aggressively this time... Who will be the opponent in the first round?"

People are speculating.

However, after Ying Xun opened the note he had drawn, his pupils suddenly shrank.

"what happened?"

"Mr. Ying Xun's complexion is not very good, which country did he draw?"

Ying Baoyue also stared at that figure, the result of this time will affect all former Qin practitioners. .

And at this moment, the ceremony officer read out the country signed.

"Fight for the first round!"

"Former Qin versus Southern Chu!"

Southern Chu?

　It's like drawing cards in the African Emirates
