The Yunhai Villa in Wutai Mountain is located on the top of a high mountain, deep in the clouds, and surrounded by a sea of pine trees. Although it is not an orthodox sect, it is famous for its immortality. Yukong, the leader of the other courtyard, is an eminent monk who is known as the "Five Wonders" in the world. His prestige is unparalleled. The disciples in the sect are even more outstanding, and their magical power and martial arts are unparalleled in the world.
On this day, Yukong was sitting in the middle of Qingyun Hall, with two disciples in front of him listening to his teachings.
"Li Xuan, you have been practicing with me for more than ten years. You are extremely talented, but not diligent enough. My teacher has higher expectations for you, so you must work harder!"
After speaking, he turned to the young man next to Li Xuan and said, "Wu Ying, you have worked harder recently and made rapid progress. I am very pleased to be my teacher!"
After that, he gave some advice to the two on their practice before waving them to leave.
The two of them were walking in the forest, with birds chirping in the sky, and it was very quiet. Li Xuan was unhappy: "I have worked very hard, but Master always belittles me. I am dissatisfied!"
"Your Highness, you are the one who will inherit the master's mantle in the future. Naturally, he will have higher requirements for you than others!" Wu Ying said this, and Li Xuan suddenly became enlightened.
"You and I are senior brothers, don't call me Your Highness, lest you attract attention!"
"Yes, senior brother!" Wuying replied respectfully.
Li Xuan patted his shoulder lightly: "Although you and I are master's servants, we have grown up together and are as close as brothers. You practice the hardest because you can't let go of the blood feud in your heart. But life cannot be burdened by hatred. You are still young. , you should have the world in mind and make a difference. I only wish you a bright future and never be blinded by hatred!"
Wu Ying was moved by this, "Senior brother taught you the right lesson! Wu Ying's revenge is insignificant. Assisting His Highness and serving the prince is the most important thing in Wu Ying's heart. He never dares to slack off!"
Li Xuan smiled and said: "As you say it, you started to show your loyalty again." At this time, at the end of the mountain forest, there were twists and turns. The Ziyun Palace where they lived was scattered among the mountains.
"I heard that a mysterious person has been visiting in the past few days. Something special may have happened..."
That night, with the moonlight shining through the window lattice and the sound of pine waves, Li Xuan couldn't sleep. His father, the King of Jin, was cautious and prudent in everything he did, but he was suppressed by the prince at every turn. He was in a difficult situation and couldn't move forward. His father sent him here to learn skills so that he could protect himself in times of crisis. Now that the emperor is old and the prince will inherit the throne in the future, the father's situation will be even more difficult.
It's hard to fall asleep because of all the thinking. The drums sounded at midnight on the Qiao tower, and a breeze passed by outside the window. Li Xuan's heart moved. This was unusual. It was the wind of Qinggong leap. But Yunhai Villa was a place of Qingxiu. Who was visiting late at night? Could something happen?
Thinking of this, Li Xuan jumped up and reached the window. Under the moonlight, the figure disappeared into the pine forest. He hurriedly followed, but the body method was extremely fast and had disappeared.
There were shadowy trees and overgrown vegetation in the forest. Li Xuan searched everywhere but couldn't find him. In front of you is Shuiyunjian, and the sound of gurgling water from the waterfall can be heard in your ears. At this time, a figure flashed beside him, and Li Xuan instinctively took action, thrusting his purple sword. The man actually used the same long sword to hold the edge of the sword.
"Senior brother, it's me!" Wu Ying put away his long sword: "I found a night traveler running up the roof, so I chased after him. I didn't expect to meet you, senior brother."
"Someone actually dares to visit Yunhai Villa at night? This is something new that I haven't seen in many years!"
"Is it related to the mysterious man's visit? I will report it to Master and conduct an exhaustive search."
Li Xuan waved his hand to stop him, "The person coming here may not have malicious intentions, so just wait and see what happens!"
