Mao Man knew Yang Zhen's physique, and even more so that Yang Zhen was a fighting maniac. He smiled and said, "I believe that when the time comes, the martial arts association will definitely fulfill Brother Yang's wish."
Although Mao Man has never participated in a martial arts meet, Mao Man also knows that there will be countless strong men and geniuses who will appear in the martial arts meet.
"But brother Yang Zhen, the dangers in the martial arts competition will become countless. I only hope that brother Yang Zhen can turn the dangers into good fortune." Mao Man said seriously.
"I think I will." Yang Zhen felt Mao Man's friendship and said with firm eyes.
"After the top eight, there will be a buffer period for the eight strong men to recover, gain insights, and improve their own cultivation. Then there will be a real decisive battle."
Mao Man took out eight stones in his hand and placed them on the table.
"Come on, look, this represents the top eight."
"Eight to two, there are six left, and then the next step will be more cruel." Mao Man pointed to the six stones on the table, separated them two by two, and then said: "This round, it will be six to three."
"Six to three?" Even Yang Ning couldn't sit still. The previous rules had become a lot looser, but he didn't expect that this time he would be so cruel and just split it into two.
"Yes, cultivation is a road against heaven, a road full of thorns. This is equivalent to the last step of a strong man. As long as you step out, you will be reborn."
Mao Man seemed to have his own cultivation experience, which surprised Yang Ning. She looked at Mao Man, hoping that he could continue talking.
"Yes, if you take one step, there is no turning back." Mao Man sighed in his next sentence.
"You..." Yang Ning said.
But he was interrupted by Mao Man, saying: "Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. Next, let's talk about the martial arts club."
"The top three are as simple as two and two, and the real number one will be determined in the end."
"What if all three of them win one and lose one?" Yang Ning immediately saw the flaw in the rules, because it would be an endless cycle.
"This kind of situation has never happened before. One win and one loss is indeed cruel." Mao Man was recalling the situation at that time.
"After one win and one loss, a rule will appear in Martial Arts City."
"Martial Arts City?" Even the hero asked in surprise.
"Yes, Martial Arts City. This is why I suspect that Martial Arts City was created by Yueya Holy Land."
"Because of this kind of rule, I listen to Yue Ya very much..." Mao Man said, as if he suddenly had a bad taste, and smiled mysteriously.
"What do you mean?" Although Yang Ning knew Tingyueya in his previous life, he had never been in contact with it. However, Tingyueya can be called one of the top ten holy places on the mainland, and its status is only a little lower than Tiandao Sect. Naturally It has its own extraordinary heritage.
"I remember that time... I remember that time... Hey, why are you talking about this? I think this situation should not happen in this martial arts meeting. One win and one loss. The strength of the three means that they are very close. .”
"I believe that with your strength and your sword, this situation will never happen." Even Mao Man was a little afraid of Yang Ning's sword.
"If you say that, you are sure that I will become the last three?" Yang Ning knew his own strength, but the world is so big and there are so many truly strong people.
"I believe Brother Yang." Mao Man said lightly.
"Hey, this is too sad for you." Yang Zhen looked at the two of them speechlessly. He originally introduced the rules of the martial arts club, but then he talked about the top three, and said that Yang Ning must If he could enter the top three, Yang Zhen would be very dissatisfied.
"Brother Yang Zhen, you are also very strong, but I have also observed your fighting style. You are very strong, but maybe due to experience, your killing aura is still a little lacking." Mao Man clicked with one word. Show Yang's real shortcomings.
Even Yang Ning didn't notice anything wrong with Yang Zhen's fight at the time, but when he heard Mao Man say this, he instantly understood.
The Wushuang Jue is indeed a powerful technique, but Yang Ning has overlooked a very important thing, that is, Yang Zhen's physique, Blue Hegemony, is domineering, while Wushuang has a free and easy look.
With the combination of the two directions, Yang Zhen's murderous aura was naturally much weaker.
