Chapter 35 Final Examination for the Association (II)
Today's final trial saw a very dramatic scene. The super expert Feilong's disciple Falcon and the other super expert Liefeng's disciple Zhuque both won the third group.
So whoever of them can win the third group will be the biggest suspense in this group stage.
The bets were very popular, and almost everyone in the audience was betting on these two people, who could win the first place in the three groups?
Of course, the two must have advanced side by side and advanced to the next round of the game. The people in the same group as them can only say that they are not lucky.
Yang Hui sat in the north stands and laughed proudly. Chen Tai was still awesome and tampered with the lottery draw, allowing Li Ye to join the Death Group. Of course, these two masters must have tampered with the lottery draw.
But this is not important. Everyone hopes that the two of them will be in the same group so that the game will be more gambled.
At this time, the VIP seats in the North Stand were also watching the ball one after another. Sining King Li Lin came. He glanced at him and saw Yang Guozhong's eldest son Yang Xuan.
Li Lin asked with a faint smile: "Where is your father?"
Yang Xuan hurriedly said, "My father is a little sick, so he can't come today."
Speaking of which, Li Lin and the Yang family have some in-law relationship, so Pei, the daughter of Lady Guo Guo, married Li Xun, Li Lin's brother.
But Li Lin and the Yang family also had a grudge. His brother Li Xun died of illness less than a year after marrying Pei. It is said that it was related to Pei's reliance on his mother's power and domineering and bullying her husband.
Not long after Li Xun died, Pei remarried and often mocked his ex-husband without any concealment at banquets.
Li Lin's resentment towards the Yang family came from this. Last year, he criticized Yang Guozhong for committing fraud in the treasury. Emperor Li Longji did not adopt his suggestion to re-invent the treasury, but Yang Guozhong was extremely dissatisfied with him.
Of course, this kind of personal grudge cannot be seen on the surface. At this time, Manager Qiao came over and whispered to Li Lin's ear, and Li Lin couldn't help but frowned.
He asked Yang Xuan with a smile again, "Have you bet by Mr. Yang?"
Yang Xuan nodded, "I just bet on the third group of Falcons for 500 stags."
Li Lin asked Qiao Da to take charge of the business, and Qiao Da went there quickly.
Li Lin said lightly: "I'll also invest 500 points!"
An undetectable sneer flashed in Yang Xuan's eyes, and he asked respectfully: "I don't know who the prince is cast, Falcon or Vermilion Bird?"
Li Lin smiled, "I'm sorry to keep it a secret, I'll know after the game is over!"

There will be a total of ten group knockout matches in the morning, with three groups being held at the same time in each game.
The three groups were specially arranged in the last game, and there were thirteen and twenty-one groups at the same time, but no one cared about these two groups.
Everyone in the audience was paying attention to the third group, the competition for the title of Falcon and Vermilion Bird, and they also represent their respective masters. In the minds of many people, this is actually a battle between Feilong and Liefeng.
Polo competitions implement a nickname system and do not use real names. This is also to protect players from harassment by fans. In the second year of the Shengli period, a polo player lost the team due to a batting error and was assassinated at home by a gambler who lost badly.
This incident made people panic among polo players. In order to protect polo players and separate polo players from real life, two changes have been made in the polo game. First, the ball player's nickname system is implemented, and each player uses the nickname. Second, the player is allowed to paint on the field and put on makeup on his face.
Li Ye has already entered the competition venue by horse. He is nicknamed Feisha, and his eyes are painted in blue and white, just like wearing an eye mask, which is quite mysterious.
At this time, he saw the falcon and the Vermilion Bird, one red and one white. The falcon was wearing a white samurai suit, while the Vermilion Bird was wearing a red samurai suit.
Intuition, these two people are both around sixteen or seventeen years old. What surprised Li Ye even more was that Zhuque seemed to be a girl, with her tall figure and white skin on her cheeks, which clearly looked like a young woman.
It can only be said that Li Ye is rare and strange. Everyone in Chang'an knows that Liefeng is a woman and teaches the concubines in the harem to play basketball. Her apprentice is of course a woman.
Tang women are unrestrained and playing polo is also popular among women, but women usually ride donkeys to play polo.
Therefore, there are many female players among professional polo players, but they do not participate in high-confrontation martial arts competitions, but mainly focus on literary competitions.
It is precisely because Suzaku is a woman that it aroused great interest from the audience.
