Chapter 363 Since I can’t bring it myself, I can only rob it
Tuoba Ruoli felt a burning sensation on her face.
Especially the looks from the people around her made her feel uncomfortable all over.
While Tuoba was getting rid of the embarrassment and discomfort, he felt more angry in his heart.
This damn old man, why should he be treated differently?
Are Yu Youning’s things so good?
As I was thinking this, I heard the old man's voice.
"You don't have to be angry. I'm already so old, it's my freedom to like any younger person, right?"
Tuoba Ruoli was shocked, "You misunderstood, I didn't..."
"Whether you have it or not, I can see it clearly, and you know it clearly in your heart as well. There's no need to explain so much."
Tuoba Ruoli forced herself to hold back the words she hadn't finished saying, and she lowered her head without saying another word.
Seeing this, the old man showed a somewhat satisfied expression.
"It's getting late, so there's no need to waste time talking nonsense. Let the competition begin now!"
"This Three Kingdoms Competition is different from the previous ones. You should all know this."
"However, in addition to what you already know, the winner of this year's Three Kingdoms Competition will also receive a hidden reward."
Yu Youning was originally eating dried fruit seriously, but after hearing this, he suddenly became more interested and his eyes showed a little more curiosity. "What is it?"
The old man chuckled, "I've already said it's hidden, so it must be kept secret. I can't tell you in advance. The only thing I can say is that you'd better try your best to compete and strive to get first place. That's all I have to say. The rest depends on your own luck."
It's even worse than not saying this.
It aroused everyone's curiosity, but did not reveal any useful information.
Yu Youning remained silent and stuffed another piece of dried fruit into his mouth.
Tuoba Ruoli watched this scene, his eyes filled with jealousy.
What’s so good about Yu Youning!
Why is it that even the person in charge of the Three Kingdoms Competition is partial to Yu Youning!
However, no matter what good Yu Youning has, he will die here in this competition!
Tuoba Ruoli clenched his hands quietly, with a look of determination in his eyes.
At this time, they were not in Wucheng City, but fifty miles outside Wucheng City.
Looking out from here, you can see endless grassland.
It is already May, a good time for grass to grow and birds to sing.
The grass is full of life, and the mountains are covered with wild grasses and flowers.
Herds of cattle, sheep, and horses are everywhere in the mountains, either playing together or grazing leisurely.
Since arriving here, Yu Youning has been observing the surrounding environment.
Apart from the nice scenery, I didn't notice any difference.
Could it be that there is an underground palace under this grassland?
If not, where will they compete? And what will they compete on?
There are many people who have the same doubts as Yu Youning.
However, due to various reasons, although everyone was curious, no one actually asked.
The old man's gaze fell on everyone's faces from time to time, and he saw everyone's reactions.
"I guess you're all curious about the content and venue of this competition. In fact, the venue is right in front of you, but you've ignored it until now."
Hearing this, Yu Youning subconsciously looked around.
Could it be that this endless grassland is their competition venue?
What about the content?
It can't be a horse racing race, right?
Yu Youning thought it was impossible.
This is indeed not the case.
The old man didn't continue to be mysterious. He smiled and said, "This time, there will be only one competition. Three countries, each with seven people, will set out from here at the same time. Whoever reaches the other side of the Tianduan Prairie first will be the winner."
To the other side?
Yu Youning had no idea about the Tianduan Prairie, and didn't understand what it meant to reach the other end first.
Just as I was wondering, I heard Wen Xiangli explaining softly.
"This grassland is called Tianduan Prairie. It's called that because if you walk eastward for dozens of miles, you'll reach the edge of a cliff. The cliff is so deep that no one has ever been there, and no one knows what lies below.
"The cliff is unknown how deep it is, but it is hundreds of feet wide. Even someone with excellent Qinggong skills cannot fly over it. It is simply impossible to reach the other side by human power."
After hearing Wen Xiangli's explanation, Huo Qingchen's eyes changed when he looked at him.
"Wen Xiangli, have you engraved all the books into your head? How do you know everything?"
Wen Xiangli shook his head. "I don't know everything, I just know more than you do!"
Huo Qingchen, "..."
Huo Qingchen turned his head away, not wanting to talk to Wen Xiangli anymore.
Yu Youning heard the conversation between the two, but didn't take it to heart.
At this time, Yu Youning was thinking about another thing.
Although she didn't say anything, her big eyes were rolling around, and she was obviously thinking about something interesting.
Not only Yu Youning, but Tuoba Ruoli also had a similar expression on his face.
Obviously, at this moment, they were thinking exactly the same thing.