"Hmph, I will definitely enter the top three." Yang Zhen's eyes showed a domineering and unparalleled aura.
"I also hope that you will definitely enter the top three." Yang Ning said to Yang Zhen.
"However, I got a piece of news here."
"What news?" Yang Pi asked.
"Red Lotus Dynasty." Mao Man said.
"Red Lotus Dynasty?" Yang Ning was confused.
"Yes, the Red Lotus Dynasty." Mao Man continued: "The Red Lotus Dynasty is one of the four major dynasties in our five states. It is very powerful. Even our Liangzhou is also under the rule of the Red Lotus Dynasty."
"And the top eight in this martial arts association will enter the core of the Red Lotus Dynasty and rise to prominence from then on." Even Mao Man was full of expectations when he mentioned the Red Lotus Dynasty.
"You mean, the Red Lotus Dynasty will also participate in this martial arts meeting?" Yang Ning heard it.
"They are not participating. They are just intercepting the fruits of the Budokai in the end so that the Red Lotus Dynasty can continue to be strong. This will also make the Red Lotus Dynasty's rule stronger."
"It's a pity that no matter how powerful the Red Lotus Dynasty is, it will never be able to get out of the Western Wilderness and be with Yueyaya Pingmei." Mao Man sighed, his attitude towards the Red Lotus Dynasty was very complicated.
"It seems that Ting Yue Ya's rule over Xihuang is deeply rooted." Yang Zhen said.
Yang Ning couldn't help but think of the Saint Tingyue Ya whom he saw in Qingming Town.
"It is said that there is another holy land in the Western Wasteland. However, compared to Tingyueya, this holy land is more mysterious. Almost no one has heard of it. I wonder if Brother Mao has heard of it?" Yang Ning asked tentatively, After all, very few of the top ten holy places in the mainland are known to ordinary people.
"Another holy land?" Not only Mao Man, but also Yang Zhen and others were puzzled.
"Who in the entire Western Wilderness doesn't know that Tingyue Ya is the holy land in the Western Wilderness and the only holy land. But what do you think, Yang Ning, that there is another holy land in the Western Wilderness?" the hero asked.
"I've heard about it too, but I don't know much about it, but now it seems that Brother Mao has probably never heard of it." Yang Ning was already sure that Mao Man definitely didn't know about another holy land.
"No." Mao Man nodded.
Yang Ning was somewhat embarrassed. After all, he was the only one who knew such secret things, which already explained some problems.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on Yang Ning.
It made Yang Ning somewhat uncomfortable.
"Actually, I just heard about it." Yang Ning knew that now was not the time to reveal his secret, so he continued: "My father said a lot when I left, including these secrets."
Yang Ning had no choice but to attribute the incident to his father, Yang Shengfeng.
Yang Ning could only apologize to Yang Shengfeng and take the blame for him.
"Uncle Yang?" Yang Pi was also very surprised.
Yang Shengfeng had already left Yangjiacun before its destruction. No one knew where he went. This was the first time Yang Pi and others heard Yang Shengfeng's name after leaving Yangjiacun.
"Uncle Yang didn't know why he left Yangjiacun at the beginning, but now it seems that Uncle Yang is very mysterious and knows all the secrets." Yang Zhenda said briefly.
"My father left because of my mother." Yang Ning said.
"Aunt Yang?" It was only then that Yang Zhen and Yang Pi discovered that Yang Ning's mother had always been a mystery.
"Well, my mother is a saint from an overseas holy land." Yang Ning said casually, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Let's focus on the martial arts association first."
Yang Zhen and Yang Pi took a deep look at Yang Ning. Although Yang Ning walked with them all the way, Yang Ning seemed to have always been mysterious, especially the Wushuang Jue practiced by Yang Zhen, which was a top skill. At that time, Yang Ning There was no explanation as to why there was such a powerful technique. Now it seems that this technique has something to do with Yang Ning's mother.