In the morning class the next day, no one mentioned the incident about the night walker. The disciples talked a lot and speculated on the purpose of the mysterious man's trip. After the morning class, Senior Brother Yun Tu of Qingyun Academy announced that three disciples from each of Qingyun, Baiyun, Ziyun, Huoyun and Xiangyun will be selected to compete in the ring and a winner will be recommended to serve the imperial court. For a time, all the disciples were eager to try.
Li Xuan was not interested in serving the court and turned around to leave. Yun Tu blocked the way, "I have long heard that Junior Brother Xuan's family is very wealthy. Seeing that you are confident, is this recruitment to the imperial court tailor-made for you?"
Yun Tu has been practicing with his master since he was a child. He is the eldest brother in the first academy. He has the highest status and is used to being arrogant. He always has trouble with Li Xuan.
Li Xuan chuckled and responded: "It turns out that senior brother also wants to be loyal to the imperial court and coincides with me. When the time comes, you must not show mercy!"
Yun Tu sneered and said, "Then I'll have to teach my disciples a clever trick!" The two of them handed over to each other and walked away.
Wuying asked softly: "Senior brother, you have a noble status, and participating in the selection is demeaning your status. Why is this?"
"I can give up when the time comes, but I have to give it my all and never let him succeed easily!"
Wu Ying saw that he was competitive, so he had no choice but to say: "Then I will also sign up and accompany you on the journey."
In the next few days, the disciples from each academy fought against each other. Li Xuan was the best in magic and martial arts in Ziyun Academy. He appeared several times and came back with a complete victory and came out on top. Senior brother Xue Ji ranked second. To his surprise, Wu Ying also broke through and ranked third.
As the disciples from each academy were selected one after another, the battle map of the fifteen disciples was released, and the arena will be set up in Qingyun Academy for a public competition.
Li Xuan didn't care. He only went to fight to dampen Yun Tu's spirit. As for how far he could go, it was completely up to fate. His first opponent was Xiao Zhang from Huoyunyuan, a powerful and heavy-handed player, but Li Xuan was good at movement and sword control, so it would be easy to beat him.
He was about to leave, but he saw Wu Ying staring at the battle map, concentrating on it, so he smiled and said, "Do you also want to be an official in the imperial court?"
Wuying blushed and said sarcastically: "Wuying has been cultivated by the prince and you for many years. It would be great if he could find an official position in the court and serve the prince in the future!"
Li Xuan laughed loudly: "If you and I meet in the ring, I will definitely let you win!"
After several rounds of fighting, Li Xuan easily won and entered the semi-finals. He got what he wanted. He will fight against his senior brother Yun Tu in the next round. Wu Ying, after several rounds of hard fighting and stumbling, reached the top four and met Yue Xing, the top disciple of Xiangyun Academy. Li Xuan felt that his junior brother's diligent study and hard work had made rapid progress in strength, which was a bit unexpected.
The rising sun rose in the east, and all the disciples lined up on both sides of the arena. In the spectator seat, Yukong sat with an old man in brocade clothes. This old man had an ordinary appearance and a stiff face. He was most likely disguised. With a thundering drum sound, the competition began.
The eldest disciple of Xiangyun Academy, Yuexing, is tall and tall, but he looks a little short in comparison. The two of them bowed their hands and saluted, and the more excited they were, they were about to reveal their weapons. Wuying smiled and said: "Senior brother's Lingyun Palm is famous all over the world. I want to learn from it today!"
Li Xuan was secretly surprised. Xiangyun Academy was good at cultivating internal strength, and the Ling Yun Palm was extremely powerful and domineering. Ziyunyuan is good at cultivating qi. If we talk about swordsmanship and sword qi, Wu Ying may not be able to compete with him. Comparing palm strength is simply self-destruction. Why would he use his own shortcomings to attack others' strengths?
