    The next day, the third round of competition began, and the content of the competition was horse riding.  Two hundred contestants formed a formation outside the city, but after hearing the sound of cannons, they rode out into battle.  After crossing three high mountains and two river banks, we have traveled twenty miles and the place where we see a red flag is our destination.  The first twenty people to arrive are the winners.  Wen Shun, Zhong Hui and others, together with the executive officials, watched the battle on a high mountain several miles away from the finish line.

    Soon, 200 contestants formed their teams and followed the sound of the cannon.  Two hundred fast horses galloped together, causing a cloud of dust.  Wang Shuang laughed loudly and flew forward on his horse.  Guan Xing and Guan Suo also whipped their horses.  Xu Gai and Zhao Tong were not willing to lag behind and charged wildly.  As for Deng Fan, he was not in a hurry, but seemed calm and rode forward.  Everyone rushed to ride their horses to reach the first hilltop first.  Suddenly, five or six people suddenly had a sudden attack and rushed to the front.  At this moment, bursts of roaring sounds erupted, like a mountain collapsing and the earth cracking.  All five or six people were seen falling into the pit.  Wang Shuang was shocked when he saw it. He immediately slowed down his horse, surveyed the terrain, and advanced slowly.  After everyone passed the first hill, dozens of contestants fell into the pit.  At this time, no one dared to be careless and moved forward cautiously.  When we reached the second hilltop, the journey was uneventful. Dozens of contestants all started to have a fit, vying to be the first to rush into a dense forest.  After a while, there were loud sounds of falling horses.  The two brothers Guan Xing and Guan Suo looked hard and drove their horses towards them. They saw many horse tripping ropes in the dense forest. Most of the people who had just rushed in were tripped.  When the Guan brothers saw this, their expressions froze and they moved forward cautiously. After passing through the dense forest, they rushed down the hilltop.  A group of contestants passed the second hill, and dozens more people were eliminated.  ,

    Half an hour later, everyone came to a long river. The water was slow and not fast.  Because of what happened before, no one dared to cross the river easily.  At this time, Deng Fan looked at it for a while, then suddenly drove his horse to charge.  When Wang Shuang saw it, he grinned and followed immediately.  When the other contestants saw it, they all sneered.  Unexpectedly, Deng Fan and Wang Shuang rushed past, but nothing happened.  Zhao Tong was the first to react and followed suit, followed by Xu Gai and the Guan brothers.  Deng Fan took the lead and led all the contestants across the river to the third hill.  The terrain inside the mountain is steep and the mountain road is narrow.  Many contestants thought they were about to reach the finish line, and couldn't help but feel anxious. They rushed to be the first and rushed.  The Guan brothers, Xu Gai and Zhao Tong were running away. When they saw someone rushing towards them from behind, Guan Suo's face turned cold. He pulled up the reins and kicked the horse's hind hooves. The man who was chasing the nearest man immediately sat down and his horse was imprisoned.  Soma kicked, screamed, and rushed around like crazy. The competitors behind him were unprepared, and the mountain road was narrow, so many people fell down the mountain.  Deng Fan and Wang Shuang explored the road ahead, leading the way and passing the third hilltop.  Guan Xing and others caught up one after another.  This time, nearly dozens of people were eliminated again.  The remaining more than a hundred riders scrambled to catch up in the plain.  Deng Fan suddenly ran wildly, but there was another long river blocking his way.  Wang Shuang shouted loudly and was about to slap his horse and rush away, but Deng Fan shouted hurriedly.

    ¡°Wait a minute, Ziquan!!¡±

    When Wang Shuang heard this, he immediately reined in his horse.  The Guan brothers who came from behind immediately rushed over the two of them.  Deng Fan and Wang Shuang made a gesture to indicate that the river was unfathomable.  Wang Shuang understood in his heart.  The two then took a detour.  When Xu Gai saw this, his face became frozen, and he quickly called to the Guan brothers in front. Guan Xing and Guan Suo heard this and reined in their horses suddenly.  The crowds of people who dared to come after him surged up, and they slapped their horses and flew into the river. Suddenly, there were waves of exclamations.  I saw that the long river that didn't seem to be deep was actually quite hidden.  Many people and their horses were immediately submerged in the river.  When the Guan brothers saw him, they quickly reined in their horses and walked around the river bank.  Deng Fan and Wang Shuang walked around the river and ran for several miles. They saw a red flag flying not far away. They looked at each other and smiled, and then their horses galloped.  Deng Fan was the first to arrive under the red flag, followed by Wang Shuang, followed closely by the Guan brothers, Xu Gai, and Zhao Tong.  More than a dozen people followed intermittently from behind.

    Wen Shun was on a high mountain not far away and had a clear view of the whole process. He sighed and talked to Zhong Hui.

