Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 593 Wind and Rain
The first round of battle...

Ying Baoyue, who thought that Li Ji's state was not right, was about to speak up when he heard the words.What he said meant that he would at least watch the first day of the match and not do anything else.

For the time being, this person shouldn't need to worry too much.

Thinking of this, Ying Baoyue raised her head to look at him and smiled.

"I won't lose."

Li Ji stared at the girl under the moonlight, his eyes lingered slightly on her eyes, then looked away the next moment and said, "Well, then I'm looking forward to it."

Looking forward to seeing how she will face the next real battle.

During the time she was asleep, all the betting games in the major gambling houses in Danyang City regarding the outcome of the subsequent battle had already been opened.

The primary ceremony is a grand event in Danyang City, and the last round of one-on-one battles can most arouse people's blood, and the enthusiasm for betting is unprecedentedly high.

"Did you know that your odds in the first round of the match are one to nine." Li Ji said.

"One to nine..." Ying Baoyue asked in a daze, "Bet me to win?"

Li Ji shook his head, "You lose the bet."

"Then why don't you hurry up and buy it, I'll win if you buy it," Ying Baoyue stood up abruptly and looked at him solemnly, "Don't let this opportunity to make a fortune pass by."

She has no money, otherwise she would have asked Gui Chen to buy her a lot to win.

Unexpectedly, she would have such a reaction, Li Ji said in a daze, "Zhao Guang should buy it."

How did it get involved in making money?

He brought this up to let her know that even though she had won so many top rankings before, people still don't think highly of her winning percentage in battles.

After all, no one would joke about money.

In one-on-one arena battles, every child from aristocratic families who can be promoted to the sixth rank can be said to have experienced a hundred battles.They may not be good at medicine, poison, or chess, but they must be good at fighting in the arena.

At the same time, there is something special about the arena battle in the future.

For practitioners who were not ranked well in the previous rounds, the last round of the match is the last chance to stand up.

Whether it is for the cultivator himself or the family behind him, it is the last fight.

The battle in the arena is dangerous, and the danger is here.

Li Ji stared at Ying Baoyue's face, his eyes slightly focused.

The practitioners and aristocratic families who were lagging behind before will use all the means to win in this round.

The top practitioners before the start of this round are the main targets of these people.

Only because the final victory of the primary ceremony depends on the ranking, the total points of each round are sorted in order, and only those with the highest ranking are eligible to participate in the intermediate ceremony.

In this case, you can improve your ranking by squeezing out the practitioners who were previously ranked high.

When one person falls, thousands of people climb up.

Therefore, the final round of the individual battle in the preliminary ceremony will be a group arena battle.It was the dirtiest, most chaotic, and most intense round of duel among all the rounds of the Beginning Ceremony.

For practitioners, the ranking in the primary ceremony represents fame, wealth, and countless cultivation resources.

Become famous all over the world in one fell swoop.

And this last round of battle is everyone's last chance to fight for their own future.

No one can predict what those practitioners will sell for this opportunity.

What Li Ji could foresee at this time was that for the woman in front of him, the last round of the day after tomorrow would be very dangerous.

If there is any practitioner in Danyang City that others are most eager to tear down, it must be her.

Li Ji stared at Ying Baoyue and closed his eyes.

Countless people stretched out their hands towards her in the darkness, just wanting to pull her down until she fell into the mud pit.

He could see it, and the girl in front of him must also feel it.

But he didn't see the slightest fear on her face.

"Thank you so much this time," Ying Baoyue generously took the paper bag from Li Ji's hand, wrapped the pill carefully and said with a smile, "I owe you another favor."

"It's nothing." Li Ji said lightly.

The day after tomorrow, this woman will do whatever it takes to compete for the top spot with those experienced practitioners who are higher in the ring than her. What he has done is just a drop in the bucket.

What really happened, she couldn't stop her messing up.

What he can do is to make her less painful in a short time, at least.

"Then I'm going back to sleep," Ying Baoyue said with a smile, "good night."

"Yes," Li Ji nodded.

Watching the back of the girl walking back into the house, Li Ji looked at the brightly lit streets in Danyang City in the distance.

Under those lights, there must be pairs of unwilling eyes.

The night before the start of the battle was very quiet, but in this quietness, the entire Danyang City was under a dark tide.

……

……

No one knows where the dark tide is surging, but at dawn the next day, on the last day before the beginning of the primary ceremony, the bright waves from the Shanhai Continent came first.

Ying Baoyue, who had finished talking with Li Ji at night, didn't get up early, but when she woke up in the morning, news of an explosion had already spread throughout Danyang City.

"The former King of Qin is getting married!"

"The marriage of the former Qin State! Change to a new queen!"

The shrill shouts of the children delivering the news echoed throughout Danyang City, and all the people from the former Qin Dynasty who heard the news opened their eyes wide in astonishment, unable to speak for a long time.

In the Qing'an Courtyard, the former Qin people who heard the news were also stunned.

Ying Baoyue and Gui Chen also sat in the yard speechless when they heard the news.

It should be said that her elder brother with this body got married really fast.

Just at this time, the news came, which made them become popular again in the city of Danyang.

"Your Majesty...the wedding was so soon after the engagement was made..."

"The previous queen really said she would be abolished..."

"I heard that someone has already carried it into the Efang Palace..."

"It's estimated that the child will be born in less than half a year..."

There was a lot of discussion in the street.

Marriages between royal families often require a year or so of preparation because of the cumbersome etiquette and interest relationships involved. Even if a good partner is found in advance, it takes several months to prepare for the ceremony in the palace.

But at this time, the marriage between Ying Hanri and the princess of the Northern Wei Dynasty was less than a month away from being announced, so I'm afraid it was only enough for the princess of the Northern Wei Dynasty to rush to the former Qin Dynasty.

And after the princess arrived, depending on the time, Ying Han directly held the wedding.

This speed is also the one who has not seen the ancients before and will not see the comers after.

It was almost as if he was afraid that the people of the Northern Wei Dynasty would regret it.

Lady Yao, who got the news from Qing'an Courtyard, peeked at Ying Baoyue who was on the side. Ying Baoyue's engagement was almost half a year earlier than Ying Hanri's, but at this time Ying Hanri was the first to get married.

But now that they are married, this matter also means that there is no room for regret.

Ying Baoyue's expression was complicated. Since then, the royal family of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the royal family of the former Qin Dynasty have become relatives by marriage.

In the eyes of most people, although the former King of Qin demeaned himself, judging from the results, he did gain the support of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

This caught most other countries by surprise.

"In any case, the former Qin people cannot be allowed to continue winning like this."

"The power of the former Qin Dynasty is expanding."

Just when news of Ying Hanri's marriage was flying around the streets, such a voice sounded from the hidden pavilion of a restaurant in Danyang City of Southern Chu.

"We must not let that former princess of Qin win again!"
