Chapter 24: Once in a lifetime
Carriages are parked inside and outside the university mansion. The huge martial arts performance venue outside the main entrance of the university mansion is now crowded with people, as if a grand performance is about to be held here.
Even some princes and princesses in the Forbidden City came over to join in the fun and booked a private room in the martial arts venue early.
All of this was due to the bet between Princess Yitai and Tang Xiao three months ago.
In order to avoid Tang Xiao's tricks, Princess Yitai used her energy to send invitations to all the princes and nobles in Taijing who could notify her, and asked them to come and observe her and Tang Xiao's fight against the engagement.
Princess Yitai didn't know that the engagement storm a few months ago and this engagement fight had long become gossip rumors that everyone in Taijing City was popular with, especially those boring ladies and ladies in the nobles' palaces, including princes and princesses in the palace, and even some princes. Even if Princess Yitai didn't send an invitation, they would come to join in today's fun.
There are also those forces who are afraid of Tang Yuan, the Marquis of Zhenguo, who are usually afraid of being aggrieved by Tang Yuan, and then they also came to the university office to see the joke of Tang Xiao, the son of Tang Yuan, and see how he was beaten by Princess Yitai, and then canceled his engagement with Princess Yitai in pain.
Moreover, people have already had a foreshadowing that this will be an extremely wonderful scene of "toad want to eat swan meat". As a result, the swan meat was not eaten and was kicked away by a swan. Some people even had a foreshadowing that this tragic topic with Tang Xiao as the protagonist can replace the bizarre disappearance of the third master of Xu Ming, Huang Quan and Hu Ping, and become a new topic of talk for boring people, allowing the entire capital of Taijing to talk about the past year after dinner.
So, all the gossip spirits and people who were so idle in Taijing gathered here.
When he first entered the university residence, Tang Xiao didn't know that these people were all here for him. He just thought that it was almost the end of the year and that there was a grand ceremony in the university residence. It was not until he completed a routine report on the literary and martial arts strategy to the Taifu in the university residence that Zhu Qian came to find him that he realized that these people were all here for him.
Tang Xiao snorted coldly. Of course he knew why these people came from. If it weren't for his jokes, they wouldn't be so happy.
The marriage between the Marquis of Zhenguo and the Royal Family was cancelled, which was popular among many nobles in Taijing. Tang Xiao was beaten publicly by Princess Yitai, which happened to make a sigh of anger for the oppression they had received from Tang Yuan of Zhenguo.
Tang Xiao often wondered why his father, Tang Yuan, had so many enemies in the court. Until now, Tang Xiao discovered that except for the extermination of Hu, Zhu Kun, who had no power in the court, the extermination of Hu, Zhu Kun, had almost no allies.
When Tang Xiao's figure appeared in the martial arts performance venue, nearly a thousand people in the audience suddenly became excited, and it was obvious that 90% of them were cheering.
Tang Xiao, the most typical second-generation official and second-generation rich, and playboys, are the objects of envy, jealousy and hatred by most people in this world. Who else should I cheer for if I don’t cheer for him?
Zhu Xianer, the most beautiful girl in Taijing, is the princess Yitai who is loved by thousands of people. She is born the king of topics. Any topic related to her will trigger heated discussions on the streets and alleys.
It is a once-in-a-lifetime experience when these two people meet together.
Tang Xiao looked around the stands of the martial arts venue coldly, those who were open, secret, hatred, jealous, and all those who wished he could lose face or even die. He secretly swears in his heart that sooner or later, I will step on you all under my feet!
Those who dare to provoke me and those who dare to rebel against me are all just one word, die!!
Princess Yitai wrapped her tight clothes with golden silk embroidered dragon pattern, setting off her beautiful figure, and a marten cloak was also worn on her shoulders. She was sitting with a group of princes and princesses and scholars from the royal family. Among these princes and princesses, Xu Gang's son Xu Qiao was listed.
