Chapter 69 - Using the Same Trick (1/2)

The young man on the stage was charming and defeated his opponents in one go. Although he was young, his demeanor was not inferior to that of an older person.

The girls below the stage were already stunned. They normally didn’t get the chance to see such a scene. However, even the past years’ tests combined were far from as exciting as Xie Jingxing’s performance this year. Most of the girls admired heroes, and with Xie Jingxing’s looks and aura, he naturally attracted another batch of fans today.

Some of the young men were jealous, but most of them were shocked. Su Mingfeng looked from afar and shook his head with a smile. “So this is what he mean by something to be happy about. He is still as arrogant as ever.” However, Su Mingfeng also knew that what Xie Jingxing showed today was only the tip of the iceberg. Xie Jingxing was a person who hid his strength. Now that he revealed his ability, did he want to challenge the royal family? His expression gradually became solemn. He could not tell what his good friend was thinking.

“That Young Marquis Xie is indeed extraordinary.” A hint of admiration appeared on Feng Anning’s face. “I don’t think anyone in the younger generation of the capital, or rather, the entire Ming Qi, can compare to him.”

Shen Miao shook her head.

What Xie Jingxing was best at was not competing here. He was good at fighting battles. In fact, if not for the fact that he was eventually killed by the royal family of Ming Qi in his previous life, with the power of the Xie family and the prestige of Xie Jingxing in the army, he could get at least half of the Ming Qi empire.

However… The decline of the Xie family was still a mystery. Shen Miao sighed in her heart. In her previous life, she was focused on helping Fu Xiuyi and did not know much about the Xie family. Now, she was at a loss what to do to help him.

Xie Changchao and Xie Changwu were so angry that their faces turned livid. Xie Jingxing’s attack looked light, but in fact, only the two of them knew how serious their injuries were. However, the people around them did not pity the Xie brothers at all, because Xie Changwu and Xie Changchao were the ones who launched a sneak attack first. In the test, the most important thing was fairness and justice. Not only did the audience look down on the Xie brothers, but the examiners on the stage also looked down on them. After today, the good reputation they had accumulated would disappear.

“What a good move,” Shen Miao said softly as she looked at the purple-clothed youth standing on the stage with his arms crossed.

Xie Jingxing had led the two brothers of the Xie family by the nose today, which was why the two brothers of the Xie family lost their usual sense of propriety and used despicable methods to harm people.

Today, the difference between the legitimate son of the Marquis of Lin’an and the illegitimate sons was clear.

Xie Jingxing said lazily to the two of them, “It’s clear who won. Who else wants to challenge me?”

There was silence.

Everyone had seen how Xie Jingxing dealt with Xie Changwu and Xie Changchao just now. He almost knocked down the two of them with a single shot, and these two were among the best. For a moment, no one said anything. Xie Jingxing casually threw the spear in his hand to the side and said, “Since there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.” With that, he brushed his clothes and disappeared, causing the girls to shout with excitement.

“This guy is strong,” Prince Zhou commented. “But apparently he’s a tough nut to crack.”

Pei Lang sighed in his heart. The Ming Qi Royal Family looked smart, but they were short-sighted at evaluating people. This young man must have done it on purpose on the stage. Although Pei Lang didn’t know why, he could vaguely guess Xie Jingxing was aiming at the royal family.

He glanced at Prince Zhou and Prince Jing. If the royal family confronted Xie Jingxing, they would probably end up miserably, because he was a lion, just like Shen Miao.
