When masters compete with each other, victory or defeat can only be determined by a thought.
Sometimes the skill is inferior to others, sometimes it is insufficient, and sometimes it is taken lightly.
It's not that Murongtian's skills are inferior to others, he and Tang Siji are actually between equals. He is not powerless. Although he is nearly sixty years old, he is still strong and healthy and has no physical discomfort at all. He was just careless and fell into Tang Siji's way, so he was defeated.
In terms of seniority, Murongtian was of the same generation as Tang Mugong and others, and they were Tang Siji's elders. Although Tang Siji was the leader of the Five Heroes of the Tang Sect, in Murongtian's eyes, he was just a junior, and Murongtian didn't take him seriously at all. But the reason why Tang Siji is the leader of the Five Heroes is not just because he is older than the other four, but also because his martial arts is indeed much higher than the other four. Moreover, he is also the only one among the Five Heroes of the Tang Sect who has entered a solitary darkroom to practice.
"The Tang hero is good at martial arts, and the young monk is here to learn from me." The speaker was not a Shaolin monk, but just a young monk in his twenties. His face was so unfamiliar that no one present except the Shaolin monk recognized him, let alone who he was.
Tang Siji originally thought that the Shaolin sect would send an eminent monk named "Wei" to fight, but he didn't expect that it would be such a little-known novice monk. Tang Siji understood that since he dared to challenge him, he must have some real ability, so he did not dare to be careless and asked: "Dare you ask the Master's name?"
"Little Monk Baoli..."
"Little Monk Long Xiang." Before he could speak, someone in the crowd immediately named him.
In recent years, an extraordinary genius has emerged from the Shaolin Temple. He is proficient in almost everything. He has only been in the temple for more than ten years, but he has learned almost all the Shaolin martial arts classics and scriptures one by one. He can truly be called a versatile scholar in both civil and military affairs. At first, no one knew that there was such a young monk in the Shaolin Temple. Until a few years ago, several wandering monks from the Western Regions came to Shaolin to challenge him and defeated more than ten senior Shaolin monks in a row. They were very arrogant. In the end, Little Monk Baoli had no choice but to fight, and defeated several Wandering Monks with only a set of Shaolin dragon-shaped fists. From then on, he became famous in one battle, and was nicknamed the Little Monk of Dragon Phase. After that, Tianxingjian, the leader of the top ten swordsmen, laughed at the moon song. He listened to the rumors in the world and mistakenly believed that the Jade Rakshasa was trapped in the Shaolin Temple by the Shaolin monks, so he broke into Shaolin alone. The Shaolin monks were unbeatable, not even Arhat. The great formation was also broken by Laughing Moon Song. At this time, the young monk Baoli came to the battle again. He laughed wildly and remembered his youth and asked him to move ten times, but Baoli was defeated in the end. However, Kuangxiao Yuege admired this young monk very much and thought of his sincerity, so he believed his words, stopped embarrassing Shaolin, and went down the mountain alone. He also left a message: "The dragon-like young monk is unparalleled in the world. He has transformed into a realm in five years and attained spiritual enlightenment in ten years." It means that in five years, Monk Baoli will be able to become the top master in the world. In ten years, his martial arts will be perfect. Reach the realm of spirituality. Even the best swordsman in the world, Kuangxiao Yuege, concluded that Baoli's martial arts would eventually reach the state of spiritual enlightenment. Naturally, everyone in the world did not believe it, and the name of Longxiang Monk became even more famous.
Monk Baoli is a disciple of Master Wei Nian, the abbot of Shaolin. Wei Nian has always disliked social affairs, so he is very strict with his disciples. Bao Li has never gone down the mountain for more than ten years since he started to learn martial arts. Except for those two times when he fought against others for the safety of Shaolin, he has never taken the initiative to fight with others. However, as long as people in the world know that he once single-handedly defeated Tianxing Sword and Laughed at Yue Ge, no one will dare to look down upon him. This time Master Wei Nian probably also wanted Bao Li to see some of the world, so he asked him to come to Tangmen with Master Wei Jian.
Of course Tang Siji knew about this, and he already felt that this little monk's martial arts had now reached an unfathomable level. Baoli hasn't made any move yet, but his dragon-like temperament is already approaching Tang Siji. This makes Tang Siji feel very unhappy and his energy is also blocked.
Tang Siji had met countless masters in his life, but he had never met an opponent like this before. Sweat was slowly dripping from his palms and forehead.
"Master, please enlighten me," Tang Siji said.
"The benefactor is the senior, so it should be the benefactor who takes action first." Baoli said.
Facing such an opponent who didn't know the details, Tang Siji felt a little guilty and had no chance of winning. He is also a proud and iron-blooded man, and he has never encountered such a situation before. However, it was a fact that he felt guilty now, as evidenced by the sweat on his palms and forehead.
Baoli seemed to see what he was thinking and asked with a smile: "Is the donor nervous?"
Tang Siji was upset by his confession and was a little worried about his face, so he had to attack first, still the Tang Sect's Iron Palm.
Baoli immediately put his palms together and chanted the Buddha's name, but did not move or retreat. When Tang Siji came closer, he suddenly used his palm and started to attack Tang Siji directly. Tang Siji's iron palm was originally very powerful, but now he had the upper hand. Logically speaking, he should have the upper hand. But Baoli's palm was really extraordinary. When he struck it out, his palm power was like a war dragon galloping across the wilderness, with the potential to swallow clouds, spit out mist, and destroy sculls.
Everyone only heard a dragon roar and saw that Tang Siji had been entangled by two dragon-shaped energy, and his figure quickly retreated.
Tang Si took five steps back and finally stood still. The blood in his chest was surging, but Bao Li was still fighting on the spot, with his palms clasped together, as if he had never moved.
After one move, the decision is made.
Before Bao Li could make his move, Tang Siji immediately shouted: "Master, stop."
Baoli asked: "Why?"
Tang Si continued: "There is no need to compete, Tang has already lost this game."
Tang Siji and Bao Li only exchanged palms. Although they suffered some hidden losses, they were not really defeated. But Tang Siji was an upright man. After one move, he already knew that he had no chance of winning, so he stopped fighting with him. What's more, he has three opponents next, and he must retain his energy.
"One to one." Yu Qian smiled.
"A poor nun comes to pick up the great trick from Tang Daxia." This time it was Mei Lu from the Emei sect.
Seeing that her husband had already fought twice, Bai Bing was a little out of breath, and had suffered a loss at the hands of Bao Li, so he wanted to let her husband rest for a while, and stood up and said: "A good man will not fight with a woman, I will take my place in this round." My boss took the call."
Everyone knew that Tang Siji and his wife had a deep relationship and always advanced and retreated together. At this time, no one objected. Bai Bing has already said that "good men don't fight with women", which means that Tang Siji is not good at fighting with women, but it is also reasonable. Of course Yu Qian knew what Bai Bing was thinking. When he wanted to refute, he couldn't find a reason for a while.
Mei Lu smiled and said: "The White Female Hero wants to teach me, that's the best thing."
Bai Bing said politely: "I hope Master will show mercy."
"Easy to say."
