Luo Guan's calmness comes from his strength, but in the eyes of Wang and Sun, he is just... pretending to be calm!
How powerful and terrifying is the twenty-fourth in the Imperial Martial Competition? Compared with the top ten emperors, they are only one level behind.
I can tell with my knees that Wu Fan, who has been in seclusion for two years, must have great confidence when he returns at this juncture, and his strength is difficult to predict. Who wouldn't be afraid of being stared at by such an almost unstoppable strongman who threatens to kill him?
Zou Shanshan looked at the calm face in front of her, and thought of her father's nagging, waiting outside the Imperial Martial Sect a while ago, and being ridiculed by Liu Yue because of it, she suddenly felt resentful!
"Senior Brother Wang Sun is worried too much. Wu Fan only missed the last Imperial Martial Competition. According to the old rules, he still has the right to be ranked twenty-fourth. If we want to meet him in the competition, he must at least break into the Heaven Ranking and maintain two consecutive victories. There is a certain probability." Zou Shanshan's tone was calm, but some meaning still flowed out of her words.
The top 100 in the Imperial Martial Competition, also known as the Tianbang.
It means that anyone who makes this list is likely to soar into the sky!
You, Luo Guan, can you enter the Heaven Ranking and win two consecutive games?
"...Junior sister Shanshan, what you said makes sense!" Wang Sun cheered up and showed joy, "I thought wrong. I only care about Wu Fan who wants to seek revenge. We don't need to meet him at all. ! In this way, no matter how powerful Wu Fan is, he can't hurt Junior Brother Luo at all."
"No wonder Master Zou looked calm when he found out. It turned out that he had figured this out a long time ago... Junior Brother Luo was so calm, he must have thought, hey, in the end it was me who was blindly anxious!"
Zou Shanshan:......
Senior brother, do you really understand what I mean?
Looking at Luo Guan again, his face was still calm, unchanged from before.
This guy is so thick-skinned, even if I mocked him in front of him, he didn’t even react at all!
"That's how it is, Senior Brother, otherwise you think I still have the heart to eat?" Tao Ye looked like he had seen through everything, his eyes were rolling, "But Junior Brother Luo, you still have a chance in Tianbang. What's the benefit if you succeed?" Duoduo, we can also take advantage of it and try the special dishes on the seventh floor of Zhaixinglou!"
Zhang Tie slapped him, and the ridicule on his honest face made people even more maddening, "Skinny Monkey, you are so greedy!"
"What are you talking nonsense about? Brother Tao and I are not like that!" Tao Ye grinned, "Let's go, the competition is about to begin."
"Skinny Monkey, wait for me!"
Helplessness flashed in Zou Shanshan's eyes, when will the senior brothers grow up? Exhausted!
"Senior Brother Wangsun, I'm leaving first too."
She turned around with a determined look on her face!
Dad, my daughter wants you to know that even without a son-in-law, I can still be your pride.
In this competition, I, Zou Shanshan, want to tell everyone that there is a successor to the old Zou family - no one can bully my father anymore!
As soon as she left, Wang Sun rubbed his hands and said awkwardly: "After the incident at Jiange, Master Zou didn't know what he was thinking. He asked Junior Sister Shanshan and I to wait for you outside the Imperial Martial Arts Center for many days... Well, Junior Sister was originally treating you badly. There is a bit of a misunderstanding, and it will become even more serious when being teased by Master Zou, Junior Brother Luo, don’t be angry.”
Of course he understood some of the words.
How could a humble bastard, who lived in Qinghe County, a place with strict hierarchy and cannibalistic ethics, live safely to adulthood and successfully join the Imperial Martial Academy, be a mediocre person?
He was confused about Wu Fan's accident because he wanted to "lose some face" to himself as a way to ease the situation and minimize Luo Guan's embarrassment.
Luo Guan looked at his face, guessed something after a brief taste, and was speechless, "Master Zou's imagination... is really amazing!" No wonder Zou Shanshan had a bad attitude towards him today. He smiled bitterly, "Senior Brother Wangsun, let's go over there Well, by the way, please tell me about the rules of the Imperial Martial Competition."
