Xue Chang stood on the sidelines and shouted, and the people on the field really stopped training immediately and walked towards the sidelines one after another. However, some people were still uneasy, so they heard Lu Lingyun say, "Brother Xue, even if we return to the room, we can't sleep. When we think about tomorrow... if we lose, we will be embarrassed by the master's sect, and we will still be in the mood to sleep!"

"Sister Lu, I became nervous when you said this." Hu Qiudi followed, the names between the two factions were so chaotic.

Xue Chang laughed and pointed at his five disciples one by one: "You have been learning martial arts for less than two years-" and pointed at Lu Lingyun and other disciples of the Goddess Palace: "Although you have practiced martial arts since childhood, have you ever been out there so far? Have you ever experienced the test of life and death?—"

He looked around everyone and said in a more intense tone: "There are hundreds of martial arts sects in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there are so many strange people. Those who can be selected to appear at the martial arts conference are outstanding figures in various sects. Not only are they skilled, but they are also rich in experience in the martial arts world. You are just newbies who have no advantage compared to them. It is normal to lose, but only if you win is worthy of celebration. So you should go to the court to compete with a normal mind, just treat it as the experience prepared by the court for you newbies, study hard and accumulate fighting experience, which will help you improve your martial arts skills. You must look forward to the long-term. The most important thing is to protect yourself and not be injured easily, otherwise you will not be able to continue participating in the subsequent competitions and will not be able to continue to improve. Do you understand?"

"I understand!" The disciples responded in unison, clearly feeling that their mood was much more relaxed.

"Everyone hurry up and go back to rest. I will go to the rounds later. If anyone is not asleep, he will catch it and hit the board." Xue Chang pretended to be extremely vicious and joked.

The disciples burst into laughter.

"Brother Xue, I will open the door before going to bed and wait for you to check the room, but do you dare?" Tang Lingyun suddenly said.

"How dare he? If Senior Sister Luo knows, he will feel better." Lu Lingyun immediately responded.

The disciples burst into laughter again and then ran away quickly.

"These guys are neither big nor small, but they actually dare to tease me." Xue Chang cursed with a laugh, and an angry voice came from behind him: "Yes, Master Xue, everyone listens to you very much. But who allows you to say that to my Goddess Palace disciples, instigating them to be greedy for life and fear death in the battle, and not take action at all. Do you want my Goddess Palace to make a fool of yourself in front of the martial arts sects of the Great Zhou Dynasty?!"

"I said, Gongzhu Gu, you underestimate this martial arts conference too much. In the highly anticipated scene, it is difficult for young people like them to control themselves from their own efforts. But they are all so nervous now. They will be even more nervous on the court. How can they effectively respond in the fight? So I asked them to put down their burdens and keep a normal mind. Even if they encounter difficulties in the competition, they can calmly think about countermeasures and give full play to their abilities when they think of what I said tonight. Are you right?" Xue Chang ignored Gu Shijing's anger and talked freely. After all, as a sports student in his previous life, he had participated in the municipal and provincial games many times in college. Although he had never won any good rankings, his competition experience was rich.

Gu Shijing snorted, then mocked: "You are a disagreement and tell them that it is normal to fail, but before, he publicly claimed in the palace that he wanted to defeat everyone and get the imperial title of marquis."

Xue Chang immediately retorted: "I am seeking truth from facts, okay? I think I have this ability, so I dare to say this. I think they still lack something, so I let them not be under pressure and go on the battlefield easily. Besides, I did not claim to defeat everyone, but just said that I would be granted the title of marquis. Don't mislead everyone."

"President Xue, you publicly said at the palace banquet that you would obtain a title of marquis through this martial arts conference?!" Zhou Wanyao asked in surprise.

"Yes, because the emperor said that if I could do it, he would agree to the marriage between me and Lan Meng." Xue Chang replied.

"But-" Zhou Wanyao was still waiting for it, but Xue Chang didn't want to get into the nagging of several women. Then he said: "It's very late, I have to go and rest quickly to accumulate my energy and welcome tomorrow's battle. You can go and rest quickly, and tomorrow we will be on stage. Besides, going to bed early will also be good for your skin."

After Xue Chang finished speaking, she turned around and left.

Zhou Wanyao was embarrassed to call him again, so she had to ask Gu Shijing: "Senior Sister, is what you said just now true?"

"Can I still lie to you?" Gu Shijing said angrily, and then briefly said what happened to Xue Chang at the palace banquet.

Zhou Wanyao's face soon showed worries and complained: "It would be so easy to pass the martial arts conference and eventually defeat one or two of the six national guardians! If he couldn't do it, the emperor could not break his promise and marry Meng'er to him, and then try to pass other methods. It would be difficult! Why is this child so impulsive!"

After getting along these days, Zhou Wanyao has unknowingly regarded Xue Chang as her son-in-law, and in desperation, even her name has changed.

