At the moment.
There was still some time before the luncheon.
In the distance were two super bigwigs, and nearby was the prestigious daughter of the Nan family.
This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Ouyang Fengyu's eyes twinkled, and he chuckled, "Everyone, our Yan family manor has many entertainment facilities. We can enjoy ourselves, find some fun, and pass the time!"
"Great, I've long known that Brother Fengyu is a retired archery champion. Why don't we go to the archery range and have Brother Fengyu perform for us?" Lü Ziming chimed in.
Ouyang Fengyu's face turned awkward!
He instinctively glanced at Liu Di, his expression sour, "Well... let's forget about that! No need to perform!"
Then, Ouyang Fengyu straightened his chest, "But I've heard that Brother Ziming is a renowned equestrian expert, and Brother Tiancheng is a top-notch shooting expert?"
"Coincidentally, our Yan family manor not only has a dedicated horse track and racecourse but also a shotgun shooting range!"
"Why don't we have a little competition?"
After saying this, Ouyang Fengyu looked meaningfully at Lü Ziming and Zhou Tiancheng.
The two instantly understood.
Brother Fengyu is indeed a great help!
He deliberately created an opportunity for us to showcase ourselves!
They glanced at Nan Ruoyi, who, since meeting everyone, had become quite reserved for some unknown reason.
She just looked at everyone indifferently, seemingly detached.
"Then it's settled! Let's go!"
Ouyang Fengyu laughed heartily, not allowing anyone to object, and directly called everyone to set off!
...
In the racecourse.
Everyone's eyes lit up upon seeing the robust black steed in the stable.
"What a fine horse!"
Lü Ziming stepped out from the crowd first, "I've participated in nearly a hundred equestrian competitions, both large and small, and have seen countless famous horses domestically and abroad, but I've never seen a horse with such spirit!"
"This is a Baicha Iron Hoof Horse, originally from the mountains, with very hard hooves. In the eyes of most people, it's not suitable for use in a racecourse, but that's a huge underestimation!"
"Because it only reveals its true abilities when it meets a highly skilled equestrian. Only when the rider's skills are at their peak can it gallop flexibly on the plains!"
After speaking, Lü Ziming looked at everyone proudly, full of self-satisfaction!
It must be said, Lü Ziming, though a playboy, indeed has considerable expertise in equestrianism!
With just one glance, he could analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the horse in detail!
Seeing Miss Nan nod slightly.
He felt even more pleased!
Even Liu Di was attracted by the steed before him, unable to resist stepping forward to gently stroke it.
"Liu Di, I advise you to be careful!"
"This horse has a fiery temperament, and if it kicks you, I won't be responsible!"
Lü Ziming shouted impatiently, his expression full of disdain!
"Haha, Brother Ziming is right, this horse has been at our manor for some time, but no one has been able to successfully ride it! It has a fiery temperament!"
Ouyang Fengyu laughed as he stepped out, "If Brother Ziming can ride this horse, it would naturally demonstrate his excellent riding skills!"
"Hehe, to be honest, I've had the fortune to encounter such horses before, and they were all easily handled!"
Lü Ziming boasted arrogantly, looking at the horse with confidence.
Liu Di smiled slightly and stepped back two paces, "Why don't you show everyone then?"
"Of course!"
Lü Ziming completely ignored Liu Di, smiling as he looked at Nan Ruoyi, "It's a rare occasion to have Miss Nan here, and since it's our first meeting, I must give it my all and perform for Miss Nan!"
With that, Lü Ziming stretched his body.
He seriously gazed at the steed before him for a moment.
He gently patted the horse's back and mounted it directly.
And that proud Baicha Iron Hoof Horse didn't resist at all!
Everyone couldn't help but applaud!
Lü Ziming's posture was quite upright, and riding on the tall horse, he indeed had some grace!
Lü Ziming smiled slightly, glancing at Nan Ruoyi.
Even Miss Nan's eyes showed some approval!
Then.
Lü Ziming took a deep breath, "Giddy up!"
The air was eerily silent!
The steed didn't move at all!
Hmm?
Lü Ziming tightened his grip on the saddle again, "Giddy up!"
The steed still didn't move!
Everyone was silent.
"Hehe."
A faint mocking sound came from Liu Di, "I advise you to get off the horse within 10 seconds!"
Lü Ziming shouted angrily from the horse, "Liu Di, what do you know, this is called gathering strength, in a moment..."
Suddenly.
The steed neighed!
Its front hooves suddenly reared high, and with a fierce shake, it threw Lü Ziming off!
Three meters away, Lü Ziming fell flat on his face!
Everyone was astonished!
Lü Ziming got up in a sorry state, his face twisted, "Fengyu, what's wrong with this horse of yours, there's something wrong with it!"
"The problem is with you!"
Liu Di slowly walked forward, standing in front of the horse, "This horse is indeed a Baicha Iron Hoof, but it's also a purebred Mongolian warhorse!"
"Mongolian warhorses are born on the vast plains, galloping across the vast plains, with a fierce and proud nature. Its ancestors were the Mongolian cavalry of the great Mongol Emperor Genghis Khan!"
"Mongolian warhorses are born for battle, ridden by heroes, they do not like pampering, nor do they like the incompetent!"
"They are full of spirit, able to perceive everything, and will never submit to mediocrity!"
Snort...
As Liu Di spoke, the Mongolian warhorse behind him snorted angrily!
As if affirming Liu Di's words!
Liu Di looked at the disheveled Lü Ziming and sneered, "Someone as vile inside and weak outside as you, do you think you're worthy of riding a Mongolian warhorse? It's a joke!"
"Liu Di, what gives you the right to say that!"
Lü Ziming was furious, "This horse is clearly wild and untamed, poorly trained! What hero's ride, stop talking nonsense, if you have the guts, try it yourself, see if you don't get thrown off!"
Seeing Lü Ziming's embarrassment, Ouyang Fengyu also felt a bit embarrassed, frowning, "Liu Di, you say this horse is for heroes to ride, do you dare to call yourself a hero and give it a try?"
Ouyang Fengyu was quite helpless at this moment.
He had given Lü Ziming a chance to shine, but didn't expect him to make a fool of himself!
Now, he could only hope that Liu Di would also make a fool of himself.
If no one could ride it, then there would be no issue of losing face!
Yan Qingwen, upon hearing this, also showed a hint of worry on her face, gently shaking her head at Liu Di.
Signaling him not to act rashly.
But Liu Di shook his head slightly, "There's no need for me to ride."
"Tch..."
"So you only know how to talk big!"
Zhou Tiancheng sneered disdainfully!
Then.
Liu Di just smiled faintly, turned around with his hands behind his back, and looked directly at the Mongolian warhorse!
The Thousand Stance—The Emperor's Stance!
The next moment.
The proud Mongolian warhorse neighed towards the sky.
Stepped forward with its hooves!
Knees bent!
Its head slowly lowered!
Just like that, as if worshiping a god of war, it slowly prostrated itself before Liu Di!
This was respect for a warrior!
Submission to a strong one!
And Liu Di, he just smiled calmly!
The clouds roll and stretch from ancient times to the present, the lord stands proudly, his aura roaring!
Having seen all the heroes with tiger courage, in terms of aura, who else but me?
