Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1375: Chapter 1327: Pure Mischief

At this time, the group of girls behind Chen Xi were practically celebrating the New Year, with all sorts of cheers. There was no way around it; both Liaoo Hua and Liaoo Hua’s opponent seemed to have no good method against each other.

”What’s the name of Yuanjian’s opponent?” At this moment, Liu Bei couldn’t bother chatting idly with Chen Xi anymore; he didn’t expect it to be such a close match. It might end up like the one between Li Tiao and Lyu Qiling, both getting injured with little difference between advancing or not, no matter how strong they are.

”Juu Fu, Juu Xiaoxing, recommended by Xingba, but he came a bit late, over a month after Xingba had already set sail. I helped him sign up for the military course.” Lub Su said with a wry smile, at that time he really hadn’t noticed Juu Fu was such a good fighter.

Back when the Gan Family was relocating, some aristocratic families from Sichuan and Shu wanted to tag along as well. However, due to the situation, they eventually gave up. But some families that had a good relationship with the Gan Family saw the potential and decided to join in.

Juu Fu was also from Ba Commandery, practically from the same place as the Gan Family. There was some friendship between the two sides. The Juu Family, seeing Liu Bei’s promising situation and with help from fellow provincials, decided to place their bet as well.

Although Gan Ning was a bit of a fool, he did have regional pride. Moreover, even though Juu Fu was young, he indeed had some skills. Gan Ning thought about it and got him a letter of recommendation. To be honest, Gan Ning held quite a bit of sway on Liu Bei’s side.

Initially, when Lub Su saw that Juu Fu had Gan Ning’s recommendation letter, he was going to arrange for Juu Fu to serve under Zang Ba as a Sima of Separate Division in charge of five hundred men.

The plan was to have Zang Ba see what exactly Juu Fu excelled at in terms of command, and if he had any special directions for development, but then Juu Fu found out there was a military course and said he wanted to earn a position honorably by his own competence.

At that time, Lub Su wanted to retort, Gan Ning may be a fool, but he’s not dishonest. However, since Juu Fu wanted to participate, he let him. Lub Su signed Juu Fu up, and now it’s heading towards a both sides suffer situation.

”This situation’s not looking good.” At this moment, Li Youu’s face also turned somewhat grim. Sure enough, Liaoo Hua and Juu Fu were evenly matched, and both were bleeding now. Moreover, for some reason, their rate of improvement during the battle was the same.

”This is truly like a meeting of equals, a clash of titans. Looks like it’s going to end with mutual defeat again.” Chen Xi continued to stir trouble from the side. Seeing this group looking so worried made Chen Xi want to laugh.

”Sister, why do you seem a bit unhappy?” Cai Zhenji looked strangely at Cai Yan and asked.

”It’s okay to win in other subjects, but in this one, Yunlu shouldn’t win unless by her own strength. Winning would just be troublesome and would harm Lord Xuande’s foundation.” Cai Yan said helplessly, ”Sister, please go fetch Physician Hua, the second semifinal hasn’t started yet.”

Cai Zhenji reluctantly shoved her son into Cai Yan’s arms and drawled, ”Fine, I’ll go find Physician Hua. Honestly, sister, don’t you ever get bored being so composed all the time?”

”Alright, a bit of boredom is nothing compared to peace under the heavens. After all, Yunlu didn’t win by her own strength. Winning by tricks in such an occasion would lead to trouble.” Cai Yan patted the Yangg Fa in her arms, and then looked at Cai Zhenji and said slowly.

”Ah, this situation is really not going well!” Xun Yue at this moment couldn’t care less about maintaining his sage demeanor; he was already losing it. Liaoo Hua and Juu Fu were going to leave the stage together!

”Cough cough, what are we going to do about this?” Chen Xi coughed twice and said, having been laughing at others for messing up earlier, now it seemed they too would end up in a mess.

Liu Bei, Jia Xu, and others all glared at him, and Chen Xi felt a bit awkward at this moment.

”Glaring at me won’t help, Yuanjian and that one obviously didn’t consider the next round’s issues. It might end up being another mutual defeat. Even with superior means, if there’s no one left, who will stand against Miss Ma?” Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said irritatedly, directly pointing out the situation.

”I was watching for fun before, but I really didn’t expect to come across such an absurd situation.” Chen Xi shrugged with a helpless expression, but then looked at everyone seriously and said, ”Anyone reaching the top by competence is fine, but Ma Yunlu’s cheating is too obvious. Her taking the top ruins the fairness of the whole military course.”

In reality, by this point, Chen Xi almost burst into laughter; this group of guys all overlooked one fact. In the match between Li Tiao and Lyu Qiling, Li Tiao won, but suffered too severe injuries. But the problem is, they have Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing, these people...

[It seems, subconsciously, they still habitually ignored the medical division.] Chen Xi was a bit helpless. Indeed, everything cannot be accomplished overnight.

”I’m trying to find a way; to take down Ma Yunlu, we must disrupt the current game’s fairness.” Mann Chong said with a dark face; he hated those who challenged the rules the most.

”If we don’t disrupt this game, Ma Yunlu is definitely the champion. Yuanjian and the opponent are basically on par.” Xun Yue said depressively, ”Moreover, if we don’t act fast, even if Yuanjian wins, he may not be able to defeat Miss Ma next.”

Just then, Cai Zhenji suddenly appeared with Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing, ”Greetings, Lord Xuande, Marquis Chen, and everyone. My sister asked me to bring Physician Hua and Dr. Zhang here.”

After finishing, Cai Zhenji gave a slight bow and stepped aside, while Hua Tuo and Zhang Jii looked at everyone with a strange expression. To be honest, if Cai Zhenji hadn’t explicitly mentioned Liu Bei had a task for them, these two would still be working on epidemic prevention now.

”May I ask, Lord Xuande, what did you summon us here for?” Zhang Zhongjing clasped his hands and asked politely, an injection tube still in his arm that hadn’t been removed.

”You two came at just the right time; someone here is severely injured and will need to participate in the semifinals next. So, please treat them as soon as possible.” Liu Bei joyously said; how had they not thought of such a simple thing before?

”No problem, where’s the wounded? We can heal them quickly.” Hua Tuo nodded, indicating it was entirely manageable.

”Zhongkang, take the two divine healers to see Li Tiao.” Liu Bei patted Xuu Chu on the shoulder and said. They had a secret weapon; as long as Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing were willing to use Spirit Talent, Li Tiao, whether jumping around or lying down, could be revived.

After Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo left, everyone present clearly let out a breath of relief, except for Chen Xi, who continued to laugh heartlessly. As for Hua Tuo and the others, others might habitually overlook them, but Chen Xi wouldn’t, for they were the guarantee for a smooth competition without mishaps.

”Zichuan, you wouldn’t have thought of this early on, would you?” Liu Bei said looking depressed.

”Cai Zhaoji is truly considerate.” Chen Xi said with a look of longing, ”But really boring, if it were a bit later, there would have been a good show.”

”Before that happens, we’re definitely going to beat you up first.” Liu Bei said irritably, ”You, sometimes your intent is purely to cause trouble!”