    "Deng Shize is thoughtful and considers every detail. Such a person will surely become a great person in the future."

    Zhong Hui listened and nodded in agreement.  At this point, the second stage of the martial arts training conference has ended with all three links.  The official in charge of the martial arts competition told the remaining 20 contestants to gather at the school grounds in the city in three days. The King of Tang Dynasty would come in person and award rewards in turn.  Everyone was overjoyed to hear this.

    Three days later, Tang Wang Wenhan led the ministers of the Western Tang Dynasty to the general platform at the school grounds in Chang'an City.  Twenty contestants lined up, each waiting attentively.  I saw Wen Han wearing a jade belt and brocade robes. The warriors held a big red compass gold umbrella cover, gold melons and silver axes on the left and right, stirrup sticks and spears, carrying the sun, moon, dragon and phoenix banners. The dragon and tiger guards were divided into five teams, each with three thousand, according to green and green.  The five colors of yellow, red, white and black, the flags, flags and horses, are brilliant and majestic according to their true colors.  Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Xu Huang and other generals, all of them powerful, followed closely behind and lined up on the left seat.  Civil officials such as Xi Zhicai, Xu Shu, Li You, Zhong Yao, etc., with impressive demeanor and easy smiles, are listed on the right table.  Following Wenhan's order, everyone sat down.  Great Sima Xu ShuzhiThe edict was written and a reward was given to twenty people one by one. Each of them received a pair of armor and a good horse, and they were all ranked in the position of Yamen General.  Everyone knelt down to thank him.  Wen Han wore a majestic smile, walked in front of the stage, and spoke to the twenty people in the audience.

    "Practicing martial arts can protect our family and strengthen our country. You are all our young talents in the Western Tang Dynasty. They are the foundation of the Western Tang Dynasty. The prosperity of the Western Tang Dynasty in the coming decades will all be on your shoulders. When I set up the martial arts training hall, my original intention was to accept poor people from all over the world.  Choose those who have both ability and political integrity to join the army. The army of the Guxi Tang Dynasty will become famous throughout the world. Now that the war in Xichuan is imminent, I hope you can do something good."

    After hearing the words, everyone bowed in unison.

    "We will live up to the high expectations of King Tang!"

    "OK!"

    Wen Han smiled brilliantly and looked at Xu Shu.  Xu Shu understood and immediately announced the content of the third stage and fought for it. He ordered twenty people to wear red and black jerseys and divide them into two teams.  Everyone obeyed the order, so they each put on their jerseys and divided into two teams.  After a while, the executive officer first read out the name of one person from the red team, and the name of Zhao Tong from the black team.  When Zhao Tong heard this, his brilliant sword eyes unconsciously turned towards Zhao Yun who was sitting on the stage.  Zhao Yun held his beard and showed an encouraging smile on his face.  Zhao Tong's face was shocked, and his whole body seemed to have endless strength.  The two men rode out after the order, each with eighteen weapons in front of the formation. Zhao Tong took a long spear, while the warrior from the red team on the opposite side took a broadsword.  With the sound of drums, Zhao Tong's flying horse rushed out. The warriors of the Red Army shouted loudly and took the lead. They patted their horses and rushed in front of Zhao Tong. They slashed at Zhao Tong's head with a knife.  Zhao Tong looked slightly flustered and moved out of the way.  When the warrior of the Red Army saw that Zhao Tong was young, he looked down upon him and slashed at him with his sword.  Zhao Tong's face hardened, and he resisted with his gun. After more than ten rounds of fighting, Zhao Tong gradually stabilized his position. Seeing an opening, a gun suddenly hit the red soldier's throat and stopped suddenly.  When the executive officer saw it, he quickly ordered the soldiers to beat the gong.  A gong sounded and Zhao Tong won.  All the officials on the stage clapped their hands and praised him when they saw it. Zhao Yun was very happy to see his son winning.  Then, as the executive officer read out, Guan Xing from the red team rushed out on horseback and took out a big knife. A huge man from the black team roared, galloped out and took out a mace.  After the two men finished performing the ceremony, a gong sounded and the two horses charged towards each other.  Guan Xing's eyes were cold as he rushed in front of the giant man and struck the head with his sword.  Seeing Guan Xing's fierce momentum, the giant man quickly picked up his mace to block it.  Guan Xing slashed with his sword, and the blade cut the mace away, and then slashed it towards the giant man's face. He was about to chop his head in half when he suddenly stopped.  Guan Xing defeated his opponent together, and the officials on the stage were amazed.  Guan Yu held his beautiful beard, but he didn't smile at all. It seemed that Guan Xing had not achieved what he wanted in his heart.  Guan Xing slowly sheathed his sword, then turned his horse and retreated into the formation.  Just as everyone was amazed at Guan Xing's military bravery, Xu Gai in red robe and Guan Suo in black robe rushed out from the front of the formation on Pegasus.  Xu Gai was seen holding a big axe, but Guan Suo was holding a spear.  Guan Suo has a temperamental temperament, and his father Guan Yu's swordsmanship is too domineering, but it is not suitable for him.  Later, Guan Suo became a disciple of Zhao Yun and learned some of Zhao Yun's true teachings.  Both of them raised their hands in salute. After the ceremony, a gong sounded.  The two men clapped their horses and rushed forward. Xu Gai rushed to him first, shouted loudly, and struck Guan Suo across the chest with his axe.  Guan Suo shook his head and blocked it with one shot.  There was a loud bang, and Xu Gai was even more powerful. He opened Guan Suo's gun and rushed forward with his giant ax. Guan Suo dodged and just avoided it, then he picked up his spear and stabbed out suddenly.  I saw that Guan Suo's spear was so fast, like an offensive like a raging wave, that Xu Gai was unable to fight back and could only dodge.

