Chapter 38 The Marquis of Hughes

Two days passed in a flash, Shen Yun only slept in two extra sleeps, and found that it was already the day for the start of the re-election.

"Hey, I didn't sleep well in the early morning, but rushed to fight with people, this kind of development is really..." The head dangled all the way as if it was hanging on the neck, Shen Yun half-closed his eyes and muttered dissatisfied.

Yu Qianqian put on her simple and capable combat uniform again, her long aqua-blue hair was also tied with a ribbon, and she swayed gently with her peaceful steps. At this time, she was walking beside Shen Yun with a smile on her face. Said: "Don't complain, there will be an opening ceremony in a while, and you can sleep for a while if you want."

Shen Yun was overjoyed, but then hesitantly said: "That's good, but I'm not very proficient in sleeping while standing up, I don't know if I can succeed... Forget it, try it!"

Speechlessly glanced at Shen Yun, Yu Qianqian didn't expect this guy to take it seriously.

Except for the Imperial Guards opening the way on the first day of the primary election, the students of the college entered the palace on their own in the next few days with their student crystal cards. Therefore, Shen Yun and others got up early in the morning and wanted to be there early to get acquainted. Check out the venue.Fortunately, the street was not too crowded today, Shen Yun and others walked up the royal road dedicated to the imperial palace, and went straight to the martial arts arena.

As soon as he entered the arena, Shen Yun felt that it was quite different from the primary election.The originally densely packed small venues have been merged into 20 huge arenas, which stand in the empty martial arts arena under the support of a thick base.

"The changes are quite big. The academy let us rest for two days, and there are factors that need to adjust the venue?" Looking at the ring in front of him, Shen Yun suddenly felt a little excited.

That's right, the venue where two white lines were drawn before was too rough, but the arena is more atmospheric!

Shen Yun thinks that the arena is good only because the arena looks good, so Yu Qianqian knows more "professional" content.Pointing slightly to the arena not far away, Yu Qianqian said with a smile: "Ah Yun, although part of this arena is to satisfy those dignitaries who come to watch the battle, it is definitely not just for this fancy function."

"The bottom of the 20 arenas is engraved with defensive magic circles to ensure that the aftermath of the battle will not affect the audience. The power of this magic circle is much stronger than the semi-finished products that were directly arranged with magic crystals before. After all, it can Those who entered the semi-finals are all academy elites, and the intensity of their battles is definitely not comparable to that in the previous primaries."

"Well, it is indeed necessary." Shen Yun nodded in agreement, and then asked in doubt: "Then there are no protective measures for the students on the field? After all, swords have no eyes. If it is a fierce battle, it is very difficult to fight." It’s hard to say what kind of surprise will happen.”

"At the bottom of the arena, there is also an element interference circle, which can interfere with the movement of elements to a certain extent. Although it has no effect on high-level fighters, it is enough to control students below the ninth level. Facing Shen Yun's question, Yu Qianqian explained, but then felt a little sad: "Despite this, accidents are inevitable in every rematch. After all, the magic circle can only interfere with the operation of elemental power, not stop it. If there is If the students cast martial arts or magic with too high intensity, or even rely on the physical power of the weapon itself, it may cause irreversible results..."

"Have people died?" Shen Yun frowned, somewhat unacceptable that someone died in this kind of competition.

Shaking his head slightly, Shen Yun breathed a sigh of relief at Yu Qianqian's words: "That's not true, at most it's just a serious injury, and it will recover after a while under the medical treatment of the college's doctors. However, even if someone really died because of this, we Think, they won't complain!"

Looking at Shen Yun's puzzled eyes, Yu Qianqian explained with a solemn expression: "It is indeed a pity to lose to an opponent in an upright battle and die due to an accident, but there is nothing to be resentful about. All fighters should have the awareness! What's more, this is a trial for jihad. Although the security measures in jihad will be stricter than those in the academy, due to the dedication of students from different academies to honor, The casualties in jihad are much higher than those in the academy. Therefore, if accidents in the academy are unacceptable, let alone jihad."

"Is that so..." Scratching his chin, Shen Yun felt that he still couldn't accept this kind of concept.

It's just a competition, and it's not going to the front line to fight desperately. Is it really necessary to be so passionate?Or, is there really someone who would not even die for this so-called jihad?

Whether Shen Yunli understands it or not, the rematch will start as scheduled.When the sun stretched its figure in the sky and burst into dazzling brilliance, the gate of the Royal Martial Arts Field also slowly closed.

...Today is full, please be early tomorrow.

Led by 16 seeded contestants, a total of 64 re-selected contestants stood under the high platform east of the Yanwu Field, waiting for the start of the "opening ceremony".The Royal Martial Arts Field is well-equipped, perhaps for the convenience of high-ranking military officials who often come to inspect it. In addition to the 3-meter-high Martial Arts Stage on the east side of the Martial Arts Field, a higher stage is also set up on the outer circle of the field. Seats are used instead of the wall, which saves the academy the trouble of adding seats for the nobles.