Ten candidates in the third group rode a horse and tied with each other. The examiner shouted to them: "This is an elimination system. We must decide the top spot. The first and second places will enter the finals. Others can only compete next year. The following is the first round competition. Three goals in the fifty-step line must be passed by all three goals!"
The first person to appear was Falcon. He was only seventeen years old. No one knew his name or his family background. But everyone knew that he was the youngest disciple of Feilong. In Chang'an, the name Falcon was already very famous.
The Falcon ran around the horse, and with the sound of a drum, the Falcon urged the horse to run, swing the ball, and the three balls were completed in one go, all into the hole.
Suddenly, the audience was cheering, and Li Ye nodded secretly, and he was indeed playing beautifully.
The Falcon proudly raised his head, looked at Zhuque, and rode his horse back to the team. The second one was Zhuque. She was very calm and urged the horse to move slowly. Her figure was extremely elegant. When the drum sounded, she suddenly rode the horse and rang, swinging and hitting continuously, just like flowing clouds and water, three balls entered the hole accurately.
Li Ye glanced at the Falcon. He thought the Falcon would look down on his opponent, but unexpectedly he keenly captured a trace of concern in the Falcon's eyes.
Li Ye suddenly realized that this Falcon Brother might have a little affection for this beautiful female golfer.
The audience was cheering again, and the two tied, and the next one became even more exciting.
Below are the other eight players playing games, so there are not many people who care about it. Many people take advantage of this opportunity to buy snacks or go to the toilet.
Of course, Zhang Xiaopang stared at Li Ye. He took out all his savings today, with a total of two cents of money. He bet on Li Ye's Yi Guan, and this group match also bet on Li Ye's Yi Guan.
In fact, it was not only him, but the other three friends, Qiao Bin, Ma Jinsong and Du Wang, who also invested ten taels of silver on Li Ye, and only six people bet on Li Ye.
In the VIP seat, Li Lin chatted and laughed with several officials, but his eyes were staring at the stadium. He threw five hundred marks on Li Ye.
His chief manager Qiao Xingzhong also bet on twenty coins, but he did not bet on Li Ye, but bet on Falcons. He felt that Li Ye was still lacking in his experience in the competition.
Li Ye is the ninth appearance, with only two passing in front of him, and the other four are too nervous and performing very poorly.
Li Ye urged the horse to take a few steps. When the drum sounded, he rode his horse and swung his ball. He also shot three consecutive shots. The polo entered the hole, neatly and neatly.
There were only sparse applause in the stands, and all were polite applause.
Zhuque looked at Li Ye's club in surprise. Li Ye's club was pitch black all over and inconspicuous. The reason why Zhuque recognized it was because her master also used ironwood clubs. She knew that the club was heavy and the candidate was very powerful!
The tenth candidate also missed, scoring only two goals, and the third goal only hit the board.
Five people were eliminated in the first round, and the other five people entered the second round of the competition. The stands were paying attention again, and the Falcons and Suzaku were about to enter the second round of the competition.
The second round is fifty steps and five goals, no mistakes are allowed, and you must score all in one breath.
The drum sounded, and the Falcons ran away again, swinged and hit the ball in one go. He played very easily. His highest record was fifty steps and ten goals, and the difficulty in front of him was nothing to him.
The applause was like a tsunami, and most people bet on him, hoping that he could win the first place.
Zhuque appeared, but he was still so elegant and calm. Li Ye had an intuition that this girl must be a lady from a wealthy family and her temperament was so outstanding.
The drum sounded, and the Vermilion Bird shouted lightly, and his whole body was full of murderous aura. He rode his horse quickly, his hands were raised and his pole fell, one ball after another, without any dragging, and the polos arranged in the air like a meteor, which was extremely pleasing to the eye, and five balls entered the hole.
Cheers were everywhere, and even Li Ye couldn't help but applaud. This woman played polo in an art performance.
In the second round, the two tied again, and the three people behind were all foiled by Green Leaf, and basically no one cared about it.
The third and fourth candidates were obviously not at their best. Playing three goals in a row was already their peak. Playing five goals was not at this level, and the two were eliminated one after another.
Li Ye was the last of the five people to play. He rode his horse and walked slowly around. At this time, Zhuque became a little interested in him. She already knew that the young man was nicknamed Feisha, with a very domineering nickname, especially when he actually used ironwood clubs. She heard from his master that no second person used ironwood clubs.
This young man's identity is a bit mysterious!
"Kill!" Li Ye shouted in a low voice, galloping in the drums, and five shots were hit in a row, like flowing clouds and water, with five polos entering the hole accurately.
