On the stage, Huyan Lu stared at the green-clothed woman in front of him as he tried to hide the shock in his heart. "Princess Ding, this is the last arrow."
Ye Li smiled and calmly took the arrow. This time, she was not in a hurry. Instead, she slowly nocked the arrow and took aim. Everyone could not help but hold their breaths as they looked at the few remaining copper plates on the tree. They saw Ye Li suddenly leap forward. She stopped on the table behind her and jumped up. While in the air, she quickly drew the bow and shot an arrow. Whoosh — —
The arrow was nailed into the tree. Everyone stared blankly at the empty tree in front of them. The copper plates hanging from the tree had disappeared without a trace. Those with sharp eyes could see that there were a few strings of the same length hanging from the tree. Princess Ding's last arrow had actually broken a thin thread. How could this kind of archery skills and eyesight not shock people? Ye Li turned to look at the pale Huyan Lu and smiled faintly. "The same rules. If General Huyan can stand aside, then this consort will lose!"
The crowd was in an uproar. Previously, it was Huyan Lu who had set up the stage to challenge everyone. Now, the situation was reversed. Princess Ding was challenging Huyan Lu, the number one expert of the Northern Tribes. The crowd below the stage was discussing. Yun Ting, who had a cold face, was now very excited. "How is it, General Huyan? Don't tell me you don't dare to accept our consort's challenge? "
Huyan Lu's face was ashen. He did not dare. Huyan Lu was known as the number one expert of the Northern Tribes. He naturally had real skills. If he had more time, he might have been able to do what Ye Li had just done. But now, he was powerless. He could shoot one arrow at a time and guarantee that he could shoot down all the copper coins within ten arrows. But he could not control three arrows to shoot down seven or eight copper coins at the same time. And Ye Li clearly knew this. That was why she had given him such a difficult problem.
"General Huyan?" Ye Li reminded with a smile.
"This one concedes!" Huyan Lu gritted his teeth and said. When he raised his head, he was immediately booed. Ye Li walked to the center of the ring and picked up the gem-studded dagger that was placed on the shelf and pulled it out. A gust of cold air immediately rushed out. The bright blade was so shiny that it could reflect one's reflection. The sharp and cold blade showed that this blade had drunk countless amounts of blood. Ye Li casually waved her hand, and the table in front of her immediately shattered. Ye Li returned the saber to its scabbard and praised, "It really is a good saber. Many thanks to General Huyan. "
Seeing Ye Li put away the treasured saber in her sleeve, Huyan Lu's complexion turned ashen, but he had nothing to say. He could only look on helplessly as Ye Li walked down the stage with the treasured saber that he was so proud of.
Ye Li took the Howling Moon Saber and jumped down the stage. Yun Ting immediately rushed up and greedily said, "Princess, can this subordinate take a look at the treasured saber that you won?" That was a famous treasured saber of the Northern Tribes. There were many swordsmiths in Da Chu State, and there were many famous treasured swords. But the craftsmanship of the saber was not as good as that of the Western Tomb and the Northern Tribes. Especially since the Northern Tribes were good at using sabers. The sabers that they made were all top quality, not to mention the famous Howling Moon Saber. Ye Li glanced at him with a smile that was not a smile. Yun Ting suddenly remembered the trouble that he had caused before. The excitement on his face immediately turned to depression and fear. After appreciating his depressed appearance, Ye Li smiled and threw the treasured saber into his hands. Yun Ting hurriedly thanked her. He held the arrow in his hand and studied it carefully. His fondness for it was evident in his words. "Your Highness's archery is truly marvelous. This subordinate is extremely impressed," Chen Yun said sincerely as he followed beside Ye Li. Ever since the martial arts competition last year, Chen Yun had been full of admiration for this young Wangfei. After today's scene, it was even more convincing.
