Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Although Jiang Yue was small, she was still calm.
Shiye naturally followed.
He didn’t need Commander Deng to specially arrange a seat for him. He had already paid two coins to Commander Deng yesterday. He had only spent a few coins on the silver notes that his Great General had given him. He could still watch many shows. Therefore, as long as he had the time to watch, he would pay and stand at the very front.
The front of the stage was a few meters away from the stage in the middle. The stage was obviously for performance, and the stage below was the competition venue.
They were surrounded by a long rope and tied to a wooden stake every few steps. They formed a big oval. The people who came to watch the fun stood outside the rope. This was a safe distance to prevent the people inside the oval from hurting the people outside the rope if an accident happened during the competition.
The people who paid the money were naturally the people who stood closest to the rope.
However, this rope was used to stop the people in the military camp from coming forward. It was a little high, but Jiang Yue stood below it. She was small, so it was more than enough for her to walk past it.
Jiang Yue was expressionless.
Xue Yan was much taller than Jiang Yue. The rope in front of him reached his neck, which could barely stop him from entering the rope. However, looking at the rope in front of his neck, he felt insecure.
He couldn’t help but rub his neck in worry.
“Sanfu, Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, you guys just stand here and watch.” With that, Xue Wufu carried the flag and ran backstage. The show was about to start!
Commander Deng also hurried backstage.
Seeing that Xue Wufu and the others were already in position, Commander Deng hurriedly took down the small flag on his back and waved it nimbly.
When the soldiers standing on the high platform saw this flag signal, they immediately waved the flag in their hands and signaled.
Then, the soldiers who were slightly further away followed suit and signaled. Then, the flag soldiers further away signaled…
And so forth…
The message was passed to the flag soldiers at the end of the crowd.
In the end, all the soldiers on duty waved their flags at the same time. The same signal was seen by the people playing music on the platforms in all directions. Then, all the music stopped immediately.
“Oh oh… Oh oh… Oh oh…” The onlookers were even more excited and cheered.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn’t need to ask anyone to see that this meant that the competition was finally about to begin.
Seeing that the music had stopped, Commander Deng hurriedly asked a soldier who was already waiting with a torch to hurry to the front of the big platform and light up the pile of firewood that had been drenched with oil.
“Yes, sir!” The soldier immediately ran off to do the counting happily.
With a spark, the pile of firewood was immediately set ablaze. The flames rose several feet high, and the atmosphere became even more heated.
“Oh, oh! Oh oh!” Everyone became even more excited as if they had gone crazy.
Looking at the soaring flames in front of them, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other with wide eyes.
This atmosphere… It was good.
After the flames shot up high, a drum struck everyone’s heart. Then, the sound of music came from many directions.
Just as the commotion was getting intense, Xue Wufu carried the flag and rushed out from backstage happily. Behind him were many flag soldiers carrying the flag, including the quadruplets..