Xu Qiao's eyes at Tang Xiao were the most sinister. A few months ago, the Xu family proposed marriage first. The emperor had been slow to agree to the marriage on the grounds that Princess Yitai was young. Unexpectedly, when the Tang family proposed marriage to the emperor, the emperor actually agreed. He ignored the Xu family's face and engaged Princess Yitai and the useless young master of the Tang family.
And Xu Qiao knew very well that his younger brother Xu Ming was probably killed by an unknown evil man because he wanted to vent his anger for him. His whereabouts are still unknown and he may no longer be alive. Of course, this account must be kept in Tang Xiao.
For Princess Yitai, destroying her engagement with Tang Xiao does not mean that she will marry into the Xu family. She is dissatisfied with Tang Xiao, a waste of martial arts scholar, but she just has no disgust towards Xu Qiao. What she is concerned about now is the fight with Tang Xiao.
Princess Yitai never thought that this martial arts waste could improve in these three months, so she only practiced normally in these three months. She did not use a day as five days and ten days when she was fighting with the sun and moon like Tang Xiao.
"I didn't expect so many people wanted to watch Tang Xiao's jokes!" The stands around the martial arts venue were crowded with people.
"You can't let Zhenguo Hou hear this."
"Haha, so what if I hear it? Originally, the Tang family is my hero and stupid son, and he doesn't know about Tang Yuan."
"Princess Yitai must not show mercy. It is best to give that waste..."
"What did you give?"
"Hahaha, you all understand... It made him completely lose that function..."
"The waste is here, whisper, don't let him hear it."
"So what if you hear it? Are you still afraid that a useless person will think of you? Can Zhenguo Hou protect him for the rest of his life? Hum!"
Hearing the discussion around him, Princess Yitai looked in the direction of everyone's fingers. Tang Xiao was walking in from there step by step towards the martial arts field. He looked a little lonely, but even his best friend Zhu Qian didn't dare to stand beside him, probably because he was afraid of being drowned by everyone's saliva.
A few dozen meters away from the air, Princess Yitai and Tang Xiao's eyes looked at each other. For some reason, Princess Yitai's heart trembled for no reason...
In three months, Tang Xiao seemed to have undergone great changes. He grew at least ten centimeters taller than three months ago, and became as tall as his father Tang Yuan. Not only that, his figure has also become extremely strong and burly, giving people the feeling of being reborn.
Tang Xiao's cold eyes were like a sharp sword, and the place he swept through was silent. There were naturally many strong masters on the stands in the martial arts field. They were a little confused at the moment. Why did Tang Xiao seem to be surrounded by a powerful aura that only warriors above the Earth Yuan level have?
Maybe it's an illusion?
Through Tang Xiao's cold gaze, the onlookers felt an extremely tough soul, a soul that seemed to have come out of hell. This soul was so tough that even if they just looked at each other from the air, they would tremble in the depths of their souls.
Too strange!
Tang Xiao walked into the martial arts field and clearly felt the soul behind countless gazes in the martial arts field. He seemed to want to overwhelm him and push him down, at least to make him struggling. However, whenever his cold eyes looked back in the direction of the pressure, the pressure suddenly dissipated invisible.
This is a confrontation between souls. In the last life, he had endured so much suffering, and no one had ever defeated this tough soul. In this life, after the baptism of the energy of heaven and earth, he became more tenacious and stronger, and of course he was less likely to succumb to any pressure from the outside world.
Tang Xiao walked to the center of the martial arts venue, carrying his hands on his back, looking around the stands, and felt aura of despising all living beings in the world.
The strong are not only in terms of force, but also in terms of souls. The strong men in terms of force conquer people with their strength, while the strong men in the soul have the domineering aura of kings that is deeply rooted in the bone marrow and cannot be imitated at all. Even if someone can imitate their form, they will be quickly defeated in this kind of soul battle.
Tang Xiao, who is now proudly standing in the center of the martial arts field, is obviously a super powerful being who cannot be defeated!