For a moment, the voice in the front hall faded.
After a long silence, Yang Ning was the first to speak: "Brother Mao, what is going on with the Li family and the Zhou family in Liangzhou City?" Yang Ning wanted to know this very much.
"The Li family and the Zhou family?" Mao Man said: "The Li family and the Zhou family have been feuding for many years, but many years ago, the Zhou family designed to kill the son of the head of the Li family."
"It turns out that the Zhou family and the Li family still have such grudges. No wonder the Li family reacted like this that day. Now it seems that if we want to deal with the Zhou family, we have to contact the Li family..."
Yang Ning has already begun to calculate in her heart. Yang Ning lamented that sometimes, he really doesn't look like a swordsman. Maybe it's because of his rebirth, or maybe because he didn't know people well in his previous life and has been feeling guilty. In short, Yang Ning is very careful in this life and is always careful. Don't dare to make a mistake every step of the way.
"Destroy the Zhou family?" Mao Man was surprised.
"Yes, the Zhou family must be destroyed." Yang Pi had a blade exposed on his body.
"Yes, the Zhou family must be destroyed." A blood-red sword appeared in Yang Ning's hand.
"Why?" Mao Manke witnessed with his own eyes the grudges between Yang Ning's group and the Zhou family. He was just a young master of the Zhou family. Based on the fuss that Yang Ning and his group made that day at the Zhou family, it could be said that they had already avenged themselves. How could they return the favor? Don’t let the Zhou family go.
"Because I need to grow, and my sword needs to grow."
"My sword also needs to grow." Yang Pi also said at the same time.
"Actually, I should have thought of it." Mao Man looked at Yang Ning and guessed another side of Yang Ning's character, that is, he must retaliate.
In fact, this is also a common problem among swordsmen.
Otherwise, the Green Sword King would not have provoked Yang Ning rashly that day and was humiliated by Yang Zhen.
This is also due to the vindictive character of Qingjian King Yaizhen. Because he did not accept the title of Sword King, he hated Yang Ning and provoked Yang Ning.
In fact, it is also a kind of pride, arrogant pride.
The same goes for swordsmen.
There was never any intention of bypassing the Zhou family on the hero's face.
It was precisely because Mao Man figured this out that he said that.
"Brother Yang, what should we do?" Mao Man continued.
"Brother Mao, you'd better not get involved in this matter." Yang Ning knew that their group had already troubled Mao Man enough. If the Zhou family was destroyed and the Mao family was involved, it would probably bring unnecessary trouble to the Mao family. trouble.
Since Mao Man admits that they are friends, Yang Ning will not let Mao Man get involved in danger again, let alone let the Mao family fall into an irreversible situation.
Mao Man naturally understood Yang Ning's thoughts and didn't talk too much.
"After a long time of disturbance, we took our leave." Yang Ning said.
"Be careful." Mao Man naturally knew that Yang Ning wanted to contact the Li family at this moment, because the grievances between the Li family and the Zhou family would be completely intensified by Yang Ning and his party, and would be brought to the surface.
Yang Ning and his party left Mao's house.
Liangzhou City has become boiling.
There were only five days left in the martial arts fair, and countless geniuses began to pour into Liangzhou City.
"King Jian Heng left a sword on the Liangzhou city wall."
"King Jianheng? The second place in the last King's Palace?"
"it's him."
"I didn't expect that such a character would appear..."
"King Jianheng, I'm afraid I'm here because of that sword king."
"A sword is used vertically and horizontally, and a horizontal sword will kill you. The king of horizontal swords, this is the sword he is best at, provoking all the swordsmen in the world."
"With one sword, his skills surpass all swordsmen. King Jianheng's ambition is not small."
"Boom..." Just as these people were discussing, a loud noise came from the sky.
"what sound?"
"Chengtou, it's the city's head."
"Go and have a look..."
For a time, countless cultivators flocked to the city wall on the streets.
