Interstellar: Start as a cleaner.

Chapter 716 The first scene

"The upper circles of the Shuilan Empire are too chaotic." Yang Bo shook his head. Who could have thought that such a noble and classical princess would actually attend such a party.

Although he was grumbling in his heart, Yang Bo still felt a sense of accomplishment when he saw the princess speaking.

If I had known that the other person was a princess, I would have tried a few more tricks.

Of course, maybe it’s because they have been suppressed for too long, in fact, the internal competition among the nobles is quite fierce.

This is because the resources within each noble family are limited, and it is impossible to take care of the growing number of clan members.

Struggles are inevitable, and the same goes for the royal family.

The emperor has so many sons, who wouldn’t want to be emperor? Just like the emperors in ancient times.

Some princes might even wish that their fathers and their brothers and sisters would all die, leaving only themselves.

Even the princes wish that the current emperor's family would die out and they would be the heirs.

And among these great nobles, who doesn’t have the ambition to become a royal family?
Therefore, the great nobles would marry each other, but generally would not marry with the royal family.

The sons of the royal family and princes usually marry the daughters of commoners, which appears to be a way of being close to the common people.

In fact, the prince was not allowed to marry the daughter of a noble, no matter whether it was a big noble or a small noble.

Because the prince's woman gave birth to the prince, if she was the daughter of a nobleman, then the child might be influenced by the nobleman in the future.

Of course, the princess should be more lenient because she can also marry.

But great nobles generally do not marry princesses. A princess has a high status, so what does it matter in the family?
To put it bluntly, the great nobles love and hate each other, and the same is true between the great nobles and the royal family.

"This opening ceremony is wonderful, with handsome men and beautiful women." Yang Bo watched the opening ceremony. The men and women who came on stage were all very pleasing to the eye and their singing was also beautiful.

After the opening ceremony, the first competition was randomly drawn.

In the Blue Water Empire, swordsmen are not divided into different rankings and grades and then drawn separately. Instead, they are drawn together because the Blue Water Empire believes that luck is also a very important part.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pressed the draw button, and after a 10-second countdown, the virtual display showed the opponents of the contestants in pairs.

"Only a fool would believe it's random." Yang Bo saw that the first player he faced was actually the 32nd ranked player in the Shuilan Empire preliminaries.

"Why don't you give me the random number one?"

"But I can understand that. After all, I broke so many records. I can say that I am ahead of all the players in the Blue Water Empire."

There was information on the watch, so Yang Bo opened the door and went out.

"Yang Bo, there is definitely something fishy going on here. We need to file a complaint with the association."

"That's right. How can we face a player with such a high ranking in the preliminaries right away?" Liu Jingxiang and Zhou Kexin, wearing suspenders and holding snacks in their hands, stood at Yang Bo's door and said anxiously.

Yang Bo ignored the two people's exposed bodies and said after walking out of the door: "There is definitely no way to appeal this. Don't forget that it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who drew the lots himself."

"How shameless!"

"that is!"

"Let's take it one step at a time. In fact, I have seen Zhao Song's game videos, and he also has weaknesses." Yang Bo's opponent this time is named Zhao Song, and he is a viscount.

"Really?" Liu Jingxiang and Zhou Kexin widened their eyes when they heard this.

"I can only say that I'm sure of it. Anyway, it's already like this now. Your appeal will definitely be useless." Yang Bo shook his head.

"So angry!"

"that is!"

"Don't tell anyone outside that there is a shady deal or anything like that, otherwise they might sue you for defaming the prince or something." Yang Bo warned the two again.

"Yeah." The two looked at each other and nodded, only to realize that they were wearing too cool clothes. They quickly covered their chests and went back to change clothes.

"Tsk tsk." Yang Bo sighed in his heart. He had to say that the two of them had very white, round and plump skin.

Of course, the white parts should be white, and the pink parts should be pink.

"The game is tomorrow afternoon. Send a message to Jerry tomorrow morning and ask him to bet on me to win."

