Hearing this, Li Fan's heart skipped a beat. Had they finally gotten to the main topic?
"Since I'm a godly strategist, why don't I have Deputy General Li follow me?"
The First Prince spoke up again. "I will definitely be the vanguard in the future war against the humans!"
"We're all members of the royal family. Why must we draw such a clear distinction?"
Autumn Water smiled. "I think it's a good idea to have Deputy General Li follow Royal Sister. However, when I think about how King Ke, whom you have always praised, was defeated so easily, I can't help but feel a little regretful. "
"That's because he's too stupid!"
The First Prince harrumphed. "He let down my hopes in him!"
King Ke trembled at the side, not daring to make a sound. Although the royal family wasn't as prestigious as they used to be, the First Prince was an exception. The First Prince had a hundred Dragon-Tiger Cavalrymen under his command, and he had the support of Prince Feng. It could be said that the First Prince's strength was enough to intimidate all the vassals! It was all thanks to the First Prince's help that he was able to develop so quickly.
The other princes relied on the support of the vassals. The First Prince was an exception. He supported the vassals and kept them firmly by his side.
However, this was also a disadvantage of the First Prince. Because the First Prince had too much power, many vassals didn't want him to become the Emperor.
"How outstanding can a refugee from the wildlands be?"
Just as the three members of the royal family were arguing, a clear voice suddenly came from outside the door.
Everyone turned around and saw a tall, beautiful woman walking in from the door. She looked similar to Qiu Ya, but with a sharper edge and shrewdness in her eyes.
"I don't believe it!"
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not."
Qiu Ya smiled. "How much of it do you believe?"
This was the Second Princess, Qiu Lan.
"I believe in myself."
Qiu Lan bowed at Lord Feng before taking a seat next to the eldest prince. She glanced at Li Fan casually. "My royal sister seems to be in desperate need of talents lately. She's not picky at all. She can recruit anyone as her royal guard. Every single member of the Imperial Guard is a carefully selected elite. Imperial Sister, don't lower their value. "
"Sister, you don't know about this."
The second prince, Autumn Water, fanned himself and chuckled, "This Deputy General Li is worthy of ten dragon and tiger riders."
"My royal sister is confused."
Second Princess Qiu Lan curled her lips. "Even if his chances of winning aren't as high as ours, he doesn't have to make himself look so bad."
"How could someone who could turn my King Nemesis into such a state be mediocre?"
The Eldest Imperial Prince was not in the mood to put in a good word for Li Fan, but to belittle Li Fan was to belittle the dukes that he had raised with his own hands!
He slammed the table and stood up. "If you're not satisfied, you can find someone to fight with the Ke Wang!"
"There's no need to fight once."
However, Autumn Water said, "Today is Imperial Uncle's birthday. It's a joyous day. I think, why don't we have some fun?"
"What prize?"
Everyone turned to look at him. Even Prince Wind was curious.
"Let's see if this Deputy General Li is worthy of ten dragon and tiger riders."
Autumn Water suddenly closed his fan. His actions reminded Li Fan of Jiang Feng. The two of them were quite similar. It seemed that no matter where he went, there would be such people.
"What do you think?"
Qiu Lan's interest was piqued.
"My royal sister and I will each select five dragon and tiger riders from our camps and form a team to compete with Deputy General Li. What do you think?"
Autumn Water suggested. "As long as Deputy General Li can last ten rounds against them, he'll prove his worth."
"How can he deal with ten dragon and tiger riders alone?"
Qiu Ya frowned. "Aren't you making things difficult for him?"
"I'm just trying to prove his worth."
Autumn Water silently dispelled her royal sister's anger. "Sister, you don't want others to doubt your judgment, right?"
"I think so! Let's do it this way! "
The Eldest Imperial Prince made up his mind on this matter. Regardless of whether this Deputy General Li was truly capable or not, since he was not one of his people, then he would use his two sisters-in-law's hands to destroy him here!
How could a newly promoted deputy general be a match for ten dragon and tiger riders?! Once they reached a wider area, they would be able to kill Deputy General Li with a single charge!
A young and hot-blooded general like him would be able to break his spirit and make him lose his will to fight!
"Shouldn't we ask Imperial Uncle first?"
Qiu Ya bowed to Prince Wind. "Imperial Uncle, what do you think …"
"Let's have a match!"
Prince Wind was also interested. "It's a war spirit anyway. It won't hurt even if he loses!"
"But how can he demonstrate his godly military skills if he's alone?"
Qiu Ya tried to fight for Li Fan's trump card. "At least give Deputy General Li some regular cavalry."
"There's no need."
Li Fan smiled. "Just give me a pegasus."
Li Fan's temper flared. These people want to play with me? Then let's see who's playing with whom!
I'll take this opportunity to witness the so-called dragon and tiger riders' battle prowess!
"Have you thought it through?"
At that moment, even Qiu Ya thought that Li Fan was out of his mind. These were ten Dragon-Tiger Riders, not ordinary Pegasus Riders! He was no longer confident, but arrogant!
"Don't worry, Eldest Princess. I won't tarnish your reputation."
As Li Fan spoke, he stretched out his hand, and the scarlet spear fell into his hand.
"So what if I have a hundred, let alone ten?"
"Good, good, good! I, Qiu Yu, will look up to you for having such courage! "
The Crown Prince laughed heartily. "Men, clean up the courtyard. Let's see for ourselves whether Deputy General Li is as powerful as he claims! Oh right, send someone to bring my ruby over! I'll lend it to Deputy General Li! "
Ruby was a divine steed raised by the first imperial prince. Although it couldn't compare to the dragon and tiger riders, it was much stronger than the pegasus. It was unknown if the first imperial prince was helping Li Fan out of goodwill or if he wanted to see Li Fan make a fool of himself.
Everyone left the hall and came to the spacious courtyard. Very quickly, a servant led a scarlet horse into the courtyard. Ten dragon and tiger riders were standing in front of them. They were indeed riding strange beasts! Each of them was five meters long with a dragon head and tiger body. They spat out flames and rode on clouds. They looked extremely ferocious.
Facing these fierce beasts, Ruby acted like a good steed. It only stepped on its hooves uneasily and didn't retreat.
"What a good horse."
Li Fan couldn't help but praise, "Since you have courage, I can't be inferior."
As he spoke, he released his own battle spirit and instantly put on a set of golden Imperial Guard armor. He held the cinnabar flowing fire that King Chu gave him and jumped onto the horse!