"Tsk tsk, there are ordinary stands and special boxes. Let's just change the name of the Royal Martial Arts Arena to the Royal Theater." Shen Yun was very disapproving of this. Is it necessary for a martial arts arena to have so many seats?

Hmm... Could it be that it was added on purpose because Blue Water Academy often holds competitions here?

"Shut up!" A short man next to him was obviously very dissatisfied with Shen Yun's muttering at such a "serious" moment, so he couldn't help but stare hard.

Shen Yun shrugged and didn't bother to pay attention to him. There are always some "good students" who think that listening to the leader's speech is a very sacred thing.By the way, why hasn't the leader come here? He's been standing there for 10 minutes!

Perhaps because they heard Shen Yun's voice, under the leadership of Vice President Ulan, a group of people finally appeared on the high platform slowly.

"Today, we gathered at..."

As usual, it was a pre-war mobilization without nutrition. The old man Ulan spoke passionately, and the players below heard their blood boil, but Shen Yun only felt drowsy.

... Come on, didn't you say this before the primary election last time, students of Andalus, you are too excited?

After nagging for 20 minutes, Ulan smacked his lips a little bit, before he planned to hand over the magic megaphone to the next person: "Next, I would like to ask Marquis Hughes of the Imperial Ministry to say a few words for everyone. !"

"Papa papa!" Seeing that it was the Marquis Hughes who was in charge of the military department, the students below clapped their hands even harder. Among other things, most of them would go to the front line in the future. Although Marquis Hughes himself could not go to the front line to command To transfer the army, but after all, the frontline army is theoretically under the control of the military department, and Lord Marquis still has a huge influence on the frontline.Therefore, if he can get the favor of the Marquis of Hughes now, he will be developed!

"Marquis Hughes?" Shen Yun also came to his senses, isn't this Xiao En's father, so I have to take a look!

Following Ulan's introduction, a figure who had been walking side by side with Ulan took two steps forward slightly, and took the magic megaphone handed over by Ulan.Looking at this slender figure, Shen Yun frowned slightly.

With a thin face, a gentle face, a gentle smile, and clothes with simple patterns, in general, the Marquis of Hughes is not at all the thick and thick soldier in the military as everyone imagined, but rather looks like a well-educated middle-aged man. For a young scholar, there is only a stern look in his eyes that glances at the students in the audience.

Shen Yun didn't have any thoughts because of that gleam of light. After all, Marquis Hughes worked in the military department. If he was really kind, it would be hell.

However, how should I put it, when Shen Yun saw the face of the Marquis of Hughes, he couldn't help but think of the "glasses man" who appeared to be gentle on the surface, but secretly vicious in secret, in countless TV dramas on the earth. Being able to know people is really because the influence of TV dramas in the past was too deep, and the Marquis of Hughes is too representative.

"Hey, if Ice Cube knows how I look at his father, he might want to fight me." Looking at Marquis Hughes who was encouraging the students on stage with a megaphone in his hand, Shen Yun felt that the dog-blood TV series was deceiving people. .

The Marquis of Hughes obviously often gave speeches, and he no longer had the unstoppable performance of the old man Ulan. He just gave everyone a few words of encouragement, and told everyone that the emperor of the empire would also be present in the finals. Handed it back to Ulan.

"Okay, then, the re-selection for the Bluewater College Holy War Trials starts now!" Ulan took the loudspeaker, and finally said what everyone in the audience wanted to hear the most: "You all got the competition groups before, now go to your respective teams. The next stage of the ring is waiting for the match to begin."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but when Marquis Hughes was speaking just now, he seemed to look at Shen Yun intentionally, which really made him a little confused.

On the first day of the semi-finals, there were a total of 32 matches between the Mowu and Martial Arts Departments, which were divided into 16 matches in the morning and afternoon, and the remaining 4 arenas were reserved.Since it was only the first day, many nobles did not come to watch the match, only a few domestic servants in twos and threes stood in the surrounding spectator seats, perhaps it would be the third round before there would be more people.

Both Shen Yun and Xiao En's competitions were held in the morning group, and only Dai Fei's competition was scheduled in the afternoon, so they couldn't cheer each other up, they just looked at each other and walked towards their respective rings.

Duffy you say?Does she need to ask which arena she will go to?

"No. 175, Wu Kong, the 7th grade stick class of the martial arts department, is facing off against Shen Yun, the 1414th grade sword class of the No. 8 martial arts department. Please come on stage."

"Wukong? No wonder he learned sticks~!" While Shen Yun was still researching whether this Wu Kong and that Wukong were connected, he found that the opponent on the stage looked familiar.

Damn, isn't this the kid who told me to stop talking just now under the high platform!

Wu Kong's figure is very thin, like a monkey.But when combined with the metal rod made of unknown material in his hand, it is indescribably harmonious, natural and self-contained. Sure enough, the monkey and the rod are a perfect match?

"Are you both ready?" Asked left and right, and after receiving an affirmative answer, the part-time referee college teacher waved his hand and said loudly:

"Game start!"
