When Yang Xuan returned to the inn, he had already returned to his sallow and emaciated appearance.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Qing Shuang waiting quietly in the room.
Yang Xuan did not find it strange and asked, "Miss Qing Shuang, why are you here?"
Qing Shuang did not speak and only looked at him strangely for a while, then said slowly, "I hope that we will be together for a long time. Such an artistic conception should only exist in the heavens. How many times can one hear it in the mortal world?"
Yang Xuan smiled and did not even blush as he said, "You flatter me, you flatter me. The essay was made by the heavens and came by chance. I was just lucky."
Qing Shuang's eyes lit up and she murmured, "Came by chance. Childe Yang is really a great talent. Just this sentence alone is enough to explain the profundity of poetry."
Yang Xuan blushed a little. He did not think that he would unintentionally steal from the literary world again. He was indeed helpless.
"What brings Miss Qing Shuang here?" Yang Xuan evaded the topic.
Qing Shuang glanced at him and said, "Does the method of measuring Zhou Di really exist?"
Yang Xuan had already guessed that she was going to ask this, so he nodded and said, "It is true."
Qing Shuang's eyes lit up like never before, "How do we proceed?"
Yang Xuan smiled but did not speak.
Qing Shuang also realized that she was a little anxious and smiled embarrassedly, "Qing Shuang was rash. What do I have to do for you to reveal this method?"
Yang Xuan did not beat around the bush and said directly, "Give me the storage ring in exchange."
He was very sure that the method of measuring pi and the method of measuring pi were very important to the Green Snow Kingdom. No, they were very important.
Qing Shuang was silent. After a while, she said slowly, "The storage ring is the princess' dowry. If you can become the prince consort, the ring will naturally be yours. Why do you have to do this?"
Yang Xuan smiled and said, "That is true. But at that time, I will have already obtained the storage ring. The method of measuring pi will need other things to exchange."
"What else does Young Master want?" Qing Shuang looked at Yang Xuan.
Yang Xuan shook his head. "I don't know. Let's exchange for whatever we like. Maybe we don't like anything, so let's not exchange."
Qing Shuang fell silent. He knew that Yang Xuan already understood that this method was extremely important to them. This was already a blatant threat.
"I can't make this decision. Let's wait until Young Master finishes participating in the final examination." Qing Shuang thought about it and said.
After Qing Shuang left, the corners of Yang Xuan's mouth revealed a slight smile.
He did not want to tie himself to the chariot of the Qingxue Kingdom. Exchanging pi for a storage ring might be his only chance, and now it seemed that the probability of success was still very high.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and it was finally time for the final examination.
This time, it was Zhang Heng who led the way. Among the six of them, he only smiled and nodded at Yang Xuan. This kind of differential treatment made the others feel gloomy.
In particular, Wang Zhuo's face was gloomy, and his eyes revealed a hint of coldness.
The palace of the Qingxue Kingdom was built very magnificently, revealing a sense of beauty everywhere. It was as if one was in a celestial palace.
Following Zhang Heng, the six of them passed through the palace square filled with swords and spears and entered the main hall.
In front of the incomparably spacious main hall, there were steps made of gold. At the end of the steps was a huge dragon throne.
On the dragon throne, Her Majesty the Queen was wearing a dragon robe and a crown, looking extremely majestic.
"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen!" The six of them bowed at the same time.
They did not kneel because they were not Her Majesty the Queen's subjects, nor were they citizens of the Qingxue Kingdom. They were disciples of some martial arts sects or large families, so there was no need for them to bow.
"Rise!" A majestic voice sounded.
Yang Xuan's mouth revealed a smile. This voice belonged to the person behind the screen that day.
At this time, a person beside the Queen stood up and said loudly, "The final examination will be a martial arts battle. Don't go too far!"
They were not surprised. Although the literary battle was important, martial arts cultivation and talent were still the most important things to determine who the Prince Consort would be.
