He himself had spent a lot of money to support his retainers, and it would be a shame for him to waste them here, so let the emperor embarrass himself.
Zhou Heng was so angry at the sight that he trembled.
The Great Zhou court is devoid of talent, and the so-called important officials are still arguing endlessly.
Wendusu stared straight at him, his attitude respectful, but it was clearly mocking!
At this moment, Eunuch Han suddenly thought of something, stepped back, walked to Yang Cheng's side, and asked in a low voice, "Yang Cheng, are you confident in dealing with this foreign monk?"
If you're confident, I'll take the plunge and recommend you for the role to His Majesty!
Yang Cheng joined the Imperial Guard because he helped Zhang Meng defeat a powerful enemy.
He then defeated Yue Zhongli, the eldest disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and was undefeated in the duel in Yi County. Even Qin An, an elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect and a disciple from outside the pass, was no match for him. He also thwarted the evil scheme of the Holy Duke Zhang Liang.
Therefore, in Eunuch Han's eyes, Yang Cheng was not only good at handling affairs, but also quite capable.
At this moment, His Majesty is filled with grief and anxiety, and the officials in the court are at a loss for what to do.
If my own guards can defeat this foreign monk, I will have made a great impression on His Majesty and rendered a great service!
Yang Cheng squinted and said, "Don't worry, sir. If I can't even handle this one Tibetan monk, I'll have no face to work in the Imperial Guard after this."
Han Jin gritted his teeth and said, "Fine! We'll trust you this once!"
As he spoke, Han Jin stepped forward and said to Zhou Heng, "Your Majesty! My subordinate, Yang Cheng, the captain of the Imperial Guard, is a man of unparalleled bravery and can defeat this foreign monk!"
Zhou Heng asked doubtfully, "The Guardian Division? Han Jin, are you serious?"
In Zhou Heng's memory, the Imperial Guard did exist to protect the imperial city and was considered the emperor's personal army, but they did mostly odd jobs.
Generally, only guards who couldn't make it in the Imperial Guard or the inner palace would choose to join the Imperial Guard Division.
Or, those who are older may go to the Omamori (御守司) to retire.
Therefore, it is very rare to see a young man like Shangguan Ling in the Imperial Guard.
Now that even the Commander of the Imperial Guards and the Captain of the Imperial Guards have been defeated, how can the Imperial Guards possibly succeed?
Han Jin, who had now placed all his bets on Yang Cheng, quickly replied upon hearing this, "Your Majesty, rest assured, there will be absolutely no problem!"
Besides, things have come to this point; if we don't fight now, wouldn't that be even more humiliating?
Zhou Heng thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Fine! Let Yang Cheng go! If he wins, I will reward him handsomely!"
Han Jin made a gesture to Yang Cheng, and Yang Cheng slowly walked to the edge of the martial arts arena stage.
The ministers and imperial guards present all looked at Yang Cheng with strange eyes.
Has this guy from the Guardian Bureau gone mad?
Having already seen Shangguan Ling and Chu Wenze beaten so badly, how dare he still go up?
Ignoring the stares of the crowd, Yang Cheng stood his Imperial Guard sword upright on a pillar in the training ground and looked at Zhamude, saying, "If you don't use a weapon, then I won't use one either, so you won't say I'm bullying you."
Zhamud smiled faintly, though he tried his best to hide it, he still couldn't conceal the sarcasm in his smile.
“You may use weapons, after all, it won’t affect the outcome.”
"Is that so? Great monk, then you'd better be prepared!"
As soon as Yang Cheng finished speaking, a loud explosion suddenly came from the ground!
The fine bluestone paving stones beneath Yang Cheng's feet shattered the moment he stomped down. Before anyone could even be shocked, Yang Cheng was already standing right in front of Zamud!
Sensing the ferocious aura before him, which resembled a raging behemoth, Zhamud's body shone with golden light, and he unleashed a palm strike towards Yang Chengyin!
As their fists and palms collided, Yang Cheng's blood essence erupted to its peak, and even wisps of white mist spread around him.
That wasn't internal energy or qi, but rather a wisp of mist caused by the surging of blood and qi that evaporated the sweat from the body!
Zhamud was sent flying as if he had been struck by a ferocious beast.
The Vajra Palm technique, which had always been invincible, was shattered by the opponent, and a sharp pain shot through his entire right arm.
Yang Cheng stepped forward, grabbed Zhamud's right arm, and pulled him back sharply before he could fly backward.
Zhamud's muscles bulged, and his left fist slammed towards Yang Cheng's head, unleashing a burst of golden sunlight.
But Yang Cheng's arm moved like a snake, coiling from his arm to his shoulder and twisting fiercely!
Zhamud let out a scream as Yang Cheng twisted his arms into a bizarre twisted shape!
Yang Cheng pressed down hard on Zhamud's shoulder and unleashed a series of knee strikes on Zhamud's head. In a short time, he delivered dozens of knee strikes, and Zhamud's head instantly resembled a gourd of blood.
The next moment, Zhamud, who had already been beaten into a daze, was picked up by Yang Cheng and thrown into the air.
Step forward, raise your elbow, and unleash your energy, as powerful as a mountain!
Bajiquan! Heart-Piercing Elbow!
Zhamud was blasted dozens of feet away, a huge dent appeared in his chest, and he rolled down to Baosheng Batu's feet.
The entire room fell silent for a moment before Zhou Heng's excited slapping could be heard.
