Dahan: A 100-year-old veteran, I will build the strongest family

Chapter 18: Arena Competition, Part (Long Chapter)
There was a huge crowd of people at the Li family fighting arena.

Many experts from all over the country have already lifted the 500-jin boulder and started to challenge ten or twenty strong men.

The competition set up by Li Hong has a total of three steps.

The first level is to lift a 500-jin boulder and roll it to qualify for the next level.

The second level is for those who have passed the first level to go on the stage to challenge ten big men, or more than twenty big men, to be ranked.

Anyone who successfully challenges ten big men can directly enter the Li family and become a family general.

Those who can challenge twenty big men can directly enter the Li family as a guest official, and can also continue to challenge the third level.

In the third stage, the winners of each challenge will compete in a unified ring and the final ranking will be determined.

It can be said that this martial arts competition was held by the Li family in a great style.

"His Majesty has arrived! Get out of the way!"

Just as the first stage was completed and the second stage elimination match began, there was a sudden commotion on the street in the distance.

The armed and powerful Yulin Army cleared the way and made a path, and the dragon and phoenix sedan chairs appeared.

Wow!
"The emperor and the queen are here too."

"What a grand occasion! Even the emperor is here. Look at the back, it looks like there are civil and military officials."

The onlookers and the warriors and heroes from all over the place were shocked when they saw that the emperor and all the civil and military officials had arrived.

On the arena, warriors and heroes from all over the country, such as Pan Feng, Zhang Fei, Yue Lu and other people who considered themselves brave, were extremely excited.

This is really their chance to make a name for themselves.

What if the emperor takes a fancy to you?

Li Hong, who was sitting steadily in front of the main stage, was also stunned when he heard that Liu Hong was coming.

He really didn't expect Liu Hong to come.

However, Li Hong was more happy than surprised.

"You will follow me to greet His Majesty and the Queen!"

After Li Hong said this, he took Li Wen, Li Wu, Li Li and other Li family members to welcome the emperor and the empress.

However, he had just arrived not far from Liu Hong and others.

Li Hong was slightly stunned when he looked at the two graceful figures beside Liu Hong, and his pace slowed down unconsciously.

However, on the left of Liu Hong, there was a plump figure standing.

This is a beautiful young woman wearing a phoenix crown and a bridal robe, with stunning beauty and charm.

He was no more than twenty-one or twenty-two years old.

In ancient times, twenty years old was the age of precocity, undoubtedly, when people were beautiful and young.

She was wearing a phoenix robe, which highlighted her curvy figure.

The air is filled with charm, elegance, and luxury.

It has to be said that the elegant and mature charm makes people unable to look away at first sight.

This is He Jin’s sister, and in history, Liu Bian’s mother, Empress He.

This is a beautiful young woman with great charm.

Of course, what also caught Li Hong's attention was Queen He's attribute panel.

[Name: He Lian, the Queen of the Han Dynasty! ]

[Age: 21 years old]

【Height: 170cm】

[Politics: 70, two-star qualification, growing normally. ]

[Strategy: 71, two-star aptitude, growing normally. ]

【Size: 38D】

[Appearance: 100 (stunning beauty, plump and mature beauty)]

[Comprehensive score: 92, a high-quality beauty of the Han Dynasty, with a chance of giving birth to extremely high-quality offspring, it is recommended that the host marry a wife and take a concubine]

【Entry】：None.

Empress He is indeed the top beauty in the Han Dynasty, with a beauty rating of 100, slightly higher than Madam Bian.

What surprised Li Hong was that Queen He's overall score was as high as 92 points.

Li Hong has met many women, but his overall score can reach over 90. Except for Madam Bian, he has never met any other women.

It can be seen that Empress He's overall score of 92 points immediately caught Li Hong's attention.

Another beautiful figure standing next to Empress He attracted Li Hong's attention.

Although this woman is not as mature and charming as He Guiren.

However, she had black hair, clear and bright pupils, curved eyebrows, long eyelashes that trembled slightly, fair and flawless skin with a faint blush, and a figure that was not exposed but was excellent. She stood there quietly, graceful, beautiful, and even more moving.

Like a graceful Jiangnan woman, she has a slender figure and a light gait. Her eyes are deep, as if they contain thousands of stories that make people want to explore. Her smile is like the rising sun, warm and bright, making people happy.

Her beauty is aesthetic. Her clothes are always elegant and delicate, like a dot in a landscape painting, adding endless poetry to the whole picture. Her hair is tied lightly behind her neck, and a few strands of black hair dance in the wind, showing her gracefulness and tenderness.

This is a graceful, beautiful, well-behaved and intellectual beauty.

Her every smile and frown makes people fall in love with her.

Her existence is like a beautiful poem and a moving painting, which makes people want to get close to her, understand her and spend a wonderful time with her.

Looking at this graceful and beautiful young woman, Li Hong's heart, which had not moved for decades, could not help but beat slightly.

Of course, what caught Li Hong's attention even more was the opponent's attribute panel.

[Name: Wang Rong, a graceful beauty, mother of Emperor Xian Liu Xie, the beauty of Handan]

[Age: 20 years old]

【Height: 168cm】

[Politics: 62, one-star aptitude, growing normally. ]

[Strategy: 69, two-star aptitude, growing normally. ]

【Size: 78C】

[Appearance: 102 (graceful, beautiful, and well-behaved, a stunning beauty.)]

[Comprehensive score: 95, a high-quality beauty from the Han Dynasty, with a chance of giving birth to extremely high-quality offspring, it is recommended that the host marry a wife and take concubines] [Entry]: None.

