After conquering seven male favorites, the vicious heroine wants to run away

Chapter 177 I believe him

The second match was a ten-on-ten contest. In the third match, Yu Changfeng's team was completely defeated, leaving about fifty people.

The third match is a one-on-one contest, which will also determine the new leader of the martial arts alliance.

The Second Prince of Dongchen cast a smug look at her.

Shi Nuanyu's eyes turned slightly cold. Had he already considered the leader of the martial arts alliance to be his for the taking?
His gaze fell on Wei Zengshi. He had to live; he shouldn't become a victim of imperial power.

Shi Nuanyu concealed the worry in his eyes. This competition was a must-win situation, and if he wanted to control the Martial Alliance, he had to let his strength speak for itself.

All she could do was trust him unconditionally.

"Princess, the Second Prince of Dongchen has sent his guards to deliver Drunken Immortal Wine, and invites you to taste it together."

The guard bowed and reported, followed by a guard carrying wine.

Shi Nuanyu smiled faintly, "Your Highness, the Second Prince of Dongchen only invited me to drink but not you. Is he looking down on you?"

She wasn't afraid of being provoked.

Knowing her intentions, Yu Changfeng scoffed and commented, "The Second Prince of Dongchen has a toad-like face. The things he sends are hard to swallow. I don't care for them."

Shi Nuanyu chuckled. He didn't give the Second Prince of Dongchen any face at all. She wondered if the Second Prince of Dongchen would be furious when the guards went to report back.

She gestured to the guards to bring the wine over, and slowly poured it into the glasses from the wine jug.

The Drunken Immortal Wine has a clear and refreshing aroma, with a faint scent of pear blossoms.

Tao Huiyan opened his folding fan and fanned himself, letting in the aroma of wine. He shook his head with regret and sighed.

"Even in the remote and impoverished Dongchen, such a fine wine can be brewed. It's a pity that such a fine wine has fallen into the hands of the Dongchen royal family."

The wine glass was filled with wine, and Shi Nuanyu's fingertips traced the wine on the glass.

Even the finest wine should not be enjoyed casually.

She raised her wine glass and poured it on the ground in front of the Second Prince of Dongchen.

The two clashed, and the atmosphere became tense and simmering.

The Second Prince of Dongchen could no longer maintain his smile and flung his sleeves back into his chair.

A hint of curiosity flashed in Yu Changfeng's eyes. Why did she feel such hostility towards the Second Prince of Dongchen when they first met?

The sound of bells and drums rang out, and the third competition officially began.

The contestants below the stage hesitated to go up, looking around and waiting for their chance.

The group of people stood leisurely in place, showing no intention of going on stage.

Before even testing his internal strength, he leaped onto the dueling platform, awaiting the challengers.

The martial arts alliance has a rule that the first person to step onto the stage in the third round of the competition must fight to the point of exhaustion, regardless of life or death.

The one who successfully fights to the last person and emerges victorious will be elected as the new leader of the martial arts world.

If he still had reservations before not having tried it, his mind was now completely at peace.

He has diligently practiced swordsmanship for ten years, all for this one battle.

"Chen Donglai of Yunfeng Hall will accept the challenge."

The young disciple leaped onto the arena, and after exchanging greetings, the two quickly launched an attack.

Without even testing his skills or drawing his sword, he kicked the man off the stage within three moves.

After easily defending their title in the first round, the young disciples could no longer contain themselves and some of them agreed to form groups of two or four to challenge each other.

Seeing this scene, Zhenbao was so angry that she roared at Weichao.

"What kind of heroes attack in a group? They're breaking the rules."

Wei Chao was displeased, but he didn't show it on his face. He explained with a kind expression.

"Young friend, you may not know this, but although the third match is one-on-one, there is no rule that couples cannot go on stage together to challenge each other."

Zhenbao was furious. "You old fools, you're playing dirty tricks!"

As she was about to jump onto the stage to help, Hua Lingyan stopped her in time.

"He can do it." The number of people on the field increased from three to five, and they recklessly used poison and hidden weapons on the untested person.

