Yang Wu was already an honored guest of the Barbarian Tribe, yet there were still people who dared to provoke him. It was obvious that they were looking for trouble.
The group of people that came were Huangfu Luozhong, Shi Lige, and Huyan Shilang. Behind them were more than a hundred barbarians, all of whom were very young. They were all riding different kinds of mounts, and all of them had a valiant and fierce aura.
These hundred barbarians surrounded Huangfu Mingyu and Yang Wu's group. This was definitely a disrespectful act.
However, these young people were the most outstanding heroes of the Barbarian Tribe. They were the strongest warriors in the future. Their status was not ordinary, so they dared to do this without fear of being punished.
"What are you doing? Hurry up and get out of the way." Huangfu Mingyu expressed her dissatisfaction with their actions.
Although she really wanted to teach Yang Wu a lesson, she knew of Yang Wu's strength. She didn't want them to fail in teaching others a lesson and be taught a lesson by others instead.
"Sister, you can just watch. We want to teach this Great Xia monkey a lesson." Huangfu Luozhong replied.
"He is an honored guest of our tribe. Aren't you afraid of being punished by the chief?" Huangfu Mingyu said with a frown.
"Don't worry, we won't kill him. We want to challenge him. In our tribe, only warriors are worthy of our respect." Huangfu Luozhong replied, then looked at Yang Wu and reprimanded, "Great Xia monkey, do you dare to compete with us? If you win, we will let you go. If you lose, you will obediently get out of our grassland."
"No, if you lose, you can stay and be our follower." Shi Lige said with a sneer.
"That's not a bad idea. I like it!" Huyan Shilang said with a faint smile.
"Fight! Fight! Fight! " The hundred or so young people around the three of them all raised the weapons in their hands and shouted in unison. They tried to use this momentum to suppress Yang Wu.
"You've gone too far!" Huangfu Mingyu shouted.
She did not really order them to disperse. She simply let them compete. She also wanted to see if she could embarrass Yang Wu.
Huangfu Luozhong stared at Yang Wu and shouted, "Great Xia monkey, if you don't dare to accept the challenge, get lost immediately. You don't deserve to be a distinguished guest of our grassland!"
"I'm a distinguished guest invited by your Patriarch. By insulting me like this, isn't it the same as not putting your Patriarch in your eyes?" Yang Wu cast a sidelong glance at Huangfu Luozhong, and said in a carefree manner.
Yang Wu's words were extremely sharp. He directly mentioned Huangfu Zhanxiong, and it pressured the expressions of Huangfu Luozhong and the others to become unsightly.
In their hearts, Huangfu Zhanxiong was a high and mighty emperor. How could they dare to be disrespectful to him?
"Our Patriarch was only temporarily blinded by you." Shi Lige pointed at Yang Wu and rebuked.
"Oh, are you saying that your Patriarch is blind?" Yang Wu retorted.
This time, Shi Lige was so angry at Yang Wu's words that he suffered internal injuries. He could not continue the conversation. If he continued, it would be a great disrespect to their Patriarch.
Huyan Shilang said, "Don't try to win a battle of words. If you have the ability, then compete with us. This is what a real man should do."
"You guys are men. But, you don't know how to respect your guests. It's really disappointing. I've always heard that you barbarians are hospitable and hospitable. You treat people with sincerity. But, it seems that you're just a bunch of provocative people. You're a complete barbarian," Yang Wu's words pierced straight into Huyan Shi Lang's heart.
Yang Wu's eloquence was not bad. After experiencing all kinds of hardships, his temperament was not something that the three youths in front of him could compare with. Every word he said struck at their hearts, leaving them speechless. Even Huangfu Mingyu felt ashamed for the three of them. At the same time, she did not know how to refute Yang Wu's words.
"This person is really annoying!" Huangfu Mingyu muttered in her heart. In fact, she quite enjoyed Yang Wu's annoying appearance. It was as if Yang Wu's every word and action were affecting her heart.
"Are you going to fight or not?" Huangfu Luozhong choked out this sentence after holding it in for a while.
"No!" Yang Wu replied softly.
This made Huangfu Luozhong's words feel like he had raised his fist high, but in the end, it only hit a soft flower. He had the strength but had no way to vent it, so he was quite depressed.
"Great Xia coward!" Shi Lige scolded.
"Great Xia coward!" The surrounding people all began to jeer and scold.
"I said, if you scold me, it's the same as scolding your chief." Yang Wu continued to act shamelessly.
This time, everyone was completely silent. The words that were about to come out of their mouths were all swallowed back. They looked as uncomfortable as they could be, as if their internal organs were about to bleed.
"However, if you really want to fight, it's not impossible. You have to come up with something that can move my heart. Otherwise, I won't be in the mood to play with you." Yang Wu said with a sly smile.
"What do you want to bet?" Huangfu Luozhong asked in return.
"You can name whatever you want," Yang Wu said indifferently.
He only wanted to play, so he wasn't very interested in the things that they had.
"Very well, let us discuss it." Huangfu Luozhong responded, then called Shi Lige and Huyan Shilang closer to discuss in a low voice.
