Chapter 329

The competition was still hosted by Pu Siyi as he solemnly announced. "Today's battle will be conducted by drawing lots. In order to be fair, Princess Lanchu will be the one to draw lots!"

With that said, Princess Lanchu stood up from the VIP seating area.

Today, her hair was like a waterfall without any makeup, and her face was flawless.

She wore a noble long dress, showing off her elegant figure. With a few steps, she had already arrived at the martial arts arena and appeared in front of the six participants.

Looking at the princess from such a close distance, her temperament was like an orchid in an empty valley, causing one to have a heart that could not be profaned.

"After today, this woman will be mine."

Huangfu Qingming sneered in his heart.

He had always thought highly of himself and believed that only a few people with beautiful looks and noble bloodlines were worthy of him in this world.

And this Ji Lanchu was one of them.

He was very satisfied with all aspects of her, especially her physique, which could help him improve further.

Gu Chen also looked at Princess Lanchu with a faint smile on his face.

"Your Highness, please draw lots."

Pu Siyi handed over the lottery box.

The box was completely opaque and was even equipped with a divine sense restriction. There were a total of six lots with the names of the six participants written on them.

Princess Lanchu nodded and casually drew two lots.

"First battle, Zhou Wenjue against Qu He."

She drew two more.

"Second battle, Gu Chen against Mu Tianci."

"Third battle, Sun Jinming against Huangfu Qingming."

The order of the competition was out, and Pu Siyi asked Princess Lanchu in a slightly mocking tone.

"Your Highness, one of these six will become your husband. Do you have anything to say to them? Or is there one that you are especially satisfied with? "

This question was also what the audience was curious about, and they all started to make a ruckus.

Ji Lanchu smiled without saying a word and walked towards the six participants.

Instantly, their eyes revealed a look of anticipation.

She directly walked past Zhou Wenjue, Qu He, and the Demon King, and stopped in front of the youth named Mu Tianci.

"Senior Brother Mu, why do you have to get involved in this mess?"

She said softly.

"Junior Sister Lanchu, I've liked you since I was still in the True Martial Arts Academy. Naturally, I have to give it a try in this Martial Arts Competition no matter what!"

Mu Tianci seemed to be from the Azure Wood Manor and was related to Mu Ziyu by blood. He was speaking extremely seriously.

"My heart already belongs to someone."

Ji Lanchu rejected him directly.

"Are you Huangfu Qingming?"

Mu Tianci's face turned ugly for a moment.

Ji Lanchu didn't reply and walked towards Huangfu Qingming and Gu Chen.

A smile hung on Huangfu Qingming's face when he saw her walking over.

No matter what happened between him and Ji Lanchu, it seemed that she had chosen him in the end.

After all, he was the only one who was worthy of her.

Under Huangfu Qingming's smiling gaze, Ji Lanchu directly passed him and actually stopped in front of Gu Chen!

Then, a scene that shocked the entire audience appeared.

They saw Ji Lanchu abandon the restraint of a young girl and gently hug Gu Chen!

"You have to win."

She whispered into Gu Chen's ear as her face blushed.

For a princess of a country to do such a thing in front of so many people required immense courage!

Just from this point alone, it was obvious that Princess Lanchu was the one in her heart!

Hua —

The hundreds of thousands of spectators were in an uproar as the clamor shook the heavens!

Emperor Yang Hong nearly stood up on the spot. Crown Prince Ji Zefang was also dumbfounded.

This Gu Chen originally believed that his participation in the Martial Arts Competition was purely to deal with the Huangfu family. When did he end up tricking his sister away …?

"Heavens, Princess Lanchu has made her choice!"

Pu Siyi subconsciously blurted out. She never expected that the cultured Princess Lanchu would have such courage.

A large number of female spectators screamed. With their rich imagination, they quickly guessed the reason for the joust for a spouse. They were extremely excited.

To challenge the prodigies of the Nine Provinces for love, the Tyrant actually had such a gentle side!

All the males in the audience cast envious and jealous gazes at Gu Chen, while some were convinced. As for the females, they were looking forward to the beautiful future.

Huangfu Qingming, who was next to Gu Chen, had the ugliest expression on his face. He had seen Princess Lan Chu throw herself into another man's arms with his own eyes. His eyes had turned red and his body was trembling with extreme anger.

Last night, his grandfather called him over and told him about the current situation the Huangfu family was facing. When he found out that the Huangfu family was being forced into a corner by a surviving member of the Gu family, his desire to kill Gu Chen was already extremely strong.

And right before his eyes, his fiancée was actually snatched away by him openly, causing new hatred and old hatred to surge in his heart.

"I must kill him, I must kill him!"

His expression became ferocious. The members of the Huangfu family in the audience, including Huangfu Wuji himself, were all embarrassed.

Princess Lanchu only gave him a light hug, then she recovered her shyness and returned to the VIP seating area.

But because of this hug, the outcome of the match changed.

"The first match, Zhou Wenjue against Qu He!"

Pu Siyi announced the start of the first match. At this moment, the two participants revealed a bitter smile.

"We forfeit."

In the first two days of the competition, they fought intensely with over a thousand participants and only emerged victorious when they were on the verge of exhaustion.

Originally, they hadn't recovered much of their condition today, and there were countless hidden injuries in their bodies. It seemed like it was impossible for them to win.

Just now, they saw that Princess Lanchu already had her Mr. Right, so they felt that it was even more meaningless and decided to forfeit.

"Alright."

Pu Siyi looked at the two of them sympathetically. She could understand their feelings.

To be honest, the majority of the audience today wasn't here to watch them. He was happy that their match would end earlier.

Because, even he himself was looking forward to the later matches.

The withdrawal of the two participants did not cause much of a stir. When it was Gu Chen's turn, the entire audience cast looks of anticipation!

Overlord Gu Chen was the victor of the second battle zone, but he had used his terrifying Connate dominance to suppress all the experts present.

Today, his opponent was a publicly recognized genius of the Azure Wood Manor. It was unknown if he could win as easily as before.

Mu Tianci's outline resembled Mu Ziyu's, and he could be considered a pretty boy.

His body exuded the fragrance of plants, and as he looked at Gu Chen, his eyes burned with fighting spirit.

"I never expected that Junior Sister Lanchu would like you."

He said coldly.

"Since you know that, why don't you fulfill her wish and forfeit this match?"

Gu Chen answered calmly.

He was only considering his battle with Huangfu Qingming. As for the others, it was best if he could finish them quickly.

"Heh, how can I let you get Junior Sister Lanchu so easily?"

Mu Tianci clearly did not admit defeat as easily as the previous participants. His body emitted a resplendent green light.
