"Of course I am sure!"
He responded with a haughty look.
But before the new leader could speak, everyone heard a short, faint laugh. Everyone present was very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared, and they immediately locked onto the person who was laughing. Looking over, it turned out to be Shen Tang! The one who challenged him immediately asked angrily, "Why are you laughing?"
Shen Tang said sincerely: "You are no match for him."
Everyone broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this.
Even if it really doesn't work, it's not that straightforward.
The man in line nine was suppressing his anger.
The words were sharp: "Whose side does Lord Shen belong to? Why do you have to boost others' morale again and again?"
"Do I need to explain my position?" Shen Tang was not afraid of the man's angry glare and said lightly, "You are no match for Gong Xichou. If you fight him, you will have a high chance of survival even if you die nine times. I am just stating the facts to prevent you from losing your life in vain."
Her eyes were honest and straightforward.
No intention to suppress, just stating a fact.
It's just like this, which makes it even more annoying.
Even though Gu Ren had such a temper, he was somewhat displeased by Shen Tang's successive actions - no matter whether he could win or not, he could not lose in momentum. Exaggerating Gong Xichou's strength would be to suppress his own morale, not to mention the alliance whose people's hearts were not united!
“Since Mr. Shen is drunk, you’d better go down and drink the sobering soup to sober him up and calm his mind…” At this time, a familiar strong man came out. He was the seventh brother of Gu Ren who had said that day, “It’s just the thirteenth shift.”
He glanced at Shen Tang slightly.
It seems that there is a kind of pride written in the corners of his eyebrows and eyes.
Gu Ren also used a rare cold and hard tone: "Master Shen, don't worry about this. My brothers are all very righteous and fearless. Even if Gong Xichou breaks through and is promoted to the fourteenth level right guard in front of the battle, his realm is not stable yet. We-"
Shen Tang interrupted Gu Ren: "No."
Gu Ren asked: "What is not?"
"Gong Xichou is not the fourteenth-rank right guard."
Gu Ren frowned and forced himself to suppress his emotions: "But the news that Lord Shen brought earlier said that he had a breakthrough in front of the battle..."
"He did break through, but he didn't advance from the 13th level to the 14th level, right level..." Her voice was not loud, but it could be clearly heard by everyone. Shen Tang's tone was smooth, "He broke through from the 14th level, right level to the 15th level, junior upper level."
For a moment, there was silence in the tent.
Even the sound of a pin drop could be heard clearly.
But the next moment, the situation was broken by a sudden noise, and the discussion was buzzing! It's not that it's impossible to reach the fifteenth level of Shao Shangzao, but Gong Xichou's age is too amazing!
If this is true—
There was only one thought in everyone's mind.
Is that still a person
Countless powerful and brave warriors with names and surnames, especially those rare twenty-rank Chehou in the world, they were promoted to fifteenth-rank Shaoshangzao at about the same age as Gong Xichou, or even younger, but without exception they all had outstanding military achievements!
They exchanged their military exploits for countless military fortunes and achieved breakthroughs one after another, so it was their military exploits that made them famous earlier than their actual strength!
but-
Who is Gongxichou
He is not well-known and his military achievements are unknown.
This means that his promotion was based on his own martial energy, not the martial luck gained through military exploits! This shows how terrifying this person's talent is! If Gong Xichou is allowed to shine on the battlefield, he will surely become a marquis within ten years!
Even if we ignore the talent,
Even if he was a junior master of the fifteenth level who had just broken through, if his elite troops were fully deployed, the enemy would at least win two consecutive victories if they couldn't win three in a row, and the morale of the two armies would be greatly distanced. For a moment, a cloud of worry enveloped everyone's heart.
The new leader also sighed inwardly.
He had a lot of elite soldiers under his command, and he thought that the highest military strength of the Zhu King's rebels was at most the twelfth-rank left guard or the thirteenth-rank middle guard. He was full of confidence when he came, but when he heard what Shen Tang said, he felt a little worried.
He glanced at the people who looked timid.
He curled his lips in disdain.
To be honest, he also thought that Master Shen was an undercover sent by the enemy. With just a few words, he brought the newly formed alliance to the brink of dissolution. How can we fight a war if people are not united? He was so worried that he scratched his head and saw his confidant winking at him out of the corner of his eye.
He understood instantly and nodded.
The scholar in black shirt stepped out and said, "Master Shen seemed to have said before that you fought with Gong Xichou in front of the battlefield and... escaped unscathed?"
His gaze stayed on Shen Tang for a moment.
As he didn't lose any limbs, he could be considered to have escaped unscathed.
Either Shen Tang was too strong, or Gong Xichou was just a name and Shen Tang exaggerated his strength, or Gong Xichou was letting Shen Langzhu off the battlefield and didn't really kill him.
The scholar in black shirt was very curious, which one it was
Shen Tang pondered for a moment, then said seriously, "It's not 'escaping unscathed'. If Yuan Liang and the others hadn't used the 'transferring' spell in time, I would have been seriously injured at best."
Gu Ren's seventh brother sneered and couldn't help but say something sarcastic.
"If Gong Xichou was really a 15th-rank junior superior, would he have given the scholar next to you the opportunity to perform the 'transplantation'? He would have killed you with one halberd long ago, and even the gods and Buddhas could not have saved you! Or could a scholar like you have the ability to fight a 15th-rank junior superior head-on for a hundred moves without dying?"
Shen Tang: "There is no such thing as a hundred moves against each other."
The more they listened, the more puzzled they became.
They also didn't know the details of the battle, but subconsciously thought that a fight should be a battle of strength against strength, and fists against fists.
Shen Tang said truthfully: "His horse ran too slowly, and his legs were too short, so he couldn't catch me for a while... If he couldn't catch me, he naturally couldn't kill me, but you are different. Your horses are slower than his, so you can't run or fight, so you really can't do it."
Everyone: “…”
Gu Chi whispered to Qi Shan in private: To be honest, regardless of the abilities of these people here, they are indeed well-mannered.
Even this didn't get Shen Lang out.
Pray for goodness: …
Another person laughed and said, "In that case, why don't we ask Master Shen to lead the charge? We can use up a lot of Gong Xichou's martial energy. I think he has amazing talent and is the reincarnation of a martial god. He will be exhausted in the third round. We can then take the opportunity to kill him and take his head. How about that?"
Fifteenth-level people are not good enough, so don't expect to win the second game.
You can give it a try in the third game.
The premise is that—
In the first game, Shen Tang had to complete the goal.
Facing Gong Xichou in his prime, the risk was naturally great, but she could boast. If she failed to fulfill her promise, wouldn't it prove that she had fooled everyone present? After the words fell, several people spoke up in agreement, while others remained silent, with only one person objecting.
This person is also Gu Ren's sworn brother.
Chao Lian, number twelfth.
The new leader's eyes rolled inwardly.
I didn't expect that Gu Ren's brothers were not of the same mind. Look, Chao Lian was an outlier. Chao Lian really didn't agree. A group of strong men, facing a strong enemy, acted like those cowardly traitors who talked too much and feared death, pushing others to die...
Mr. Shen is only twelve years old.
At this age, even if he doesn't know how to brag, it's understandable. At least, it's not a capital crime!
Shen Tang raised his hand to stop them. Under everyone's gaze, he asked calmly, "I have no objection to this matter. But who should be credited with the first achievement?"
Everyone laughed.
The new leader did not laugh, and said casually: "If Gongxi Chou is really that difficult and terrifying, the credit goes to you."
Shen Tang said indifferently: "I don't want the first credit. I want to use it to rent something from the leader. Can the leader agree?"
