Chapter 134 Ending in a draw?
The discussions of the crowd reached Mu Nanyue's ears clearly, and the faint smile on her face remained calm and composed.
The secret guard beside him was sweating profusely.
What does the lady want to do now?
No one had time to think about it because the game had already started.
What’s particularly coincidental is that Shen Sidu’s first opponent on stage was Pei Jing.
Mu Nanyue, who was a little sleepy, woke up quickly, her eyes fixed on the game in front of her. From time to time, she picked up the teacup beside her and took a sip, her face unfathomable.
"My name is Shen Sidu." Although the other party was his rival, and despite a lot of ridicule and sarcasm from the audience, Shen Sidu remained calm.
Every time Mu Nanyue saw this, she couldn't help but sigh that he was worthy of being the male protagonist and could face any situation calmly.
The person opposite smiled slightly, although others could not see it, after all, Pei Jing was wearing a mask, and he said in a friendly tone: "I am Pei Jing."
At this time, on the spacious and bright competition stage, Shen Sidu and Pei Jing stood opposite each other.
There was no nonsense between the two sides and a fierce battle immediately started.
Shen Sidu was wearing a black robe and holding a silver sword. He had a strong and agile figure and his sword was sharp.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The sharp sword energy swept over.
Feeling the pressure from the opponent's golden elixir, Pei Jing did not use his own magic weapon, but instead used the holy-level magic weapon given to him by Mu Nanyue.
He just raised his hand, made hand gestures, and silently recited the spell that Mu Nanyue taught him. In an instant, the glass lotus in his palm suddenly shone brightly, like a dream.
"Bang bang bang-"
"Who is this person fighting against Shen Sidu? Why haven't I heard of such a person? He must be quite powerful!"
"Look at the white robe he is wearing. It looks like a cassock. He must be from a wealthy family."
"I wonder who will win this time. Shen Sidu is really lucky. He was thrown out after his limbs were broken by the Mu family, but he was able to run back. He is not afraid of angering the head of the Mu family."
"What are you afraid of? Miss Mu would rather elope with him than marry him. Shen Sidu is relying on Miss Mu's love for him and has nothing to fear. Otherwise, if he did this, he would have been assassinated by the Mu family head and his men."
"That's right! Then Shen Sidu won't win this time, right? After all, he has Miss Mu's support. Maybe she has some life-saving magic weapon or a rare treasure with extremely high attack power behind him..."
"That makes sense. I bet on Shen Sidu to win!"
"I bet on the masked guy on the other side!"
Amid the noisy discussions of the crowd, a small casino was soon opened off the stage.
They were all practitioners with sharp ears and eyes. Even without deliberately listening, they knew what everyone was talking about.
In the end, the person who bet on Shen Sidu to win was not even half as tall as Pei Jing!
When Shen Sidu heard the result, his face darkened a little, and he was also a little angry with Mu Nanyue.
There was clearly a misunderstanding about what happened before, but Mu Nanyue refused to listen to the explanation, causing him to be seriously injured and thrown out of Beiming City.
Made a fool of himself.
Now that he finally returned, Mu Nanyue turned a blind eye to him and didn't even give him a suitable magic weapon. This game...
While his thoughts were in a mess, Pei Jing, who was still calm and composed on the opposite side, curled the corners of her lips. She thought of the magic weapon given to her by her employer, who asked him not to show mercy, and she was inexplicably in a good mood.
"Bang bang bang--" deafening explosions sounded on the competition stage.
The attacks of the two were like a violent storm, intertwined with each other, and it was difficult to tell who was the winner. Spiritual power surged between Shen Sidu and Pei Jing, forming dazzling rays of light.
The audiences in the audience held their breath and watched this exciting battle nervously, after all, it determined whether they would make a profit or a loss.
On the high platform, Mu Nanyue had perked up her spirits, quietly watching the good show.
As time went by, the competition entered a white-hot stage. Shen Sidu's swordsmanship became more and more sophisticated, and each sword carried the power of thunder, which was amazing.
"Shen Sidu is only over a hundred years old, but he has already reached the Golden Core Stage. He is much more powerful than many young masters of aristocratic families."
"Yes, yes. It's a pity that Shen Sidu is an illegitimate child and has not been recognized by the Shen family. If he had the same resources, he should be no worse than Mr. Shen."
"That's not necessarily true. Young Master Shen has a natural spiritual root. Shen Sidu can't compare to this talent, but his luck is extremely good."
"Shen Sidu's cultivation has already entered the Golden Core Stage. If he can win this competition and become the son-in-law of the Mu family, I think the head of the Shen family will be eager to recognize him as his own son-in-law!"
As the fight between the two became more intense, Shen Sidu still did not lose the upper hand, and more and more people were optimistic about him.
As for Pei Jing on the opposite side, the Glazed Magic Lotus in his hand was constantly changing, with both offensive and defensive capabilities, and he was not at a disadvantage at all.
"The Masked Brother's cultivation is not weak either, and the magic weapon in his hand contains an ancient aura. I'm sure he was just testing Shen Sidu at the beginning, but he will definitely use his ultimate move in the end!"
"Yes, yes, yes..." Those who bet on Pei Jing nodded one after another.
It was already late at night, but the two men on the competition stage were still full of fighting spirit.
Shen Sidu seemed to be testing his opponent and did not use his real trump card.
However, his face was pale and he was obviously tired, but it did not prevent him from displaying his skills to the fullest and attacking Pei Jing continuously.
In the end, after a fierce battle, Shen Sidu and Pei Jing ended in a draw.
They stopped at the same time and looked at each other with complicated expressions. The audience around them did not disperse, but continued to watch quietly.
Seeing that the two had been fighting for so long and were still tied, it was inevitable that he felt a little annoyed.
"what?"
"What does this mean? They obviously didn't try their best? We're here for fun!"
"That's right, this is the Mu family's martial arts competition to recruit a bride, not a friendly match, hurry up!"
Under the urging of the crowd, Shen Sidu's dark eyes stared straight ahead. He was breathing slightly, his chest heaving. On the surface, he looked calm, but he was a little panicked in his heart.
Is it that he doesn't want to win?
Does he want to tie with Pei Jing?
Shen Sidu was amused by the audience's urging, but he felt helpless in his heart because he couldn't say much.
The only default is a draw.
Shen Sidu did not want to admit that the man opposite him, dressed in white clothes as white as snow and with an elegant temperament, was stronger than him.
Thinking of this, his eyes fell on the magic weapon in Pei Jing's hand. It was a lotus surrounded by purple lightning, exuding an ancient aura that made people's scalps tingle. It was obvious at first glance that it was not an ordinary item.
It must be a magical weapon of at least Saint level!
It was obviously Pei Jing's first time on stage, and he took out a holy-level magic weapon to fight him.
He tied with Shen Sidu and almost defeated him with a holy-level magic weapon, but Pei Jing's true strength has not yet been displayed.
What is his natal magic weapon?
Shen Sidu didn't know all this, and he felt angry and jealous.
At the same time, he was also puzzled as to why such a powerful young man from an aristocratic family, an elite junior who could produce a holy-level magic weapon with just one move, would come to this competition to win a bride.
