Chapter 108 Determination
Zhao Feng couldn't help but smile as he watched the three trained beasts eating in a trance.
The meat on the plate was the meat of the Dream Abyss Dragon Fish, the best in the world.
Even humans could hardly resist the taste of this meat, let alone trained beasts.
Moreover, this kind of meat was very beneficial to them, and the comfort was beyond the desire for food.
Call a stop?
How could such a thing be stopped just by saying it?
Zhao Feng had even seen many determined warriors defeated by the delicious Dream Abyss Dragon Fish, and even if they were stopped, they could not stop their desire to continue eating.
This last round of competition was full of bad taste, which was to deliberately see how their owners would respond when the trained beasts lost their composure, which was a kind of stress resistance test.
Zhao Feng looked at the amount of meat left on the plate and looked for the most suitable time to call a stop.
Not too early, so that the trained beasts had not yet immersed themselves in the deliciousness of the Dream Abyss Dragon Fish.
Not too late, so that the trained beasts would finish the plate action in advance.
Zhao Feng waited for a moment, then felt that the time had come, and shouted: "Stop!"
This order was not given to the three trained animals, but to remind the three contestants.
The Eighth Prince reacted the fastest and immediately whistled.
This was a signal to call the Saker Falcon back to his arm. It was a command that they had practiced the most and almost became instinctive.
But this time it was obviously going to fail.
No matter how the Eighth Prince whistled, the Saker Falcon ignored him and buried its head in eating meat.
The Eighth Prince tried a few more times, and finally had to give up. He shook his head and sat next to the Saker Falcon, stroking its wings, and curiously approached the plate.
"It's so delicious, let me have a taste too."
After he said that, he reached into the plate, picked up a piece of meat and was about to put it in his mouth.
Zhao Feng raised his hand when he saw this scene, wanting to stop the Eighth Prince, but gave up after thinking about it.
The Eighth Prince has been unconventional since he was a child, and Zhao Feng probably couldn't stop him even if he advised him.
Anyway, the meat of Mengyuan Dragonfish is delicious when eaten raw and harmless to humans, so Zhao Feng was too lazy to care about it.
But Zhao Feng allowed it, but Haidongqing didn't.
Seeing the Eighth Prince grabbing food, the bird immediately fluttered up, pecking and scratching him, forcing him to put down the piece of meat before stopping.
The Eighth Prince's face was in tatters, but he didn't care. He cursed: "You don't learn good things, but only learn bad things. You even learned to protect food!"
Haidongqing was not happy to be scolded. He opened his wings in his busy schedule, screamed at the Eighth Prince, cursed in bird language, and then buried his head in eating.
The Eighth Prince was so scared that he covered his ears and didn't dare to nag anymore.
On the other side, the eldest prince also shouted the order to stop when he got Zhao Feng's reminder.
But the black dog had long forgotten the previous threat of death.
Especially after eating a few pieces of Mengyuan Dragon Fish meat, it replenished its strength and recovered to the best, even unprecedented.
This guy could no longer hear the outside world at this time. The delicious food in his mouth almost paralyzed all his senses except taste.
Seeing the black dog ignoring his instructions, the eldest prince couldn't help but jump in the corner of his eyes, and the hand holding the reins suddenly exerted force, trying to pull the dog away from the plate.
But he pulled hard, but it didn't pull at all.
The other end of the reins was like being tied to a stone, motionless.
The black dog didn't feel the pain in his neck at all, just buried his head and ate fiercely, eating more and more fiercely.
The two competed with each other, and the eldest prince gradually pulled the black dog, but its face was buried in the plate, and it actually dragged the plate backwards.
The eldest prince was really angry, and just wanted to pull the black dog hard regardless of his life or death, but he accidentally glanced at the little black cat standing quietly beside him.
The next moment, the eldest prince loosened the reins in his hand and stopped doing useless work.
The black dog broke free from the restraints, rushed forward, and almost turned over.
But even so, its mouth was still tightly attached to the plate, eating non-stop.
The eighth prince, who had given up long ago, saw this scene and did not forget to sneer: "What are you doing? It would have been fine if you had loosened it earlier."
The eldest prince glanced over coldly, and saw a few bird feathers stuck in his messy hair, a few bloody scratches on his face, and his clothes were torn. He was in a mess and pretending to be a good-looking eighth prince. His full words turned into a long sigh.
"Old Eighth, you still have a good attitude."
The eldest prince gave him a thumbs up, stepped down without looking back, and left the imperial garden without even stopping at Concubine Zhang's pavilion.
Seeing this scene, Concubine Zhang also left without stopping for a moment.
Zhao Feng also looked at Li Xuan, and saw that the little black cat was holding half a piece of meat, staring at him, with saliva dripping from its mouth, but it just stopped chewing, and even its body was motionless as if it was hit by a spell.
At this time, Princess Ankang added a sentence after realizing it belatedly: "Well, Ah Xuan, be good."
Zhao Feng was also a little confused when he heard this command that didn't sound like a command at all.
"Just now, the cat stopped first, and then the princess gave the order, right?"
"And what kind of willpower does this cat have that it can stop eating the meat of Mengyuan Dragon Fish!"
Zhao Feng looked at Li Xuan seriously, looking him up and down.
But no matter how he looked at Li Xuan, he thought he was just an ordinary black cat.
The two cats next to him were showing off, but they were rare species.
They couldn't control themselves, so why could this cat?
Li Xuan didn't know what Zhao Feng was thinking, but tears fell from his mouth, and he couldn't help but secretly cursed him for not knowing the fun of eating.
"Why didn't you stop after I shouted stop?"
"Hurry up and let me continue eating!"
Although he didn't know what kind of meat this was, his taste buds and body would never lie to him.
This thing is much more advanced than the fierce tiger blood in terms of taste alone.
And judging from the direct feedback from the body, it seems that the energy contained in it is also far beyond the fierce tiger blood.
Being stared at by Li Xuan's earnest eyes, Zhao Feng also understood what he meant. He laughed with amusement and said:
"Eat, little guy. You won the victory for your master, and you deserve it."
Then, Zhao Feng turned around and announced loudly: "The game is over."
"The winner is Her Royal Highness Princess Thirteen!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Especially those concubines whose children were close to adulthood, the hatred on their faces almost turned into substance.
And the other princes and princesses who had never looked at Princess Ankang in the eye were staring at the girl sitting in a wheelchair on the stage, looking weak.
If eyes could kill, I'm afraid Li Xuan and Princess Ankang would have died countless times at this moment.
But with Zhao Feng and Shang Wenfu, the two former and current chief stewards of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, in the field, no one dared to act rashly, and there was no way except for impotent rage.
Because at this moment, Zhao Feng represented Emperor Yongyuan.
Since he had already called out the result of the game, it would never be possible to change it.
Moreover, the difference between victory and defeat was too great, and there was really no room for maneuver.
Since it was impossible to do anything, they could only go back and think of a solution.
The concubines and their own princes and princesses began to leave the field one after another, and no one congratulated Li Xuan and Princess Ankang on their victory.
Except for cold eyes and endless hostility.
"Humph."
Li Xuan glanced at these people coldly, lowered his head and continued to eat meat.
From the moment he decided to participate in the competition, he had expected such consequences.
But so what, Li Xuan had decided to take this step, and he would never regret it.
Since he had the ability, he would never watch Princess Ankang die.
In the past, he only hoped to spend the rest of his life happily with Princess Ankang.
But now it's different.
Li Xuan wants Princess Ankang to live!
