Gao Sheng pretended to be evasive, but did not refuse the other party's request.

"Your Majesty, I think this is a very interesting thing. You might as well give it a try. Winning or losing is not important, as long as you can show Da Chu's strength."

At this moment, another minister came out and echoed Gao Sheng's words.

Immediately afterwards, several other ministers came out to support.

When King Jin saw this, he said not to be outdone: "Father, I think this kind of occasion needs to be more lively, so as to enhance the friendship between countries."

"Well, I think so too." Gao Sheng nodded lightly.

Seeing Gao Sheng's agreement, the ministers were relieved.

King Jin was also secretly happy, knowing that he had made full preparations for tonight's banquet.

The purpose is to use this incident to hit the prince’s WeChat and make him lose face!

As for Xiao Xian, he didn't take it to heart at all because the identity gap between the two was too big.

As long as Gao Zongxian can be successfully defeated, Xiao Xian's life and death is not a matter of words.

At this time, Xiao Xian narrowed his eyes, looking at King Jin's strange behavior just now.

Coupled with the eye contact between him and the South Vietnamese envoy, Xiao Xian vaguely guessed his purpose.

However, this just confirmed his suspicion that these envoys did have ulterior motives, and they were probably bribed or controlled by King Jin.

It's just that soldiers will block it, water will cover it, and Xiao Xian is not afraid of these things.

At this time, King Jin didn't know that he had been taken care of by someone. He was still thinking triumphantly in his heart about how to teach the prince a lesson and let him know who was the true heir of the dragon.

So Gao Sheng immediately decided to let everyone in the banquet hall move to the martial arts arena for the envoys from various countries to watch the battle.

Under the guidance of the guards, King Jin and his party came to the martial arts field.

Xiao Xian looked around and found that there were many tables and chairs placed around the martial arts arena, and there were many palace maids and eunuchs carrying tables, chairs and benches.

But at this time, the tables, chairs and benches were covered with soft blankets.

In the center of the martial arts arena stood a giant arena, with a variety of gems inlaid on the top.

There are many wooden round seats placed around the ring, with envoys from various countries scattered on them.

In addition, there are special seats at the easternmost position, where members of the royal family such as Gao Sheng and Gao Zongxian are arranged.

Then the envoys from South Vietnam and other countries came to the table one after another.

Xiao Xian found a remote corner and sat down.

In the martial arts arena, King Jin looked eager to try, as if he couldn't wait to perform on stage.

Xiao Xian sat calmly, knowing that today's things would definitely not be that simple.

As expected, someone soon came out to provoke.

"Warriors of Da Chu, do you dare to fight with me?" The envoy of Baiyue Kingdom challenged all the warriors of Da Chu present.

Gao Sheng looked at the envoy and said calmly: "Did your Baiyue Kingdom forget something?"

The envoy was stunned and said doubtfully: "Where did we forget something?"

"Since you have not forgotten, you should abide by the rules and compete according to the rules of my great Chu. Now that your Baiyue Kingdom has broken the rules, should you pay the price?" Gao Sheng said lightly.

"This." The envoy was speechless and didn't know what to say.

"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. Our country, Baiyue, is a country of etiquette. How could we do anything that violates the rules?" the envoy argued eagerly.

"Oh?" Gao Sheng frowned slightly.

"Your Majesty, a small country with few people naturally does not dare to compete with a large country like Chu." The envoy continued.

"I just heard that His Majesty was unparalleled in his bravery and that His Highnesses were also brave and good at fighting. I wonder if Your Highnesses would be willing to give us some guidance to open our eyes?"

As soon as the envoy said this, all the civil and military officials present were in an uproar.

They were all smart people and knew exactly what the envoy meant.

This method is really despicable.

"How does this work?"

"Yes, I, Da Chu, have always been particular about gentlemen using their words but not their actions."

"this."

A group of civil and military ministers chirped.

"My dear friends," Gao Sheng spoke at this moment, "I also think what Baiyue Kingdom said is reasonable. I wonder which prince is willing to go to war?"

Hearing this, the noisy civil and military ministers suddenly fell silent, and all their eyes were focused on the princes, hoping that they would stand up.

Gao Zongxian's expression kept changing, and finally he gritted his teeth and stood up, walking forward.

Seeing Gao Zongxian step forward, the envoy's lips showed a smile of success, and then he stepped aside and watched his performance quietly.

"Father." Gao Zongxian first saluted Gao Sheng with clasped fists, and then said: "As the prince of Chu, it is my duty to do so."

"Very good," Gao Sheng looked at Gao Zongxian happily and said, "I am really lucky to have such a young talent in Dachu."

"Father, I am also willing to fight." At this moment, King Jin suddenly stood up.

"Huh?" The expression on Gao Sheng's face changed slightly for a while, and he finally nodded: "Okay, since King Jin intends to participate, then I am sure."

"Thank you, father." King Jin quickly saluted with his hands raised, and then walked to the middle of the martial arts field.

Gao Zongxian and Prince Jin looked at each other, with a sneer on their lips, and then waved to the side.

Upon seeing this, the envoys from the Baiyue Kingdom looked at each other. The plan was developing in a direction that was beneficial to them, and they couldn't help but look forward to it.

"His Royal Highness, what status do you have? Why don't you let me experience the strength of the warriors of Baiyue Kingdom first?"

This was King Jin's previous plan, and now he jumped out without hesitation, and then went straight to the point and invited the competition.

Gao Zongxian frowned, not expecting that King Jin would steal his limelight.

"I want to see how powerful your Baiyue warriors are." King Jin mocked unceremoniously.

According to the plan, the envoys from the Baiyue country sent several warriors who were tall but not very skilled in martial arts.

These warriors walked to the martial arts arena, bowed to Gao Zongxian, and said, "Your Highness, please enlighten me!"

King Jin nodded, then drew his sword and rushed over. He swung his long sword and stabbed at the Baiyue envoys without any intention of holding back.

Although the Baiyue envoys were all elite, they were still defeated steadily under the fierce offensive of the King of Jin.

In just a moment, the warriors of the Baiyue Kingdom were defeated by the King of Jin.

Gao Zongxian was jealous and angry when he saw the King of Jin showing off his power.

You must know that although he has no knowledge of political affairs, he is still a good fighter, but this time he was upstaged by King Jin, which made him feel very embarrassed.

"Bang." With a muffled sound, King Jin kicked a warrior from the Baiyue Kingdom away.
