Chapter 75: The Competition 3 Part Two

Then, he looked up and said earnestly, “I only admitted to my identity because there is no chance for me to gather any intelligence. Since I got discovered, it is better to admit to it rather than lying. As to why I’m not telling you who sent me… You aren’t qualified to hear that.”

This response was arrogant, but the soldier who was leading the way didn’t get angry. He laughed and said, “We are all soldiers that came out of Right Reverent Guard, and we are only serving different generals at the moment. Even though you failed, we will only lock you up for now and let you go after this competition is over.”

Right Reverent Guard. Fang Jie remembered this keyword, and he quickly recalled the information that he learned about the Imperial Six Guards.

“What happened to your arm?” that soldier asked.

Fang Jie replied seriously after a moment of silence, “I sneaked out of our encampment after I got the order, but some soldiers thought that I was defecting. Therefore, I was in a hurry and fell off the wall when I scaled it, breaking my arm. Then, I grabbed a tree branch and quickly did this.”

“You are unlucky and dumb!” that soldier sighed.



Although the three young masters who were competing today didn’t have official positions, it wasn’t wrong for the soldiers to call them generals. Regardless of who obtains the first seat, all of them would at least be given rank 5 positions in the military.

As soon as Fang Jie saw Luo Wen who others called Junior General Luo, he felt like this man didn’t know how to laugh and didn’t find anything funny.

Coldness; ice-like coldness.

Luo Wen who was in a set of black uniform but wasn’t wearing armor glanced at Fang Jie coldly. This glance could also be considered arrogant. The glance alone told others that he was in a different world.

This young man had a medium build, and he was about 1.75 meters tall. His physique was great with a wide back, a slender waist, and long legs.

Fang Jie had to admit that this young man was handsome. His big eyes were bright, his brows were defined, and his tall nose looked unique. His beard was shaved, making him look clean.

He only took one glance at Fang Jie, and he then focused on the map on the table. It was the map of the terrain around the small city, and everything was clearly marked out.

Right now, Luo Wen was holding a pencil made of charcoal, and many lines were drawn on the map.

Although Fang Jie was standing a bit far, he could tell that every line on the map represented the negation of one sieging path that he designed prior.

“Lock him up and let him go back after this is done.” Luo Wen gave the order; he didn’t take another look at Fang Jie.

The soldiers by the gate quickly walked over and were about to tie up Fang Jie.

“No need to tie him.” Luo Wen waved his hand, telling the soldiers to take Fang Jie away.

“Aren’t you going to ask me who sent me?” Fang Jie asked.

Luo Wen didn’t reply; his attention was still focused on the map.

“Even if you don’t want to know who sent me, aren’t you interested in knowing how others are planning to siege?” Fang Jie asked again.

Luo Wen still didn’t raise his head, and he said calmly, “It would be strange if a little soldier like you know the siege plan of your general. Go; I won’t make your life hard. After all, you are a soldier of Right Reverent Guard. Great General Xu Xiaogong didn’t give us many soldiers. By locking you up, one of my opponents will have one less soldier, even though this wouldn’t change the situation that much.”

“There will be changes!” Fang Jie took a deep breath and said, “By keeping me here, you have gained a soldier, a very useful soldier.

Luo Wen couldn’t help but look at Fang Jie for the second time.

“Take him away.” Luo Wen shook his head and said, “I know that you want to demonstrate yourself. Perhaps you asked to come here as a spy, and you are acting this way since you were discovered and couldn’t demonstrate yourself in your own encampment.”

Luo Wen’s tone didn’t contain any mockery, but it would hurt much more.

Just as the soldiers were about to take Fang Jie away, he smiled in contempt and asked a strange question, “General, you are waiting for the nightfall?”

Hearing this, Luo Wen who was drawing on the map froze for a second, and he looked at Fang Jie for the third time. However, the expression on his face changed this time.

“What is your name?” he asked.