The battle began, and Yue Xing quickly gained the upper hand. His palms were like flowing water, powerful and capable of attacking and defending. He was soon forced to dodge left and right, and was overwhelmed. Li Xuan shook his head secretly. If he continued like this, he would definitely be defeated if he didn't use twenty moves.
Yue Xing also wanted to fight quickly and conserve his energy for the decisive battle. When his moves changed, his palms turned snow-white, and the palm shadows were flying all over the sky, dazzling the eyes. This was Lingyun Palm's special move "Breaking Clouds", and the palm shadows were all over the sky, leaving the opponent with no place to hide.
Wu should remain on the defensive and keep retreating, reaching the edge of the ring. Yue Xing saw that the time had come, and the shadow of his palm struck Wuying's chest in two straight lines. Seeing that he could not dodge, Wuying stretched out the fingers of his hands, turned them into swords, and pressed the sword energy against the Laogong point on the opponent's palm. Yue Xing was stabbed in a vital point, as if being bitten by a snake, he suddenly drew back with his palm.
Li Xuan secretly admired this mysterious move, turning his fingers into swords to break the face, which was quite creative.
"Poyun" and Zhijian consumed a lot of energy, and they suddenly separated. There was a brief pause to take a few deep breaths. Yue Xing flew up and launched another big move. From top to bottom, his palm was white and several times larger than usual. It turned into a huge palm that was astonishing, overwhelming the top of Mount Tai, and it was unstoppable.
Before the palm force could reach it, the pressure was overwhelming, and the ring creaked, as if it might collapse at any moment. Li Xuan knew this move, which was called "Turn Over the Clouds". The force of the palm was so powerful that it opened up the world and shook the world.
Wuying still held his finger sword against his palms. The opponent was pressing in the air, and he had an absolute advantage. In addition, he majored in internal strength, and his internal strength became stronger and stronger. In the blink of an eye, Wuying was unable to resist, and the thick pine wood under his feet was damaged. Feet deep.
Li Xuan let out a long sigh in his heart, having already guessed the outcome. He just hoped that his opponent could hold back his palm and not let Wu Ying get hurt. Just when the victory was decided, the black energy around Wu Ying's body extinguished in a flash, and then the sword energy between his fingers exploded, piercing Chuan Xing's palm, and blood spattered.
Yue Xing was in pain, jumped back in a hurry and fell back to the ring. The opponent was already exhausted, so why did he suddenly have the strength to fight back? It’s incredible! He was in a hurry and had no time to think about it. He stretched out his arms, and the white light was dazzling, extending for more than a foot.
He crossed his palms, and the white light flashed across each other, like giant scissors. As soon as his "Cloud Cutting" was launched, Wu Ying had already foreseen this move. He flew to dodge, not retreating but advancing, and he was very close to his opponent. Yue Xing saw him fighting hand to hand and struck with both palms. Wu Ying also met him with both palms, with the four palms close together.
Veins popped up on their faces as they fought with their inner strength. Yuexing was secretly happy. Xiangyunyuan was good at internal cultivation, and he was as good as anyone compared to Neili. After several rounds of fighting, Yuexing gradually gained the upper hand. He pressed forward step by step, but retreated step by step when there was no response, reaching the edge.
The disciples from the two houses below competed with each other to cheer for the players from their own house, and the sound was heard all over the world. A black energy suddenly surged from Wuying's body, and his arms and cheeks turned pitch black. Everyone saw it clearly and were extremely shocked. There was silence in the venue for a while. Wu Ying let out another strange roar, and the black energy spread out. Then the power of his palm surged, and Yue Xing was blown away like a paper kite.
Wu Ying follows him like a shadow, pointing his sword straight at him. Yue Xing was stunned by the huge force and did not know how to dodge. Seeing that the sword was about to pierce his chest, the audience screamed in surprise. At the critical moment, a figure flashed and stood between the two of them. He stabbed the man in the chest with his sword and dissipated like smoke.
