Her elder sister steals her husband? She marries the God of War and is pampered beyond measure!

Chapter 193 Shen Muyao vs. Xue Ting

"So what if you win? Let me tell you, don't even think about marrying my sister!"

Fu Changge winced in pain, but still managed to put on a fierce expression.

In Su Ruofeng's eyes, this appearance was nothing more than a show of strength without substance, and not worth taking seriously at all.

After accurately sheathing the Gentleman's Sword, Su Ruofeng glanced indifferently at Fu Changge, who was on the verge of collapsing.

Whether or not you marry, it's not up to you to decide. But it's too early to say anything now, things are still far from settled.

Actually, Su Ruofeng really wanted to be more blunt, but when she thought that it might hurt Fu Yingli's feelings, she chose to say something that was more palatable.

Since both of them are currently unmarried, and Fu Yingli has taken the initiative to ask him out, it would be good to save face for her in case things don't work out in the future.

Fu Changge was in so much pain that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, but he still couldn't hold back his words.

He glanced at Su Ruofeng with utter disdain and said in a roguish tone, "Let me tell you the truth, Mu Qingchen is coming to my house to propose marriage in a couple of days, so stop dreaming!"

Su Ruofeng was taken aback.

Mu Qingchen is the only son of the Minister of Works, and he is considered an acquaintance. Everyone knows that the General's Mansion intends to form a marriage alliance with the Minister of Rites' Mansion. Why would Mu Qingchen interfere at this time?

Seeing that he remained silent, Fu Changge's eyes flashed with pleasure, and he said smugly, "So what you're saying is, what's the use of you showing off to me here? You'd better hurry back and think of a way to make a last-ditch effort!"

Su Ruofeng picked up his sword and walked off the stage.

He threw down the words: "Don't bother thinking of any solutions. If your Minister's Mansion chooses Mu Qingchen, our General's Mansion will have nothing to say."

Fu Changge, who remained where she was, was aggravated by this indifferent attitude, which made her wound hurt even more. As soon as Su Ruofeng stepped off the stage, her cronies rushed up to help Fu Changge.

After stepping down from the stage, Su Ruofeng did not return to his original position; instead, he walked straight towards the examiners.

This move has once again drawn the attention of many people.

Everyone stared intently at Su Ruofeng's retreating figure, thinking to themselves: "As expected, those who win the competition become a bit arrogant. He's about to run to the examiners' table to find his father right under everyone's noses."

Just then, at the signal of His Highness the King of Qin, the man struck the gong and shouted, "The fifth round, Su Ruofeng wins!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone saw that Su Ruofeng was heading towards Prince Qin. As he got a little closer, they realized that he was going to find Su Mobai!

Su Mowan was also puzzled.

Why is Su Ruofeng going to see Su Mobai at this time? Especially since he just won the competition, this action seems a bit too smug.

Su Ruofeng walked up to Su Mobai, put the sword in his hand on the table, and said something somewhat embarrassed. Su Mowan then saw Su Mobai give a faint smile in return, while Su Yuandao, who was separated from Su Mobai by two people, did not look too good.

Murong Jing, in the middle, remained expressionless throughout.

Su Mobai seemed to say something else, and Su Ruofeng nodded shyly, then turned around and strode back to her original seat.

Their momentum was incredibly high, they were so spirited and confident.

Shangguan Qingqi narrowed his eyes and muttered softly, "How did it end up in Su Mobai's hands..."

Su Mowan didn't hear what he was muttering, so she moved a few steps closer, covered her mouth with her fan, and asked, "Didn't you say that the Gentleman's Sword should be in Yanxue Kingdom? Now it seems that it has been in my brother's hands for a long time."

In the entire training ground, only three people recognized the Gentleman's Sword: Su Mobai, Shangguan Qingqi, and Murong Jing.

Therefore, the onlookers only felt that Su Ruofeng was more skilled, but only a few people who knew about the Gentleman's Sword understood that Su Ruofeng had the advantage of having a better weapon.

This is practically cheating.

It now appears that Su Mobai was the mastermind behind Su Ruofeng's cheating.

Murong Jing, sitting in the main seat, suddenly turned his head to look at Su Mobai and said out of the blue, "So it was in your hands."

Su Mobai smiled faintly.

"So you recognize him too."

Su Yuandao, Minister Lu of the Ministry of War, and several examiners, who were sitting to the side, were all completely confused, wondering what kind of riddle the two were playing.

They had no choice but to listen quietly, intending to discuss it privately later. Unfortunately, the two stopped communicating and turned their heads away.

Su Mowan was also secretly speculating.

According to Shangguan Qingqi, the Gentleman's Sword should be in Yanxue Kingdom, so why is it in Su Mobai's hands now?

What's the connection between these things?

Lost in thought, Shangguan Qingqi nudged his arm and asked in surprise, "Hey, could it be that Su Mobai has some connection with Yanxue Kingdom? Do you know anything about it?"

Su Mowan shook her head.

"I do not know."

Shangguan Qingqi's eyes darkened, and he looked at Su Mobai on the examiner's table. His slender fingers unconsciously clenched tightly.

Su Mowan didn't notice his unusual behavior, but her attention was drawn to the next person to take the stage.

One is Xue Ting, and the other is Shen Muyao.

