Both sides began to discuss Tang Yin's conditions, and it was the start of the war. Bessar's ministers were also present recently.
As for the first condition, Bessa City agreed to the non-stationed army at both sides of the border. However, was requested not to guard the army either, in order to show fairness. Currently, Tang Yin did not have any extra troops guarding the border, so he naturally accepted Beisa's condition.
The second condition was to open all the cities in the area of Pisa for commercial purposes. When Sanchez agreed to it, he also requested for Tang Yin to open all the cities in the areas of Tang Yin's jurisdiction for Pisa as well. In this aspect, Tang Yin was determined not to retreat. Opening up the city was equivalent to allowing the People of Bessa City to freely enter and exit, if by chance Bessa's troops infiltrated the city in large numbers, it would suddenly become troublesome. On Beisha's side, he had the same concerns as Tang Yin. Both sides fought back and forth with reason, no one giving in. In the end, the discussion had reached a stalemate. Tang Yin and Sanchez could only take a step back, as Tang Yin had promised to open up the border cities and Heng City while Sanchez had promised to open up the five cities at the border of Pisa. The two sides had finally reached an agreement on the second point.
When they reached the third condition, Tang Yin asked Beisa to compensate him with five hundred thousand gold and five million silver.
Bessa would never give out so much gold and silver obediently. The two sides also haggled over the compensation, but they were still unable to come to a conclusion in the end.
It was already dark by now, and the conversation between the two sides was getting more tiring. It was even more tiring than fighting on the battlefield.
Sanchez said: "General Tang, it's already late, how about we discuss this matter tomorrow?"
Tang Yin nodded and replied: "Of course."
Sanchez laughed: "Tonight, the palace is hosting a banquet, I hope that General Tang can stay and attend."
Tang Yin wanted to reject, but after being stunned for a moment, he agreed: "Alright, it's better to be respectful than to accept."
Sanchez laughed when he heard this.
The banquet at the palace of Bessar was extraordinary. Not only was it grand, it was also sumptuous.
The banquet hall was close to five meters tall and around twenty meters wide. The large hall was filled with people, all of them being officials of the Bessa City and their families. Groups of servants went in and out, shuttling through the crowd.
Tang Yin was not unfamiliar with this western style banquet, but Shangguan Yuan was extremely surprised. He felt that it was very fresh when he looked at it, especially the glazed glass cups used at the banquet, they were crystal clear, such things could not be seen in Feng Country.
All the people present were nobles of Baisa, and only Tang Yin and Shangguan Yuan let these two famous people, who were dressed differently from the rest, become the center of attention of the banquet. Many of the nobles had long heard of Tang Yin's name, so they wanted to take a look at him to see what kind of person he was.
Initially, they thought Tang Yin had three heads and six arms. Turns out that he was not even close to a normal People of Bessa City, with a height of 1.8 meters, he could only be considered average in terms of People of Bessa City and he was also skinny. Adding the fact that he was born with a smile, he looked like an Asian man. On the other hand, Shangguan Yuan, who was standing beside him, gave off a mighty aura. His big black face showed no anger, and his expression was ice-cold. He looked like a black-faced fiend.
During the banquet, the official in charge of receiving Tang Yin at the Bessa Imperial Court would occasionally introduce him to the surrounding nobles. No matter how smart and smart Tang Yin was, he could not remember all those complicated names.
However, a young lady wearing a white sand skirt beside Sanchez caught his attention. This lady was around 23 or 24 years old, had blonde hair and blue eyes, snow-white skin, and a raised nose.
The reason why Tang Yin was paying attention to her was because she would glance at him from time to time with a gaze filled with self-confidence and provocation, as if the two of them had met each other before.
Shangguan Yuan moved his sharp eyes closer to Tang Yin, looking at him, then at the lady beside King Bessa, and asked: "You know her?"
Tang Yin shook his head.
"She seems to be very interested in you!" Shangguan Yuan let the thief laugh as he spoke.
Tang Yin frowned, he sniffed at the air, and the smell of alcohol immediately assaulted his nostrils. It was obvious that Shangguan Yuan wanted a drink, but he did not answer, instead he said in a low voice, "Drink less wine."
"Compared to the strong alcohol from Feng Country, Bessar's wine is like sugary water." Shangguan Yuan said disapprovingly.
"This kind of wine has a strong aftertaste, making it easier to get drunk. Don't forget where we are right now. If we get drunk, we won't be able to survive!" Tang Yin said faintly. The wine at the banquet was all red wine. It was sour, sweet, astringent, and not good for the taste, but it could easily make people drunk without them realizing it.
