Chapter 513 - Squeeze Into the Four Families (1/2)

The families that were defeated sent out stronger descendants to partic.i.p.ate in the game. Soon, the twelve contestants in the game were increased to twenty-four again.

Ah Luo was having a great time with the chicken, so Gu Bailu didn’t have her partic.i.p.ate this time.

The game was about to commence, when the second prince suddenly stood up and said, “Grandmother, single compet.i.tions are boring. Why don’t we have team battles? Isn’t that how the Sword Test of the three countries is carried out?”

The emperor nodded. “Mother, I think that team battles are better as well. We can have two-on-two or three-on-three matches.”

“Let’s make it three-on-three.”

The Sword Test was a three-on-three compet.i.tion of the three countries that was held every twenty years.

The winning country would be allowed to make grand requests of the other countries, which had to accede to the requests provided that they weren’t asked to surrender their reign.

Thus, the Sword Test was of paramount importance to all the countries.

When the twenty-four candidates were divided into groups of three, the game proceeded much quicker.

Gu Bailu wasn’t really excited by the game. After all, none of the contestants was as strong as Feng Qingtian, Gu Yunjing or Ah Luo, and their attacks weren’t impressive at all. She only hoped that the elites of the n.o.ble families could join sooner so that she could see how good they were.

After one round, four out of eight groups remained. They were none other than from the Murong family, the w.a.n.g family, the Bai family and the Qi family.

The four greatest n.o.ble families certainly deserved their fame.

Gu Bailu looked at w.a.n.g Dachong, and w.a.n.g Dachong happened to be looking at her. He smiled.

Gu Bailu raised her cup in silent “congratulations.”

w.a.n.g Dachong grinned and decided to send out stronger candidates now that his G.o.ddess had blessed him.

Actually, few people in the w.a.n.g family itself were strong, but the w.a.n.g family was rich and had a lot of experts from outside, which enabled them to stay on par with the other n.o.ble families.

When Feng Qingtian flew into a rage previously, a lot of people in the w.a.n.g family were killed, but those outside experts weren’t affected at all.