If Empress He's appearance and ratings surprised Li Hong, then Concubine Wang made him feel stunning.

With an appearance score of 102 and an overall score of 95, this is the most beautiful woman Li Hong has ever seen.

Still a young woman.

Other people's wives and concubines.

Both women are extremely beautiful, but their styles are very different.

One is mature, charming and voluptuous.

The other one is graceful, beautiful, well-behaved and intellectual.

Although Li Hong's heart was in turmoil, he did not dare to act recklessly. He glanced at them and came to Liu Hong. He saluted Liu Hong and the queen and said:

"I, Li Hong, and the descendants of the Li family come to see Your Majesty!"

"This... General Li, you... are you getting younger and younger as you get older?" Liu Hong couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement as he looked at Li Hong, who was full of energy and exuded a strong aura.

Looking at Li Hong's appearance, he doesn't look like a hundred years old at all.

Not only Liu Hong was shocked, but Empress He and Concubine Wang beside him also looked at Li Hong in surprise with their beautiful eyes.

They all know that Li Hong is already 101 years old.

Li Hong smiled and said:

"Your Majesty, you are joking. I am already 101 years old. I am not as young as Your Majesty. However, my health is getting stronger and stronger, and I can still do something for the family."

"Your Majesty, are you here today to watch the martial arts competition?"

Liu Hong also withdrew his shock, glanced at the lively arena, turned around, and smiled at Li Hong:
"Yes, I will bring the Queen and all the officials to see the elegance of my men."

"General Li is quite good at this. He was able to attract all the heroes in the world to come to Luoyang for a duel."

When Li Hong heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly.

However, he could hear the hidden meaning in Liu Hong's words, which was clearly intended to warn the Li family.

Li Hong immediately bowed to Liu Hong and said:

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am old, but I have no outstanding descendants. I cannot restore the glory of our ancestors to the Li family. I can only spend all my wealth and try desperately to recruit some powerful and brave men to revive the Li family."

"General Li, what are you talking about? Don't I know General Li's ambitions? This move shows General Li's urgency."

Liu Hong did not blame Li Hong for his excuse, but felt a little ashamed and said:
"To be honest, I have also failed in some aspects. General Li saved my life in the past. But I did not do much for the Li family. How about this, General Li will arrange for a clan member to serve by my side."

When Liu Hong finished speaking, Empress He and the surrounding civil and military officials were all shocked.

Liu Hong's words clearly meant that he wanted Li Hong to recommend a member of the Li family, even if the person was a loser, to ensure that the Li family would be rich and powerful for the rest of their lives.

Upon hearing this, Li Hong secretly thought that his arrangement of arranging the bandits to kidnap Liu Hong to rescue people was not in vain.

Liu Hong still remembers the "life-saving grace".

Yes, Li Hong had specially designed to find Liu Hong.

He arranged for the bandits to kidnap Liu Hong, and then came forward to rescue Liu Hong, just wanting to curry favor with Liu Hong and leave a good relationship.

It was really all we could do to leave a good impression, as Li Hong was too old at the time, already in his eighties.

When Liu Hong ascended the throne and took power, Li Hong was already over ninety years old.

Liu Hong couldn't repay anything.

But now it’s different.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I just want to restore the glory of my ancestors. How can I rely on connections to get to the top? Let's not talk about this matter. If any of the Li family members thinks of using connections to get to the top, I will be so angry that I will die!"

Li Hong puffed his beard and glared as he spoke, without considering Liu Hong at all.

"Haha, the Li family has a good family tradition, I won't mention it!" Liu Hong laughed and then said:

"Old General, please take me to see the demeanor of these big men."

"Yes! Your Majesty, Queen, and everyone, please follow me."

Li Hong immediately led Liu Hong, Empress He and others to the best viewing position in the stands.

"Continue the competition!"

The leaders of each arena shouted loudly.

The heroes who were challenging each other on the ring became excited.

The emperor is watching the battle, isn't this the time to show off?

"Haha, I am Zhang Fei from Zhuo County, Youzhou. Come and fight!"

On a stage near the stands, a thunderous sound exploded, immediately attracting many people to look.
In the ring competition, a handsome young man with a white face holding a 10-foot-long snake spear challenged twenty big men.

Facing the siege of twenty big men, Zhang Fei's Snake Spear flashed with a strong green light, and his moves were wide and wide. One after another, the strong men were knocked away and fell on the ring struggling in pain.

The combat power of top-notch generals is fully demonstrated.

The onlookers were all shocked. Liu Hong, the queen, and all the civil and military officials in the stands were also looking at Zhang Fei in shock.

Liu Hong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but say:

"This Youzhou Zhang Fei is truly a fierce general!"

……

"I am Pan Feng from Jizhou. It's great. Haha!"

Pan Feng swung his axe vigorously, and the heavy axe made the big men fly backwards. He was extremely brave.

"What a great Pan Feng! He's really powerful. It seems there are many heroes in the world." Liu Hong couldn't help but say happily again.

Li Hong, who was sitting steadily on the side, remained motionless as a mountain and stroked his beard when he heard Liu Hong's joy.

Huang Zhong, Dian Wei and Xu Huang did not come today, but Li Hong did not feel bad about it.

However, Li Hong's eyes would occasionally glance at the graceful, beautiful, well-behaved, intellectual and charming Lady Wang.

At this time, Lady Wang was seen waving her fists and looking at the competition arena nervously.

Could it be that this fist-fighting, blood-pumping match made Lady Wang feel extremely excited?

This made Li Hong feel a little moved.