Wang Sun breathed a sigh of relief, gave Junior Brother Luo a thumbs up, and took out a booklet from his arms, "I thought you would need it, so I compiled a copy in advance, but you haven't been here during this time, and I haven't had the chance to give it to you. .”
"Senior brother is interested." Luo Guan's heart warmed slightly. Thinking about Wang Sun's previous "embarrassing" incident, a thought flashed through his mind. However, Dabi was not in a hurry at the moment.
Soon, Luo Guan flipped through the booklet and had a basic idea of the Imperial Martial Arts Competition - the Imperial Martial Arts Competition was divided into three realms and twenty-one sections according to different strengths: namely, the three realms of Hundred Man, Thousand Mountains and Ten Thousand Levels. The strength in this category Within, it is divided into seven sections, covering most of the Imperial Martial Arts students.
Colleges such as Wang Sun and Zou Shanshan who have already participated in the Imperial Martial Arts Competition can immediately participate in this level competition. If they win three games in a row or rank high, they will automatically be qualified to challenge the previous level.
But for new students like Luo Guan, participating in the competition requires one more step than before - setting the stage!
There are two ways to determine a section. Luo Guan felt that the first method was too arrogant and skipped it.
The second type... Well, strictly speaking, it is very crude. That is, the determined students can designate to challenge any student below the Tianban according to their own strength. If they defeat the opponent, they will automatically complete the determined stage and be qualified to participate in their ranking competition. The challenger will be ranked Automatically adjust down.
After a while, the two came to the main square, where the imperial martial arts competition arena was set up. As far as the eye could see, there was already a sea of people.
Wang Sun stopped, hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Junior Brother Luo, I know that you sword cultivators..." When he said this, there was a look of envy on his face. With the sword in hand, you can move forward bravely, but I still remind you that there is no need to rush into a fight. Junior brother, you are still very young, and you will have the opportunity to show off your talents in the future."
“So, we really won’t fight for this Imperial Martial Competition!”
Luo Guan smiled, "Okay, I understand."
Wang Sun went away satisfied, he still had a game today.
The large square is divided into three realms and twenty-one sections, with dozens of arenas set up for multiple games to be held at the same time. Luo Guanlue searched for it and found the staged arena in the southeast of the main square. When he arrived, there was already a queue here.
At this time, there was also a restlessness in the crowd, and many people's eyes subconsciously showed awe. As the only student taking the additional examination this year, he first caused a shocking phenomenon with the sound of the sword, and then killed two Wus in a row with the sword pavilion. Luo Guan has unconsciously become one of the most popular representatives among the freshmen of this year.
At this moment, Nangong Duoduo, Wei Wei, and Yang Jian, three of the absolute best among the freshmen, walked over to the crowd.
Wei Wei's face was cold, as if he was not good at words, "Luo Guan, I heard some news. You'd better not try to get a high ranking in this Imperial Martial Competition, otherwise you will be sniped." He was born in the Donglin Sword Sect, and in the Imperial Martial Arts Competition, he Like Baiyun Sect, they are all members of the sect and are relatively well-informed.
"I have heard of Wu Fan from the Wu family. He is indeed extremely powerful." Yang Jian's eyebrows were unruly, and he had the aura of killing people in the army. "You are no match for him. You should stay away from the edge for now. Tomorrow and the year after tomorrow, you and I will be the most powerful." Time to shine!”
Nangong Duoduo has the most immature face, but has a calmness that is not for her age. Her tone is calm, "Luo Guan, we are saying this because we don't understand certain practices. After all, you and I are in the same year, and we are closer than ordinary classmates. In the future, Maybe we can help each other.”
"But birds of a feather flock together, and the three of us have decided to make it to the top this year. Only by doing this can you truly become friends with us!"