"We were short of a large sum of money to build the research institute, but now it's here."

"Since you guys are here to let me slap you in the face, I won't be polite."

"But don't act too much tomorrow, otherwise I'm afraid these shameless nobles won't take the stage for the subsequent private duel challenge."

Yang Bo sent a message to Liu Jingxiang and said that he would go back to watch Zhao Song’s game video.

Yang Bo's opponent Zhao Song was now full of energy and boasting to a group of Blue Water Empire swordsmen: "Just wait and see how I will beat up this weakling from the alliance tomorrow."

"The Empire is really something. They have to let these noobs like the Alliance come and cause trouble."

"That's right, their kind can be called a sword fighting competition."

"Especially that bastard Mike and that sissy Lin Nan. These two bastards are on top. They make me sick."

"These two bastards never leave the hotel every time they come to the competition."

"If they leave the hotel, I will torture them to death, or at worst I will pay them a sum of money."

"Zhao Song, if you win tomorrow, I will treat you to a month on Paradise Island."

"Yes."

"But if you lose, don't blame us for beating you up."

"If I lose, I'm going to run around the arena naked five times, without even using super powers."

“No masks allowed!”

"Am I that kind of person? Not only do I not wear a mask, I also shout out who I am."

"No, that won't work. If you lose, you have to call yourself a cuckold bastard."

"You can yell all you want, but each of you has to treat me to a month's stay on Paradise Island."

"It's a man!"

"Yang Bo, this loser, doesn't even dare to show up. We've been putting up the sign for such a long time."

"A lowly cleaner comes to participate in a sword-fighting competition. What kind of world is this? What kind of world is this!"

"That's right. Defeat him tomorrow and make him go back to the alliance and continue sweeping the floor."

The exciting games are usually scheduled in the afternoon, mainly because the nobles have a rich nightlife and get up late the next day.

The hottest bet today is between Yang Bo and Zhao Song.

In the morning, Yang Bo saw that the total amount of bets between him and Zhao Song had exceeded 15 billion blue coins.

After taking a walk around the beach, I sent a message to Butler Jerry and found out that the amount had exceeded 30 billion blue coins.

Unexpectedly, there were still many people who suppressed Yang Bo, so many people in the Blue Water Empire cursed on the Internet that suppressing Yang Bo was a shame for the empire. "Hurry up and eat." Liu Jingxiang and Zhou Kexin urged Yang Bo.

I didn't feel comfortable meeting Yang Bo last night because we were eating snacks and watching the opening ceremony in the room, and our clothes were loose and casual. After the draw, we forgot about it and were seen naked by Yang Bo.

"Why rush? We are so close and there is an exclusive passage."

"Can't we go earlier?"

“It’s too stressful to go early and wait.”

"We are both under a lot of pressure right now."

"Then you two don't go, I'll go by myself."

"This won't work."

At the urging of the two, Yang Bo finished his meal quickly, and then the three fully armed people passed through a special passage and directly arrived at the arena not far away.

There is an underground passage from the hotel to the arena, which is mainly to protect the privacy of the players of the Blue Empire.

There is no way around this. If the Blue Water Empire wants to develop swordplay competitions in the alliance, it must respect the alliance's regulations.

Of course, there are also some effeminate players in the alliance who might be beaten to death by the nobles when they go out.

When they arrived at the rest room, Liu Jingxiang and Zhou Kexin helped Yang Bo put on his equipment.

The atmosphere in the lounge was a bit depressing, as there was no one else here.

Finally it was 10 minutes before the game.

What’s interesting is that there is more than one arena in the entire arena, but at this moment, only the arena where Yang Bo and Zhao Song are facing off is having a match.

"Our alliance swordsman Yang Bo has finally come on stage. I personally thought that Yang Bo would not participate in this competition." A male host said with obvious targeting intent.

"Alliance swordsman Yang Bo is 22 years old and his job is a cleaner." The host said with a slightly bad tone, dragging out the word "cleaner" and shouting it out word by word.