"Senior sister, don't worry. We have seen it all these days. Master Xue is not an impulsive person. I think he is sure to make an agreement with the emperor. In this way, things will become simple. He successfully won the title and the emperor gave him a marriage. Uncle Liu and us have nothing to worry about." Yan Ranling comforted Zhou Wanyao.

"But...but things are not that simple-" Zhou Wanyao sighed lightly, wanting to say something.

Yan Ranling interrupted again, "Senior sister, don't think too much. Things have happened. We can't change now. Let's worry about tomorrow's affairs first. To be honest, I was a little nervous just now. After Master Xue said that, I really relaxed a lot. So, for a female sect like us, at a critical moment, there must be a man in front of you."

"Yan Ranling, what do you mean by saying this?" Gu Shijing was so angry that she immediately asked.

Yan Ranling ignored it, turned around and walked towards the bedroom, and waved her hand and said, "Everyone hurry up and rest, keep your spirits up, and strive for a good start tomorrow."

Half an hour later, the candlelight in the Goddess Palace mansion had been extinguished and completely fell into the tranquility of the night...

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

In the early morning of the next day, Xue Chang still woke up from the system's Nine Yang Divine Arts practice on time, feeling clear and full of energy. He turned over and got up, pushed open the wooden window, and immediately the golden sunlight shone into the house, dyeing the whole room golden, and the breeze blows on his cheeks, making people feel refreshed.

Today is a really good weather for a competition!... Xue Chang looked at the blue clear sky outside the window and felt more and more happy.

After washing up, during breakfast, Xue Chang met Tang Lingyun, a disciple of the Goddess Palace, and said that her eyes "have dark eyes, she must have not slept well last night, she must have been timid and scared..." and so on.

In fact, martial arts practitioners occasionally can't sleep well for a day, so there will be no obvious signs on their faces. But he looked serious, and Tang Lingyun was a little guilty and tried his best to defend himself. Instead, the clues were seen by others, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to themselves: Even the senior sister with the best martial arts skills is like this, it is normal for me to sleep well...

Everyone's nervous mood suddenly eased.

After breakfast, three carriages sent by the Grand Princess Liu Lingying also arrived. Everyone packed up and prepared to set off.

Xue Chang looked at the five disciples standing in front of him. They were wearing Xiaoyao Sect's strong suits and swords, all of them were energetic and majestic. When she recalled her cold appearance when she first accepted them as her disciples, she couldn't help but feel deeply moved, so she said seriously: "This time you represent the Xiaoyao Sect to participate in the sect competition. I hope you will remember it - try not to be injured. This time the martial arts conference schedule is very long, and there are only five of you in our Xiaoyao Sect. If you hurt one, no one will replace them. So if you find that the situation is not good during the competition, you should admit defeat immediately and don't be ashamed.

I firmly believe that you will become famous all over the world in the future, and my Xiaoyao Sect can also be intimidating because of you. But now you are still young, so let’s first regard this martial arts conference as a good trial. To participate in more battles, to experience the martial arts of various sects in the world, and to accumulate experience from it will help you improve your martial arts. Do you understand?"

"I understand, Master!" The five disciples responded in unison.

"In addition, I can't follow you to the stadium, so after you arrive at the stadium, you must obey your senior brother's command. If I know who dares not listen to his greetings and act without authorization, I would rather fight one less person in the Xiaoyao Sect in the future than let him play on the game again. Do you understand?" Xue Chang looked at Fan Yu when he said this.

Therefore, in response, Fan Yu had the highest volume: "I understand, Master!"

"Master, if the senior brother goes to the game or leaves temporarily for other things, there must be someone among the four of us to take on the responsibility of leading the team, right?" Hu Qiudi said.

Xue Chang was stunned for a moment. He didn't really think about this. He thought about it and nodded and said, "Your proposal is very good. Let's do this. Xiaoxi is the captain. Just be the deputy captain. You are responsible for managing everyone when he is not here. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Master!" Hu Qiudi responded happily.

Fan Yu curled his lips.

"Xiao Xi, when you arrive at the stadium, if you encounter difficulties, you can't solve them, so I'll ask Elder Zhou of the Goddess Palace and Lord Jiang of our Martial Arts to help. I've already agreed to them." Xue Chang reminded.

Since the achievements of the martial arts sects in various regions at this martial arts conference may affect Emperor Taixiang's perception of the martial arts sects in various regions, most of the martial arts sects have also come to Luoyang, and Jiang Shijia is no exception. He also visited the door because of the special Goddess Palace. He unexpectedly found that the Xiaoyao Sect actually lived in this mansion, and was surprised. He himself was responsible for taking good care of the disciples of the martial arts sects in Bashu who entered Beijing and allowing them to win a better ranking in the martial arts conference. Therefore, when Xue Chang mentioned this to him, he agreed without hesitation.