In the face of absolute strength, all tricks and tricks had to be put aside.
Yan Yixiu stood quietly, his robe fluttering in the absence of wind. He was full of confidence.
Wang Zhuo's eyes were calm as he looked ahead. He seemed to have a card up his sleeve.
Jin Chengfeng smiled, looking very confident.
The other two were also calm and composed, their eyes resolute.
Yang Xuan nodded inwardly. Those who could enter the final examination were indeed extraordinary.
The order of the competition had been announced. His first opponent was Yan Yixiu.
Yan Yixiu was also a little surprised, but then he sneered.
In the first round of the competition, he had been defeated everywhere and was below Yang Xuan. He did not expect to meet Yang Xuan first.
"I must let you know that there is always someone better than you. Although your literary talent is outstanding, in this world, martial arts cultivation is still the deciding factor." Yan Yixiu sneered in his heart. At this moment, he had decided to make Yang Xuan suffer greatly.
The competition venue was outside the main hall. When the Queen and the officials all moved out and sat down, Jin Chengfeng was already standing in the square with another person.
"Please!"
"Please!"
The two of them clasped their fists at the same time, sparks flying in their eyes.
Yang Xuan did not look. He already knew that although the two of them were in the same realm, Jin Chengfeng's cultivation was obviously much stronger than the other person's.
As expected, after a few rounds, the other person knew that he was no match for Jin Chengfeng and clasped his fists to admit defeat.
Jin Chengfeng also responded very politely and received good reviews from the crowd.
Next was Wang Zhuo and the other person.
What was unexpected was that Wang Zhuo, who seemed to be at a very low level, actually displayed the strength of a Three Flower First-String in actual combat. After a bitter battle, he actually defeated the Three Flower First-String with the highest level of cultivation, which really surprised everyone.
The battle between the two was earth-shattering and had great momentum.
Logically speaking, a battle of this level should have been able to completely destroy this place. However, what surprised Yang Xuan was that the fluctuations emitted by the battle between the two seemed to be absorbed by something and did not cause any damage to the surroundings. It was very strange.
Wang Zhuo's performance also attracted the attention of the officials of the Qingxue Kingdom. Many of them nodded secretly.
Finally, it was time for the battle between Yang Xuan and Yan Yixiu.
Their battle was the focus of everyone's attention because in the first round of the competition, Yang Xuan's performance was really too eye-catching. Not to mention Yang Xuan, Yan Yixiu's performance was only below Yang Xuan's.
On the stage, the two stood facing each other. Yan Yixiu clasped his fists to Yang Xuan and said, "Brother Ren, we meet again."
Yang Xuan, however, still maintained his nonchalant and carefree attitude.
He looked at the people who were watching, and a strange smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Well said!" Yang Xuan also clasped his fists.
"The battle begins!" At this moment, the host ordered.
"Brother Ren, sorry to offend you!" Yan Yixiu's eyes flashed with a trace of seriousness. He suddenly stood up and a cold light appeared in his hand. In an instant, he crossed the distance between the two of them and arrived in front of Yang Xuan.
Everyone held their breath, waiting to see how Yang Xuan would react.
Among them, those who knew Yang Xuan's true identity and cultivation were all uninterested. No matter how heaven-defying Yan Yixiu's cultivation was, could he really go against Yang Xuan, the Five Qi Supreme Venerable?
Therefore, the result of this battle was already predetermined.
Qing Xue also smiled. If Yang Xuan became the princess's son-in-law, it couldn't be better. At that time, she wouldn't be afraid that Yang Xuan wouldn't tell her the secret of Zhou Dezhi.
Just as everyone was having different thoughts, the cold light from Yan Yixiu's hand was already close to Yang Xuan's face.
The next moment, Qing Xue's smile froze.
Not only her, but everyone's expression was lifeless.
This was because Yang Xuan spat out three words, "I admit defeat!"
