"How dare you put the blame on me? If not for you trash, how could you have lost? I'll eliminate you this time! Get lost, get lost! "

Liu Ying Xue did not even think about it, and directly scolded Jiang Ting Yu, eliminating him.

The team brought by Master was unlucky to have a teacher, I wonder if Master would be implicated because of this?

After all, the second round was a one-on-one match. The victor would be able to hang a badge under their own country's totem. The losers would be eliminated. Only three or four people would be promoted to the third round of the finals.

Just then, when the results of the preliminary competition was out, Bai Hua stood up and announced to the crowd.

"Next is the middle match. The semifinals will begin in six hours!"

"Oh!"

The disheartened audience immediately dispersed, leaving behind only the royal family and nobles as they elegantly walked down the stage. Among them were Nan Gong Ling Yun and Su Xia Yue.

Only, Nan Gong Ling Yun's hand was tightly grabbing onto Su Xia Yue's hand. Su Xia Yue looked as if he wanted to struggle yet was unable to.

When many people saw this scene, another round of gossip broke out.

Su Xia Yue could not take it anymore as he turned and stared at Nan Gong Ling Yun: "Although I lost the bet with you, but the bet didn't say that you had to hold hands, right?"

Nan Gong Ling Yun retorted as if it was a matter of course, "What kind of tryst is a tryst if you don't hold hands?"

"…"

Su Xia Yue opened his mouth, but could not find any words to refute him, so he simply ignored him. He led the way.

After walking for a while, he realized that Nan Gong Ling Yun had stopped walking and raised his head as well. When they raised their heads, they discovered that they had arrived at a clothing shop in a small town at the foot of the mountain of White Grass Hall.

This clothing shop was the largest in the radius of a few miles. The clothes sold inside not only had a novel style and high quality materials, but also had the biggest characteristic, which was their high price!

In the past, even an ordinary summer dress would sell for 10 taels of silver, which was equivalent to the cost an ordinary commoner had for a month. If it was a suit that was slightly designed and decorated, the price would have skyrocketed by ten times. Usually, other than the people from the imperial government, no ordinary person would come here to purchase clothes.

"What did you bring me back here for?" Su Xia Yue frowned.

"What else can I do? "Hurry and change out of your clothes." Nan Gong Ling Yun ordered tyrannically.

"I already told you that my clothes are not dirty."

No matter how Su Xia Yue explained, Nan Gong Ling Yun still pulled her into the clothing shop without any explanation.

"Creak!"

When the two shop assistants saw that a customer had arrived, they were first a little surprised. When she saw that Nan Gong Ling Yun was dressed like a rich man or a noble, she enthusiastically went forward to greet him.

"Esteemed guests, may I know who it is that wants to make clothes?"

"Give her a few dozen suitable dresses, now." Nan Gong Ling Yun said heroically.

Dozens of fine dresses?

This could cost him a ton of money! Big deal!

The two waiters immediately turned around to look at the Lady Boss behind the counter. The Lady Boss was a middle-aged woman who was half old and half old. All the while, he was always rubbing his fingernails in the back of his head.

Hearing Nan Gong Ling Yun's words, she then raised her head and looked at them. He then walked over with a smile.

"Looks like this young master's identity is extraordinary. Come with me to the upper floor to pick one!"

"I'm not going," Su Xia Yue shook his head.

However, Nan Gong Ling Yun did not give her an explanation, and pulled her forcefully to the second floor.

There were a lot of dresses on the second floor. Each one was open and supported by a good shelf. It looked just like the model display Su Xia Yue had seen in her world before she was reborn.

It had to be said that these dresses were indeed exquisite and beautiful, possessing all sorts of styles.

After a while, she took a fancy to a moon-white dress with dark flowers and dark brocades. Fresh and without loss of beauty, dignified and not rigid, beautiful just right.

Su Xia Yue pointed to the dress and asked the Lady Boss, "How much silver does this dress cost?"

The Lady Boss followed Su Xia Yue's finger to look at the dress she was pointing at, and immediately revealed a surprised look.

"Oh, girl, you have good eyes! This dress was not an ordinary one. Just the design on top of it had taken the twelve masters seven to four days to finish embroidering it! "And the materials are being used."

"Cut the crap."

Su Xia Yue and Nan Gong Ling Yun interrupted the Lady Boss at the same time.

However …

The Lady Boss replied with a coy smile, "I'm sorry, but this set of clothes cannot be sold."

Not for sale?

Su Xia Yue and Nan Gong Ling Yun's eyes immediately turned cold, they sullenly looked at the Lady Boss, undisguised displeasure spreading from their entire body.

The auras of these two were too powerful, too terrifying. Even though the Lady Boss had interacted with the government many times, her scalp still tingled and cold sweat dripped from their eyes.

She swallowed hard and wiped off her cold sweat to explain.

"It's not that I don't want to sell it, it's because someone already ordered it. They said they would be coming today so I hung it up here. Who knew that once I took it out, this lady would take a fancy to it …"

"Who ordered this?"

Nan Gong Ling Yun went all out, his pair of sharp eyes making it hard for people to look straight at him.

Su Xia Yue reached out and tugged at the corner of Nan Gong Ling Yun's clothes, wanting him to give up. After all, a gentleman wouldn't take away another's hand. Even though she wasn't a gentleman, she didn't want to be a villain either.

However …

Nan Gong Ling Yun was extremely determined, he stood there with a look of never stopping. The Lady Boss was a bit panicked.