The old man also looked at the two of them at this time, "I know what you two are thinking.
You have a divine beast by your side, and you want to sit on it and fly over directly, right?"
Having his thoughts exposed, Yu Youning didn't feel embarrassed. Instead, he asked directly, "Is it not possible?"
The old man shook his head. "Of course not. If it were possible, you wouldn't even have to come here. Wouldn't it be better to just let the two beasts compete to see who can fly faster?"
When asked this question, Yu Youning smiled.
She was just thinking about it and didn't really want to do it.
The old man smiled with wrinkles all over his face, "Tengshe and Qiongqi, these two little guys, can't join you in the competition this time, so just stay with me for the time being!"
He said this while stretching out his hands.
As he stretched out his hand, Qiongqi flew towards the old man quickly, and his body kept getting smaller.
The Teng Snake that was originally coiled on Yu Youning's wrist also grew larger at this moment, flew towards the old man, and finally landed steadily in the old man's hand.
The two powerful and ferocious beasts fell into the old man's hands. From beginning to end, they were unable to put up any resistance.
Yu Youning was originally a little worried about Tengshe's safety.
However, after feeling it carefully, I confirmed that Teng Snake was not in danger and seemed quite happy, so I felt relieved.
As long as Teng Snake is safe!
As for Tengshe not being able to help her, that’s not a big deal.
Even without Teng Snake, the seven of them would definitely be able to find a way to cross the cliff and get to the other side.
As I was thinking about it, I heard the old man speak slowly again.
"Although there's everything on the grassland, whether you can get food and drink depends on your own ability. If you can't find it, just bring more.
Everyone can only walk, no mounts are allowed. Don't even think about bringing extra water and food for the horses to carry.
The most important thing is that the grassland is very dangerous. You must be careful at all times!
Okay, I've said everything I need to say. I'll give you a quarter of an hour to prepare. After a quarter of an hour, we'll set off!"
No one dared to express any dissatisfaction with the old man's words.
The two ferocious beasts were played around by the old man. These people were not crazy, so how could they have the courage to provoke the old man?
After hearing what the old man said, no one hesitated and immediately started packing their bags.
Fortunately, they had brought enough supplies when they rushed here, and now there are many types to choose from.
While Yu Youning was packing up her things, she couldn't help but look in the direction of Tengshe.
Teng Snake can not only fly, but also hold a lot of things in its stomach.
If we could bring Teng Snake with us, even if we couldn't bear the pain of carrying them over the cliff, it could still help carry a lot of supplies!
Thinking of this, Yu Youning let out a long sigh.
She also knew that this was impossible!
Finding food and drink on this grassland and being self-sufficient was originally part of the test and competition.
Driving away all the messy thoughts in his mind, Yu Youning continued to pack his things.
What she brought more of was food.
She also went to the old man to get her weapon, the big machete, and took it back from the Teng Snake's mouth.
Since the old man said that it would be very dangerous on the grassland, we must bring weapons with us!
With a machete and a bundle on his back, Yu Youning could hardly be seen anymore. All that could be seen was a knife and a pile of packages moving around.
From a distance, it looks a bit scary and a bit funny.
Yu Youning doesn't care what others think.
She has a big appetite!
What if I don’t bring more?
Besides, Chu Huaixu and Wen Xiangli really don’t have much strength, and the things they can carry are very limited.
Although Zhai Heming and Xiao Muyu are a little better than the two of them, they are only a little better.
Huo Yun'an is very strong, but he has to carry a lot of tools, all of which are Xiao Muyu's tools. That is to be prepared for any eventuality, so he must bring them all with him.
As a result, the only ones who could carry the food were Yu Youning and Huo Qingchen.
Yu Youning and Huo Qingchen looked at each other's carryings and burst into laughter.
These things may seem like a heavy burden to others, but to the two of them, they actually don't weigh much.
If it weren't so difficult to walk and the time to pack wasn't so limited, they would even want to bring more!
They cleaned up pretty quickly, and Wei Zhao wasn't slow either.
The only people who are really slow are those from Xiliang.
Before this, Tuoba Ruoli placed all his focus on Qiongqi.
But when the time came, Qiongqi couldn't join her in the competition, and she was completely dumbfounded.
The other people who took part in the competition, although they all had their own abilities, all came from extraordinary backgrounds. They were unwilling to carry heavy bags, and they did not have the ability to do so.
A quarter of an hour was too short, and in the end, everyone only carried a bag, and then looked at Yu Youning and others with gloomy eyes.
Since I can’t bring it myself, I can only steal it!