From his initial ease to drawing his longsword and weaving through the crowd with its thin, cicada-wing-like blade, every move was meticulously calculated.

The money dart came flying, and before I could even try to defend with my sword, the poison on the dart burned a hole in the ground the moment it hit the ground.

His eyes were cold, and he used his light-footed skill, Stepping Swallow, to take the man's life in one move. This man was chosen by the Second Prince of Dongchen.

They would risk their lives to stop him.

As soon as Ta Yan appeared, Wei Chao, who was sitting steadily, narrowed his eyes and stared at the person on the stage in disbelief.

Impossible, he couldn't possibly still be alive.

Princess Nanyue was known for her violent temper; it was rumored that all the children sent to her died within a few days. How could he possibly still be alive?

However, the Ta Yan technique is a unique skill of the Wei family, and even if he marries into the Wei family, the old master Wei will not teach it to him.

Shi Nuanyu's gaze followed the man on the stage, one line, two lines, three lines...

As the fight went on, the number of wounds on his body increased, and one enemy after another appeared. The most troublesome were the people sent by the Second Prince of Dongchen.

Their attacks were ruthless and deadly; such moves...

Although Shi Nuanyu couldn't understand it, she could tell that these people's moves were completely different from those of martial arts practitioners.

Yu Changfeng noticed her confusion. "They are top-tier assassins. The Second Prince of Dongchen is determined to take control of the Martial Alliance."

Disguised as a suicide squad member, he clearly didn't want the person in the third match to survive.

Watching helplessly as the wounds on her body worsened, Shi Nuanyu clenched her fists to suppress her nervousness.

"How does the martial arts prowess of Wei Chao in the Martial Arts Alliance compare to yours?"

Yu Changfeng was displeased, "How can that old man compare to me? He is not worthy."

Hearing this, she felt much more at ease.

As if remembering something, Shi Nuanyu glanced at him and continued to ask, "I haven't tested it with you yet, who is more powerful?"

Although he is referred to as the First Yama in the book, he is still the male protagonist, so he shouldn't be too bad.

Yu Changfeng had no intention of hiding anything and gave the result: "He is no match for me."

Tao Huiyan nodded, "That's right. In the Princess's residence, Young Master Wei has fought against His Highness the Crown Prince no less than fifty times, and has never won once."

"With such strength, His Highness the Crown Prince must be matched only by the legendary Jade-Faced Young Master."

Their words were like a wavy electrocardiogram, leaving her feeling neither up nor down.

Never won even once?

Seeing her worried expression, Tao Huiyan comforted her, "Your Highness, please rest assured. Young Master Wei has been practicing swordsmanship diligently for the past ten years, and his strength has only increased, not decreased."

For the past ten years, Wei Zengshi's favorite thing to do has been to find someone to fight. His roof was blown off twice, thanks to Wei Zengshi.

Recalling the unwavering look in his eyes at the inn, Shi Nuanyu loosened her fist and stared straight at him.

"I believe him."

Having sworn allegiance to her, he cannot die.

Recalling his actions, Wei Chao was terrified and denied that the man was dead. However, he became suspicious again as he watched the man use the "Stepping Swallow" technique.

More than half of the challengers have already taken the plunge. They dare not relax until they have tried. The sect disciples are easy to deal with, but these assassins are the real challenge.

They would stop at nothing to kill him.

Even so, his eyes were filled with murderous intent as he seized the opportunity to slit the assassin's throat.

The last assassin fell to the ground, his body covered in wounds, blood dripping from his mask onto the floor.

The crowd stared in disbelief at the demons crawling out of hell on the stage, their hearts filled with dread.

The disciple in charge of the event was stunned for a few seconds before scrambling onto the stage.

“Nan Yuesheng…”

"Wait," Wei Zengshi interrupted him, pointing his sword at Wei Chao below the stage, "I've heard that if I kill the leader of the martial arts alliance, I will become the new leader of the martial arts alliance. Do you dare to accept the challenge?"