In the battle of Jiange, Luo Guanjian killed Wu Doushan, and his reputation suddenly rose, attracting all the swordsman masters to compete for it. This is indeed a fact. But in the eyes of many people, he himself was not at a high level, and it was only through the use of some secret method that caused heavy losses that he exploded into super powerful combat power.
Most of these secret techniques have strict restrictions. It takes a long time to recover after using them once, let alone releasing them continuously. Therefore, in the Imperial Martial Competition, which requires multiple battles to determine the ranking, Luo Guan's strength is somewhat insufficient.
Even if he explodes with amazing strength in a battle, what happens after that? Once someone challenges you again, you will most likely have to admit defeat.
Luo Guan looked calm and glanced at her, "I am different from Miss Nangong. Making friends does not depend on strength."
Nangong Duoduo lowered her head slightly and said softly: "If you break into Tianbang, I will apologize to you for offending you today." She turned and left, seemingly polite but hiding deep pride.
Wei Wei nodded and followed her.
The Jianzong to the east and the Nangong family of Langya County have a very deep connection and have always advanced and retreated together.
Yang Jian grinned and gave a thumbs up, "Luo Guan, I think you are more pleasing to the eye. This little girl is the youngest, but she has a deep mind to be the number one among the freshmen and be our leader."
He seemed to be disdainful, but his expression showed fear, "However, I have to remind you that this talented girl hidden by the Nangong family is really strong. Although she told you that she has reached the top of the heaven list, I am sure that she has more goals. That’s why! So, if you don’t want to be looked down upon by her, then show your strength in the competition!”
As the new students in the Imperial Martial Arts this year, they dare to set their sights on the Heavenly Ranking. Their talent and strength are needless to say, no matter who knows them, they will inevitably be amazed.
But for Luo Guan, all this is meaningless, because what he is competing for is not to emerge, let alone to be a new leader. He wants to win the top ten in the Imperial Martial Competition and gain the qualification to enter and exit the Imperial Martial Mountain!
After receiving the stage arrangement, Luo Guan casually sat down under the stage and closed his eyes to rest. But not long after it was quiet, he felt someone staring at him. When he opened his eyes, he saw Zou Chengwei's happy face, which was in sharp contrast to the cold face of Zou Shanshan next to him.
"Luo Guan, are you coming to watch Shanshan compete? Okay, okay, you are serious!" Originally, Luo Guan's disappearance during this period of time made Lao Zou doubt his own judgment, but now... everything has been proven.
I, Lao Zou, have a really sharp eye!
This kid is really hiding deep, but at the critical moment, you still can't help but worry, right?
Luo Guan was speechless. Seeing the smile on Lao Zou's lips and the trace of pride that could not be concealed in the corners of his eyebrows, it was not difficult to guess what he was thinking now.
But most of this kind of thing is getting darker and darker. He glanced at Zou Shanshan with a cold face. Anyway, he was not the only one who felt uncomfortable. Do whatever you want, so he stood up and called Master Zou.
"Sit down, you're not an outsider, why are you so polite?" Zou Chengwei smiled kindly and gave his daughter a hand, but she didn't give him any face, sitting on the other side and turned to look at the ring.
"Ahem! Luo Guan, I asked your senior brother Wangsun to leave a bed for you in the dormitory. You should move back here when you find time. The consumption level in the imperial capital is high, so even if your family gives you some money, you have to save some money. You seem to be quite old now. You will have a lot of money in the future when you start a family and start a business..."
Zou Shanshan was anxious, her face flushed, "Dad, what did you say!" These words were so explicit that she couldn't even pretend not to hear them.
"Hahaha, dad won't tell me anymore!" Zou Chengwei laughed and said to himself, silly daughter, such a good son-in-law, we can't miss it! It's okay if you are thin-skinned. Dad, help you. We must capture this kid as soon as possible! When he turned around and looked at Luo Guan, he still looked calm and calm, and he felt even more satisfied.
Just when Luo Guan was gradually unable to bear the look of him looking at his son-in-law like a mountain, someone suddenly came over in a hurry and said, "Teacher Zou, something happened to your disciple!"
