Torches were lit around the huge circular square, and scarlet flames burned brightly in the trumpet-shaped stone altar. There is a three-story stone platform built outside the square, with hundreds of spectators sitting on it. There is an observation tower in each of the four directions of southeast, northwest, and these four observation towers are specially set up for the four city lords of the City of Darkness.
On the high platform at the front and back stands a tall gong. In front of the gong stands a strong man with strong muscles. Behind this big man stood a man wearing colorful clothes and a feather crown. He walked slowly to a big loudspeaker and said: "Dear citizens of the City of Darkness, what you are going to see tonight The competition is a feast for the eyes and unprecedented.
Our noble Lady Rose has issued a statement to the nine elders, and all the elders have agreed. Her swordsman Mr. Feng Chen will face the fifteen masters who have advanced in this competition. "
As soon as the man finished speaking, the square became noisy like thunder, and everyone started talking among themselves. Because since the establishment of the City of Darkness, there has never been a precedent for one person to face ten people in the life and death competition held every year, let alone this person to face fifteen masters. If his martial arts skills were not extraordinary, he would be a complete lunatic. But Mrs. Rose was obviously well-informed in making such a decision.
The man in colorful clothes continued: "You heard me right, one fights fifteen. I believe you are looking forward to this duel as much as I do, so please invite our warriors." With the sound of drums, fifteen people came from Walk out of their respective iron gates. Xiao Yunfan was wearing cloth clothes and had a black sword scabbard on his shoulder. He strutted towards the center of the ring.
Someone in the crowd asked: "Isn't he the one who defeated Zi Yanzi that night? This man has some abilities." The person next to him said disdainfully: "Beating Zi Yanzi is not a top expert, let alone these ten. The five of you are all very capable, I think this kid must be crazy." Another person said: "Since he is talking arrogantly, he might actually have some skills."
Su Changmao looked at the field with a telescope, with a wicked smile on his lips. He thought to himself: "Xiao Yunfan, Xiao Yunfan, if there is a road to heaven, you don't take it, and if there is no door to hell, you break in. I didn't expect you to come this time, but it was an unexpected surprise. You have ruined many important things for our sect. It will be long ago." It’s time to get rid of you. But the people before were not very lucky and died in your hands in a daze. It’s up to me to deal with you, the Jade Lion.”
The Wild Boar King who defeated Aaron that day and the Iron Fist who defeated Xiao Meng stood opposite each other, with fierce looks in their eyes. The two of them had a good relationship with Zi Yanzi, who was defeated by Xiao Yunfan, and was whipped by Lei Huang for this. The Wild Boar King's nostrils were flaring, and he was so angry that he wanted to immediately tear Xiao Yunfan into pieces with his hands. Iron Fist also moved his neck, making a sound of bones exploding, and stared at the opponent coldly.
At this time, there was a crisp gong sound. Xiao Yunfan glanced at everyone and said calmly: "Are you going up together? Or one by one. If you go up one by one, I will accompany you; if you go up together, that would be the best and save a lot of trouble."
Seeing his arrogant tone, a swordsman with splayed eyebrows strode out. This man held a long sword in his arms, and the golden sword tassels swayed in the wind. Xiao Yunfan's eyes lit up and he said, "Oh! My dear, if you want to take the lead, that's great. Please give me some advice."
This swordsman with splayed eyebrows is called Ge Pingnan. Just last night, he defeated his opponent with just one sword strike. Xiao Yunfan glanced at his face and thought about the names and portraits on the roster: "This person is probably the Feihong Swordsman. His sword is famous for its speed."
Ge Pingnan said coldly: "Are you worthy of using a sword?" Xiao Yunfan raised the scabbard and frowned, showing a look of shame and said: "You are right, I am not worthy of using a sword, so I only use one scabbard. Ge Pingnan said: "Since you know you are going to make a fool of yourself, then I will give you a good pleasure." Xiao Yunfan said: "Well, I like to deal with people who are happy, so you can give me a good pleasure."
Ge Pingnan's pupils shrank suddenly. He held the bottom of the scabbard with one palm. The long sword unsheathed itself and bounced into the air. His men also flew up. There was a flash of white light, and a bolt of lightning broke through the wind. Xiao Yunfan turned his wrist, and the scabbard circled around his wrist. Then he held the scabbard upright and handed it forward.