Ye Li smiled and said, "How is it as mysterious as you say it is? I just put in a little more effort than usual. On the battlefield, there is no need for everyone to shoot copper coins from trees in the middle of the night. You are killing enemies on the battlefield, not performing in the arena. "
Chen Yun smiled but did not speak. He understood that the princess was comforting him. He only decided that when he returned, he would work even harder to practice his archery skills.
Chen Yun and Yun Ting lived in the military camp and were not going the same way as Ye Li. When they parted, Yun Ting could only reluctantly return the treasured saber to Ye Li. Looking at his eager appearance, Ye Li smiled faintly and threw the saber back into his hands, saying, "If you like it, then take it."
"Ah?" Yun Ting stilled and was overjoyed. At the side, Chen Yun helplessly rolled his eyes at him. With his pitiful and reluctant appearance, those who did not know would think that the one that wang fei was taking away was not a saber but his beloved. He knew that wang fei was very tolerant of the people around her so he did not stop Yun Ting from being foolish. When Yun Ting reacted, he carefully held the saber and asked in a daze, "Wang fei … is really, really giving it to me?" Ye Li smiled and said, "I didn't come for his saber. It was just a coincidence. Even more, there is no one in wang fei who likes to use this kind of saber. Since you like it so much, you can keep it. "Compared to this kind of curved sword, Ye Li preferred light and straight daggers and military knives. Even more, the beautiful gems and decorations on the scabbard were not suitable to be carried around as a weapon. When Ye Li gave an affirmative reply, Yun Ting stupidly held the saber. He looked as though he wanted to put the saber in his mouth and take a bite to see if it was real. Chen Yun who was standing beside him couldn't help but secretly take a step back, embarrassed to walk with him.
Ye Li looked at Chen Yun and said with a smile, "Ben fei remembers that Field Officer Chen uses a spear and needs a close combat weapon to protect yourself. I just recently received a Cold Rhino Blade. Later, I will have someone send it to you to see if it suits you. "
Chen Yun was overjoyed. The scabbard of the Cold Rhino Blade was not as beautiful as the Howling Moon in Yun Ting's hands, but the blade was not any worse. Because they had been forged by the same master. And it was more practical than the Howling Moon Blade. Because the Howling Moon had been obtained by the Royal House of the Northern Tribes, it had been decorated so beautifully that it was not suitable for the battlefield. The Cold Rhino Blade had always maintained the original simplicity and sharpness of the blacksmith. "This subordinate thanks wang fei." Ye Li waved her hand and said with a smile, "No need. It is a good thing that a good weapon can find a good owner. Ben fei will go first. It is rare for me to have some free time. You guys can play. "
"Farewell wang fei."
The place where Ye Li and the others were speaking was only a dozen steps away from the stage. Ye Li's careless action of tossing the Howling Moon Saber to Yun Ting was naturally seen by many people. The common people naturally thought that Princess Ding treated her subordinates well and was benevolent. But the people involved all had dark expressions.
In Ningxiang Pavilion, Yelu Ye and Mo Jingli both stared at the graceful figure walking away amidst the crowd. A trace of gloom and anger flashed across Yelu Ye's eyes. Ye Li had exposed Huyan Lu's true identity in front of everyone. But after winning the Howling Moon Blade, she had carelessly given it to a lowly military officer. This was clearly looking down on the Royal House of the Northern Tribes and him, Yelu Ye.
Ye Lü Ye, who had always been arrogant, was once again rebuffed by Ye Li. How could he swallow this anger?
Yelu Ye stood up and wanted to jump down from the window to chase after the figure that was gradually blending into the crowd. But he suddenly felt a cold gaze shoot towards him with undisguised killing intent. Following the direction of his gaze, he saw a man with snow-white hair staring at him with a cold expression through an open window on the opposite street corner. Yelu Ye's heart jumped. He suppressed the chill in his heart and slowly sat down. Mo Xiuyao watched him sit back down. His lips hooked in a cold smile as he raised the wine cup in his hand. Yelu Ye gave a cold snort. He raised the wine cup in front of him and drained it in one gulp.