Su Mowan secretly worried about Xue Ting. Perhaps because Xue Ting often hung out with Tang Minzhi, Su Mowan always felt that although he seemed to know some kung fu, he was still more like a scholar.

Compared to Shen Muyao's appearance, the difference is immediately apparent.

But that's just an appearance; maybe they're just hiding their true abilities.

Su Mobai is a perfect example.

Xue Ting seemed different when he stepped onto the stage; at least his eyes were calm, unlike his usual carefree demeanor.

As for Shen Muyao, who was standing opposite him, Su Mowan felt that he was probably already used to the competition, and his expression was completely unchanging.

The sound of a gong rang out.

Everyone held their breath, staring intently at the stage.

Su Mowan was no exception; she was mainly worried about Xue Ting.

Although they weren't exactly friends, this person didn't seem like a bad person. In comparison, she actually hoped that it was Shen Muyao who would lose.

Xue Ting held a sword in his hand. The sword was entirely black, and its narrow blade gleamed with a cold light in the sunlight.

Hearing Shangguan Qingqi scoff disdainfully beside her, Su Mowan couldn't help but turn to him and ask, "What do you want to say this time?"

Shangguan Qingqi looked disdainful.

He leaned closer and said, "This sword is a fake, a counterfeit that's easy to pass off as real."

"A counterfeit? What is it counterfeited?"

"The Qilin Jade Sword".

Su Mowan was taken aback.

Judging from Shangguan Qingqi's words, the sword in Xue Ting's hand should look the same as the Qiyu Sword. She had thought the Qiyu Sword would be a heavy one, but it turned out to be a light and small one.

She suddenly turned her head and stared at Shangguan Qingqi.

"How come you know everything?"

Shangguan Qingqi felt a little guilty for a moment, but quickly calmed down.

His face broke into a smile familiar to Su Mowan, and he even winked at her, saying smugly, "I told you I'm knowledgeable and well-read, but you didn't believe me. Now you know how amazing I am, right?"

Su Mowan carefully observed his expression and narrowed her eyes.

"Since you won't tell me, I won't ask anymore. I'll find out someday."

Many people may know the Three Swords, but few have actually seen all three. Especially since Shangguan Qingqi just mentioned that the Gentleman's Sword has been lost for over ten years.

How talented was Shangguan Qingqi more than ten years ago? He was able to recognize the Gentleman's Sword at a glance; there must be more to it than meets the eye.

Shen Muyao was holding a silver spear in his hand.

He gripped the gun about four-fifths of the way down, the tip pointing to the ground, exuding an imposing aura.

Coupled with his cold and stern face, he looked exactly like a general leading the charge on the battlefield.

Su Mowan clicked her tongue.

"This gun is longer than the sword, so Shen Muyao has really gotten a great advantage."

Shangguan Qingqi smiled.

"It's not necessarily an advantage. If you're far away, the gun is advantageous, but if you're too close, it feels restrictive."

Su Mowan blinked, and saw Xue Ting open and close his mouth for a moment. Then the two looked at each other and instantly took a fighting stance.

As soon as Xue Ting made his move, Su Mowan raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Shangguan Qingqi asked in confusion, "What style of martial arts does this Xue fellow practice? I've never seen it before."

Su Mowan's eyes flashed.

Shangguan Qingqi had never seen it before, nor had she, but she knew what Xue Tingshi's moves were.

It is the Seven Star Sword Technique.

A sword technique that had long been lost had actually reappeared in the Xue family. Su Mowan slightly curled the corners of her lips.

interesting.

Clearly, Shen Muyao was also taken aback by Xue Ting's initial move, but only for a moment. His eyes regained their composure, and he unleashed a thunderous attack, breaking Xue Ting's Starry Sky technique.

Xue Ting's expression was very serious, almost solemn.

Su Mowan couldn't quite understand whether this person was just too calm or had already planned everything out in advance.

Although Shangguan Qingqi couldn't discern the origin of Xue Ting's martial arts skills, he couldn't help but gloat when he saw that Shen Muyao was initially at a disadvantage.

"Sigh, they were so arrogant just now, issuing a challenge to me. I wonder if they'll even make it to the final round."

He made sarcastic remarks without any restraint.

While observing the two fighting on the stage, Su Mowan whispered, "It's too early to make sarcastic remarks. I think this Shen Muyao is quite skilled."

Just as Su Mowan finished speaking, the situation on the stage changed. Shen Muyao used a move called "Dragon Piercing the Heart" to force Xue Ting, who was close by, back a zhang away.

"not good!"

Even Shangguan Qingqi noticed it.

Once the distance increased, the advantage of the gun became obvious. Although Xue Tingjian used unconventional methods and repeatedly broke through Shen Muyao's attacks, it was clear that he could only do his best to defend now.

There was simply no opportunity to launch an offensive.

If things continue like this, we'll either win by surprise or we'll lose.

Xue Ting on the stage also felt a sense of foreboding, but the distance had already been widened, and it would not be easy to close it. Shen Muyao's moves were not bad; he had gained the upper hand earlier because his sword moves were novel, and Shen Muyao could not react to them for a while.

It must be said that Shen Muyao is a person who is suited to survive on the battlefield. In just over twenty moves, he had already become familiar with Xue Ting's moves. With a flick of the tip of his spear, he unleashed a move called "Spring Thunder Blossoms".

"Chong-"

"Accepted."