Shangguan Yuan looked at Tang Yin in shock, feeling that he had even more knowledge than himself, as if there was nothing that he didn't understand. He was impressed, but he did not say it out loud. He said indifferently, "There is no wine in this world that can make me drunk yet!" As he spoke, he put down the cup in his hand and didn't take another sip.
Right at this moment, Knies walked towards Tang Yin under the escort of a group of people.
Just by looking at his arrogant manner while he was walking, Tang Yin had a premonition that trouble was coming, and the surrounding nobles seemed to have sensed that something was amiss, as they all stopped their conversations and looked in his direction.
Knies immediately walked to Tang Yin, chuckled, and asked hypocritically: "General Tang, are you satisfied with the wine and dishes at the banquet?"
Tang Yin remained calm and said indifferently: "Not too good, and not too bad either."
Knies was startled, and then he angrily laughed. He turned his body to the side, and pointed to a sturdy man behind him, saying: "This is our Beisa's King of Fighting, he has already won more than fifty matches in a row, he has never lost."
Tang Yin looked up and down at the burly man that Knies was pointing at.
He was a pure black man, over two meters tall, with a strong build like a great buffalo. He had no hair on his head, and his skin was so dark that it seemed to be about to burst with oil. His nose was flat, and his thick lips were turned outwards.
Tang Yin looked at the black man and this black man was also sizing up Tang Yin.
"Your Soul Martial Arts is very powerful. I admire it, but I wonder how strong your fighting techniques are? Does General Tang have the guts to fight him without a spirit weapon? " Knies raised his chin and glanced at Tang Yin disdainfully.
Hearing this, the entire banquet hall quietened down, and everyone turned to look at Tang Yin, including the King of Pisa, Sanchez and the lady beside him.
Shangguan Yuan did not know what he was talking about, but he had a rough idea. He laughed out loud and said to Tang Yin: "If you want to fight, let me!"
Tang Yin waved at him. Shangguan Yuan might have a high cultivation base, but if it was just in terms of fighting techniques, he might not be able to beat these slaves who specialized in fighting.
He looked into Knies's eyes and laughed: "Why not? I just feel sorry for you. "
Knies did not understand, and blurted out a question: "What is such a pity?"
"It's a pity that I lost a very skilled slave."
"Ha ha!" Knies laughed, it was unknown whether he was amused by Tang Yin or angered by him, he stretched his head and got closer to Tang Yin and said: "If the General Tang thinks that he is no match in battle, in order to protect your life, you can use the Spirit Force."
Tang Yin shrugged and laughed: "There's no need for that."
"Alright!" Knies pointed his finger, then shouted to the surrounding nobles: "All of you, move aside, let us see how powerful the fighting techniques of General Tang are!" As he spoke, he himself was also retreating. As he passed the black man, he said softly: "Glew, kill him!"
The black slave called Glew glared at Tang Yin as he panted heavily. His adult arm that was as thick as a thigh had veins bulging out as if he was a wild beast that was about to be released from its cage.
However, when Tang Yin received the spear, he did not even look at it, but threw it away casually. Turning around, he walked to the front of the table and picked up a wine cup with his two fingers, then said with a smile, "To take his life, this wine cup is enough."
Hua — — After hearing what Tang Yin said, the Bertha aristocrats immediately went into an uproar. Although Glew was only a slave, he was extremely famous in Bessa. It was just as Knies had said, he had never lost in the battle on the fighting stage, and countless Gladiator had died under his hands. This time, Knies had brought him here to ruin Tang Yin's spirit.
Seeing that Tang Yin wanted to hold onto his wine cup and fight with Glew who was holding onto his spear, the king Sanchez also laughed, waiting to see a good show.
On the stage, seeing Tang Yin who was holding onto a wine cup slowly walking towards him, Glew suddenly roared out in anger, holding onto his spear, he rushed forward, the spear in his hand thrusting straight towards Tang Yin's chest.
"Oh!"
The men and women, young and old, all looked shocked and excited. In their eyes, this was not a fight between two lives at all, but a game that could give them excitement and fun. This was the nobleman of Bessar.
Tang Yin sneered in his heart. Just by the fact that his People of Bessa City did not treat slaves as people, he could make use of this in the future.
When the spear got close to him, he slid down and with an incredible speed and angle, dodged behind Glew.
Glew was truly exceptional, with such a huge body, his reaction was extremely fast, his movements were extremely agile, following that, he swung his spear, and pierced towards Tang Yin who was behind him.