The dazzling white brilliance disappeared in the scabbard in an instant. Xiao Yunfan shook his arms, secretly accumulating inner strength. Ge Pingnan was startled and wanted to draw his sword, but only one hilt came out. Xiao Yunfan jumped forward and kicked Ge Nanping into a somersault. His move was so swift and urgent that others couldn't help but change their expressions when they saw Ge Nanping falling to the ground.
The Wild Boar King and Iron Fist jumped out. The Wild Boar King crossed his swords on his chest and separated them on both sides and shouted: "Boy, if you bully Sister Yan, I will never let you go tonight." Xiao Yunfan touched his nose and said, "Oh , I'm really sorry, I didn't know she was your sweetheart. Cheng, Cheng, you want to fight me for your sweetheart, I'm very satisfied with this reason."
As he said that, he looked at Tie Fist again and asked, "Are you fighting me because of your sweetheart?" Tie Fist said, "You don't have to worry about my business." As he spoke, veins popped up on his forehead, and his arms were moving with full strength. He rushed towards Xiao Yunfan, and the Wild Boar King also attacked him with his double swords.
The Wild Boar King's blade was sharp and came towards him with a strong wind. Xiao Yunfan raised the scabbard in his hand and met the opponent's blade with a clang. The blade hit the scabbard, and a gap appeared on the blade. The Wild Boar King couldn't help but be startled and took a few steps back. His pair of swords are made of Burmese iron. They are extremely flexible and can be called precious swords.
The sword made of Burmese iron is extremely flexible, requiring the wielder to rely solely on wrist strength and skill to use it, and his moves are also extremely vicious. He never expected that his sword would be broken by Xiao Yunfan's inconspicuous scabbard. His heart ached, and his eyes almost wanted to burst into flames. I saw him yell loudly, twist his wrists, and kill again with his two swords like a whirlwind.
The iron fist also flashed and hit Xiao Yunfan's vest. Under the attack between the two of them, Xiao Yunfan felt slightly short of breath. Amidst the opponent's dense sword shadow and fist wind, he unfolded the Blue Sea and Blue Sky Sword to compete with the two. This scabbard is made of meteorite iron from the sky, so it is of extraordinary quality. Coupled with the Blue Sea and Blue Sky Sword, the power is greatly increased.
Even though the two of them launched a violent attack, Xiao Yunfan was still able to cope with it. Xiao Yunfan had already calculated that all of these people were extremely shrewd, and whoever got there first would naturally suffer a loss. They just sit back and watch, just to see their sword path clearly so that they can find a way to break it. 12
The essence of the Bihai Qingtian Sword lies in the word "bian". This swordsmanship was born out of the art of war, and the art of war inherently emphasizes the word deceit. The so-called deception is to deceive the opponent and create favorable conditions for oneself, so as to achieve the purpose of annihilating the enemy.
When he made his move, he deliberately made his sword skills mediocre and crooked. In fact, he was just trying to fool the two people in front of him. Both of them wanted to avenge their companions. When they made the move, they were inevitably impetuous and couldn't help but think about this aspect. Xiao Yunfan pointed his scabbard to the left towards the bridge of the Wild Boar King's nose. His nose was already larger than that of an ordinary person, occupying almost one-third of his face.
This nose is his biggest weakness. Seeing the opponent's scabbard flying towards him, he hurriedly blocked it with his sword. Then he thought that Xiao Yunfan's "Rain hits the banana" move was just a feint. He turned the scabbard and hit the opponent's Tanzhong point. When the iron fist hit, he stepped out diagonally. He turned his feet and circled behind the opponent. Kicked out with a back foot and hit the opponent's butt.
The Wild Boar King is tall and powerful with his iron fist. His punches were so fast and powerful that he couldn't hold back after moving forward. Seeing that his fists were about to hit his companion, he hurriedly pulled back. Just as Xiao Yunfan kicked him again, he hit the Wild Boar King. With a "bang" sound, their heads hit each other, and they fainted with blood flowing out.
The nine elders sitting at the front desk started talking when they saw Xiao Yunfan's tactics. An old man wearing an apricot-yellow robe said to an old man wearing a square scarf beside him: "Mr. Xu, can you tell how good this kid is in martial arts?" Elder Xu nodded and said: "Mr. Bai, this kid is a Langjian swordsman." Door man."
