"What are you thinking, Your Highness? Actually, what I'm telling you is that I have some issues with Xue Qinghe and I don't want his plan to go smoothly. Don't expect me to help you by pulling in the forces behind me. I have no interest in that. .”
"Anyway, the next emperor of Tiandou will basically be between Xue Qinghe and Xue Beng. It just depends on which side can win in the end. Although it is said that women in Wuhun Palace have succeeded to the throne, but in the Tiandou Empire, princesses like you are a little bit different. There is no capital, so there is no chance.”
Tang Qingxi said this, but it somewhat irritated Xue Ke.
Xue Ke gritted his teeth at this time, full of unwillingness: "You look down on me too much."
"What's the matter, such a big opinion? Do you really have your thoughts? But do you have the capital, and does anyone support you?" Tang Qingxi looked at Xue Ke with an indifferent look.
Xue Ke had clenched her fists at this time, but she really didn't have anything. If it weren't for the conversation between Tang Qingxi and Ning Fengzhi that made her suspicious of Xue Qinghe, and she was shocked to realize that the situation in the Tiandou royal family was very unoptimistic, she wouldn't have come. This time, she was still the princess who had no worries.
In the past, she had never thought about fighting for power and what kind of power she could have.
She has basically no power to win over now, otherwise she wouldn't come back to find Tang Qingxi, whose details are unclear.
"Little girl." Tang Qingxi stood up and rubbed Xue Ke's head very rudely. When Xue Ke got up with an angry look, he pushed her back with force, "I can hire a teacher for you. You first Let’s learn and understand what Machiavellianism is.”
Xue Ke was stunned when he heard this, and ignored Tang Qingxi's disrespectful rubbing of his head: "Teacher?"
"Yes, learn something. Otherwise, if you know so much that you shouldn't know, you may be exposed one day, and I will be unlucky with you." Tang Qingxi had the intention to support Xue Ke and disrupt the situation in Tiandou. , but now I never mention it.
Xue Ke thought for a moment and did not refuse. She didn't dare to win over Tang Qingxi so easily, and to learn something, there was nothing she could refuse.
As for whether what she learned will work or whether it is a trick to her, she will tell after learning it. She thinks she has enough judgment ability.
Later, when Xue Ke's maid came back, Xue Ke asked a lot about the preliminary competition before she got up and left.
Tang Qingxi looked at Xue Ke's back and chuckled.
I can't tell yet whether this girl is a striver, but she doesn't need to be more striver.
Xue Qinghe has a special status, and Xue Beng is still completely unable to compete with Xue Qinghe. When these two people fight, there is a slight gap in strength, but it is not difficult to make a snipe and clam fight and profit from it.
After that, there was not much contact between Tang Qingxi and Xue Ke, and Tang Qingxi also concentrated on practicing.
Soon they ushered in the promotion match.
The promotion round of the Soul Master Competition will not be as lively as the preliminaries. Due to various considerations, no spectators are allowed to watch the promotion match.
The promotion competition is divided into two empires, and a total of thirty teams that have passed the qualifiers compete in their respective empires. The three seed teams that have already entered the finals will not participate in the promotion round.
Here in the Tiandou Empire, a total of fifteen teams, including the five teams that qualified from the Tiandou City division, had completed the registration process in the morning and then gathered at the location of the promotion competition.
There are fewer teams, but these teams are undoubtedly the best of the best.
The ten teams from the five kingdoms and principalities that have passed the qualifiers have arrived earlier, and they need to get familiar with the environment. At the same time, they all came with many promises from the kingdoms or principalities they represented. If you achieve good results, the rewards you can get will not even be worse than Emperor Xue Ye's promise.
After all, those kingdoms and principalities have a greater thirst for talents. Who doesn't want to have more powerful soul masters in his hands?
The number of high-level soul masters is the fundamental measure of a party's power. It is precisely because of this that Wuhun Palace's status is so transcendent that even the two empires dare not offend it easily. Even knowing that those kingdoms and principalities were secretly supported by Wuhun Palace, they dared not speak out.
The Royal Hunting Ground is located fifty kilometers southwest of Tiandou City. The hunting ground has complex terrain and a vast area. It is a place where royal personnel hunt and train.
On weekdays, no civilians are allowed to approach here. Ten thousand people from the Royal Knights patrol and guard the place. At the same time, they also train here, rotating every three months to alternate training to maintain combat effectiveness.
The Royal Knights can be regarded as the strongest force in the hands of the Tiandou Empire's royal family.
In order to avoid unnecessary troubles and conflicts, and to prevent the strength of each college entering the promotion competition from being investigated by other colleges, the fifteen senior soul master college teams entering the promotion competition were arranged in different places. rest.
The royal family of the Tiandou Empire had obviously been prepared for the promotion competition. When Tang Qingxi and others arrived here early in the morning, the first thing they saw was the large and impressive Royal Knights.
"Please show me your handbook." Even though Tang Qingxi and the others were from Tiandou Royal Academy, they were stopped by peripheral personnel of the Royal Knights before entering. They needed to show their handbook, which was the qualification certificate for promotion.
Tang Qingxi handed the certificate to the other party, and the knight wearing silver armor and red tassel on his head immediately saluted everyone with a serious expression.
The knights have also heard of the name of the Tiandou Royal Academy team. They are a very powerful team.
"Welcome, soul masters from the Royal Academy. I am Luo Kesen, captain of the third battalion of the Tiandou Royal Knights. Please follow me." After saying that, he did not mount his horse. Under the escort of the royal knights, he walked towards the hunting ground.
After climbing over a hill, everyone's eyes suddenly opened up. What appeared in front of them was a flat and wide grassland.
On the grassland, large military camps formed a circle.
Everyone was taken to the military camp, and the resting place assigned to them was five barracks.
Before the promotion competition ends, Tang Qingxi and his party will live here.
The promotion competition is also a round-robin system, but because the number of teams has been reduced a lot, the competition time has also been reduced from one month to only half a month.
After resting for half a month, they will go to the junction of the two empires of Tiandou and Star Luo for the final finals.
Luo Kesen gave Tang Qingxi a standard military salute: "Please rest early, the promotion competition will officially start tomorrow. There will be someone to lead you to the competition venue. There will be no opening ceremony for the promotion competition, and the competition will start directly. The outcome of the competition will be decided by the empire and Special personnel from Wuhun Palace will make a joint decision to show fairness."
