Chapter 687: Jing Yi’s Plot!
Translator: Lordbluefire
Upon hearing Jing Yi’s words, the scene instantly turned chaotic.
...After all, everyone was used to their own equipment. Suddenly changing to a uniform distribution would undoubtedly have some impact on them.
Just as the teams were about to argue, Jing Yi spoke up, “Do you want to cheat? Or are you afraid that once the supplies are the same, you won’t be able to beat your opponents? So you’re afraid to accept the uniform allocation?”
With that, the soldiers from the three teams immediately fell silent.
Ji Shuai was the first to be angered. “How could that be? Our Ji family army is the strongest! Brothers, change equipment!”
Although Ji Shuai’s words caused some hesitation among the Ji family soldiers, they eventually changed their equipment.
Prince Jing Yi then looked at the Luo and Yan family armies.
Luo Jian furrowed his brows. He thought for a moment, looked at the equipment, and said, “This equipment isn’t much different from what we prepared. I guess Prince Jing Yi is afraid we’ll cheat by hiding things in our clothes. Let’s change then!”
After saying that, Luo Jian stepped forward and prepared to change equipment with his soldiers.
When it was the turn of the Yan family army, Yan Zixuan, who would usually have given the order to change directly, hesitated and glanced at Shen Ruojing.
Shen Ruojing stared at the equipment with a furrowed brow.
Among the things Jing Yi brought, the clothes were the same as theirs, and the items like water bottles were also identical…
But Jing Yi still insisted on changing equipment…
Shen Ruojing frowned and suddenly spoke up, “I remember that according to the martial arts tournament rules, we can make our own preparations before the competition. Has this rule changed this year?”
Jing Yi smiled. “I changed it. In previous years, the Yan family army won first place every time because their equipment was superior. This year, for the sake of fairness, we have decided to make everything even.”
Shen Ruojing said coldly, “But this has not been communicated to us.”
Jing Yi replied, “Isn’t it still not too late to inform you? Princess, are you not changing your equipment because you’re afraid? Maybe you know that if you change the equipment, the Yan family army won’t stand a chance?”
Yan Zixuan angrily retorted, “Who are you saying won’t stand a chance?”
“Exactly! Who are you saying won’t stand a chance? We rely on our own strength, not equipment! If we have to change, we’ll change!”
As soon as Yan Zixuan’s words fell, the soldiers behind him immediately echoed in agreement.
Jing Yi laughed. “That’s better…”
Yan Zixuan took a step forward, ready to pick up the equipment prepared by Jing Yi, but he was stopped by Shen Ruojing. “Wait.”
Yan Zixuan stopped in his tracks.
Jing Yi also looked at Shen Ruojing.
Shen Ruojing calmly said, “I remember that even if a rule is changed, there is a three-month trial period, and it cannot be directly applied to a competition. Prince Jing Yi’s suggestion is good, but I’m afraid it will have to wait until next year. We won’t change.”
Yan Zixuan immediately looked at her. “Who said we won’t…”
Before he could finish, Luo Yan stepped forward with hands on her hips, staring at him.
Seeing this, Yan Zixuan was frightened into silence.
He suddenly felt quite stifled. Wasn’t he the one leading the Yan family army? But how come it seemed like the Princess had the final say now?
However…
Yan Zixuan looked at Luo Yan and thought of the first day when she arrived, wearing the issued clothes with her back rubbed raw. Women, after all, were different. These new clothes must not have been washed even once, so she would probably feel pain wearing them.
Perhaps the Princess thought the same, so she didn’t want to change either.
Yan Zixuan thought about it, glanced at Shen Ruojing, and finally took a deep breath. “Fine, fine, we won’t change then!”
As soon as he said this, Ji Shuai immediately switched to a mocking mode. “See? You admit it, don’t you? You rely on your equipment. I knew the Yan Family was the richest, after all, you have a queen dowager!”
The Yan Family had been wealthy ever since Queen Dowager Yan gained power.
After all, the royal family was the richest, and Queen Dowager Yan, having been the Queen for so many years, had given her maternal family many benefits. Even back then, the dowry given to the Yan Family by the royal family was priceless.
Thus, the Yan family army was indeed the richest among the three armies.
This was also the reason why the Luo family army and Ji family army were discontented.
Yan Zixuan was immediately furious.
He looked at Ji Shuai, wanting to say something. But as he was the one who requested not to change equipment, anything he said would lack persuasiveness.
Luo Jian looked at the two of them and then said, “Alright, the competition is about to start!”
Luo Jian took over his family’s army this year. He was a top-student type of contestant, employing the most advanced training methods. He was confident he could beat the Yan family army this year!
After Luo Jian finished speaking, seeing that Ji Shuai still wanted to say something, he immediately said, “The Yan family army chose a team of female soldiers to participate in the competition this year, giving us an advantage. Even if we give in a little, it will only even things out! Otherwise, could you brag about winning?”
Ji Shuai was also young and aggressive, and everyone was competitive. So upon hearing this, he immediately said, “Fine, consider it a favor to you.”
After that, he sneered, leading his soldiers directly toward the helicopter.
There were three military zones, each with three teams, so there was a total of ninety people. Everyone got on a helicopter.
Jing Yi, watching Yan Zixuan and the others not changing clothes, frowned, but he had no more reason to stop them. He could only watch as the group left.
A subordinate beside him immediately asked, “Prince, the Princess and the others didn’t change their equipment, what should we do?”
The equipment Jing Yi had prepared for them was, of course, subpar. Not only were the clothes drafty, but even the firearms had problems, all to cause accidents in this martial arts competition!
If Shen Ruojing died, then the position of king would be his.
However, he didn’t expect the Yan family army to be so calm, being ridiculed and yet not backing down. This was a bit unexpected. Even so, Jing Yi lowered his eyes and sneered, “It doesn’t matter. Don’t we still have a backup plan?”
At this moment, on the helicopter…
