Chapter 613 The Heroine Hammer General
He wore a brocade robe embroidered with white cloud patterns, the robe shimmering and sparkling with his movements. His hair was gently tied up with a jade hairpin inlaid with gemstones, revealing his well-defined and handsome face.
Su Ye's gaze did not linger too long on Jia Fu, Zhao Gongming, Xia Gengshi, Shebishi, and the others. Although they were all highly skilled in martial arts, it was nothing out of the ordinary for him.
Instead, his gaze pierced through the crowd and landed on Fan Lihua and the giant wielding the Yu King's Divine Spear—a group of experts who were not under his command but had been drawn here by the martial arts tournament. A meaningful smile appeared on his lips.
Gently holding the warm jade cup in his hand, he pondered silently in his heart.
His sudden whim to hold a martial arts tournament was not just to give these newcomers a suitable position.
They also saw this martial arts tournament as an excellent opportunity to recruit talent and strengthen their own power.
Fan Lihua and the giant wielding Yu the Great's spear were undoubtedly the "unexpected gains" he valued most.
At this moment, sitting beside Su Ye was a woman of unparalleled beauty, with a heroic air about her.
It was Zhuque, who had been accompanying Su Ye on his campaigns for a long time.
Unlike her usual heroic demeanor on the battlefield, Suzaku today wears a fiery red dress.
Her skirt trailed gently on the ground, swaying softly in the breeze, like a blooming red lotus, making her already stunning beauty even more breathtaking.
On the red dress, the phoenix pattern embroidered with gold thread is so lifelike that it seems ready to take flight at any moment.
Zhuque's hair was carefully styled into a flowing cloud pattern, with a few strands gently falling beside her cheeks, adding to her tenderness and gentleness.
Her phoenix eyes were bright as stars, sparkling with anticipation for the arena below. Especially when Fan Lihua's heroic figure came into view, a hint of admiration flashed in Zhuque's eyes.
"What, are you interested in her?"
Su Ye sensed the direction of Zhuque's gaze. He turned his head slightly, looked at Zhuque with an almost doting and gentle gaze, and asked softly.
"Hmm, she's not bad."
Zhuque leaned her soft, delicate body slightly against Su Ye and nodded gently.
Throughout history, female warriors have been extremely rare, let alone outstanding women like Fan Lihua.
Therefore, Zhuque, who was also a female war goddess, naturally became interested in Fan Lihua below.
Upon seeing this, Su Ye smiled.
"The world is full of outstanding talents, and it is a great honor to see such a remarkable woman at this conference."
Su Ye said softly, feeling particularly good about the unexpected events at the conference.
After all, getting something for free is always fun.
Upon hearing this, Zhuque felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
Gently nestled beside Su Ye, Fan Lihua turned her gaze back to the arena below, secretly anticipating her next move.
"A true hero!"
Meanwhile, Jia Fu and the others who had already left the arena below turned their solemn gazes toward the giant who was slowly walking off the stage.
On the other side, Xue Gang, who had just easily emerged victorious, and his brother Xue Kui, carrying a pair of heavy, golden hammers, stood side by side, watching the giant's back as he slowly walked into the crowd.
"This person possesses astonishing strength; he is likely no ordinary individual."
"This martial arts tournament hosted by the Duke is truly full of hidden talents!"
Xue Gang's brows relaxed, and he sighed slightly.
Xue Kui nodded. The online novel, "I Summon Famous Generals of All History in Another World," by author Mu Jin Bai Yi, is available here. However, her gaze was quickly drawn to a young general in white robes and helmet beside her, also wielding a silver hammer, and a strange sense of familiarity welled up within her.
"Hmm? This guy's a Hammer General too? That's rare, we're quite destined to meet!"
Xue Kui broke the silence with a hearty laugh, his voice deep and resonant, conveying a sense of frankness and enthusiasm.
"Uh, that's right. My name is Bai Wenbao. I'd like to greet you both."
The young general in white robes was slightly taken aback, then returned the greeting.
This person was Bai Wenbao, who had previously been placed under Su Ye's command. He was originally supposed to be by Pei Yuanqing's side when he heard about the martial arts tournament that his lord planned to hold.
Having been by Han Xin and Pei Yuanqing's side and possessing inside information, he naturally knew that this martial arts tournament was an excellent opportunity for advancement.
Achieving a good ranking can lead to a rapid promotion.
The speed was far beyond what he could achieve while suffering alongside the army in Dayong.
Therefore, upon hearing this news, he naturally rushed to Hengzhou with Pei Yuanqing's support.
"My name is Xue Kui, and this is my older brother, Xue Gang."
Xue Kui laughed and patted the golden hammer in his hand.
"Greetings to both of you. Brother Xue, these golden hammers look quite heavy, you must be a person of extraordinary martial arts skills."
Upon hearing this, Bai Wenbao smiled slightly and said softly.
Xue Gang observed quietly from the side and saw that although Bai Wenbao was young, his words and actions revealed a composure and confidence beyond his years, and he couldn't help but nod in approval.
"Brother Bai, your equipment and your aura are quite something."
"I wonder who your teacher was, and where you came from to Hengzhou?"
He patted Xue Kui's shoulder lightly, signaling him not to be too flamboyant, and then joined the conversation himself.
Bai Wenbao smiled slightly and briefly introduced his background and why he was participating in this martial arts tournament.
When he mentioned Pei Yuanqing and Han Xin, his tone was full of respect and pride.
Clearly, serving under these two renowned generals was a great honor for him.
Upon hearing this, a hint of admiration flashed in Xue Kui's eyes. He was naturally forthright and generous, and since he and Bai Wenbao were both hammer generals, the two quickly found common ground.
They talked about the exquisite hammer techniques and Bai Wenbao's heroic deeds with Pei Yuanqing on the battlefield of Dayong, as if they were old friends who had not seen each other for many years.
Seeing this, Xue Gang felt secretly gratified.
In these chaotic times, it is truly rare to meet like-minded friends.
Therefore, he quickly joined the discussion, and the three of them formed a circle, sometimes laughing loudly, sometimes whispering to each other.
A sudden, unspoken understanding quietly grew between them.
"Yu the Great's Divine Spear? I wonder if it belongs to You Liang or Zhuge Kunlong?"
Su Ye, standing on the high platform, watched the giant below slowly return to the Glazed Pavilion and pondered to himself.
You Liang and You Feilong are characters from the storytelling novel "Romance of the Eastern Han Dynasty," and they were the chief vanguard officers of the eight kingdoms of Western Xia.
Because You Liang was 17.5 feet tall and was nicknamed "The Tall Man," he wielded the Yu the Great's Mountain-Opening Divine Spear.
In storytelling, there is a tale of the Eight Hammers, namely the Four Invincible Hammer General Gongsun Yang, the Silver Hammer General Ma Kui, the Bronze Hammer General Li Jinlong, and the Iron Hammer General Feng Qianlang, who together fought against the tall man You Liang.
Yu Liang, wielding the Yu King's Divine Spear, single-handedly fought against four fierce warriors and eight great hammers, displaying unparalleled bravery.
Later on, a tall, white-haired man named Zhuge Kunlong appeared. He was 18.5 feet tall and also used the Yu King's Divine Spear.
This is because the Yu King's Divine Spear had four parts: finger, palm, fist, and horizontal. You Liang and his master stole the horizontal part of the spear, so Zhuge Kunlong's master ordered him to use the palm part of the spear to go down the mountain and fight You Liang.
However, due to various reasons, the two tall men, one black and one white, did not end up fighting later on.
