The setting sun was setting in the west, and half of the sky seemed to be covered with a curtain of blood.
Zhuque Street, in front of the public notice wall.
People are leaving and coming all the time.
Crowded.
Meng Xiaochuan and Gu Chensha have returned.
"You actually dare to rank me eleventh." Meng Xiaochuan gritted his teeth, his eyes red.
When he was at Hongxiu Tower, he was lucky enough to think that the scroll sent by Mother Liu might be a fake.
At this moment, seeing the ranking on his name, his heart was completely cold and his anger boiled.
"Conspiracy."
Gu Chensha stared at the top ten names on the Fuyao list with cold eyes.
For a time, he thought of many things.
Ranking Chu Xiu at the top of the list will attract enemies from all directions; ranking Meng Xiaochuan at the eleventh will definitely take the initiative and wash away the shame.
Those talented people who have been squeezed out of the rankings are not easy to deal with.
"Let's go." Gu Chensha whispered.
Meng Xiaochuan turned around and squeezed out of the crowd with a cold face and said nothing. He seemed to be out of touch with the world.
One side is noisy, the other side is lonely.
Walking alone on Zhuque Street, Meng Xiaochuan gradually calmed down.
"The way to wash away shame is very simple." Meng Xiaochuan sneered.
Gu Chensha, who had been walking behind Meng Xiaochuan, moved his eyes slightly and said slowly: "It is indeed very simple."
Just beat anyone in the top ten.
Chu Xiu and Zuo Chong came from a distance.
Meng Xiaochuan frowned.
"Are you here specifically to compliment me on my failure?" Meng Xiaochuan said coldly.
Chu Xiu approached, smiled reservedly, and said, "What? Are you jealous?"
"I'm jealous of your sister!" Meng Xiaochuan glared.
Chu Xiu said leisurely: "It seems that your mentality is really broken."
"If you say anything again, I will go crazy." Meng Xiaochuan gritted his teeth and his eyes turned red again.
"Brother Chu, stop irritating Brother Meng." Gu Chensha said helplessly. He felt that what Meng Xiaochuan needed most at this moment was comfort.
"Let's talk somewhere else."
Chu Xiu glanced around and saw that many people on Zhuque Street were already looking this way.
The four of them left Zhuque Street together.
"Where are you going?" Meng Xiaochuan asked in a muffled voice on the way.
Chu Xiu said: "I often come to the inn."
"What to do?" Meng Xiaochuan asked.
Chu Xiu said: "Help you recognize the reality."
Meng Xiaochuan frowned and said coldly: "What do you mean?"
Chu Xiu said no more.
"Recognize the reality..." Gu Chensha was thoughtful.
Arrive outside Changlai Inn.
"'Hanging'?" Meng Xiaochuan glanced at the plaque and was stunned.
"I'm still in the mood to watch 'Dang'. It seems that my mentality has not completely collapsed." Chu Xiu chuckled and walked into the inn.
"Asshole." Meng Xiaochuan's face darkened.
The four of them walked through the inn lobby and came to the backyard of the inn.
The backyard is very spacious and suitable for martial arts performances.
"Ranked eleventh, what do you think?" Chu Xiu stopped and turned to look at Meng Xiaochuan.
Gu Chensha and Zuo Chong also looked at Meng Xiaochuan.
Meng Xiaochuan said in a low voice: "What do you think I should think?"
Chu Xiu said: "Old Tianji is very insidious. He must have known that ranking you eleventh would offend you, but he still ranked you eleventh. Do you guess why?"
Meng Xiaochuan frowned and sneered: "You also think I'm not as good as you?"
Chu Xiu didn't answer. He looked at Gu Chensha and said, "Brother Gu, do me a favor."
Gu Chensha hesitated for a moment. He already understood what Chu Xiu wanted him to do.
"Don't worry, it's not just you." Chu Xiu smiled, "I have sent people to contact Huitong, Wen Yi, and Jingyun."
Gu Chensha's face softened and he nodded, "Okay."
Meng Xiaochuan also thought about it, and his face became extremely livid.
"Brother Gu was once the ninth on the Fuyao List..." Chu Xiu looked at Meng Xiaochuan, "Try and see if you can defeat Brother Gu."
Meng Xiaochuan sneered: "I treat you as a brother. Is this how you see me?"
"If I didn't treat you as a brother, you wouldn't be here." Chu Xiu said calmly, "If you want to slap Tianji Pavilion in the face, you need to recognize yourself first.
Don't you have the confidence to defeat the former No. 9 on the Fuyao list? "
"Hmph, why bother defeating Brother Gu? Why don't we just defeat you?" Meng Xiaochuan sneered.