Elder Bai asked: "You mean he is Xie Tianya's disciple?" Elder Xu stroked his beard and said: "That's right. This guy's swordsmanship was personally taught by Xie Tianya. I had fought with Xie Tianya in the early years, so as soon as he used this sword Move, I already guessed about 70%." Elder Bai asked curiously: "Why does this Langjian sect member come to our place to show off his power?"
Elder Xu thought for a while and said: "If he wants to prove his sword skills, there should be many masters outside. Is it possible that he is here to find someone?" A blond elder with blue eyes next to Elder Xu said: "Young people strive for strength. I always have a desire to win, and after learning a little bit of kung fu, I think I am invincible. It is possible to come to us and find some people to try out."
Elder Xu nodded and looked towards the field again. Su Changmao stood up and said to Charlie: "Master, I've had a little too much wine and I need to relieve myself. I'm sorry." Charlie smiled and said: "Brother Su, please help yourself." Su Changmao walked slowly under the guidance of an entourage. Go down the steps.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Xiao Yunfan had defeated three masters. Such strength should not be underestimated. The remaining twelve masters on the field could not help but feel anxious. Xiao Yunfan said loudly: "If you don't fight, will you admit defeat to me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a bald man jumped out. There was an iron ball the size of a bowl hanging from his right wrist. This big man's name was Luo Yuanba. This man had a cruel look on his face and said loudly: "I think you are tired of living, so I will let you taste Uncle Luo's Qiankun Ball." Xiao Yunfan said: "My brother's weapons are strange, don't let me down."
At this time, four more people jumped out, two men and two women. They each held different weapons in their hands. One of the two men held a crescent halberd, the other held a chain knife, and the two women held a soft whip, and the other held a sword. Double hook.
The five people looked at each other and attacked Xiao Yunfan together. The spectators on the field couldn't help but cheer, because such a wonderful duel was rare, and everyone looked at the field intently. No one paid attention to the man in a black cloak standing in the corner. The man raised his left arm, revealing a black barrel from his sleeve.
He was waiting for the right moment to pull the trigger. Xiao Yunfan's expression did not change when being attacked by these five people. He used the scabbard in his hand to use various exquisite moves. A black light turned into a circle and fought with the five weapons inextricably. The six people dodged and jumped, and various vicious moves came one after another. The woman using the double hook sharply cut Xiao Yunfan's lower body, Xiao Yunfan jumped up with both feet and flew over the head of the bald man.
He lifted the scabbard in his hand and pointed it at the back of the crescent halberd-wielding man's head. The big man turned back to block, Xiao Yunfan turned over and stood up, with the scabbard of his sword on the ground. He raised his body several feet and used the move "Canghai Mingyue". His whole body was like a windmill, and he sent moves to five people in mid-air.
The bald man suddenly hit the iron ball. Xiao Yunfan's scabbard hit the chain connecting the iron ball and immediately pulled it out. The iron ball suddenly changed direction and hit the bald man himself. With a click, the iron ball hit the man's chest, and he broke an unknown number of ribs. Blood spurted out from his mouth and he fell backwards.
Xiao Yunfan's scabbard moved like the wind, shuttling back and forth between the remaining four people. There were several jingling sounds, two silver hooks flew into the air, the chain knife was stuck on the ground, the crescent halberd was also broken, and the long whip was like a dead snake. Usually falls on the ground. The four people's faces were ashen, and each fell to the ground gasping for air.
Seeing this, the other seven people rushed over again. In the battle just now, Xiao Yunfan also suffered a lot of injuries, and his clothes were dyed red with blood. He panted, stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and looked at fourteen pairs of hungry wolf-like eyes looking at him.
After a hundred moves, there were screams of ouch and ouch, and the seven people also fell down. Xiao Yunfan was half-kneeling on the ground holding the scabbard of his sword, sweat dripping from his forehead, and looking at his opponent who fell on the ground. At this time, there were thunderous cheers outside the stadium. Xiao Yunfan managed to stand up straight with a smile on his lips. His eyes went to the stand where Madame Rose sat.
Amidst the cheers of the crowd, the man in the black cloak pressed the trigger. With a bang, the grain of iron sand hit Xiao Yunfan's chest. He swayed twice and fell backward. The moment he fell, everything in front of him turned blood red.
Several people at the elders' table could clearly see that someone was plotting against Xiao Yunfan. Elder Xu waved his sleeves, flew up, pointed in the direction of the black cloaked man's escape and shouted: "Quickly intercept that man, don't let him escape."