"We have already introduced Zhao Song. Does Zhao Song have anything to say now?" The host clearly favored the other party.

"Fencing competition is not a sport. Some people think it is a sport. You can go back to sweeping, mopping and mopping the floor." Zhao Song said word by word, holding a sword in his hand.

More than 15 billion people watched the live broadcast of the game, and most of them praised Zhao Song's statement.

"well said!"

"You damn cleaners of the Alliance, get out of here now."

"The noobs in the alliance, go back now!"

Of course there are also people from the alliance, but their voices are much smaller because there are too many people from the Blue Water Empire.

What’s interesting is that the official registered population of the Blue Water Empire was announced to be less than 20 billion. After all, Devon is such a large planet, but it only has a population of tens of millions.

This means that three-quarters of the country’s population are already watching the live broadcast in this room.

I have to say, this is an irony.

"Well said!" The host applauded Zhao Song.

Liu Jingxiang and Zhou Kexin, who were watching the live broadcast while taking a break in the back, were so angry that they almost cried.

"These bastards are such bullies!"

"Exactly. I actually thought this host was very handsome."

"The people in the Blue Water Empire are so uncultured."

The two of them talked at the same time.

The host now said loudly: "There are still three minutes left before the betting ends. Everyone, hurry up and place your bets."

“The total number of bets has now exceeded 60 billion.”

“It’s rare to see bets this big.”

"But looking at the proportion of bets, I know that everyone's choice is right. Of course, we won't win much money on this bet."

"There are still two minutes left, and the amount of bets has exceeded 80 billion. This may be the record for the most bets on a single match in history."

"There is still half a minute left, and the betting amount has exceeded 100 billion. I just got the news that someone bet 5 million on Yang Bo. I can only say, are these people stupid?"

"The betting time is over. The betting amount for this game has reached 108 billion!"

“It broke the record for betting on a single game.”

"Get ready!" the host shouted loudly when he saw that the competition time was up.

"Begin!" accompanies the beginning of a lifetime.

Zhao Song pointed his sword diagonally toward the ground to the right, then took the initiative to charge towards Yang Bo.

Yang Bo slowly raised his sword and pointed it at the other party.

Zhao Song ran quickly in small steps. When he was only five or six meters away from Yang Bo, Zhao Song suddenly took a big step and the sword in his hand moved instantly.

The next second, Yang Bo retreated rapidly, and Zhao Song's sword collided with Yang Bo's sword.

The two swords collided quickly. Zhao Song's moves were fierce and fast, but Yang Bo's defense was also impeccable.

Zhao Song's sword came from the left, and the sword in Yang Bo's hand blocked Zhao Song's sword. Zhao Song's sword was only a few centimeters away from Yang Bo's neck.

Zhao Song quickly changed his tactics and Yang Bo quickly retreated to the right.

The moves of the two were fast and fierce. Yang Bo was forced to dodge left and right and was about to be forced out of the ring.

He would be considered a loser once he left the ring, but Zhao Song was anxious because he had not won after a series of competitions. How would other people and the national audience see him?

Seeing that Yang Bo was forced to the edge of the ring and seemed unable to fight back, his moves became faster.

Zhao Song’s idea was very simple. He had to defeat his opponent before he left the ring. If the opponent left the ring, he would lose face.

"You bastard, don't retreat." Zhao Song was anxious and couldn't help but curse, and the sword in his hand slashed towards Yang Bo again.

Yang Bo's sword was also blocked, so Zhao Song changed his tactics.

But the next second Zhao Song felt something was wrong, because the power of Yang Bo's sword was too great, and it actually followed his sword. Then he saw Yang Bo's sword moving along his own sword. His heart skipped a beat, and he knew he was doomed. The cleaner in front of him had been acting with him.

KO!

"Yang Bosheng!" A deep voice rang out from the huge arena, and the voice echoed throughout the arena.

"Zhao Song, you're a fucking idiot!" the host cursed, and his voice echoed throughout the arena.

At this time, Yang Bo jumped off the ring and walked away.
