Before going to Tiannan Mountain, Yuan Bahuang was also a famous swordsman in the northern part of the Central Plains, and he was somewhat famous in the world.
But that was back then, when swordsmen who were relatively well-known in the world were like carps crossing the river, washed away by the waves. Yuan Bahuang had become a veritable rookie in the world after a few decades.
But the Ying Chaoyang he challenged was different. The master of Shanfeng Hidden Style, the leftist extreme Shanfeng, the old man named Tianjian, had also been alone in the world.
So, this is the rising star challenging the established master.
In the absence of the top swordsman, this battle can be said to be a sword duel between top swordsmen in the world, and the level of discussion will naturally increase.
Because Yuan Bahuang did not leave his name on the sword monument, the two of them did not prepare for a sword duel in the sword world. Instead, they chose to set the battlefield at a peak near the Sword Sea, with a very wide view.
From this point of view, Ying Chaoyang deserves the title of Shanfeng Grandmaster.
He did not avoid the battle because of others' defeat, nor did he prevent others from watching the battle because of the possibility of defeat.
Perhaps, he also wanted to take this opportunity to prove to the world that the single-forward style they created is not just for nothing.
There are different opinions about the outcome of the two, and some side activities have even been born as a result, such as long-lasting bets.
In a town near the Lunjian Sea, the three of them were drinking tea in a tea stall the last time they came down from the Pride Peak, and listened to the people in the world talking about recent events.
At this time, three black shadows were seen shooting towards them and landed on the table in front of the three people, making a crisp sound.
"Here, I'll give you the pocket money. Remember to cash it yourself after you finish it."
Before the people at the table had time to react, they saw the person who had gone out coming back soon after, pulled out a bench and sat on the empty seat beside him, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea.
When the three of them heard this, they lowered their heads and saw that there was a nameplate with a logo in front of them. In addition, there were names, odds, and the three thousand taels of silver bet on it. Regarding this matter, they Don't know what to say either.
Ying Chaoyang's odds are one to one, and Yuan Bahuang's odds are one to ten.
In other words, if Yuan Bahuang wins the sword duel, each of the three of them will get thirty thousand taels of pocket money. It is a bit outrageous to buy alcohol and give them pocket money.
After picking up the tea cup and drinking it all, Lin Chongyang said: "I just passed by the door to buy wine, and I drank some on a whim."
When it comes to Jianhai being the banker, there is no need to worry about them denying their credit afterwards. There are also more high-end betting methods, such as how many moves the two sides will make to determine the outcome.
However, Lin Chongyang did not participate. Although the reality was not exactly what he said, it was not much different. It was nothing more than giving some vague support to the promising juniors.
The three people did not refuse and put away the nameplate. Then they heard the most timely question:
"Sir, it seems you don't think much of the old man from Heavenly Sword either?"
Most of the people in the world were more optimistic about the old man Tianjian. The three of them also discussed this matter, but they did not reach a satisfactory result.
"Oh? Who else isn't optimistic about it?" Lin Chongyang added some tea for himself.
Finally, he pointed to Yajiu beside him: "Of course it's Xiaojiu."
"There are people outside the world, and there are people outside the world. Every mountain is as high as a mountain. Ying Chaoyang's foundation is probably similar to that of my father. He has only reached this level in his advanced swordsmanship. It seems that he has encountered a bottleneck that is difficult to overcome. He has not improved for many years."
Yajiu just looks young, and his appearance comes from his heart. His immature mind does not mean that he lacks knowledge:
"Yuanbahuang relies on war to support war, so it must be in excellent condition. Unless the gap between the two sides is as big as a natural chasm, it is difficult to cross, otherwise Ying Chaoyang will definitely lose."
"In terms of foundation, Ying Chaoyang is even better. In terms of swordsmanship, he has no chance of winning." Lin Chongyang gave the answer: "If there are no accidents, the victory of this battle should be decided in three moves, no more than three moves at most. "
To be able to draw such a conclusion, theoretically, one should have sufficient understanding of both parties.
Xiao Wuwu asked: "Master, have you seen them in person?"
"In the past, I took a look at it from a distance at the first sword appraisal meeting held in Lunjianhai."
This was true. He had never dealt with Ying Chaoyang. Yuan Bahuang didn't even go back to Yanfeng that year. As for what happened earlier, it was just a piece of cake and there was no need to talk about it.
Mo Guangyin and Xiao Renren nodded slightly. They expressed their belief in this explanation. If they believe in a ghost, they must not have fully said it.
When Yajiu, who was holding the teacup, heard this, he paused and said nothing.
"Let's go, Tianshuang Mastiff should have found a good position. We just take this opportunity to let you formally get to know the first-class masters and swordsmen in the Central Plains arena."
The tea price had been paid at the beginning. After Lin Chongyang finished speaking, he picked up his dog tail pendant at the last moment, picked up Crow Jiu, and the group left the tea stall.
It was really because of the size of the Sky Frost Mastiff that it was a bit shocking to appear directly in the town, so I took a step forward to occupy the position.
………
A hundred miles away to the west of the Sword Sea, there is only a lake that spans a hundred feet and is as clear as a mirror. It exists in a valley surrounded by mountains. Occasionally, a few birdsong echoes in the peaceful world.
For warriors, the surrounding terrain is not dangerous, but it is also very suitable for watching battles.
The figure in a light brown gown is sitting cross-legged on the lake, with her silver hair hanging loosely. There is no sword intention in her body. She is peaceful and ordinary. Under this situation, she feels even more unfathomable.
A sword with a single edge is placed horizontally between his knees. The blade of the sword is different from ordinary single-edge swords.
It seems to be incomplete, and it also looks like an unpolished sword embryo.
On the shore dozens of feet away, there was another burly figure with a kingly aura standing there, eyes closed, a simple single-edged sword standing next to him, the sword's intention causing ripples in the shallow water of the lake.
Silently and suddenly, it was Yuan Bahuang and Ying Chaoyang, the two parties involved in this sword duel.
Immediately.
One after another, the sound of breaking through the air sounded, and one figure after another fell on the jagged peaks, including but not limited to Chairman Lun Jianhai and others.
A first-class sword duel, in this era where the best swordsmen are all seen first but never seen, has a great influence. Of course, there are also some people who clearly come to watch the fun.
"Senior brother, here!"
At the top of a peak, Ying Yunqian waved his hand in a certain direction, and then saw a rainbow light falling on the top of the peak.
The body shape appeared without any reason, and the first sentence he said after meeting him was:
"Yunqian, I think I saw the boss just now."
His tone was a little uncertain. Thinking about it, he must have read it correctly just now.
"Huh? Master, did you come to watch the battle too?"
At the same time as he spoke, the life trainee began to look around, but the person he was looking for was not found. Instead, he saw an unexpected figure, who was not killed by those in the gun world.
"is her?"
These words of surprise and a bit of relief successfully attracted the attention of the other two people.
With just one glance, Sui Wudu and Ying Yunqian recognized the person.
Ying Yunqian looked a little strange: "Do you know him?"
"How should I put it? I don't know him, but I have a connection in the gun world."