Huangfu Mingyu scolded Yang Wu softly, "You're really bad. You're not allowed to hurt them."
"That's not right. Right now, they're the ones who want to hurt me!" Yang Wu said with an innocent expression.
"I don't care. In short, you're not allowed to hurt them," Huangfu Mingyu said coquettishly.
She still remembered Yang Wu's ability to defeat a hundred people by himself. She didn't think that Huangfu Luozhong and the others had any chance of winning. If they had used other methods to win, perhaps they would have had a little bit of hope.
Huangfu Luozhong, Shi Lige, and Huyan Shilang quickly finished their discussion. Huangfu Luozhong turned to Yang Wu and said, "We're willing to bet ten bolts of cloth and two hundred gold taels with you. How about that?"
"Pfft!" Yang Wu couldn't help but laugh, then he said, "Are you playing house?"
Huangfu Mingyu also felt embarrassed for Huangfu Luozhong and the others by saying these wagers. She couldn't help but cover her face.
Huangfu Luozhong glared at Yang Wu and said, "Why don't you bet and we'll follow."
"Okay, how about we bet a thousand low-grade Xuan Spirit Stones?" Yang Wu replied.
This time, they didn't know how to respond.
Even though they were all high level Generals, they didn't have much wealth. Most of the things they obtained would be given to the clan, so where would they get so many Xuan Spirit Stones?
Now they finally knew why Yang Wu was mocking them. It was because their wagers were too shabby.
"You don't even have this little bit of Xuan Spirit Stones? You have the nerve to come and challenge me? "Yang Wu was a bit speechless.
"Damn it, if you win, I'll give you my Ox Horn Spear!" Huangfu Luozhong steeled his heart and raised the ten stone war spear in his hand.
"I can also bet my Falling Moon Bow!" Shi Lige shouted.
"Then I'll bet my armor!" Huyan Shilang said.
They were quite angry at Yang Wu and had to get back at him.
"Are you crazy!" Huangfu Mingyu stared at them and said.
"Princess Mingyu, don't try to persuade us anymore. As young warriors, we're not afraid of any battle!" Huyan Shilang said with a very confident expression.
Huangfu Mingyu was speechless. She couldn't persuade them anymore. Their barbarian race was a brave and aggressive race. Even if they died in battle, they would fight to the end. They definitely wouldn't lose face.
"You're ambitious. I'll fulfill your wish." Yang Wu said with a faint smile.
"Okay, then I'll talk about the rules first. I'll compete with you in the first round. Let's compete in horse racing!" Huangfu Luozhong challenged.
"Sounds interesting." Yang Wu said.
"As a warrior, you must be good at riding. I believe that your Great Xia also has cavalry. Do you dare to compete with me?" Huangfu Luozhong said proudly.
Among the younger generation, his horse racing skills weren't the best, but he was ranked in the top three. This was also the reason why he was so confident.
"Let's compete!" Yang Wu replied simply.
Thus, Huangfu Luozhong briefly introduced the rules.
In horse racing, not only was the horse racing competition about who was faster, but it was also about overcoming layers of obstacles. The winner would be the first to reach the finish line. In the process of horse racing, both sides weren't allowed to use any strength to cheat. Everything depended on the horse's skill.
While Huangfu Luozhong was talking, the people around them had already set up obstacles. There were many sharp antlers in front of them, as well as some wooden stakes. They set up layers of obstacles in front of them. Even a general-level horse demon would find it difficult to easily jump over.
In the distance, they set up a simple elevated platform with an embroidered ball hanging from it. One had to ride a horse and jump high to reach the embroidered ball to win.
This embroidered ball was hung very high. Ordinary horse demons wouldn't be able to jump that high. Everything depended on the riding skills of the man on the horse's back.
This was the horse racing competition of the grasslands.
After Yang Wu glanced at him, he understood that the other party was trying to outdo him in terms of strength. The other party was not stupid.
After all, even if Da Xia had cavalry, there was no way to compare with the barbarians in terms of riding skills.
"They came prepared. It seems that they may not lose!" Huangfu Mingyu secretly thought with a trace of admiration.
"Come, I'll show you the power of my race's horse racing!" Huangfu Luozhong looked at Yang Wu confidently and said.
At this time, the horse demon he was sitting on raised its front hooves high and made a series of neighs. It seemed to be quite excited.
This horse demon was no ordinary horse demon. It was a Wild Red Hare Horse, which Huangfu Luozhong had spent a lot of effort to tame during one of his outings. It was several times stronger than the Red Hare Horse he had raised in his own home.
After a period of running-in, he already had a close relationship with this wild red hare horse. Although he hadn't reached the realm of man and horse as one, he was already very close to it. He was confident that he could win this challenge.
"Are we going to use our horses?" Yang Wu asked.
"Of course. Your Dragon Blooded Horse is the most honorable horse demon in my race. You already have the advantage by riding it. Don't say that I'm bullying an outsider!" Huangfu Luozhong nodded and said with a smile.
"Okay, then let's compete!" Yang Wu straightforwardly replied.
He was also looking forward to this kind of game. After all, he was still only a teenager!
"Ready, start!"