Chu Xiu smiled.
"Why are you laughing? I don't deserve to fight you?" Meng Xiaochuan was angry.
Chu Xiu shook his head and said seriously: "You know me. A pretentious leader like me will definitely not take action easily. Unless you can defeat Brother Gu, Huitong, Jingyun, and Wen Yi in a row, I That’s why I’ll fight you.”
"..."
Gu Chensha and Zuo Chong both had a strange look in their eyes.
Standing on the railing on the second floor on the east side, the landlady who had been watching the scene in the courtyard was speechless.
Meng Xiaochuan's face darkened, he glared at Chu Xiu, and rushed over.
"Brother Gu." Chu Xiu didn't move, he just shouted 'Brother Gu'.
Gu Chensha had no choice but to immediately block in front of Chu Xiu and punch Meng Xiaochuan who was attacking.
"Get out of the way." Meng Xiaochuan roared and punched.
"boom."
The two fists collided directly, making a dull sound.
Neither of them retreated.
Meng Xiaochuan calmed down.
He punched angrily, using at least 80% of his power, but the ancient sand in front of him remained motionless and was not affected at all.
"The strength of your fists is insubstantial. Have you been wasting your energy on women recently?" Chu Xiu sneered.
Meng Xiaochuan's face turned red, he glared, and immediately struck Gu Chensha with his left hand.
The fight resumes.
Gu Chensha did not dodge, but kept receiving Meng Xiaochuan's fist forcefully.
In the courtyard, the sound of fists sounded dull.
The two figures kept intersecting, and dust was flying.
Chu Xiu and Zuo Chong had already retreated under the eaves on the east side.
"This bastard, I'm afraid he really spent these days on a woman's belly." Chu Xiu was speechless.
Having traveled eight thousand miles along the way, he had a pretty good understanding of Meng Xiaochuan's strength.
"The foundation is very good." Zuo Chong commented in a low voice.
Chu Xiu sighed: "At this time, there is no need to save face for him."
Zuo Chong smiled and said nothing more.
He was not familiar with Meng Xiaochuan.
"Brother Gu, it's okay." Chu Xiu said.
"Asshole." Meng Xiaochuan cursed in a low voice and made a powerful fist mark.
Gu Chensha's face was expressionless, and black evil aura emerged from his right fist, hitting Meng Xiaochuan directly.
"boom!"
The fists clashed, causing a roar.
Meng Xiaochuan's expression changed drastically, and his body retreated uncontrollably.
The ancient sunken sand stands in its original place, motionless.
After retreating one and a half feet, Meng Xiaochuan stopped and his face turned blue and white.
"In terms of skill, you and I are actually pretty much the same." Gu Chensha said solemnly, "What you lack is experience in life-and-death battles and the belief that you will win."
"We have traveled eight thousand miles together. Although we have experienced a lot, we have not actually encountered a real life or death crisis." Chu Xiu said softly, "A few days ago, we were making great progress all the way. When we climbed to Fengming Pavilion, we all looked down upon the geniuses of the Nineteen Prefectures. ”
"The only one ranked eleventh is me." Meng Xiaochuan said in a dull voice.
Chu Xiu smiled and said: "I am ranked first, not because I am strong enough, but just because there are more people who want to kill me."
Meng Xiaochuan was startled and raised his eyes to look at Chu Xiu.
Gu Chensha was thoughtful and glanced at Zuo Chong.
"I am first, you are eleven, we are brothers." Chu Xiu chuckled.
Meng Xiaochuan said in a low voice: "Even so, being number one is better than eleven."
"I'm better than you." Chu Xiu slightly stimulated Meng Xiaochuan.
Meng Xiaochuan's eyes turned red again.
"There's no point in being jealous." Chu Xiu said with a smile, "The day after tomorrow is the day of the general examination. What you have to do now is to become stronger before the final test, and at least beat one of the five of us."
"Brother Chu is right." Gu Chensha looked at Meng Xiaochuan, "If you want to wash away the shame, you can only strengthen yourself."
Meng Xiaochuan calmed down and then became depressed.
"Am I really...not as good as you?" Meng Xiaochuan asked in a muffled voice.
Chu Xiu muttered: "I take more tonics."
Gu Chensha hesitated and said, "I have killed more people."
"I've poisoned people a lot." At this time, a chuckle came from the direction of the inn lobby.
"Amitabha, young monks worship me more."
"I have received more inheritance."
Wen Yi, Huitong, and Jing Yun came one after another.
