Chapter Fifty-two: Sneak Attack

  In everyday life, good-looking and fierce are always not on the same level. As those old people said, flowery fists and legs, good-looking moves must be powerless, while truly powerful moves must be very vicious.

  However, Xie Jingxuan was not the case. He was born with a handsome and elegant appearance, but when he rode on horseback, with a long gun in front of him, he looked like a heroic god of war. The iron-blooded temperament that came from the battlefield made it impossible for people to take their eyes off him. Strength and beauty, handsomeness and ferocity, he was like a beautiful wolf, with a noble and courageous aura that made one's heart skip a beat.

  A purple shirt fluttered like a cloud and lightning, under him was a galloping horse flying high, under his feet, the whole audience seemed to be excited with the sound of hooves. He had a strange temperament that could make people fly with him.

  Xie Changchao and Xie Changwu closely followed the purple-clothed youth, also separating to surround Xie Jinghang from both sides, intending to encircle and annihilate him. This was truly a shameless tactic, clearly two against one.

  The crowd on the scene exclaimed one after another, and Fu Xiuyi said: "Xie Jinghang, it's a good seedling of Xie's family."

  "What's this nonsense you're talking about?" Zhou Wang smiled: "This kind of stubbornness, even Xie Ding can't handle it. I'm afraid he's also a chaotic demon king."

  Fu Xiuyi smiled but didn't speak. Xie Jinghang, although looking a bit unruly, must not be underestimated. In the face of absolute strength, even the most cunning schemes are powerless. The reason Xie Jinghang dared to show such an arrogant attitude was that he had nothing to fear. And what made him fearless... perhaps it was just self-confidence.

  Unlike Zhou Wang's arrogance and Jing Wang's cautiousness, Fu Xiuyi evaluated a person in a comprehensive manner. Therefore, his staff consisted of all sorts of people, including those with great talent and learning, as well as those who seemed unremarkable, fallen high officials, and even unpardonable sinners. He only valued ability and used it, while character, demeanor, and attitude towards handling affairs were not important to him.

  What a dazzling person Xie Jinghang is, I really want to make him my own... unfortunately... he just happens to be from the Lin'an Marquis Manor. And the Lin'an Marquis Manor can't exist for too long in Ming Qi's territory after all.

  Put down the regret in his heart, Fu Xiuyi continued to look at the young man on the field. Xie Jinghang was surrounded by the two brothers of the Xie family, but he cleverly dodged and weaved like a snake. No matter how tight the siege of Xie Changwu and Xie Changchao seemed, he could always slip through lightly. The two brothers' originally seamless double guns now looked full of holes under Xie Jinghang's quick movements, it was really comical.

  There must be a competition to distinguish between high and low, early in the fighting process, who is higher, who is lower, who is better, who is worse, it's almost a fact that can be seen at a glance. The two brothers of Xie's family are really not worth mentioning in front of Xie Jing.

  "My goodness," Bai Wei covered her mouth and exclaimed: "Xie Xiaohou seems to be playing a trick on the two brothers of the Xie family."

  "Not bad, compared to...” Yipai Lan also exclaimed: “The Ma brothers of the Xie family, their guns seem to be just for show."

  The fact that the ladies can all see, how can the gentlemen not see it? Xie Jinghang is able to kill with one blow, but intentionally toys with Xie Changwu and Xie Changchao bit by bit. It's as if a lion has caught a rabbit, but instead of swallowing it quickly, it teases and torments it.

  "'Xie Xiaohouye is indeed an extraordinary person,' said Feng Anning. 'The Xie family's two brothers' cavalry was once the most proud thing, but compared to now, it's really like heaven and earth apart. I'm afraid today will also end in a disastrous defeat.'"

  Shen Miao lowered her head and gazed at the chessboard in front of her.

  Not at all, how can this be considered a crushing defeat? This has just begun.

  She slowly dropped a white piece, and two black pieces were swallowed up instantly. A small blank space appeared on the chessboard.

  On the stage, Xie Changwu and Xie Changzhao were finally enraged. They had been toyed with by Xie Jingxing like monkeys for half a day, feeling angry and humiliated in their hearts. Xie Jingxing was clearly intentionally making it impossible for the two brothers to get off the stage today, knowing how badly they had just performed. A killing intent suddenly arose in Xie Changwu's heart. He glared viciously at the purple-clothed youth in front of him.

  The young man on the horse was extraordinary, with a smile that was not quite a smile, and his appearance was very eye-catching. From birth, he was the pride of the Lin'an Marquis's household. However, despite this, he still looked down on the Lin'an Marquis's household. Whether it was the status of the heir or the favoritism towards Xie Ding... He was like a king in the forest, a tiger that tyrannically blocked everyone's path! How could people not hate him?!

  In a state of utter disarray, Xie Changwu's perfect facade finally cracked as he let out a loud roar and grabbed his spear, charging straight at Xie Jingxuan. In the brief moment they crossed paths, he viciously stabbed his spear into the horse's buttocks beneath Xie Jingxuan!

  Everyone was shocked!

  In the trial of horse lances, there has never been a case where someone attacked their opponent's horse. Because horses are mounts, doing so would likely harm the other person. Falling off a horse can result in injuries such as broken arms or legs, and even death, which is not uncommon. After all, trials are just a means of evaluating students, and there is no need for bloodshed, so such situations have never occurred.

  Xie Changwu's behavior is really quite despicable.

  Xie Changchao was also startled by Xie Changwu's action, but soon he understood. Almost without hesitation, he rode the horse under him towards Xie Jinghang's direction.

  It turned out that Xie Jinghang was going to be trampled to death by being thrown down!

  These two brothers must have gone mad! The whole room had only one thought, and it didn't even mention whether this matter would violate the law in Minqi, but if Lin Anhou knew about this, if Xie Jingxing had an accident, could the two Xie brothers still escape?

  The women let out a collective shriek, the men also gasped in shock, and those with weaker nerves covered their eyes. Feng Anning, that delicate girl, was also frightened into screaming.

  Shen Miao's wrist paused, and she looked up at the young man on stage.

  The two brothers of the Xie family were indeed not a strong opponent, this game was played too badly, and Xie Jinghang... would certainly not let go of this opportunity.

  But then the black stallion let out a long whinny, its two front hooves raised high, almost standing upright, while its hind legs frantically struggled. The purple-robed youth held his spear in hand and executed a beautiful flourish, but with one kick of the horse's hoof, the spear was bent sideways, pinning both hooves tightly together. The stallion fell to the ground and never got up again.

  Before everyone could react, Xie Jingxing lightly tapped his toes and flew up with a jump. His body was as agile as a celestial being flying in the sky. With a stretch of his spear, he flipped Xie Changwu to the ground. With his other hand, he casually picked up a stone, flicked it, and shot it into the knee pit of Xie Changchao's horse. Xie Changchao dodged too late and fell off his horse.

  The two brothers were both knocked off their horses, but it was only for a brief moment. Xie Jinghang lazily stepped on Xie Changzhao's shoulder with one foot, and the long gun in his other hand pointed at Xie Changwu's head, saying with a hint of a smile: "Even brother dares to launch a sneak attack, really...underestimating oneself."