    After Guan Suo stabbed more than a dozen shots in a row, the power of the spear gradually became slower.  When Xu Gai saw it, his eyes flashed with two flashes of light, he suddenly struck out with an axe, turned on the gun that was coming from Guansuo, and suddenly his horse galloped over and struck Guansuo in the face with an axe.  Unexpectedly, Guan Suo had been prepared. He reined in his horse to avoid it, and Xu Gai chopped it open with an axe.  When the two horses passed each other, Guan Suo swung his gun and swiped Xu Gai's vest.  Xu Gai ducked and his gun was swept away.  Xu Gaixiang pretended to be defeated, reined in his horse and ran away.  Guan Suo turned his horse and caught up from behind.  At this moment, Xu Gai suddenly raised his ax and was about to hit Guansuo.  All the officials on the stage felt their hearts in their throats.  In the midst of lightning and flint, Guan Suo stabbed out with a sudden thrust, blocking the giant ax in Xu Gai's hand.  It turns out that the attentive Guan Suo had already noticed what Xu Gai was thinking.  The two weapons suddenly collided, and a loud noise broke out.  The two men fought closely, the shadows of guns and axes flew by, and they were fighting inextricably.  After dozens of rounds, both of them were exhausted.  The younger Guan Suo was unable to hold on his strength at first, and was knocked off his horse by Xu Gai with the back of an axe.  Guan Suo rolled to the ground.  The gong sounded immediately, and the victory was decided.

    Seeing that Xu Gai had defeated Guan Suo, Xu Huang's face seemed to be blooming with a smile.  Guan Yu narrowed his eyes.  When the officials saw it, they didn't dare to cheer.  Soon, the executive officer announced the personnel for the next battle.  Wang Shuang, who was wearing a red robe, rushed out on horseback and took out a big sword. At the same time, a big man in black robe took out a sledgehammer and followed him out of the battle.  The two men looked at each other and did not reply. They immediately killed each other.  When Wen Han heard that it was Wang Shuang, his eyes narrowed and he looked with a bit of strangeness.  I saw Wang Shuang rushing out on Pegasus and shoutingThe sound is like thunder, deafening.  Before the big man could take action, he was startled by the roar.  In a moment, Wang Shuang rushed closer, raised his sword, and slashed three times in a row.  The first knife struck the big man's face.  The big man dodged quickly.  In an instant, the second sword was withdrawn and came back, slashing diagonally towards the giant man's right shoulder.  The giant man roared violently and held up his giant hammer to block it.  There was a loud "boom" sound, and Wang's double-sword strike was fierce, instantly opening the giant hammer in the giant man's hand.  Wang Shuang wielded his sword and stabbed the giant man in the heart.  The giant man couldn't stop him, and Wang Shuang's broadsword suddenly stopped at the center of his heart.  The giant man was so frightened that his face was ashen.  Wang Shuang laughed and admitted.

    ???????????????????????????? It was too late, but then it was fast, the officials on the general stage had just heard the sound of the gong, and many of them had not come back to their senses when they saw that Wang Shuang had won the victory.  The generals on the stage saw Wang Shuang's bravery and secretly praised him.  After a while, Deng Fan, who was wearing a black robe, and a muscular man named Yang Wu came out of the battle.  Deng Fan took a gun, while Yang Wu took a pair of iron whips.  The two of them finished the ceremony.  The gong sounded.  The two men suddenly flew up. Yang Wu was very fast. He wanted to strike first and rushed to Deng Fan. His iron whip suddenly danced and struck continuously.  Deng Fan focused his attention to block it, and started fighting fiercely with Yang Wu.  Seeing Yang Wu's prowess, all the officials on the stage thought that Yang Wu was likely to win.  When King Wenhan of the Tang Dynasty saw that Yang Wu was good at martial arts, he asked the bureaucrat in charge of the martial arts training conference next to him.
