Chapter 98
The sun was just setting to the west.
A large square in the northern city of Wangdu was already packed to the brim.
This square was originally a school ground, covering an extremely wide area, which can accommodate 10 people standing in it at the same time.
But even a venue of this size can hardly accommodate the enthusiasm of the audience.
The stands in the plaza, the VIP seats, the judging seats, and even the waiting areas assigned to the participating brothels were all overcrowded.
Today's Oiran Challenge is very special.
The one being challenged was the Nine Layers Pavilion in the royal capital, which had only recently become famous.
The rest of the challengers who came together were all prestigious brothels in major cities.
Today they launched this challenge, the main purpose is to step down the Jiuzhong Pavilion.
The other party's current reward ranking has squeezed into the top [-].
Although even if it is defeated today, it will not replace the opponent's ranking, but it can greatly improve one's reputation.
Right now, it's not time to start the competition.
Several oirans each wore veils and gathered in the same waiting area, talking in low voices.
"I heard that Shuiyao Huakui is very good at playing the qin, and she is also a monk herself, so it depends on Master Wu's hard work to succeed in the qin competition."
"My sisters, don't worry, the guqin I'm holding is a spirit weapon of not weak grade, it's better than sound waves colliding, and half a stick of incense will make her retreat in spite of difficulties."
"Hehe, with Master Wu's words, our pressure has been relieved a lot."
"In other words, the music, chess, calligraphy, painting and dancing, that Shuiyao Huakui, can't win at all."
"..."
Just as everyone waited enthusiastically, the game time came soon.
The oirans of each building immediately ended their private chats, moved slowly, and returned to their respective areas.
A group of military guards wore iron armor and held halberds, shuttled through the audience, maintaining order.
In this way, even if more than [-] people gathered, there was no uncontrollable chaos.
Of course, the noise must be indispensable.
"Hey, why is the area of Jiuzhong Pavilion still empty? Could it be that they are too timid to come?"
"Fuck you! Even if there are ten or eight more challengers, Shuiyao Huakuan will not back down."
"Yo, you speak as if you know people well."
"The oiran from the Jiuzhong Pavilion is said to be only good at the piano, but there are several other skills that will be competed tonight. I think it's only a matter of time before she loses."
"What are you talking about? Who lost? The game hasn't even started yet. Let me tell you, don't let me hear your dog can't spit ivory again!"
"It seems that there are quite a lot of brainless crowds of that Shuiyao Huakui. If you can't say it, you want to make a move. Take a closer look, who has more supporters around here?"
……
When the game bell was about to ring, there was a sudden commotion at the entrance outside the square.
"Look! It's the people from the Jiuzhong Pavilion."
"Hey, why did they come with these few people? And they came on foot."
"Hehe, this is the first time Li has seen such a shabby oiran."
The conversations of the peripheral guests spread layer by layer.
After a while, more than [-] people in the entire square heard about it.
The oirans of each building covered their lips and smiled lightly, sitting in the center surrounded by a group of maids, their chins slightly raised, their arrogance was beyond words.
And the distinguished guests sitting in the VIP seats, although there was no sarcasm on their faces, they were secretly shaking their heads in their hearts.
At this moment, under the nervous or mocking eyes of everyone, Gong Shuiyao led her team and slowly entered the stage.
Originally, Mu Feng wanted to lead the team, but Gong Shuiyao politely refused.
This place is her battlefield.
Even if there were no maids surrounded by flowers, no luxurious sedan chairs to ride in, and no awe-inspiring spectacles, she still had enough confidence to represent the Jiuzhong Pavilion to win tonight's leader wreath.
Gong Shuiyao was wearing a water blue long dress and walked in the front.
On that beautiful face, the paleness of the previous battle was no longer there.
At this moment, there seemed to be some kind of aura circulating around her.
Just walking forward, it is so bright and colorful that people can't move their eyes.
Behind her, Mu Feng and Xu Sheng walked side by side.
One is handsome and extraordinary, and the other is calm and wise.
But overall, not many eyes fell on the two.
Not even the five of Cao Tai received as much attention.
The five of Cao Tai walked last, and all of them were filled with a sense of iron and blood.
Such a sense of killing as one body made many soldiers and guards around him look sideways at him again and again.
Under the attention of all the people, a group of eight people walked into the competition field steadily.
Like an extremely sharp arrow, it tore open a road through the thick sea of people.
Seeing that the Jiuzhong Pavilion and others were very popular, a middle-aged man in the VIP seat flashed his eyes, and quickly ordered a few words to the left and right.
Not long after, Gong Shuiyao, who was walking in the front, stopped suddenly.
In front of her, there was an inexplicable coercion.
This coercion was even more majestic than what Yu Tonglei brought her before.
She didn't need to think about it, she could tell immediately that the person who secretly made small moves must be a real Nascent Soul Realm expert.
Moreover, it should be more than just one.
The sudden stop of the people in the Jiuzhong Pavilion was immediately noticed by everyone.
Among the crowd, many troublemakers had been arranged for a long time ago.
After receiving the sound transmission, they immediately began to vocalize the rhythm.
"Let's go, why did you stop? It's already on the scene, why are you still timid?"
"If you don't dare to compare, go back quickly, don't be embarrassed here."
"Shuiyao Huakui, don't be nervous, there are only a hundred thousand guests here."
"Don't waste everyone's time. You came late in the first place, and you still waste everyone's time. Aside from skills, there is a problem with the etiquette of Jiuzhong Pavilion."
Sensing the covetousness and malicious intentions of the people around him, Mu Feng felt a little helpless.
Previously, he did not expect that in the oiran competition, he could let the high-level monks make such a move.
There are at least [-] monks in the audience, and it is impossible not to sense the obvious coercion and obstruction.
To a certain extent, this competition is really unfair.
"However, they can use this method to put pressure on the Jiuzhong Pavilion. Doesn't it mean that it is also within the rules for me to retaliate with an eye?"
I was thinking so in my heart.
Xu Sheng on the side has already opened his mouth with a smile.
"How can you bother with such trivial matters? I hope that the Pavilion Master will give this opportunity to the old man."
When resting this afternoon.
After swallowing the elixir given by Mu Feng, his cultivation directly climbed up a small level.
Of course, this is also because Xu Sheng has been stuck in the previous realm for a long time.
This time can be regarded as a lot of accumulation.
After getting Mu Feng's consent, Xu Sheng immediately moved his mind.
In an instant, a wave of fluctuations in the middle stage of Nascent Soul Realm erupted from his body and spread in all directions!
