Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this.
Why is the eldest prince dissatisfied with this outcome?
"Does it really have to be a winner and a loser? The result is already quite fair. Are we going to nitpick over every detail? Do we have to be extremely precise?"
"I don't quite understand why the eldest prince is thinking this way. It's a competition, and the original intention of this competition wasn't necessarily to win anything."
He Zhuo walked up to Ye Ling and said.
"Your Majesty, I lost the first match."
"Hmm?" Ye Ling asked, "Why do you think that?"
"You two clearly reached the finish line together just now."
He Zhuo nodded and said.
"Judging from the final result, we did reach the finish line together, but during the race, if it weren't for Ye Mu's whip, I probably would have trampled a little rabbit to death."
“Then, naturally, Ye Mu is a cut above me!”
"Therefore, Ye Mu is the champion in this competition, and I lost."
After hearing He Zhuo's words, everyone started discussing it.
"Yes, the eldest prince is right."
"If Ye Mu hadn't acted quickly, that little rabbit would probably have died."
"So, all things considered, Ye Mu is actually more powerful."
"Then there's no problem with what He Zhuo says."
Ye Ling listened.
No statement was made.
Instead, they asked Ao Zhuo.
What do you think?
Ao Zhuo said with a smile.
“I think He Zhuo is right. If we calculate it this way, the Second Prince is indeed more powerful. We have lost this match.”
Ye Ling nodded.
"Since you've put it that way, then let's decide based on this result!"
"I hereby declare that Ye Mu has won the first match."
There was no trace of jealousy on He Zhuo's face.
He was truly convinced.
The second competition was archery.
It was a competition between Lan Zhuo and Ye Chen.
Before going on stage.
Lan Zhuo said to Ye Chen.
"Your Highness, please don't think I'm weak just because I'm a woman."
Ye Chen smiled.
"I've heard that Lan Zhuo is no less skilled in horseback riding and archery than any man."
"Naturally, I dare not underestimate them."
Lan Zhuo nodded.
"That's good!"
This is an archery competition.
It's not as simple as just shooting the rake.
To showcase the archery skills of the two individuals.
They even made some work on the rake.
The first match.
It is a fixed rake.
The contestants have to shoot arrows at the rake.
The person who hits the bullseye is the winner.
Lan Zhuo and Ye Chen both fired their first arrows.
This was child's play for the two of them.
Both of their arrows hit the bullseye.
"Lan Zhuo, right in the bullseye!"
"Third Prince, the bullseye!"
Everyone applauded.
"It seems today's competition is going to be quite a spectacle. Both the princes of our Great Yuan Kingdom and the grassland princes are very formidable!"
"Yes, it's fair to say they're evenly matched!"
"The more intense the competition, the more you want to keep watching!"
"After this round of the competition, who knows what archery challenge will follow!"
"Anyway, the game rules are definitely more enjoyable to watch than the one where you hit the bullseye!"
Then came the second game.
Ye Ling said to Ao Zhuo.
"Because we knew from the beginning that both children were very capable."
"So, I ordered someone to rig the rest of the competition!"
"Oh?" Ao Zhuo asked curiously.
"Could it be that His Majesty has set the obstacles even higher, making them even more unexpected?"
Ye Ling nodded.
"Of course, you'll see after you see it."
"Alright, then I'm really curious to know what kind of obstacles His Majesty has set up."
Then the second game began.
When the rake was taken out, everyone was stunned.
The tactics used in this match are completely different from those in the last match, or rather, they are somewhat similar.
In the first round, there was only one red heart, and it was right in the middle!
The rake in the second game had three hearts.
Moreover, the red hearts are all distributed on the outermost ring.
At the same time, the number of hearts is much smaller than in the first game.
The red heart in the first game was about the size of an orange.
But the hearts in the second round were only the size of quail eggs.
It can be said that the target is very small.
Hitting the bullseye isn't an easy task.
The crowd started talking again.
"This rake is way too small! And it's on the very outside!"
"The red heart and the outermost ring are perfectly aligned!"
"If it deviates even slightly, it will miss the target!"
"Therefore, this stage also tests the participants' archery skills!"
"I've seen the Third Prince practice archery diligently every day before; his fingers are covered in calluses!"
"I wonder how challenging this competition will be for the Third Prince?!"
"If someone as hardworking as the Third Prince fails in this challenge, it really wouldn't make sense!"
Lan Zhuo saw the target.
He laughed.
"I thought it would be something really difficult! It's nothing special!"
Ye Chen asked with a smile.
"What? Lan Zhuo, did you often practice like this when you were on the grasslands?"
